You probably heard the negative sides of gambling, some people who dont gamble has this bad impression towards it and we cant blame them for thinking that way because of the bad affect of gambling to a person who dont have control and let himself became addicted.

Now what did you realize or learn as a gambler (regardless if you became an addicted or not) that you can share to others?

As a former addicted gambler I realized that gambling is not the answer if you're desperate to grow your money and should not be our last resort in times like this because there's other way that can be the solution to our problem when it comes to money.

Beside learning the game itself and getting good at it, I also learnt the importance of money while gambling for few years now. Getting broke at times and saving each bit to get back to the game with hope to win big and cover losses did make me realize importance of money. Now I am more cautious with my spending and I save too.

As a gambler, I learned how to waste money and time. Gambling is nothing but a waste of money and time. So there is no better learning as a gambler. Another thing I've learned as a gambler is how to become rich or poor overnight. Besides, I think playing gambling cannot be learned. However, many have learned good things about gambling.

Gambling is truly taught me some lessons.
1. To use the head over the emotion. Some time emotion use to take over when we are continuously losing the ego/ or emotion come into play and we made mistake by taking big chances and ending up losing big. Even in life when it is a bad day we need to be clam and take rest.
2. To take control of greed. When you are winning we need to stop at the right point some greed could push you onto a dead end. 
3. Keeping hope alive.  Be patient your time will come
last but not least 4. How to get rid of an addiction.  Cheesy Cheesy

I agree with you, do not make gambling as an alternative way that can generate profits quickly because even after all gambling is very high risk, if the only way we can do to get money quickly by gambling then most likely we can lose everything

I am a typical gambler for almost a year now. And from that, I have learned the negative side of me. I AM GREEDY. YES. Whenever I win, I want more thus ended up being a loser. But hey, it is hard to control greed but you can lessen that emotion by setting up a target profit, have a positive mindset.

Another thing, at first I am depositing money to gamble. But I have learned now, I don't deposit anymore. Thus, earning some bucks even if I don't deposit. That's a good part, not need to get some money from my pocket, from my salary but still I manage to gamble and manage to payout.

A negative review will always be associated with gambling since most gambling are going to end up lossing more than they can earn. People review badly when they're affected. That those negative review are present doesn't automatically make gambling bad especially when you don't over do it and can have control over your decision making by not getting addicted. Those trying to invest into educating themselves and acquiring the required knowledge plus luck been on their side can make gambling a professionally source of their income and might be successful.

My lesson so far has revolved around been able to control my emotions and not letting my greed make a fool out of me. Supposedly I was to give an advice to those trying to profit from the industry it'll be the same, (control your emotions).

I learned that despite what you do, your loved ones will never, I mean ever let you suffer alone. I am so thankful that I have a partner in life where she accepts me as what I am and despite the addiction I have, she continues to love me and even helped me to take myself out of my addiction.

Basically if she doesn't help you to get out of your addiction, your relationship will not go any further as you both need the funds to take care of your future. Any ways, I see that it would be good as well to convince your partner to play and enjoy betting platform as well. Then all the profits should be shared by both of you. But you should also consider becoming aware of your situation to avoid losing too much that is supposed to be for your future.

The fact is not the case, even I once took the final path to gamble to be able to fix financial problems. Indeed, gambling is not the right choice for the problem but when we can do it with a mentality and good confidence, then we will most likely get the luck. But still, when you have other more methods then gambling should be immediately abandoned and I don't recommend that if you just force yourself to keep gambling without any good preparation.

I think the best things I learn from gambling is being patient and learning to control my greed being contented with what I have and being thankful even for little things that you would get.
And also there is no short cut for being rich unless you're one of those who have a huge luck on their side thatcould win some big jackpot.
Learn to accept your mistake and take it as an experience so you could try to avoid it in the future.

Yes, many will say negative about gambling. But in reality, a mature person will not be dragged into gambling addiction. I learned that there is no easy money. There is no quick way to become rich. I learned how to be contented and be happy win or lose.
Those who don’t like gambling will say bad about gambling and those who like it will say  positive but every one has different experiences with gambling but I think gambling is a kind of job in which you will earn money along with your own effort. I got one lesson from that nothing is for free you will have to struggle for it and work hard for it.

Gambling has a good side to it and a negative side like people don't like gambling they will continue to denounce me as a gambler even if I'm not addicted too, but in playing casino gambling there is always a good business and strategy not just playing gambling then getting a lot of money but there are several factors that are in gambling, let others talk what is important we work without distressing others.

I learned how to control myself while gambling, how to use my current balance effectively, and how to take my player psychology out of control. In gaining these experiences, it became the most costly and most painful psychology control for me, because I learned to control both the gain and loss psychology in the process. Even though it is a very difficult, troublesome and a bit costly process, I know how to control psychology today, and when I gamble, I can control my own psychology in case of possible big wins or big losses. Gambling actually taught me so much and contributed a lot. When played correctly and effectively, without exaggeration, gambling can be both a fun and effective information tool.

I really didn't learn much. All the things you can learn in the gambling industry are the simple truths of life like the ones that it's easy to manipulate people with promises of money, that people are greedy, that people are easily addicted, that by trying to get to the top they will bury themselves and their families.
I'm not a pro gambler and not aspiring to be but I've seen people get dragged to the bottom by hopes and delusions.

One of the many things that I have learned as a gambler is to know your limits whenever you are playing or betting your money in the line. Knowing your limits as a gambler will also help you to grow the critical thinking of yourself in other things and also you will be able to think about different perspective of different people who are doesn't the same with your perspective. I have also learned that if you want to grow your money you must look for a decent job and don't just gamble your money just because you want an easy or instant money. Gambling teach me so many lesson just like for example on how to think twice whenever I am gambling and I can use it in my actual life.

I'm just started in gambling in the past month and so far it was more of a bad experience but sometimes I win the bet and gain a good amount of profit and that's whats make me continue in a gamble to win,
I think winning is the thing that makes us addicted and continues doing gambling even though it was so risky at all the time.
Yes it is the reason why we are getting addicted into it. We are expecting that if we won consecutive times at that time, it will continue and will give more profit but all things has an end and so with gambling too.

The problem is if a gambler is winning consecutive times, they tend to become more greedy instead of stopping and as a result they end up losing all of their money which is the problem. We are the same, most of my experience in gambling is bad but I learn some good attitudes too because of it.
Self control is what I learn from gambling, it is expected that we will play more if we experience consecutive times of winning and there is effect to our psychology. There is a greed that forming because we will encouraged to continue our bets. The self control will help us to have limitation where we consider the risks while we are playing in online gambling sites.

It may sound funny to many, but I am proud to say that I have learnt better money management as a gambler.
How is this possible? Many will ask as gambling is always associated with spending.
For me, I learnt how to spend my money wisely and to restrict myself from unnecessarily money spending. It because when gambling, if I lose, I Never trying paying again. Through it, I cut down impulsive spending.

Then I think the essence of being a gambler isn't with you if you just easily surrenders in winning after losing just one time. Because for me, what I learn in gambling is to not just accept the losses from our investment, we should always take into consideration that at least we could retrieve even not the hundred percent of our loss but to not go home without anything in your pocket. Though, this might be risky, but through this I see myself as a gambler who knows the risk in gambling.

I learned that gambling is a test of character, if you cannot control it you are going to lose badly in terms of monetary and your character, it's also a trap, if you cannot control it, it will control you and you will become its slave and it will impose everything on you until you become nothing.
