Bottom line: anyone can be as successful as that person in the gambling business, as long as there is a will, support, confidence to get up and try, of course all dreams come true.

That is the key to someone's success, whether they are rich or poor or even people who are not smart but if they have great will and great determination, success will come to them by all means.
Many entrepreneurs or business owners who used to be just ordinary people who are poor but they have faith and want to try to make all their dreams come true.
Like ourselves, if we have dreams of success, we should understand the key to success and immediately do whatever it takes to make ourselves successful.

Although these people have become professional gamblers at some point in their lives, I doubt that their successful businesses or even conglomerates are built from scratch, or from whatever they made from gambling. Can a professional gambler who doesn't have vast wealth build a casino in Las Vegas or found an airline company or own a football club from whatever money he wins out of gambling? I don't think so.

There must be a connections and a strong family background, not unless you hit the biggest jackpot and for sure your connections will just pop-up like a mushroom because you already have the money now. Anyway, doing this business is not easy and we are talking about a multi billion casino here so for sure they also have a good partners and investors. If you are just a small gambler like me, its better to think for a business that are more realistic, even if you gamble that much if you are not lucky you will never win the jackpot.

Sheldon Adelson- The founder of the Las Vegas Sands Corporation, The Venetian and The Palazzo in Las Vegas and Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

Maybe you are right, the names and photos that you publish here, are successful billionaires in their respective businesses from hotels to casinos.

I often read about all of them before they succeeded in the world of gambling until they succeeded in becoming a billionaire, I admit they are basically poor but with the struggle and never give up in their hearts and minds, so they can be successful, especially in the hotel business have a casino.

I take the story of Sheldon Adelson as an example.
I read about Sheldon Adelson quite often, the story of Sheldon Adelson, ( as a warrior ), is one of the motivations for all of us, the way he started his business from scratch and his generosity towards education, medical research and to rehabilitation.

I'm pretty sure others who have had success in the gambling business, such as:@Kirk Kerkorian to @Phil Ruffin, had their worst history before achieving success in gambling.

Bottom line: anyone can be as successful as that person in the gambling business, as long as there is a will, support, confidence to get up and try, of course all dreams come true.

I'm not a player, and it's hard for me to talk specifically about professionalism. Although I agree that experience is professionalism, I am more inclined to admire the luck of those who once hit a big jackpot. But is it possible to get it regularly? How many people lose their money every day, risking everything for a lucky chance? Win all the time? For me, it's mystical.
I think everything is connected here; people who know how to correctly assess the chances of success and make a bet also have an excellent analytical mind, having created a successful business for themselves.

Everyone's journey is different to get big profits, with various tricks, every luck is still luck that cannot be presented in a planned manner. People who feel motivated to get the same thing fall deeper into the casino. Just because we are motivated by the story doesn't mean we should try it too, because the approaching circumstances of fortune come at the right moment, not when we plan for it.

So, I hope gamblers out there who know their story don't misinterpret gambling. Grin

we cannot deny the fact that they may be successful person now but what about those all that they have dealing , i mean do they not scammed other people just to be successful?

We should be less concerned about the means they use on this lane because the discussion focus on the successful men, if they achieve that by cheating on others then it's left for them because i believe anything not earned lawfully doesn't last, the more reason you see so many establishements today going down, have we dig deep into the history behind their foundation from the rising?

concern of the thread and sharing but I think some of them become big time because also of their taking advantage of others.
and I don't really admire people that become a millionaire just because they took others money.

No one either likes this or anywhere it's been accepted, their conscience should judge them, but if such people exist i believe they are only few of then, those that scam others to make wealth also waste the money on things that are unnecessary and not on investment.

A good example, but the fact is that Fred Smith was not a professional gambler, but was a businessman in a desperate situation and he went to play without thinking about winning as money in the sense of making money, but rather as an opportunity to continue his life's work.

Ok mate, now I get the difference since Fred Smith had no history of gambling since after then, I guess he was just a. Businessman that was at a crossroads and decide to risk with the company's last balance he can't be said to be a professional gambler.

-Anyways thank goodness he hard a good outcome, after all, his risk changed the faith of the company and their success story is linked to gambling.

Well many people keep saying the casino always win and you will make a lot money after creating a casino, but it's not that simple because the developer need to pay a programmer to create the site, pay the operational costs e.g. live support, marketing etc, they need to pay license, pay the gambling provider etc. If there's not many gamblers who want gamble, the casino will not make any profit and they need to keep paying the operational costs.

Gambling has no doubt birth many professionals and millionaires in gambling and those people have find gambling to be their reason for a change of status in life, they are part of the world rich businessmen in the financial economy and yet performing well in gambling today and maintain being rich all because they know their moderacy and have invested big on other profitable assets that sources them money to always use in gambling aside from those having their own gambling website after tasting it to be a good source for making business.

The same way gambling creates lots of broke and broken family. There is always a pro and cons in gambling. What matters is the action of a person right after when he got lucky gaining huge amount of money and put it on a business venture.

While other businessmen take gambling as form of recreational activity, others develop interest in entering competitions and challenges making them veterans and professionals. It is always a good sight to see successful people in the gambling industry, if there is something in gambling we need to learn, we can just look at these successful people gambling history and activities and learn from their success and failure.

Right. Gambling has definitely its fair share of advantages and disadvantages. While one can prosper and live luxurious lifestyle, the other one maybe drown to debt and leave his entire life paying all those consequences in gambling. That is the reason why gamblers should be more responsible in dealing with their huge winnings, as well as with their inevitable losses, because if they come up with wrong decisions, those winnings will be gone easily and will later on trigger gambling addiction that will eventually ruin a gambler’s life if left uncontrolled. However, it’s certain that with gambling, there are also some lucky people who rose to fame because of their huge wealth and eventually become good businessmen in the making. These are the people who have been gambling responsibly and have been making too much luck with gambling.

There are many successful people who had ventured gambling before becoming successful and it's not because they are good at what they do butost time it's because of determination of doing one thing consistently.

There are also successful business men who paved there way into Fame through scamming people to get to where they are going. Such kind of men do not care what is the consequences of such act because all they care about is money and more money to become more successful. We should not add this kind of people to the list.

There are some people who can dream and some others who dare to it. Many of those who can dream big but some times can't make it through traditional platforms. Today I will mention the names of some people who started their business life with the help of gambling money. Who were initially professional gamblers later became reputed businessman. Many of whom are now active philanthropists, supporting various charities. If responsible gambling can be practiced then luck can be expended. He can make himself known differently in a shortest possible of time.

Indeed gambling have changed many gamblers' life in both directions, and we have a few of thos prominent names who changed the life and fortune through gambling and reading through the list of names and businesses that have hard positive results via gambling is quite encouraging.

-And also a pointer to how significant it is to take calculated risks to revive a business or set up a new one, I have heard and read a lot of positive testimonies on how CEOs have gamble their companies capital and in the end, made a fortune that changes the direction of the business for good.

-I was hoping to see Fred Smith's name on the list, he was the CEO of Fedex express and in 2020 the company was about to go bankrupt and Fred Smith requested it by playing the lottery with the last company funds of $5,000 and luckily for him he won the lottery prize and the ground prize was $27,000 he won that amount playing blackjack.

-His action changed the faith of the company and now their global shipping company.

The thing is, a gambling operation can generate a lot of profit in a very short time. Let's take Stake.com as an example : In 2016, Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani established Easygo, a company which developed games for online casinos. The two helped create Stake.com which was founded in 2017. (5 to 6 years ago) - Source : Wikipedia

Looking at some of the businesses developed by these people they are also still around the world of gambling so they just change themselves from a professional gambler to a businessman in the world of gambling also because they know the profits and also the large velocity of money in the world of gambling, and gambling is a lucrative business. We don't need to dream of becoming a successful gambler in order to become a successful businessman because not everyone understands how to earn from gambling and you can also become addicted if you can't control yourself.

I am pretty sure at least one of those names (probably more than one) you mentioned didn't become a successful businessman just because he was a good gambler. Some of those guys (at least 1), did some pretty illegal shit to grow their empire and I am pretty positive all of them already had huge amounts of money to start with. If you think these men were playing slots in a casino all day and then randomly they decided to be become "successful" businessmen, then you are in a big surprise. Nothing of a kind happened.

Are you sure about Terry Benedict? He's character in Ocean movie series. Also, I read wikis of some of people you mentioned, gambling itself had nothing to do with their success — either they quit gambling or created businesses centered around it. Gamblers lose, casino wins.

I was thinking the same thing when I read the names and what they are famous for, they reached success by being casino owners or something similar and they did not do it through gambling itself.

When it comes to famous and profitable gamblers I think of Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth or Doyle Brunson, gamblers which have made a fortune playing poker professionally and that are examples to follow for all of those which wish to achieve a similar level of success.

To be successful is not easy and there will be many challenges. The names you mentioned made it through every challenge and eventually became successful in gambling. They have targets and dreams they want to achieve and don't stop before they can. We have to learn a lot from them, but not from the gambling side, but from other things that can make them successful in achieving that success. Maybe they can be responsible in playing gambling and get win after win and save it to open their business which can give them an advantage so they don't have to gamble too often.

We have dreams that we want to achieve, but sometimes we are lazy to set foot to achieve those dreams and there are too many considerations. And if you feel you can't succeed from gambling like those people, you can use other ways to achieve your dreams.
