Topic: Where is the fun when you lose your money? - page 4. (Read 2599 times)

That is a career, becoming an influencer, advertiser is a career anyone can take up, its absolutely different from gambling, becoming an influencer, or in other words, advertiser, is a career, what you choose to advertise doesn't matter, and the fact that you are advertising that thing does not mean that is what you are into or do for a living, for example, there are several of us on this forum who are not gamblers, but still, we advertise gambling casinos through our signature ad spaces, so it is with every influencer or advertisers too, though for those that advertising casinos, they usually sometimes do gamble, but we can't compare t their gambling to that of an ordinary person out there, influencers make money as influencers, so, even if they lose money to gambling, they are still good because gambling is not the main source of income for them.

Now, coming back to what makes some people turn or make gambling their source of income, alot of situations can lead to this, and one of those is lack of real life jobs, or lacking the educational qualifications to secure any good paying job, and also, when a person doesn't have money to start up a business, they can easily turn to gambling as a source of income, hoping they can win enough to atleast, start a business, but the unfortunate thing is that, most end up getting addicted before they win any good amount of money.

Yeah, if anything it would be a one-off that makes you a millionaire. Very different to have a steady pay check every month like you have in a job.

So, I don't really know why people think of gambling as a job, or income making. It could be just a fantasy I guess.

But there are jobs related to gambling that do pay an income, like the influencers that show videos about it, etc. But that's not really gambling, that's more like advertisements.

Yes that's right, the impact of gambling can destroy all aspects of a person's life, as you said losing balance in finances along with experiencing problems in family relationships and this is a possible bad impact that will definitely occur when someone has entered the addiction phase. This is why we are always advised to treat gambling activities with a good approach and not overdo it, because on the other hand gambling addiction is a disease that is very difficult to overcome because addiction is a disease that exists in a person's mindset where he has difficulty getting out of his bad habits due to the hope and belief of winning or returning something that has been lost.

I think that whoever it is and in any case it is a fact that we all do not like losing money, but the strange thing is that most of the gamblers still treat gambling in the wrong way which will only harm themselves, so in this case it is clear that the blame should be on the gamblers themselves.

You would really be able to experience those things that you have all mentioned from financial until to relationship kind of problem if you do let gambling addiction would really be sticking into you.
Just like on what most people been saying that losing money is never been fun and this is why on the time that it do happens then it would really be best that you wont really be tending to chase it up.
There's no fun on losing money and this is why it would really be better that you should really be that making yourself that wary about those things so that you would really be that making yourself
that get prepared for the things that youwould really be able to encounter so that you would really be avoiding that kind of impulsive feeling towards it because you have expecting something different.

And the realistic approach and mindset some don't want to have , or see but choose to chase after the fantasies of the casinos. That why we have gamblers with emotional instability, financial issues and Relationship problems

Gambling for fun or gain which we all gamble for subconsciously we should understand the fact that casinos are running to make you gain but for profit making off your greed, lack of discipline and impatience. The earlier we  realize this, .we see the need for moderation and good Risk management,  if you really wanna make money work, develop areas of your life not expecting a great win from casino to sponsor your life daily needs.

In a nutshell its fun, noting its subjective to the gambler and his perception, but its always good when you risk what you can afford and accept any outcome because you can't decide, but can only predict.

The anxiety you are talking about isn't found in a lot of gamblers, including me, which means that a lot of us gamblers wouldn't try to chase our losses or get anxious and depressed when we lose our money when gambling and the reason for that are that we don't gamble for money, and we always gamble with a budget that we have decided beforehand and if we lose it, we are done for the day or the week. So yes, we do exist .

However, that doesn't mean we enjoy our losses, lol. If I'm gambling, even if I'm doing it just for fun or to try my luck and I'm a responsible gambler, I would feel bad if I lose my money because I'm a human after all, but that feeling doesn't make me do anything more than just having a small sadness and then it vanishes as soon as I make myself understand that it's gambling and such things are bound to happen in it, let it go.

If you are someone whose really that trying out to make gambling as a source of income then sooner or later you would really be able to tell into yourself that you are really that delusional.
People wont really be able to realize things not until they would really be able to experience for themselves on what gambling truly is and on how it could mess up someones life if you arent that good on having that kind of management when it comes to finances. There's no fun on losing money and this is something which is really that standard or typical. There are really just those people who are really that been that too confident that they could really be able to actually be making themselves winners or becoming rich until that reality would really be slapping into their faces.
This is why it would be always better that you should really be having that realistic approach towards gambling if you dont really like on making yourself that messing up your life with.

Gambling as a source of income never makes sense anyway, I mean we are talking about something that will statistically and mathematically make you lose money 100% guaranteed. Doesn't matter if you win big, if you keep gambling then you will lose. Source of income suggests you are thinking of it as a job, and that means we are talking about something that will be done for many years, even decades.

So, it doesn't matter if you put up 50 cents and win a million dollars, because if you want to keep going, eventually you will lose that million dollars too, you have to get out to make that money and getting out means that it is not source of income, it would be saying like lottery is a source of your income, it is not, it is just luck for once and that's one in a trillion chance.

Well, a person who plays every day is something that I consider quite exaggerated, I would say that if they spend little money then there are no problems, but if it is a person who plays every day and has a huge expense, it is something bad, I think everyone We should see the game as something that entertains us, it can be something therapeutic, but I consider that each gaming session is 10usd or less, and that could be once or twice a week and the person feels good and emotionally well, if The person plays and loses should not deposit more, it is something that we must see, playing in the casino can be something therapeutic if and only if you play in moderation, the idea is that you do not go overboard with your money, because losing money unnecessarily and something that Nobody likes it much, much less the player who is deprived of capital, it can turn the pleasant act of playing into a nightmare.

Although just like you said most gamblers gamble to earn more money but this become fun when you gamble with a little money you can avoid to lose . Most times greediness and selfishness push most gamblers beyond their limit. No matter how perfect your predictions are, you can't be 100% accurate. Managing your lost and winnings together is the only way to have good fun in gambling.

I doubt that you are sure about what you're saying. Gambling can be what you want it to be if that's what you want. Have you thought about why gamers could spend so much money on buying new handles, gaming pads, spend on internet (star link) to mention a few? Most do these for fun but there are some gamers who play so that they can get paid. Its a matter choice, although it may be hard to believe based on the country you come from that someone who staked is money to win or lose just for fun. Yes people do it and it is not something that is unbelievable.

I don't think I'll consider it fun when I see other gamblers crying that they lost, when I'm gambling I want to win the house and not hurt my fellow gamblers. It's the house that we're fighting against to win as they're the ones that are making all the profits. I won't find it funny or fun seeing a fellow gambler lose his money, I'll be hurting inside due to my humanity. There's no fun in losing but there are some gamblers that have fun regardless of if they're losing or winning.

Some gamblers are still new to gambling that they don't have plans on how they should have a budget when gambling. It's due to their lack of planning that they can gamble over their limits and use money that is meant for something else to be gambling. When gamblers lack planning there are planning not to win as winning need planning regardless of if gambling is a game that get decided by luck.

When a gambler gets involved in gambling, he becomes addicted to gambling primarily because of his interest in money. I can never take it for granted that anyone who is into gambling is just for fun no matter what they say because a gambler is involved in gambling because of the interest and greed for money.
When a gambler bets on gambling, he is betting for profit. If the gambler loses on that bet, then basically a kind of anxiety is created in him. He becomes depressed because no matter how much he bets on gambling for pleasure, losing will inevitably create some kind of anxiety in him.

For me, the excitement of gambling lies not just in the possibility of winning but in the whole experience, the anticipation, crafting strategies, and sometimes even the social interactions it involves. I view it as a form of entertainment where, similar to going out for a movie or a concert, the money spent is for the joy and the thrill of the moment. That said, it's super important to gamble within one's limits to ensure it doesn't interfere with daily life or finances.
It's all about finding that personal balance where the fun is in the experience, regardless of the outcome.

Gambling shouldn't really matter whether you're losing much or less or whether you're winning at all, except maybe your sole aim for gambling is to make profit which is a very wrong way to approach gambling. It's a fun activity that should be done for the sake of fun because that's the o lybway you can ensure that you're gambling safe. If you're gambling for profit, you'll find yourself taking more risks than usual.

Op what you will understand is that most people Dont gamble because of money they will win or lose , they gamble for fun sake because the game makes them happy And nothing much .

I have actually seen a gambler in different scenarios that will gamble  with huge amount of money But At the end he will give out the money To others after winning , he just gambles to have fun .

Looking At your question’where is the fun when you lose money’ . My dear no human being enjoys loss And no one has Ever be happy that he is losing out Resources, But when It comes To gambling most people Dont consider the losses , some are even willing To lose more just To be happy . Every gambler has what motivates him or her And It  is either the winning aspect or the losing aspect .

Yes, it can actually be fun to you when you are not losing much and you are losing lower than your budget. It’s make you understanding gambling games very well and also keep you equipped for more gambling ahead because you are not over gambling and you are not taking much risk on gambling you are always taking precaution, so it will be fun when you see other people crying because they have lost a lot in gambling just because of lack of planning and over gambling

What do you think of the players who play each day and accept that it's therapy to them? To some, it could be a wrong one, but some players use daily gambling as a means of healing themselves and entertainment. I think some naive players think that gamblers who play for entertainment are like those who seek money. However, the personal intentions of each player are different for every player, but what is most important is the aim and goal of the players. But the worst aspect of the game is not holding up to do the right thing. Most gamblers out of love for money, do the wrong things and boycott the rules of gambling responsibly, despite being warned by the casino. Gamblers who wager money each day and neglect another important aspect of their lives that needs finances are not doing the right things. They are only making up a hard time for themselves. Because once the funds get exhausted, they can't withstand the pressure of gambling irresponsibly. By chasing out other means of illicit methods of earning to fund their gambling lifestyles. I prefer gambling in a casual form to going the extra mile just for gambling.

You are right, I think every gambler has fun in his own way and creates his own habits to do so, certainly the casino, gambling, sports betting are always something that fills us, it amuses us and gives us adrenaline, it is something that cannot be denied, however every time we play, what I think we should take care of is the money, without money there is no fun, there is nothing, And sometimes in a casino we can lose control, we give in to our emotions and we can lose our money and that is precisely what we should not do, what we cannot afford, we must always come out winning, it is allowed to lose, but not everything, in a casino we cannot come out victorious all the time, because the casino advantage is something unpredictable, but we must control at least the money we have.

Every human being on earth have their own way of handling things and that's why some gamblers do go crazy with their gambling habits  and others just go with the flow of their gambling session. Their are some gamblers that depends on winning before they can actually term their habits as fun although losing in gambling is never fun but atleast you already have the mindset ready that gambling is both loses and profits with a touch of adrenaline flow attached.
