In principle I think that only self-control and some limits can save us from things that are not wanted, especially large defeats, it is clear that if they cannot apply any limits at all to their gambling then they will definitely feel a losing streak, none other than that because there is absolutely no prevention they do, they will not be able to resist their curiosity and also if they lose, they will definitely continue to play until they get what they want, but even if they win in my opinion the amount of victory will not always be able to cover the amount of defeat they have sacrificed at the beginning.

Of course, you need to have a plan and control over your emotions if you want to save yourself from big losses in gambling. Do not expect that gambling will be kind hearted to you and will let you save your money in case you're not in control over your finances. People lose money in gambling without knowing and they come to know when they have already lost a major portion of their life savings in gambling.

It's a matter of what is better or best for them I think that only they themselves will know, sometimes some advice will not work well if the person we give advice is completely unaware of what is best for himself. Haha yes maybe they think that the casino will return all their losses by giving a much bigger win, but on the other hand it's just their hallucination and there is no guarantee whatsoever and certainty for them to win, obviously the final result is always unpredictable and that means you also don't know whether you will win or lose again right? There is absolutely no rule of mercy from the casino for the gamblers, what is more certain is that the casino will be happy when more gamblers are excessive because there they will take a lot of profit from the losing gamblers, and as proof of the fact is that they have more losses than wins, is this statement not reasonable?

Therefore I think there is no reason for them to defend their wrong mindset, it's better for you to realize from now on than the number of your losses is increasing, and it's better to be more assertive or even increase your strength in terms of limits, because that's the only thing that can save you, anyway on the other hand if you are lucky you will also win.
A general rule is that the house will always be in profit. The more a gambler gambles at a casino, the more money that casino earns. But not everyone only loses there. Many people also get big rewards form the casino. In gambling control is in your own hands. In this platform, the gambler who will be more attractive, the more likely he is to lose. You must try to limit yourself. Consecutive winning is never possible in gambling. A gambler may win 5 or 10 games in a row but he will definitely lose the next game. So I think every gambler should develop such realization that he does not consider gambling as a source of more income. Moreover, those who are patient here will be able to survive in this platform for a long time.

Yes it is true that only luck can lead them to victory while on the other hand whoever it is will never know when they will be lucky, so what is your reason so that you behave excessively on your gambling? I think there is no other reason than you are putting too high hopes on opportunities that basically do not have any certainty, and also on the other hand there is nothing better because even if you have won I think that is not the end of gambling by going home with victory, and what usually often happens is that when you win then greed will play a role in that condition, surely you think of getting something bigger. I think that kind of cycle will never end, and always end up losing.

When you know that gambling is luck based and there is no control over luck, then I feel really shocked to see that people spend and risk all their money in gambling, meaning they are willing to risk all money only to see if the luck is favoring them or not  Huh
I would not call it a risk taking behavior but rather i would call it poor planning where one may put a lot of money in single games and bets and in case of loss, the money is just all gone.

But on the other hand they don't know that there are downturns or unexpected things that are waiting for them ahead, but yes on the other hand I'm sure it doesn't mean they don't fully know about the bad effects that will befall them, surely they have also heard of some people who have experienced problems as a result of gambling, but the problem is that they are too ambitious and have high hopes for victory so that they seem to think that the bad effects that will befall them like nothing or they don't think too much about it. Yes, maybe at that moment the other person was really lucky, and as I said before, I'm sure that person must have sacrificed many defeats just to get that one victory. Not applying self-control does not mean we can't win, it doesn't matter if you don't want to apply self-control but as long as you are ready for all the risks you will receive including the number of unexpected defeats. That is the importance of self-control because with it, you will not suffer too much defeat. Yes, it should be like that if they have gotten pleasure or even victory then they should stop, because it is also for their safety, but yes it is not easy my friend, the temptation there is very large.
Being too ambitious and having high hopes of winning will make them forget that the purpose of gambling is not to win but just to gamble and have fun. But if they can win, that is a bonus for them. If they can control themselves well, they will know that it is just a test for them whether they can stop themselves from gambling after winning or whether they will just continue gambling because they want to obtain or pursue other wins. This is where they really have to realize that they have to stop immediately before their greed gets too big and tell them to continue gambling in pursuit of other wins. They are lucky if they can still control themselves because they can stop after winning and rest to reduce their tension and also celebrate their win. But those who cannot control themselves or lose self-control will try to get other wins so that their winnings will also be used for gambling until finally they actually spend all their money, including their winnings.

Yes that's right, basically there are still quite a lot of other activities that are also fun but not risky, they can go to tourist attractions with family or friends or do other activities that are quite fun but positive or like gardening behind the house. Honestly for myself if I am in a boring condition then I prefer to watch movies or play games, not that I don't want to gamble but in that condition I maximize to resist the temptation and curiosity that is in my mind, I am already quite bored when I see the final results that are always disappointing, therefore the first step when I am bored I immediately open one of the games on my cellphone or watch fil, with that then I will forget about gambling. I think one of the reasons why they don't seem to care too much about losing is because their expectations are too high to get a win when in fact in every session the results are always disappointing, but yes basically it is difficult to be able to give advice like that to them, and maybe we can just let it go, I'm sure over time they will definitely be able to realize their mistakes, especially when they have experienced the bitterest thing in their gambling, so maybe it's just a matter of time that will answer it.
Doing other things or activities that are not related to gambling can be done to divert attention from gambling. And doing other activities doesn't really require money. At least they can choose what activities they can do so they can really reduce their gambling activities. If I were in a condition like that, maybe I would go fishing with my friends or alone to calm my mind while enjoying the natural scenery, which could help me refresh my mind. And all this time, it has really helped me to be able to refresh my mind well and divert my attention from gambling. They should be able to realize how much they have lost and will not try to use other money to try to recover their losses. That will only increase the number of losses even more, even though they can't get the big win. Maybe they need to lose very big and spend all their money until they finally realize that what they did was wrong and can have the desire to improve what they have done.

If one can control one's emotions, greed, excessive desire, then it is possible to gain something good from the gambling site. In gambling we tend to rely more on our luck than our strategy. If we win a bet depending on luck then our greed increases manifold and due to extra greed we increase our bet money and again bet depending on luck but luck is not always helpful. In the second step, when luck does not help, the gambler loses both the profit and the capital. We must remember that gambling is not only dependent on luck. In gambling half we have to rely on luck and the other half we have to rely on our gambling skills. Every gambler wouldn't have lost so much money if they weren't so greedy in gambling.
If we cannot control ourselves in gambling, of course we will very easily lose the money used in the bets we play, even though to be able to win at gambling we have to have luck, because even though we are lucky in gambling and we cannot control the games we play, of course we we will add more bets to get an even bigger win, but we won't be able to get it. All we get is losses and the money we spend gambling.
I agree with your opinion, when we gamble, luck is really needed to be able to win our gambling and we should not be greedy when gambling.

In principle I think that only self-control and some limits can save us from things that are not wanted, especially large defeats, it is clear that if they cannot apply any limits at all to their gambling then they will definitely feel a losing streak, none other than that because there is absolutely no prevention they do, they will not be able to resist their curiosity and also if they lose, they will definitely continue to play until they get what they want, but even if they win in my opinion the amount of victory will not always be able to cover the amount of defeat they have sacrificed at the beginning.

I think there is no other reason than you are putting too high hopes on opportunities that basically do not have any certainty, and also on the other hand there is nothing better because even if you have won I think that is not the end of gambling by going home with victory, and what usually often happens is that when you win then greed will play a role in that condition, surely you think of getting something bigger.

Gambling is dependent on luck, but we can be on the profiting side if we know when to stop and take a break. Most of us don't follow it, just the wins keep us high and we go for increased bet value. The same ends our wager at the shortest. To be on the safer side better choice is to spend on sports betting than casino games.

Sports betting is good only if you know what you are doing. You can bet blindly on purely luck-based games like slots and you'll get the same results as if you were maximally concentrated, but try do that with sports betting and you will lose all your bets.

And regarding "know when to stop", we never know. That's life. Smiley

Yes, they seem to be motivated by some of the victories achieved by others, so that makes them very ambitious to get the same fate, they assume that it turns out that only by gambling they can get a victory like others, the problem here is that they only see the victory of others but do not ask how many defeats the person has suffered, I'm sure if they ask them they will at least be quite surprised because it turns out that the person has to sacrifice a lot of defeats first just to get the occasional victory. I think it's because they are too eager to see the chances of winning that they forget that there are greater risks that they never expected. Their mindset is very contrary to the actual concept of gambling and also to the facts that usually occur, they should gamble with the intention of nothing more than just entertainment, with that then I think nothing will happen to them - things that are not wanted. Yes gambling is absolutely not a place to make money, it's okay if you want to do that but on the condition that you have to be prepared for all the downturns, this is not a business that has a more definite chance if you work hard, still the final result always depends on your luck, I think only losers have that kind of mindset.
If they think that just by gambling, they can win, they should be prepared to experience disappointment because gambling will not bring them wins very often so they should understand that. Other people get their wins because they are really lucky and deserve to get it, while we haven't been able to get the luck we want but that doesn't mean we can use gambling more often. Without good self-control, we will only experience defeat more often and will not be able to win like other people do. So we have to know ourselves and just gamble as usual to get pleasure and after we have finished or have had pleasure, we must be able to stop gambling immediately. And we also don't deserve to use a lot of money to win, especially if we still need that money to meet our daily needs. That is why we have to have a good mindset so as not to use gambling as a way to make money, especially as we have seen many people who have experienced defeats without being able to recover from their losses because they continue to experience bigger losses.

But on the other hand they don't know that there are downturns or unexpected things that are waiting for them ahead, but yes on the other hand I'm sure it doesn't mean they don't fully know about the bad effects that will befall them, surely they have also heard of some people who have experienced problems as a result of gambling, but the problem is that they are too ambitious and have high hopes for victory so that they seem to think that the bad effects that will befall them like nothing or they don't think too much about it. Yes, maybe at that moment the other person was really lucky, and as I said before, I'm sure that person must have sacrificed many defeats just to get that one victory. Not applying self-control does not mean we can't win, it doesn't matter if you don't want to apply self-control but as long as you are ready for all the risks you will receive including the number of unexpected defeats. That is the importance of self-control because with it, you will not suffer too much defeat. Yes, it should be like that if they have gotten pleasure or even victory then they should stop, because it is also for their safety, but yes it is not easy my friend, the temptation there is very large.

In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you're going to want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of what you're doing and what you're doing. For  people who are willing to spend a lot of money just to win, I honestly don't understand what they are thinking, even though it is clear that their intention is to get a win but strangely enough defeat seems like no problem even though if you count it maybe the amount is very large and also not necessarily if they win later the amount of victory can cover the defeat that has been sacrificed. Therefore, the point is not to expect something that is difficult to achieve, after all, casinos make gambling not to give money for free to you, they also want to make a profit, which is why many suffer defeat, we must learn from the downturn of others so that we also do not get into the same hole.
If we have a lot of free time, we shouldn't use that time to gamble, especially with the risk of losing a lot, so we should be able to think about what we can do in that free time and not just gamble. Indeed, we can use gambling to fill our free time and win, but we have to remember that we can also experience losses so we don't need to gamble all day. Those who often gamble will not understand that they have experienced a lot of losses and it is time to take a break to reduce their tension. If they win, they should also be able to calculate how much their winnings can cover the losses they have incurred. But the number of wins is still smaller than the number of losses. If we can understand that gambling is just entertainment, we will only try to get pleasure from gambling and will not gamble too often. We must be wise gamblers so that we can control ourselves well and avoid losing a lot.

Yes that's right, basically there are still quite a lot of other activities that are also fun but not risky, they can go to tourist attractions with family or friends or do other activities that are quite fun but positive or like gardening behind the house. Honestly for myself if I am in a boring condition then I prefer to watch movies or play games, not that I don't want to gamble but in that condition I maximize to resist the temptation and curiosity that is in my mind, I am already quite bored when I see the final results that are always disappointing, therefore the first step when I am bored I immediately open one of the games on my cellphone or watch fil, with that then I will forget about gambling.

Aside this side of my view, it is always wise when you have to gamble tactically in the manner that you can take control of your exciting pace just as OP has illustrated else the game may turns biased against your excitements.
If it is that easy to be wise in gambling then many gamblers could have been winners today. Not millionaires but they may be sitting somewhere in Hawaii drinking their beers.
But it's difficult to be wiser than the gambling site. Most of the time emotions consume us like greed, and ego, and could also be envy when we see someone share their winnings.
Madness will always get the better of us when we are losing, it's the time when we chase our losses while not thinking ahead. I think I have been in that position many times where all I can say to myself is to stop doing it but my hands will just keep on pressing the bet button because I want my money back.
It's wrong, foolish, stupid, and yet the feeling of satisfactory is also there especially if we achieved our goal which is to win back what was taken from us.

I think the word wise sounds inappropriate when it is brought up in a discussion about gambling and what someone has learnt so far. I know that some will now argue against me, but wise is a big word. If someone says "it would be wiser to do this or that", that person recommends doing a lot of things differently or refrain from doing a lot of things and instead do other things. Going back to gambling regularly, believing that acting wise can change the outcome on a slot machine doesn't sound very wise to me. It is rational to understand that gambling is not for earning income, but for experiencing pleasure.
I share your doubts about gambling "wisdom". Taking measured risks, especially with slot machines, can have unforeseen effects. A random method that makes money for the house cannot be beaten. Pure knowledge implies that gambling is uncertain and can lose. There are some people who make a living gambling and they do win, but it's not the same thing as this. They play games that require talent, preparation, and psychological awareness, not luck. Even then, their "wins" come from honed talents and years of experience, not wisdom. To assume their success implies conventional wisdom? That's false

I couldn't have phrased it any better than that! Wink Yes some make a living gambling, but I am not sure what you are referring to. Playing poker for example? Even in poker there are people who suffer from losing streaks for so long that they can't bear it at some point anymore. Making a living off of gambling is often times still luck at the perfect moment. When someone grinds through tournaments and wins the small ones because he is skilled but gets eliminated from the big ones because of bad luck, skill can still be outpaced in significance by luck or bad luck for that matter.

Going back to gambling regularly, believing that acting wise can change the outcome on a slot machine doesn't sound very wise to me. It is rational to understand that gambling is not for earning income, but for experiencing pleasure.

Sometimes also depend on what the circumstances are,yesterday for example I got a lot of euphoria (not the Calvin Clein perfume  Grin) as I upgraded my account at Stake at a new level,I had 75 dollars and got another 65 dollars as a bonus and I lost it all because of that euphoria,I thought I am going to win as I am just an upgraded level of myself  Grin but in reality I kept losing while having false hopes.

That is not wise at all of what I did yesterday night,a wise person would have immediately stopped at that moment,placed some sport bets and enjoy the day yet I got and lost it all,it is difficult to be wise nowadays.
Yh sometimes there is this excitement that a gambler will have in the sense that he is happy about the bet he made and he is certain that he will win but most times it doesn't work out that way. But it believe its not something bad to be excited at least a gambler is suppose to be positive on whatever bet he wants to make. Doubt and unbelief is what makes most gambler loose a good opportunities that could change their life. Perhaps you were carried away by the excitemtn and this led to not do a proper analysis on the bet you want to place. I dont know, but i want to ask. Where you drinking before then or did you take some excitment pills?  Cheesy

As a gambler, let me ask you this, do you feel something every time you gamble? Do you feel an excitement with every promotion or offer made by the casino? Gambling is indeed created to offer games and make a profit, but the one getting attracted to the casino is the gamblers who are getting mixed emotions and want to go back to gambling houses.
It's called adrenaline, every gambler don't want to lose their money for nothing and if they gamble in a skill based games, they will try to play as best as possible to win. Correct, feeling excited and adrenaline while gambling could be a reason why someone can't stop to gamble, but it's not a problem when you only gamble what you can afford to lose.

I don't think that gambling was created that way. Getting attracted to gambling is an emotion that every individual gambler gets because they like the feeling of winning. It is our own personal emotion that makes us go back to a gambling site. Even with losing more money, people will continue to gamble to experience the enjoyment of winning in a gambling site.

I disagree, gambling casino is created to make profit.  And in order to make profit, these casino should be interesting and be able to capture peoples interest and attention.  The fact that gambling casinos offer a chance for individual to win huge amount, it is not due to the person's emotion that triggers their interest, but the offer made by the casino.  The gamblers emotion just follow to what the casino offers.

As a gambler, let me ask you this, do you feel something every time you gamble? Do you feel an excitement with every promotion or offer made by the casino? Gambling is indeed created to offer games and make a profit, but the one getting attracted to the casino is the gamblers who are getting mixed emotions and want to go back to gambling houses.
Let me; from my own personal experiences say that not all the time does a gambler feel the excitement of gambling, because today, we have alot of gamblers who no longer care about the real purpose of gambling, all they just want is to make money, making money, which is exactly as winning games have become their only means of excitement in gambling, and I honestly do not blame them, because anyone who takes gambling too serious and does not watch him or herself in terms of level of involvement, a time surely will come when the natural fun of gambling will totally be forgetten, at such a level, a gambler can only be excited when ever he won his game or bets, but moody, possible even angry, when ever he or she lost.

But then, I would say it's a bad thing, since naturally, nobody enjoys losing money, at the end, we all are always excited when we win, but then, it's important for us to always find excitement in our gambling activities no matter the outcome, for that is what proves that we actually love what we are doing aside from making money from it.

There's a lot to always talked about when it's all about gambling, leaning never ends as we all commonly believed, in gambling also, I've learnt alot regarding taking risk i gambling, using money for gambling, fighting at the course of gambling, earning with gambling and losing money as well in gambling, all these would have taught as many of us a lifetime lesson we may never forget when it comes to gambling because we have witnessed how everything is being done when we fall into the category of those affected by one of them.

What are the lessons we can learn from gambling? First, of course, the things that other gamblers have done wrong, I guess. We can learn from the wrong strategies or things they have done in gambling. As surely as the winner is the loser, which should be stopped and come back another time.

What are the other things I learned in gambling? Let's not chase our losses just because we want to get them back when we win again in our betting. If we are unlucky, we should stop and instead take a break first.

We can learn alot from other's people's experience in gambling because that is what we should always seek after than learning from our own mistakes which is apparently going to be in the hard way, we keep learning in life and not about gambling alone, but we have to always take advantage of every learning opportunities we have while gambling because some may be helpful to us and be a once in a lifetime.

Yes that's right, you don't have to try it to get experience that is used as a lesson, as you said learning from other people's experiences can also be done by not trying it yourself, because if we try it ourselves we are afraid that we cannot control ourselves properly so that we will experience worse things than other people who experience bad things too. But if there is someone who really wants to experience gambling and wants to feel its bad effects, it is very silly. Because like that is not a reasonable reason.

Utilizing the opportunity that exists is better than coming down to try it. For example, there is one person who is affected by the bad effects of gambling which is very severe, this can be used as an opportunity for us to see that if we cannot control ourselves properly, then the fatal impact will be like this one person. That way we don't need to come down to try gambling even if it's called an experiment, and in my opinion there is no need to try it with things that have clear bad effects, just knowing and not interfering is better.

Aside this side of my view, it is always wise when you have to gamble tactically in the manner that you can take control of your exciting pace just as OP has illustrated else the game may turns biased against your excitements.
If it is that easy to be wise in gambling then many gamblers could have been winners today. Not millionaires but they may be sitting somewhere in Hawaii drinking their beers.
But it's difficult to be wiser than the gambling site. Most of the time emotions consume us like greed, and ego, and could also be envy when we see someone share their winnings.
Madness will always get the better of us when we are losing, it's the time when we chase our losses while not thinking ahead. I think I have been in that position many times where all I can say to myself is to stop doing it but my hands will just keep on pressing the bet button because I want my money back.
It's wrong, foolish, stupid, and yet the feeling of satisfactory is also there especially if we achieved our goal which is to win back what was taken from us.

If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.
That is the perfect way to treat gambling and to be a winner though it is impossible
to assure about winning double instead sometimes taking many shot before it become reality.

The next thing that rings in your ear is you can still win another or more, that's the devil whipsering, the art of gambling is knowing when to stop.

The only game where you have some power is in Poker, not the online one, this is the best game in casinos, as making profits off of bad players is possible.
Yes , that is also correct that devil keeps whispering for us to continue gambling
even if we are already in winning and can take it out for profit.
Quote
As for Other games, You are at the mercy of the house.

No one actually visits the casino to have fun, you gotta trick the mind, I like to think of it has a fun night out and I am going to spend a few hundred dollars and have a good time and if I win it's a bonus, like I've said, you gotta trick the mind.

Always remember this, you are there to win a game where its statistically impossible to win at, it's not impossible to not understand this about gambling, a wise man once said, "if you want to make money with gambling, own a casino".
I don't believe that there are no one who completely intended to have fun in gambling because
 there are many that only want to enjoy , but of course with a hope to win if lucky yet they are accepting the defeat once the capital is lost.

Can't agree more to this. However, doubling that amount of your capital may not be enough for them. I know some people who allocates a budget to burn in gambling they don't care if they will eventually lose it, the goal is to win as much as they can without any plans when to stop.
$200 might just be a small amount for someone and they can afford to burn it in one gambling session.

The next thing that rings in your ear is you can still win another or more, that's the devil whipsering, the art of gambling is knowing when to stop.

Knowing when to stop is what we call a responsible gambling. What's hilarious about it is that, after you emptied your pocket it is easier to stop than when you're winning.

It is possible that it can all happen or the point is that they can carry such a mindset because they want to get something instant, they think that they can get money instantly by just gambling and without having to sweat a lot like a real job, when on the other hand if they understand all the concepts of gambling and also with what is meant by luck I think they will not have such a mindset. Yes, I understand that there are winning opportunities that can surprise you and give you great excitement but don't let you equate gambling with real and promising business results, in business it is true that the more we struggle and try hard, there will be balanced reciprocity, meaning positive things or success but in gambling there is absolutely no such element, why? You should already understand that in gambling everything goes randomly for the results, and that is why the more often you gamble, the more you will lose.
Most people will immediately think about getting a lot of money from gambling because they see several people who have succeeded in getting it. They also want to feel like they are getting money from gambling so they continue to gamble. They forget the concept of gambling, that gambling is only entertainment for everyone but they have to use money to get entertainment and if they want to use gambling as a place to make money, it won't be easy to get. Indeed, there will be a chance to win, but they should be able to think that the chance will not be too big compared to the chance of losing. And it is clearly different from business because in running a business, we have the opportunity to make a profit so we should not use gambling to make money. We should make money from a more promising business than gambling.

Yes, they seem to be motivated by some of the victories achieved by others, so that makes them very ambitious to get the same fate, they assume that it turns out that only by gambling they can get a victory like others, the problem here is that they only see the victory of others but do not ask how many defeats the person has suffered, I'm sure if they ask them they will at least be quite surprised because it turns out that the person has to sacrifice a lot of defeats first just to get the occasional victory. I think it's because they are too eager to see the chances of winning that they forget that there are greater risks that they never expected. Their mindset is very contrary to the actual concept of gambling and also to the facts that usually occur, they should gamble with the intention of nothing more than just entertainment, with that then I think nothing will happen to them - things that are not wanted. Yes gambling is absolutely not a place to make money, it's okay if you want to do that but on the condition that you have to be prepared for all the downturns, this is not a business that has a more definite chance if you work hard, still the final result always depends on your luck, I think only losers have that kind of mindset.


Yes, that's for sure, whoever will not want to experience defeat, that's the importance of applying self-control, there is no other way you can do for prevention except just that, basically if you want to win means you also have to be ready to lose, don't just want to win but not ready to lose, because this is gambling not a business that has certainty for the final results of your struggle. So please think, all decisions are in your own hands, so with that I'm sure you also know what you should do if you don't want to experience the downturn like addicts.
That's what we will get when playing gambling. If we are lucky, we will definitely win and vice versa. But some people are willing to accept the risk of losing even a lot of money because they still believe they can win one day so that makes them continue gambling. We must be able to think clearly to use gambling properly and not try to exceed the limits we have created. We have learned a lot as gamblers, both from our experiences and other people's experiences, so it should make us a little wiser than before, which will be useful for us in deciding to gamble and stop gambling.

In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you're going to want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of what you're doing and what you're doing. For  people who are willing to spend a lot of money just to win, I honestly don't understand what they are thinking, even though it is clear that their intention is to get a win but strangely enough defeat seems like no problem even though if you count it maybe the amount is very large and also not necessarily if they win later the amount of victory can cover the defeat that has been sacrificed. Therefore, the point is not to expect something that is difficult to achieve, after all, casinos make gambling not to give money for free to you, they also want to make a profit, which is why many suffer defeat, we must learn from the downturn of others so that we also do not get into the same hole.
