I will not completely claim that gambling is not worth it neither will the recent winner of the Super Ball lottery jackpot who won nearly $600 M. It is only worth it when you eventually win the money other than that, its simply a waste of time and money.

I will tell you the problems of gamblers, I want to tell you why most of the gambling are not getting profit from gambling. The cause that every gambler always lost his money because he never wants to leave gambling and he has the greed for more winning if he wins a little. This greed took him to the worst situation and he leaves the game when he has nothing left. This is not right otherwise you will never save money.

I don't think this has anything to do with greed. If it were, after losing a little here and there, a truly greedy person would stop gambling and walk away because this very greed would prevent him from losing any more. In other words, his greed would make him loathe gambling in a short while. I suspect we should rather talk here about gambling addiction, which is not particularly different from, for example, alcohol or drug addiction.

Does greed have anything to do with these?

I think you're wrong. A greedy person will not stop there because he is greedy. He would always want more than what he has. It's an insatiable hunger to more money. No matter how much money he has made, he will still gamble and the only way to stop that is to lose all of his wallet balance. Have you ever seen someone in a gambling site who won a lot but then continued to gamble and ended up losing all of his earning as well as his original bankroll.

I don't really see how you disprove my point. A greedy person will not stop if he is winning, not losing. Obviously, he would want more and more, but if he is losing it is clear as shit that gambling will leave him in rugs. If a person is hungry he will go where he can actually satiate his hunger. He will not stay where he is being starved and where he is being made even hungrier. Of course, if you first start winning, you will definitely look for more, but it is your wins that make you greedy, not your losses.

Your losses would discourage you from gambling if it was just about greed alone.

Gambling should not be look at as form of earning opportunity in the first place, winning in gambling most of the time depends in pure luck and possibility of losing specially online gambling is always more than winning considering the house edge and other factor. Lucky enough, person can be rags to riches just gambling overnight but can also be the other way around if bad lucks strike. Gambling don't hurt much unless a player know how to control himself.

No one gambles for the sake of entertainment alone, they can go to the movies and musical concerts if entertainment is the only that they seek. Making money is the prime motivator for every gambler. Without that the industry is going to collapse with entertainment is the only thing they can offer in return.

fucking hell to house edge. this is especially felt if a successive defeat that struck. causing all wealth to go bankrupt within one night. and it feels very painful when capital and the results of victory are taken in a very short time. gambling is an extremely frightening thing when defeat comes. self-control alone is not enough to overcome this

Actually gambling is a form for entertainment where you go, play game, spend time for yourself and just enjoy. But as it involves money the greed is what drives the people to go after it. Thus it is very harmful from the perspective of people going after money and will end up losing a lot than winning.

I think it's not greed that it started all those addictions but rather the human body. Whenever you do drugs, you end up wanting more and more. It's like the dosage has to go higher for you to have the same amount of joy that you had in your previous session. This is why others are needing more alcohol/drugs than other to feel something. And when you stopped for a week, you will only require a small amount of alcohol/drugs to feel something. This is the reason why people end up drinking a lot of alcohols every single day or tons of weed per day.

The same thing is applicable to gambling addiction. Before, you might be betting 100 bits per round and it starts to grow even though you keep no losing money whenever you go to a gambling site.

Actually gambling has no good effect even if they say that for entertainment purpose only, what if you lose do you think it will be okay for you? No, right? Because you will do everything inorder to retrieve all of those money that you lost. However, it is still depend on us on how we will manage our time and money upon it.

I think that in most of the culture and society look gambling in a good sense. A gambler has a bad reputation in the community and overall people don’t like gambling and gambler as well. That’s why a gambler has never benefited from gambling. When something is not good how you can take benefit from that. I want all the people to leave gambling and work hard to earn money and not from gambling.

If you take gambling as a way to generate constant daily profit than it is not worth to gamble because you will never get profit always. Actually gambling with amount more than you can afford to lose is pretty foolish move.

Gambling should be considered as way to get entertained.

Yes you're right. Gambling is not a way to make money or to earned profit it is for people who seek enjoyment, who seek happiness, and who want to relieve their stress. So to be able for you to make gambling worth it then you must enjoy it without thinking about the money but rather thinking the happiness that you will get

yes that is a fact those people who play gambling always lose and never win big money. Gambling should not be the way of making money and spend whole life playing gambling at all, because the end of gambling is always terrible and the gamblers comes to the road with empty pockets and then they have cannot lead a normal life but always facing financial crises. It is better to play as much as you afford.

If you want to profit from gambling, then you can only get a little profit for your extra income, not for your basic income. So do not use too much money, do not use money that can not afford to lose, just use a little money so if you're lucky you get extra income and if you're unlucky, it will not interfere with your basic income.

For recreational gamblers, I think what you say is applicable. But for those who have been in the game for so long, they used all the money they can afford to gambling, I mean everything. They have even the nerves to borrow from someone just to continue there gambling habits. Been there, done that. It's really hard to control the money that you are going to throw on gambling.

Many people here are asking "How gambling can benefits us by winning" on it using strategy like Martingale, or pure luck when we are playing DICE?
But I'm just wondering when do people will realize that gambling can never be the one that could benefits us, because the truth is, we could lose the thing that we can't lose to afford before we could be benefited by gambling.

It depends on each person, I knew from the beginning that gambling was going to make me lose money but I play for the fun, then there are people that have illusions of making money with gambling they realize their mistake when they lose a big amount of money and then there are some that never learn that lesson.

That's how gambling works, we only win by chances and really no assurance. Its worth it for those people who win a lot but for those who loose money its a nightmare. People think gambling is about winning, but in reality gambling is about controlling of your emotion that's the hardest thing to do aside from winning.

Agree, mostly of the lossing a lot of money and about lossing in a game is cant able to control your self and emotions because a lot of people who tend to lose a lot is really those people is really greedy to the money and winnings but tend up lossing more. Gambling is all about controlling your self because if you cant then you will really broke a lot, though gambling is not for everyone because it only chooses those lucky one.

If the mindset is to win loads and loads of money then gambling really is not worth it. But if you see it as any other game, and just enjoy it, limit your input, limit your time then everything seems right.
Its not that bad. The reputation have gone down because of the addicts and their severe losses which makes people think that same is going to happen with everyone. Its not like that. Take it as a game, and enjoy it, dont get addicted, and rest all is worth it.

why not? of course yes gambling is also the key to win a verry verry huge amount of cash in a quicker way although the chances is pretty small when compared to other known methods however you might consider playing it in a smart way like for example betting in only at once and then leave the gambling scene if you won at once in order for you to secure your winnings and at the same time avoid getting hooked or addicted on it.

majority of gambling is not bad but there were still few that is actually bad or illegal. the reputation of gambling is down not because of the people who are addicted to it but for those who are doing it in a wrong way like for example doing it in a restricted are (e.g classrooms , public places like church , malls , restaurants , etc )

Certain people have different mind set or tolerance when it comes to gambling, vast gamblers who are addict to gambling doesnt realize the fact that it wont be beneficial for them in the long run to gamble, they just want to profit and enjoy what they do leading to them to addiction.

Quote from: thisappointed on March 28, 2017, 08:56:39 AM

we could lose the thing that we can't lose to afford before we could be benefited by gambling.

True, there are certain implication that gambling will lead to losing your family,friends,jobs or even going to jail for excessive loan due to gambling addiction, some people doenst thing about those things as long as they can gamble and realizing their their mistake is way too late.

it is really hard to control our emotion especially we have a chance to win but this could help us at least we can save our money from losing in the game. and if someone could win in the lottery jackpot, I think it's because, in that time, he has a luck so his number is out as the winner but he cannot depend on his luck in all time because no one will know when the luck has come.
