One day I saw an old man of seventy [70] years old in gambling center were we bet for soccer predictions gambling bet, and I interviewed the old man that his age that why is it gambling up this age, and many people who don't know me was like wondering why I interviewed the man and some said why I mine questioning the man that gambling is a game of personal interest.so what I to ask a gambler is that what age should someone who is a gambler supposed to reach before the person retire in gambling or is it advisable for someone to continue to gamble until death separate us with gambling.

As a gambler what do you think that should be the right time we suppose to leave gambling weather we are making profits or we are not making profits with gambling, because I know quite well that gambling whenever you are making profits you will wish to continue gambling unless that you run out of cash.

It is not bad to continue gambling until you die or until you are unable to have your brain functioning properly because of old age. An old man that still have fun while gambling should continue to have the fun if he is not wasting money on it, so far it is just little amount of money and having fun with it.

It's personal interest, strength, and the right knowledge that determine when one should stop. For example, if I am at the age of 80 and I can still strongly move around and think properly, I can still gamble if I want to. My grandad was still gambling even at the age of 60+ (although I can't remember accurately, but I know he was still gambling till he got to 70 years).

@OP, it depends on the interest of the gambler. He or she will decide when they want to stop gambling. Some old people did not stop gambling at self-will but maybe due to some external facts like illnesses (health issues) or their children discouraged them.

This will depend on the contentment of the gambler as we can see, even old people still into gambling and some consider this as their kill time since they don't have anything to do and most of them prefer to gamble more. Personally, I can't tell when I will stop to gamble since I'm just an occasional gambler and didn't have much expectation in gambling that's why I can stop gambling anytime, this is not a big deal for me.

that i can agree with. if you are gambling just to pass time and have some fun, then there's no retirement age in this activity. actually, this activity will make your mind active in thinking as you grow older. just don't go to the extent of borrowing from everyone around you. that i think, you need to contemplate in gambling if you have so many loans from anyone and you are in deep financial trouble.



that is actually the major reason why oldies are into this activity, a kill time for them because they have nothing to do anymore. so long they know their limits, i believe there's nothing wrong doing this activity for as long as they like.

There's no such thing about right time on quitting gambling as long you do make yourself that responsible and mindful about your finances.You can deal with it for the rest of your life
as long you dont forget on making yourself having that control when it comes to your finances and just simply make out some bets or gambling just for fun then i dont see any reason
for someone to completely stop nor get rid of it. Age wont matter on which you would really be that able to gamble as you do like and make bets as you do like.
It is really just that on how you would really be making yourself that just fine with gambling, if you are seeing that it is really that greatly affecting you in terms of finances
then this is where you should consider on stopping.

If I can still make use of my two legs, I can still see clearly with my eyes, and I have enough money to spend aside from what I'm using to keep a healthy life, what then will stop me from gambling? There is no age limit for when someone needs to stop gambling. If you know you are fit enough, then you are good to go, be it in the 70s or 80s. If you can still do it, then you can.
 
But as an advanced man, the level to which he should gamble should probably be limited, as he has other things that he should focus on at that age rather than spending that time in a traditional gambling shop.

It is still okay for old men and even women to gamble if their health still allows them to. If an old man who has health problem is still gambling then he is just putting himself at risk bringing that closer to himself but if an old man is gambling for fun and sees gambling as a form of relaxation then that is still good because at his age he needs a lot of relaxation so that he does not develop high blood pressure due to stress, tension and over thinking. Do not forget that gambling is also for fun, and at an old age, some old men are not even concerned with how to make more money, they just want to have fun.

For the shake of health and the disappointment of losing a game, especially on sports betting, where someone can predict multiple games and add them up in one slip, and at the end of the game, 1-2 games are the ones that will make you lose a game worth millions. I don't think someone of such age could be able to handle the shock that can affect his health. 
 
Unless it's part of the medical advice given to him as a means to have fun, as it has been one of his usual activities at his youthful age, I might be against it. Instead,  I will rather advise any one of such age to play draft in the community with their fellow elders and argue that it's less disappointing than what gambling losses bring most of the time.

I think there is no age limit for gambling, and as you said, as long as we have money then gambling can still be done.

For myself, I will end my gambling activities when I have many needs, such as my child's need to go to college or my wife's needs. I will not sacrifice my family's money to gamble, when the burden of my life increases, I will stop gambling activities and I think that is a strong reason for me to stop gambling.

I think old men and women are wiser than young people. There is nothing that they have not seen. They have learned a lot in life. A gambler that later become old and still in earth, such a gambler would have known the right way to follow. It should not be about chasing money for them, but for them to turn the boring time to something interesting. I will not expect old men to risk like that. The bad gambling news that I have all seen and read before are all about young people and not old people.

Gambling can not be a medical advice.

I know that quiting in gambling doesn't have measurements and it will be good and understanding that we gamble to the extent of gambling without knowing when we are going to retire or not, so gambling is all about personal decision but as a gambler we suppose to have a particular time to leave gambling because anything you are doing and you have done the thing for more than thirty years then you are not supposed to continue the thing again, gambling is not good at old age because nothing that you win gambling that you will utililize the funds at such age.

There's no age limit, 2 days ago I went into a land base casinos and I see some commotion, it turns out that an old lady might have fallen down. She has a walking stick by the way, but maybe due to her age, she could stumbled or something.

But the point is that even at that age, at that disability, she still continue to play and enjoy just like the rest of us. So as long as you can play, have the money and have someone in your side if you go to landbase casinos or have guide or even nurses to accompany you, then you can play till the rest of your natural life.

Some related threads:

• What according to you should be the age to retire from gambling ? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5472136.0)
• Will you gamble till old age or not (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5468937.0)

You can't guess at what age someone will retire from the gambling activities they usually do, many also stop gambling until they die, but many also retire from gambling at a very young age ^{(under 40 years)}, i think the reason is that people there are different types of retirement from gambling, some because their partner forbids them, because their financial condition worsens, because they become more familiar with religion, because they experience an illness and because they really intend to stop.  gambling will always have a strong attraction, it is even difficult for people to get away from gambling, it's all because of the money they can get when gambling, apart from that, don't ever think that gambling is one of the things that can give you fast money, many gambling addicts have thoughts like this about gambling.

When you've lived a pretty full life and you're already at the final years of your existence, you tend to do things you otherwise wouldn't have done if you still have time in the planet. Retirement oftentimes bring out the most deranged and reckless versions of ourselves simply because we've been living our lives precariously all these years and it's this page in our lives where we're expected to go a little all out. In that regard I think it's pretty common for people in the retired age bracket to actually be gambling more than they are supposed to, especially if they don't have any other running responsibilities like kids to feed or mortgages to pay. When you have that much money lying around and less expenses to stress yourself about the only thing you'll have in your mind is rest and relaxation, but you can't unwind as hard as you could when you're still younger cause your bones aren't as strong as then and you're also prone to getting diseases now that your immune system's fucked up. That's why old people resort to gambling instead. It's a way for them to still have fun and be able to spend the money that they want to spend without putting them into harm's way or whatever. And I think the more people get older the more they become more accepting of gambling.

At the end of the day this is just an inference on my end but based on what I have observed from parents and older relatives I can pretty much say with comparable certainty that this is how the way things go for older people.

One man food is another man poison so for that,  the age that may seems right for Master A may not be on for Mr B and that is the reason why I may not be able to give you a straight-up answer to the question but that has been said.

If one is gambling for fun,  then there may not be an age limit to gambling for such a person as long as he keeps up with the fun aspect and doesn't lose motivation.

But for those who are addicted or gambling for profits,  it is better to quite as soon as possible since we already know the result of such mindset and conditions.

But looking at many facts, many seniors over 50 years old do gambling smoothly and use their pension money.
In fact, they are too addicted to just gamble.

Usually those who still do gambling until old age because they are used to gambling when it is still easy and continues without the age limit.
But what will be a problem is their mental ability which will certainly decrease and the money used is pension money that should be used for their lives.

If you really can't leave gambling, there must be a gambling limit, a limit on how much gambling funds will be used.
Gambling is not good in old age, because there will be many risks.
It's better to rest and enjoy the rest of life with a good quality of life.

Based on my observation, typically senior citizens gamble most of the time since they do not have anything left to do.

For example, the grandparents of my girlfriend generally gamble at least 3-5 times a week. They typically play slots and bet relatively low amounts of money. Sometimes, they come home with a profit of around $40-$50 and they call it a day. But there were days where they would lose $60 and they will channel their hatred to everyone.


I think this really depends on your goal as a gambler.

When a person sees gambling as a form of profit, then retirement depends on whether they are satisfied with their winnings or not. This is potentially dangerous as this really depends on their judgement in their own perspective.

On the other hand, if a person sees gambling as a form of entertainment, there is typically a certain point where you get tired and bored of gambling. This is natural as there is a graph in economics that can explain this further.

No specific age is required to quite gambling. If you are okay with the activity, that you are not becoming a burden to your family (assuming that you are just recieving your pension and that is the money you are using at age 70) then I think it will just be fine. The age when we should stop gambling is when we are being toxic about it and when we are getting addicted to it; borrowing money and being in huge debt, selling properties, not having enough sleep and appetite due to losses and stress, and the likes. That is the only time where you should know stopping will help you no matter how old or young you are.

For sure we are all aware of this; older people has more time engaging to activities given that by that time they are mostly not spending time working so what they should do to ease their boredom? We cannot order them to play Basketball and the likes if they are not into it (kidding aside). Gambling is just one of the activities which is entertaining as we all know given that we are here still at this age.Some people retire from gambling at age of 40 or as early as 25 and there's nothing wrong with it. What's bad is not knowing to yourself when to stop.

I don't think there will be any age constraints if that individual is still capable of being 16+ n 18+ to be competent and responsible for life. I find the case that the OP mentioned to be quite normal because the old men near the area where I live still have the habit of playing lottery tickets. We cannot impose opinions on anyone about how they should live, as long as it is within a framework suitable to the law as well as life circumstances, so that they are responsible for their actions.

True freedom in every decision, my grandfather (passed away) was also the owner of a gambling group and his children never forced him to stop, as long as everyone felt comfortable. I still remember the days when I was a child and was taken to breakfast with the money my grandfather had won from bets. It's not a story about earning extra income, but it brings joyful experiences in life which we don't always have the opportunity to enjoy again.

I had personally think the old person whom you had met was the experienced gambler with huge money in their bank balance.In practical the gambling centre never allow the people without the money,the old age gambler will back with their sons for the money recovery after the loss.Their sons will ask the gambling owner,his father come to gambling site without the knowledge of themselves.The son also claimed the old person had bring the school fee of their grandson.So this was the reason for the gambling centre will not allow the old people in the gambling game.And most importantly the casino which was based on the knowledge,So the possibility is soccer prediction.

Gambling requires the person to be conscious of his acts in order to be practiced. While the gambler remains conscious, he will be able to continue gambling, despite an eventual advanced age. Personally, I think people on their elderly days are the ones who should enjoy gambling at the most, since they have already worked their entire lives to build their patrimony and source of income. Naturally, they have just to enjoy everything they conquered along the decades, so money shouldn't be a concern for them in the same proportion it is for a young adult who is starting his professional career just now, besides carrying all the burden of composing a family, feeding his children, buying a house, a car and so on.

When I was a child, I thought gambling was supposed to be practiced only by elders, because they were the people I saw gambling more frequently, what seems to be exactly the opposite we see nowadays, with so many young people interested in gambling. That must be due to the large spread of gambling through online vehicles in global scale.

I think the reason why you find many young people gambling nowadays is because gambling have taken a new shape unlike before. And what I mean by this is, there have been a whole lots of transformation in the system of gambling these days where people are creating more gambling games today, more like expanding the scope of gambling to virtually all the games you can think of.

I think before, gambling was mostly found between middle-aged and old-aged games like ludo, chess amongst others, now you can gamble on 3D games, football games, hockey, basketball games and virtually all other games you can think of. Because of this, it has made gambling more lucrative and multifaceted. When that happens, you should ordinarily expect the turnout amongst the younger ones since it is their demographics that has been covered now.

I think the case it's simply like that.

You cant really tell because there might be those old gamblers which you might be able to see or met up on a gambling place which they had just recently dealing up with gambling and not really that doing for long time. This is case to case basis imho. Quitting gambling doesnt really need any time on which you should only quit on the time that you are already that spending so much
but just as said that everything is still in moderation or control then it would really be just that fine. Its our money to be used not theirs on which it is really just that right that you
would really be that dealing on things on which you do seem that it would interest you but of course you should be wary about the risks involved and not really just that blindly make bets without
knowing those things.

Until today, I haven't thought about when, and how old I have stopped gambling because I am still interested, and enthusiastic about this. Maybe that guy considered gambling as a hobby like me, so he does not consider it as a job that has time to retire. Gambling makes us fun if fits in the situation. I believe that guy is just looking for fun, not the money as many people did, so if he loses the money, it doesn't really affect with his needs, and it still can live as usual. So with this situation, the age certainly doesn't affect anything, because whatever the age, the fun is always be sought.

The elderly individual is free from his job and has the benefits. Gambling is not a job, and he is simply playing around with his cash and having fun.

Retiring from gambling did not likewise strike a chord in my head until reading this topic. I will stop when I am excessively old and far from a casino. Wagering in sports would not stop because I am having a great time watching my most loved matches. God willing, we will have a great financial standing when entering the elderly stage and we continue to wager a small part of our benefits and have fun.

Imo, The idea that there's a fixed limit for almost everything is often a hoax. The only age restriction is on the lower band. That is, the minimum age to start gambling. After that, the age to call it quit is largely dependent on the individual itself and whether or not they want to continue taking risks like that rather enjoying whatever time they'd still have in life.

Personally, I'd like to put an end to gambling before I reach such an age so I can dedicate more time to being in touch with close friends and family.

I have limit on the time and money that will be used in gambling and when the right time is when everything has reached the limit that I have.
If the time comes but the money in the balance is still in my possession, then I still leave gambling and use the remaining balance to gamble coming day.
Likewise, when I limit my money, say $30 and before my time, that amount of money is gone, I will still stop and think that maybe I should have stopped sooner.
This is the way and also the right time when to leave gambling, I believe everyone has their own targets and goals in gambling and they know when to stop even though some gamblers will actually stop after series of losses that occur.
However, limits are still very important thing to do and don't let us stop gambling just after making mistake, such as when we have deposited more money several times at the same time and it has been used up with nothing left.

Moreover, whether it is loss or win, the results that can be obtained will still have an addictive impact on gamblers, many experience various losses but they still continue to gamble.
Therefore, boundaries and management of money and time are very important.

Where I live, there are also many retirees with an average age of over 60 years, they still like to gamble, but they just entertain themselves and try their luck.
I know this is not the right thing, but because they do it with the aim of getting entertainment and it is still normal because they don't bet every day, the people around them just let it go.

Gambling is not a professional job so there is absolute no need to put limit to age retirement. Gambling is something personal of free will, a person choose to gamble not being forced or under the influence of anyone which he must be submissive to in regards to Employer and Employee.
I think the old people are the ones who are suppose to do gamble cos by then they are retired and just trying to live their lives but the table has turned where as young people now pioneer the affairs of gambling.

because there are parents who are old enough to still gamble, you can see that gambling has no age limit. except for the minimum age regulations that can start betting at official casinos.
If you have been gambling for a very long time, then you will continue to do it even though it is with less gambling intensity. No matter how old you are, if you are still able and have money to gamble, the casino will not stop you.

There will be no definite measure at what age you will stop. But when you feel that your finances no longer allow you to bet, then stop for the good of your old age.

Gambling is more of an activity that lives with us for long period and if we continue doing it at old age, that wouldn't sound weird. The only difference in the world today is that young gamblers only worry about themselves being the type of people eligible to gamble. It's made mainly for everyone in the world, except the younger people. Hence, the appropriate age to stop gambling can't be determined, provided the gambler is still strong health wise. Elderly people wants to enjoy their old age, and shouldn't be questioned about the things they do, wonder why nobody asks them questions regarding their drinking habit. Which is almost similar to the gambling habit. People have activities or duties that interests them, and those practice isn't meant to be removed from their life, else they'll not be happy. I recommend aged people to stay active and participate in lots of activities as possible. Because a boring life shouldn't be a part of anybody's life. The brain needs to stay working and active.

If that's the only thing that makes them happy even in their last breathe, then let them doing it. As long as they are able to gamble and they have a money for it, Maybe it's better for them to have something to occupy themselves with, because adults often get noticed a lot, so it's better for them to have something to occupy their time, to avoid thinking about something.
that might help to reduce their feelings of sadness or loneliness but sometimes even though it helps a lot in their lives, don't forget the things that should be avoided so as not to lead to any incident.

Yes gambler related with betting gamblers. There are may types of gambling in gamble. There are everyone not same in gambling. That's the reason many gamblers play different types of games because there is lot of games in it sports betting, poker etc and many gamblers connect with others gambler's and they know each other's. That's the reason they conect with other types of gamble's. That's the reason we can say that other gamblers can related with other gamblers.

It's important to recognize when it's time to stop or retire from gambling. If your gambling has started to harm your relationships with your loved ones or if your losses are affecting your ability to meet your basic needs, it's time to take action. If you realize that you are no longer able to gamble responsibly, it's time to stop. It's better to address the issue before it has a negative impact on your life. Once certain damages like broken marriages or lost trust in your family occur, it's difficult to repair them simply by quitting gambling.

as far I know, since I first started gambling until today, I have never known that gambling has a maximum age limit for continuing to gamble. this means that anyone who is 18+ will definitely be permitted and have the right to gamble whenever they want because it comes back to a person's ability, even if they are old enough but still physically healthy and have the ability to gamble, it certainly won't create any problems because usually someone older gamblers are confused about spending their old age and usually have fun enjoying their old age in various ways and one of them is gambling.
because gambling is considered entertainment so it is not surprising that there are gamblers who are very old but still bet in casinos and as long as they have money that can be used for gambling everything will be fine.

like I have a neighbor who is old enough to have several successful businesses and he still gambles just to spend his old age having fun because in his youth he spent his time building his business and now he is old it is time to enjoy the results by gambling.

In conclusion, there is no age limit to continue gambling as long as you have money and it doesn't harm your health, of course everything will be fine and you can see from other threads related to the age limit for a gambler.

Well, it is said that man only becomes old by his thoughts and not by age, therefore this old man would be very energetic to gamble at the age 70. Usually at this age the people are too much lazy to do go things like gambling and gambling is thought as an activity for the youth and younger generation.


Well, there is no hard and fast rule of when should one can leave gambling. I guess the money is more important factor than the age to join or leave gambling. If you have money, you can gamble at whatever age you like and since online gambling can be done by sitting at home, this gives more chances and opportunities for the gambler to gamble at old age too.

I do not know what society will say and react once they they know that an old man is gambling and whether they would take it in a positive or negative manner but from gambling sites prospective, there is no upper age limit for gambling.

Exactly. We can't put an age limit on gambling or who has the right to play gambling because, as we notice, mostly old people tend to gamble as that is part of their hobbies, so I don't think there should be an age limit on who can do gambling. Gambling is built for the sole purpose of fun and entertainment, so I don't think that it should be limited to old age; maybe at a young age, they should not be doing gambling as it may influence them to gamble more and possibly become addicted.
I've known for a lot of years that in their free time they like to play gambling games such as card games as their past time, and it should be viewed as their fast time only. Maybe they will still gamble with money, but as long as they are not overboard with their expenses, then it's fine.

I think it depends on each person/gambler's choice, although in my personal view gambling in old age is a bad thing and especially if you are still chasing winnings from gambling, of course it is not an ethical thing in my opinion.

I myself have not yet decided exactly when I should stop gambling, but I hope to stop gambling at the latest before I reach the age of 50, because after 50 years I just want to enjoy my retirement happily with my family, including looking for entertainment with my grandchildren and My child will not think about gambling or other things and will focus more on family.

Some people decide to stop gambling when they go older or have enough money. Others may keep gambling as long as they can do it in a safe way that doesnt hurt themselves or others. It is important to think about our own gambling habits and see if it still makes us happy entertained or has any other good results.
When it come to when someone should stop gambling it really depends on the personal decision how a person think about gambling and their situation. It is important to be careful with gambling because it can be addictive and can be create problems. So it is a good idea to set limits and be cautious.

The man you interviewed is a kind and cool-headed man. Some people might not take this question lightly because it sounds embarrassing. And you didn't even speak with him privately that was why other gamblers noticed the conversation. The ideal thing to do if you want to get such information is to speak with the individual privately.

Gambling only has age limits for the underaged. There are no restrictions for adults, which means one can gamble for eternity. As much as the person still has the physical and mental capacity to place bets, there are no restrictions. I even think that retirees should gamble more because they are bored and have less responsibility. The Retirement period could be boring, therefore gambling could be part of the entertainment activities of these retirees. At this stage, these old people don't have dependants, so they might have more funds to gamble.

Everyone has a different answer because they have their own thoughts on when to stop gambling, but the sooner you stop, the better, especially if you are too deep in gambling where it is difficult to take a break because you are always filled with the desire to gamble at any time, but as long as you can with It's good to control gambling, you can stop when you have to stop so that it doesn't interfere with other activities such as work or whatever and also doesn't interfere with your finances, so it's not a problem to continue doing it, and regarding the case you raise, it's very possible that the person has been gambling for a long time, not when he was already His retirement and gambling are carried out very responsibly, therefore he can still continue to gamble even though he has retired and his income is of course limited only from pension funds.

Human nature in general is not easily satisfied with what he has achieved, he will continue to search until he feels satisfied. And that's what gamblers usually feel, usually they will continue playing until they have enough. But each person's "enough" is different, some people feel enough to gamble when they are 40, 50, 60 years old or more, when they have responsibilities that must be fulfilled or they feel bored with their gambling, or for other reasons. So when you ask when is the right time for gamblers to retire, perhaps the answer for each gambler is different, depending on their condition.

They're just surprised that someone asked randomly that old man and it's not a problem at all but based on their reactions, it's just like "mind your own business" as they say lowkey.

It depends on your capacity and happiness. Yes, happiness because if that old man is finding his happiness through gambling at his age, no one can question that as all of us have our own reasons why we gamble be it, young or old.

Leave when you've made profits and come back anytime you wish as long as you're not asking for loans to gamble, simple.

In my opinion, I do not expect any 70-year-old man to be betting for the money again unless he merely derives his pleasure in betting. But if there is a man like that that still bets for the money, such is so unwise and might have no choice which pushes him into it. However, gambling is the wrong choice of avenue to get desperate money or money you rely upon for a living.

There is no way that man would not face the bad fate that people face in gambling. Can you imagine this at that age? That is so unwise. At a certain age, I believe that people should know what fits them and what doesn't fit them anymore, gambling in old age shouldn't happen. They may only play games among their friends and family, and could even bet with their little money for the fun of it within the circle as well. But still betting like a regular person, I don't see any honour and sanity in that at all.

Regardless, I hope the man bets with small amounts to lessen the negative effect.

Like any hobbies or passions out there, I don't think that there shouldn't be any age of retirement for that because if that's what you love to do and you like to do it without any problems then why not continue doing it right? There's no way that you can just give what you love to do unless it's hurting you. I think that's my take on this question, that money won't be going anywhere and that old man probably got the money to be able to sustain that habit and one thing about all of this is we really don't have a say as to how that old man or any old person do with their money because it's common sense to mind your own business.

Why should old generation retire from gambling if that one can make him happy? I guess there's no definite age for that question since it will matter to the person on what age he think to retire from this activity but if you believe that once a gambler always a gambler for sure you would provably understand that why they are still continue to gamble. I also believe that there children support them from what they are doing since they also think that make their parent happy so I guess if we are old and really fan with certain casino games or sports we would provably go in that situation. But question there if the old man is in good phase since even if he's enjoying hopefully his family still monitoring his activities so that he will not exceed playing or gamble to much and spend a lot of money for that hobby. But overall for me I'm fine with it an as long as those people can gamble despite of their age then all of it is fine.

There is no definite age for a gambler to retire because it depends on the wishes of each gambler. And like the example you found yourself, where he is old and shouldn't be gambling, but he still enjoys gambling and doesn't mind if he is old.

The time to leave gambling is the time when you really don't want to gamble anymore and that can be for many reasons. Some people have to become addicted to gambling first before they can leave gambling because their lives have become a mess. Some people leave gambling because they are married and don't want to get into trouble from gambling because there is a possibility that they will gamble until they lose their limit. And there are many other reasons why someone leaves gambling.

I have hardly seen any person who is passionate about something or a hobby, retire at an old age simply because they want to. If they did, it could be because of some issues that may be as a result of health hazards and immobility. Else, a true gambler gambles despite the age because they love it until death do them part.

Exactly! And it's not like gambling requires some special health conditions, people stand or sit around some table, can chat, and have fun playing some of their favorite games, if we talk about ground casinos. When it comes to online casinos, well we can be free to play however we want it, nobody can see us. :)

I don't plan to retire... I guess the worst scenario would be to run out of money for gambling, in that case, retirement is imminent! But I sincerely hope it won't come to that.

You didn't even mind to finish the story? That left us hanging. What did he answer to your question? I bet he is the right person to ask that.
I hope you can edit your opening post some time to complete it.
Anyway, there's already a thread made about questioning when the right age for retirement in gambling is. I just don't want to dig it but I bet it is deep in the gaming discussion.
I will answer here the same thing that I answered there. I don't think there's such a thing as retirement for gamblers especially those who like sports betting. It adds a lot of spice to the sports industry because it fuels the cheering factor for the team you are betting for or the fighter you made a bet with. I don't think old people should be stopped from doing this because who knows if that is the only entertainment they could get after their retirement from their jobs. 
Gambling is fun as long as we keep being responsible about it. We don't really need to make a huge bet to add entertainment for the sports that we are watching $5 - $10 will definitely make you cheer your lungs out for the team you are rooting for. It's better not getting used to large portions to keep the excitement part.

It's a hobby and when someone gets old, it's hardly to retire on it with something that you love to do. I still see people taking lanes on the lottery outlet just to bet with that.

Yeah, if that old man is really in loved with betting. Regardless of their age, they're going to bet no matter what happens to their lives and until how old their lives will be taken back.

* Gambling is not an means of job employment to the gamblers rather it is an alternate source one can make profit out of stakes supposing to be on a process of playing for fun. It is a personal insightment to decide what you chases while gambling if it either fun or making profits.

* Gambling has an age restriction system in the sense that an underaged persons are not permitted to play unless one is grown an adults age. And which, the gambler has the right to decide when to start and when to stop gambling.

There is no restriction to an elderly gambler to stop gambling nomatter the age rather, it is questionable to an outsider to wondering what a specific aged elderly one would still be doing in the gambling table.
It could be that gambling as a game could be a one activities in life that gives him joy or eases his anxieties or even an enjoyable activity that activates his mental calculative logical mindsets.

The fact is that no one employs a gambler in gambling and no one has the right to retire a gambler from gambling unless the said adult is found a mental misbehaviour that he could be out of his minds because there could be an extend of ages the elders looses responsibilities of their selves returning their mental faculties to that of the kids again. So at such a time, they only requires guidance to stay away from gambling and not as that of retirees but if yeah they are still in control of their thoughts of course they can stay gambling as much as wished.

Personally, I don't think there's an age frame for a gambler to reach before he can quit gambling. To some people they become too aged and weak to engage in certain things like gambling and other vices as early as in their late 50s while to some, they their body and mind are still very active even in their late 70s and that's I think that people's time of quitting engagements like gambling shouldn't be generalized.

So in essence, what I'm trying to say is that when an individual starts noticing the signs that comes with old age like weakling of the bones, anxiety of the mind and uncertain unrest of the soul it should be the best time to quit gambling in other not to allow the consequences of gambling to affect his old age and health.

Have you ever wondered how this old man is different from you except for being much older than you?  Or do you think that when a person reaches old age he becomes uninterested in those activities that he was interested in when he was young? Of course, older people have their own interests, which are limited by physical abilities, but in gambling can play people of absolutely any age and even the disabled, because to press a couple of buttons do not need to have any special skills. 

Yes, it's true that gambling is a game for personal gain. You don't need to know too much about it and ask questions, after all, whether to retire from gambling depends on each gambler and there are also those who die in a gambling place or while gambling. It's back to your own decision when. to stop gambling and retire from gambling, because not everyone wants to gamble forever.

I don't know if I've ever seen a thread like this or not, but it seems familiar, if I'm not mistaken, there is a thread entitled about retiring at the ideal age, but if you ask about that, I think it all depends on how we enjoy life, personally I would probably retire from gambling if you already have a grandchild because for me enjoying old age with a grandchild would be better than spending time gambling.

Let me ask you this question, what is the reason why people play gamble, if people gambles because of money what will a man of 70 years old use money for, because I know quite well that people of 70 years old their brain is not as function as the person of young age, for my own understanding I think its proper for we to understand gambling properly and I think its good for we to have a specific time frame for we to retire in gambling, what's retirement all about, I think its all about relaxation to go and enjoy the one you have acquired for your life time

There is an age before you can start to gamble, but there is no age when you should stop, as long as your mind is clear and you are capable of betting, you can retire as young as you want and as old as you can.

Gambling is a good recreation for old people they keep the mind clear and motivated the excitement they derive from gambling can help boost your neurons, as long as you can walk you know what you're betting you can play on physical casinos, and as long as you can see and you can type you can play online.
When you can still overcome obstacles of old age you are free to bet and it's your right to bet.

Old gamblers probably have been gambling for ages and they have nothing to do with their money that's probably why they are gambling. Maybe they can get a jackpot or something and then give it to his family or something. If you go to a land-based casino, you would pretty much see these types of people who are old and playing on slot machines.

That would be dependent on the person entirely if they want to continue gambling or not. I just hope they are not addicts that they will continue to get money just to gamble or something.

I don't think there is a limit of ages for gambling. As long as you have a sense of what you are doing and what gambling is. It depends on the individual interest in gambling I think.

On the other hand, since gambling is something addictive, I don't think addicted gamblers can maintain these types of Limitations if there is any.

Once you feel tired and get a realization that your life is not all about gambling that's the sign that you take a break for a while even though you are winning most of the time still you will experience getting tired, getting exhausted the things so why not take time to enjoy those earnings of course so you can have back the energy you've given that you made every time you play in a gambling casino. but that thinking is all about the person if you think gambling is part of your routine already and getting happy on it and satisfied with your game there's nothing wrong with stopping, as long as you know what you are doing.

Gambling is personal. Like "At what age should one stop eating chocolate?" It differs by person. Some lose interest in betting as they become older, but your passionate septuagenarian may still enjoy it. Individual decision and responsibility, not a set age limit.

I believe any hobby, including gambling, should provide more joy than stress. When financial or emotional losses surpass successes, it may be time to reassess. Quality of experience matters more than age or revenues. Gambling should be a treat, not a lifestyle. To all my fellow enthusiasts, may your bets be joyous, your losses light, and your retirement from the game be happy.

It depends on the gambler though. For mn at that age still gambling I think Is not actually doing it to hit some kind of huge jackpot I think his doing it for fun and to while away time. While most young gambler are doing it because they see gambling as a easy money scheme so that lead most of them to gambler carelessly. But still if someone at old age still gambling for cash I will advise to stop because of the tense attached and can also lead to high blood pressure due to fear of losing more funds.

Yeah and it's about having fun with gambling that is what makes it important. But as long as one is not disabled they can gamble as long as they wanted. Most of the time only wealthy people do this thing.

It's apparent that personal circumstances and psychological resiliency determine betting retirement, not age. So gambling is a mix of thrill and risk, not just a financial transaction but an emotional adventure. Retirement from gambling is not about reaching a set age, but when the thrill no longer warrants the danger or financial consequences. The choice is highly personal and varies greatly

In your story, the 70-year-old gambler reflects a fascinating facet of human nature: our drive for excitement and challenge at any age. Gambling often becomes part of one's identity, making retirement from it a philosophical matter. It's not about stopping at a certain age, but whether the activity fits their life objectives and values. Gambling should be avoided if it dominates life or causes financial ruin at any age. If it brings joy without harm, who are we to judge another's pastime timeline

Gambling is fun for everyone, for some it is fun because they enjoy the games and for many it is fun because they can earn money from it. So no one can quit gambling very easily.  Gamblers may quit only when they suffer greatly or when they are well aware of the harmful aspects of gambling. Especially when one crosses the age of 50 the family becomes more concerned and they retire from gambling to look after their adult children and society.  So I think the time to retire from gambling is when one crosses 50 years of his age

Retired people usually are living on their own especially in western countries and some are just living the moment in gambling and we cannot blame them from spending their time in gambling because that what makes them happy. There's no age limit in gambling, as long as you are still capable and you will not cause any harm to other gamblers and the casinos itself, you can still place your bet and have fun.

There is no such thing as retiring from gambling if he feels that gambling makes him happy, it is the same as retiring from gambling, he is also retiring from pleasure. I understand why today's parents still gamble, especially if there is a sport they like they will definitely bet on it, all just to enjoy the game and have fun.

Unlike those who are already addicted, they should abandon or stay away from gambling. But for those who want to have fun, they will continue to gamble until death do them part. I have a neighbor who is 65 years old and still likes to gamble but not often, only occasionally when he watches his favorite club's match, he bets with me. I also asked why he did this, he answered to get rid of loneliness and have fun.

 In fact, I believe that it relies on the person himself if he is strong and knowledgeable enough. To put it another way, if you can still clearly recall past games you played when you were younger, then you will never be able to retire from gambling. Some people continue to gamble well into their late 50s, and I believe this is because they want to reach their goals or because it may be their sole source of income, particularly when they are living alone. In order to avoid losing money when they gamble, they need to be able to balance; otherwise, they risk being starving while wandering on the road. As we grow older, we have different interests and habits that we can discover, this includes gambling and if this activity starts to have a negative impact on our mentality or our physical health then we should consider retiring from it.

One bets in retirement age he may play for fun or to pass the time. Many people feel lonely after retirement so it can be risky if they gamble and play for fun. There are many games not all games offer the opportunity to earn money while making more connections so it is better to avoid problems like losses later in gambling. It is not easy to feel tension in late age then losing can lead to physical problems. Retired should participate after knowing the downsides of gambling.

I have seen bettors betting on the lottery and he is already 80 years I asked why he still bets, and he says he treats it as a recreation and he's praying to win the jackpot, so he can provide something to his children and grandchildren when he is gone, whatever the reason gamblers are still betting, that's because they way to reach something or its their passion, gambling has no retirement age as long as you are not bedridden and you have a clear mind and you still have a go signal coming from your doctor you can still gamble.

Until you had enough, that's the point where you should retire from gambling, but until you can keep up whatever age you are betting it's your choice to keep on, we don't have a timeline for when it is time to retire from gambling, some gamblers are forced to retire because of circumstances when they have to because of finances or they have to save their relationships, or miserable gamblers who got cured from gambling and they have to stop so the addiction will not come back.
But gamblers who just want to keep on even if they do not have cash will find a way to go, they either take loans or sell their properties.

There's no time limit for a gambler, if you're not addicted or gambling isn't having any negatives effects on you ,you can continue to gamble to as old as you like. Gambling as entertainment shouldn't have any limit as entertainment is for all age, the only thing you can start considering as you get older is how your gambling time is affecting everyone else. Not all individuals will be comfortable with you spending so much time gambling while they're in your life.

You wife will need some of that time and your children will also need some time been spend together socializing. Your friends and others will want you to spend time with them therefore you can't be gambling the way you were gambling when you were younger. At a younger age, you had all the time to gamble as you want but as you get older, some other responsibilities will  need your time and money.

well... to be a "journalist" who interviews old people, the context was confusing :)

-/Don't ask anyone why they play,/- especially older people, it's being nosy, go do your thing, play, have fun and bet according to the experience you have, fish, recreational, semi-professional, professional.

Anyway, to not go too far I was playing Poker 24/7 in the first decade of the 21st century, in the second decade in the first years, I semi-retired, I played sporadically, then from *2014 to *2016 or *2017 , I retired 100%, literally, then I resumed the game in *2018, until now.

gambling is actually fine until old age, because gambling can sharpen the brains of old people to continue working and thinking logically. however, what needs to be paid attention to is their financial condition, because most of the old people's sources of income come from savings, children's gifts, or pension funds, perhaps the intensity needs to be reduced so that gambling will not interfere with their lives. or if it is no longer possible, someone can stop gambling when they are old enough, for example 70 or 80, because of money or health problems.

If the old man gambles just for fun, I think that's okay, and there is no limit to when someone should give up gambling because it depends on their desire to continue gambling when they are old or whether they should immediately stop their gambling activities. If they have reached a certain age. You've seen a seventy year old man betting on football sports betting. And the age at which to retire also depends on each person. Maybe the old man you meet can still place bets on sports betting, so he is still gambling on football predictions.

But maybe other people the same age as the old man no longer place bets on football betting or other gambling games. He may feel that he is old and it is not appropriate to place bets anymore. Well, that's normal for older people.

Legally in most countries where gambling is allowed, the only restrictions that's been placed on age is with what age allowed to start gambling beyond which there's no limit to when such persons are ment to stop gambling, invariably they can literally gamble till old age or whenever they choose to retire as such isn't regulated.

Because there's no regulations attached to such you see that most persons gamble and don't retire from gambling provided they still have the funds to sponsor their gambling habit, they only stop when they are sick or probably bankrupt. I personally recommend that one shouldn't be gaming at old age because at that age the chances that such person will make good picks and win reduces except they stay updated with current information as it regards such game especially with sports betting els they will be relaying on residual knowledge which will be totally luck dependent, only a few persons still have good rational reasoning capacity at old age hence it's advised the rest should retire.

The old man doesn't have huge money for the gambling,this was the reason for the gambler should have retirement age as like the normal job.But the gambler will play the game with own tactics,because at the old age.The gambler easily start to fight with others,So playing the responsible game at the old age is important.If tbe gambler face the loss in the game,he should take the break without any hesitation.Because only the break will change the gambler mindset to the loss again and again.The gambler should think what will be output,if he had loss the entire money in the gambling site.So the gambler get triggered to solve the gambling game and make the more winning using their own mindset in the particular game.

It depends because we cant really be able to tell if that man is a rich one or an average old person on which you would really be able to observe it out on how big he make those bets.
When it comes about age then there's no one would really be able to stop you on when you would be deciding on playing gambling. You are free as long you do have the money
that you could spend on and not all would really be having that money for them to sustain on playing for long time. This is why it would be always best that you should
really know on the things that you are doing because if you dont then you would really be ending up on having that hard time when it comes to finances.

I don't think a gambler can be stopped because of old age as long as he is a responsible gambler and it does not interfere with his finances, or his health and doesn't cause a rift in a family, when you treat gambling as a form of entertainment I don't think you can just let it go like that.
Gamblers who should retire are those who are badly losing money that they don't need to lose and who are neglecting their health and their family these are the people who need to stop gambling to save themselves.
But if you're good you don't need to do anything you can play as long as you can.

Like me, it's never the end of gambling if you're good at it and don't lose a lot of money.
As long as you enjoy gambling activities, even at an old age it will never be a big problem.
The only problem is that you have lost but continue to play to catch up with the defeat. what exists is not having fun with gambling but getting worse with bigger and bigger losses.

There's problem, we should look for means to amend our ways and also ensure we're doing quite well because I wouldn't sit here and watch our gamblers frustrated without having any good plans of earning and recovering their losses. Age is nothing but a number in the space, 70 years old can be gambling, but he won't be dissapointing and ready to give up everything because he's old and thinks like the aged numbers while the young are tasty for significant profits and they're ready to go any extreme length. Gamblers never too old to enter a position to place wagers on games, do they? The answer is NO because knowledge and experience will now be the main criteria that will continue to fuel them up in all essential rounds of gambling.

We don't know whether the old man didn't have a lot of money or whether he deliberately gambled on certain days. Surely, he still enjoys placing bets, so he still gambles on sports betting. It's okay as long as he can control himself in placing bets. But he must also be able to realize that he is old and should not place bets too often and do other things to enjoy life more. After all, he used to really like sports betting and has been doing it for a long time. But indeed, gambling can make people keep placing bets again, even just to enjoy their free time.

Gambling should be fun. If you gamble for fun, it can help you to avoid loniness at old age most especially when your family aren't around. But this can also be a problem for an addict especially at old age. It may cause anxiety and depression especially when they bet with huge capital. If this continues it can increase their BP. One can gamble at any age if one can control is gambling act.

I do not think there is a pre-established time for anyone to retire from gambling, only when one feels it is convenient to do so or when one believes oneself to be satisfied enough with the accumulated experiences gotten through gambling.
It should be obvious, because in the end, gambling is a hobby and any hobby is supposed to be retired from when a better way to spend our time is found.
Though, if someone is over 70 years old and continues to gamble one must wonder whether the sources of income of that gentleman are big enough for him to have enough of a gambling budget, it is not the same to gamble as a young adult than doing it as a elderly. Hopefully, he has some working children who give him some money to spare in his leisure time.

The old people who have enough money to finance their gambling habit have no reason to stop gambling. It's mainly a matter of decision. And asking aged men why they are into gambling is a biased behavior. Because some other people offer services in the market while others still participate in games like lawn tennis. I think before one bothers about one old person who gambles he should go ahead to question every old person he sees being busy with his time. Activities like gambling keeps their brain busy and helps them tackle boredom. We understand they need to rest and be attended to by loved ones. But life isn't good that way. It's preferably better for the person to exercise himself, take a walk and cover some distances. However, those who abuse gambling at old age should be cautioned and stopped by their loved ones or family. So that they won't undergo a difficult situation like lose of their retirement plans.

After all, why gamble to spend your old age with a difficult economy because you keep gambling after money, it won't be fun and it's true that gambling should be fun so that in old age you can enjoy life more than having to think about making money to keep gambling again, whereas if it's for fun we can playing gambling at certain times without the pressure of having to gamble all the time just because you are chasing something, let alone money.

Being an addict when you're old is sad, you should realize it before it's too late because old age is better spent doing something better and more positive, for example gathering with family or something like that, it's not necessary for all gamblers to retire, but of course everyone wants to die in good condition, why should choose to gamble until you die, especially because of addiction. This way does not really enjoy life and understand the true meaning of gambling.

But who are you OP? I mean, are you famous on that betting shop? Gambling is a game of personal interest but it does not mean that we won't have the rights to ask someone (a gambler) some questions, especially if we are a popular figure on this field. And it's only up to that gambler if they will gladly gave us some minutes to make an answer to our questions that are being asked to them.

It's not that it's advisable to gamble until death, but as long as you have no problems with it (financially, mentally, etc) then you are free to gamble until at what age you like. If we are winning, yes we can continue but we still can take a break.

When to stop or continue gambling cannot be determined by age. Sometimes elderly people still like to gamble because they think it will keep their brain functioning well and avoid dementia. I'm still not 100% sure whether gambling activities have a correlation with maintaining the brain function of elderly people in good condition in old age. They also don't have the ambition to win at gambling, but just want to have fun and fill the free time. Fortunately, nowadays you don't need to go to special gambling places to gamble, because online gambling now has so many platforms. I quite often find groups of elderly people gambling in small coffee shops in inland villages with their friends. Each other played gambling on their smartphones while joking and relaxing.

Honestly, I don't have the right answer regarding this question. the reason is, I don't know what will happen in the future. Gambling for me is now entertainment that can be done after work activities, during leisure time, or when I am bored. so, I don't have an answer to your question. likewise with other hobbies that I like besides gambling. nothing is certain, but there will be times when we can stop according to certain conditions and situations. even then, if it is accompanied by the intention or enjoys other hobbies besides gambling. my goal in gambling is not just about winning and making money, because there are other ways to do that without the risk of losing. what is certain is that we cannot predict what will happen in the future, even in old age.

Well, now we focus on the old man who is the main character in this thread, a man at the age of 70 who still likes gambling. in fact, this old man said that what he did was only for personal gain. it was clearly implied that he didn't want to talk at length about why he was still gambling. there are many factors behind it. we can assume freely according to what we think, but there is no definite answer because this old man did not say in detail why he still gambles. it could be that he really likes football. to arouse a high sense of enthusiasm for watching it, it involves betting in it. it could also not be a problem with money, after all, he is old enough to earn money, especially from gambling. so, there are many assumptions that we can conclude. but there was no right answer, because only this old man knew it. well, for me personally there is no truly right time. as long as we still enjoy gambling, as long as we will be involved in gambling. moreover, if it doesn't interfere with our financial problems. but usually there comes a time when someone will stop, at an undetermined time but at a fixed time without planning.

In my opinion, everyone's point of view is different, so there are people who gamble for fun, in the sense that when they lose, they probably don't mind the loss and don't think about being able to recover the losses that have occurred. This can also help them when they are lonely or bored because gambling has its own sensation. but if it's true, respond to it.
On the other hand, many of them respond wrongly to gambling until they become addicted to gambling and cannot accept their losses and it makes them annoyed so they want to continue gambling and reach the point of depression if they have run out of money because they always lose, and this will of course be detrimental to them. in the future and maybe it could carry over into their old age, in my opinion it's not wrong, because if they still have enough money to gamble, I mean they don't have problems with their finances, even though they are old but still like to gamble, that's not a problem, that's what happens. the problem is when they are old but still addicted to gambling and on the other hand they force themselves to continue gambling even though they have problems with their finances.

There are indeed some who consider gambling as a place to get pleasure without thinking about the defeat they have obtained.
But the fact is, very many expect to win and double their money from gambling. even most of them like it.

I suppose its nearly impossible for gambler to completely quit gambling and retire. Gambling is very fun experience and it directly gets your attention in ads even. (Casinos are fun places to visit for sure). Also, gambling takes nearly zero physical effort. You need to have good eyes, reactions and that's sort of enough. Some gambling methods are about good memory like cards, but I think that's possibly only game that old people would consider retiring after their memory becomes weaker.

You know the answer so well to your question. That man is gambling because he has the money and he wants to enjoy himself. He probably doesn't have a lot of things to do anyway that's why he's at the gambling house. I don't think it's okay to advise old people to not do something that will entertain them. Perhaps one can do that if they know that the old person is already not at their best mental acuity.

If I'm a rich, old guy just looking to kill time, I'd also look at gambling houses to socialize and have some fun.

In the ancient days, it's really difficult for you to see a young man playing gambling or getting involved in gambling related activities as it is mostly old men that plays gamble as at that time and if any young man wants to play gamble, the old men will chase him away. It is just in this modern days that youths are getting involved in gambling if not youths never showed interest in gambling and one of the things that made most of our youths get involved in gambling is as a result of lack of job opportunity because I don't see any reason why someone who is earning from a job will choose to play gambling that has a 50:50 chance of winning but however, there are still some person that earns salary but yet they still gamble.

Let me no digress from the question, there is actually no speculated age in which someone would quit gambling because gambling is a choice and quitting gambling is a choice as well but to me when one is getting out of age (becoming old), they should rather exonerate themselves from anything that will cause shock and anxiety in them and also things that will stress their life. Gambling shouldn't be played till old age as at that time what they need is rest and relaxation rather than getting involved in things that will compound their memory or cause uneasiness to their health.

That's interesting. Not all people keep the cognitive functions okay when they arrive to a certain age, and in some cases their habits should be controlled, especially in the case of gambling, because due to their bad head they could lose overnight all the wealth they accumulated during their life.

Apart from these cases, if they are lucid, I think that it is a escape route to an otherwise boring routine. My old father likes to play lotteries in the dream of winning the jackpot someday, and that hope keeps him entertained.

Most older people has nothing to lose in life  , they are just enjoying what they wanted to
explore like my Grandma and grandfa as they continued gambling in casino houses in their last days in life.
when I did asked them those days? what they answered is what should i lost grandson?
my days are ending and all of you(we her daughter and grand children) are busy in your own life so where
do we need to spend ours? waiting for our last breath in the bed or couch ?

Isn't it annoying that you interviewed and asked that man why he still gambled at his age?

It's out of our business anymore even if you don't have any bad intention of asking that. The old guy might just be enjoying his life to the fullest as maybe he's used to gambling during his prime days. There's no right age to stop gambling. As long as the gambler is a responsible person in gambling, they can continue regardless of their age, until their inner self shows no interest anymore in gambling or is no longer capable anymore to do gambling.

Not having anything to lose shouldn't make them gamble anyhow. What of if they later lose all their life savings to betting. Don't you think it will affect them. A gambler addict can't easily stop gambling at any stage of his/her life.

So you won't tell us the answer of the old guy after questioning him? And then ask us the same question, it would be much better if you will share his answers since  i guess not all of people here is in their 60s or even 70s just like the guy you asked.
As for your question, it's personal preference, at that age, people just wants entertainment, or i say testing their luck at that age. Oldies in my area do still gamble without age limit as long the guy can stand up, talk what his bet and thats ehat important, of course there's someone who assist to them.

There is nothing wrong with gambling at a later age in life. Gambling offers different kind of relief if one can handle it and for someone at the age of 60 and above that is into gambling is probably sone who has gambled for a long time and knows the pros and cons to it.
There is a fear of hypertension but, these guys just get amused at most of the results. What’s there to worry about after enjoying a long life.

I think there isn’t really an age limit for this activity or retirement as a whole. Having an age limit attached to it would flaw the system. One should only stop gambling if one happens to lose so much, isn’t catching the fun in it and when an individual has gone above reason. These could be pointers that tells you when to quit or give it a break.

Maybe just our of curiosity since people might be curious to their activity especially if they always hear bad stories about gambling. But if they could just realize that gambling is not all about losing and somehow it can make the old man brain to get exercise then for sure they would not touch or disturb their activities. For sure their family know already what they do but they let their old folks enjoy what they currently do since they know that's how they enjoy their boring times in a day.

As long as we can see them responsible of what they do an have fun everything they do is really fine since nothing more pay off especially if we see them happy on what they are doing.

Sometime gambling at old age could be a lot detrimental as compared to how It will be with a young person especially if such an old person have some health conditions but I'd the person isn't down with any condition and is mainly doing it for fun, it could be considered okay for such a person but outside that is not really healthy.

One of the effects it's definitely going to have on Old people especially those who are challenged health wise and are not gambling for fun or entertainment they may go down with worse health conditions when they finally lose their funds to gambling, they may aswell suffer anxiety or even get depressed basically it's just not healthy for leme say broke old people but for those who can afford it, they can get entertained from it and it will be considered okay.

The gambler who had their own interest in the gambling will play the game at their old ages also.The only important thing will be the ability to play the game using their money,he should have the money surplus to play the game.

Some gamblers stop the gambling after the 50 years.Because they hard yo spend money for their grandchildren and their expenses.The experienced old age gamblers can multiple their money using gambling,but their also some risk of gambling at the old ages with needed money.The gamblers who learned their tactics at the younger age can take risk at old ages.

At an old age gambling is more just like a pastime or hobby to them compared to the vast majority of gamblers in their early age where they consider gambling as a method to get rich by getting lucky quickly. Or just a source of thrill. Honestly, it doesn't matter at some point as long as you're having fun in the process and you don't damage your livelihood, even if you are young or old it's fine to gamble for a long time. Making profits in a sense is just the visible goal for the most part. At least that's what I say to myself to avoid falling addicted to it.

It’s only advisable to gamble as long as you can manage your expenses and losses when gambling, but if you are getting highly emotional whenever you’re in losses, we’ll that’s a sign to stop yourself from gambling anymore. Old aged people are at risk of heart attack, so most likely if you continue to engage in gambling and suffer from consistent losing, you might end up getting heart attack and that’s the worst thing to happen to an old gambler.

However, if you insist doing it for an entertainment, that’s fine if you are still able to control your urge. But if you think you can’t, then don’t bother to gamble at your old age, but just enjoy your life and spend quality time with your wife, kids and grandkids.

I was curious with the reason why you end up asking that question. Gambling has no boundaries. As long as the gambler is capable of doing gambling, they can do whatever they want in their life regardless of their age. There's no big deal if we see a 70 or 80-year-old person still gambling as long as they know what they're doing and use their own money. What are we supposed to expect from a 70-year-old? Just lying in their bed the whole day? If they can still do those activities they already used to do for a long, then just let them be like that.

You won't understand it from the gambler's perspective, especially for a person who hugs gambling as one of their usual activity regularly.

It should be underlined that there is an age limit for gamblers who cannot gamble,
namely minors and this is also in accordance with the rules and ToS of each gambling platform.

But for the maximum age limit gamblers never existed, the age of 70, 80 and so on can do gambling as they like.
Because some people are quite attached to gambling until the end of their lives because gambling is used as their entertainment to enjoy life.

Everyone does have a different point of view, and it will give a variety of responses about the fun of gambling.

If you bet just for fun, I don't think it's a problem even though most people aim to win in their bets. I think people who are addicted to gambling will never retire. You mentioned someone who retired because they ran out of cash. I don't think he retired. Because I'm sure he will return to gambling if he gets the cash. And I never thought there was such a thing as retiring to gamble. It just depends on your decision to continue gambling or stop. Or even stop and then return to gambling.

Just like we say gambling is for fun same things for this old man, maybe he just tired of doing nothin and he just craves that kind of rush to his his blood when he was abit hunger. Gambling is always fun when you actual don't have mind in doing it and this is part where plenty gamblers fall victim because the y don't know what they are doing. Even the old men do enjoy gambling because for some reason and aslo this saying old habits never die and also the reason when he head the money.

And stress. I am not old I really felt the stress toll of gambling at playing casino games a week ago. I mean, I didn't think that I could get angry like that because I felt like I was being robbed without any RTP coming.
I played Keno and lost a lot of my capital and I was so angry that I almost wanted to destroy my keyboard. Thankfully, after a long wait, it was given back to me although it was not enough to cover everything. It's true, that if we cannot manage our expenses anymore, we must stop. Because there's a chance that those expenses will keep on growing as we chase the losses which I am also guilty of and I think many gamblers do a lot.
For an old man to be doing this will not be good for his health. I suggest keeping the bets on either sports gambling or mild live casino games only because somehow on those games we could control it, unlike the nonstop games of slots and original games.
Stress means more health problems like constipation, headaches, or maybe even worse, it will be not good for an old man, especially those with a history of health problems that might be triggered by gambling irresponsibly.

Yes, older people definitely have their own thoughts about gambling in their old age. Of course the age limit for gambling is 18+ and there are no restrictions for people over 60 or 70 years old to gamble. It is his own choice and we should not interfere in his decision

But honestly, I would probably ask the same thing if I met someone who was too old but still gambling. Wouldn't it be better for them to spend time with their children and grandchildren at home? Enjoy his last years with his family and those closest to him. However, it is also possible that the elderly person does not have children or perhaps their children have abandoned them so they choose to gamble as entertainment.

Whatever his reason for gambling actually doesn't matter, because he used his own money and maybe that's how he enjoyed his life in his last years on earth.

let us do accept the fact that there are indeed old gamblers who are using this activity as their past time. it is one of the easy activities that they can do to have an active mind. now, it depends on them how they will use it to their advantage. should not go beyond their limits, so they won't have a headache in their later stage of their lives.

and if they do get hooked in gambling and owed a lot of debts, most of the time, it is the immediate family who can suffer such bad circumstance. well, that is for the gambler himself to think about. is he going to give a heart attack to his family or not?

Each person's choice to gamble in retirement depends on their own preferences, their funds, and the way they like to gamble. Maybe the person's age isn't the most important thing. People who bet ought to think about how much they spend, their health, and whether they like games or not.

People who responsibly play video games within their means and don't let it affect other parts of their lives might not be able to tell when to stop. Look at your situation and think about giving up games if it's making you stressed, losing money, or causing other issues.

Bet wisely when and how you bet if gaming gets in the way of your healthy, balanced life. There are also professionals who can help you make these choices.

Actually I have seen this kind of topics before. I also reply the same thing on those. The thing is a gambler don't need to retired if he can afford for playing gambling. No matter what is age. But I also think that in the older is the person will can't afford that much he afford before. So the actual is if he is capable and afford then he can gambling beyond on his limits.

It is young people that like to chase money while the old people are chasing heaven. Old people have seen many things in life and wiser enough to handle the situation better than young people. Gambling addiction are linked to adults that are young and not old people. The way a gambler that is old will handle gambler will be better than how young people will handle it.

This is likely when the old man was young and not when he is old. He would have know the effect of gambling. If he was able to survives it when he was young, he will be able to deal with gambling when he is old.

I will agree to this like I have in my previous post or posts. Old people are even wiser and have more experience than young people. They see it as entertainment and they are having fun.

Young individuals also chase heaven, it's the younger generation that are chasing heaven more than the old generations. We have more young individual and they're dominating everywhere both gambling and other things. Gambling addiction happens to both the old and the young and doesn't affect only one type of age group. There are individuals that are old yet they can't handle gambling addiction problems as some young individuals will, if you're not enlighten you can't handle addiction.

The young individuals is getting peer pressure into gambling to get money to meet up to his peer group but the older individuals are gambling so they can have money to survive as they didn't hustle well when their mates were hustling or they put their life savings into a wrong investment and now they're broke. If both are gambling for entertainment then that is fine since they won't get addicted but enjoy the game.

Am not sure if there are even time that truly gambling become a past time mate because from the very time it was invented people are  doing it to win over others so that is not a past time specially when it was having a Bet against each other so why do you say it is about pasting time mate .

And about the topic , retiring is not a gamblers  thing as My Uncle brings His gambling activities till the last breath , even before he gives his last days He even asked me to bring Him to casino just to have last fun.

I don't think that an old man of 70yrs will be gambling for profit, when he did that during his early days, he must have been used to gambling and sees it as a means of having fun and that is why he is still gambling, to keep his body and soul together, since he is limited to having fun.

Gambling is good at old age, as long as you are still with your senses. This is because gambling with help you exercise you brain and thinking a d remembering your old time days when you use to gamble. You should take note that gambling can also make someone live longer due to the fun in it, as long as you are not stressing yourself with it.

There's a popular saying which says "experience is the best teacher" ahd that's why I absolutely agree to the fact that older people who has been involved in gambling for a very long time in their life are the ones who does retire in gambling than the younger adults. Older gamblers have seen it all when it comes to gambling and they know the joy the comes with massive winnings as well as the pains that comes with great loss and that's why they're always emotionally stronger when it comes to gambling than the younger people.

Gamblers do retire from gambling and in most cases, it's the older gamblers who has spent many years in their gambling engagements.

Perhaps, it was an individual decision OP but I don't think we have to wait for the moment that we can no longer gamble before deciding to stop.
 I believe that oldies are into gambling just for fun so it was not hard for them to stop but for young people that can be a big challenge especially those who are already addicted.
 
As a casual gambler, I don't think it makes sense to gamble until 70 years old. We are old enough for that age and I don't think it was entertaining anymore.

In my opinion there is absolutely no age limit on gambling, meaning that regardless of your age you are free to gamble as long as you have the money to bet, and the other thing is that as long as you really don't get into a lot of trouble as a result of your gambling activities then obviously it's up to you if you really want to continue gambling until death separates you from gambling. After all, gambling is just a place to have fun when you have boring free time, there are some people who choose to fill their time with gambling and some choose to fill their free time for other things, but if this gambling activity has a bad impact on you, or means that after you get to know gambling you more often experience a lot of financial problems then obviously it's time for you to stay away from gambling because in my opinion it is no longer about fun but rather leads to a lot of pressure, especially if you are already dependent on gambling in the sense that you absolutely cannot spend the slightest time not gambling.

I never saw someone who retired from playing they only stopped when they died, that's the reality of people who are addicted to gambling and I remember those who were playing back then lightly are now hooked up and can't get away from this habit. The games and variety of choices are the reasons for them to stay despite their age and they have something like a mission which they want to prove to others that they can win no matter what happens in the future. Because of the variety of games that they can even bet low amounts, they cannot seem to find other productive hobbies that will improve their lives and daily activities.

What do you think will entertain you when you're old? most of them quit to drink alcohol, but some of them are still having sex or smoking, even though those two activities seems not a good thing, but it's what it's. Since gambling didn't harm your body, there's a chance some people will still gamble when they're old.

Old people have a lot free time that they don't know what they should spend for what.

The game can be a fun entertainment option for adults of any age. Many people like to go to horse races, others like to make rallies with colleagues at the office or dream about big lottery prizes. For seniors especially, a bingo hall or casino can be a great opportunity for socialization and a nice break from the routine of life.

The vast majority of older people play responsibly, but the hobby can certainly turn into a problem at any age. By the most basic definition, people with a gambling problem are those who risk more than they can afford to lose, and in the case of the elderly they often realize they are in trouble only when they start throwing away money for rent or everyday essential medicines. a-day.

I think there is no right age to stop playing, because an older person always needs to be "monitored" by someone responsible for them.

Its true, right? Have fun at any age, and if gambling is your thing, great! I support personal freedom, especially in leisure time.

Its important to recognise the fine line between enjoyment and danger. I've seen hobbies become obsessions as a human behaviourist. Walking a tightrope is thrilling yet dangerous. You're right regarding finances. Gambling becomes unfun when it becomes a habit. The load is typically hidden until its too late.

This requires self-awareness and control. Recognising when a pastime harms you is admirable. As in any other area of life, gaming habits must be monitored. After all, retirement should be about fun and not stress and dependence.

If an old man still uses gambling in between their activities well and doesn't chase wins and only uses gambling to reminisce about their past, that's okay, and there won't be any serious problems for them. The thing to worry about is if they resort to excessive gambling because we don't know how well they can still control themselves. Maybe they can fall into gambling without anyone being able to help them and go home in a state of loss, which can trigger them to be angry or sad. It is better for an elderly person not to visit a casino without someone accompanying him because that could trigger him to gamble excessively.

Let's face it, when one gets to a certain age they have very few activities they can engage themselves in..

and for someone at that age to be gambling its either they are doing it for pure fun and entertainment

or trying to help the family by hoping to win big and leave them with something they can inherit from him.

Tbh retiring from gambling depends on one's financial standing, mental health standing or simply if you still have the time to gamble depending on how one's schedule is..or all differs from one person to the other but I guess it's one way to keep yourself active and entertained...we just cant get one answer fits all!


Its easy to say stop gambling and what not, but do you also consider that these people get bored especially if they are sitting all day at home...honestly this isn't an easy discussion..otherwise if they can farm, engineer stuff at home then I don't expect them to be gambling as they are kept preoccupied with other activities.

As long as you are gambling responsibly without addiction attached, there no fixed age for a gambler to retire, sure profit is not guaranteed in gambling but if people keep gambling and continue to win they will never quit or retire but what keeps a gambler going is the believe that he will win someday no matter the loss incurred so far, with what I know, a gambler does consider quitting as an option rather he sees every move as an opportunity to win, skipping a day without gambling can never come to play in a gamblers mind because of his expectation, in conclusion as I said earlier there is no age for retirement in gambling.

Gaming - from horse racing to bingo - brings delight and community, especially to seniors. It allows socialisation and respite from the routine. Moderation is necessary with any good thing. Most seniors play within their bounds, which is fantastic. When the stakes go beyond a friendly game, we must support, not control

Monitoring is tough. Yes, financial security is important, but don't patronise. Wisdom doesn't retire, right? A senior with decades of experience can frequently best assess their activities. It's about educating and supporting them to make decisions. We want to keep the pleasure safe, not halt it

Very good idea to prevent addiction and stop gambling. The point is to keep ourselves busy until we really don't have time to touch the world of gambling again. It may be very difficult to refuse the brain's invitation to stop gambling because it has become a habit. However, over time you will definitely be able to leave the world of gambling completely and return to the real world and get a better income than just spending money on gambling.

Those who are of age like that kind of age that Op is referring and they are still not religious, they don't have a business retiring, they keep gambling as far as their health can carry them. Gambling doesn't really have retirement age just like you are doing your personal business or investment you keep going as far as the business remains active. Those who gamble don't look at the time of retirement, it is not a government job that you are restricted to work above certain age.

But some people change as they old and they begin to become religious so if they decide to leave the stage of gambling, that will not be regarded as retirement but a decision to stop gambling.

Yes, if it is for fun and reminiscing about the past then it is not serious problem but if you gamble to get other results such as certain amount of money then this is clearly mistake that must be avoided.
Moreover, I sure that those who are elderly will be more sentimental about outcomes that may be detrimental and of course self-control will never be able to be maintained when they carry out any gambling activity, it will be much more difficult to be able to solve problems like this.
What is quite difficult is that older people will feel that they have more experience and knowledge so that when there is suggestion they think that what they are doing is the right thing.
An elderly person should be able to spend their time better with their family and focus more on what can make them feel the warmth of love with their children and grandchildren.

It is true that they may gamble to find some way of entertainment but it should be within their limits. There are many elderly people who cannot easily bring everything under control then it becomes a serious problem for them. Old and young no matter what the age if it turns into addiction life will dawn in misery. That's why I think it's better to stop gambling during retirement. Apart from gambling there are many forms of entertainment to be found. An elderly person is physically and mentally very weak.

You sounds like gambling is useless because it only make someone to wasting their money.

There's no difference with take a vacation, shopping, hangout, visit zoo park, watching cinema, subscribing a product/service etc. Then your friends or someone else will say, don't too stingy, you need to reward yourself from every pennies you earn.

In my belief, there's no one in this world is busy everyday and don't have any free time.

This is not something as professional as where a player could retire. People either gamble for or just for entertainment. When people retire from work, I guess they will have more time to spend with their family and gamble more than before if they are wealthy enough. Of course only if they take it as entertainment only. But there is an opposite side as well. If someone is not wealthy enough, people usually stay away from gambling because they know that the house always wins. They won't win always against the house. So, It depends on the person and his situation.

Am not a hard core gambler but I am certainly about one thing when it comes to gambling and gamblers which is they don't actually retire although they have something like resting period and that's when the loses keep coming then the gambler might decide to pause because even when the person hits a massive jackpot he might still likely continue gambling and maybe this time the stake might even be higher than the previous times because now the funds is available and if he lacks control it might even make him gamble more.

I see young gamblers as very impatient. They want to secure the bag by all means including gambling so they lead an unhealthy and irresponsible gambling lifestyle. They do what I call, impulse gambling. Once the thought crosses their minds to gamble, they go ahead to do it. When they see their friends post or talk about gambling, it becomes the trigger for them to gamble. They think they can double their monies through gambling and keep the profit, so they go ahead to gamble. For the older adults who are more experienced and have seen it all, they have the money but not the time because they have sent the whole of their youth working hard to make money and now they see gambling as a way to spend the money and have a good time.

Knowing the reason or purpose will make you consistent; tired of losing, have no more money to gamble, not being able to function on aa daily basis due to losses, and whatever reason that is. What's important is to have any.  If it is just having another activity to occupy your time then that would be easy however consistency won't be there. A reason adds weigh to the activity on why you are having a hard time to quit doing so. With gambling; the drive to earn money is the bottomline why many gamblers are hooked. For example are sports fanatics engaging to sports betting. They could just watch the game if it is only for their passion but why do they need to gamble? Most likely because of the possible profit in every winning bet they wil be having. Therefore if you aim to stop doing an activity, it should not only be the activity which should be replaced but also the motive, which should also be compensated. Personally, I think I would only be able to quit gambling once my loss became too huge that will put me in debt.
If you no longer have money to bet then you will be forced to stop and realize how bad things went. Well in some instances other gambling addicts are making their way to be able to bet but that I guess is another problem to resolve and another side to discuss. I know some people who retired from gambling due to circumstances and responsibilities; everything has a purpose and alternative task they will make use with their time.

As far as I know gamblers never retire, those who bet constantly and win most of the time are the ones who are seen in all subsequent cases and have fewer losses. They never like to retire, they want to gambling in new ways, to gain information and new experiences. Betting is a niche for many and many consider it a way or means to lead a professional life. So I think the important thing about betting is that no one ever retires, everyone wants to win and be successful till the end of their life.

Alot of old men, and when I say old men, I mean really old like in their 80s and above do and still gambler here in my area, all that matters is that, the men in question are still fit and strong enough to walk around on their own without any aid, and can see properly too, and still have an active and working brain in order to the able to count and calculate properly.

Once all of this things I mentioned are in still intact in the life of a man, there is actually no retirement age when it comes to gambling, alot of old men, most especially in the rural areas gamble till they die, and the beautiful thing here is that, most of this old men do not gamble for the sake of making money, to them, gambling is a way for them to have fun and as well, meet, socialize and interact with the younger generation, just as it was with that old man op wrote about, he meet and had a interactive conversation with op, that is sometimes majorly their goal, and this is why if we notice, most old men who gamble don't gamble on online casinos, but would prefer to visits a physical casino directly because that is where they can meet and interact with real people.

As a gambler what do you think that should be the right time we suppose to leave gambling weather we are making profits or we are not making profits with gambling, because I know quite well that gambling whenever you are making profits you will wish to continue gambling unless that you run out of cash.

Gambling can be a personal choice or decision, and it's important to consider various factors, including age and financial stability. some people may choose to retire at a certain age, while others might continue as long as they still enjoy gambling and can afford it responsibly. It's very important to have a balance and not let gambling regularly impact other areas of life. Gambling at old age is not advisable because it can cause health risks.

That is something that depends on how the people see the game. Personally, what I can say about this is that the game, when one is winning, should not count the profits, that is, I am winning, I am still winning, but that is , as long as the bets are not made all in , or they are in a Period of doing things, with very big bets, because in the event that things are done, you will lose Quite a bit of money because it is harder to do it Personally, I have always said that when you are Winning and have a winning streak, it is very difficult to end a winning streak because we all want to Continue Winning, if we cut it, we can do it, but always and whenever We are not sure that the amounts that are handled are different, but I can say that when we are like this they can be Established, any type of event that is like this cannot be cut.

I have been in streaks of game systems where I have been winning, so these types of things are why we must do many things, for example when we are making any bet, personally what I do is the largest amount to withdraw and Second, what I do is take only a small part to bet, so I can only say that it is my best strategy, because I don't want to be left with nothing later, and that has happened to me and the feeling is not good, so stop To avoid those bad times, I consider that the best thing to do is always to be clear about our things with our money.

Without money we are basically nothing, for this reason every time we are in a casino we must maintain a plan, both for loss and profits, and the plan for profits is essential for me to continue walking but not with so much money, because It is very easy to lose it, and difficult, almost impossible to recover it, I would need to make more deposits and this would come out because it would comply with my regulations. All this is what should be avoided.

Gambling doesnt know age and gender in the end as long as there is no awareness in oneself even though one is old, one will definitely still insist on gambling because after all even though this is not very ethical to do, but again gambling is one's own will so we cannot force others even though they are old not to gamble because indeed gamblers in the end all have the same nature, namely stubbornness (including me) :D

Even if we want to deny it, the reality is that we cannot deny it because it will be very difficult for us to be forced to stop gambling as well as them.
Not that I'm in favor of older people gambling because they should be relaxing in their later years but it goes back to the original context where gambling knows no gender and age.

Dont let yourself comes into a point that you do eventually stop on the time that you dont already have the money for you to play on which this basically means that you had entirely messed up
your gambling activity on which it did really ends up miserably. This is why it would really be always that best that you should really know on when to quit and call it a day or when
you are really that making profits on which it would really be just that right that you should really always having that kind of being responsible and control towards yourself
if you wont really be having such behavior then you would really be ending up on messing yourself into this gambling field. Dont tend to chase up losses and dont tend up to chase
winnings because this is where people do wreck themselves.

This is quite the right reason, they usually just want to fill their free time because they no longer have the closest people or their children are no longer with them.
I also find many elderly people into gambling just as entertainment and don't give much importance to profit.

Now many mobile gambling games can be played without money or just use daily rewards to play, but that's more than enough.

I have said this severally the gambling does not have a particular time for a particular did someone can gamble so therefore we should not think of having any time for someone to gamble totally So I believe that the normal time forms supposed to gamble is when you feel like programming because it is with lock it does not deal with your prediction and the higher manage to do whatever thing I'm gambling

Retire, stop or take profits. That's all you have to do when you're at the right time of doing it. Stop when everything is going downhill with your day as you gamble. Stop when you want to take profits and you don't want the casino to take back what you've taken from them as your profits. And retire, when you say that you have no place anymore in gambling then that's all you need to do, to stop completely.

While we're all having these plans of taking some profits when it's possible and when we does. You're forgetting that moment when you're at high and making some money already. The emotion is stopping you to take profits because of your pride that you'll be making more later on but the opposite is what comes next to you. So, for if there will be opportunities that will make you stop and you don't know what to do. It's just best to follow your gut of stopping and forget about regretting with the chances that you might have because they're likely just going to lose you more money if you have never stopped.

A gambler is always a gambler even his children happens to be with him at home his grandchildren he would still go gamble. Sometimes I do think that gamble is like something that is being stored in a man's system to always be active at all times and when it's activated you would all things to make sure your have gambled as your body tells you. Typical example are those people who always to go the gym room to do exercise, if they are being used to body build it's very hard for them to leave it gyming because they would always wants to maintain physically structured bodies so it's to someone who gambles. Note this is my other side of view about those aged people out there.

In my opinion, it is each individual's right to determine how long they will stop gambling, no matter how old you are, if you still have money and your hobby is gambling, you will still do it, especially if you have friends in physical casino so you will spend more time spend time with your friends like when you were young, but when one day your old friends have started to pursue their own interests in life and want to rest at home, enjoying their old age at home and rarely see each other, maybe you will decide to retire from gambling because you have there is no excitement in your life anymore.

Make a profit or not, in my opinion, when they are old they don't think about profits anymore because maybe what they want is just entertainment, as long as they are fine and it doesn't affects their health then it's okay, I myself have time in my retirement to gamble but I haven't yet sure, but what is clear is that I have planing it for my future life when I am old.

Almost all elderly people have activities that continue to be repeated every day without getting bored.
This has become a habit that will never disappear until the end of his life.

See documentary videos that show how the elderly do things that are quite extreme, but they enjoy it.
Gambling is only a small part of the activities that some elderly people do, it will be a positive activity if they enjoy it.

I agree with your view. To add to it, the only reason someone should stop gambling at that age is when the reason for gambling is making money. Someone who is in his 70s shouldn't be gambling with the hopes of getting rich. The emotional and mental disturbance occasioned by gambling can cause a lot of problems for an aged person.

However, if the aged person derives pleasure from gambling then he should continue gambling because it will not result in mental or emotional troubles. People of such can even live longer since they will continue to remain happy and we should know that happiness is vital to lead a healthy life.

that's right, if you still have enough money, and the basic needs of daily life are not disturbed then there is nothing wrong with continuing to gamble if it is a hobby, but on the other hand it is also not good to spend a lot of money on gambling even though they have a lot of money because in my opinion they can use the money for other things that are more beneficial to themselves. but back to yourself as you said above, it all depends on the rights of each individual. because of course they have a family who will give advice about the things they will do.

It makes sense, because if they are old they just want fun,  also if they have friends in the casino then it is a good reason for them to stay in the casino even though they are old. this is not a problem if they can manage everything well including their own finances and health if they can still manage it then there is nothing wrong. because I think sometimes we find things that are good for us but in the wrong place for many people.

Yes after all everyone has personal freedom in terms of choosing something, as I said above if indeed they can keep their involvement in gambling well then of course there is no harm, all of this is up to each person, but if on the contrary, if this activity interferes with their lives, for example mainly from money problems then maybe I can only expect them to realize about the problem point and what to do to solve the problem.

The point is that problems like this can only be solved with awareness and there are so many things that are difficult for them to do to achieve such awareness, and one of them is the expectation factor which indirectly actually blocks their way to a change for the better, and the obstacle is also "everyone needs money", they have to change their perspective on winning in the sense that they must not care about the importance of money, but this is a difficult thing to do to achieve the realization that gambling is not a place to earn.

What they have to be careful of is that gambling can tempt them and make them forget their original purpose of gambling, so they will gamble excessively. It doesn't matter whether the person gambling is old or young, experienced or inexperienced, they can be tempted according to their ability to control themselves. If they lose self-control, they will gamble longer than before and cannot remember their past well because everything will turn into a desire to get a bigger win or recover their losses. And this can happen to older people and because they feel they have a lot of experience in gambling, they will underestimate the temptation. They will feel that they can still control themselves well even though the temptation will slowly take control of them, so they don't realize that they have started to lose control of themselves. That is why if an elderly person wants to gamble, he can ask someone else to accompany him so that if something bad almost happens, that other person can pull him out of gambling and make him realize that he is almost drowning in the temptation of gambling.

There are two problems here.

Most gamblers have problem moving away from gambling after they make life changing money, and for such people they can still lose all their richness back to gambling, it's a blessing if you can win and gently walk away from gambling to establish your life for the greater future sake.

A gambler who have the mindset to make it in gambling before even starting could eventually get addicted, remember they have a goal to retire using gambling? It's not a safe plan and it can easily mess you up, you will easily be depressed if you fail to achieve your goal by gambling.

The safest thing is to not dream of anything with gambling, just have some fun like you use to do when you visit a cinema with your man or woman or friends, if you are the next gambling millionaire it will happen, it's probably part of your fate, but don't bet on it, risk only what you can and be a realistic.

Being optimistic or dreaming is what makes gambling unique and entertaining on its own way. It’s not gambling if you are just playing without thinking about your potential max win.

Gambling is not a job or something that needs to be retired when you already win big. It’s a form of entertainment so I guess considering it as form of entertainment always is the best way to play safe in gambling. People considering gambling as serious source of income are always the one being a victim of severe losses because they can’t think straight in the presence of money. Just play normally and dream high. Just don’t mixed your dream to reality to avoid greediness.

This mindset is a rational one, whenever you are making profits, it's not time to ignore your earlier principles of gambling if at all you had one, instead it's time to take some tips for your struggle. It's very good to take away the gains and continue gambling with your initial deposit. The more you win, the more you reduce the money in the platform, it isn't bad at all that you had something for yourself after a good gambling time. The target should not always be to lose all, if gains present itself, you take it for yourself and retain your minimum deposit principles.

This will help you mitigate all forms of pressure during gambling. gambling should have a timing, mine is at most 1hr per session. whether you are winning or losing, as soon as the alarm goes off, it's important to leave a session and end it for the day. Now you're not leaving because you are no longer interested in gambling, but you're observing your principles which is very pertinent for continious rational engagement in gambling.

Companionship in gambling contexts is prudent and necessary. A friend or family member reminds you of life outside the casino. Create a safety net to keep gambling fun, not dangerous. This collaborative approach to gambling might tip the scales between fun and caution.

Remember, gambling should be fun. A self-aware and moderate approach to leisure can make life exciting. Having a friend improves the gambling experience and prevents overindulgence. Share the highs, learn from the lows, and ground each other. This to me is responsible gambling: enjoying the excitement while knowing its boundaries.

As long as we are able to control gambling well, are able to minimize, overcome and manage the risks involved, are able to gamble responsibly, are able to manage gambling activities without having to miss things that are more important than just gambling, we want to gamble until we die. not a problem. However, when you are unable to control your gambling activities well and it can only cause losses and other negative impacts, then don't wait until you are old or until you die, then decide to give up gambling. If you are really unable to control it, then don't take too long to decide to stop the activity, but decide right now to stop the activity, promise not to visit casinos again and avoid all forms of gambling.

when you come to an age where your back aches already, it's time. you wouldn't want people to see you with a face of disgust. you know it when you don't belong in the crowd anymore.  no offense to the old guys. you're not going there in a wheelchair. because if you do, one can tell your children weren't taking care of you.

i'm sure when you get to that age, you already are receiving a pension to survive. you don't need to gamble anymore.

precisely because gambling cannot be controlled, or in the sense of gambling addiction which has a negative impact. even if you realize it, it's quite difficult to leave. Even if you are getting older and no longer have money to gamble, the impact could be on your family.
Stop gambling for those who have good conscious control may be easy. but those who find it difficult to give up their gambling activities, find the urge to leave and do it gradually. reduce the portion of the game.
not everyone will grow old with money and wealth. those who no longer have anything will stop when they can no longer bet.

I don't think there's any problem with betting his retirement money at the gambling table, what else is he going to do if he's 70 years old if it's not something he likes like gambling.
Actually, it's good if he gambles in his old age, it might make his brain continue to work optimally. Because generally elderly people will lose cognitive abilities as they get older because the activities they do will decrease.
For them, it is not difficult to stop gambling because gambling is not a burden. I feel that older people are more easy going about everything.

Of course, it will have a bad impact if we gamble continuously and we will experience addiction from the gambling we play. When we are addicted, it will be very difficult to recover from gambling addiction and this will have an impact on the lives of those closest to us.
Yes, for those who can control themselves they will certainly be able to easily eliminate their desire to gamble, but for those who cannot control themselves they will certainly continue gambling until they have nothing they can bet on.

Many of them spend their retirement by gambling just to find fun and small profits. and if we are unable to remove gambling from our daily lives, then control the gambling well.

At a young age and still single, perhaps an individual will have a lot of free time, but that doesn't mean we have to spend that time gambling, it would be better if we dedicate that time to continuing to increase our knowledge, insight, experience and hone the skills we have. Because after all we have to take full responsibility for a better future. So as much as possible we must be able to regulate gambling better. And when we get to the age of getting married and already have a family, it would be even wiser if we were able to reduce the time we spend gambling. Because when you have a family, we not only have responsibilities to ourselves, but a wife and children are also part of your responsibilities, and it would be stupid if we prioritize gambling over our responsibilities as the backbone and head of the family.

And once we reach old age and retirement, maybe we will have quite a lot of free time, because our children are old enough and independent, and we are free from the responsibilities and demands of work, but that doesn't mean we have to dedicate that time only to just to gamble, because there are still more important things than that, such as providing family education to our children and grandchildren.

So as long as we have good self-control, then gambling until we die is not a serious problem.

Addiction is a possibility that will more certainly occur if anyone is doing excessive gambling activities such as not knowing how to stop and the desire is only to continue gambling, addiction is a disease that is very difficult to cure because there is absolutely no doctor's prescription to cure a disease like this, one of the reasons is because the disease of addiction is in the self and the human brain which has different beliefs and mindsets from normal people in general, Perhaps we also know that the most difficult thing to change is "habit" and an addicted gambler all they want is to continue gambling without stopping, and this is what makes it difficult to cure an addicted gambler, it is very difficult for them to reach the realization in themselves that what they are doing is wrong but most of them do not feel that what they are doing is wrong, even though it is clear that they are experiencing the financial impact of gambling.

So the point is that recovery from addiction must always start with the desire of the gambler themselves and if they are still basically very obsessed and ambitious with their gambling activities then it will be very difficult to overcome it, they will only stop when they have run out of everything.

In fact gambling is an addiction that can stay with you till death. Although we participate in gambling as entertainment, we have a different addiction to gambling. Almost every person develops this type of addiction as they grow older. But in my opinion a man should stop gambling at the age of 40 because gambling can increase the emotional tension of a person. When a person reaches the age of 40, his body already has high mental tension and diseases, so if gambling from above 40 years, he may be at risk of stock related or unique heart attack, brain stock etc. When one is old and old I think it is better to give up gambling and follow the religious path.

Yes because on the other hand everyone has the right in terms of choosing whatever they want including spending their old age gambling, after all this is a choice. On the other hand in my opinion if there are other options that can be chosen then I think they should choose other things compared to gambling because after all the name of gambling if you are involved there then at least you will experience some loss even if it is not too big, but with you choosing other things that are also quite fun but do not involve risk at all then the advantage is that you will not lose anything except time.

I understand that an elderly person will definitely reduce their activities due to age, but on the other hand we cannot corner or even support them to prefer gambling activities to fill their retirement, on the other hand I also understand that they have a good mindset and maturity but it cannot be denied that it can still be possible for them to eventually fall into the wrong gambling, I mean because in gambling there are a lot of things that look tempting so this could be a possibility for them to finally be tempted, isn't it unethical for parents to spend their retirement with depression due to the impact of gambling? Of course, so I think the conclusion is that if there are other things that can be chosen then it is better and more advisable.

Exactly, that's a money that this person has saved up for themselves and I think that they can do whatever they want with their retirement money so what's in it for us if we nose around what they do with their money? I don't think that we're going to see any kind of benefit from doing that besides looking like an asshole that can't keep themselves away from other people's lives. I don't agree that it's going to make his brain that active though maybe in some cases it does but not all games do this to someone's old brain, one good example is slot machine, there's really no strategy behind that and it's just a mindless lever pulling and watching the slots spin. They're definitely more easy going because they've got almost nothing to do, they're doing fine and the hard work is all behind them so they do this kind of stuff so they can relax themselves and we love that they do that instead of just staying on nursing home waiting for the day their old age takes them away.

Every person has their mind and their view about this topic but in my view, a person should continue betting until he has some energy to move his own body that means if he is not paralyzed in old age then he should continue gambling. Gambling is a game that you can understand through experience and at the age of 77 or whatever he has vast experience in gambling and the chances of winning are maximum so that's why a person should continue his gambling whatever his age.

No one can advise a gambler to stop gambling.
Another way is if your assets run out and you have no more money to gamble, a gambler will automatically stop gambling on his own.
other than that a gambler will not be able to stop gambling

If you have been a gambler all your life and have reached retirement age without being broke, you are a responsible gambler. That is why I agree with you that continuing gambling in old age will not harm him, on the contrary, it helps him to exercise his thinking. I remember my grandfather in retirement playing cards with money but moderate amounts, a bit to pass the time and with the added excitement of a bit of money at stake.

Besides, retired people have a lot of time on their hands, gambling is a way to pass the time.

Having other people who will accompany us in gambling can help us to remind us if we have excessively gambled. We can also remind each other that we have been gambling for too long and need to stop immediately before we really go too far in gambling. We can help each other to prevent more losses so that we can still stay within the limits.

Playing gambling should be fun; when the atmosphere turns unpleasant, we must stop immediately before the situation turns bad. And by having other people around us who we know, it can help us to stop our gambling activities immediately. Having friends who can help each other will be very enjoyable, so we can use gambling for fun things.

Yes, it's true that nothing can stop someone from stopping gambling unless it starts from themselves to stop gambling. Many of the things I've tried to suggest from gambling friends around me, most of them ignore it because they still think I'm also an active gambler, that's why Why should fellow gamblers not advise someone to stop gambling, even though I sometimes advise them to stop gambling because they are too seriously addicted to gambling so stopping temporarily is the best way, but many people don't care.

I know that every gambler will stop by itself, usually when they start to lose all their wealth so that they no longer have money to finance their gambling, they will stop gambling by themselves, like my friend who stopped gambling after losing all his wealth and his family, now he is being treated in a place and being a person who is very stressed, actually there is no problem for people who want to gamble as long as it is within the correct limits, it is legal, but what is even more worrying is that gambling is not controlled so that gambling is beyond the limits which makes it seem like it is not okay. . that's what's dangerous

For pensioners like your grandfather, gambling can be a cognitive exercise. It boosts mood and cognition. Yes, moderation matters. Keeping gambling within boundaries keeps it fun, not stressful. I always said, why not enjoy gambling if you can manage your finances?

In addition, social aspect is crucial. Gambling is a method for seniors to socialize, laugh, and make memories. Its buddyship. As long as its done responsibly, gambling is a toast to a good life.

I don't see anything bad if an old person gambles, some of us might think why he doesn't spend the rest of his life with healthy activities, but from his mind we can read that he gambles and has fun in his old age, according to him that's what it is. that makes him happy, for him by gambling he gets the arts and pleasures of life so it's not good to see him bad

Yes... maybe not as easy as we say, and not as easy as turning the palm of your hand. And when you are unable to stop gambling, then keep trying to control the gambling, better yet, admit and realize that in this case you are indeed at fault. Because self-awareness is the first step towards change. Apart from that, you have to seek support from other people or from people you care about, to be able to control gambling and overcome this addiction, so set limits and make rules for yourself regarding the gambling you do. And to reduce your time spent gambling, look for more positive activities, find a new hobby or focus on an activity that can improve your physical and mental health.

However, if the feeling of addiction is very acute, where the feeling of addiction is really affecting your daily life, then immediately consult a mental health professional for further help or by going to rehabilitation.

I don’t believe gambling has a retirement age. Gambling is not a job, most people claim they gamble for fun and not for financial gain. Although there comes a time when you have to quit certain activities that could increase your blood pressure, unfortunately gambling is one of them. In my opinion, 70-75year olds should not be gambling, they cannot handle the adrenaline rush of winning neither can they bear the pain of losing.

If you are having a sickness or any sickness that affect your health and when gambling, please just stop. It doesn't matter if you are making money or not because health comes before wealth. If you gamble and you have complications like high blood pressure, low sugar level and shock, you really need to stop gambling before it kills you because I have read woke places where a gambler won and he died from shock of winning big amounts of money. What's the benefit of winning money and then die later.

When you are also old, kindly and gently avoid gambling and focus on fishing, there are other activities outdoor where you can have a lot of fun because gambling as an old person doesn't fit. It's will be challenging if an old age person gamble everyday when he can't control his addiction.

It seems there is no such thing as retirement for gambling games. As long as you still have money, you can play. It could be that a young man who has lost a lot from games says he has retired from gambling because he always loses and returns to the right path.

Everyone is free to gamble. but there should be some degree of regulations, even with regulations, it doesn't deter the oldies from involving themselves. The laws are mostly targeted at minors than they do at oldies.

These oldies don't get started with gambling at such ages, they must have been into it before then, that means they know just what to do when they get to it. Allow them live their life as long as they do it in modesty.

It depends on the individual gambler. As we age, we tend to have fewer activities in our daily lives. Older people may look for ways to stay active, engage their minds, and find something that interests them to fill their leisure time. Gambling can be one of these activities. Gambling for them is not about making money, but an activity to spend their time.

Many people aged 70 in my area still gamble and many of them are retirees who work in the government. I didn't have the courage to ask them because I thought that they were enjoying their old age by gambling. Even though some of them play secretly because they are afraid of their children finding out, I don't think gambling in old age is a good thing.

But yes, it's up to them because we know that someone has the desire in old age to enjoy their life and maybe gambling is one way to get rid of their stress. Apart from that, if they already have children, it is better for them to stay away from gambling in old age because if their children find out, it will definitely be quite embarrassing. For old age, enjoy life in a better way by not gambling.

Don't you ask the old man personal questions because usually an old man who continues to gamble could indicate that the old man is lonely!

not far from my house, there is an old man who often plays timezone just to spend his money there, when I asked him why he often did that, he said he was very lonely because his children and grandchildren did not live with him.

Although there is no research that can explain in detail at what age you will stop gambling, environmental and psychological factors can make you continue gambling until you die, but the chances will be small if you have an intact family in your old age.

I don't understand why old retired people can't gamble. The most important thing is that they do not get into debt, because they do not have enough time to pay them back. And it would be even more offensive to live the rest of your life, forced to work in a job you don’t like, paying off your debt. Often, old people cannot even get a hired job to pay off the debt and they will have to pay the debt from their pension. But if an older person manages their funds well and has an upper limit on how much they can spend on gaming per month, then I don't think gaming would be a problem for them. Games may well bring him pleasure. For many older people, life is quite sad.

I don't see why not. I can imagine myself perfectly fine at retirement age and playing poker, although for me it's a side hustle. For even professional players I can also imagine it but with less frequency of play. In addition to a lesser frequency of play in face-to-face. But playing poker from time to time comfortably from time to time at home as an entertainment and earn extra money for sure.

That's what many people dream of in retirement.
Play comfortably at home without thinking about any work, this is entertainment that will not make you bored.

But to achieve this, it needs to be financially good enough so that you no longer think about money for living expenses.
Having a good financial foundation will provide security in the future.

There is no rule that gambling will always bring benefits, usually people win gambling based on experience. Usually when participating in a football game, it is possible to win based on experience, comparing the difference between the players of the two sides and betting on the team that performs better.

the fact that a person is aging doesn't mean he should stop doing the little thing that gives him joy. What makes an old person to continue living Long is those engagement that he involves himself in that keeps him going on.

Retirement doesn't mean one should stop doing anything at all, it means you should slow down and start doing things that aren't all that stressful to your health. To be honest, most aged people need gambling and other fun activity more than the younger one because they've passed the age of active service so they need environment like that were they can discuss with younger gamblers and share with them their experiences and probably give them good advice on how to go about with ethical gambling.

The moment you stop and older man that was ones a gambler from involving in the art just because of his age, you've obviously sent him to his early grave because he will feel that he is useless and in no time depression will come in and he will age faster than normal.  

I agree. It's one way to please them and I think there's nothing wrong with that.
Regarding money, old people are good at managing them because of their experience. I don't think they will go as far as betting what they cannot afford to lose especially if they are only there to have some fun.
Perhaps, they will just bet small amount and try to prolong the game. That's the best way to waste more time on a boring day.
This is why we see a lot of old people in the Bingo houses. Why? Simply because they want to have a bit of fun while there's really nothing to do for the day. When we are old, perhaps we will understand that.
I've been in a bingo house before and I thought it was going to be boring, but actually, it was fun especially if you can win in just 1 round. :D
Why would you retire from gambling if it's simply a hobby? Right? Maybe those who made it their daily job or those who are addicted to it are the ones who should think about stopping because that will help their financial problems.

Not all retired players have enough capital to feel secure, more often than not, they don't even have enough pension to cover all their needs. And if they had enough money, they would not think about making money through gambling, it would be entertainment. The most important thing is that they do not worry too much during the game.

But speaking seriously, I don’t see any difference when a player plays, if he liked to do it before retirement, then he will continue to do it the same way in retirement, if it doesn’t harm him, then why not.

Sometimes luck comes to us too late when we already thinking about quitting and when we are desperate, sometimes when we are almost empty. But we never have to think of a situation like this because most of the time it never comes. Good thing you have recovered some at least your patience and controlling emotions have paid off. Gambling is stressful when we are chasing winnings and the usual reason why we lose more. Most of the time we increase our best thinking we will win the next round but most of the time we fail. And it was not a healthy gambling practice anymore, instead had some limitations and stick on rather than feel regret after.

Gamblers don't ever quit, even if they make all the money in the world they will still always come back, its like a disease that refuse to let go from their skin, and this is the only problem I have with gambling, to quit is a a tug of war unless you are not into gambling before, and you have experience of people that lost everything in gambling.

Their past bad experience can make you a responsible gambler and you will know how to take risks in gambling, those telling you that the higher amount you risk the better are not helping you, either you are winning or not you must keep using what you can afford to lose.

I would rather miss my luck in gambling when I quit that let my whole life be build for gambling only, the biggest problems in gambling are on those who want the best results in gambling, I would rather have some result from business and running a company.

That means it depends on each gambler because if a gambler can win a lot of money from gambling, they can choose to retire from gambling and enjoy the money and use it to open a business that can provide passive income for them. But not many can get something like that because most of them will lose their money and many will end up bankrupt. They can't retire from gambling but they can stop gambling even though they haven't been able to make a lot of money. They stop gambling because of the impact of becoming addicted to gambling if they continue their gambling activities so stopping gambling would be the best way.

Depending on the gambler the older person has much less control. While the time-consuming activity can become addictive at times it doesn't take long to run out of cash. Gambling should not continue for many people in old age as they suffer from insecurity and spend their days in financial straits. Find other ways to spend your free time where there is no addiction and secure money that will be used during your free time you can easily enjoy entertainment.

Gambling has no age limit and whosoever that choses to play gamble should play in respective of the age. Sometimes the older you become the more it becomes fun to you. Some might not necessarily be playing the gamble but always watching football. But if it's playing of gamble I sudjest the age for calling it a quit should be around 55yeqrs going to 60 but if he has the opportunity to play and win big at early age I think he should have stop then.

Wise people would make sure they have a financially stable old age for which they will work very hard when they are young and keep saving money or creating assets for their future so that they don't need to worry about finances when they grow old. Such people would have no issues with whatever they want to do because they will have funds available when they are retired and they can use that money to do anything that gives them pleasure.

People who don't save money when they can or do anything for their future but instead take loans and have a lot of debt by the time they need to retire will surely have a hard time when they are old because they can't work the same way when you are old which is why it's essential to make your young days work.

That is the ideal, we as people who , in reality , because of the circumstances, many of us cannot live on what they call retirement or live well even though we are professionals, because in the lives of many of us those who have studied, well, professionals They are not well paid and also the professionals who are in other countries perhaps have a different way of seeing things in their different way of life , I see other Countries like Europe that are very good with our Salaries And yes, you are Encouraged to Offer your People a good Retirement plan in the Future , but not everyone has the same luck, sometimes you have to take risks that in your youth or when you might be saving because it is not possible now, For example, in my case, I Know many things , because I am an Electrical Engineer , and I know a lot About Control and Automation, PLC, and Everything that has to do with Electronics , with comprehensible Wxperience with medical Equipment in its Installation and Repair , but even Now things are not easy Because when you Ask for a job in Europe just Because I´m Latino, they don't see you as an option.

In the Latin countries it is very Difficult to get a Good , Respectable job , it is not like tha t, things are very different, things are harder, so when you know even more than the Same Europeans in certain branches they do not Take you into Consideration nor do they even Consider the opportunity of I'll tell you to see how it goes, no, then things only happen for those who live and are natives of those countries, that's all I'm Referring to, I mean, you have to work not just to live day to day , but to be able to offer better opportunities for a good life for a family, and try to look for jobs where you are very lucky and they take you and can trust in what can be Contributed , that is what I mean by this, so it is not like many think, it is much more difficult for some.

Gambling is a passion, and as long as you do it correctly, you should keep doing it; age is irrelevant as long as you enjoy it and know what you're doing. Most people believe that only those with unstable finances gamble, which is wrong; no one gambles more than wealthy individuals.

Personally, I gamble for fun, not because my finances or life depend on it, therefore I see no reason why I shouldn't play till I'm elderly as long as I have access to it. Anyone who relies on gambling, whether young or elderly, is making a big mistake.

I think so too, but some might want to stop gamble when they get to some ages they keep in their mind some 80 or 90.
When an old person is gambling online or offline the children can want to stop the person from gambling because they will think his stressing him self, mostly when the gambler is a local gamblers that gamble offline. The kind of family the gamblers have will determine whether he will continue to gamble at some point or not, other family members will prefer not stopping him but some will.

I don`t think that there is any amount of winning that can propel a gambler to stop gambling. The more you win, the more you want to continue playing to win even more. This is common among gamblers. Even when people lose continuously they continue gambling so how much more when they are winning? They will continue.

Many who won millions in gambling usually set up businesses as you have mentioned but that didn`t stop them from gambling. Gambling has been made in such a way that you can lie on your bed and gamble and so this ease of assessment has also made it difficult for people to stop gambling. I can make a pronouncement that I will not gamble again but then it takes very little thing to take me back to gambling especially when I remember the good old days.

I don`t advocate that people should stop gambling or retire at a certain age because the reason we gamble differs from individual to individual regardless of age. Some have fun through it, Some try to make mega money through it, and others use it even as a coping mechanism. So, if the old person is gambling for a justified reason we can only hope he gambles responsibly and controls his emotions because at that age they are easily prone to high blood pressure and his inability to control and guide his losses might result in that.

Yes, that's true because once a person wins, he will imagine how it would feel if he could win once again an even bigger amount of money. It would be fun for him because he could earn even more money. They will not really stop gambling and leave gambling forever because they have experienced getting a big win so there is a desire to gamble again to get an even bigger win. But in reality, they will still find it difficult to win again.

Those who can win millions in gambling and can set up a business and grow it bigger should no longer need to think about gambling because they can already make money from their business. Maybe he can go back to gambling, but there is no need to use a lot of money because, at that time, they should be able to think of gambling as entertainment and not to make money. They must realize that it will be difficult for them to win millions more from gambling so they should focus on their business and think about how to grow their business even bigger.

People need to determine when they can retire from gambling so that when they decide actually to retire from gambling, they don't do it by force but because they are aware that they no longer need to gamble. But only a few can have such awareness, while others still try to gamble to win a lot of money. Indeed, leaving gambling forever requires strong effort because of the pleasure they get from gambling, so they still want to return to gambling after stopping for a while. There is a desire to repeat the times when they could get that pleasure and they want to know if anything has changed about gambling so that they end up going back to gambling again.

I think so. It could be because of personal reasons, money matters or just wanting a change. Knowing when to quit gambling is a personal call. If it's messing with your finances or making life stressful, it might be time to take a step back. Keep an eye on your well-being like if it's not fun anymore, rethink things. Setting limits and sticking to them helps and remember that gambling is not a surefire moneymaker

Isn't it annoying that we need to interview and ask anyone why they still gambled at his age?

It's out of our business anymore even if you don't have any bad intention of asking that. The old guy might just be enjoying his life to the fullest as maybe he's used to gambling during his prime days. There's no right age to stop gambling.

As long as the gambler is a responsible person in gambling, they can continue regardless of their age, until their inner self shows no interest anymore in gambling or is no longer capable anymore to do gambling.
