1021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you seen gambling advertisements on TV? Opinion. on: February 12, 2024, 03:56:11 PM
I think we will not be able to completely prevent some shows that involve or that have elements of gambling promotion to limit their promotional shows on several media such as TV channels or other platforms because now is the digital era that all things we can find by just looking and carrying, a lot of references and knowledge that we can get on the internet because indeed on the other hand the internet has become an important part for several companies to develop their business because it is the internet that is their biggest promotional place, and we can find many things whether positive or negative.

So the point is that we as parents must make plans that lead to prevention in any way that we think makes sense, and one of them may be by limiting the activities carried out by a child who is still underage who does have a high enough curiosity about something they see, I think limiting them from the association of the environment along with limiting them from using social media is a good step to minimize.
1022  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: February 12, 2024, 03:35:47 PM
Playing gambling often will only result in more losses than they usually get because by playing gambling often, they also have to use more money, which will not guarantee that they can win a certain amount of money. And if they calculate their money spent, it will exceed their set limit and make the amount of money they lose even more. They should stick to their limits in gambling and not deposit more money because that will risk losing even more money.

That's why it's important for us to allocate a certain amount of money for gambling because it can prevent us from using more money and won't give us problems later. Many people have experienced bigger losses so we don't need to follow them in using more money. We must control ourselves in depositing money and stay within the limits we can afford so that we will not experience losses that we cannot afford. By using gambling properly, we can enjoy gambling as entertainment so that we will not experience any problems.

You were so clear on this and rightly too. Having income shouldn`t mean gambling without limitations. Without limitations, you will record more losses and be likely to get into debt or sell properties in the quest of trying to recoup losses. Gambling is full of uncertainty so our income shouldn't be thrown to gambling all the time. There is always a call for self-control because with self-control we can get the best from gambling. In my opinion, getting the best from gambling means having fun and learning from the experiences gathered in the course of gambling. This can only be achieved when we gamble only with the amount we are prepared to lose.

That's right, and it means that even if you have a steady income at the end of the day you should not ignore some important points that must be applied in gambling activities, not least because it is all for our good and safety as well during the period of involvement. Perhaps we also know that money is a requirement for everyone to gamble and emotions are one of the main causes of most people allocating money in uncontrolled or usually larger amounts.

Therefore, it means that even if you have a lot of money, you are very likely to end up losing all your money or even leaving a lot of debt as a result of not implementing risk management such as management and limits on gambling involvement. You are right and it is indeed a ridiculous act and decision if you put all the money from your salary just to gamble, you should be able to appreciate your efforts that you have to sweat a lot to be able to get that money and therefore it does not make sense if you spend it all in gambling. For me gambling is nothing more than an activity that usually fills my spare time when I'm off work by only putting a small amount and without putting any expectations on winning, if it does win then I will consider that it was my lucky day, nothing more.
1023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You will do in this situation? on: February 12, 2024, 03:15:25 PM

Well, though you are right that a lot of people might gamble just to pass their time and spend their spare time on it, however, when we talk about sports betting, indeed, it cannot be used as a time killer but it isn't as simple as just placing the bet because unlike gambling games, sports betting requires research and analysis for every bet so that you don't lose your bets because sports betting isn't always dependent on luck like gambling games.

This is the reason why some people might not find sports betting fun because they can't cope with the requirements and if you can't do your homework well, you will probably lose money and it's not fun when you are not being entertained and also losing money in the process.

The people who do the gambling for the entertainment was very low,many gamblers doing the gambling for making money.Because money making in the current world with the business became the hard one.This was the cause for the gamblers choose the gambling as their earnings sources.Some gamblers try to make the gambling site as their full time job.But they need to understand this was the game,So the negative side in the gambling also the possible one.If the gamblers want to make the gambling as the source of revenue,it was essentially important one for the gambler to have the unique gambling strategy to make money.

True, circumstances become one of the factors that ultimately become an excuse for them to gamble with the aim of earning, I remember that when we were still in the covid - 19 situation many people around me and one of them was my friend who lost his job who eventually turned to gambling as a place to earn, this is the worst situation due to the intolerable needs of life that in the end you will justify all means to be able to make money by putting aside other aspects such as the possible risks that exist in gambling and also that can never be separated from the name gambling. This is one of the reasons that most gamblers come, they can come with an urgent situation that overrides the possibility of risk and they can also deliberately override the risk even though they are not in an urgent situation.

Either way I can confirm that they will end up in a much worse situation when you try to make gambling as a place to earn, on the other hand we must understand that gambling is a profitable business for the casino as a whole and not for the players, what I mean is that the main purpose of the bookie establishing a casino is for their own benefit and this is the reason why it is absolutely not recommended to make gambling as a place to earn, Maybe you already know that losses usually dominate far more than wins and that's natural because your losses are profits for the casino, on the other hand if the strategy can bring you a lot of wins then I think many gamblers have become rich people, but the fact is that the opposite is true.

1024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to manage gambling winnings on: February 12, 2024, 02:54:47 PM
Your opinion is absolutely correct, when we want to start gambling and our beliefs are still in doubt then we should gamble using only a small amount of money, then when we win we need to pay attention that we need to save some of our winnings. daily needs and don't think that when we gamble again using a lot of money, we will win again, even though the success is still in doubt.
It is better to play according to a small budget. If we lose we don't feel like we have lost much and when we win, even though the result is not much, we have to be able to accept it.

Gambling is different, some require using a fairly large budget and some can use a small budget, but whether small or large the budget for gambling is the same, it is clear that defeat dominates, it is rare to win in gambling. but what you say is true, we have to gamble with a small budget, because even with a small budget, there is still a chance of winning, but there is still a chance of losing with the possibility of losing.

In my opinion, there are rarely wins that can be obtained, this is the right reason for managing gambling winnings, many wins are in vain because there are gamblers who win at gambling but they waste their winnings, by continuing gambling and also by increasing the amount of their bet because they are still want to get bigger wins. So that in the end what will most likely happen is defeat and the loss of the victory that has been obtained. In my opinion, when you win at gambling, the best choice is to cash it in and leave gambling to enjoy the win, and if you still want to gamble, it's better to gamble again another day, don't continue gambling when you've won.

What you say is true, basically winning is very rare and difficult to get, only lucky people get it, therefore gambling with small bets will prevent us from experiencing big risks when defeat comes and if we win, manage it. our money to be used for useful and useful things. The important thing in our life is good and correct steps.
I agree with you, when you win, it is better to immediately leave the gambling place, so that we are not tempted and attracted again by the tricks in the casino.

Yes and we have to keep telling ourselves that "you can win when you are really lucky" only luck can bring you the results you expect, don't take it too seriously and if you lose then it means you are unlucky. Seriousness in gambling can lead you down the wrong path, so avoid it because after all gambling is nothing more than a place to find a little fun through some thrills you feel from a few spins or something that can help enliven the atmosphere with a little adrenaline in the running game.

Since gambling is an activity that is suggested only for entertainment purposes then obviously isn't putting in a small amount the right approach? Of course, because what we are looking for here is entertainment and not profit, if there was no risk behind gambling then maybe I would put a very large amount for a profit, but the problem is that the victory in gambling is always unpredictable and this is the reason why we should be more concerned with risk management than profit by putting the smallest amount we have, and also another benefit of treating gambling as an entertainment activity is that you will have no difficulty in making the decision to "cash out" when you are really lucky.
1025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do i handle my first gambling experience on: February 12, 2024, 02:34:54 PM

Yes this is a situation where a gambler especially those beginners to experience a change in mindset and perspective on gambling just because they managed to get a win, as you said that in that situation it is possible for them to think and assume that "I have done the right thing that ultimately makes me manage to go home with a win", I think it is not uncommon or even many gamblers who eventually lose consciousness because they are too serious in taking the sensation of the victory they managed to get which in the end they unconsciously become so confident that they already know how to gamble the "right" way that can produce victory. And I would say that this is the initial scenario of a gambler entering the addiction cycle where they will feel strange when in the next session they lose even though they have done the same way as before when they managed to get a win, and this makes them unable to accept the fact that they lost which ultimately causes emotions that are the beginning of many out of control actions. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of risk in gambling because this activity is a game of chance that involves risk.

The horrible part is that some of the gamblers start analyzing their moves in case of losing. "What have I done wrong this time?", they think, "What made me lose?" And if you are searching hard enough, you'll "find out" eventually. It can be "wrong" time of the day or week. Or wearing "wrong" clothes during your gambling session. Millions of things.

That's right, I believe that what you're saying is a fact that people do experience when they're in a losing situation, trying to identify their mistakes in ways that sometimes seem absurd to most normal people. The point is, if you are always looking for something in the sense of trying to find what you did wrong that made you end up losing then obviously I think your actions are completely futile, and you will only create your own excuses which are basically not the real reasons that made you lose.

However, as I said before, these are the things that you will feel when you come without a proper understanding of gambling, you will look for anything that you think is reasonable enough to be the reason why you lost at that time. This is actually a completely absurd action because the randomness of the algorithm implemented by the casino makes it impossible for us to identify the location of the error, so don't take gambling too seriously, because the name of gambling is always about winning and losing which will always be the answer at the end of the session, it's actually very simple, if you lose it means you are unlucky.
1026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner needs your advices in gambling. on: February 12, 2024, 02:07:29 PM
Gambling could affect your real life only if you start gambling for money. Otherwise there's no problem. And your one more question was, if gambling can make you addicted or not? Actually its verily possible that gambling could make you addiction. That will happenen when you gambling for earning and when you loss, you'll naturally again do gambling for recovery. And if you win, then money can makes you greedy and then it also inspires you to gambling again! Actually gambling is depends on you how you consider it. gamble for fun, not for making money. And don't gambling higher and control yourself

Gambling with the intention and purpose of earning money or income is the goal that most gamblers bring with them and now most of them have entered the addiction phase where they just spin on the cycle of getting winnings and losing and gambling again with the purpose of wanting to restore something that has been lost, there is absolutely no time limit that can determine about how long you will be in such a situation, the point is if you can identify the mistakes in terms of the approach you have in gambling then I think change is something that will not be too difficult for you to do.

I can honestly say that if they come in with the goal of making money then obviously they're going to feel addicted, because making winnings is their main goal and fun is another thing that's actually more advisable but it's something that they ignore. Actually there is no good situation if you have entered the addiction phase, you have also said here that when they win they will be greedy and when they lose they will be curious and try various ways to achieve recovery, but restoring something that has been lost in gambling will not be that easy, and the opposite happens where the amount you lose will be even greater, so we must be careful and always apply awareness and caution to avoid addiction.
1027  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think women will make better gamblers by their nature? on: February 12, 2024, 01:41:51 PM
Honestly I can't confirm whether women can be better gamblers than men or not, if you point to the habits and traits that women have in general where they are someone who has management and who can take care of things well then yes it is true, as we see how the role of a woman when they are already a housewife where usually they are the ones who manage all the financial allocations in the family or that are given by her husband such as dividing for kitchen needs and other needs.

But if you bring this habit of theirs to gambling then I think it's another thing, I believe that women are someone who likes to take care of everything they have but I don't think that will be able to determine whether they can be better gamblers or not, after all gambling is an activity that can stimulate the human brain and mind and women are someone who is the same as men where they are also creatures of perception and they also have emotions, So this means that it is possible for them to eventually fall into the wrong approach to gambling over time as they cannot resist the temptations that are essentially nothing more than deceptions in gambling, and of course it is possible for them to eventually become addicted.
1028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: February 12, 2024, 01:21:12 PM
For a gambler that is not aiming to obtain profits with their hobby this is probably the most important skill they need to develop, and while to stop gambling when you are having the time of your life is difficult, as who wants to stop when they are having so much fun at the time? It has to be done as it is at those times when you can take some really dumb decisions that can cost you a massive amount of money and from which it can be difficult to recover.
Even though they find it difficult to stop gambling while they are having fun, they should still be able to do it. Otherwise, they will only experience losing more money and the pleasure will be replaced by disappointment because they have lost more money. They will also find it difficult to recover their lost money so even if they deposit more money, it does not guarantee they can win. They may experience losing more money and for this reason, they must be able to gamble responsibly so they can prevent losing more money. It's okay if they have experienced losing their money because that is what they have to experience if they gamble. If they don't want to lose money, they don't need to gamble and look for other activities that don't use too much money but can also have fun.
All about balance, right? Knowing when to hold and fold. I think gambling can be fun without regret. Set boundaries beforehand to change the game. I practice setting a budget for the evening's amusement and sticking to it, win or lose.

Remember, gambling is simply one method to have fun. If you struggle to stop, step back and reassess. Finding new ways to have fun doesnt imply giving up. Responsible gaming lets you have pleasure without disappointment. Remember that enjoyment is more important than money. Take it easy and gamble sensibly.

You are right that gambling should be fun without involving regrets at the end of the session, but the opposite is true where most gamblers feel a lot of pressure, they seem to hide behind the idea of "fun" when it is nothing more than their shelter to avoid the ridicule of some other gamblers especially their friends who really gamble for fun.

On the other hand I think gamblers who come with the right understanding will have no trouble doing all the things that are suggested such as applying the following limits also with no expectations, they understand that gambling is nothing more than a game of "possibility", they also understand that there is a chance of winning but on the other hand they do not rule out the possibility of losing so this is what makes responsible gamblers prioritize balance over earning, they understand that the "absence of certainty" in gambling will make their efforts futile when they gamble with the aim of earning.
1029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever introduced an elder gambler to online betting? on: February 12, 2024, 01:00:28 PM
No, and never.

Never be the guy who introduces gambling to other people. I mean like trading, investment and gambling just do it with your self because some people might get financial problem from losing their asset.

So, rather than make a problem to someone else. Better to keep it on your self.

Exactly, recommending something that has the possibility of risk should really be avoided, as you said and the point is we will never know about how they will treat their gambling activities, no matter how good you are in terms of promoting gambling to them but in the end it is possible for them to gamble impulsively, and of course it is possible for them to end up blaming us as a result of losing or bad effects that they cannot accept.

Especially if you are promoting gambling to people who have entered the elderly phase, I would not care for the idea of gambling for fun, most of them have the excuse that they want to promote something so that elderly people can spend their old age having fun in gambling, but the fact is that gambling can be a completely unpleasant activity when you gamble in the wrong way or approach, all of this has the possibility to eventually happen, and obviously one of our better decisions is "don't promote gambling to anyone".
You would really be blamed and you would really be that having that sense of responsibility if you do see someone who have lost big time on gambling just because you do make out some recommendations. This is why it would really be that best that you shouldnt really be telling something about gambling specially into those old people. They do easily believe
when there's someone who would really be telling this and like that. Easy money? If the old person does have that gambling experience then it wont be an issue but if they are
totally newbie then for sure they would really be that impulsive even if  they are already on that old age or something can be called experience.
We are not all knowing being on which there would really always those gaps.

Yes and I think this is a possibility that really has great potential to happen, although basically they have a pretty good responsibility in themselves especially in real life but I'm not sure they can be someone who is responsible  when it comes to gambling, anyone will never like the name "loss" and when they really experience a losing situation then it is very likely that they will eventually come to you to blame.

I have always avoided the idea of promoting gambling to others especially some of my friends even though they basically always force me to tell them how to gamble and how to deposit on some online casino sites, but I say that I will never tell you because after all I care about some of my friends and I am afraid that they will eventually become addicted. If the people who get promoted are basically newbies or people who never knew about the world of gambling then obviously  there is a high probability that they will be able to think that gambling is a "place to earn" and usually this assumption and mindset will come when they manage to get a win, on the other hand I think on the contrary that we should avoid gambling from the elderly because I don't want them to spend their lifetime experiencing many bad effects of gambling.
1030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Selling a property to play gamble on: February 12, 2024, 12:37:29 PM
Selling property for the sake of gambling is often unjustified. It is unlikely that you can win as much as the real estate is worth by making small bets. And if you make large bets - the probability of total bankruptcy increases greatly. It makes more sense to invest a lot of money in more or less reliable shares of companies - yes, they may go bust, but there is a chance to save something.

Therefore prevention is much better than cure, on the other hand I am sure for people who do things based on common sense and awareness they will not be able to dare to take reckless actions like this, after all this is too risky and there is absolutely no guarantee to be able to return something that has been lost. I understand that everyone especially gamblers have the right to whatever they want to do, it doesn't matter if you want to sell your valuable assets just for the sake of gambling but with a note that you must be able to account for the results at the end of the session especially when the results are far from what you expected. On the other hand, I definitely agree with that it is better to put large sums of money in other things that do have the potential for a development in the money we put, whether it's stocks or other investments that do have prospects and certainty for return or recovery.
When the risk is big and the profits are small there isn't any need to take the risk because it's not profitable and still risky in a way you are not sure you will gain.
I agree to your comments that's some people who does things with common sense and with the awareness of what they are doing can not make these mistakes as they will think about the risk involved and if it doesn't worth it they just allow it flip away so they can avoid risking when losing is involved.
It can take much longer time to gather properties and can only take a seconds to sell them, to avoid any decisions that will make you sell is never to put the thought of recovering winning.

In gambling when you put a large budget amount then obviously the possibility of winning must also be large, but it's all nothing more than a "possibility" which means it doesn't necessarily happen, one of the things why we shouldn't put a large budget amount because of course there is absolutely no certainty for you to actually get a win at the end of the session, meaning the possibility of risk can never be avoided because what is called gambling is a certain amount of risk-taking activity, you will be able to be a healthy gambler when you only take low risks in the sense of putting a small amount on every gamble you do.

Yes you have repeated what I have said before that people who gamble based on their common sense and awareness will not dare to take risks that they cannot be responsible for in the end, as I said above that the possibility of risk can never be avoided completely and because of this responsible people prefer to put small amounts because the fear is that when they put large amounts that happen at the end of the session they lose, on the other hand they can win big but with a note must be really lucky while on the other hand anyone will never know when they are lucky. In gambling, the point is, never think about returning something that has been lost and don't put any hope in winning because this kind of mindset will only worsen your situation.
1031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress? on: February 12, 2024, 06:28:32 AM
I don't track my progress, but I track the money that comes in and goes out of my wallet into my accounts. I don't think you would call losses and wins as 'progress,' as progress only means you're getting something of positive note when applied to this context in gambling. Anyhow, it's great if you have a tracker of your wins and loss and see whether you have profited for some time. If your analysis show that you are losing tons of money, then perhaps it's best to quit gambling or rethink of ways to not lose so much.

Yes we can direct this tracking to the number of wins and losses in a certain time such as one month, two months or three months. I think this can be taken into consideration, especially when it turns out that the number of your losses is much greater than the wins then obviously as you said it is better to make a decision to quit gambling activities.

But on the other hand maybe I can also point to the idea of "tracking progress" on your approach, if you feel that lately you have not experienced too much adverse impact from your gambling activities in the sense of not losing too much money compared to before then maybe you can conclude that you have progressed towards a much better approach, and this scenario can be the opposite in the sense that you have experienced worse impact than the previous time.

1033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: February 12, 2024, 05:48:15 AM
The common point in both these mistakes is irrational exuberance, a natural feature of betting if you forget you can lose and get ahead of yourself you will trip up.   Never abandon your plan whether you win or lose, fortunes can turn and being greedy just means you give it back with your winnings if you keep spending them all on the bets.    I like the percentage approach but not many of us will just a more arbitrary rule in the moment, quit while you are ahead is a good rule regardless of your recent success if you are ahead it was a good day take the win and go get something to eat and drink off the game.    Continuing to play no matter what after your planned amount of hours is definitely a mistake I recognize and would try to avoid, same with tiredness, later night or drinking keep it sensible.

True, excitement can take away your sense of caution and vigilance, not only that because when you take excitement too seriously then it will also cause you to forget some of the plans along with the boundaries that you have previously made which in the end is clear as you said that this will make a person do things out of control that are not recommended such as applying greed unconsciously.

This scenario usually happens when you manage to get a win, only a small percentage of gamblers can end the session by cashing out and enjoying their winnings and most others prefer to apply greed by putting all the winning amount in the next session. This is why it's important to be mindful when you're gambling, because any situation in gambling whether it's winning or losing can really make you end up with something worse, simply put when you lose you get more curious and when you win it's usually not easy to ignore the greed that usually ends up in regret.
1034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: February 12, 2024, 05:28:15 AM
What is the main reason you say poor people take higher risks than rich people? In fact, they are at the same risk of bankruptcy, if in games rich people tend to use big bets and poor people tend to use small bets, so what differentiates them?
For me, they only differ nominally when gambling
In my opinion, this is not at all different between rich people and poor people because the risks are basically the same. Even though rich people will remain calm and will not experience difficulties when they lose at gambling, poor people will definitely have difficulties and can even immediately experience difficulties when they lose at gambling. So I think that's the small difference between a rich person and a poor person who loses a gambling bet at the same place.
That's the only difference? Isn't it the same thing that is risky for poor gamblers because they don't have big finances like rich gamblers so this really affects them because they might have difficulty managing their finances. While rich gamblers like you said they are calmer because the expenses used for gambling are not too influential because they still have a lot of money, the risk is that if they spend too much money on gambling they will go bankrupt but if they use it appropriately then it is not too risky for rich gamblers.

Of course, it is clear that poor people are at much greater risk than rich people, one of the reasons is because poor people have low finances which when they become one of the impulsive gamblers then obviously they will more quickly experience adverse effects such as experiencing difficulties in making ends meet because of gambling in an excessive or inadvisable way. The truth is that whether you are a poor gambler or a rich one, you can still end up with the same impact and maybe the difference is in terms of time, rich people have a pretty good financial level so they still have time to come to their senses and change their gambling methods for the better before they end up losing everything, and the difference with poor people is obviously you have also said that poor people will feel the bad impact of losing money faster. So basically I think for the issue of the possibility of impact, both have the same chance but maybe the difference is in terms of time.
1035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do not gamble with Loan Money~otherwise you will be in danger like me on: February 12, 2024, 05:00:18 AM
Borrowing money just to gamble is really too reckless, I understand that loans have many benefits and one of them is that most people use these funds for their living needs, or they use loan money in really urgent situations such as needing emergency funds when you are in any kind of trouble such as needing funds for hospital fees, and obviously however it is not recommended to utilize loan services for gambling.

This is a bad start to a habit that will eventually lead to a much worse situation. However gambling should be fun and not a forced activity, for me gambling is nothing more than a leisure activity when I'm off work by allocating 5 - 10% of my budget, and if I don't have any cold hard cash then obviously I'd rather allocate my intentions to something else that is also quite fun but less risky such as playing online games without the requirement to make a deposit or put money down. On the other hand, my advice is to gamble accordingly, don't take out a loan just to gamble because there is absolutely no certainty that you will win at the end of the session.
1036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: February 12, 2024, 04:40:59 AM
When someone starts to get to know gambling, there is a part of him that changes, whether it is his attitude, character, or even emotions. He must be able to recognize that the change has occurred to him. But most people won't be able to recognize it and don't care about it.
People will become more eager to win gambling games, whatever the results they get. This makes them gamble more and more often.
If they don't have self-control, they will only get deeper into gambling and will eventually become addicted to gambling. And his gambling addiction ultimately destroyed him.

I think it's a fact that only a few gamblers can identify the changes that happen to them, they usually feel fine, meaning they don't feel any changes, but in terms of impact they can feel that lately there is something bad that they feel like losing balance in their finances.

I think this is the situation that gamblers who are too focused on "winning chances" or those who are too focused on multiplying, because all they think about is "how can they win" so this makes them ignore some aspects of the changes that actually happen to them along with ignoring the actual fact that in gambling they don't really think about "possible risks". As you said that someone who is passionate about gambling activities will be very difficult for them to stop and what happens on the contrary is that they will become more aggressive and gamble more often, none other than the hope they put on winning, and this is typical of gamblers who will eventually fall into addiction.

Risking small amounts in gambling has always been the approach recommended by all thinking people using common sense, you can win with large amounts of bets but you are also very likely to lose, and obviously because of the possibility of losing that is why we are more advised to risk small amounts of most of your total weekly or monthly income, such as 1% suggested by the OP, if it is too small then you can increase it but it should not be more than 5%, with this small amount of budget then obviously the advantage is that you will not get financial problems as a result of the wrong approach to gambling.

We can see how the fate of gambling addicts who always spend their time and money only to gamble but they always end up in a much worse situation, on the other hand everyone does not like the name "loss" and that means "prevention is far better than cure" and by only putting a small amount or an amount that can be accounted for then you will not end up with emotions when the results lose, because obviously emotions are always the starting point where a gambler ends up in a much worse situation or a much bigger loss.

The small money risking was not seems the higher one for the gamblers,but just imagine you are asking loan for that small money with your friends.It’s not the easy one like you think,because not all the people will give credits at the needed time.So before use the money for the gambling you should understand whether you have enough knowledge to spend the real money.The money which you used for the gambling can be used by the gamblers on their regular expenses,Since you are skipping that expenses.It was essential for the gamblers to make the profit using the risking money in the gambling site for the gambling.

Simply put if you don't have the money or budget to allocate to gambling then obviously you can postpone the time to gamble, don't even think about borrowing money just to gamble because after all gambling should not be forced, meaning that if you don't have the money then obviously it is not recommended to take out a loan even with a small amount.

On the other hand I would say it's normal to take out a loan if it's for something else, or I mean taking out a loan for something that you really need in your life such as the necessities of life or to solve some financial problems when you are in an urgent situation that really needs money, because that's what borrowed money is for, but it's a very careless act when you use borrowed money for the purpose of gambling, this should not be allowed because I'm not sure you can withstand all the pressure due to the two risks that you can experience, first the pressure of having debt and second the pressure of losing when the money you borrowed turns out to be lost in gambling. So this action should really be avoided because it will lead to a much worse situation.

Responsibility is not based on whether you tell other people including your husband about your gambling activities or not, because responsibility is something that is within yourself, the point is that I cannot be sure that you are a responsible female gambler even if you tell your husband. And anyway I think there are quite a few husbands who would actually allow their wives to engage in gambling activities, overall gambling has a negative viewpoint in the eyes of society and maybe even in the eyes of your own husband and it is possible that you may not get permission from your husband to engage in this activity.

One of the things that I think will be on your husband's mind is that he is worried that the money he gives you as money to meet the needs of the kitchen turns out to be used for gambling, it cannot be denied and this is a possibility that is quite potentially large to happen, no matter even though you have a good responsibility in gambling by being able to resist all the temptations that exist in gambling, I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea, and I'm sure it's a good idea.

For women to have a social life, they will need to gamble and play with their friends. A loving husband I think wouldn't want to see their wife just wake up in the morning, get dressed, and then just sit on their porch watching cars passing by.

They gotta have a social life and not just taking care of their grandkids, they are not going to redo that over again, they are done with that. Some of them just visit their dying batches and friends all over the town, I'm sure it's a very sad situation ffor these old women. I would prefer them to just gamble around with their friends.

Do you think having a social life is only possible when they gamble? No, they can build social relationships with many people through other mediums and not just in the world of gambling, I understand that by gambling in a physical casino then you will be able to make many new acquaintances because you will meet many visitors who gamble at the same time as you, but if you mean more social relationships then I would say that a wife can improve social relationships with others in other ways such as hanging out with friends once a week on holidays, or exercising every morning with her neighbors in a group or going to one of the entertainment venues.

So you can't say that having an active social life can only be achieved by gambling, in fact this activity has the potential for a much worse situation when one day they have lost their responsibility in gambling activities which means they can end up like other addicts who have already fallen. For me, the saddest thing is when a woman who has full responsibility as a housewife ends up with an addict, because this can lead to arguments with her husband due to the excessive allocation of money to her gambling activities which makes them have problems making ends meet.

I completely agree with you. All people are different, some people manage to come to their senses after complete bankruptcy and realize that they need to get out of this addiction. Others, being at full-time, will constantly take revenge and win back, which will lead to an even greater disaster, because when a person wants revenge, he controls his emotions even less

That's true and one of the differences may be the level of awareness of a person, or I mean someone will be able to realize their mistakes when they experience things that are not too painful but on the other hand there are also some who never realize about their mistakes even though they have experienced many significant adverse effects as a result of their gambling activities. I think this is also quite related to their financial capabilities, in the sense that if they still have other income in their real life such as from their main job then they still have the opportunity to continue gambling even though they have basically lost a lot of things in their life. But overall it's clear that everyone has their own limits of consciousness that will be able to make them identify that what they are doing is really wrong, especially in terms of approaches like what you said where they hold grudges because they are unable to accept defeat and this approach will clearly make them worse in the long run.
It might really that sound pretty basic or sound really that just in default on which awareness is really indeed that on different level into each person on which there are those individuals who could really be t hat able to make out some immediate decisions on the time that they've seen something in advanced about those probabilities on getting wrecked up with gambling and some couldnt really be just that able to do so since they are really that getting blinded with greed. This is why people fate would really be always reflecting out on how they do deal up with those things and how they do really make out those kind of decisions which it would be basing up into the situation. Knowing on when to stop? This might sounds pretty basic but this is something a very huge and difficult challenge into those people who had been dealing off with these things specially on gambling which majority couldn't really be able to stop mid way and would really be liking on continuing until they would be busted up.

Yes but overall we can conclude that most people will be able to reach their consciousness when they are really at a point of adversity that makes them feel unusual trauma, such as experiencing a significant amount of loss or experiencing a breakdown in their family relationship as a result of wrong gambling, I understand that regret will lead them to regret but maybe like the point we discussed above that each individual has a different level of consciousness so this determines how long they are stuck in a bad  situation along with experiencing many bad effects. Yes actually "knowing when to stop" is an easy action to do for people who gamble on the right path, or that means for those who have a correct understanding of the concept of gambling which is nothing more than a game of probability or a game of "possibility" which means that it is  always unknown whether you will win or lose again, but for some people especially those who are addicted they have a different mindset, one of the differences is because they put hope in a win so it is very difficult to stop and also very difficult to be able to ignore greed.

While I want to take a break I just withdraw my funds from gambling sites and try to pass my time on Facebook and/or YouTube. And it helps me to stay out of gambling. And I think only a few people may stay away from gambling until s/he have funds left to him/her.

If you are in a winning situation then obviously that is what you should do by preferring to withdraw the funds in the gambling site, this can make you enjoy the results of the gambling you do and after that turn your attention to other things such as watching youtube shows or swiping screens on some social media such as Facebook, but on the other hand only a few people are able to do this when they are in a winning situation, usually you may also know that for most people "greed" is a difficult thing to ignore when they are in a winning situation.

Instead of resting they continue with much higher assumptions and confidence and with the idea that they will be able to make a bigger amount, however greed is a bad action that should be avoided in gambling, I understand that there is a chance for you to get a bigger amount, but such results are very rare, and usually you lose everything, so this is why it is important to always apply limits to gambling activities whether it is in terms of budget or time involvement.
