121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: February 13, 2024, 01:39:03 PM
~snip~
If the gambler realizes how valuable certain amount of money is and he can have sense of responsibility then obviously there will be break when he doesn't have money, he will never force his abilities which can cause problems in the future.
But some gamblers do not have this awareness and they have let go of their sense of responsibility so they have the courage to borrow money just to be able to continue gambling.
Especially for gambling addicts, they will do anything to get money so they can fulfill their gambling needs, an addict considers gambling to be no longer about entertainment activities but as need that must be fulfilled.
Isn't this very sad, several times I have seen gambler facing series of problems of being in debt until they really feel like person in despair and of course this is mental stress and affects the mind.
From this feeling of sympathy, we have all been reminded from the start of what every gambler should do to be able to avoid these various problems, but in reality gambler will never be able to have good understanding and mindset before they experience ruin.
Many gamblers complain about what they experienced and the impact of gambling, but this cannot make other gamblers aware and things like this do not make other gamblers learn that they must avoid every problem that could occur.
Gamblers should have a sense of responsibility for the money they have and be able to use that money well rather than using it to gamble, which can waste all their money. But when he ends up spending his money on gambling and has the desire to borrow more money to continue gambling, he will not be able to survive in his condition because, in gambling, he will probably experience losses more often than wins, so he will also find it difficult to pay back the money. When he loses his money because of gambling, he loses his responsibility in looking after his money. Instead, he makes the problem even bigger by borrowing money, especially since he has to pay back the borrowed money. But we don't know what gambling addicts do because they may still have money, whether it's from borrowing or still money from other sources so that they can continue gambling. We can sympathize with what happened to them. But we also can't do anything, especially for those who have advised gambling addicts not to borrow money from other people because it will cause even bigger problems. And yes, it is difficult to change a gambler's mindset where they have gambled so often that they can no longer think clearly that their actions have violated their limits.

~snip~
That's what I mean, by them taking out a loan to gamble because they hope that by taking out a loan to gamble they can turn things around where they can get a win that can cover their losses and be able to pay off the debt they incurred previously. They don't think about how big the chances of losing in gambling are so clear, therefore it is very likely that they still won't be able to solve their financial problems by borrowing money to gamble again.

If they can allocate their finances well, maybe they won't borrow money to gamble. and in my opinion, if you don't have enough money, don't think about doubling it in gambling because that is the wrong idea, because there is a big possibility that the money you intend to double in gambling will be lost, although there will indeed be a win in gambling, but that doesn't guarantee it. they will get it, even if they want to double their money because they don't have money to survive and think they want to double it quickly, it won't work out well.
Those who take out loans to gamble will find it difficult to reverse the situation where they may not win but will increase their losses even more. Perhaps if they can get a big win, they will be able to pay off their debt, but we know that getting a win is difficult, and not many gamblers can get it. They have to keep trying, but if they keep trying, that doesn't guarantee they can win. So it's better for them just to use gambling for fun because it won't cost them too much money, especially if they don't have much free time. They will remember to stop their gambling activities immediately.

That's why we can allocate their money well for all their needs, including gambling, so they can fulfill everything well and not experience any problems. They also cannot double their money from gambling but can instead experience even bigger losses, so they must always remember that gambling must have clear limits so as not to lose a lot of money. They can win, but no one can guarantee when they will win. Many people will say that they will experience even more losses if they don't immediately stop gambling. When they don't have money, they shouldn't need to gamble but should look for a job that can make money because that is how they can do it instead of gambling where there is no certainty when they will win.

i am not gamble too much in a week or month. I spend a very busy time so i can gamble only on weekend and i just enjoy it. i am not gamble for any earning purpose. who choice gambling as a source of earning he can get addicted on gambling  because there intension is a big winning and get rich. this desire force them to gamble without any break. so they should be careful about this. otherwise It is true that they will suffer a lot
Yes, it is better to use gambling as entertainment in your spare time, and I agree with what you say that whoever chooses gambling as a source of income can become addicted to gambling and have the desire not to want to stop gambling. Those who continue to gamble will get deeper and deeper into gambling until they cannot realize that they are addicted to gambling and have even spent a lot of money. They want to make money from gambling, and that is why they continue to gamble continuously. It is difficult to stop them because they have fallen deeper into gambling. Yes, they will only experience bigger and bigger losses without being able to win and will even lose even bigger. They should be able to take a short break from gambling to avoid gambling addiction.
123  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress? on: February 12, 2024, 10:25:02 AM
I tried to do that once and the moment that I saw how much I've spent on gambling, I never wanted to do it again because it just makes me frustrated and as much as people don't like this idea, I don't like to look at the price of something that I'm going to spend because it just makes me doubt how much I want to spend my money and I really don't like to do that to myself. For those that do though, I admire you because you're organized with your finances unlike me that's almost always on a spending spree whenever I get my hands on a huge amount of money, it's a miracle that I still haven't touched my bitcoin just to spend it on something useless.
People will feel frustrated if they see that their losses have cost them a lot of money, and there may be a desire to recover them. But they know that it will not be easy to do so because they have the possibility of experiencing more losses, so the number of losses will increase. When the losses get bigger, they will become more frustrated and perhaps unable to accept it, making them even more eager to continue gambling. If this is the case, they will only get deeper into gambling and find it difficult to stop gambling, and they may even become addicted to gambling. That's what people should avoid when gambling, and they should always limit their gambling activities so they don't experience more losses.
124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to stop on: February 12, 2024, 09:40:37 AM
Practicing to become a responsible gambler is indeed quite difficult to implement, but this is for the good of finances so we have to really do it and this must be forced, because if we cannot force ourselves to become responsible gamblers we are on the verge of ruin which can happen. destroying our lives at any time so that we do not have anything good in the form of wealth
It is difficult to become a responsible gambler because it requires more practice, but it is something that must be done by those who want to enjoy gambling and do not want to get into trouble. By being a responsible gambler, someone will try to use gambling well and not excessively because they know that if they gamble excessively, it will only cause problems and can also make them lose their money quickly. They will not force themselves to gamble longer, which can make them forget to stop gambling, especially if they can get pleasure. That is why if they can gamble in moderation, they can still enjoy gambling well and get entertainment from gambling.

Yes, that's true, because without discipline in gambling it will only drain the finances we have, and of course this is not a good thing, gambling can drain our finances quickly but cannot reverse the situation quickly. Even though there is a chance to win, it is very difficult, perhaps only a few percent of the many percent gambled. The thought that they can only win or make money at gambling is what makes them unable to stop gambling, even though in my opinion even when they win they should be able to stop, especially when they lose gambling they should be able to stop gambling.

Well, that's the problem, they won't know to what extent they will feel satisfied with the gambling they do, if they don't realize that the gambling they do only brings defeat and loss then this possibility could destroy their lives. However, if there is no awareness, it is difficult to stop gambling. because in my opinion, to be able to stop gambling, they must first be aware that gambling only drains their finances.
Everyone certainly doesn't want to see their money drained quickly through gambling, so they must try to practice discipline and responsibility as well as other things necessary so that they can enjoy gambling and not experience problems. By enjoying gambling, they also have the opportunity to win even though they don't know when they can win. But at least, their goal in playing gambling can be achieved while winning, that is a bonus for them so they don't need to think about winning the gambling game because it is difficult to get. They have to change their mindset not to make money from gambling and only use gambling for fun with just enough money.

When someone can win, they should be able to feel satisfied with their victory, regardless of the amount of money they can win. But most people will still try to gamble because they hope to win more. That's where the real problem will arise when they decide to continue gambling. They can lose their money slowly without realizing it because of the temptation of gambling that will say they can win in the next round. But if they have good self-control, they will not want to continue gambling and will choose just to stop because that is the best thing for them to do.
125  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: February 12, 2024, 09:07:39 AM
When we have too often crossed the limits we set ourselves, we should have enough experience to start being aware of paying attention to better controls for playing.
This is difficult, but if we can exercise that control, we will become better gamblers. I mean financially good because it is not affected by gambling activities. and also good at managing our time. more out-of-control gamblers don't remember how much time they spent.
By having self-awareness when playing gambling, we can avoid mistakes and not exceed our limits because we know there will be risks that we will accept. That will only disappoint us because we have violated our limits, which can cause us to lose money. After all, we have lost at gambling. By having good self-control, we can remain conscious while gambling and will not try to use more money because that could cause us to experience more losses. We also have to be able to manage the time we play gambling because the longer we gamble, the risk of losing money increases, and there will be an increase in emotions, resulting in us becoming more eager to win from gambling.

Someone else  experience might help to know what are the possibilities and if we not ready to suffer from that same fate we will not do things the way it was done by the person who shared their personal experiences,  we have to be precise in keenly look for best practices to avoid getting controlled by our emotions,  it's tough but doable if you are well prepared and your focus  is in you.

I know that there are times that you will exceed but the point is if you can cope up and reset the process not to push for more and get deeply attached,  you can still be responsible after.
Other people's experiences can be useful for us so that we will not experience the same thing as that person. We can also avoid mistakes like that so that we can gamble comfortably, and we will be more careful in gambling, especially in using money and time. And we also have to control ourselves while gambling because that is a requirement to be able to gamble calmly and not exceed the limits. That is why we must continue to practice self-control until we can master it well so that we will not be tempted by anything we see in the casino.

Yes, there are times when we lose self-control because self-control can change according to what we experience. The important thing is that we can continue to practice self-control so that we can be better and responsible so that we don't fall deeper into gambling.

~snip~
Even though it is difficult, we must be able to fight these emotions and self-control so that they don't escape from within us because sometimes people who experience a lot of defeats often get emotional and can't control themselves so they make mistakes that are detrimental to themselves, such as gambling continuously so they can recover their losses increasing his bet so that his chances of winning are greater, even though things like this will only cause bigger losses and will make him even more annoyed because the losses he experiences are not getting better and are actually getting worse.

It's true that we have to learn so that gambling doesn't control us and by watching other people gamble or listening to their experiences we can prevent things that we don't want in the future, we have to be able to be responsible, disciplined gamblers and have limits when it comes to gambling, be good at managing things finances so as not to make mistakes like gamblers in general (gamblers who cannot control themselves).
Yes, we must be able to control our emotions well so we don't lose self-control. When we lose self-control, we can do things we never imagined before and use more money to gamble. Remaining aware of the dangers of gambling is what makes us try to remain aware and continue to learn self-control so that we are not tempted by gambling and can enjoy gambling as entertainment only. That's what we have to remember when playing gambling so that we can use gambling properly. We also won't be tempted to continue gambling when we can win a certain amount of money because we will realize that it is difficult to get and can cause us to lose all the money.

By learning self-control, we can prevent the temptation of gambling and will not let gambling control us because we know gambling can endanger our lives. We will always try to prevent excessive gambling, and with responsibility, we will always limit gambling activities so that we do not make serious mistakes like other people. Play gambling only in moderation, and you don't need to spend a long time, so you don't get into trouble.
126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: February 12, 2024, 08:10:28 AM
~snip~
Every gambler who uses gambling site, whether new customer or gambler who has been an old customer of the site, when starting new session on the gambling site, will always be shown notification to agree to all the terms and conditions of the casino before starting to bet.
It is clear that some gamblers will only agree by clicking on the approval sign before truly understanding and reading all the contents of the applicable terms and conditions.
I sure this is habit of gamblers who really feel lazy in reading the contents of the tos.
But this is mistake that gamblers make because the impact in the long term is the emergence of problem that may be quite complicated to solve, they don't know the terms and conditions so they have the opportunity to violate the rules.
Cases like this have happened several times and should make all of us gamblers aware that understanding and reading the contents of high five is very important for ourselves.

Apart from that, isn't money very valuable and we get it by working hard or doing business, so we won't be able to accept it if an error occurs which results in the account being frozen and the balance unable to be used.
Our obligation as customers is to avoid all existing regulations and always be responsible gamblers, gambling sites have provided what we want such as good service and also several bonus benefits.
From here we must be able to provide what we should do, such as being responsible gamblers and customers by not making mistakes that harm them or ourselves.
The casino always provides updates to all its members, both new and old, so that they can immediately check the updated terms and regulations and understand them well or ask the support service if they cannot understand them. Casinos don't want to be accused of being scam casinos, so they always make sure all their members understand the terms and regulations. If there is a problem later because a member does not understand the terms and regulations, the casino will explain its support service so that there are no misunderstandings for its members. We as gamblers must also understand that trusted casinos always provide important information about their casinos to their members so that they can adapt it to the situation and conditions of the casino. But many gamblers do not heed this notification and continue to gamble more deeply. As a new member, reading the terms and conditions is highly recommended so that there are no misunderstandings that they will experience.

We as customers will also try to always comply with the rules that apply at the casino so that we will follow the rules well and will not try to do something that could negatively impact our gambling account. But if the terms and conditions of the casino seem burdensome to us, we can look for another casino that is not burdensome for its members and stay at that casino to gamble. Casinos issue their terms and regulations, but we are the ones who choose the casino, so if we object to the terms and regulations, we can leave the casino and look for another casino. It will not burden us when playing gambling, and there is no compulsion to comply with the rules because there are rules that we think are burdensome for us. Casinos also will not force people to stay and play casino gambling because casinos know that in gambling, each gambler must choose their own casino to find the comfort they want to get.

~snip~
Although reading the terms and conditions of the gaming website is always obligatory, reality shows that relatively few individuals do so.
It seems logical that new players would familiarize themselves with the basic rules of a game before entering a casino site, as this would enable them to grasp how each game operates and what methods could work best for them.
And by being aware of the regulations, I believe that beginners are better able to decide how much to wager and when to quit because it is only natural for us to make costly mistakes when we gamble and occasionally misinterpret the game, which can result us in frustration or financial losses.
New players to a casino should make an effort to read the terms and conditions of the casino to avoid being unaware of its terms and conditions. Each casino has its own terms and conditions, so there will be differences in terms and regulations. We have to make sure we understand it so we don't experience problems we don't need to experience. By being aware of the terms and conditions, we will be more careful when gambling and know how to treat gambling. By understanding the rules, we can at least avoid violations that could occur due to our inadvertence, which the casino might still tolerate. But in any case, we have to be more active in understanding the terms and conditions of each casino.

What I think is that everything is a process in life, because for us to do and achieve certain things in life we need to focus that we Must do things correctly, in this order of ideas we must be very careful when we are playing and when We are practicing Certain things to do, for example when we are in a casino and we get very excited, because we have to do our Best to be able to have the best attention, and if a person does not control himself, then he can Obviously fall into Addiction and That is what should be Avoided , that is why when we are Looking for Ways for people to overcome addictions, the formula is not the same for some and for some and for others, so when we set out to stop doing something, it is not so easy. , it leaves its consequences, just if a girlfriend leaves a particular person, that is difficult, maybe for the person or for Her , so these Things are Difficult to overcome sometimes.

So when I say that things can be efficient in the casino game because we can make a difference, then in this case many ways can be generated to attack things in the addiction of the game, but leaving it as such, I do not recommend it. 'because it can lead to a relapse and if the person is addicted it can have a very strong impact, because the person will get even with it, so if we do it in steps, slowly but surely, it is the best, that is, if it is Leaving the game can be left little by little, not playing with such intensity, that is, if before we played with 200usd, the next time we will play with 100usd, and the other time we will play with 50 uas and the rest will be Used but in time , that is to say. Practicing a sport is the best thing you can do to cover the prevailing need to play, that's a great idea, obviously if you have the money to go to a Psychologist it's much better.
When we are gambling at a casino, we must always remember when to stop gambling to avoid losing. If you still have difficulty determining when you can stop gambling, you should not gamble for a while and choose to do other activities that are safer and don't lose a lot of money. Stopping gambling is a must to avoid losing a lot of money so that we can use gambling as entertainment only and not try to make money from gambling because that will be very difficult. Many people have tried to stop themselves from gambling, but many people have not been able to do so and instead choose to gamble more and more often. They find pleasure in gambling, so it is still difficult for them to leave gambling. Maybe if they run out of all their money playing gambling, then they can stop themselves from gambling, but that's not feasible because we have to spend all the money before we can stop gambling. But if we can have discipline in gambling, we will remember when to stop gambling so that we don't have to spend a lot of money before we stop gambling.

When playing gambling, we must have clear boundaries so that we don't violate those boundaries, which could cause problems of losing more money. We cannot rely on gambling to get pleasure because we still have other things that can also give us pleasure. This depends on how we choose the activities, and if we have chosen gambling as a way to have fun, we should always limit gambling activities so that we can still enjoy gambling as entertainment. That is the purpose of gambling that many people forget and don't remember when to stop gambling. Apart from that, it is because of the desire to win that people return to gambling when they have more money. And no matter how much money they have, if they don't have self-control, the money will soon run out on gambling, and they won't have any money left that could be used to gamble another day. They can spread the money over several days rather than spending it in one day because that means they have to spend more money if they want to gamble another day.

And it is very Successful if we want to achieve the best to do it but Basically what we do is Continue there. For example, the way I play sends me many things, the fact of not playing makes me think that if I can achieve what I want and what I am destined to win, but as long as I take care of my money, I am clear that slots because they are the best way to have fun, very popular, it is something that cannot be avoided, in fact some of the games that have the most fun in the world are the Slots , for Therefore , we must express these things at all times. I can say that when I play slots I get away from everything that People are used to  , because who is Going to Play as if the slots were therapeutic or a de-stress mechanism? How is your jguar fon als sltos a service that makes us feel better ? But if we all had a little bit of awareness, I think there Wouldn't be so many addiction problems , because addiction happens when there is a lack of money and we lack capital.

So everything starts there if we know how to manage Ourselves in a casino , we know that the trick is in the money, there is no other way, all the time we can see that things focus on that, for me there is no other way to do it but that to be able to have the best of all experiences, but of course not everyone thinks like that, some come with the intention of Multiplying money and even Being rich, it is something that is very difficult, it can happen but the truth is unlikely, I do not recommend thinking like that, if you want to earn money, it is a way but it is not safe, that is why the game is not a secure income, there is a lot of talk about slots because they have something that you really like, with little money you can can earn a lot, but this is due to its degree of multiplicity, it is something that can happen and something that is pursued a lot and that is very common.
There are many gambling games that we can use to have fun gambling, and that is what makes many forget their limits when playing gambling, so many of them end up gambling more often and experience gambling addiction. In gambling, if a person cannot control himself or cannot manage his money and time, he can experience a lot of losses and forget when he should stop gambling, which will increase the number of losses even more. When that happens, gambling is no longer a way to get entertainment or relieve stress but instead becomes a way to get even greater stress because by losing, we will only think about how to recover from that loss. Slot games are gambling games that can make people forget their limits, especially with the temptation to get a big multiplier so that they can't or even lose their limits in using their money.

We have to be able to manage ourselves when gambling so that we can prevent losing a lot of money, which will make us regret it after we finish gambling. We don't need to use a lot of money to gamble, especially if we want to use gambling as entertainment. Doubling your money from gambling is very difficult because losses will come to us, while wins will not come more often than losses. That is why when playing gambling, we must use safe methods to reduce the number of losses by always limiting the use of money and time. The longer we gamble, the more money will be used, which can result in more losses. If they want to make money, they should look for a job that can provide income rather than gambling, which will only use up all their money without any remainder. They must be aware of this, not gamble too often, and just use gambling as entertainment.
129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: February 12, 2024, 07:12:42 AM
Gambling at work is tolerable if you are working at home. At least when you're working at home you can contain yourself when you lose, you can make  yourself at ease because you know that you are in your own safe space. But if it is in office, I think it is hard because your workmates can notice your change of mood, either you are sad or angry, and it much harder to contain yourself because you are in the office. And yes, it can affect your performance. Because of your bad mood, you tend to get lazy and much harder to work.

So for me, let's prioritize our work first because it is our source of income. Without work, you have no money, when you have no money, you can't gamble. Gambling is just there for side hustle and for fun. Do not let gambling ruin your work.
Even though you work at home and can still gamble, you can lose your emotions if you lose. And when you lose, you will feel emotional disturbances, which will change your mood to do other things. You may become unenthusiastic about working and choose to leave it for a while until your mood returns. This will make you unable to work well because you have lost focus on your work, which can result in you not being able to complete your work.

You are right to prioritize our work first because, after all, from that work, we can get income to meet our daily needs. Meanwhile, playing gambling is just to get the pleasure that we can get at any time and is not bound by our routine. We can gamble after we finish work when we have free time so it doesn't interfere with other activities.
130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you quit gambling for a friend? on: February 12, 2024, 06:42:43 AM
For the sake of my friend's advice, I would listen but it was hard to promise to quit gambling.
Because I'd never find it wrong and harmful to gamble as long as we stick to the limit. Of course, addiction is another story that needs immediate actions and stoppage if possible. But as I see into myself, I wasn't in that situation and I don't go beyond what I am doing now. Gambling responsibly is always on my mind and I kept it that way.
If the gambler friend was so close to the gambler,the gambler will quit the gambling for his friend.But their was the exception in the gambling if the gamblers was not addicted to gambling.The gambling addiction was the biggest thing,by the addiction many gamblers use to loss their own money.The gamblers with knowledge doesn’t get into the addictive at any point.Some experience gamblers will play the game with the knowledge of not get into the gambling addiction at any point.If the money was loss,it could be recovered in other resources.The gamblers will stop gambling after the loss in the gambling site,because it prevents gambling addiction.
Perhaps if the gambler can control his gambling activities, he will still return to gambling sometimes even though he has said to stop gambling immediately. His friend was only worried about him becoming addicted to gambling because it could destroy him, especially if he forgot about other activities he had to do. Many friends may already be addicted to gambling and unable to realize and stop their gambling activities. This might disrupt the friendship between them, but he should realize that his friend only wants to save him from the dangers of gambling and also doesn't want to see him addicted to gambling. Certainly, a friend does not want to see another friend experiencing serious problems, so he will keep reminding him to stop his gambling activities.

The loop you describe is a financial and emotional nightmare. It sounds like you can turn on and off self-control. Not so. It needs consistent, dedicated exercise like any muscle

Funding gambling? Imagine stating, "I'll only drink poison on weekends." A bad tactic from the start. A unique concept: Why not invest in talents, knowledge, or the stock market instead of this bottomless pit? These methods yield more than a bet

Your self-control counsel is sound, yet it hardly scratches the surface. Understanding gambling addiction's psychological triggers, obtaining professional therapy, and using support networks are important. Gambling is deceptive, therefore we must educate ourselves and others and recognise addiction early. Losing oneself is more than losing money
I still need more practice to be able to control myself well because I feel like I often lose self-control when gambling. So with more practice, I think it can help me to improve my self-control so that I can prevent a lot of losses.

Funding for gambling is necessary so that we don't gamble excessively and can still control ourselves well. We will also try not to spend any more money if the funds we have prepared are almost gone or have even run out. We will also accept the results we get from gambling and will not try to recover losses if we lose.

In controlling ourselves, we need to find a method that suits us because each person's application will be different. They must be able to control themselves to adapt to the circumstances they face so that they do not gamble excessively. Gambling is full of temptation and if they are unable to restrain themselves, they will be tempted and continue gambling.

~snip~
Yes, that's right, gambling can indeed hypnotize their minds so that they continue to gamble by spending all the money they have because there are also wins that are said to be promising. In my opinion, all gamblers have the hope of winning, but this actually traps them in a phase of big losses or addiction. It's true what you said, even though they win it doesn't guarantee that they can stop gambling, but in my opinion the victory they get can actually make them more confident in gambling, where they will continue to chase the win until they actually get the win very big, but it only makes them suffer a lot of losses.

It's true that we have to have good self-control in order to avoid big losses we have to train and hone it well so that big losses don't occur. because many people experience big losses because they cannot control themselves well which causes them to experience big losses It's the same with investments,  if we don't have self-control then it's possible that bad things could happen.
That's why we have to be able to control ourselves when gambling so that we don't get hypnotized by gambling and can stop gambling. Gamblers do want to win, but many of them don't realize that to win from gambling requires luck, and if they chase luck, it might make them lose a lot of money. We cannot win easily from gambling, and if we continue to gamble, we can lose more money while we cannot win. However, if we win, we must immediately stop the gambling game so that we don't have any thoughts of continuing to gamble to get an even bigger win. Chasing victory will make us forget to stop, resulting in us experiencing losses that may become bigger.

With good self-control, we can avoid big losses and it is true what you said always to train and hone it well to avoid losing money. Losing self-control will result in us forgetting our boundaries, and of course, it will also result in defeat. We can't be like that because it's the same as what other gamblers have experienced.

I don't know how it is in your country but in my country, it is very difficult to see women spend their hard-earned money carelessly. When they go out on a date with a guy, they can spend the guy's money (here guys pay for everything) lavishly but when they go alone, they are very conservative. That is the general mindset of women over here. In gambling, women do not also take careless risk; you will never see them gamble with what they cannot afford to lose, at least the few female gamblers I know are like that. I felt that is a better approach to gambling that being reckless.
It is normal for women not to want to take excessive risks because they tend to always be careful before deciding something and will not act rashly compared to men. They will consider everything more first while checking what possibilities they can find. And if it was gambling, I don't think they would want to take too big a risk because even though it was money they earned from working, they would also take everything into account before they used it. Maybe they are also not interested in gambling because many of them know the dangers of gambling and even forbid their husbands or boyfriends from gambling. They don't want to see people near them lose money because of gambling, let alone become addicted to gambling.

Since when is some older people starts getting interest in today's technology? How are you introducing gambling to older people when they can't even operate a Gmail account not to talk of login into a casino website? Some stories are not making sense to me on here.

I have older people but none of them care about anything technology today, they don't even want to learn how to operate a smartphone, they believe that the world is in mess today because of all these technologies.

I believe that this place is full of fake stories, how can you introduce gambling to your father? They should be the one you are going to hide your gambling activities from, they will feel unease when they know about your gambling activities, because they mostly know better, they know that you can easily lose your way, older people always stay away from gambling, it's very clear that this is what's happening.
Many elderly people are no longer interested in things related to technology because they feel they are no longer able to keep up and prefer to do activities that are light and do not seem complicated to them. They will even look confused because something is happening with their device and will call someone who can help them.

But there could be elderly people who still want to learn much about today's technology and don't want to be left behind like others. They still feel like they are part of this technology, which is rapidly developing, so they are slowly learning it. However, introducing online gambling to elderly people is very risky because we don't know what could happen to them.

It's not necessary to take a break if you are a gambler who doesn't gamble every week, or someone who only games two days in a week, we have seven days in a week and if two days, with few minutes or a hour max is your gambling session what type of break will you need anyway?

I like telling people to always limit their gambling time and days, this is compulsory to put everything in the right order, you will have time with your own life and not wrap your head around gambling gains only, you will also be able to practice risk management and stand by your strategy.

Spending too much time on casinos is not good for you, take some days off by choosing one or three days in a week as your max gambling days, the other days that are not your gambling days are enough for you to think and do things right.
I think taking a break from gambling is necessary so that you won't think about gambling even if you don't gamble very often. It would be like a precaution that we take from gambling, which could become more frequent without us realizing it. Even though we rarely gamble, it can make us come to the casino the next day because we know that gambling can really tempt us to gamble again. This is what we have to be aware of when playing gambling so that we can really avoid problems such as gambling addiction, where we cannot predict when gambling addiction will come to us. We can only anticipate or prevent bad things from coming to us so that we can still feel comfortable when gambling.
135  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: February 11, 2024, 03:09:54 PM
Gambling an activity for fun also has the chance to turn someone's fortune. Calculated risk when taken in gambling can be the way to big wins from gambling. Who do you think should take more risk in gambling? The rich gambler or the gambler who is not yet rich.
None should take higher risk because what is applicable to the rich in gambling is also same with an average or a poor gambler, the only difference is that the rich can bear the outcome of his loss whereas the average man doesn't because his hopes is bestowed on a risk being taken but no matter what, no body should take higher risk because even the rich has higher risk of feeling the pain because a huge amount is at staked whereas the average man risk the little he has and when a rich man losses huge amount of money to gambling it affects their psychological health and due to high risk that are mostly taken by the rich people causes the rate of high blood pressure to be on the increase among rich people.
No one should take too high a risk because it would be a loss of a lot of money if they took a high risk. Each person must be able to control their risks by placing limits every time they gamble to reduce the number of losses. Both rich and poor people do not need to risk a lot of money, especially with the uncertainty of when they can win from gambling, so this will be a sign to ask them. If they continue to take high risks, it will make them experience health problems because every time they gamble, they have to worry about the question of how much they will lose this time. This will make them feel worried, and if that happens, gambling will no longer be a fun activity because they are already worried about losing. This is why we don't need to risk losing a lot of money because that is not our goal in gambling.
136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to stop on: February 11, 2024, 02:41:37 PM
I very much agree with you, if a gambler is not disciplined to know when to stop, by the time he goes totally broke and no sources to borrow money to gamble, coupled with the fact that you can't gamble on credit, then stop becomes inevitable, whether he likes it or not. But it doesn't have to reach that stage of losing everything before a gambler will know with regrets that they should've stopped earlier and saved themselves avoidable loses. Every gambler that plans to gamble responsibly must have a budget for gambling and be very disciplined not to exceed the set limit.
Undisciplined gamblers will only lose more money and can even go bankrupt because they will continue to borrow money from other people when all their money is gone. They don't even know when to stop gambling because they think they can still get a chance to win. And even though they still have a chance to win, they can't expect it, especially after losing so much money, because even though they win, they still lose more money. They are not aware of this and decide to continue gambling, and we do not know to what extent they will be satisfied. We should not copy what they do and continue to practice being responsible gamblers to avoid losing a lot of money.

It feels difficult to control yourself and your emotions when gambling, especially after getting several fairly large wins. So in your opinion, apart from learning from previous experiences and also learning from other people's experiences, what things can help us control our emotions and restrain ourselves, so as to avoid impulsive or careless behavior?
It is indeed difficult to control oneself and one's emotions when gambling, but we must continue to learn so as not to lose self-control. We can remain aware that we must continue to limit gambling activities and also understand the risks of gambling. Learning from other people's experiences is necessary so that we can know what they are facing and can learn from it and avoid making the same mistakes. And before we experience it, we can feel that it is similar to the experiences of people we know, so we can try to avoid it. By learning to control ourselves and our emotions, we can become responsible gamblers in gambling so that we can avoid losing a lot.
138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: February 11, 2024, 02:03:28 PM
~snip~
Well said, reading terms and conditions can be so tiring but is important. It is likened to buying a gadget and reading the manual on how to make use of it. To add to what you have noted, understanding the terms and conditions of a casino ensures that the platform complies with legal and regulatory requirements in the jurisdiction where the players reside. The importance of this lies in the fact that different countries have different laws and regulations regarding online gambling and by reading the terms and regulations, players can ensure that the casino operates within the bounds of the law.

In addition, understanding your right as a player in case of a dispute between you and the casino should also spur interest in reading the terms and conditions of a casino. You can also know the conditionality regarding claiming bonuses and promotions when it is given.
Yes, it does require a lot of free time to be able to read the terms and conditions, let alone understand them well. Understanding the terms and conditions of the casino gives us an understanding that we can know the rules well because there are differences between the players. There is still so much more that we must understand that we are often confused about understanding what it means. And that's why we can ask customer service so they can explain it to us in more detail.

Yes, you are right that we must understand our rights as players and what obligations we must fulfill when gambling at the casino. This is to prevent us from problems often encountered by other gamblers so that we can enjoy our time playing gambling.

It does take time to be able to read the terms and conditions of a casino, but it is really worth doing so that we can avoid making mistakes or accidentally breaking the rules.
You are the first person saying this, maybe you are a lawyer or a fast reader. But for many people, those terms and conditions are one of the hardest and most boring thing to read. Not only are they lengthy, they are highly repetitive thereby making it tiring to read. This is part of the reason many people just click the accept checkbox and proceed with their registration.
I completely agree with you that many people will find reading the terms and conditions of a casino difficult and boring to read. They will say that they don't have time to spare just to read the terms and conditions so they don't read the terms and conditions. They tend to think that all the terms and conditions of all the casinos they know are the same and nothing is different even though there are differences in terms and conditions between one casino and another.
139  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: February 11, 2024, 01:39:03 PM
~snip~
That's the thing.

The so-called "experts" will simply continue to guess at random, and always charge a fee.

Sometimes they will win, and sometimes they will lose.

People that win with their advice will think they are great, and the reverse for the people that lost.

But it doesn't matter because there is always more people getting into their pipeline, and since they always charge a fee, they can continue to operate, independent of their results.
An "expert" will always charge them every month because they subscribe to other channels to get their predictions so they can share them on their own channels. They will easily admit that it results from their predictions without mentioning that it results from subscribing to other channels. And yes, the person who wins will think he is great and will not want to admit that others are also great. And those who subscribe to his channel will bear the costs of subscribing to other channels so that the "expert" can still get his predictions. So we shouldn't be surprised if there are people who claim to be "experts" who share their free predictions with people and say they have a VIP channel.
140  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: February 11, 2024, 01:16:12 PM
Yes, that's how someone begins their gambling life, and each person has their own story. Many of them even become addicted to gambling because the ease they get in playing gambling can move them deeper into gambling until they finally become addicted to gambling. However, some people quickly realize that gambling can pose a risk of loss that is more serious than they could imagine. It has become common for those who gamble to become greedy and thirsty for a win, so they will continue to chase that win until they get it. They do not realize the danger they will face, losing a huge amount of money that cannot be recovered easily. Usually, it all starts with small things that look fun, but because the stakes are increased to make the game more tense, they experience a different sensation. And that is what slowly makes them become gamblers until now, and some even become addicted to gambling.
