Gambling thought me to be fearless to continue betting despite the inassurance of winning. Though it leads me to be hanged for hours of continuous gambling, all I felt was fun tho. Hence, gambling is somehow negative indeed, but it gives you fun and excitement that trading or holding cant.
Even if the hanging is excitement and freshness for you but doesn’t forget about the money that you can make with gambling so gaming taught me how to make money with enjoyment. It is a source of income for so many people the same as me so I use gambling to make money and also enjoy my spare time in gambling it’s the best way to spend your free time for me. 
Topic: What did you learn as a gambler? - page 2. (Read 2785 times)
Okay, gambling teaches me a lesson not to play, and when you choose to play with any excuse, you will end up playing unknowingly, making you a gambling addict. At least that's what I knew when I was involved in daily gambling, and even so after quitting gambling there was always the possibility of returning so that the real lesson could be learned was about self-control.
But you have not learned correctly about gambling and addiction in gambling as people do not get addicted in gambling if they do care while gambling. Many sensible people are gambling and they know that how to manage the timing and the money which he have for gambling. They are playing from a longer time and they still are not addicted like others to lose all of their wealth in gambling. Learned how to limits and value the purpose of your stay are the best things things to achieved from this activities.

I have learnt many things and one of them is we can't really ever leave gambling. Ever. Period. Maybe we can control it, but can't leave completely.
Now, the effects of gambling is limited when we play with own funds and the real problem begins only when we start to borrow funds for it. That's when it's going to bite us. Never, ever ask for money. Busted food money? Starve for a day, work hard and earn that money back. The day you will learn that there's no one else from whom you can take money and going into debt trap, you will just be fine.

I knew I couldn't underestimate myself as a gambler. I thought I could easily deal with myself and just be able to control myself. But after a couple of days I tried to leave gambling, the urge for gambling was so strong and then I realised how I could go against myself and it wasn't that easy to quit. So I just stopped completely what I did and now I'm just playing here and there only a few trades on games.
I have realised recently that gambling has taught me how to keep my mind cool no matter how bad is the situation. Patience is key to succed in gambling. I also learner to control my spending and understand my limit. Earlier I used to be careless when I was gambling now it has changed a lot.
Suppose I were given the opportunity to share a lesson about gambling with those who have never gambled, maybe I just want to say there is no need to gamble because there are many other more ways for you to make money. But, what is happening right now is that it is difficult for me to find people who have never gambled, and when they have known gambling then at least they have their own way of life and understand what should be left and not.
Gambling is not a good way to earn money. This is not your point of view .But is not the perspective of individuals who have actually earned much through this method. In the long run gaming is not reliable but I have found that people are getting addicted to it. Moreover some others claim that they gamble just because of fun.

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?

If anything, gambling allowed me to discover the true power of randomness
And how far it can go and take us, in both negative and positive directions (in terms of wins and losses). Speaking in more concrete terms, it is the extreme variance of random events (remember, random is not uniform) that we should be well aware of and particularly careful with when dealing with such events. It is not regular outcomes that typically make our lives difficult and unpleasant but statistical outliers (black swans in Nassim Taleb's terms) that ultimately come to ruin us. Simply put, randomness can be your best friend as well as worst enemy
One prime example would be dice and an approach to playing it known as martingale. Most players massively underestimate the power of variance in this game when using such a strategy. They can play for a day or two, and then proceed to erroneously assume without critically evaluating the assumption that they are never going to see longer losing streaks. So they continue to stake more and more in pursuit of greater profits until variance finally catches up with their greed (which knows no limits) and gets them completely unprepared
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
Absolutely agree with this point unless you know how to change the odds in your favor
I just remembered jet another important thing I've learned as a gambler. If you bet on something to happen, and the probability of its happening is high, you are not going to win big. In fact, you can win only a fraction of your bet, sometimes less than 10% of its size. To win big you should go against the crowd(in sports betting) or against the odds(in games like dice). Of course you shouldn't risk more money than you can afford to lose, in the first place, but if that part is settled, the game is more fun when you go against the odds. And this applies to some things in real life too.
Due to many replies here and would surely take me long to read all of this so i'd just base this reply on the op. Most gamblers learned as a gambler is that gamblers losing percentage is higher than winning percentage but it would also provide you fun, satisfaction and other.

I learned in gambling that it shouldn't be treated as a source of income because it can wipe out your money in an instant.
I learned many things on gambling like self control, proper discipline etc. but when I start in gambling, what I think is gambling can be considered as another source of income but I'm wrong. I got lost so many times in gambling and in the end, I learned that it can't be a source of income. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm a newbie at that time
and at least now I learned to my mistakes.

and at least now I learned to my mistakes.Basically if you have allot of money, it is a good way to challenge yourself and to test your luck. If you are gambling in a daily basis and you hope it could make you a millionaire then probably not. What you need is a job that will enable you to live and if you've already saved allot, then try to trust your luck then.
Thats human kind sometimes they want to be a millionaire quickly yes they can get it with gambling but of course it won't be easy if we don't have luck like gods lol

actually most of us old time gamblers had already this realization,and not allowing to lose all our money again.I learned many things on gambling like self control, proper discipline etc. but when I start in gambling, what I think is gambling can be considered as another source of income but I'm wrong
we are all wrong,specially us who has already accept our mistakes and dont let it happen again,i am proud to be one of those also. I got lost so many times in gambling and in the end, I learned that it can't be a source of income. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm a newbie at that time and at least now I learned to my mistakes.
and that is what we need to accept for us to be saved from becoming a bad ass gambler.Congrats mate as i am also done in that stage. and at least now I learned to my mistakes.

Gamble from time to time and don't find it a source of income, particularly not your main source of income. Gamble on the things you know about. If you're playing sports than betting on the sports that you understand and obey. Don't look at the odds and make their assumptions. A serious player is playing single matches and only the matches they know about. That's the only way you can make money out of it.
Never lose your money, yes I've really learned this from being a gambler. Maybe it's very easy to make money from gambling but it doesn't really make it and you're at the highest risk of losing all your money so when I want to place bets mostly I'll try not to deposit any new money I'll just play with what I've got and if I'm lucky to win I can make it big if I don't have to.
Never lose too much that is the right thing. We cannot avoid the fact that we are prone to any losses, because we cannot perfect each game , I mean I think the online casino for example has a unpredictable result so I think we need to think that in every game losing is part of the game, but losing too much is bad and we need to change our strategy .
It's true that there's no gambler that is always on the successful path because there are rough roads that we'll take. But there will always be successful gamblers that applied what they've learn and corrected the mistake they've committed.
Responsibilities over hobby is what makes you a better man but before doing it, always set aside the other things and settle it so that you gamble at peace without anything to worry.

i love gambling after doing my responsibility as a good father to my kids and wife . this makes me gamble with a peace of mind and that is good too because i can act and think properly .
it makes me more succesful on my short term goals . still it does not mean that you will win like me if you do that strat because like what you guys said , there is no always succesful when playing a gambling and even the pro themselve do also know how to loose .
Despite of the bad thought that it's getting from most people, you are proving them wrong that it won't change the way you provide things for your family and also, they can learn from you as a gambler.
