Even though gambling winning is very sweet, it is very risky relying solely on it. It is always better to make gambling a means of passive income and not a full time job. Gambling requires funding and when there is no stable income, there will be a huge impact on the psychology especially when there is serious loss that is always possible in gambling.

I’d prefer not to see gambling as a means where any type of income can be generated. It’s best if you place a bet leisurely and with an open mind, definitely not anxious and overly hoping for a win. That way, when you win, you would feel very happy and thrilled irrespective of the amount won.
Gambling does requires funding and when taken as a side gig with very high hopes for some extra income to be made, then you’ll sooner or later find yourself funneling a large chunk of your main income into gambling having renewed unrealistic hope that the big win is within reach until you get wrecked financially.
Gambling should not be viewed as a source of income but rather as a source of entertainment and should be played occasionally and winnings will depend entirely on luck. Gambling is a game that hinges on profit or loss although most people who place bets never develop a gambling problem certain factors are often associated with compulsive gambling leading to addiction and mental health problems. People who gamble compulsively often lose a large portion of their winnings that's why it's best to start with a small amount and keep it under control.
I agree with you that making gambling as a source of income is very risky, with that thing you will continue to play until you succeed in winning the game you are playing or at least you get a big profit from your initial capital and that is not very good apart from making you addicted to this. It will make you experience mental disorders if you cannot produce wins and instead experience more losses. Apart from having an impact on your financial condition, this will also have a negative impact on your mental health.
Therefore, it is better to use gambling well and with the aim of having fun so that we don't expect to be able to win a lot at gambling because this will be difficult to achieve.

Those who continue to gamble without stopping will gradually experience mental health problems, which will be very dangerous for them and the people around them, especially if they become addicted to gambling. This will make them easily offended if someone tells them they should stop gambling. They will think they are still fine and can still control themselves even though they lost control of themselves a long time ago without realizing it. If they realized that they had started to change, they might reduce their gambling activities. But unfortunately, most of them don't see that, which makes them deeper into gambling without any chance to get out of gambling.

I met a friend who used about $1 to play gamble to win about $2500 in a game of different matches, all the early games went well but the last game cut which made him loose the game.  This lose made him to be sick for 3 days, the reason for his reaction was not because of the money he used to bet but he felt so bad because he has already put all his hope on the money he would have won.

People needs not to put all their hope in games they are not sure of winning, because relying on it can be very dangerous to the mental health. Play gamble and remove your mind from the money that will be gained till it is achieved.

A good gambler is someone who is always assessing the risks, in the example you gave there was the option to lock in a certain amount of winnings by placing opposite bets, I would always prefer a guaranteed $1,000 return from $1 than a possible $2,500 with plenty of potential to lose. However most gamblers are terrible when it comes to odds, as are people in general, so will inevitably be unable to calculate value. The best gamblers are those who do it casually, never expecting to walk away with any money they put into it and not relying on a certain outcome, like trying to double their money. Those sort of people are chasing a very dangerous dream that is unlikely to convert into reality and will leave them feeling more desperate.

People who gamble compulsively often lose a large portion of their winnings that's why it's best to start with a small amount and keep it under control.

You can only see gambling as a means of an income stream if you are the house, if not then just play, and if you win save some for what you need or buy a souvenir that you once won big from gambling.

I do agree that it will affect a person mentally when he expects his gambling like a passive income. He's not gonna be lucky every day.
Although it would be amusing to see this gambler think he is making a passive income from playing in a casino for a year and then he goes shopping and pays his bills from the money he earns. I just hope someone will relly be this successful.


There have also been popular gamblers and some of which still went broke. It is as you say, you are either the house or maybe you sell it as a product as a streamer, which isn't quite the most respected way to make money, but other than that relying on gambling alone often times backfires.

As for the mental pressure, I think everything that can be somewhat considered gambling is never healthy. Take as an example people who invest more money than they can afford to lose into crypto and the time horizon is against them. That's also putting a lot of pressure onto their minds. It's the same with anything that we hope to be making money from. There should be steady streams of income which are not subject to market whims or bad news, or even worse than that, bad luck.
Facing up challenges and stress would really be that so common if we do speak about on dealing things that we do really encounter which we know that it could really be that totally random since not all people would be able to encounter on things which other people do able to do so. Gambling is never been that intended for you to make it as a source of income or simply saying that you cant really be able to make that constant win.
If you are really that trying to find out things on which you could really be able to make money from then having that hard day work or job would really be giving out that kind of opportunity and we know that gambling and have a day job would really be that entirely be different to each other on which means that you would really be needing to act accordingly on what are the things that needs to be done and something that would really be just that right in line. Gambling winning and losing would really be that normal and since odds would be always against us when it comes to gambling field then never ever make yourself that able to
become that impulsive so that you wont really be prone into bad decision making or on whatever things that you do tend to do so.

Yea very risky. Most times, money realised from this wins are used to fund the next game and the gambler is left with nothing if he is not prudent in his spendings. He should also be concerned about addiction which is not a healthy habit. What becomes of him if he is faced with reoccurring losses? We know that there are lots of people who have made it big through gambling.  While trying to make it big like them , we should have a job to sustain us pending when the big win happens.

You don't have to agree on this, gambling is in fact an opportunity to make income and it's not news that people are making money from it. But it's rather not the means to rely on income making, I hope you get the difference between the two now.

Like myself, I gamble and make money somewhat consistently with sportsbooks but I dare not rely on such as my sole means of making income. It's at the time I believed too much that a bet would win that the bet would lose, if one relied on that, such would get disappointed and get himself to blame. Gambling generally is a game of chance and no one can perfectly predict an outcome which is why it's bad to rely on it for a living or budgetary plans as it will affect one's mental state and even more than that.
Winning affecting our mental state, ofcourse no excepts we depend solely on it for survival. We're in the system and ought to apply precautionary measures that would aides in maximizing profits and minimize losses. Whatever we know shouldn't deviates from us because nowhere is safe out there. Jumping from one sector and game strategy to another would not help, we mainly focused on the strategy that works for us and keeps consistent practices till we become pro with that particular strategy, that's how to find a pro gambler with a great dealnl of experience.

Gambling is indeed an income generator to some players. It actually varies depending on your goal the moment you enter. It can be a sideline for some while it can also be a sole entertainment to those who can afford to gamble without any returns. If you are in it for the fun, you'll less likely to chase the rewards and will be more of actively after for the thrill and the excitement it brings. Although some people make it their profit generator as alternative to doing specific jobs.

But for me, gambling shouldn't really be made as main income provider for a person or household. This is because it is very risky to put your money to an uncertain scenario. You can win or lose in gambling and it's probability will depend on different factors, so it won't always be a 50/50. Luck and skills will play a role and it depends on the circumstances and the odds whether you'll bring home the bacon or not.

If though it's true I am not going to feel missed out, he is just luck, maybe he should try doing the same the next day and let's see if he will get such a reward again, this type of luck happens once in a Blue Moon for gamblers, many don't even see such wins before, so this isn't a story to motive someone like me, I am means and cold to gambling altogether.

I do gamble still but the money use isn't going to ever hurt if I lose it to gamble, it's nice using small money to win some amount of money, even if it's not as much as who OP used in is topic, assuming this person keeps using $1 every day to gamble, that's $30 per month and of this person is earning over hundreds of dollars he will be fine with gambling on the long run.

Can you complain of losing money in gambling when all you lose in a day is $1? This is what I expect from smart people, and when you will maybe 15 dollars it's still a lot because all you use is a dollar, think about how much you are losing instead, and leave how much you can win because that thought can get you addicted or make you increase your amount you are willing to lose.

I agree, gambling is not an opportunity to earn income, but by looking around us at activities or skills that we can do and will make us earn money there.

Why should this be dangerous to one's mental health, when we can also have an expectation on other things about life and they may not come through as expected and we never loose our senses at the cause, i will only go against the category of addicted and jobless kind of gamblers who have taken this a must to make win, those who take extra steps in making their personal ambition come to reality wether good or bad.
It becomes dangerous because this activity involves finances, people who hope to get good results in gambling use money, so that when they don't get what they expect they will return to gambling with other money and continue until they finally get it, which is possible when you calculate what what you get is not commensurate with what you have spent. When you run a business you also use money, but the results you get from the business are not based on luck or something that cannot be predicted, whereas gambling is an activity that is difficult to predict the results of, so gambling should be done in a normal way and use money that we can afford to lose, so that when we don't win, What is hoped is not to keep chasing it to get it because it can release the money well.
In other words, it causes stress. Losing money in gambling will make you regret your actions and make you feel really exhausted not in the body, but in mind. Even without moving a muscle, any activity that will make you sweat, your body will not function properly if your mind is unstable. The exhaustion given by stress is really different, it will make you lose your appetite and make your body weak.

Everyone should always remember, that having a high expectation in gambling is not good. Relying solely on it will not make your life a better condition, it is possible if you win but the opposite has a higher chance to happen. Your life will only become miserable, and your health might be in danger.

That's what you should never do because it will definitely hurt your feelings. Just gamble, but don't get your hopes up. If you're lucky, you'll win, but if you're unlucky, you'll lose no matter what you bet.

You can't blame or tell gamblers though, I mean yeah, they could be gambling for fun, but obviously, we all what to win some money. But the problem is that there are gamblers who think that is the way to make a living and bringing food in the table for their family. And if everything fails, then they will have to go on a mental health problems because they don't know where to get the money agian.

That's just the logic of gambling; you don't need to use skills or whatever it is, as long as the important thing is that you enjoy the game even if you encounter a lot of losses, and that's normal, I think, here in the crypto gambling space.

We can put it this way, just stop gambling for good and you will be fine and you will not suffer from any mental health problems. I will agree that from time to time I go on a gambling binge and it made me have some nights with depression although I can afford to lose that money. Perhaps its the mentality that I don't want to lose and when I do, 2 days of thinking what went wrong and so if affected me psychologically until I will overcome it.

Yes, that's what they should do in gambling. If not, they will only regret it and probably get frustrated because they never win. They must realize that gambling is not a place to make money but only a place to have fun. If they understand this, they will not gamble excessively and always limit their gambling. And instead of trying hard to win, they will just try to enjoy their time gambling. And if they have had enough, they will leave the casino without any burden even if they lose because losing in gambling is normal. We must be able to treat gambling as it should be and not use gambling to make money.

Yes, this is the truest thing about gambling, you don't need to expect too much from winning, the point is to enjoy the game without having to think about winning big, always remember that gambling is very dangerous and mentally damaging if you don't play it properly, for example, sometimes people always consider gambling as a source of income so they are obsessed and hope to win and rarely enjoy every game.

Mindset is the most important thing because that way you can control yourself and manage your emotions when gambling. It is dangerous if you gamble. If you cannot control and manage your emotions well, it will definitely harm yourself. Talking about the logic of gambling, the thing that not many people realize is that actually Gambling should be used as entertainment and should not be used as a source of income. This is clearly wrong. The point is that winning is a bonus and losing is for experience and fun.

your friend is a complete jerk , from 1 dollar to x2500 yet did not decide to take our the wins and go home?
why on earth that there is a person such this? what he wanted is to win a million or will never stop until the casino goes bankrupt ?
he is lucky to did not commit suicide from that incident because this can make a person total wreck.
he goes beyond His luck and challenge that luck if how much this can bring him.
sorry for the word but this is what he deserve to understand the nature of gambling.
Many people are like his friend. That happens in gambling, where many people have managed to win a lot of money with just a small betting capital but instead continue gambling. They hope to win another big win but it is difficult to happen.

It is greediness that is common among many people. He should be able to use his money well because he is one of the lucky people who can win a lot of money. But in reality, he continued gambling and ended up losing.

That is a real example we get from his friends so we really have to be able to prevent it. If we win a lot of money, we should immediately stop gambling and withdraw the money. Don't even think about doubling your winnings by continuing to gamble.

I always suggest my gambler friends to treat money they gamble as a loss until gamble is closed. With this mindset, you will never feel bad at all cause you will only offer money that you can accept to lose. Some gamblers think that money they lose through gambling is stolen. Its very disruptive thinking for mental health. To be honest, we should have better education to teach people how gambling mechanism works so people won't behave unproductive and unhealthy.
Each lost bet will affect us, it is very difficult to reach a level where you don't have to worry about losing money. Even if we are talking about the minimum bet, we always play in order to win. And before we place a bet, we take the time to analyze the match, so we want to be rewarded for our work. We can, of course, try to treat the bet as obviously lost money, but why have such an attitude if we want to win? A positive attitude is also an important component of successful thinking, so it’s better not to think about losing money.  Smiley
