for me getting monthly financial statements is much more organized...with it I can also monitor other expenses in detail. I don't gamble very often so the monthly financial statements are enough for me not to pollute my records.

How can a responsible gambler not remember how much money he spent on gambling or alcohol? A responsible person doesn't get drunk to the point where he can't remember what happened yesterday. A person who consumes alcohol in such quantities will not be helped by any financial reports.
When you spend money constantly in bits, it is normal that you may not be able to keep track of the amount you have spent on something say gambling or alcohol. If a financial record or something like a register is shown to you having the total amount you've spent on a habit, you may be surprised the total amount you see.
As a way to keep track, would you like to receive regular, maybe weekly or monthly financial statements highlighting wins and losses from a gambling site?

Having a weekly financial statement in gambling will be better for a gambler to see how much money he already spent on gambling on that site.As a way to keep track, would you like to receive regular, maybe weekly or monthly financial statements highlighting wins and losses from a gambling site?

Many gambling sites will have that financial statements for their members because that can help a gambler calculate his funds to gamble.
If you are a responsible gambler, that report can help you to analyze how much average money you can use a week or a month so maybe you can adjust the amount which you think that is you can afford.
But I do not think that many gamblers will create that report for themselves, especially if they play gambling for fun.
A person who counts his income and expenses always knows how much money and what he spent. In my opinion, receiving financial reports from the gambling site will not affect the activity of a gambler. But improving their financial literacy may well help to reduce spending, not only on gambling but also on other entertainment.

Do you mean a gambling site will automatically send us our financial statement based on what period we have set? Like a subscription either they will send it via from our registered email or to an internal message inbox on the site.
I don't like it as it wasn't necessary to see how's my gambling finances go through all the time. However, when the time comes that I like to see it, just out of curiosity, requesting it to the site shouldn't be a problem as they have records of it.
on a specific site.
Its not actually necessary to have this but if you are a gambler who do really mind about on how much you had spent overall then it should really be on monthly basis and also if you are that
mindful about your finances about totals or something like that then you shouldnt have gambled in the first place.

I think that in my opinion, it would be better to give these weekly gambling expenses statistics, the reason is simple, if the monthly gambling expenses are shown, the control decreases, if the short-term expenses numbers are obtained, there will be self-control And you can set a weekly goal of the money you are willing to lose. In my case it is not like that, whether weekly or monthly I always have a percentage of my money that is not representative, and a part of that money that I have is monthly, I do not put more or less money. If I play 1 time and lose everything, I don't play until another month. Sometimes it is difficult to resist the temptation to play, but it is the best thing to do, as this is called discipline.

I believe most of the gambling sites have some kind of statistics that measure different variables like your winnings/losses, total amount wagered, number of bets played.
If you ask me, I'd say this is useful for the responsible gambler, but might be frustrating or even dangerous for someone who is or is on the edge of becoming an addict. Seeing how much you lost is not an easy task for anyone. You keep thinking about what other things you could have made with that money.
I guess you can come with something like: "This month you have spenth $300 (loss) on entertaining yourself." - I imagine that would help some gamblers cope with their feelings.
I agree, for example on Stake gamblers can request statistics and they can check the overall account stats for week/fortnight/month. If addiction is the case, checking stats will not change anything, the gambler will return to the casino for chasing losses as usual. Having a concrete money management plan and sticking to it is the way to protect your bank account/crypto savings in case of things go wrong. Overthinking about losses will not bring back losses, negative mental thoughts can be dangerous for addicted gamblers.

Monthly seems better since other expenses comes in monthly as well but the upside with weekly records is that the time frame is more precise if you plan on finding trends in your gambling activity since there are weeks where i'm not that active.

That's true most sites automatically track your stats but it's overall though, you rarely see gambling sites that shares your personal stats once a week or month. Having the opportunity to see your actual losses is good even though it could cause others to chase their losses it's better to face the reality before things get out of hand.

I'll prefer a weekly financial statement anytime to a monthly one. It might be stressful but it's worth every bit of the stress as it keeps you in constant awareness of what goes in and out of your account. Your expenses are better budgeted for too and a correction on your financial allocation can be easily down and spread out through your income periods.
In another place it proves to have a better advantage is in error detection and correction. Seriously, the awareness you've got keeps you on the go every time. Errors can be easily detected and treated as need may be. So, I a many ways, having a weekly account statement is better than a monthly statement. Come on, 7days compared to a 31days, that's too much of wait time.

This reminds me of my friend who used to always tell me to calculate how much I spend for smokes per month. He does not smoke. I often told him not to remind of it since I may feel to reduce smoking worrying about the budget. Obviously yes, keeping a record of what we spend on, not only on alcohol, smokes or gambling, it may be anything, it would lead us to have financial control over our lives.

I think if you are new to managing your money effectively it is worth analyzing it week after week, as you really need to figure out where you are making profits and where you are leaking losses away. Once you have developed a solid strategy, which is usually a point where you can make money automatically and without thinking too much, then you may want to switch to checking your track record monthly. If you play a sloppy poker game for example, but gradually identify your weak spots and work it out of the game, then eventually you can improve to the point where you're making consistent money. I'm also not sure that your financial statements will tell the whole story as you need to determine why they are positive or negative based on the game you're playing.

So, how much do you think you should spend on gambling per month or per week? You can adjust for various labor expenses and allocate to gambling a few percent.
I don't do a lot of routine checks on the expenses I've spent gambling, because first I'm not too addicted, and second I'm not very familiar with many gambling sites. I only gamble when I feel the need for entertainment, and that I can still control. Why can I be so kind and not addicted? the reason, that I'm not very good at gambling, except for the Slot button.

I personally always prepare unexpected expenses for gambling, cigarettes, and beer every week after I prioritize spending on necessities such as food and so on every week.
and from 100% of my income during the week I only set aside about 30% for gambling and others as I mentioned earlier, and I start gambling in the middle of the week to the weekend and if the money I prepared for gambling runs out before the weekend I don't will add it again, because I know there will be more to lose than win so lose or win according to the capital I have prepared.
I've been using it for a few months and it's very effective and disciplined not to lose more, and if I win it's my luck and I'll keep the result in reserve whatever.

Large expenditures of money should not be allowed to flow without structured management. It would be very dangerous, when not reviewing all the expenses while gambling. Moreover, large expenditures will be very useful, to find out how much everyone has won when gambling and how much money has gone into the loss box.
What can be done, when getting data that has been released in the past, and getting some list of losses?

why not ?
I would be glade if there is a gambling site that can make a financial statement and deliver it straight to our inbox but so far there's none that does this although theres only a statistics tied in our accounts and that could still serve the same purpose but we can forgot to check them.
It makes us unware if how much money we spent in gambling but if we saw it I think this will make us limit our self .

I certainly want to know, because of course, it makes me a reflection of being able to play in a structured calculation. Knowing the total amount of expenses that are listed as a whole will make me curious, and can compare the losses and wins. so that from this difference we will know how much the Gambling House is playing with our finances every time we play.
I would love to be paid every week, for example, but I would keep to my budget on a monthly basis. When I was in the UK I loved to be paid every week. It makes you much more in control of your spending because when I switched to monthly I realized I was spending my wage in less than 10 days. Today I am forced to recieve my salary every month but I try to keep an healthy weekly budget because if I do not overspend I can transform those money spared into savings.
How about you separate a personal budget? You can take $100 from your $1000 monthly income or salary and spend it exclusively for your gambling and other habit. You won't have to keep tracking them on a weekly or monthly basis since you know where the money went to. You have to stay disciplined for this to work.
