Topic: Not everyone deserves to hear of your winning in gambling. - page 8. (Read 2605 times)

I noticed two things when you tell others

First, if you intend to do something, you will not do it by simply telling people about it.

Secondly, there are 3 people who come when you tell them something.
-Who listens to you and does not know what you are talking about and has no intention of knowing?
-Someone who listens to you just wants to know about you and your projects
-Who listens to you to know all your steps and likes it when he hears that you failed at something

The bottom line is, do not tell anyone about your successful or failed steps and projects, as there are those who envy you even for the oxygen in your lungs.

.
That's a good point. You never know who is sincere with you and who has their personality and reality masked in front of you but aren't well-wishers of you, so it's not advisable to share every single thing and every joy with every person you know. You don't even know if your close friends are sincere with you or not, and anyone can have evil eyes for your joys, which is why, it's better if you keep such things to yourself.

When we talk about gambling, some people generally don't think very well about it, so when you share that you've won something from gambling, they might show that they are happy for you at first, but there will surely be discussion about how you are indulged in gambling and that maybe you are an addict.

I agree, I can understand why some people may boast about the win they got online, but there is a reason why many lottery winners decide to hide their names, and why even bitcoin holders prefer to not advertise to others they do it, and this is because you can attract a lot of unwanted attention from the wrong people if you do this.

So if the win was high enough for you to boast about, it is also big enough to generate envy and for others to covet it.

Gambling wins might feel like navigating a minefield of emotions. Like you, I've noticed envy is natural. Not only the money, but the what-ifs and could-have-beens. We unknowingly reflect others' unrealized goals when we share our wins. The pill is hard to take, right?

Please note that sharing your achievement can demonstrate the unpredictable thrill of gaming. The spice of chance makes each journey distinct, even though we live identical lives. Envy and inspiration are inevitable. Arent you limiting someone's dreams by keeping your win private?

Share at your own discretion. But remember, in the big drama of life, every win and loss affects humanity. Your narrative may inspire someone else to gamble, giving them hope, fun, or an exciting risk.

It's commonly said that money loves silence. And if you talk a lot, you can scare away good luck. If everyone knows that a person is successful, he will be greatly envied and will wish various bad things. There will also be a temptation to borrow money without repayment or simply robbed. So here, of course, everyone does as he wants, but still silence is gold.

I don't think you need to tell many people about the win you got unless those people are very close to you so they can feel the pleasure you got and you can celebrate it with them. If we tell many people, they will be jealous of our win so they can do something about us. Instead of taking bad or other risks that we don't know about, we should anticipate these things so that we can still enjoy the winning money and only tell some people who are very close to us. Yes, we don't know how many people sincerely share the pleasure and joy of the win we get, so we must be careful in sharing our win.

No mate, he just said that we should be careful on sharing our winning stories. Even not in gambling, the same scenario can still be applied, so we should think twice by now if we are that type of person.

A win does sound positive but not all are happy about it because they think it was not enough to compensate their previous losses. For those who are, it's not always necessary to talk about it to others. Just enjoy it on your own. It may sound selfish but it's better than if we can harm other people.

Those who are about to quit gambling, if they are truly committed they won't be affected by these things. They can even think that the person is only lying.

I sometimes wonder if I should even tell anyone about winning. Because I noticed that even from those closest to me, many people experience irresistible envy. They want to have the same winnings and will dispose of them as they wish; there is a feeling that the winnings are close to them. They are visited by the thought that they are no different from us, we live in the same area, we eat the same food. These are stupid thoughts based on envy. There will always be someone who wins, and 20 players sitting next to each other will win absolutely nothing. And of course they will have bad thoughts in their heads and wonder why he won and we didn’t. For these reasons, I don’t want to talk about the win, because there will be almost no people who are sincerely happy about it.

That is the purpose of hiding big wins so that someone can avoid problems that could arise from their relationships. People often do not show envy towards other people, but they often show it behind that person's back when they talk about things that they don't like. This will, of course, cause disputes between them, so this must be avoided. By hiding his winnings from many people, he can enjoy them for himself and his family or invite some of his closest people to enjoy them. But it would be better only to share the victory story with people who understand it so that no problems arise. We determine who should know about the wins we get so we can be careful about all problems.

Well, not everyone will indeed be happy for you when you tell them about your achievements and a lot of people might have evil eyes which can affect the overall results of what you are doing. So, you should keep your achievements to yourself so that they are safe from the evil eyes of the world.

People often get excited when they achieve something, especially when it comes to gambling or trading, because they become extremely happy when they win or earn something and they want to share that excitement with others but that isn't always a good thing to do, especially if the person hearing about your achievement isn't your well-wisher and they envy you from inside while might be friendly on your face, most people are like that in the world.

Nice. It's okay to share, who knows, maybe it will boost the confidence of another gambler that he makes a goal the same as you.
IMO, it's not always a negative thing. There are people who like reading positive vibes and winning a big multiplier is not like being boastful about it but telling other people that it can happen. I mean, it's not impossible which other gamblers think.

Also, it gives a chance to the one who will share it to inform others that they can do it too. Why? Because he is a legitimate player and not a streamer who might have a rigged system while he is recording his playtime.
Many don't believe those anymore but when the information comes to the gambler itself, then it's easier to be believed by other players especially those who have not yet experienced those huge multipliers in their entire life of playing whatever the game it is.
Yes, I think it will satisfy both the gambler who shared and the one who will read it. It's a big proof that it can happen to anyone.

Yesterday I read in another topic (sorry, I'm writing from my smartphone and cannot find it right now) a member who said that he told some friends that he was into Bitcoin, in order to encourage them, and they started calling him "Mr. Bitcoin" and such things, and he regretted having told them anything because people who hear that usually think that everyone who is into Bitcoin is rich, and he was a bit worried about his safety.

With gambling it's the same, I guess: if someone wins big, it's better not to tell it to anyone, if you want to stay, or at least feel, safe. Envy is really bad.

If we talk about losses, maybe the losses are big, but they don't tell you about it and only share the winnings, so we don't know how big the losses are. Yes, it is natural for them to share their winnings so that it is possible for other members to feel motivated to get their big wins. But they should remember that slot games can cost them all their money without them realizing it because they will be curious about the results they receive and still want to chase big wins. After all, it is rare for people to get big wins continuously, especially in slot games, unless they really have more luck than others.

winning will bring people to ask you for money. invite criminals to crime to you. and if you don't get what you want, aka money from you. you will be talked about the badness of him, he is a gambler, which will damage your reputation in the community.
So if you win gambling, just enjoy it for fun, no need to publicize it.

Telling people or social media about your winnings can indeed be dangerous, especially if the winnings are big, your house could be robbed or your friends steal your money secretly, sometimes financial matters can give someone evil thoughts if they have the opportunity. To get it, remember that thieves come when they have the opportunity and no doubt those closest to us can also do it, so it's better to hide our winnings to ourselves or just give them to our family rather than having to tell the public, let alone social media.

Yes, sharing it on the forum is no problem because we can all share stories and experiences when gambling and most forum people also share stories of their losses and wins here so it will be safe because we don't know each other and the forum is anonymous. Indeed, being able to win at gambling is a satisfying and enjoyable result, therefore many people want to share their winning stories on this forum.

I don't think that a loose mouth person is a wise person, and as long as anyone didn't know you gamble, not to talk of you winning, then it is wise to keep it that way. Disclosing your gambling winning has a lot of risk attached to it than not disclosing it, so why not opt for the first to keep yourself intact? One of the issues of offline gambling is that people get to know you and your results, and this could cause issues like robbery and harassment which no one will like. So, telling people now despite gambling it online makes it almost the same as offline, if not the same as that situation. Note that you do not know the mind of anyone towards you, the minds of some people towards one another could be wicked, especially if they are your jealous friends unknown to you. This could be a serious issue.

It is better to live your life as you've lived it without causing unnecessary attention to yourself. We hear of cases where people will have crypto and some unscrupulous people will force them into isolated places for them to move their assets to them. This could be possible also if you win big and a friend sets some people you didn't know to come and attack you and collect that money from you. While some will only be hateful because of your success, and even if you give them a fraction of winning, they might never be satisfied. So, it is better to keep your winning to yourself, unless it is so small to the extent that it can't attract attention.

You're very right with your opinion on this topic. There was a time a friend of mine luckily won big in gambling so because of the fact that the amount of money he won was too much, I advised him to only disclose his winning to his immediate family members as well as his close friends if he wishes to or better still keep the news to himself and think of how put the money to good use but to my greatest surprise, he decided not to heed to my advice and went about telling everyone in the neighborhood of how big his winning was.

Weeks later, so group of people attacked him and robbed him of all  his valuables and forced him to transfer all the money in his account to them. It was later that we learnt that it was one of the boys in the neighborhood that led the gang that robbed him and that made him to learn his lessons the hard way

Some gamblers enjoys sharing their wins with their friends, just because they are very excited that they won big. In some cases, maybe the person has never had any win before, and his first win becomes like a testimony to him. It is old time gamblers that are use to winning, that might see sharing the story of their win as a threat to them because they don't want anyone to know if they won or not or if they are gamblers or not. My first win gave me joy and I had to tell my friends and even took them out to the bar that evening so that they can also enjoy from it. Currently, I don't share my wins anymore, and I don't like the idea because it can make your friends or other people that are envious of you to start gambling, even when they have never gambled before.

I would not share my winning either. I am not against it being displayed, not I will never post on purpose that I have won. Why would I even do that? To get approval and praise? That is imo unethical. It is like boasting. I doubt that information about where, how and how much I have won will be valuable for someone. It will give them no help to get the same experience. And I am the "money loves silence" theory supporter.

There's no harm in telling other people about our victory, but first look at who we tell it to. And what is your reason for saying this?

And if the reason is just to show off and brag about having achieved a number of big wins in gambling, it would be better if you didn't do that. Not a few people experience disaster after winning at gambling, where upon returning from the casino he was robbed by a number of people, one of the robbers was someone he had talked to at the casino about the winnings he had just obtained.

We may talk about the victory we have just achieved, only to those closest to us who we trust. And it would be careless to tell this to someone you don't know, whose background we don't even know. Careless things that can have fatal and unfortunate consequences.
