Many believe that gambling is for young people online as they need thrill and and fun. But I think that even old people can enjoy gambling. There should be any age to retire from gambling at all. One can do this activity and leisure time and thus it does not affect retirement related activities also.

The age I think is the right time to quit gambling is when you are not able to gamble again due to old age when the memory is not functioning the way it supposed to be functioning. At that time, someone may be over 90 years or more than that age, but if someone is able to get to that age.

We've had a recent thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5468937.0) that asked a similar question and you already answered your question. To me, there shouldn't be a specific age for gamblers to retire from gambling when it's one of the few activities they enjoy and look forward to. Instead of age, time might be the better way to answer the question because change can happen at any time and gambling can become less entertaining than it used to be if you suddenly find other hobbies more entertaining than gambling.

For me gambling should not be played till old age because even someone that is having fun while gambling, like even if you lose or you win you still move on, there are still sometimes that one feels very bad after losing a bet possibly a bet that you would have won a huge amount of money so no matter how you try to get it off your mind it will still keep on resurfacing in your memory that sometimes you might be going through emotions, so because you are young and your organs are still functioning well you can be able to endure your emotions. But someone who is old might not be able to hold on to such emotions because they might run into serious depression and possibly health challenges as a result of trying to get the emotions off their memories.

It is important for us to understand that as one gets old, some part of our body that can endure pressure often starts becoming weak as well so continuously pressuring those part of our body might cause physical, psychological and emotional damages to our body.

Gambling knows no age. The basis for somebody to gamble isn't about age. For me, it is about whether you have the extra money to spend on something as unnecessary as gambling. If you are young, but you only have enough money to support yourself or your young family, you have no right to gamble. If you are old but you can only earn enough to support your basic needs and possibly some meds, you have no right to gamble also.

Gambling is for both young and old who have extra money and time to spend on gambling. But of course you can't anymore gamble if you're too old and frail to even rise up in the morning.

Unfortunately, gambling addiction also affects the elderly. Obviously the numbers are much less relevant than among young people, but they are still quite significant.

I was reading once that seniors are one of the main audiences in the physical gambling industry, and every year more and more seniors are getting a "taste" for gambling. A survey of more than 6,500 older people in the Omaha, Nebraska area found that going to casinos was seniors' second favorite activity, second only to bingo.

Fortunately, the tendency of addiction among the elderly is much lower compared to other ages, it is estimated that only 3% to 5% of all elderly gamblers become compulsive.

Of course, gambling does not have a retirement age, you just need to play consciously.

I don't think it matters? It's not a strenuous activity though it can be a roller coaster of emotions so maybe heart attacks or something similar can happen. But if you're clear of that I reckon you're able to play it for as long as you want really. Naturally, it's best if you avoid anything that can push your emotions to an extreme, gambling is one of them so if asked, but there are some people regardless of age who can keep their calm and at the same time, there can also be younger people who can't handle their emotions so I guess it depends on that.

Understanding what you can and can't do should be easily understandable by people of older age (at least, the majority of them I hope) anw so I reckon they can recognize whether they can play or not.

There is no exact or written number as the ideal age to stop gambling. Regarding a person's activities, in my opinion, it is relative, millennials and those who are older can still gamble as long as they are healthy and have money to gamble with. When someone is sick, they will lose their mood for normal activities, such as visiting a casino or gambling online. Health really determines a person's activities, not age.

Gambling for young and old. What is needed when gambling is good self-control and we know that. Without it, young and old people will not be able to give up gambling easily. They will continue gambling maybe, until the money runs out.

I once saw a group of people over 60 years old in one place playing cards. I saw money hidden under the ashtray but pretended not to see it. It could be an activity they do in their spare time. And as long as they can control themselves, that's fine too.

A person can stop gambling anytime he wants and it is not related to age. If he wants to stop while still young, that's good. But if he wants to stop when he is 50, that's fine too. The important thing is that he knows that gambling requires self-control and limits.

This is because in recent years online casinos have really become popular and have gamblers whose ages are still teenagers or young which has led some people to think that online gambling is only popular among young people.
But if we do research thoroughly we will find that all gamblers in online gambling are loved by all groups from young people to adults and old people so the assumption that online gambling is only for young people is an incorrect idea.

Discussing the appropriate age to retire from gambling, there is actually no maximum age limit at which you must immediately retire from gambling because it would be better to retire immediately before you get older.
Gambling is a very wasteful financial activity that makes us willing to lose money whereas when we get older we can no longer make money consistently and really have to manage our finances well.
After all old age is the right time to spend time with family children and grandchildren.

not sure, even at the age of 60 there are still people who gamble at land based casinos or gamble somewhere with friends and for retirement to stop gambling there is no age limit as long as you are able to gamble physically and financially, just do it.

IMO, it will not be possible for someone to gamble if their physical condition has decreased, such as sight and hearing which are important roles when they want to gamble, so if someone does not have a good enough physical condition, maybe they will decide to stop gambling and still dont have it age restriction.

as I said above, I even know someone who still gambles in a hidden place with his friends playing poker even though he is 60+ but he has a very good physique so he is still able to gamble.

Gambling is a hobby and not a profession, therefore I don't think that there is a need to retire except if one finds it not exciting anymore or is unable to gamble due to certain conditions like sickness or old age. Retiring from your job will lead to a lot of loneliness and gambling could be an activity to keep one busy and active. Retirement activities could just include reading, visiting family and friends, and other leisure activities, which means there will be enough time to gamble. I know many old gamblers in my area and I don't think they are thinking of retiring but many of them prefer in-house gambling where they can sit down, chat with friends, and enjoy some music and drinks.

There Is no an age. You should not have an Age/program for that!
You can or cannot bet but this cannot be linked with age of a gambler.
I have spent months even years without betting and then I find some interesting games and competitions and decide to bet again.

I think that there is no age to retire from gambling. You can gamble for as long as you mind is working and you have money. Once you become older, like 80+ your mind does not respond as it used to do previously and at old age, we do not earn any income, so this means that it becomes difficult to gamble at that age. However, some may have passive income, with which they may gamble for lifetime.


With the popularity of online gambling, it is even easier for the old people to continue to gamble in the comfort of their homes. If those people need to go out to the physical casino, maybe they would think to quit it but since gambling is available in their home, on their mobile or computer, so its becomes easy for them to gamble and pass their free time.

I agree with the others, there is not. Doyle Brunson was a poker player who played until almost his death at the age of 90 this year. So the only limit is that your mental faculties are still functioning well. And in the case of casino games that you can still afford it, because you are losing money in the long run unlike Brunson, who continued to make money in the last years of his life.   

I don't know if there will be a limiting age for gamblers. I mean if they can still play in a casino and enjoy the rest of their life then why not? I have seen old people, with oxygen and in the wheel chair still playing slot games with their love ones or paid nurses and assistants to help them push the button or put the money on the machine itself.

So there's no age limit, and most likely they have build so much money when they are still in their primes and most likely wanted to spend some of it while they are still alive and enjoy and be entertained.

There is no rules or law on ages to retire from gambling, it's a matter of what you like to do, feel free to retire anytime you want, or you can even keep gambling till your last minute, it's your life and your choice, I don't see any reason why anyone would ask this question, because there is nothing to gain from asking.

Where I was originally from old men and women still plays some ludo games and even those cards game, the only difference is they are not placing bets on the games, I think that old age is where no man should be working but having fun enjoying their last days, why bet money on anything at old age when tomorrow isn't guaranteed compare to a mid age person.

The only age limit for gamblers are preventing kids from using their platforms because it's part of the rules and regulation of a casino from the regulators, let's stop using gambling like it's some kind of profession, it's not, you are to relax with gambling and enjoy your time instead of putting your ass on some hot sit because you place bet using your hard earned money.

I don’t believe that one need to have a specific retirement age from gambling, it’s not a job that you get to retire from after you have been using it for a long time.

You can be old and still gambling once in a while. As one gets old not many things will be fun to them again, that that they were thrilled to take part in becomes uninteresting to them and that’s what will also happen they might not even want to gamble again except with friends and if they find their self in an online casino they won’t spend much time like they used to do when they were younger.

But for me, I don’t plan on continuing my gambling activities once I get to a certain age there are so many things I want to stop at that age and gambling is included.

The sad truth is... a lot of old people are still gambling out of desperation. A lot of these Pensioners did not save up enough money to have a decent pension fund, so they try to win something huge to supplement their pension fund.

This obviously never happens for the majority of them and they lose a lot of money doing this. The younger people can still work and make more money when they lose a huge amount over time, so they have a way to recover when they failed.

It is so sad to see this, but there are exceptions.. where some of them are just doing this for entertainment.  ;)

I think a reasonable old man should give up gambling. Whether we like it or not, gambling has the primary aim to double your finance but whether this actually happens or not depends on an individual, if they are getting the profit but yes majority are not. So what would an old man be gambling for when he is suppose to be taken care of by his pension savings and investment plus what support the children give to him.

It is better to plan old age during young age so that you don't continue gambling at old age and increase your blood pressure from loses which is not good for the health. Old age is not suppose to be for gambling, that luck you are expecting to happen suppose to have happened during the youthful gambling age.

I don't think there is an age limit for gambling. As long as we have money and the will to gamble then it can be done. I have several friends who decided to stop gambling, but not because of age but because of increasing household needs. He has 2 children who are at school and 1 son who is studying to pursue a bachelor's degree. He decided to stop gambling because he was afraid that the money that was supposed to pay his children's school fees would be used for gambling. So he decided to stop, although he sometimes gambled, but rarely and only played with small money

As parents, they should avoid various gambling habits that they do because of course when they are old, it will no longer be easy for them to earn a steady income and if they still have a gambling habit, it will certainly be very difficult for them to be able to meet their needs. their daily lives and also they have responsibilities towards their families.

For those who are old and still have the habit of gambling, it is certainly not good for their health because if they experience emotions it will certainly be problematic for their health and this is not what everyone wants.

I don't think there is a definite answer to this question as regarding your thread topic but I believe that there's no age limit for having fun as long as you're healthy. Personally, if I should give a general answer, I would say that a person's individual circumstances are more important than their age when it comes to deciding whether or not to retire from gambling. At old age, there's a lot of health challenges and one's health is an important factor to consider while gambling. Gambling can be stressful and lead to anxiety and health problems if it becomes too much of a focus in a person's life. Aside this health challenge, one can gamble until you wish to stop.


Reasonable old man? No, I disagree with you on this. Perhaps you are talking from the aspect of those who are gambling to earn a living. Earning profits is actually one of the aim of gambling but that should not be the priority because of the consequences that follows it. If the old man is not in financial crisis and derive fun in gambling, then I don't see anything wrong in doing that no matter the age.

People are different, some people earn more even as they are old. If not earning money again, they should stop gambling is the best. But their are easy ways old men that work for their future still earn money. Some also invested on their children in a way their children will also appreciate which can lead to weekly income from children, but people should not depend on that.

Gambling is not good for anyone's health if they are using huge amount of money, but for someone that knows about this and only using very little amount, there is nothing bad about it. But for someone that can not control their gambling addiction, or someone that is not able to use small amount of money for gambling, it is not about age, the person should stop gambling and look for fun in areas that are not related to gambling.

I don't think that it's said for young people. It's more of people that have ways of living and source of income but we can agree that it is for every walks of life. And for the most active are the young ones because they're mostly the risk takers and they won't just stop from there when they're already active in gambling. And no one is forced to retire because anyone can stop and continue whenever they want, there is no required age when you want to gamble, as long as you want to gamble, that's it. But if you want to stop then that so be it.

But as someone starts to realize that it's just good to have fun during his retirement, it becomes risker at that point because who knows if a retired guy will have the urge to spend his retirement fund on gambling without knowing that he can be unstoppable with that despite of losing that's visible to his eyes. That is the part when a retired person might be triggered more when he's losing that much. He'll have that encouragement that he has his retirement money and he can continue whether people like it or not.

No prior age set regarding on what age should a gambler retire from gambling since each of us have different approach regarding on this discussion since some can easily quit because they think they are done already since they are financially drained due to big losses they encounter from gambling. And some still gamble even if they are old since they think its still good for them since it challenge their mind and get the fun that they want especially when they are at home without doing anything. Gambling can really be stressful if done in wrong manner since if a person is doing crazy decisions while betting for sure they would think about those hardships and how to recover their lose then even decide to chase. But if they are there just for fun since start of their sessions provably with this attitude they can be happy whatever result they can get after they end their games.

I am just thinking about this right now, I have never for once think about when I will quit, I think it's better not to think about it, if gambling is still fun for you there is no reason to quit, even if you are old as a responsible gambler you are in good hands, if gambling isn't fun for you anymore or you are gambling to make money only I think at a old age you should stop, you don't want take risks that can affect you or make life miserable for you.

A responsible gambler still needs to be careful as they age, because old age has it's impact on the brain too, I think it's better to stop gambling when you are older, within the range of 60 and above, you could end up making a bad decision and lost everything, who knows? I might stop gambling in the future but for now I don't see any reason to give up on gambling.

As long as you enjoy the game, and your brain and your memory are functioning well I don't think you can think of retirement, but once you can not recall the numbers you're betting it is time to call it quit, you can also take a vacation when you don't have money to sustain your gambling.

If you're gambling for enjoyment I don't think you will think of retirement you just don't retire for something that you enjoy, I have seen old people still frequenting casinos, and it's one of the activities they include in their retirement times.
You can also retire anytime you want if you think that you're spending too much of your money from gambling and you have a goal in life and you think gambling will hinder that, the right age to retire is when you decide to retire.

That's right, I also never thought about this problem, in my opinion there is really no time limit on when you should gamble and when you should stop, of course everything will return to each individual along with how they view gambling. Basically there are those who easily stop because they realize that this activity is useless and only makes a lot of problems arise in their finances and there are also those who still gamble until now because they are addicted and have difficulty getting out of the zone, honestly for the addicted themselves I don't know when they will stop but more likely I think they will stop when they have exhausted everything they have and are also driven by some new problems as a result of gambling on their lives.

I really can't tell at what age you should stop because as I said above it depends on yourself how long you want to contribute to the activity, but in my opinion if indeed the activity only causes a lot of problems it is better from now on you intend to stop, especially those who are already addicted, because as we know quitting gambling is very difficult friend, and it is impossible to do suddenly, so it is better for you from now on to reduce these activities so that in the future slowly the action will reduce your interest in gambling and finally you can stop. Yes, gambling is very challenging, not least because there is a chance of winning and the risk of losing, but obviously the risk there is far greater than the chance of winning, and if you gamble just for fun, in my opinion it doesn't matter because the sensation that is caused is quite pleasant and yes as long as you remain firm on your self-control, do not end up addicted because it is very dangerous and I'm not sure you can survive in such conditions which of course will be a lot of pressure you feel.

I don't think there's such a thing. In fact, the old ones may even enjoy gambling more since they have nothing left to do in their life but take a rest, so gambling could give them some good entertainment in their life.
It's the young ones who must stay away from gambling activities because they are the hot-blooded ones who may not control themselves, unlike the veterans who know the importance of money.
And it's not like it's a job to have a retirement time, we could play anytime we want and stop at the point that we think gambling is not fun for us anymore. Since old people cannot join any sport anymore, sports betting might be the one thing that could entertain them to add flavor while watching a game that they love.

Retiring from gambling is something which does not depend on one's age, in my opinion, but rather in the personal choices one has made around the gambling habit itself.
Some can be 23 and decide to retire from gambling, one can be 89 years old and also decide to retire from gambling, the reasons are countless and we should not judge them, since each one of us would have different valid reasons to come to the conclusion it is time to retire.

As long as one is over 18-21, manages money responsibly and obviously has the right set of mind to take responsibly choices one can gamble as long as one likes.
Though, I have ended noticed people in their golden years seem to prefer to gamble in brick-and-mortar casinos, instead of just creating an account online and doing it from their home.
To each their own.

In my opinion, age is not a guarantee that someone will retire from gambling, nowadays we see a lot of young and old people who like to gamble, who knows what they are looking for there?? For young people, of course they gamble to find entertainment, while for older people, apart from being entertainment, they may also be addicted and use gambling to make extra money. And in my opinion, someone will retire from gambling because they have experienced defeat and lost so much money that they have nothing left, they can't even buy money for food and they will think it is time for them to stop or retire from gambling. , if he continues to force himself to gamble then his life problems will increase.

Is there such thing? As long as it's done responsibly and within one's means, age shouldn't necessarily be a barrier to enjoying such activities. If it's causing issues like financially or relationships, it might be time to take a step back, no matter how old you are.

      -   Where did you read the article that gambling is only for young people? I know when no adult or minor enters an online casino or physical casino it is not really allowed here. You also did not specify what age group of young people you are referring to.
 
Also, gambling does not choose any age; gambling is because once you bet on any games they have, they have a profit on you as a gambler. That's how simple the trend is in the world of gambling. Just don't forget that we shouldn't let ourselves become addicted to gambling or have an addiction to it that will affect our lives and ourselves negatively.

There's no such thing about age on quitting or retiring from gambling yet im not really not that doing any careers or somewhat similar to this but rather it would really be just that entirely be random
if i do really seek up for some leisure times then this is the time i would really be that tending to play in regardless on what age it would be. I admit that i do make some gambling sessions but only just that good with small amounts or something that it is extra from my own salary or something that it isnt really that being used or completely free. Retiring kind of word on which it would really be fitting out into those people who do make gambling as their gambling routine or just simply they do make out a career of it and this would really be able to  suit out that kind of word.

For me., i can stop anytime since im not really that addicted and really that could easily quit up if i wanted to and never ever make myself that going impulsive anytime i do deal up with it.
As long you are really that spending the amount which you can afford to lose then i dont really see any issues.

I see people retiring from gambling at a very young age just fresh from college or a young entrepreneurs this is to pursue their other dreams and goals and find gambling a hindrance to the attainment of their dream goal and I've seen old people getting into gambling at their retirement time just to enjoy gambling something that they have not done when they are young because they are too busy with their job and their business.

So there is really no exact age to retire some young people retire and old people just beginning to gamble, there are two ways or retire in gambling, when you are addicted and you get cured, and when you lose a lot of money you cannot gamble anymore because you cannot sustain and decide to retire.

There is no mandatory age to retire and there is no age to start gambling, it's your money, it's your time, and it's your desire, you decide it for yourself.

While there is a specific time to engage in gambling but there is no specific time to quit gambling. A man can start gambling from the time he turns 18 but there is no age or limit on when he can stop. In my opinion a man is fit for gambling as long as he can manage responsible gambling.In many places, when a person retires after his working life, many people choose gambling as a Leisure time. That time is very happy for them. But if someone is greedy for money and gambling with more risk at that time, it can definitely create fatal problems for them. If the age is above 60 then gambling should be thought of only as a platform of enjoyment rather than greed for money otherwise gambling may have harmful effects for those elderly people.

Age doesn’t matter as long as user still enjoy playing the games and have enough money to carry on without affecting his daily needs. Gambling is design as source of entertainment which old people needs a lot since most of them is already alone on their house due to their children has their own family.

Old people has nothing to do anymore to enjoy that’s why many old people gamble despite of their age. It’s not about the money but rather how they can be entertained by playing games instead of staying home alone. So no age limit for me as long as they can still enjoy playing.

As we age, so does new games are been invented and integrated into gambling if they see that people love it. You don't expect people that were gambling in the 80s, 90s and early 2000s to understand some of the gambling games on casino, they most often than not played what they understand and with time, they don't even have that time they use to like when they were even younger and energetic. However, the age you chose to retire is subjective, some people even quit gambling once they marry if their spouse don't like it, some quit when they give birth to their first child so that the child will not take after them as some of them are bad gamllbler.

If you see gambling as fun and your family don't see anything in it, then I think there is nothing should stop you if you find it fun at any age you are but if you are the type that see gambling as a way to hulse, quit while you are younger, you don't want to be nuisance to your grandchildren. I know of people even when they have older kids, they still go to gambling shop to bet where there children also go to bet. That's very concerning when an elder don't know when to stop.

You don't use age to determine whether or not you should retire. You can be as old as Joe Biden and still gambling responsibly. If you still enjoy it and have no control problem, you can still play. Meanwhile, you MUST retire even if you are a teenager if you don't have control or get into problems.

There is no real age to quit or going in pension when you gamble.Back in the days in 2000-2005 when I used to work in the casino the majority of the people gambling were over 50 there and in those times the online gambling had just started to appear while local casinos were extremely popular.

Those people kept gambling every day those over 50 years old in age and I believe in the saying that the vice goes out when we die meaning it is very difficult to quit,that is why I think that there is no real age for gamblers,you can be 99 years old and if you have power to hit the spin button you will do it.

Depending on the gambler's wishes, when they will retire, usually everyone has different reasons, some stop because they want to get rid of their addiction and there are also those who stop completely because they want to focus on their family, every gambler has his own time when he will stop retiring from gambling, but in general Personally, I will stop and retire from gambling around the age of 40 because I think that is the right age to be with my family.

But maybe it's different from other people, sometimes there are those who still gamble until they are old people so we can't guess and determine when we should retire from gambling as long as gambling is still limited and limits the time. Actually there is no problem gambling at any time as long as we can still control it, but If you have become a heavy addict playing all the time, there should be time to stop and retire from gambling.  ;)

I agree with your opinion and so are the others about the age to retire because there's really no right or mandatory or preferable age to retire, you retire when you want to retire because of various reasons whether financial, health job or business-related and you can always come back once you retire because in gambling there's no such thing as permanently retiring.
I have a neighbor who is bedridden but he still bets on a lottery by asking his grandson to bet for him his favorite numbers, still hoping to win before he goes.

In the world of leisure and fun, age is just a number. Telling someone based on their age what things they can or cannot do is nothing but unfair discrimination. Doesnt it seem silly to say that thrills and fun are only for kids? The idea that limiting gambling to people of a certain age is, in effect, not a problem. A lot of ageist ideas are used to support it, which makes it unstable.

Lets look into this more deeply now. No matter how old or young you are, gaming can be fun and can suit your level of risk tolerance. When you retire, you dont have to stop doing everything, do you? No matter what age, leisure is relaxation. Whats the point in being different in gambling? There really shouldnt be an age limit. Who says you should stop looking for thrills, adventures, or just a good time at a certain age?

There is no age limit for someone to stop gambling, even if they are still young and able to control their gambling addiction, so asking themselves to retire early is the right decision. Basically, gambling is not mandatory for young people. Gambling actually becomes a double-edged sword when you are unable to control it at a young age. Don't get me wrong I really don't know how far anyone plans to retire from gambling as it is not a permanent career nor is it a consistent source of income. The word retirement is more attached to the field of work, so the most appropriate word for gambling is stop, not retire.

The story is different if people are directly involved as workers in casino, game server guards and gambling service operators, then this could be very suitable for the term retirement.

I don't think gambling is taking that much physical effort so I suppose anything below 65 is pretty acceptable age for gambling. After 65, age hits health so hard. Especially it may mess your decision making big. I believe you also need good memory capacity for gambling and after 50 memory starts to fade away... I think 70 is close to perfect age to retire from anything, gambling and all kinds of other things, labor etc.

There's no exact date to retire from gambling, you can gamble until you die, it's a choice.

But I think it depends on each person, if you're someone who's really emotional and ever once suffering from heart attack, it's better to stop gambling or bet with very very low amount. Heart attack mostly happen start from 40 years old (https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/heart-attack-age-range#age-as-a-risk-factor), so beware when you're already that old during gamble.

The age you think that you no longer need to gamble anymore and think about using your money for other achievements in life, helping others or feeding yourself and the family members, that time you make such realization by yourself then you can make a decision to stop gambling, this could be at any age, but when you discover that despite you're been old enough, you still find gambling interesting to do and you're not having financial challenge or any unaccomplished vision, you're good to continue gambling because by then, it's what gives you joy at pleasure.

Retirement is something that almost everyone will give a thought about, but in terms of gambling, I really think that the best time for someone to quit gambling is when he/she has no money to stake again, it's common sense and not about age, even if someone is at the age of @300 and if the person is still a bit strong or bit stronger he/she can still gamble online, it is very hard for a gambler to quit gambling even if the gambler is very old (if he/she still has the money he/she can still gamble).

It's one thing to quit gambling probably because of the fact that the concerned person now gambles frequently and becoming a gambling addict abd also a totally different thing to retire from gambling after so many years of involvement in it especially when one is aged.
What the question is talking about is the best age range for any gambler to absolutely retire from gambling. And my honest opinion is that after the age of 60 years, I don't think it's right for anyone to continue in gambling since it requires a lot of mental strength to gamble on other not to stress his aged brain through gambling.

The world "retire" should only be used when it is a profession. Gambling is not a profession expect for those who take it as their main job. These are the people that should retire. It you do gambling well, you would have fun and would never for once have any regrets that you gambled while you were hale and hearty.

Just to add that gambling should not go alone. Engage in gambling with other fun and simple activities and you would never regret a day in your life.

It's very subjective, and I don't think that there are retirement numbers from gambling to begin with. There are late bloomers too, who find gambling at the ripe age, and then there are gamblers who started young and still continue to gamble until they can't no longer play.

And as we know it, gambling has been part of human history, as old as mankind. So it's very hard to just stop or quit or retire from it. So it really affect all of the society, regardless of what age bracket. Initially it appears to be harmless for us in the beginning, but as we continue throughout our lifetime, it's very difficult to withdraw from it.

First we must understand that it's not about age as people gamble for different reasons like:

• people gamble for fun
• people gamble to make money(profit)
• others gamble for the purpose of socializing
• others gamble to try get distracted from something, etc

But if we try to put an age when people need to retire from gambling, it might be considered as some kind of discrimination but perfect time to stop is when you have other responsibilities that need your time and can't make time to gamble anymore then this should tell you that you are done... otherwise age shouldn't be something to tell you that you are done!

I don't think there's any age to retire when it comes to gambling. As you have said, for young people, gambling is an activity to experience the thrill and fun. And yes, the same experience was also for the old person. Gambling is considered one of the social activities where old people spend their leisure time in casinos. Old people also experience an eagerness to gamble, and addiction which results in a risk of facing a financial problem which is the same as every young gamblers..

Yes, even older people can enjoy gambling, but they should keep in mind their age and their health because gambling can bring surprises to them. And sometimes, if a person is not prepared for the shock, they can develop heart disease, which can result in death. But to retire from gambling, everyone can decide for themselves, and there is no need to say at what age they will retire. If they feel they have enough to retire from gambling, they can do so at any time. Or they are tired of gambling all their life, they can decide to retire immediately. It all depends on how they feel because sometimes, if they decide they will retire at the age of 60 but in reality they still enjoy gambling, they will not retire.

Gambling can be for anyone at the right age to gamble with enough funds to spend. It isn't enclosed to a certain age bracket or range, as long they are of legal age to bet and play, although typically, there are age ranges that mostly play a specific type of game. I guess this is because of the influence or the generation became used to certain games, and have fun playing various kinds that suit their liking as well.

If you are an adult that is still half the retirement age or near it, it's your choice whether to continue or to stop gambling. Retirement from gambling is a heavy thing especially to the regulars, so it will really have to be though of thoroughly. If you no longer have the capacity, financially speaking, to gamble, then quit already before it becomes a burden to you. But if you do have a budget allocation without destroying your priorities, then you can play as much even if you're past your prime. For me, it really depends on your capability to gamble, mentally, emotionally, and financially speaking. 

Gambling is not an activity that will be too hard even for old age since its just like watching television but this time they are thinking and enjoying. I believe the only repercussion of gambling that can give to old people is the potential heart attack and other illness once they experience huge loss or anything that will surprise them.

But in general. Gambling is safe even for old age considering that they will just play for fun and doesn’t involved on high risk stake game which often do by young gambler.

So hard to tell on the timeline since we might not really follow that. To many factors would provably come and that can affect our decision either to continue or stop our activities on gambling. But for now maybe we should not think about it since it doesn't really give us any boost since each of us have different opinion regarding on when to retire discussion. I just continue to enjoy gambling for now since who knows maybe soon we can say that its enough for us to participate in such activity since we think its enough for us and find better career to enhance ourselves then leave those other activity that disturbs us to grow on what new career we are accepting.

Some can quit instantly but some can't and still want to play for long term. But for sure when they came up to the point that they became more mature for sure they still leave this activity and gaining more money will be their main priority due to responsibilities that they need to take care.

For me, gambling means there is no such thing as retirement, as long as you have the money and opportunity as well as age, as long as they are able to operate a laptop or Android, there are no obstacles for those who want to continue gambling.

Stopping gambling doesn't lie in retirement, gambling is not a real job that has to be done, those who come to the world of gambling are like people going to the night market, if they have the opportunity and see the chance of luck, Of course they will do it and risk their money, the gambling arena can be done because there is desire, opportunity and capital, regardless of whether they are young or old.

I don't think there's any specific age to retire or rather stop gambling. One can decide to stop gambling at anytime due to some personal reason. And I would say it all depends on how gambling has affected them positively or negatively. Since gambling is fun I don't see why an old nigga who probably still has the ability to move on his own won't be able to gamble. They would actually need such activities to exercise their body and keep the brain active. If gambling has affected you negatively it's would be a proper thing for you to stop and find something else to do with your time.

The thing called gambling does not know age, old or young, the important thing is that the person has enough money so he can gamble.
However, the question that arises is when is the right age to stop gambling? So my answer is that there is no age limit for someone to stop gambling and there is no age that can really be considered appropriate for someone to decide to stop gambling, however if this gambling activity is considered detrimental and does not provide any benefits and it is also difficult to controlled, then whether in old age or young, if conditions are like that, it would be better if we decided as soon as possible to immediately stop the gambling activities that we have been doing. Before something worse happens to us.

Okay but does it mean if someone doesn't gamble then he won't have fun watching probably a sports game? If an old man doesn't gamble will he note enjoy the entertainment from the game he is seeing or engaging in? No I think the real entertainment is when you are relaxed and not pressured whatsoever. Gambling is generally believed to be played because you want to add to your purse not just a total entertainment because if it is only for entertainment we have different things to enjoy in a game that is not to gamble it.

People over the age of 60 are prone to having heart problems, so in my opinion, people over the age of 60 who know they have health problems should not play any game of chance, they may have another type of entertainment such as watching films, series, talking to relatives, friends and they can also read newspapers and also watch football games of their favorite team, but without putting money to bet. I say this because even when people talk about how they don't express feelings when they bet money on a game, when they lose money they still feel like they lost, but as they are young they can overcome this loss easily.

but when we are talking about the case of old people, they no longer have the health to be anxious and worried all the time and still be fine, when an old person puts money into gambling, they will be worried until it is time to see the results. of the games and when the results are bad and he loses money, then the old person will feel angry, dissatisfied and may die at the same time. Even when there is a very important football game in my country and that same football game is shown on my country's TV, there is always a warning so that old people with heart problems don't watch it. This is to prevent them from getting sick

A person can anytime and anywhere decide to immediately stop gambling activities and this is regardless of whether they are old or young. If in a position where gambling is uncontrollable and can only be detrimental both in time and financially, then immediately stop gambling before your time and money run out because of irresponsible gambling, immediately stop gambling and look for something else. which is more useful. And if you are currently experiencing economic problems, it would be better if you decided to stop gambling and remain focused on the efforts you are making so that your personal economy can return to stability as soon as possible. Because gambling that is done irresponsibly and cannot be controlled can destroy the plans and efforts that we are making. And don't ever think that gambling can change our lives financially, because this is just nonsense.

There is absolutely no age limit in gambling, even an very old man who can no longer walk can still enjoy gambling so long as he can effectively operate a smart phone, understand to sign up on an online casino, deposit and withdraw money.
There is no age limit to gambling, and as such, there is no specific or accurate age to retire from gambling.

I myself hope to play gambling till I grow old and die, but I still believe that there is a chance I might quit (not necessarily quit though) gambling when I become very busy with lots of activities like travels, going for business meetings and so on, that I no longer have the time or chance to enjoy gambling, but when I do retire, i still will gamble if I still find it as interesting as it currently is.

Gambling is a fun activity and apart from the young people who are under aged, every other person is permitted to involve themselves in the fun activity of gambling. If health and financial status continue to permit it there is no reason or age to stop gambling. Any gambler can gamble for as long as they want. People only stop gambling when they feel like they should, but if you have no problem with gambling and gambling has no problem with you and you decide to want to continue gambling for as long as you can until you run into old age, it's your choice and there's nothing wrong with it.

Well for me there is no specific or age limit to gambling, it comes from you that even the elderly enjoy gambling because it seems to be the only way to get rid of their boredom. Yes, there is still another way to get rid of boredom, but if you are a gambler and you can still gamble even when you are old, you will still do it.

I see from my grandfathers and uncles that they always gambled even when they were in their 60-70s. They are the ones who are playing and they are fighting each other, I can see that they are enjoying it a lot, it's like they're bonding, it's like they're just kids, it's fun to watch.

Of course gambling is very fun but that doesn't mean you have to forget all your limits and controls because behind the fun in gambling there is a huge risk that can happen to you unexpectedly at any time. Yes, although there is no prohibition for each individual to engage in gambling but still we must be really careful friends, yes I understand it is very fun but also very risky. I hope that if you really want to get involved in this activity then you have to know about everything that is there including losing, and also yes you should be able to budget money that will not be a problem if you end up losing, if you can apply it then I say you are one of the responsible gamblers by accepting all the risks that occur.

I agree with that, it is true, there is no age limit for you to gamble, even if you are old enough but if this is one of the fun things then do it as long as you have a high level of awareness and strong control so as not to be easily influenced by every temptation that is there. Gambling really won't be a big problem when you can manage and know the rules that must be done there, such as limiting the budget and time, other than that just come for entertainment, I think it's still safe.

Actually the weak gambler only retired at their old ages,because they don’t have any good funds for their survival of the game.The old age people doesn’t have money most of the time because of not saving their funds at their young ages.Saving the money at the younger age was the important for the young gamblers which help to make the more games at the old ages.I had come across many gamblers who’s age are more than 60 and all of them was holding the huge assets and big bank balances.The gambler with less knowledge will play the game at the young age and doesn’t hold any money for the gambling at their old ages.

No age in particular. Best time to retire is when you are being eaten by gambling itself; not being able to function on a daily basis because of your urge to gamble, often financially struggling due to losses and if it causes you bigtime stress. With this, you should retire following no number concerning your existence in this world. The best time is when you know to yourself that you are creating a huge problem from this activity.Elders just have more time than us to gamble which makes them an example often whenever it is regarding gambling retirement age. Indeed there are many people who still gambles at age 50 and up but same thing goes with below 30 years of age.

First of all, I wanna say that gambling should be for entertainment purpose not for addiction. Now I wanna say that every person works for his livelihood for a certain age according to his body capacity and after that age, the person took retirement from his job or work. Then I would say that there is a basic condition of gambling and that is that you gamble with as much funds as you can afford to lose.
So now I can say that when you reach an age when you have to retire from your job or your income source is not the same as before I think you should take retirement from gambling also. Because that time you may not afford the funds to gamble. I don't think it is wise to risk your life by gambling in old age. Hopefully you understand when you have to retire from doing gambling, the time is when you can no longer afford the fund for gamble.

You can retire whenever you want. There is no minimum or maximum age required to retire from gambling. If you feel like it, you can retire today. Also, one can be a gambler his whole life. If you are fit, if you have the money, and if you have the desire to gamble, then gamble. Who would stop you? Some may say old age is the best time for a gambler to retire. I say no. Gambling requires not only luck but also experience. The only way to reach that is to keep gambling until you age. Lastly, I would say, It's up to you, man! Do what you want with your life. Buy a car, buy a bike, buy a house, get married, have children, or be single, be agamble, or maybe not. Anything. 

Excuse me but I didn't know that gambling is a full-time job where you gamble for 35 to 40 years and then you retire with your full benefits and pension waiting for you and for 401k in savings. If we have retirees in gambling, then we should also have people who receive pension but this is not. In fact the word retire sounds very weird.

There is an age to start gambling but there is no age to "retire" or "stop" gambling. If you actually gamble for fun then you should enjoy it doing it just like you enjoy taking a cup of coffee every morning.

Is the purpose of saving at a young age just to be able to gamble in old age? I don't think this is something important for us to fight for, if you don't have money then don't gamble... it's really a hassle and if we have enough savings then it would be better if we used the money for more useful things such as investing or saving funds. These are for children's educational needs or for other urgent needs. and is our life only about gambling? I don't think so, because there are still many things we can do in old age, which are more useful, such as expressing creativity in the form of art.

Gambling is not important, so it requires us to be able to prepare special funds so that we can always gamble. Gamble only when we have more money after fulfilling a need.

Why should you retire from any hobby that you find fun? Gambling is fine for adults of all ages and should not have any sort of limit. The only possible problem I could foresee is losing your memory or rational decision making abilities that can happen to some people in the form of dementia. However by that point you would probably find it hard to even login to a gambling site or app, so the problem may solve itself in that sense. As long as you have a strong grasp of your budget and the self control to keep your gambling at a low level, so it doesn't effect you financially and is just considered a form of entertainment, then you should continue to do it for as long as you like.

For me, I think the age to retire from gambling should be the age when the brain stops wanting fun and the thrill of dopamine.
I think it's at the age when the sights go dull, and joint movement becomes a painful chore.

It could be for some, at the age where one gets married, and start having kids. Or maybe at an age where one moves into a new environment.

I don't think gambling has any required age to quit even after retirement. It could be in different forms, but what matters to some is the thrill of it.

The right age to retire from gambling is when you have achieved peace, without being influenced by worldly things. which means, in this case we are old and can no longer remember much, especially regarding gambling. or, you have gained enlightenment that no longer involves worldly pleasures. Unfortunately, the second point is very difficult to realize. well, in your opinion, at what age should you retire,.. if you have the answer, just keep it to yourself.

Well, referring to what you said, there is nothing wrong with that. I agree, young people need sensation and fun.  however, fun is not just for the young. even, people in old age. The difference is, young people who engage in gambling sessions tend to be careless, reckless, and have emotional outbursts. and I, have been in that position. different from people who have reached adulthood. Apart from having fun in gambling, there are certain points that people of mature age have.

for example, when gambling, think about other things first. Let's take an example, sports betting. people of mature age. Usually, we always prioritize researching the teams that will be competing first. in fact, it can happen repeatedly. for young people, they are more likely to follow their feelings according to their wishes. especially, if you play slot games. as long as there is still money in their pockets, they can gamble until there is nothing left. However, not everything has to be specific. The point is, I have no concept of retirement in gambling. I just enjoy the flow, provided everything is under control.

Age does not prevent someone from gambling, but being aware of age may be a good idea if gambling has a major impact on your health and finances. Of course you can stop gambling whenever you want, in fact gambling doesn't have to make you addicted until you are old.

If you don't want to be addicted to gambling until your old age, then don't gamble for money. Think of gambling as a challenging game that can also make you have fun, even if you have to pay dearly for your losses. But of course, this is easier said than done, but you must have a way to stop gambling or reduce the intensity when you experience bad effects.

Since gambling is not a job, there shouldn't be any discussion about retirement. You don't retire from watching TV, or reading books, or sunbathing. The only thing close to this would be stopping to partake in sport activities, but in that case, can we really talk about retiring. Imagine asking your grandpa if he retired from riding a bicycle? I know people who were in their 70s running, working out, doing all the things they used to do when they were young, but at slower pace.

I'm sure that as long as I can think straight I'll be doing all the things I do now, which includes using bitcoin and gambling.

Gambling is an expensive hobby and fun method that has no limits other than the age limit specified by law and can be preferred by older people. Therefore, there is no age limit to stop gambling and older people can also gamble. When we look at the player base especially in physical casinos, the fact that there are more older than young individuals shows that many older people don't move away from gambling due to their age.

Although there is no maximum age limit for gambling, I think it should only be played in cases where the person doesn't feel bad in case of loss, doesn't lose himself/herself in gambling addiction and doesn't harm himself/herself by getting too excited. Since gambling causes a person to get excited or feel bad, only those who are not suitable for it should stay away from gambling when they get older.

I do not think there should be a limit for gambling, I think it retiring in gambling depends on the personal preference and financial capability.  Even if the person is not old if he is not capable to spend extra money for gambling, he must retire playing on gambling platform in order for him to support his and his family's need without any problem.

There are older people who is more than capable of spending money for gambling, I do not think we should limit them to play in gambling platform because of their age. As long as the person is having fun and is capable of spending money for gambling, they should continue to gamble regardless of age.

I also feel that the reason that old people would gamble is for additional money basically. Those who are old and receiving enough money from children and pension will not indulge in gambling because they really may not have need for money as such that what they have can't take care of. Basically, I have not seen an old age man gambling and moreover those few that I come across with are not rich but struggling old men.

Yes, I agree elder person who gambles are the one's that genuinely do that for fun and entertainment unlike young ages who gamble hunger for money and eventually didn't do well. Older age tend to gamble the money they only have like from pension and such, its okay for them whether they lose or win, same as you I have grandpa in the past that does gambling for his own satisfaction, that's why I learned about gambling games from my grandpa as he teach me bow to play more like a grandpa and grandson bonding, even without money at stake we play just for fun. So I think gambling is for every age as long as they want, gambling doesn't always have a money at stake, you cab enjoy it solely because of the bond and memory you will create while playing, i think that the beatiful side of gambling.

Gambling only limits underage gamblers, but they do not place restrictions on seniors. This means that even if you are 60 or 80 years old, you can still gamble, but I'm sure not many of them have the desire to gamble at that age. Even if there were, I think they would just go to land-based casinos instead of online casinos, perhaps for therapy for their blurry eyes or something else instead of gambling in earnest.

But there are other gamblers under the age of 40 who are unable to gamble because of the severe illness they have, even though they still want to gamble. There are such gambling addicts, who despite undergoing therapy for his illness.

But of course, it's just common sense. When you know that you're old, that's a sign that you should stop gambling instead; there's nothing wrong with it. It's better that you enjoy the rest of our days in this world with other things. Rather than spending money on casino gambling. That makes more sense than inside the casino.

You're right, well, life begins at 40 as they say. But I think there's no age limit or rules about on what age should a gambler retired. Many gamblers specifically those Elite gamblers are still playing at the age of 60-80 yrs old, those are the one who spent time in gambling and treat it as their leisure. I think this topic should not be a big deal,  As long as you're capable to play or as long as you have your money, know your limitations and you have a self discipline then you're still allowed to play. Only minors are not allowed to gamble.

For the problem of quitting yes that's right, some can stop instantly and some are very difficult to stop the activity. It depends on their awareness of gambling itself whether this activity gives them a useful good impact or even the opposite. But as we know that there is no good impact from the name of gambling, it will be good enough if you come with just looking for fun and not thinking about other things such as maybe making money in gambling. And besides that as usual probably most of the gamblers already know about the worst impact, I think I don't need to mention it because this is a common impact that many gamblers may have felt especially those who are addicted.

Yes I quite agree, the maturity factor will indeed be quite useful to make yourself realize that gambling is really useless and will only cause a lot of problems, none other than when you are an adult then you will be able to distinguish what is bad and what is good. And yes not only that, because realization can happen at any time regardless of whether you are an adult or not, of course, several other factors can also influence and can be a reason.

There is no doubt that elderly people can experience heart attacks or other health problems because, in gambling, they will encounter many surprises that may affect their health. Maybe elderly people will not go to casinos but will visit their friends' houses and tell stories about their daily lives and reminisce, and then take the time to gamble like in the past. Perhaps there are lighter rules because they won't gamble too hard and want to enjoy time while reminiscing about the past. That would be better. They would not experience health problems because they gamble to fill their free time. But if elderly people go to a casino, they probably won't be able to stand the sound of people gambling on the many gambling games.

Of course they can have fun in other aspects of sports games or in any other things. I think you misunderstood my comment earlier. What led to my first comment before was your reply that I quote above again. You said "a reasonable old man should give up on gambling". That statement sounds as if it is bad for an old man to gamble. Going by that statement, a gambling old man is considered as unreasonable person. So, what I mean with my respond is that it's not a bad idea to continue gambling even at old age as long as it is not affecting you and derive joy in doing it. And yes, we can not deny the fact that we gamble to increase our purse but that should not be top priority else we may not find peace gambling especially when the odds are against us.

Yes, I will agree with you that old men should make the most of their old age. They've worked hard for decades and they deserve to enjoy their golden years to the fullest.

There should not be any retirement age, the way we don't have a retirement age from driving.

People are different and this is another example of a situation that should be analyzed case by case.
You can feel great gambling in your 70s, but your grandpa might not. He might have Alzheimer's, or dementia.
It's the same with any other activity. Some people retire early from their work because of health problems.

We should gamble for as long as we feel like we're on top of our game. You can be 30 years old and have a mental breakdown due to gambling that forces you to stop.

It's not about age, I can't say for sure that you or anyone else can stop gambling or retire at a certain age. Retirement in gambling depends on your involvement in the activity in question, you can't be sure when you should stop, of course, because gambling is very mentally and psychologically involved, if at an old age it turns out that you still don't accept the losses that have befallen then you will continue to do the activity because of the impetus of emotions and always want to be able to recover losses.

Well don't focus too much on that, the point is not to target when you have to stop gambling, let's look at it from various sides, is it profitable? if you realize that this activity only complicates your life with the many financial problems that come then why not decide to stop from now on? I would ask that if the fact that happened is that you experienced a lot of financial problems after entering the activity. Although yes I understand for those who are already addicted it is difficult to do, but that doesn't mean you can't, don't involve the age factor here but think about what is more important than that, which is trying to quit from now on, slowly, it's better.

That's all rubbish, gambling is for everyone no matter how old they are, what ethnicity or race they belong to, which country or region they live in, or even which religion they follow unless their religion forbids it. There is absolutely no need for retirement from gambling as long as it is not affecting your finances negatively and you are not being affected mentally or physically because of it. If you gamble to have some fun and you can afford to do that, there is no need to retire and you can keep gambling as long as you are alive.

Different people will have different perceptions about gambling, someday it's not for females, some say that old people shouldn't gamble, and some might even say that it's not for young people, but there is no necessity for any of these to be true and it all depends on the person who is gambling or decides to gamble.

I am meant to understand that gambling is for everyone irrespective of the age bracket. All humans are free to gamble as long as it pleases them and they derive satisfaction from it but the only thing I can say that stands as a barrier to gambling can be regional or country laws. Possibly a country might prohibit her citizens from gambling and therefore puts a law against gambling and punishment for those who goes against it and another thing I think is that a country can also put laws restricting some certain age bracket from gambling and as such punishment would be awarded to those who goes against the laws restricting stipulated age from gambling in that country.
Therefore, age factor I think is not a criteria for gambling retirement. People are free to gamble irrespective of their age but the only thing I think can stand as a challenge is their various country laws prohibiting gambling exercise or having clauses restricting some certain age bracket from gambling.

There are many cases where people who like to do many activities must know how to control themselves and as age advances things in our body also, that is why we must always be active, so when we are a little old, we must be very Careful with certain things, the first thing we must be careful with is that when we are totally in our activity we cannot have strong currencies, we must see the game as something to lose or win, and if it is to win it is enjoyed, if it is to lose it is assumed and enjoy the knowledge that led us to do it, in any case everything is paid in this order of ideas as a person gets older and older there are things that are prohibited to them, food, sugar, among other things, a person who You know that certain activity harms you, for health reasons you should stop doing it.

When you go to the doctor and they do Simple tests , you begin to realize how your heart is, how your blood pressure is, and in every electrocardiogram that is done, the story of what happened appears, so in this order of ideas we We must draw conclusions quickly, whether or not to go to expand the idncioaciens of a doctor, when people suffer from the heart, it is known that they should not receive strong emotions, that they should not get so excited about some activities in life, it is something normal and that It has to be done for the better, so when you are banned from entering a casino, however, the people like the casino, but they are banned because of the emotions they experience, so they should do the little things at a time, not take away the confidence once because the person becomes depressed, and make a plan where they try not to get so excited, perhaps with small money bets, with juice sessions that may not be like before, because the important thing is the outcome, but as long as Even if these emons do not exist or Anything like that, you have to let them do their activitie s, because that is what will keep a Person Alive.

The gambling is for all age group,but we should understand the fact not all the old people will have the money for the gambling at their old ages.Some old age people hard to survive at their old age because of their children left them at the old ages by taking all their assets to their names.The gambling loss will affect the mindset of the gambler,So the young people had the capacity to control the mental stress by making some trips.If the old age people had few dollars for the entrainment,So how they use the money for the gambling.It’s better to do gambling at your old ages,when you had huge money at your old ages.So if you survive without that money.

The set of people that are suppose to be enjoying gambling are the elderly people. When you retired from work and you nothing doing, you may choose to gamble for enjoyment and relaxation. You will definitely be bored when you are at home. You may just keep yourself occupied with gambling, and before long, and I am sure by then the person will have experience, they won't be gambling with a large amount that will have any effect on them even after losing.

It depends on everyone, but I don't think there is anything like a time to retire from gambling. You can choose to stop gambling whenever you want, and if you like, you can keep on gambling till your old age. I just see it as a choice, so it's up to everyone to decide. Gambling sites are always against underage gambling, but there's something like retirement age, so it's left for everyone to stop gambling when they want.

Gambling isn't a kind of hired job which those who engage in it retire when their service years are over however, I think there should age limit in gambling sites that should not allow people above 65 years to engage in gambling. At 65 years a man isn't a expected t gamble because I think the effects of gambling isn't supposed to be experienced by aged people as it might medically   be very bad for their health. Wether it's a choice to gamble at old age or not, I don't I think it's good from people over 65 years.

I had already posted about the fact that people at very advanced ages, that is, old people, have a higher risk of having heart problems, but I didn't go into much more detail on this subject because I didn't have a lot of time, but looking at this thread today I immediately remembered that I didn't have much time to talk about this subject, but today I intend to address it more. Looking at this article that talks about how age affects people's hearts:


source: https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/heart-health-and-aging

This is an article that only talks about heart problems, it doesn't talk about gambling and it doesn't talk about the relationship between gambling and heart disease. obviously because they focused on other points, but when a person is over 50 years old, that person can easily develop heart problems and that person cannot be stressed, but it happens that when a person plays in a casino, that person he is putting money in, this person is putting his money at risk, unlike other things that people pay for to have fun, games and something different, I myself said that taking 50$ and buying beer, taking 50$ and buying food, taking 50$ and buying fuel for the car, taking 50$ and going to spend it on the beach, and something different than taking 50$ and going to play in a casino

This difference becomes very visible because when people pick up $50 to go buy beer, from the beginning they have no expectation that the $50 could be $60, or $100 or $300, they know they are going to drink the beer. and it all ends up in their stomachs. So there is no reason to regret it after consuming the beer. but when they put 50$ in the casino, people already create the expectation that they are going to make money, no matter how much they lie to themselves that they are not looking at gambling as a source of profit, at the end of the day they are playing for profit and when they lose they become angry, hateful and blame themselves. These feelings are dangerous for old people

Gambling ought to be anticipated by working class individuals and not some jobless individual that sits at home and entirely rely on gambling. When aged people engaged in gambling, I often asked myself what are their intentions because they're held to major responsibilities which is weigh bigger than just settling for peanuts. At the age working age of 30-45, a man should have implement solid investments that will serve as a dependable stream of incomes. We're humans and most of us are vulnerable to the circumstances we face that easily breaks us.

I didn't know there were people who thought there is an age you should retire from gambling, because in my perception, gambling is much more popular among older people than among the young ones, especially elders. In every physical casinos I've seen there were more old ladies and gentlemen than young adults. Maybe it's changing now with online casinos and widespread technology and internet in every corners of the world for the young ones, besides they being heavily bombarded with gambling ads everywhere.

Anyway, I don't think there should be a retirement age for gamblers. Sometimes for old people around their 80's and 90's it's the only entertainment they still have under their disposal. So let them enjoy it.

Well, what you say is interesting, although I don't agree with that, I think that 65 years old, although some may consider it a somewhat advanced age, I think that people need to feel young, happy and that they can do anything, so in life Of this, the more Activities a person has at that Age , obviously at the correct average, under a control where they do not try so hard and can harm their mental and physical health, because for me it is ideal for them to do Whatever, in fact it is a person who is in the gym, who practices a sport or something like that, well it seems to me that things are great, because what makes you old is sometimes yourself , but if you Maintain a well-trained body with many options for do things well, because I think that is something that can be generated as something very good, I have seen how some people can go wrong because what affects someone the most when they get sick is their body.

In fact, I have seen that a person as seriously ill as cancer is, the person does not actually die from it, they die from a heart attack or something, obviously caused by the cancer, but it is because the body becomes malnourished because everything goes to waste. cancer, but if we are only people who lead a life that is purely sporting, we will have very good defenses, and this will prevent cancer or any carcinogenic formation, because our body is capable of that, then I can say something as long as we have a strong mind and a well-worked coupero, we are people who can take advantage of age and do what we want most, because it is our body that needs a lot of maintenance, I think that the older we get, the more we have to maintain our body with exercises, with sports, with the right vitamins, but I think that is the secret, and if it is also accompanied as an activity like the casino, why not? We are having a good time, we have fun, we do great things.

Their are many factors that can lead to the end of playing gambling In aged people.  Sometimes what stops aged people from gambling is when they stops having interest for the sport they love, this can reduce their interests for gambling.  Another thing that makes old people not to have too much interest in gambling is illness, this can make them not to have much Interest for gambling because of struggling for life. The truth is that one can nor be a gambler forever, their will be a day that will be the end of everything.

There would be no limit as long you do like and as long you dont get bust up yourself on doing gambling because this is where people do usually stop on the time that they dont have already the money to spent.
It is really just that a very common approach that you would really be that stopping when you dont have money but if you do have and able to sustain yourself then there's no such thing about stopping.
Doesnt matter on what the age you do have as long you are capable on putting up some funds or deposits then you would really be doing it. Somewhat people could freely make out deposits according into the likes
they should really be that always mindful on what are the things that they should gonna do on which they would really be that focusing that much into pouring up funds into gambling
without having that kind of control or moderation. If you do find yourself that in such trouble then better to stop gambling right away.

Well majority of the hobby and vices will most likely stop if you have an illness. Most of us fear death of illness and the things we enjoy like gambling will not be enjoyable anymore if we a threat in our life. But I think one reason why gamblers quit doing gambling is the interest of gambling, sometimes spending so much time on things makes it boring given that there's not much to see or to expect from doing it. Gambling feels repetitive for me after playing it for years, the adrenaline rush I get before is not that much compared today as per my personal experience. I agree that we all would quit and I think that there are only few of us would quit because of an old age.

If a man isn't still sensible enough at 40 to overcome some petty sentiments about how payable gambling is, then he isn't just ready to let it out at all..
An aged man wouldn't wanna stress himself more by gambling away what's supposed to be "a life saver" to him - since he ain't working no more... If an addiction gets to that level, there's absolutely nothing to do about it... Especially if the person involved is an average man.

There is know discrimination in gambling weather young or old are allowed to gamble so in as much as gambling is a game of risk there are also people who plays it for fun, however most of the old men still loves to play gambling because of the joy they derived from it and it also serves them as a reminder or feeling that they are still young because there is one old man I no that loves to gamble so much and he told me that the only thing that makes him happy is gambling so that's why he loves gambling.

Perhaps the reason why most persons believe that gambling is not for old is that they have the mindset that the old men could be reckless in times of there gambling attitude and there is every possibility of becoming an addict on the process.

A gambling doesn't differentiate old and young age to participate in a gambling, I do believe in gambling with your wisdom not a gambling without good predictions, old people who enjoy gambling for leisure or entertainment do play gambles and it's not all because they want money but only because of they are catching funds, so therefore I believe that gambling have to do with luck and it doesn't have an age bracket that you will get to before you retire in a gambling, a gambling retirement is strictly base on mindset and decisions it's your decision that will make you to be retire in gambling, but what that is not encouraging is for someone who is at age of 12 years and 13 years to engage in a gambling, I think its not accepted in most civilised countries.

Really at 40?

At 40 some people are just joining gambling in some jurisdiction because of unemployment or out of job frustration, they believe to try their hands and luck on gambling. Some people gamble for this reason, the reason of frustration and the age of 40 is mostly the season that is most difficult with challenges and I don't know if there is a connection with the saying that a fool at 40 is a fool for ever. Perhaps is the most difficult time to take a decision of old age but in this hard economy, it appears more people are still gambling and looking for luck in gambling at such age.

Age is based on the different gamblers,to me it’s better to make the gambling retire after the age of 50 years.Because after the 30 years it’s hard to handle the financial problem including the family expenses,the medical expenses of the old age parents.So it’s better to quit the gambling after the age of 50 years.Already we had enough problem during the age of 50 years,So the gambling loss will not allow us to live a peaceful life.So take a deep breath at the age of 50 and retire from the gambling.Many people at the age of 50 years struggle to live using their holding money,So the gambling will not fit for them at the age of 50 years is my opinion in this.

Well, if you are referring to both online and physical, I don't think that at age 65, it is not appropriate for that age to gamble. Why? Because I've known quite a few elders, including my grandparents, at that age they treat gambling as their past time only, as their entertainment, and as such, they don't waste too much money, money that is enough to make them happy. For example, their bonding with their friends is gambling, and not every time gambling games should involve money. Sometimes you just need to enjoy the game, and thats what the elders do. There are more older gamblers that play because of the fun and not about money. So I don't think that at age 65 you should limit a person from gambling. With money involved, yes, but in games only used in gambling, they should enjoy it as they age we can't stop them on what is making them happy, maybe just guide and limit them.

At that age we are very vulnerable to disease and our abilities have begun to decline so that the income we earn will be much lower than when we were young. However, not for people who have sufficient finances and good economic stability, so that people can still continue gambling. Even though at that age we have quite a lot of free time, it would not be wise if we had to fill that free time with gambling. And it would be good if at that age we focused more on paying attention to our health and that of our family, because maybe on the outside we really want those moments, they really miss the warmth of a family.
And if you decide, the best thing is to stop, then stop gambling.
Here I don't know your current age, but I suggest that you reorganize your gambling activities and start not gambling too often. If you currently gamble twice a week, then try as much as possible to only play once a week, continue to narrow down the time you spend gambling, so that when you are 50 years old, you can easily and completely leave gambling behind. Remember that gambling is very difficult for us to stop and we cannot stop gambling all at once, we need to do it gradually.

I agree with you. Maybe people who have entered old age can play gambling games that they used to play but without using money and it will be more interesting because, considering their old age, maybe their hand speed has decreased a lot so it will become a laughing stock for friends. -her friend. But if they use money like they did before, we should remind them not to exceed their limits because they can get carried away and they won't remember to stop playing. Old age should be able to give them wisdom by not doing the things they did in their youth. They can reunite with their friends while telling stories about their experiences in their youth so that it will be a beautiful memory for them that will never be forgotten.

I think you guys is pertaining those backyard gambling that typically use cards or mahjong and play with their friends because that’s the only type of gambling that I know which requires agility when playing. Online casino and physical casino on the other hand gives you enough time to bet and play since all of them is straightforward and typically have dealer to deal the game.

I knew a lot of elderly around 60’s that still active on gambling mostly on roulette and craps. Being old is not a disadvantage on gambling since it’s not a physical activity after all.

Is gambling now officiall thing to be considered of age? Out of respect, it might be worth it if you are a well respected individual in the community, I will advise you to never go to a public betting place, it reduces respect and dignity you have built but if you play your thing at home, I don't think any person from somewhere will question your gambling activity, not even your kids because you don't use their money to bet. Although, as we age, some strength and skills might fade away especially some games you might love playing will go into extinction.

If you are also sick and old, please refrain from gambling, playing at an old age will affect you psychologically when there is loss, if a stage is reach that you develop a hypertension, they should quit because I can't imagine losing your money and then all of sudden you became angry and then developed a high blood pressure, if there is no proper medical attention, it can lead to death. There are many other symptoms old person can have that could be dangerous in gambling at old age.

Stupid question.

Does this even need a discussion?

Considering gambling as an entertainment factor so you are allowed to gamble as long as you are enjoying it. If you feel forced to stop doing it simply because people consider you are too old to enjoy then just F**K their ideology.

Gambling is not a job or anything, which one needs to retire from it. As long as you have the money and the passion to gamble, you can gamble at any age.

Even the old people can enjoy gambling as long as they are healthy. So enjoyment has no linked with age. You could be in your teenage and have tension about your exams, or you may be in your youth having tension about your job and there can be an old man with no tension and hence you can't compare his enjoyment level (in gambling) as compared to the other two.  :)

It doesn't matter whether that person, that gambler is 18 years old or 80 years already but as long as they can enjoy gambling and still have the capability to do it, why not? Gambling is not about age but for someone who is willing to accept whatever the outcome of their betting habits. I can retire when I want to, not because I was 50 years old already but because I stopped gambling. The most important thing is that we find gambling as a sort of entertainment and fund, nothing else like a tool for earning money.

Gambling is for adults regardless of age, there's no retirement age in gambling I doubt if there are casinos that restrict players to play at specific age whether, on landbased casinos or online casinos, you can only retire from gambling if you cannot see the cards or have a hard time with your vision or having a hard time with your movement, even if you like to play if the body cannot keep up that's the time to retire from gambling.

Actually post-retirement period is the age for an individual to enjoy their life because they run all these years behind in money, working 12 hours a day and everything to meet their family's needs so if someone at old age has the affordability to gamble then they should gamble and they know how to handle the finances better than half baked millennial mindset.

That's what I thought as well because as we already know gambling is not like a sport where when you turn 40, you consider retiring because your body is no longer capable of hard work. While in gambling you won't have that problem and the longer you play the more you get addicted to it. That's why others called it quitting because you are not necessarily retiring rather you are turning away from it because you want to save yourself from further distraction. Some people just quit playing whenever they feel like it has more harm to them than getting benefits from it.

In general, gambling should only be for adults, because on the other hand it is very dangerous if it is done by young children under adolescence, because obviously for minors they have an unstable personality, cannot fully distinguish between good and bad, and also on the other hand their curiosity level is very high, so with that gambling is very dangerous for them. But on the other hand, along with the times, it is not uncommon to find a child who gambles, no doubt because there are many factors that influence them such as the environment and the many gambling promotions on social media that they will easily find.

Of course, I agree with you, there really is no retirement age in gambling, for this issue will really depend on each of them (gamblers) in considering which is better to do. Honestly I will not look at the physical aspect of those who are old so they are unable to gamble in land-based casinos because they will have difficulty with the level of endurance that has begun to weaken, but I will only focus on the main impact of gambling, if indeed the activity is only / can cause a lot of problems for them then there is no need to wait for old age to stop, it's better to do it from now on because it's the best for yourself. Never target the time of retirement but look at the impact.

Playing cards and mahjong are gambling games that are often played by the elderly just to remember their gambling moments in their youth. Even though they may not use money when playing, it is enough for them so that they do not experience any problems after they finish playing. There may be something missing if they don't use money when playing cards or mahjong, but that is for their own good.

Indeed, getting old is not a problem, but they should recognize for themselves that they no longer need to gamble like when they were young. Times have changed, everything has changed, and they also have to change, especially now that they are elderly.

I don't think there should be an age for people to retire from gambling. As long as someone enjoys gambling and is able to afford it he should do it. Gambling is a form of entertainment and we can't really exclude people from it. It's not like we can say people should retire from visiting the movies, or going out to a bar. This is a choice everybody needs to make for himsellf and as long as there is no problems in our everyday life I don't see any issue. Older people even have more free time than younger people and still a fixed monthly income from their retirement fund that they can rely upon. The most important thing is that there is no negative effect on your life, for example gambling away any large savings. Once you retired there won't be any chance to find a job again and make a lot of money again. So, all the money you might want to leave behind for your childrend and grand children should be kept safe and not be used for gambling. Other than that I don't see any issue for elderly people to still enjoy gambling from time to time. My grandfather used to play lottery into his 80s and my grandmother still enjoys playing scratch cards in her 90s. Nothing wrong with some excitement in life.

Gambling has nothing to do with age, as long as people can do it responsibly, no one need to retire at any age. Some old people may need recreational entertainment like gambling while they are also socializing with others. It happens in my place, there are still many old men (above 60 even 70) who like to gamble in some special moment/event. Of course I believe they do not do it for money, they just want to gamble and having fun with some other people. My grandfather (87 years old) is still gambling some time when he wants. I asked him why he does it, he answered like "just for fun and nostalgic".

Some people still gambles in their old age with some old school games, in my home town, old men who can't work again now keep themselves busy with gambling and they use something else apart from money to gamble, I have seen then using plate of food, bunch of plantain and even tubers of yam, they are doing this to make the game more fun and women around the village including children will gather around them forming a big circle.

I can't tell someone not to gamble at their old age, any old man that still gambles at such age already knows better, they are doing it the right way and you don't have to lecture them, like when do you come into existence? They are here before you and they have seen a lot.

Such people are the type we go out to for advice seeking, and don't think because they are into gambling that they are useless people, the few old gamblers that I know are very smart, my father used to warn me about gambling but some people are far ahead of getting addicted to gambling, those old men did it for fun not for money.

Gambling is not a government job that has a certain age limit and after crossing a certain age a gambler retires from gambling. I have also read many posts of people who have chosen gambling as their career after getting pension from their jobs. People who are intelligent and knowledgeable about gambling can gamble at any age. There is no specific age limit for gambling and retirement from gambling. A senior citizen can gamble as long as he feels his brain is fine and he can gamble properly. People may retire from gambling for different reasons but there is no set age at which a gambler must retire. 
You should consider whether you can say what age you should be gambling.

You are not wrong about that, gambling does not have an age limit, and there is also no limit that should be set on someone from any party, they are free to gamble anytime and anywhere at any age if they want.

I think it's more of a life plan and/or life principle, someone may plan to stop gambling at an age that they have set for themselves without pressure or orders from others, so I hope you understand the context.
 
Everyone doesn't think that gambling is a career and that there should be an age limit attached to the activity but in a life plan one has the freedom to limit anything in life for plans in old age, there may be some people who want to be free from gambling after their target age is reached.

A lot of things in gambling depend not on age, but on luck and intuition. And these qualities are present in a person at any age. The main factor here is whether a person succeeds or not, not how old he is. Betting is not a sport that has age restrictions

Agree. The ability to decide and make their own judgement shouldn't be taken away from them. Gambling knows no age, except of course if you are underage. As long as you can afford to make a bet and play, you can do so. There's no age limit in gambling. If you want to play on your retirement age, it's fine. Just make sure though that you are financially secured so you won't be a burden to other people. That way, you can still sustain yourself and your gambling habits. It's not bad to have gambling as a form of entertainment once you go old. However, as much as possible while you are still young, you should save for your future.

Safeguard your retirement fund, your home, and your well-being so you won't have to experience awful life for making poor decisions. Saving now while having fun is the best approach. We can always enjoy the present without sabotaging our future.

The age when you no longer have the money for it. I mean even when you are 80 years old, if you have the money for it then you should try to have some fun, it is specially important if they really take it aside and end up with something decent, it would be a smart decision without a doubt. However, if we are talking about a situation that is like you have not that much money to gamble, then you can be 20 years old and still should stop gambling all together, at least until you have the money again.

The amount of money you have is the decisive factor here, not your age, it doesn't matter how old you are as long as you have the money and it doesn't matter how young you are if you do not have the money. I personally adjust my amount based on how much I have, never gamble more than 5% of your salary monthly, that's the amount of risk I am willing to take, and 10% goes to investment if I can, not recently but I try my best at least on months that are nice and decent.

It has nothing to do with age, but most elderly people cannot restrain themselves from having fun and can overdo it so it is feared that they will not be able to be responsible because of the pleasure they get from gambling. In fact, elderly people can look for other recreational activities or entertainment instead of gambling, where there is no risk of losing too much money. And most elderly people will say, "just for fun and nostalgia," and that's true. Yes, it will be up to each person, but it would be better for elderly people to be directed to other things that are safer for them.

Although I agree with your views on personal freedom and gaming without age limits, I believe it is important to think about the many effects. Regardless of age, making smart choices is required. Although, chance-based games can be harmful to people. According to what you said, financial stability and protecting your retirement fund are very important. It's tempting to gamble, especially when you're older. Public education about money and supporting smart choices are needed here.

Fun is important, but so is keeping things in balance. Enjoy the present without giving up the future. Advocate for complete financial education to assist individuals of all ages in making important life choices and safeguarding their health.

It all depends on the gambler. There are people who quits gambling because they can find no sense or enjoyment in having gambling activities or some quit for good but yeah, it's nothing to do with age unless the gambler is underage of course. Elderly can be out of control sometimes but if the elderly gambler built a habit of controlling himself on what to spend, generally speaking he learned how to responsible in gambling, I think it is safe to assume that even if he is an elderly, he can still do gamble responsible since he carry out the habit of controlling himself.

Sooner or later, we all will find the nostalgic feelings on gambling when we reached the age of an elderly.

Sure financial education is very important to our gambling habit irrespective of age. There is no age limit to being educated and to be financially prudent. To gamble irresponsibly is an inimical act that can take someone backward. The young who is gambling needs to be responsible to it and the old likewise need more pragmatism because old people even need money to sustain themselves since they may not be physically active to do other jobs incase their bet is lost and that is the more reason they need to manage their bankroll while they are gambling.

However, I have seen old people who are addicts and are high stakers as a result are homeless because they are greedy, betting with their life services. Financial education is very important both in gambling and our daily life

Regarding age, gambling shouldn't have any boundaries and limits.

As long as the gambler, regardless of the age, is responsible, discipline, knows very well what they are doing, not a bullshit piece of gambler, knows their limit, have a good dealing ability with their temptation, able to control their eagerness to play, able to turn gambling into advantage and so on, they can just gamble whenever they want.

Don't mind these gamblers having these traits that I mentioned.

Instead, a person should retire from gambling, not with the age, but if they already fall at the trap of gambling.

So it depends on each person if they are elderly but if they can still control themselves well, they certainly won't experience any problems while gambling. But as we know, elderly people usually want their wishes to be obeyed by the people around them, and if their wishes are not complied with, they get angry. But it's better if they don't have to gamble. Otherwise, it will only cause problems for them and their families later. Apart from that, those who are used to gambling in their youth need to think that they will not need to gamble anymore when they enter old age. Moreover, they know that they have experienced a much different decline when they were younger.

For me quilting has never been something that I consider for now and that is because,  I am still enjoying gambling and for such I think will still keep myself entertained throughout old age and so such, I may not have any specific time frame to say that is the age I quit gambling and since I also gamble just for the fun,  I don't think my gambling habit will become a burden for me in the future when I am old.

The only time I will consider quitting gambling is when I start having memory losses that lead to steady losses that I can't control,  at that point I will give up because I know then that I may not have any more chances to fund my gambling activities through the games.

If I also start to be on that point that I am losing my memory then that's possible that I can no longer gamble anymore. And it's likely that I can't remember that I am gambler.

There can still be some ticks of memories that I am gambling and when it does and sees the sign of it, I might stop it but I don't know. If the situation goes to that point, I wonder how I'll be able to do that.

So, age of retirement for me varies and I have no idea what exactly it is.

Gambling is not the government job,but some gambler use the gambling as their full time job.Because the gambler had huge hope in the gambling sites as compared to the government job,the trading itself not give the profit more then the gambling profit.But the gambler should need of more luck in the gambling and the tactics for the gambling.Many times the gambling and trading was compared because the both the gambling and trading was be success one with the tactics by yourself.The gambler who do the continuous gambling and posses the loss will need to pause the gambling for certain period of time.Doin the gambling after the continuous loss will make you to loss more dollars to the gambling sites by the use of wrong strategy agin and again.

I agree with you, gambling shouldn't b affiliated with age for age is just a number and retirement from gambling should depend on the individual's disposition with respect to gamble. Large number of old people that gamble is mainly to not stay bored as they as always left to stay alone at home when everyone has gone for work. They use gambling be it online or an in-house gambling medium to stay occupied.

For old people gambling can be helpful in creating happiness within them as they don't play particularly to win money like the young gamblers aim at. It's argued that most older people that have a hobby that they use in occupying their day putting smiles to their face tend to live longer than those of their age that always sit bored with nothing to catch fun with.

It should be on which there should really be no such thing about those age limits yet anytime we could really be able to quit up if we do see that gambling activity had already made out effects into our lives on which it would really be just that normal that we would really be needing to take up such step for us to stop when we do really reach into that point and doesnt matter on what age it would be. You shouldn't really be that waiting up for some retirement about gambling  considering that it is really just that for fun the age shouldnt really be a solid indication that you should stop. Doesnt matter if you are old but still you are free on engaging with gambling
as long you are really just that using the amount on which you can afford to lose and never ever make yourself that too careless when it comes to spending.

If you do make yourself that responsible on things then you wont really be seeing any issues on this then anytime would be your best time to gamble. Dont bother on what your age is
as long you are responsible towards your actions and really have that kind of limitation to spending then it should really be just fine.
People do usually mess up with their finances with gambling on which we are really having that kind of impulsive approach towards it.

For me, most likely the retirement age for gambling is when they can't handle the pressures and emotions when they are losing from gambling. When they reach 70 up, it's better for them to stop from gambling so they can live at peace and have no worries to experience. Gambling is a roller coaster of emotions, while it's good for young because they're adventurous, but it's certainly bad for old age since their emotions at this age are no longer flexible that they can be both happy and mad at the same time.

I do not think that there should be a specific retirement age when it comes to gambling. Rather, it should be more on the mental aspect of the person if they can discern the activities that they are doing at that time.

Contrary to popular belief, in my country, lots of old people gamble. In fact, they are even the high-rollers who tend to gamble away thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single night.

In conclusion, I think people should stop gambling whenever they cannot understand what they are doing. Additionally, if they lack the mental awareness and aptitude, they should consider quitting and focusing on other recreational stuff that can benefit them in the long run.

There is no retirement age for gambling, one can play according to his own ability and needs. Gaming rules and age limits vary depending on the type of gambling performed on designated states and tribal lands. But gambling is usually for an adult as their intelligence is a bit better than their elders can control everything quickly. As an elderly person gets physically disabled and loses their cognitive abilities as they age they cannot control everything easily. If the body and mind are not healthy then it is never possible to gamble it will put more risk. Therefore before playing in old age they should be taken into consideration and progressed as the bet in youth will not be managed in the same way in old age gambling patterns are changing.

You have a point mate, We can say that there's no limit retirement age for gambling as long as you have a fund for that and be sure that you won't suffer in any financial losses and personal problems. Once you're on you retirement age like into 50's to 60's, People should enjoy and make time to theirself so that they can fullfill some chapters in their life and If Gambling is one of the things in their bucket list, then do so. it's their life, as long as they don't step on anyone and they don't perverting anything, just do whatever they want.

Well, as players we always have a way of seeing things, 'for me personally, I don't think it's a good idea for a person to play before the age of 18.' not because he cannot or does not understand the game, but because in reality he does not have the necessary maturity to face a game like this, so in view of these things we can assume that the people who are of legal age, adults, are the ones who They are capable of doing it, so in this order of ideas, if I agree that people can play from that age onwards, because they better understand everything that is maturity, self-control, they have a better sense of money care of the muismioo and we can speak more clearly about the risks that games and sports bets entail, because of course, sports bets fall into the link of this classification, so this is the same and implies everything related to risking money and soo Risking money is dangerous.

Adults are the ones who are very clear about this and know that each mistake can cost them a lot of money, because it is their responsibility, there is no doubt that people can assume everything they know in order to take care of it, multiply it or in their I defend losing it, this is the only thing that can be very relevant, all of us are the same weight that we always want the best and we want to win, we cannot be thinking that we can be wasting money, the casino can be very relevant in this sense, always because the games chance or any other style can make a difference, that is why we must be aware of everything, age often does influence things, knowing how to play and knowing how to do in order to determine the best, for me that things when they are of age, I will always agree that they are after 18 years, adults, where they have a lot of maturity so they have to do it that way.

gambling is not for anyone neither for young people nor for old age people because for fun there is already lots of other things as gambling will turn your life in opposite direction of your hopes. Retirement is only possible if you are in a job so government will provide you monthly pension as well as other facilities but retirement from gambling cannot give you anything therefore if one field has no future then why we are focusing on that?

Remember that once gambling become addiction then you will not be able to retire from it even at old age as gambler are in desires to solve all their problems but unluckily he creates more problems without solving it. You can think better but according to my experience i just think that instead of wasting money and timing in gambling one should do a job because small amount of money with satisfied life is better than huge amount with a life full of stress.

For me it's not the age. Gambler should retire in gambling once they start losing their self control before it gets worse. Cause for me, as long as someone is capable of controlling their gambling desire, there's nothing to worry. Even if you're already old and you still have money for this kind of leisure, you can still gamble because it entertains you. Because it's never about the age. There are gamblers who starts become addicted even at their younger age. Some becomes addicted when they get older so it depends on the gamblers.

If you are old and decide to gamble, that's okay, but you have to pay attention to health problems. Because someone who has heart disease should not gamble because in gambling, there is a shock effect that can cause him to have a heart attack, it would no longer be interesting if a person had a heart attack, especially in his old age and he should pay attention to that before he decides to gamble again. Moreover, he should be able to feel satisfied with gambling because when he was young, he must have gambled often. So it is normal if someone who is old decides not to gamble anymore for health reasons.

That's right, there is no age limit or retirement when it comes to gambling and it depends on a person's abilities and capabilities whether they want to continue gambling after a certain age or not. Those who are financially and mentally stable even after getting old can still gamble if they wish to because why not? If you have the money and a mind that is calm and controlled, you can access gambling platforms from the comfort of your home or backyard or anywhere you like, you can go for it as what can go wrong?

If a person doesn't have financial freedom and is struggling even after retiring from work, they cannot continue gambling because they can't. Gambling requires money and mental stability. You can't gamble with an empty pocket and unstable emotions that keep haunting you everywhere you go.

That's right, anyone can retire from gambling at any time without having to wait to get old, at least stop gambling if you can no longer control it because it's dangerous if you continue gambling without control and in the end it can make us addicted and it won't be good in the end which makes life even more difficult. Even living in old age will be difficult if you are already an addict when you are young.

But everyone has the choice to retire from gambling, of course we can also decide whenever we want as long as we feel enough to no longer gamble so we can enjoy other hobbies that are more fun besides gambling, for example doing something fun with the people around us. us, including spending time with our families. The point is, don't become a gambling addict until you are old, at least make the decision to retire from gambling before you are old.  ;)

You only quit when you die. if you have been gambling responsibly and keeping busy while at it making sure that stay properly guided, I see no reason why quitting should be part of it. As long as it is not affecting your health, wealth, and relationship with others.

Do you quit what you love? Nope, you don't rather you do it and give it your best.

I also think the same, the game as well as any other activity is very good for people to continue staying active, I am one of those who think that age is just a number, there is no other way then when we establish a limit to our organism or for our being, well that's how it will be, it will depend on how we program ourselves, that is something that will always be fulfilled, we are not going to look for more excuses for our happiness or that they are to our liking, the activities that we can do while we get older we have We have to continue doing them, and if it happens for some reason that our body or mind no longer works the same or is not up to the task, then unfortunately we must leave things like that, because there is no other way, then when we are in the middle of activities and someone tells us say let's not continue sometimes there are people who leave this world with moral pain because they know that what they do has been taken away from them, and they are given a reason to die, that is what should never be done or allowed to be done.

I had a neighbor, a man who was almost 80 years old, and he was very active, he liked to clean the mopnte with his own shovel, and one day he started going to the doctor and I told him that they did not recommend that he continue doing that activity, but that was the activity that he did, so it turns out that he paid attention, because his family urged him to do it, plus it was a complete pandemic, the danger of getting infected with covid, well all that, in a situation where he put his life somewhat sedentary Well, the man began to feel bad and when he saw that he had cancer, and a few months later he died, so as long as we have the strength to do certain things that we like, we must continue doing them, because it is the only thing that moves us forward in life. do what we like, I am sure that we are in this life to do what we like most, we do not come here to this environment to suffer, quite the opposite, so we must see things that way.

Elder or not, as long as your wishes are appropriate, then expect that it will be obeyed. It also depends on the attitude of the people around us, as there are some spoil people who still gets what they want even though their wishes are seem not appropriate anymore.

I don't think I can do that, as I know to myself that I'm a good person. I hope many others too. Gambling is not bad, and as you said first, there might still be elders who can play gambling appropriately. So why will they stop? Maybe they can also earn more profit out of it and they can gave some of these money to the people around them and those people are going to feel happy.

If it's not for reasons of health there's no retirement age for gambling. You're right, gamblers should swallow their ego and quit from gambling once they notice their gambling tendency has gotten out of their control affecting their normal life and welfare. Gambling should be enjoyable as a leisure and not make us feel trapped under a compulsive habit that makes us lose our physical and mental health, properties and relationships with people due to how addictive we have become to it. Quiting at the early stage of observance will be a self benefitting.

In fact, there are still many elderly people who still gamble. And I saw that they really enjoyed gambling games and played casually. In my opinion there is no age limit (except underage) for gambling, and as long as they can do it and enjoy gambling games, in my opinion there is no problem. And it seems like they play just for entertainment and to fill their old age, with sufficient capital.
And I personally will stop gambling when I feel bored and turn to other games, or other things to entertain myself in my old age.

Yeah, gamblers doesn't have need for retirement as the decision is owned by them. If one wants to, they can stop at anytime. Hence, it'll be difficult to even say for others what age would be nice to stop gambling. I think the answers should be personal. But, since people can't predict their future self, it's still not necessary to say what age we'd retire from gambling. Once health is there, nothing stops me from gambling. As it'll be detrimental to the healing process of the person. We must be careful with our health as old people. Because the body becomes too vulnerable and exposed. Responsible elders in the society can still gamble and maintain the wealth of their family without causing harm to their growing offspring, wealth wise. Who knows they could still win big, while at that age. And it's still a good way to generate more wealth for the family. Players who from youth days, value the positive aspect of gambling, would continue at old age. But, if their kids finds out that their grand dad gambles it can influence them negatively. Hence, it should be done privately, not to lead little kids to start thinking of gambling at a tender age. Aside that I don't consider it as a thing that should be stopped. Just like drinking alcohol, most people won't retire from that habit. Provided they can control themselves and not make it a daily habit.

Soon as you don't get a reliable and consistent source of income. That's when you're supposed to stop gambling entirely and never step foot on this industry again. Why? How about YOLO? Well, picture this.

You're literally at the sunset years of your life, living off the pensions that you've worked your whole life for. With no one to confide with besides probably your old wife, cause by now your kids have their own kids as well assuming you'd even have kids in the first place, how would more money work out for you? You should be looking for more comfort at this point, since every joint in your body's aching and you're literally two major illnesses away from kicking the bucket. Comfort that money couldn't buy you, let alone be provided by something as trivial as gambling.

Gambling, to me is like fun even though you make some money doing it, its just a game of luck and if it keeps you happy and not wasting money (whether or not  you make money from it) you can continue to gamble as long as you want. Its not some government job where you are required to retire or something.

If you are quite successful with it also, I see no reason why you have to place a retirement age to it, you can do it for a hobby while making money off it but if it affects your mental health negatively and gives you heart conditions that are ot favorable, you can retire ASAP.

You talk as if gambling is some kind of duty people must do no matter what, people can and should stop gambling whenever they feel like it, there is not really a set age in which this must happen, it is simply about your own tastes and what you like to do, for example there are things that I liked to do as a kid that I no longer like, as I grew out of them, if someone that enjoyed gambling during their youth does not like to gamble anymore in their adulthood that is fine and they should stop gambling immediately, however there is nothing wrong either with someone that even at their old age still likes to gamble from time to time.

The problem is that when people are over 60 years old, they start to develop many heart diseases and their body no longer has the same health as when they were young. Another important point is financial. A 60-year-old person most of the time the money he has is for retirement and to pay his health costs, in other words, even though this person is very rich, the business will be taken care of by other people, he will not have the health to lying in arguments that can harm you emotionally, things like: company or business losses, problems with government and laws and fines, are the types of things that doctors recommend that people over 60 years of age not get involved in. .

Take, for example, the cases of government workers, they are forced to retire at 60 and 65 years of age, and the reason for most countries in the world to adopt this type of measures, is precisely because our body when it reaches 60 Year-olds need to rest, stay away from stress. This means that it is not healthy for a 60-year-old person to be involved in gambling, not only is it not healthy, but financially it is not a good move, the risk of losing everything: losing all retirement money and also Losing your life is a very big risk. There are many other things that older people can do for fun than gambling.

Elderly gamblers have high possibility of getting arthritis, but not all, only a few percentage of them. I think it depends on the nature of their job, when they were younger. Yet things lead humans, regardless of age, to go back to their older habits, which they've dumped. As a youth that gambles, at old age, a difficult situation like heartbreak can refresh the old man's memory to try gambling as a means of getting over the pains. In terms of finance, not all would lose much money while gambling. Professional gamblers are mainly retired civil servants, who still enjoy the fun of playing poker or slot games. The only challenge they'll have is moving from one casino to another. As a good number of them ain't familiar with online gambling. Not sure for the Gen z, what gambling would look like when they get older. On the other hand, your definition of men at 60 isn't correct across some families and countries. A good percentage of old men in Africa who clocked 60 years are still vibrant and have no issue with health. Most of them after retirement still get work in private sectors to augment their earnings while keeping their brain busy. Hence, if the man or woman is an excellent player and understand money management they can continue playing games and enjoy their old age. Gambling is not that stressful compared to teaching, I've seen some elderly men going to teach, as an alternative way of staying active. Participating in gambling with their retirement money is not encouraged, for all, but I've read of couples that threw their retirement money into gambling and became professional gamblers. Earning more money and living their best lives in hotels and vacations. People are different, and no need to generalize. Still taking precautions is still a good thing, not to be a victim of running broke.

Well, gambling can win based on luck and we come with the aim of having fun so we will never regret it when we have to lose some money for that pleasure.
Everywhere, having fun always requires capital and gambling is one of them, but it still has to be within the right limits and can't be too excessive because gambling has lot of risks that come with it.
And indeed, this is not government job that requires retirement at certain age, it just that it would be better to have target for when it is time to really stop gambling completely, because when you are old you might be happier when you can full time with your family.

Not all gamblers can be successful in gambling and only 5% of all gamblers are able to actually achieve that success.
Talking about success, it is true that the hope of making money from gambling is shared by almost all existing gamblers, but have you ever seen or heard of more people who have succeeded in truly changing their lives from gambling?
I don't think so because most gamblers end up losing more money.
When you are old, will you also be willing to spend more money just to gamble while you can use the money to give to your children and grandchildren who may need it more.

Usually, when people get older, they become more spoiled and want all their wishes to be obeyed by the people around them. If their wishes are not complied with, they will be angry and annoyed and may leave for several hours until the people around them are confused and looking for them.

Gambling is not bad. But the problem and concern is that many people lose control when they gamble. It has happened to many people, and even if an elderly person loses control, they can spend all their money and even their savings. If that happens, what can he regret when all his money has been used for gambling? Maybe what elderly people need to do is try to reduce their gambling activities because they are no longer young and are no longer able to do what they used to when they were young. They should be able to realize that they have changed a lot and it is time to leave gambling.

Are we really gonna consider the elderly person to lose control? Elder people have more experience and we can expect them to know more about gambling and emotions than we know. If elderly people would gamble, they would surely treat it as a fun activity. Unlike a young gambler who has a goal to earn more, older people would probably stop thinking about aiming for that.

I will only say what is in accordance with the facts that usually occur, which means that I quite agree with your assumption that basically elderly people are very mature in terms of their mindset, and with that it is actually quite simple in my opinion to conclude that most likely they will not have the mindset that gambling addicts have in seeing gambling, they will be more able to judge which is better and which is bad, especially for the impact of that activity. In terms of emotional management, it is the same, which means that because they have a mature mindset, they will usually give in or prefer to find the best way instead of letting out their emotions which are basically not useful at all.

I think it is quite rare for elderly people to choose to gamble to fill their old age, no more because the first thing they see is the impact that will be very bad on their lives, on the other hand I see some elderly people prefer to find other activities for their pleasure such as playing with family to tourist attractions or exercising with friends who are also elderly. Even if they choose gambling I am sure they will not be as aggressive as young people, the difference is that the adrenaline and emotions of young people and old people are different.

Okay, so gambling is like going on a roller coaster, right? Though it was fun and exciting, some people did get sick afterward. Yes, you're right; its all about the thrill of the unknown and the chase. But 95% of gamblers don't hit the jackpot. Thats the fun part. Like having a party: it costs money, but the memories are worth it. Worth a lot.

Its almost impossible to get wins that can change your life. Most people? They're just putting coins in a well to make wishes come true. And man, you have to change directions when you get old. Imagine giving up betting chips to spend time with your family. Thats already a win, right?

The catch is that gambling isnt the main thing you do in life. Sure, have fun with it, but keep in mind that its just a side dish. If you like fries with your burger. You wouldnt eat fries for dinner, right? Friends, balance is the key

It's true that some elderly people may become more demanding or difficult as they age. This can be due to a number of factors, such as changes in health, cognitive decline, or social isolation. In the case of gambling, it's important to remember that it is an addictive behavior. Just like any other addiction, it can be very difficult for people to control their gambling once they've developed a problem. This is true for people of all ages, including elderly adults.

But I believe that those elderly experienced gamblers who associate gambling with entertainment and the thrill of potential winnings are people who have self-aware, caution and responsibility, because all those adrenaline turbulence in gambling wouldn't affect them.

Yes, we don't know if it will actually happen to elderly people but the possibility is always there. Older people obviously have more experience than us but we also need to know that older people can lose their emotions too. Maybe they can enjoy gambling more than us because we are often carried away by emotions when gambling. But wisdom does not depend on age because older people may not have good emotional control and want their wishes to be followed. We will only know when we become elderly people and see how gambling develops in the future.

If experienced, elderly gamblers can take care of themselves while gambling, of course, nothing will happen and they will definitely be able to prevent anything and be responsible when gambling. That's also what people who are still gambling should have so that they don't experience problems.

So someone who wants to stop gambling when they are old can decide to stop gambling when they reach the specified age. But if he can't completely stop gambling and still gambles occasionally, that's also okay as long as he can take good care of himself when gambling and doesn't gamble excessively.

Responsible gambling means being in control of all your gambling activities from protecting your funds to avoiding gambling addiction every detail is essential. Unfortunately most physically ill older are unable to manage their gambling activities effectively. Adult experienced gamblers have more knowledge when faced with difficult situations but they can bring everything under control so they take less risk. There are many older veterans who are self-aware but their performance declines with age so it is better not to gamble.

Exactly, it is true and it has become a fact that responsible gamblers mean that they can manage all their gambling activities well, they can control everything including themselves and their mindset, they will not be too excessive in terms of winning because in terms of expectations they do not put too high expectations there, and that means I would say that responsible gamblers they still have a good level of awareness which ultimately makes them able to take some precautions so that unexpected things do not happen, especially addiction.

Yes maybe it's true that the elderly who experience physical illness as a result of age can make them unable to manage their gambling effectively, that's possible, but I don't think so, the management of gambling will not be tied or unrelated to their physical condition, because I personally think that gambling is almost completely in their mindset and consciousness, maybe it would be reasonable if you say that if the elderly have a mental disorder or for example have an emotional character that makes it difficult for them to balance and manage their gambling effectively. But I agree with your last statement that it's basically better not to gamble, they should enjoy their old age with other positive activities that are not risky, it's better.

Some how we can relate the youth age and activities in such age to how we handle gambling styles with the old age. There are people who are old and they still gamble responsibly and not being greedy which can also be traced to how they were playing while at young age. So that is what we have to consider in old age, there are some old people who are very stubborn and won't yield to some reasonable gambling advise, they would bet what money they get from their pension and begin to rely on their children for financial support till the next month. That is not good planning. So as a youth, you can plan how you want to live your life at old age whether you want to continue gambling or to retire out of gambling.

Cant really be denied that as we get older then the way we do think does really become dull yet making up some decision making might really be that stirred up because as we do get older then we do really love on enjoying things without thinking up that much on other things or simply we arent really that mindful if its good or bad as long we do get entertained and enjoying then this what matter the most. Actually its not really that bad to gamble as long you do make yourself that responsible when it comes to your spending. There's no such thing about age when it comes to retirement,
doesnt matter on what age you do have because addiction would really be able to hit on what age, self control would really be that crucial.

Yes, you are right about that, every person who has and should have self-control and moderation in the game, we should not abuse things as such, age does not matter, I have always thought of something as long as our body can endure it, we can do anything. type of activity, perhaps the mind becomes a little slower than normal because our body is not the same, we are moved the same by some things, organs, they do not function as before, but we can continue doing many things, I have always said that when things are tried to be done well, there is nothing to do, they must always be done repeating or better than life, if our mental health is intact, we must take advantage of those turns of life, to be able to do what we most We like it, since we are young we will always seek to have the things we most want, money, and a simple and healthy life, maybe we will enjoy health, but not a lot of money, and without money there is no comfort, life is always hard .

So we are not going to be complete, maybe some of us are, but there are deficiencies in many things, in values and in many other things and that is just that we must prevent these deficiencies from echoing back to us and we start to die, that This is what we should avoid at all costs, for that reason, whatever the age, we should do what we want, it is sad to reach a very old age and not have been able to do the things we liked, and it is believed that it is too late to fulfill them and that is how as long as there is life many things can be done and that is the only thing that should be supported, there is no other option, we should not prevent ourselves from blocking our own obstacles, that is not the right thing to do, it is not the duty to be, because we are They say that we should do what we want, and be or try to be happy, many spend their lives making money by working hard, it's not bad, but everything must be balanced, especially when Responsibilities are acquired, everything must be done everything possible to make a lot of Money.

You answered your question. I don’t know who believes that gambling as an activity is mainly for the young ones in the society. That’s a weird and entirely wrong belief to have as gambling is a pastime activity that is meant for mature adults of all ages.
It doesn’t require much effort or physical strength to partake in it removing whatever limitations old people could have encountered. I can think of several activities that could give more thrill and is more fun and engaging than gambling.

For rich people gambling is like a means of recreational activity. But if you ask a poor then they occasionally gamble in order to make some extra income for the people. Now in this case, you should not do gambling if your age is crossing 50. Once we grow older, our brain sometimes doesn’t do the perfect calculations for the best outcome. So you should avoid gambling at any cost. Moreover if you are someone who have plenty of wealth, then definitely for him gambling is like a source of entertainment. For them there is no age limit to retire.

It is important to understand that age is not a limit, but it can be a barrier that prevents you from comfortably accessing the silver lining. Just think of this as a tool and it's legal for anyone of age to use, so there's no retirement here.
But I think for older cases exposed to gambling, they are mostly people who have a variety of choices to enjoy life. And with gambling, I also have some older friends who often say that if you are responsible enough for everything you do, then nothing makes you hesitate.

Not only that, we know that older people wanted to spend their time and have fun, enjoy and entertain themselves. And what better way it could be is to play and gamble in a traditional base casinos. I have seen this, lots of older men and women, playing slots with some assistance from their niece or nephews or even nurses and maids to accompany them.

So there is no age limit, of course, you need to have money, and most likely those who played have accumulated so much in their life time that they need to used some to again, play and enjoy. So nothing is wrong with that and there should be no age to retire from gambling.

I believe gambling is more suitable for people in their 50s or above when they are retired from work or have their own businesses and have plenty of time to spend on any activities they like but only if they have financial freedom and enough wealth to enjoy gambling without having to worry about their losses, etc. When a person is young and energetic, they tend to be busy working or creating their careers and future and trying to make as much money as possible, and that money they can use to enjoy their life when they retire.

So, older ages are better for gambling and it's a wrong mindset if a person thinks that gambling isn't for old people, because it's better for people who are old and have good financial status and can easily afford to spend as much money as they want instead of people who are struggling to earn money.

As long as people are gambling with their own money and that is an amount they can afford to lose then I do not think their age matters that much, after all someone that is young is confronting all kind of new problems in their lives they did not had on the past and this generates a lot of pressure and stress and they need a way to vent those emotions, and one way to do this is through gambling, as that adrenaline and excitement you can get out of it is not something you can find that easy on your everyday life.

This is the good thing when it comes to gambling, there's no age restriction up to when you can gamble or not.
So long you have your own money and have the motivation to play, why not?
But yes, I believe when someone is getting older, they just look at this facet of their life as just to entertain or enjoy their life.
Not because they are chasing their winnings but because they just want to pass time and be laid back with their life.

That makes sense because as long as we have our own money and we're using it to whatever purpose we want it to be, there's no problem if we're going to gamble it when we're already old or while we're still young. I think that the older people have been composed and stable already and they can easily gamble with their money.

While we're young, I think that we've got more freedom but we don't have much resource to gamble. And that's why when we get older, that's the time we're like out of the cage and we're doing anything what we can with our money. About retirement, someone can dictate his age of retirement but then can also get out of it freely, anytime.

Gambling is meant to be played for fun, right? That's the overall reason why most people gamble, and it has some other benefits too, like relieving stress and helping kill bored moments. When ever one sees himself or herself grow to the age where they no longer have fun with only things, what's the point of continuing to engage in such things?
 
The moment someone has grown up to the stage that they can no longer have fun from gambling, rather they will be addressing it as when I was younger or when I used to this and that, at that point in life, you don't need anyone to advise you that you need to leave gambling and focus on other things in life instead of taking yourself to a place where you can increase your blood pressure due to losing, which could kill you faster.

When we talk about gambling being fun, aren't there many other activities that are more fun than gambling? Such as sports, traveling or other things, which do not carry too high a risk.
And when we talk about gambling being about profit, aren't there many other activities that are more profitable, such as trading, doing business or investing? because gambling is not profitable at all.

So in my opinion, the reason behind most people playing gambling is not about pleasure, but rather that they want to gain profits instantly, without having to work or make any effort.

However, there is nothing wrong with someone also considering that gambling is part of their enjoyment, but when someone already thinks so, then for that person to find other pleasures apart from gambling, this will be something difficult.

Gambling should be for fun only but since it generates money once we win, the eagerness to play will become addicted because it gives you a satisfaction once you get your winning prize, right? you can suggest other activities that's profitable but the question is, Does a person entertain once they do investment and trading? not all of them has an idea on that and maybe gambling is their forte that's why they keep doing it over and over again.  People has their different taste when it comes to hobbies and types of their enjoyment but this gambling activity is the most risky at all.

Yes I agree with you, if they still have money and an ongoing income so that they have money, it doesn't matter. It's just that I think it's not about age but about mindset, they will retire from gambling maybe after thinking about their lives who will have their own families to support  because generally gambling will make bad relationships and this is prone to happen, but back to what I said at the beginning, where if they still have endless money maybe it's not a problem with their habit of always gambling, even though they are old,  because everyone has their own way to enjoy their lives  It's just that it's wrong if people who don't have enough money still force themselves to gamble to their own detriment, and they should stop and justify that bad mindset..

Yes, gambling is supposed to be for fun but the problem is that people don't see gambling like that way. They see gambling as a way to make quick money. They use gambling to make money from various gambling games, which makes them addicted. These people continue to gamble until they are old, which is not recommended because old people should choose to enjoy life and not deal with things related to worldly pursuits. But it depends on each person's perception because they may still gamble when they are old, thinking they are wiser in gambling. Playing gambling when you are old or have not retired from gambling is a choice for each person, but we should think about it carefully, including thinking about all the risks we will take if we still gamble in old age.

I have been gambling for a very long time and have been among gamblers almost my entire life. Let me tell you something, I haven't seen a gambler who gambles responsibly, at least not how the definition goes. People rage and lose more, it's very common.

But there are people who come out of the bad session and are able to focus on other things while others (addicted) just cannot forget the loss and lose interest in other things such as their job, family, etc and that's when gambling becomes a problem.

So, a more relevant question should be "Why do you want to quit gambling" rather than "when to quit".

Usually people would only quit on the time that they literally cant be able to gamble, just because they dont have the money that they could really be able to spend but on the time that they do really still have the funds
then stopping will be out of their vocabulary on which it is really just that a normal approach. Just let them be, usually gamblers are hard headed, stopping will really be always in the end of the line on which on the time that there's nothing that they could pull into their own pockets. We are just the ones who do lead up ourselves into disaster just because of our greed and being stubborn.

It isnt really on the age you do have before you should quit gambling because neither young or old, you are that susceptible to addiction on which this would really be that resulting
into that kind of situation which you would be suffering on huge losses or having that huge effect into your finances if you arent that careful.
Retiring is something that you could ask for those long time gamblers that had been playing and become that sustainable, for new ones? I dont think that it would fit out.

Yes, gambling is like rollercoaster which provides fun and satisfying adrenaline sensation but it will also make anyone feel pain when they fall.
It just that when we gamble within limits and are not too careless, there is little chance of something bad happening that makes someone regret it, even if it happens, it doesn't really make things difficult for someone under any circumstances.
When we get pleasure or even satisfaction, there is always money behind it all and we have to really let it go to pay for what makes us feel pleasure and satisfaction.

You are right and indeed when the time comes we must be able to consider and make the best decisions for the enjoyment that we might be able to get more usefully in old age which may not last much longer.
Sometimes people forget about long-term thinking and they only think about and prioritize what can provide pleasure now without thinking about tomorrow.

It is that gambling is not the only most important thing you have to do in life, there are other things that are more important and must be done, not just gambling to have fun.
Balance must always be priority that is prepared from now on because when we reach the age limit that is considered unproductive, it will be more difficult for us to achieve this balance.

I don't mind that. And if someone says that gamble just for fun, yes, please gamble, because that is your right... and what do I care about what you do in gambling?

However, I just advise you never to assume that this gambling activity is a big part of your enjoyment and deny that there are other things that are more exciting than gambling. Because when you think that gambling is a big part of your enjoyment, then it could be one of the signs that you are experiencing a gambling addiction.

And I also just advise you not to chase profits too much in gambling, or think that gambling is an activity that can give you a profit. Moreover, you think that gambling can make you instantly rich.

That is what you believe but is that the reality ?

Gambling are for Old people in the past  as what we have go ages but nowadays indeed that young are the one who is enjoying gambling , because even in local gambling table i kept seeing  even teenagers are playing.

I know you may ask teens are being allowed? yes because those houses are illegal lol.
correct , ages doesn't matter in gambling as long as you are using money that comes from legitimate one and not from illegal and wrong accumulating .

Naturally, and in practice, gambling doesn't have any retirement age but we should know what is good for us and do it and know what is bad for us and avoid it. In old age, we should be careful about gambling, that age has delicate health, which is why I believe that the gambler in his old age should check himself and his history of betting if it's positive or not. If it's negative, then I would advise the player to quit since there is an obvious reason for that. As we grow old, we need to keep our mental health safe, which is my main concern here, the pressure and shock that we could easily take when we were younger might be devastating in old age. This is why old people should be so careful about gambling especially if they do not have the financial freedom or children that could be supporting them financially. At that age, they should have alternatives that are funfilled too. I believe they can play normal games among friends and family and gist with them to relieve their stress.

But when it comes to money involvement, that's gambling and it might have consequences more than what you expect in some cases. Besides, they might think they are careful enough and are gambling for the fun, but could lose guard over time especially when they are emotional or intoxicated. Anything can influence them to gamble more than what they can bear and you know what that does to mental health, even at that old age.

Actually there's a an age restriction depending on your country of residency and this ranges from 18+ and above but beyond this age is no further restrictions. Provided you are above the minimum age you continue to gamble until you no longer want to engage in gambling.

At older age some persons choose a different kind of entertainment aside gambling because they would want to reduce the emotional rush that comes with this kind of entertainment except they still find it suiting then they may consider continuing but then it will have to cost them some money. For gamblers who has gambled in the greater part of their youthful years may want to continue even at old age.

Not just money loss, but mental health. Gambling, especially if it becomes a frequent getaway, is riskier for the elderly due to their potentially sensitive health. Not merely a choice; mental health is at issue. The elderly may not be able to handle emotional and mental shocks anymore.

Your proposal to switch to healthy, communal activities is excellent. However, what processes facilitate this transition? How do we make these safer, social options fun and social for the elderly? Provide viable, enticing solutions that provide the same emotional demands without the hazards, not merely advise them to stop. Community awareness and resolve are needed for this method. Developing such a setting requires asking: how?

Should not be gambling retirement age be close to or a bit higher than average retirement age in your country. People retire when they arent able to do physical work on same level as people who are 10-20 years younger, but they can still work mentally, by using their brain skills. In about 10 years, humans brain began to suffer from dementia. People start to have problems with remembering things, thinking slow, taking smart decisions. I would say that "retirement age + 5 more years" is the perfect age to retire gambling.

When someone thinks that they no longer want to seek pleasure in gambling, it is a sign that they are satisfied enough with gambling throughout their life so that they can retire from their gambling activities. There is no need to wait for the current retirement time, because everyone can retire whenever they want as long as they have really felt enough to stop their gambling activities.

Everyone will definitely find a saturation point where they will feel bored of gambling just because they are old and their brain is no longer able to think properly, so that's when they can stop gambling. Even though sometimes we still find old people gambling with their friends around the house, at least retirement doesn't depend on age, whenever people want to retire they have definitely made the right decision.

There is a small detail to think about. Gamble is a complex mix of risk, reward, and the excitement of the unpredictable. It's frequently a deeper recognition of life's priorities and values that leads someone to quit gambling. Reflective gambling retirement can be driven by self-awareness rather than satiation.

The assumption that our brain's decreasing capacity drives our desire to cease gambling is an oversimplification. Gambling offers social interaction, cerebral stimulation, and continuity, thus many people like it until their later years. Gambling should be taken personally, like any other behavior. Stopping or continuing depends on personal fulfillment and the changing meaning of leisure, not age or cognitive ability.

I agree to what you have written, gambling and retirement is individual. Retirement in general is very individual. People of specific professions retire at 40+, while someone works till 63-65. I think that retirement and gambling should be divided into two categories, gambling with and without money. People at 60+ (this is based only on a country where I am) often have financial difficulties. Even if their "brain works well", they should not gamble. And there are old people in nursing houses. They have retired long time ago. These people have plenty of free time and they can gamble as long and as much they want, as they gamble without money and due to boredom.

Creating an upper limit when it comes to the age of the gamblers will be very unfair to senior citizens, since they have worked all their lives and they have gained the rights to do whatever they want during their golden years, and if some of them want to travel, spend more time with their family or gamble that is their decision, after all at that age many of them have problems finding something else to do after they retire from their jobs and gambling a little bit can help them to ease that transition.

Older individuals often have a more established financial situation, allowing them the freedom to engage in gambling activities without significant financial constraints. Additionally, with fewer family financial responsibilities at this stage in life, they might feel more at liberty to use their funds for leisure activities, including gambling.

Moreover, having more leisure time is a key factor. Older adults often find themselves with increased free time due to retirement or a reduced workload. Gambling can serve as a form of entertainment during these periods, offering a way to pass the time and perhaps even socialize with others who share similar interests. The combination of financial stability and ample free time creates an environment where older individuals may be more inclined to engage in gambling activities compared to their younger counterparts.



Gambling is not a place of professional carrier so basically, there is nothing like retirement.
It is necessary to undertake a limited age one is liable to get on to Gambling which is the adults age between 20 whereas they have grown to attain maturities to self-confidence at a physical and intellectual level to control its emotions, having the aided abilities to independencies but talking about retirement at OP, this is not a basic source of income neither is it a source of employment.
Gambling is just a term to somedays tends to try a luck if it would profit you at some points of personal decisions in setting up a pace about the gambles.
In the gamble no one cares how old you are to be defeated (win).

Although it should be a personal and advisable decisions that as one is grows older from 60, he should be mindful that his is liable to emotional breakdown considering the level of his mentality faculty also growing weak and so inaccurate predictions and calculations in the gamble may be much more impossible to gain rightfully so, such circumstances should be aimed to step off from the gambling.

You can stop whenever you want. You don't need to reach a certain age to stop gambling. If at a young age you are too deeply involved in gambling which is very likely to lead you to addiction then stop, but if you get old and gamble by enjoying every sensation of the activity then just keep doing it, so stop not because of age but stop when there is something about gambling that has damaged you, for example, your finances, relationships with people closest to you or your health because you spend too much time gambling.

But stopping gambling at young age or in adulthood is very difficult to do and this is more difficult than stopping at an old age.
Those who are still relatively young have great desire for their initial goal of entering gambling, they will do it, gamble all the time to be able to pursue realizing that goal.
Most of their gamblers have the desire to be able to win for certain amount of money and small percentage are gamblers who have the goal of having fun.
This is almost the same as gambling addict who tries to quit, where there will be many difficulties, including the temptation to stay on the gambling site and spend the amount of money they have.
Moreover, at young age they feel they can still work hard to make money so they forget about the risks involved and are willing to borrow if they run out of capital, so how can they stop if they continue to do things like that?
It is still possible to reduce it, but actually stopping at young age is not as easy as we imagine.

And the best way to stop gambling is when we reach old age and really cannot work or do business because we will definitely prioritize using money to meet our living needs and make our family happy at the end of our lives.

Somehow this does not make any sense. What about huge number of addicted to gambling people? People who have lost everything. What about facilities that offer treatment for addicted to gambling? I think that person can only stop when he have or wins enough money. As human desires are limitless, it makes impossible to stop.

Now as to retirement age. I've already wrote here, that until person understand what he is doing, it is possible for him not to retire. Gambling does not require any special physical condition. It is not a professional sport, it is not connected with any danger or hazardous substances, so until person has strengths, he can gamble.

I agree with you because we should be able to stop gambling whenever we want and don't have to wait until we are old. This is so that we can enjoy our old days well without thinking about gambling and can be closer to our family. But if there are people who still want to gamble until they are old, they can do it but they have to bear the risks and must not burden their families. And because if someone is old, they are no longer productive and cannot work well, which will affect their income or they only receive pension money, which may only be enough to meet their daily needs. And remember that older people can lose control of whatever results they get at gambling.

Nothing concern gambling with age, the majority of people become addicted to gambling when they get older. I think it is terrible to see people gamble when they are elderly, it doesn't make sense. If someone wants to stop gambling forever, the best age I can see to do so is when they are between the ages of thirty and forty before it should become late. Because that is best time we should be spending with our family, not worrying about gambling. Gambling is still different in old age. If you are wealthy and you still choose to gamble with your own money, no one will think less of you because they will assume you are just having fun. However, if you are poor still continue to gamble when you are older, that is the worst thing you could have done when you were younger. If at all possible, some people should stop gamble at their young age, because it can get more difficult for them as they get older.

Well to be fair, his note of stopping when you want to stop still applies to addicts since they can only want to stop and actually stop when they're, well, over their addiction. Well granted it is rather difficult, regardless of age to stop whatever addiction you're in. Especially in this day and age where businesses tend to use said addictions to fuel their profits, big and small.


Actually relatively easy to stop at a young age. Just lose all your money. Kidding aside I don't think there's much difference really. If you're addicted then you're addicted, if you're not then you're not. Age doesn't really matter here though it may matter if we were talking about something like frequency though.

In my opinion, there's no age limit when it comes to gambling when the time comes that person will know what to do either quit or continue that's their choice.
Using an old man to set example sounds funny, not all old people are ready to quit yet maybe they still believe they will cashout huge or at they youthful age they decided to choose gambling as a career.
In my opinion you don't have to be an old man before you quit gambling like if you're not profiting from playing bet it's best to quit or retire before you turn to an addict. Have you not seen old men with good health gambling even if with loss he still feels comfortable but some young people they will always feel frustrated and depressed, in my opinion gambling doesn't require a particular age to quit but it depends on your health.

It seems you are misusing the two concepts: gambling and gambling addiction. The question OP asked was at what age would be appropriate for one to stop gambling and not when one would stop gambling addiction. Anyone who is suffering from gambling addiction. Should control his gambling activities through having a gambling budget and control the drive to gamble. They can seek help from family, friends or even therapists if need be.

When it comes to retiring from gambling, I am not sure there is any general age to quit gambling. There is usually a minimum age for gamblers but I have never seen a maximum age. Retirees will have more time and resources to gamble more. As much as I am healthy and still have some cash to spare, gambling for me is a lifelong journey. It is not just for the money but for the fun it brings to many. When all your children are grown up and the house has become boring, gambling might be a good source of entertainment.

Well said. Sometimes the forum just has lots of weird topics and ideas. Gambling is just another form of entertainment and I don't see why regular but responsible gamblers need to stop even at an old age unless they find another hobby or something more interesting to them.

What I noticed on land-based casinos though is there aren't many senior citizens playing. But maybe because I came from a developing country where the majority of the population isn't rich. However, every time I pass by a bingo casino in the nearby mall, it's flooded with old people, especially women.

Yes, that's right, there is no need to target the age for retirement, whenever they want to retire it will definitely have a good impact on them, moreover the sooner the better in youth or in old age as long as using the money for something more valuable will be better, so that the money is not wasted wasted on gambling and had to regret it at the end and in his old age. People definitely have the desire to retire as long as they feel that gambling is boring enough.

Moreover, it doesn't provide any more pleasure, so in my opinion retirement is the right way, because if you don't really enjoy the game and don't feel the pleasure in it, it will definitely be boring to play gambling, one of which is retiring to look for other, more enjoyable fun, whatever it is. because not everything that is fun comes from gambling.

Yes, you can stop whenever you want as long as you're not that attached in gambling because You may find it difficult to stop, especially if you are too invested in playing it. but then again, you can find a ways how to stop it as long as you are willing to stop it at early as possible, you can gambling but you have to be more responsible in your money and time so you will not ended up being wasted.

There is no age limit, the right time to stop gambling is when you can no longer gamble for various reasons. Humans are not always healthy, you can still gamble when you are healthy, but when you are sick or other things make it impossible for you to gamble anymore, then that is the right time to retire from gambling.
In general, gambling has no age limit, teenagers, adults and the elderly can still gamble and can retire at any time. Financial factors or place of residence can also make someone retire sooner from gambling.

You'll think of retiring when you are not having fun in gambling. After all, this is entertainment, right? Why would anyone deprive themselves of happiness with gambling? Though it is risky, one could lose as much money as possible if they don't manage the risk well. But with the thrill that we can feel here, it definitely brings some kind of satisfaction we cannot find in other services, or things we could buy, or any other form of entertainment.

Once you are a gambler, you find satisfaction when you're gambling.

If a person has been gambling for most of his life and really enjoyed it, then it will not be so easy for him to give up on them. Gambling gives us not only vivid emotions, but also gives us hope that one day we will hit a big jackpot and our lives will be able to change for the better. In my opinion, it is difficult to find any other entertainment that can replace all this. Well, maybe only investing in super risky assets.

The buttom line is at the end if a gambler seize to be making money both from gambling and otherwise, they will be forced to stop it. Whether it is done for leisure/fun or for financial gains, it involves money to embark on it and if it is not being sustained when you consistently lose, you go out of it. People who depend on gambling for profit will need to keep profiting and those who are playing for fun also will need third parties that will help them sustain it, so whichever way we look at it, we need money to continue staking for fun or for profit no matter the age bracket.

Your advice is general and I do not expect anyone who is gambling in so managing manner not to stop, they can of course stop at any age in this regard and can find better things to do with their lives. Gambling is not compulsory and if it's money you are looking for, you may want to wisely get it elsewhere, and if you are gambling for fun, you might want to switch games. But in reality, I do not know the person who would be gambling for fun but not for the money that would be addicted to it, that can happen only when the person is not sensible on his own. Is it not the fun of playing it that he/she wants? Then using a little money for betting will naturally grant them access to the gambling platform and they can play as much and as long as they want.

Besides, about the context here, as we get older, unless our gambling activities are positive to our lives, we should know that it's better we quit it, or again when it's at worse neutral. I can't imagine myself gambling beyond the age of 60, I do not know why I would do that. At that age upwards, I believe that we should already filter what we get into our heads, mental health is often taken for grounded but it is good if we could take it seriously and only allow the things that can add to us, not those that can subtract or affect us negatively.

Eliminate what does it mean?
When someone likes gambling, they won't be able to stop easily, don't you know that many gamblers are willing to borrow money to be able to continue their gambling sessions.
Money is not the only effective way to stop someone from gambling because the most important thing is awareness and also psychology for someone to get normal and decent life.

But I think age still has an influence and it is important for everyone to be able to determine when it is time to stop.
As an example, if you had an elderly father who liked to gamble and they were no longer able to work, would you let that happen?
I don't think you will let that happen, and when you reach old age you will definitely think and decide to stop because there is family that needs your time to be together and not just to gamble.

To be honest, I personally have an age limit that has been planned from the start, that when I reach old age and am not productive in making money, I would prefer to rest and spend time with my children and grandchildren.

That's right, they will not easily stop with their gambling especially if they have a gambling complaint where gambling cannot be separated from a person. There are also many gamblers who dare to take loans to fulfill their gambling desires as you said, this is a clear fact. A person who is addicted to gambling, of course, their mindset is no longer healthy and maybe they need help from a psychological expert in order to get rid of their thoughts about gambling alone.

Suppose there is a family member who is like you said, of course I would not let that happen, because old age should be enjoyed properly, if you spend young age gambling it seems like it will take up a lot of time, and time to gather with family can also be a little or not at all, what I'm afraid of is that my father is elderly but still likes to gamble, I'm afraid there will be a fight in the family, because what I know is that someone who is addicted to gambling can commit violence because he asks for money to gamble again, and I don't want this to happen to my family. I can't imagine what it would be like if this happened to my family. I myself like to gamble, it's just that I feel better now. because now I'm not too crazy with gambling, only gambling on weekends and even then if I want to.

and on the one hand, someone who is over 60 years of age has vision and hearing that are so reduced that even thinking a little harder will make their body hurt or something will happen. so I probably can not imagine a gambler older than the age you mentioned still gambling.
but perhaps there are also gamblers who still gamble but their sight and hearing are still very good so they can still enjoy gambling for fun.

actually, age will not influence whether someone should stop or continue their gambling habit, the most important thing is that they are still able to gamble and have enough money. I think there is no problem.

This question is really very funny because the age in which some persons wants to stop gambling can still as well be the same age in which some persons wants to start.This isn't a government work which people will retire from,as long as games  and different sports exist,and people continues to catch fun with it,people will definitely go ahead to gamble because gamble is not only for money, people do it for fun and for the love they have for that particular sport.Well,to answer the question,I can say untill one is satisfied with the money he has got,he won't stop gambling,and as we all know that human needs are insatiable, therefore,age does not matter when it comes to gambling, everybody has the right to gamble,and your end to it will depend on your mindset,and the amount you've achieved from it.

That is absolutely true because the person will feel that he still has a chance to win his big winnings from gambling. There is a possibility that he will not be able to stop gambling even though he is old. But it also indicates that he already has a gambling addiction because he does not know that gambling is a form of entertainment. If he can consider gambling as entertainment, he can definitely stop gambling when he is old because he must think that he has been gambling for a long time and it is time for him to retire and stop gambling. After all, he had probably already won such a sum of money in his youth that it would have been enough for him to abandon gambling. But he can still go back to gambling occasionally with his friends to reminisce about his past.

The situation you describe is, in fact, a very familiar one. Addiction, especially gambling addiction, doesnt care what age you are; it can bite deep no matter what. You're being sensible by only gambling on the weekends, but be careful. Self-discipline is important, and you need to keep evaluating yourself.

Now, lets talk about your dad. This is where taking action is very important. The first step is to talk to each other. Sometimes, having an open and hoenst conversation can bring to light the secret struggles of addiction. Not only do we want to avoid family fights, but we also care about his health and mental well-being. As you said, there is a real chance of bloodshed happening in these situations. Getting help early on, like through therapy or support groups, could make a huge difference. Remember that if you dont stop him, his deeds will afect the whole family, not just him. Not only is acting now smart, its necessary.

Age shouldn't be a barrier to anything especially if age is not telling on you, but for those who are wise, there are certain things they should let go for the younger world. If they want to play games, there are free games out there and they can engage their friends in games, even their wife or their children as the case may be. There are even free/paid games they can play on their phones and other gadgets without betting anything, this is enough for them to make a happy living at that age. There is a lot that old age triggers as a result of the psychology of the person, I don't think it's wise for anyone to continue betting at this age even if there is no loss or age limit stopping them from doing so. Although this is personal, it is subject to anybody's preference. However, I noticed that I do not see many old people where I have been gambling for years, I mean the offline casinos and sportsbooks, maybe this is one of the reasons.

The little ones I see are only betting with a very low amount of money or just coming to while away time. And I believe this is the right sense anyone should engage in gambling as it's not a must that you continue to gamble after some have even gambled for over 40 years. What else do they want? They need to preserve their mental health at this stage, and if it's money they want, they should get it elsewhere, after all, we know how it is difficult to make money from gambling.

This advice subsists unless the person has been a positive gambler for years.

Gambling is not only for young people, seniors can also enjoy it as long as they have more money to gamble, if when they were young they gambled then even when they are old they will definitely not be unfamiliar with gambling and will even continue to enjoy it when they are lonely or need entertainment.
Gambling is actually a means of entertainment for young people, and everyone's parents have the right to enjoy it until they get bored and decide to stop.
I think there is no age limit or when it is better to retire from gambling because gambling can stop at any time even when you are young you can stop if you no longer want to be involved with gambling.
But this is highly recommended for older people who are no longer able to gamble, where they have to focus on their health which is increasingly declining and not think about gambling. If in their youth they were addicted to gambling then worried that in their old age it will be difficult for them to stop lest this could become a problem bad impact on the family and can affect next generation.

Usually gambling platform identic with young age and not recommended for old people, but there are not rule or restrict about older not allowed for participating in gambling depend they have money and have well memorize not matter until how long active on gambling platform. I think ideal age retire from gambling above 40 years old but recommended if you have marriage and get children not allowed keep active in gambling, have priority money for family and gambling is an entertainment only when have free time.
I think have physiology for family if still in gambling how to manage well financial. Before raising 40 years old better retired and reduce your activities with gambling platform although have stable financial but not related when our family see us gambling habit activities.

but in fact there are still many gamblers aged 40+ but they choose to gamble on easier types of games and usually what I know of gamblers aged 40+ choose to buy lottery tickets to try their luck every day and there are also those who gamble playing poker with other friends who aged 40+ to get pleasure.

I really understand that people who are old enough should maintain a healthy pattern without pursuing something that makes their mind unhealthy, but it cannot be denied that an old person needs entertainment and only gambling can give him pleasure or entertainment and as long as it is done positively, no there will be any problems and bad impacts.

We cannot determine when people should retire from gambling because it is each person's choice. Some say that when you are in your 40s you should stop gambling because you choose to take responsibility for your family, etc. But for me personally, I think the right time to stop gambling is when you think you've had enough and no longer intend to gamble, whether because of family, work, financial problems, etc. So it can be any age, if you feel that at the age of 30 you are still able to gamble, then just continue, if not just stop, that's very simple.

And actually with me playing only on weekends it can also make addiction if I don't have good self-control, but I still have limits on gambling even if I only play on weekends. therefore I still have the discipline that I set in every weekend gambling.

Of course I will take measures that can prevent my father from becoming addicted to gambling and gambling out of bounds. also indeed people who are addicted to gambling can have an impact on the whole family and this is also what is not wanted, because why do only one person do it but all are affected. if it's like this of course it's not fair. and I also object to this, if it is one person who does it, he alone should be affected. I also always deal with gambling problems by myself because I know that gambling that is done by myself is not done together. so anyway it must be my own responsibility.

The visions and hearing abilities of a person if get weak then he cannot do anything but stay at bed only. Vision and hearing are God gifted so we will be unable to live a satisfied life without these gifts. I think in the age of about 60 a person is not interested in earning but wants to live a life with silence.

Once a person's behaviour become worse due to gambling addiction then he never think about his age and as you are talking about fun so I think that initial step is for fun but after that it become an addiction so they take gambling as a serious concern for making money. Their mind accept win only so when they loss anytime then they starting bet more and more with expectations that they will recuperate their lost amount.

I sort of agree with you, because gambling is not a job or anything and one doesn't need to retire from it as long as one is enjoying themselves doing it and has the financial capability to continue. It's a different case if a person doesn't have enough funds to be able to continue gambling but we can't call that retiring because the same person will start gambling again once they become financially capable again and have enough money to continue their gambling activities.

So, there is no age for gambling or any other activity as long as a person is capable enough of doing it. When it's a game where you need physical fitness and strength, you stop doing it only when you feel you are physically not capable enough anymore to continue. Similarly, when you are gambling, you only stop when you are not capable enough financially anymore.

The thing is not everyone would want to start gambling at age 80 to 90 years and above at this point people should have set out what would give them money to sustain their life than keep gambling to earn money except for gaming to catch cruise and ease some stress in their life. Gambling is not as easy as you may seems it is because it requires energy and time to focused on the activity otherwise an old man won't even try to gamble. we can say people from age 60 years blow can still gamble if they finds it funny or interacted to anticipate on, most times some gamblers do sets goal when they reach and hit their targeted point they don't mind quitting entirely without involving themselves.

Agreed, this idea that everyone needs to fit into some kind of mold and do everything at the exact same time and in the same way is mistaken, there are people that never gamble, whether this is because of their religious or ethic beliefs, and there is nothing wrong with that, while there are others which could gamble for most of their adult life, and there is nothing wrong with that either, so when to stop gambling is a decision that every single person takes on their own and there should not be some sort of hard limit on when this is supposed to happen.

Sometimes one can get to a certain age and prefer a different kind of thrill and entertainment, at such age gambling may not be their choice as they may think that the rush and thrill that comes with it is such that they wouldn't wan to be caught up with so they will rather go for something calm and with lesser thrill mad requires little to no funding.

At old age most persons become more prone to reacting to complications, for people who are very emotional, it could be advised that once they are aged, they shouldn't be involved in gambling so as to avoid been caught up in the thrill and probably end up with critical conditions but for one who has the money to spend and isn't depending on the money to be able to afford a meal or further take care of their basic needs, because these are factors that when attached to gambling cause the gamblers not to enjoy gambling just as they should.

I think those who really can't get away from gambling or addiction as well as people who consider gambling their life are people with disturbed thinking and psychology, in the sense that they can't differentiate between what is more of a priority in life.
It will be very difficult to stop someone who has experienced something like that and there is no way that can be successful in healing or stopping it unless they want to stop.
Because it is clear that they have different way of thinking and psychology from normal people in general.

So, that is good thought and decision which will not allow any family member, even our own father, to continue gambling activities in old age because time spent with family during this period is the most valuable time.
The warmth of the family will really be felt because when you are young you are too busy with every activity you do, such as working, doing business and gambling for those who enjoy it, so if you still let it go in old age, it will be great shame.
It is true that problems may also occur that allow disputes to occur between family members and older people usually have emotions that cannot be controlled so we must always pay special attention to them.

I doubt anyone would want to start their gambling career at an old age. Certainly not at 80-90 years. At that age, one should just relax and live out the rest of his life with ease. But for people that already gambled earlier in their lifetime, I could still see them gambling till they get as old as that.
Gambling doesn’t require physical strength nor does it require energy from the player. Ages players could still play if they wanted to. A lot still presently do.

It's not known and I think it depends more on each individual, if indeed they feel that this gambling activity only causes a lot of problems with their finances then obviously there is no benchmark when you have to stop and age cannot be used as a reference point, if it can be faster the better. In addition, on the other hand, if you feel that gambling does not interfere with your life at all, especially your financial situation which is still stable even though you are involved in gambling, I think the problem of stopping or not is all up to you, as simple as that.

But on the other hand gambling is inherently risky and I don't think it's ethical to spend your old age carrying your gambling habit around with you, there are plenty of other things that are also fun enough without the risk to accompany your old age, however I have to suggest that because it seems like a better option.

It is very rare for people to reach the age of 80-90 years, and most of those who are older also rarely have excellent health. So perhaps 60 years old can be considered retirement age, so if there are people over 60 years old who are still gambling, they actually need to think about retiring from gambling. They should enjoy their lives well without any desire to pursue worldly things, especially if, in their youth, they gambled very often and even became pro gamblers. But whatever age someone wants to reach when gambling and then retiring, it will be up to each person to decide. We can only suggest it, and then it's up to them.

For a player, age doesn't matter. If a person is 100 years old and a successful player, why should he retire? Here we can only talk about success or failure, and there is no point in talking about age. Each person has his own notions of limitations, and only the person himself has the right to set various personal criteria

Let's face it: gambling addiction is psychologically complex. Bad prioritization is simply one of several cognitive errors. Gamblers often believe they can control outcomes, the gambler's fallacy. This warped perception is a deep-seated belief system that has to be addressed, not just a 'disturbed' opinion.

I differ with you here. This perspective is hard to change, but not impossible. The key? Support and expert intervention. We cannot ignore them and say they won't change until they want to. We must lead them to that realization. You're right about family. Twilight family time is precious, but gambling may ruin it. Empathy, not aggression or shame, bridges gaps. We must be sensitive to their feelings and provide support. The goal is to replace a bad habit with something better—family, interests, community. Balance is delicate, yet we must aim for it.

Gambling is for fun and anything outside that is an insult to the core value of gambling in the most responsible ways as mentioned in their licensing document,  so for that,  I don't believe that age has a lot to do with how someone gambles and when to quit gambling at the same time.

So retirement from gambling is based on individual choice and determination because even at 80-90 years some person still has the free time to play some games and still have fun as long as it doesn't require them to take risks that could affect their financial well-being.

The only time I can say that gambling is stressful is when you are gambling charging a particular direction like a winning or loss recovery,  that way you get burned out as quickly as possible,  but if it is just for the fun of it,  then at any age you don't have any problem at all.

Yes, I agree with you that age cannot limit anyone from continuing to gamble or having to retire as long as they can control themselves not to take too many risks which can make their physical condition worse and I believe that perhaps in various cities there are still people who are over 70 years old still carry out gambling activities but usually they have pension money that will not run out if used for gambling because usually an old person gambles just to fill his free time to find fun because usually his children are too busy with their own affairs.

Does people retire in gambling? Gambling is an activity of choice and we can gamble even when we have retired from our workplace. Gambling is not like our normal jobs that we are going from Monday to Friday and retires when we have worked for about 30 to 40 years. Gambling is completely different from those kind of jobs or activities so I don't expect us to come here and be agitating about getting retired. Retirement is out of gambling, even people that are old are betting everyday without anything like retirement. We can bet and play games anytime we like and that does not need anything like retirement because we are not working for anybody.

Gambling knows no age, both young and old, if they still have healthy health and stable finances then everyone can gamble at any time. So there is no ideal number for retiring from gambling, especially if they still have a healthy memory and gambling is still entertainment for them, of course retirement is not an option.

But this depends on the person too. There are also some of those who are old and have grandchildren, sometimes they want to spend their old age with their family, so retiring from gambling is the wisest choice. To be honest, in my area, parents very rarely gamble openly, this is because they feel ashamed that they are still gambling at their old age. This is also influenced by the culture where parents gambling is a disgrace to the family.

That is a big question,  do people retire in gambling,  don't think so, those that gamble for the fun and entertainment will fine a way to do it at all ages long and as long as they can relate their gambling habits to recreational and at the same time staking it will be fun all the way through for them,  many time old age gives you the time to gamble more and at some point, I am forced to even believe that gambling should be done more by older people than you g people.

Because when one retires from active service there is a need to know what to do to keep body and soul together and to prevent sliding into any form of depression.

What you would consider there is that are those people I mean that age bracket gambling for Fun or gambling to make winning, believe me or not no one would want to gamble were he is not making any profits from his expense so basically no one will respect that point of fun rather would acts on how to make profits from the gambling. Actually you said is correct but there are some points we shouldn't gamble anymore lets say age 90 gambling while their ground son gamble as well as a grandpa what do you think he would tell his grandchild about gambling? So to me age 90 is enough for me to quit gambling..

those who are not initially addicted to gambling and have good things that are their priorities, they will change when they are addicted to gambling, they can make gambling their priority in their daily lives. because those who are addicted to gambling can certainly forget about many things that have become their responsibilities just by gambling that has been attached to themselves. And indeed this must be addressed, because by making gambling a priority in life it is a fatal mistake, where we know that the name of priority is a thing that is prioritized, if gambling itself really makes a profit every time and that's for sure it doesn't matter, but the fact is that gambling cannot provide benefits at all times but always makes someone lose, especially financially. So gambling should not be made a priority in life because it can kill us in the future. also with different thoughts like others that you said, it will be difficult for them to realize that making gambling a priority is a mistake.

It's not a good thing that someone who is old is still fond of gambling, even though old age should be enjoyed by spending a lot of time with family. but have you ever seen or heard of old people who spend their time in casinos? with a physical condition that is not good even they still gamble, is it possible that they have endless money? so they spend their old age in casino gambling.

And most of the people when they get older, they've got more freedom and more money and that's true which gives no boundary that anyone can still gamble at an old age.

If the person have experienced much with gambling and he'd always ending up with losses, he had enough already and much better to have a wiser choice to retire.

But again, we go back to what you've said and combined the two of it. Anyone is free to retire whenever they think there's a valid reason and the same goes for continuing and there's no retirement age on it as long he can avail to take losses.

Actually this do always falls down into the category of someones financial aspect or situation on the time that we do get old. We do know that not all does have that pension
and not all does have that kind of financial preparations on the time that they do get old. This is why it would really be wise into those old gamblers that quitting up for good
should be something that they would really be minding because on the time that you are on retirement age or having no job or income then it wouldn't really be ideal
on keeping on wasting money but rather it would be good if you do really spend out on something important and valuable. Retirement should really be something on spending up your quality time
with your loved ones, i dont see for it to be necessary on dealing up with things which arent really that connected into them.

"More money", I don't think it will always be like that, everyone especially the elderly will not always be able to have a situation with the financial level of the upper hand, maybe your idea is more referring to those who have a financially free situation for the contributions and hard work they have done in their youth so that it can make them reach the point of financial success and become rich people in old age by just enjoying the results of their struggles, not most but maybe only a few who have pretty good finances in old age. For the time issue yes I agree with you that old age is the age of freedom, just a little busy from work due to lack of strength due to age. Basically, involvement in gambling is a choice, it is true that there are no rules about when they should stop whether young or old, what is certain is that if they have money then they can gamble and if gambling does not have a bad impact on their life then please do it, there are no restrictions because this is a choice for each individual.

Actually there are still quite a lot of other alternatives that they can choose to enjoy their old age, especially if gambling activities only interfere with their lives in the sense of experiencing financial problems due to defeats that always dominate, if you are in such conditions then obviously there is no other choice but to retire and look for other activities that are also fun but not risky. Yes, that's right, it's really just a matter of choice, basically it's about whether they can bear the risk or not, if they can then please continue anyway you also feel all the good and bad effects.

Yes, of course, if we compare work with gambling, it will definitely be different because gambling does not provide a maximum age limit to stop gambling and on the one hand, gambling is provided as an entertainment venue for anyone who wants to come looking for entertainment with the requirement of being 18+.
Meanwhile, work is not a place of entertainment and certainly has a maximum limit so it will be very different from gambling.
Gambling is a freedom that can be done by anyone with a minimum age requirement and does not limit the maximum age and the most important thing is to gamble responsibly.

Yeah in gambling,  there are no age limits,  but in work, there is an approved age limits so for a man of 80 years,  that may be the best time for him to start gambling since he already spends all his life in active service,  but that age becomes perfect to gamble,  likewise the young blood,  they also have their own reason and perspective for gambling they're also can say that the gamble at that age to cash fun or make some extra cash,  but whichever ways regardless,  what matters most is the ability to control your self every point in time and not allow your gambling life to interfere with your finances or emotional state of mind at every point in time and in so doing,  you don't have any issues as regards to age differences so long as you are already above 🔞.

The gambling give us the funs and entertainment,So if you feel enough with entertainment.It will be the better time to quit the gambling and take the retirement in the gambling site.At our old ages like 80-90 we are satisfied with the fun’s by our son of the grandson,many had claimed to have their retirement from the gambling between 80-90 years.The young blood always want to risk the money for the better result,this was reason for many graduation doing students joining the gambling at their college days.

The gambler who had their old ages can stop gambling and teaches their grandson about the gambling.So their generation get into the gambling at the earliest stage,their was huge chance for them to gambling in some other ages.But old gamblers encourage will let their younger generations in earlier years.

It's certain that there are a lot of other things that they can do with their age and money but if gambling is one thing that makes them happy, you just can't take away on them.

Too many choices for them as they get older and that makes us also think of what fate we're going to have when we get older and if we're going to retire or not.

But I guess only time will tell when come to that point of our lives.

That's not true, many people gamble not because they want to earn money or get profit but because they enjoy gambling, and I know that it feels good when you win even if you are gambling for fun, it doesn't mean you are gambling just for the money but those wins will give you more money to gamble with which is like a bonus for you if you are just trying to entertain yourself with gambling.

I think it's not a matter of age for when one would want to stop gambling, it's about not being capable anymore, either physically, mentally, or financially. Even if you are 90 years old but have your senses in place, feel healthy, and also have money, there is nothing if you gamble even at that age, it doesn't matter if your grandchildren are gambling as well.

Haven't you heard about someone gambling and lost his gamble after which he committed suicide and took his life, so why didn't he gamble for fun?
Well there is nothing to argue here because we all know that it's very hard for people to gamble for fun knowing too well that they attached the mindset of making profit, yes this could be from your ends that people gamble for fun but deep insidely we know it wasn't so otherwise there wouldn't have been any suicide after losing bets.

I can answer that question with a simple question OP. Is there any age a person should retire from making and spending money.?

At old age there are expenses to make bills to pay and some other things to do like shopping as well. So you still need money to do this. Yes some elderly people have families and relatives that could take care of those needs but they still love making money for themselve, even at that age. These set of persons, if they are gamblers when they were young they would still gambling at old age because the urge to make money through gambling is still in them.

And since they cannot go and work physical work.  The best option for them is gambling. In my country, the best gamblers are elderly people. My uncle is an elderly man and he has been the who influenced me into gambling and i have won upto 70% of the games he has sent to me.

A young man works in a very good company, he's been paid heavily by the company he works for yet he still gambles once in a while. He derives joy in predicting the outcome of football matches and he does this through gambling. Winning is the fun of it and if he loses, game continues another day. Yea deep down everyone wants to win but many out there go to the casino with different motives.

The young man who committed suicide saw gambling as a big deal and must make profit at all cost. That was his motive and he held tight to it like his life depends on it. If he saw gambling from a different perspective,  he wouldn't even think of harming himself. There still many people too who will go extra lengths just because of gambling and that is an irresponsible thing to do. Gambling is a fun activity, it becomes more exciting when you win.

Retirement age in gambling? No, there's no specific age limit. What works for Mr  A might not work for Mr B. While Mr A might retire from gambling in his early 30s to concentrate on a business he's nurturing, Mr B can decide to enjoy the fun in gambling till he can no longer gamble effectively. Everyone should go for what works for them.

Maybe you will have to connect me to that your uncle because i will like to win most of my games too, and if i have such a man like your uncle who will be helping me win most of the games i play, i probably will not have to work anymore, i am just going to retire immediately and just focus on gambling as my source of income.

But bud, on a more serious note now, think about this, do you really think gambling should be depended on as a means to make money, do you really think that those old you see gambling depend on the money they gain from gambling for their livelihood? come off it bud, you and i know that most of those old men already have well established businesses that are paying them good amount of money on daily, weekly or monthly basis, and for some others, they have sons and daughters who are through with school and are already doing well for themselves that some of them even place their parents on monthly salary.
So, this is to tell you that most of these old men we see gambling, they aren't actually gambling to make money, they are gambling to have fun, since they no longer go to work or get busy with anything too serious, gambling is one way they gather to chat and have fun.
And have you noticed that older men usually don't do online gambling? these you already know the reason why like i explained above.

The gambler who get the regular income till his old ages can do the gambling without the retirement.Because gambling needs to have money for the game,if they get at their old age.Then why should they think about the retirement from the gambling,rather they have some fun by playing the gambling at their last years to this journey to world.Some ladies will have the habit of shopping even at their old ages,the men will have habit of spending time in the gambling.Most of the young people doing the gambling in their young age will be drug addicted person.So they will lose the funds at the half minded game.If the gambler play without consume drugs,So they can apply their strategies to the gambling and easy money to get from the gambling site.

Well, personally I have always thought about something, you have to do things when you have to do them at the right time, that is, if you want to play in a casino, you just have to save the money to spend it in the casino, without get your hopes up that you are going to win or something like that, because things can be very different when you start to be able to do something and have fun and gain, in particular whenever you think about the perfect age to do an activity? Well, there isn't one, to retire from the game? If there is something or an activity that we like, why should we leave? because? We have to do what we always like, that is something that we as human beings must always consider, because in what we live we have always been in a system where they tell you, just work until you are 65 years old and after that you will have your monthly money because the State pays it to you, (well in the most prosperous countries they give such a pension) but I consider that if you are in shape at 65, why leave things like that? until that age? No, there is no way, you have to stay there, fighting because that is what you are passionate about.

Now , a casino is always a way for us to have fun ,  and I think that in many people it causes an effect of unique happiness for people and that is what should be seen, I believe that we are in this world because we Deserve to be. well and always be happy, no matter the age, I have always said something, age is a number and it is something that we can endure, and we cannot let ourselves collapse because of that, if we oppose being in other activities, maybe they will make us tired, They exhaust us, but we have to accept that things are better when we do what we like , for that reason it is that we always under any scheme must do what we enjoy, that is why for me there is no age, what we must have To have fun in a casino is money , nothing more.

Gambling helps old people keep their brains busy, relax, and remain active. Staying without engaging in any activity like gambling can leave the old person lonely. Especially for those who gambled as young men. However, they must gamble at minimal time, due to sicknesses like arthritis, which may have been caused by their days of work. But, if a man is strong enough to keep up with the mental problems gambling can cause then it's not an issue to continue gambling without retiring. However, I'd say that at 70-80 years of age, humans are expected to rest from stressful activities. Gambling is stressful in the sense that he'd think of his money lost in gambling, he'd also have to make plans for his next gambling session. Factors required to stay relevant in gambling create stress to the gambler in that age bracket may not be able to maintain such troubles. And at that age he's also in need of managing his money.

Whether rich or poor, old age is a tough time, only a few people are sound and healthy at 80 years. Additionally, the sight blurs too, and online casinos wouldn't be recommended anymore to them. The same applies to offline casinos they won't be able to visit consistently to those places every day. Gamblers who are sound in their 50s and 60s are encouraged to continue gambling, provided they won't waste money meant for their retirement plan. Life after retirement in business is not simple and retirees are of the need to stay on funds. To many gambling won't be an option anymore, because of the risk of losing out. They wouldn't want to take the risk. Young people can easily correct their mistakes, but an aged gambler wouldn't have the luxury of doing other businesses to recover from his losses. Hence, while they gamble it shouldn't be a day-to-day activity to help them stay rolling financially in other lifestyles.

Cases like that happen from time to time but they are just outliers, however those cases have been used through history to ban gambling by older societies, but if we were to use that same kind of thinking then we will need to ban almost everything, like cars, money, medicines, telephones and almost all our technology as everything can be misused by people, but we do not do it because even if those technologies and businesses can cause harm to our society, the benefits they bring more than compensate for any harm they can cause.

Yes maybe it can, but what gambling can provide a consistent income for gamblers, is what you say true and have you ever proven it? on the other hand if gambling can provide a steady income then why are there still people who are willing to work hard just to earn money, why don't they just become gamblers? to be honest I don't understand what you mean but it is certainly ridiculous if people assume that they can get a steady income from gambling, it doesn't make sense and doesn't match the facts.

After all this is gambling which means there are losers and there are winners, do you think the bookie created the casino to give every gambler a free win? Absolutely not, it's a profitable business for them if a lot of gamblers lose, that's why there are more losers than winners and that's also the reason why they better quit as soon as possible and don't need to wait for retirement age. I would advise anyone to quit, whether it's for entertainment in old age or not but it's definitely an activity that can make your money go down the drain at any time and without you even realizing it, so prevention is better than cure.

Consistent income from gambling is only into those people who had been able to reach out that state that they've been able to make income or living with gambling games but of course this would really be only pertaining into those games like strategic ones but if we speak about into those luck based ones then we do know that it cant really be just that possible for you to be able to sustain yourself on playing and make yourself that profitable for long term. Speaking about retirement then gambling isnt a job that someone would really be needing to retire, we do know that we can really be able to stop anytime we do want and age wont really be an indication whether we should stop or not. It would really be that everything would be according if you would be able to afford
to play and spend up some funds.

When we are looking at the future effects of many of the things we are exposing to our surroundings, we could find out that they have a long time effect to our habitat causing different trait in gene and abnormalities in chromosomes development. Sometimes I do ask myself what we happen after we have enjoy the benefits and now the byproduct will not before a big problem in the society. We don't need to be relax because we need to keep looking for ways on how to convert the byproducts of many materials we have used into something that will be beneficial to us as humans.

I would like to agree with you in this point that anybody can run his gambling until he can't afford for to do this. I have already say the same thing many times. I don't think we have to make a number for the limitation to gamble. I think there is no is requirement for it the think is requirement for is do you ever the loses you can be face ?  Even If you are a 25 year old young man and gambling without being able to afford it and borrowing money from people then I think you should retire from gambling now.

The gambler should wait till he manages the money for the gambling games,he should not start the gambling with the loan.The age is doesn’t affect the gamblers,because until he had a vision and the money to play the gambling.The gambler can play the games with his money,if he had uses the experience gained till his old age.This may help him to make huge money from the gambling site,as we know the gambling win may help the gamblers with old age to live his life happily.The young gamblers doesn’t have money for the gambling means,he should take the break and wait for the complete money was arranged.He should not play the game by loan and it may leads to him more financial problems.

But can you explain how they can get consistent results or what means they use so that they can get consistent results in gambling? I need that reason to confirm that the statement of making money consistently is really real. The fact is that it is very difficult for anyone, especially someone who plays the role of a gambler, to be able to maintain their luck, I think maybe they will only be able to maintain their luck 2 to 3x usually and not in a row let alone exceed 10x, it's too difficult if you only rely on luck which is always unpredictable when it comes and difficult to maintain.

Another thing is that basically there are no rules governing anyone for when to stop gambling, the point is that if the activity does not give you problems it doesn't matter but on the contrary if you feel that after engaging in gambling you experience a lot of problems, especially in finances then the better thing to do is stop as soon as possible, I understand it's difficult but you can do it slowly and don't need to wait for retirement age.
