Of course to win money is one priority of gambling and we can't deny that fact even though the nature of gambling looks more like fun but we all knows that anything we spend money on' we also hope for return.

The aspect of excaping stress is what I can't understand, because there is even stress in gambling especially when you place a bet and see that it is going against your wish, you adrenaline increases your impulse and it leads to mental stress. The worst is when you lose instead of win you become furious. So gambling to excape stress is never in my dictionary.

And of course from the pow you can tell which option is more important.

Money, money, only money. I can't say for sure what drives everyone to gamble, but in my case, I can say with certainty that I gamble primarily for money. There is an invisible tendency in gambling where everyone thinks it is possible to get rich very easily. I am still focused on gambling for an uncertain future, primarily for the sake of money.

If we talk not about casino games, but about sports betting, then I often wrote earlier, the main motive for the game should be making money. Yes, sports betting can be used for entertainment. But only then and there, where you fail to make money. But in general, gambling is gambling because there is always an obvious or implicit opportunity to make money. However, in sports betting over a long distance of 3-5 years, it is quite difficult to make money. Personally, I play for research purposes - I have also written about this. I even have a separate topic on this topic. Playing for research purposes means that you play and at the same time try to identify some game patterns, as well as test strategies and your theories in practice, which can help you make money in the future.

If I had to choose more than once I would choose all of the above especially since everyone participates in gambling for income.
There are also many who participate in gambling to spend their free time. Some people engage in gambling temporarily or for long periods of time to relieve emotional stress. And there are many who come to gambling primarily for the purpose of this income to build a career and become permanently addicted. They are basically considered professional gamblers.

I feel like very few people are willing to admit it but it's very common in my view for people to gamble as a relief for stress.
Well, what if your stress relief could lead to financial ruin? Honestly more people need positive things in their life Ather than such pastrimes that could get you in difficult positions when you are already down.

If you are stressed first learn to recognize stress and find some more conventional ways to combat it.
So really I'd say it's a tough choose but if you're stressed better stay away from gambling for a while.

Other than that, also gambling to make money is quite problematic too. But the rest are ok and I'm hoping more people gamble for less problematic reasons. Let's see, my money is on passing time to come first.

If the poll can allow someone to choose more than one, I could have made my selections.

I will be a big liar if I say winning money is not among the reasons why I gamble; other reasons, like using it to pass time, might follow, but one thing that fuels using gambling as a means to pass time is that there is a little possibility that I can win money out of it. If what I just want to do is entertain myself, I will use online games or involve myself in other recreational activities.

People gamble for various reasons and it's no doubt making money is the real deal amongst all;money is the goal.Making money can be the major reason people gamble.Eversince the economical standards depreciated and declined the quest for money and survival has gotten new grades and the easiest way they some could think of is through gambling.

Some individuals gamble to cope with financial difficulties as the concept of easy money making is sweet and enticing to the ears.However, people gamble for many reasons and if government wants to curb gambling practices it would have been much easier.

Some people's motivation towards gambling is usually from their economic situation. Someone who is in a country where an economic situation is hard or someone struggling with one source of income will likely gamble with the intention to make more money, even if it's a new gambler who you do not expect to be gambling for money yet.

Most gamblers are also influenced by their environment because the idea they have towards gambling is as something to make money from, not something to have fun with or pass time with. This perception towards gambling that has been influenced by environmental factors is usually difficult to change.

By the way, anyone gambling to escape problems should not do so.
Problems are supposed to be faced and solved within our own power and not to allow them to grow bigger, to the point their start to escape our control.
Gambling is a distraction, it can be a temporary escape but it won't solve any problem one has, unless one manages to hit a jackpot or something.
Those who select money as their main motivation to gamble are either quite honest and also in a kind of dangerous situation in the long term, as it diverges from the ideas gambling is for the sake of adrenaline rushes and entertainment.

There is always at least a little of expectation for money to come thanks to our good luck, but turning it into our main driving force to gamble is a mistake.

If there was no fortune of winning and make profits out of gambling, I don't think if there would be anyone interested to just spend their times and money on it all in the name of passing out time or funds.
Although this is mostly Pointed at the online sports bets. I literally does not find fun there but if I must play with the aim of fun then I just go with the skill based gambling such as the roulette and poker.

It always feels companied and fun having that communal contact of having an opposition rival which is the bookmaker or playing with friends.

You either believe your best of input can really prove your winning possibilities as you effortlessly try to stay outstanding while defeats your opponent even though it is uncertain as gambling is totally a game of luck.

I always post about the intentions of we gamblers. 100% among us gamble to win money. But not all of us that gamble to earn money through gambling.

Earning money means to see gambling as a means of making daily, weekly or monthly income. That is a bad idea.

If most of us do not gamble with money, it is not interesting at all. But I gamble with small amount of money. I do not like to lose. That is just the fact. But if I lose, it is just a small amount of money.

Voting in this category is going to be hard as most of us here have all of the above as reasons for gambling although the first reason is mostly not relevant like the others since the majority of gamblers over here are beginning to understand the truth about gambling which is not to make money, so we already have a settled mind that the house will always win, so we don't put too much hopes in gambling for making money, but passing time and easing stress is one whole lot role that gambling plays in our daily life no doubt about that, so for sure voting for one among them is going to be a hard decision for most of us if I am not mistaken.

I gamble to enjoy sometime by testing my luck and that's the main reason why I gamble. I don't really do it for money, and that's the reason why I don't gamble for long duration sometimes. I find gambling as a fun activity but the ones who do it should of course first understand gambling responsibility. As a player I also gambled on meme coins a few weeks ago and to be honest, I lost some money but it was still a good experience.

I guess that's the major reason of most gamblers and is no surprise as that is really the main goal of most. Of course, when you bet, you wish that your bet will win. Who wouldn't want such profits?

My main motivation for betting is the excitement and adrenaline rush I get from sporting events, especially football. The unpredictability of the games, the intensity of the matches and the satisfaction of correctly predicting the outcome fuel my passion for this type of betting.

However, I also enjoy the fun and variety of online casino games.... We agree that slots with their colourful themes and bonus features always provide a fun and casual escape in the same way that card games, on the other hand, require strategy and skill, offering an engaging mental challenge.

If I could, I would choose options 3 and 4, which reflect my passion for the excitement and fun that gambling, both sports and casino, brings to my life. It is a choice that celebrates the variety and excitement that the world of gambling has to offer.

If I am to choose, I'll select the three.

- Win money

- escape stress or problems

- pass time

To be honest, these are the reasons why a gambler gambles. We tend to think of the money, to have fun and to just pastime.
