21  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling losses are traps to new game on: May 20, 2024, 04:00:58 PM
A casino company will never operate at a loss. Before gambling, never forget that the casino systems you are gambling in are designed in such a way that their profits remain and the results are more in favor of the casino. While playing casino games you must be a lucky person because luck is very important here as the systems are designed in their own way and the result is definitely nothing but luck. I always say that if you are gambling make sure you choose a gambling category that requires you to have some skill in gambling. If a gambler gambles based on his own skill, he can never gamble and say that he lost because luck was not on his side. For example, a sports bettor who plays must bet on sports based on his skill. Because if you don't know about different teams, you can't bet about sports.

The knowledge is crucial, at least doing things like reading, analyzing and team review could help when placing money on sport games, yet it has no guarantee of winning the game. These skills as you mentioned helps a long way in teaching the player ways to gamble, it also keeps the gambler ahead of people who don't do any of these things, still doesn't mean the other players wouldn't win because they didn't analyse their bets.

Moreover, harnessing skills from gambling may include but not limited to money management, time limitations for slot players, and emotional self control. These things helps a gambler in all walks of life. Not just in the casino. That's a better knowledge from gambling for a person who is not interested in knowing about sports analysis. He'd be able to control how he wagers money into gambling. This will also put the player away from getting compulsive or toyed around with losses; playing more for the sake of losses. However, it's right that losing makes a player to go for more, yet with the control in place, the player wouldn't do that for a long period.
22  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How has big wins and jackpot stories affected your gambling habit? on: May 20, 2024, 03:48:45 PM
we know that apart from the fun that some gamblers enjoy while gambling, the majority of others gamble basically because they want to make money from gambling, and in doing this, I have come to notice that gambling stories play a great role in determining if a gambler will reduce his gambling, go more aggressive in terms of the amount used in gambling or even quite gambling momentarily.

I've read and watched stories of people who hit a big jackpot and from a first-person point of view, the first thing that comes to mind is that " I wish I was the lucky person" and the effect of such an experience has always been to keep trying with the hope that I might get lucky to win my jackpot.

I just want to know, How have jackpot stories affected your gambling routine?

Have you ever increased the amount you normally used in betting just because someone you know won big by betting with a greater amount?


I'd admit that at a time, for the sake of winning big, I was momentarily trying a strategy I had in mind to utilize long ago but hesitated to use it. That is the thoughts of winning big made me not to hesitate in giving the strategy a shot. I think the thoughts of winning big played out to be a catalyst which pushed me to try out the long awaiting strategy. However, it was just on a strategy not on money. Although it'll have to make me wager a bigger amount than usual. Yet, that doesn't mean I'd be going compulsively on achieving the big wins. It's all in me that some day it'll show up, don't know when it'll be.

Contrarily, I've never been in a situation where I wished I won just like the other guy next to me. Because, I know, somehow, the end of the road for the money, myself inclusive. I used to think of being a better person when it comes to handling the money properly, but have been opportune to understand how the jackpot works by learning from others. Then, it came to me that anybody can easily spend out all their winnings in a short period. That didn't or wouldn't stop me from expecting a jackpot, as it's part of the game and fun to hit.

As long as it is kept once a year trip to Vegas with a limitation on the total budget to spend, it should be good. Then there are those who go there and don't come back, which is a horrible thing.

For online gambling, the easy access to the site means more regular attendance from gamblers.

It's all there just to make things easier for the addicted gamblers. Those who don't gamble don't care at all about so many casino websites.

Yes, some players go to Vegas and don't return due to lack of funds. I've read of a man that got to a casino, with his wife just about checking in to the hotel, she received a call from her husband that they'll be going back immediately, he already wagered everything on a slot game. Such experiences also shows how people get carried away during gambling. Gambling is highly addictive, regardless of the settings; online or offline. Online gaming is just an optimized form of gambling that provides the player a casino on his palms, nothing else.

The behaviors and mistakes are similar. It's a modern entertainment I'd admit, because most players also derive fun through online gambling. The wrong aspect of it occurs per player. Generally, to some players, gambling is addictive, and some, it's entertaining. I would add that gambling has its definition embedded on individual players and the definitions are never similar for every gambler. Hence, to me, gambling provides fun and also challenges me to waste time playing games.
24  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? on: May 20, 2024, 02:41:12 PM
It really depends on the type of player. Some people are most prone to getting addicted on games like poker because of the social aspect. Others like the patterns on slots and chase the max win they have seen which is also very addicting.

Some other people think they will get lucky on docr or roulette and spend a lot of money there. I think the most addicting is video slots but nowdays you can find them in both casino that is land based and also online. Frankly the land based casinos also copy many of the games that are successful online and earn large revenues. So I'd say video slots online and also physically are the most addictive.

Contrarily, I don't think offline casino copied games from online casino. The machines you see in offline casinos had always been in video form before the integration of online casinos in the gambling world. However, don't know particularly if they're some new online games which was never in the offline casinos. Slots have multiple providers and hence would have varieties of gaming patterns, but I still consider them slots regardless of the graphics or how they look. Talking about addiction, slot players face a more tempting opportunity of getting addicted. Due to the nature of slot games.

Its fast results, easy to learn, and fast wagering method also helps in sticking players back on the machine for a long time. Thereby, exposing the player to compulsive gambling and then addiction. The other games like poker are mostly addicting in online casinos than the offline settings due to the social advantage as you mentioned. I don't think other gamblers would comfortably watch a fellow player in same table go compulsive without giving out a helping hand. Maybe after the game is over. On the other hand, online players wouldn't get such help due to the solo mode of online gambling. All player to himself, that's risky on the long run and mostly get the players addicted.
25  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: May 20, 2024, 02:27:24 PM
Despite the aggressive publicity on gambling around every environment lots of people still don't engage into gambling, due to the type of training given to them by their parent. Unfortunately, some parents tell their kids ill things about gambling which scare them away from the act. It helps but it's not right to tarnish the image of gamblers in your kid's presence. However, parents who gamble around their kids, also, are not getting things right because of the disadvantages this will cause in future on the children. We all need to draft a specific time for gaming especially when the kids are sleeping or away from the house. I don't seem to understand why some players gamble openly.

Does it mean their rooms are not enough for gambling. Kids are mainly trained to spend time in their own room or the sitting room. They rarely stay in their parent's room. It's always okay for a dad or mom to gamble in their private rooms for the safety of the children. While, still, educating them on the needs to stay clear from gambling and how rough it could be for young people. This is necessary because of the society we find ourselves, not all parents care about their kid's wellbeing, if we don't gamble in the presence of our kids, other people could be doing this, and we don't know who they are, if same kids from a home with such parental training spend time with ours. So, preparing the kids to repel on any advice from whosoever, regarding participating in gambling at a tender age, is important.
That's good if kids not involve into gambling because they already gets information from their parents that gambling can gives bad impacts to their lives so they will not gets into gambling. Their parents just shows the bad impact to their kids because they see many kids involve in gambling and makes their lives ruin because of gambling.
They don't wants to see their kids lives ruins too so they always guides their kids in the right track and makes sure that their kids really stay away from gambling. They will not shows to their kids when they playing gambling because they don't wants their kids follows what they do.
Parents can sits together with their kids and talk each other to have a warm relationships and makes they have a closer relationships. But the fact is not many parents can do this because many parents have busy with their works so they don't have much time with their kids.
That can makes their kids feels alone and will gets closer with their friends which can gives a bad impact to them. Parents can't educate their kids with right if their kids is not closer to them and their kids will have a rebellion to their parents and makes things worst.

That's a challenging aspect of such a societal problem. Most families handle two jobs just to meet up with their family financial responsibilities. Parents rarely get involved with their kids due to business and work. However, the workload doesn't occupy the whole day for a gambler. It's all about fatigue and tiring work activities that really separates parents from teaching their kids. Amidst the difficulty some gamblers who make out time still, to play games can funnel the energy towards tutoring their kids. Maybe make out time twice a week to help the kids stay away from wrong influence. Those who then due to whatever reason it is, gamble in the midst of their children are to be cautioned to stop it.

This won't be as a result of being busy in the office or anything else. It's all about negligence and a poor parental training. I do see them as people with symptoms of compulsive gambling. Kids requires consistent training to learn and once they do, It sticks to their brian for a long while. I could, myself, think of some early training received at a tender age, indirectly I was told about the need of saving money as a gambler. Due to a friend who was into a gambling activity that consumes his funds leaving him with no funds. So, instead of telling me not to gamble, my parents used the family friend as an example to teach us the bad impact gambling has on players.
26  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: May 20, 2024, 01:29:25 PM
At least with good or bad experiences from other gamblers, we can learn how we can carry out gambling activities wisely and always be careful. Indeed, not all gamblers will easily continue to immediately take correct and appropriate actions based on what they have seen from the experiences of other gamblers, because basically every thought and understanding within a gambler is not the same and this is determined by each individual. . If the gambler is addicted then this is very difficult to accept and do, but if the gambler is still a regular person then I think there is a possibility that he can apply this to gambling.
Holding on to the experiences from other gamblers is a nice means of learning, not in gambling. As you said, it depends on the individual and how he can adapt to changes through experience. However, things could change along the line and gamblers who are in trouble will learn to seek for help. When a player is in need of our assistance, not financially but emotionally it's our duty to take them to a better place where treatment would commence. I'd prefer running something like a first aid to see if it works.

Taking them on a different trip to a location where they wouldn't engage into gambling for a while. Or advise the person to hang out with old schools friends who could fix him into some other interesting emotional activities. Therapy would be a second choice after this and hopefully it'll work. Gambling is risky indeed, and not all gamblers are aware of the type of risk that's been talk about here. So, educating them on the risky factors like mental disorder, attached to gambling can help scare away the need for the player to go compulsive if he had that in mind.
27  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When I'm emotional, I LOSS! on: May 20, 2024, 01:08:24 PM
from the gambling system, there is definitely competition. You definitely know that when you lose, it causes you to suffer a financial loss, which makes it inevitable that from an emotional perspective, you become disappointed and it's hard to get out of your head, but it's a normal thing and the risks of gambling and you have to be prepared mentally, when losing makes it a burden on your mind and you always think about it. when I lose, but now I can control my emotions, I am more stable than before and it is progress for myself, making every time I gamble, the results are not bad thanks to my peace of mind and it is better now.
That's why I'll advise that before any individual goes into gambling they should 1st kill their emotions, before even making a decision on staking any amount of money in gambling you should be aware that the outcome of the event might be good or bad, that's the concept of gambling, you either win or lose, that's why before you stake your money into it you should consider the amount and if it's something you could afford to lose.

 The more reason why most get emotional when they lose their bet is due to the amount they staked imagine an individual betting with about $5k plus and end up losing such individual would feel very bad or even  bad and might even break down especially when they had the mindset of doubling their money through gambling to make more, that's why gamblers should bet with what they can afford to lose.

Gambling consists of processes or stages that a player need to bypass. It's normally usual to see a gambler who gets emotional after losing funds in the game. This has to do with the type of money the gambler wagers. A player who puts in few dollars wouldn't get emotional for losing the money. The only difference between gambling and purchasing items in the market is the physical presence of the purchased items, which can be sold back if the player feels emotionally drowned for purchasing an expensive product. Gambling losses has no other means of getting it back, except for trying again another day or session.

However, the chances of winning again remains slim and the player would have a tough time earning back the funds without losing some of it. Hence, when gambling it's mostly important to check carefully if the amount about to be wagered will affect us emotionally if lost. Same thing happens to the Op, he actually gets happy after winning and worried when he losses. Allowing ourselves to be this type of players is not wrong, as we are humans. But, overdoing it would get a player, probably, into trouble. Because human emotions controls how the person behave. Getting obsessed to get back the lost funds is one idea that could be fueled by feeling emotionally down as a gambler.

You have your answer mate and that is given and that is Online casino because the vote
stands 35-1 and that means there is only one from here that hyper focus in physical casino lol.

but comparing the hours given when in each casino? of course I spend  more in physical casino
you know why? because of free drinks that we shared by friends while losing our money haha.

Lol those compliments from the physical casino indeed seem to be an interesting reason why some gamblers spend time in the casino. Consuming those drinks a lot can get the player drunk and cause him more losses. However, it's just a good thing to go along with friends to the physical casino. It's all fun, but not surprised to see that lots of people chos the online casino over physical ones.

They are multiple reasons to it, one being that this is not the right place to make such comparison. A lot of online casinos exist online and everyone here prefer doing things online. Assuming in a place, where it is made available, a good number of offline gamblers you'd notice a difference in the results. Online casinos also provides easy access to the casino and doesn't require much effort to begin. I mean nobody teaches a new gambler how to wager his money online. It's all simple and the process isn't ambiguous.

(5) DON'T LET GAMBLING INTERFERE WITH YOUR WORK OR WITH YOUR DAILY RESPONSIBILITIES.


a gambler must understand their job and what their responsibilities are. they must be able to prioritize their work and responsibilities above their gambling, because that is what is most important. because when a gambler prioritizes their gambling compared to their work or other responsibilities it will become a problem that can impact the gambler and also those closest to them. many gamblers have experienced dismissal because they gambled inappropriately, and other gamblers should take this as a lesson that they must understand their responsibilities and not need to prioritize gambling.

It's a wrong choice to pick gambling over our working activities. I've faced such challenges in the past, after gambling, during work I get tired. Such things made me to stop gambling much during the weeks, so as to focus on my working ethics. The misconception from many players is that gambling, to them, seem to offer more money than their work. These circulating false thoughts amongst many players have pushed lots of players to lose out focus on their work. Gambling is exhausting, not just on money, but energy.

The strength that would have been used to work efficiently in the working place then diminishes drastically. Thereby affecting the employee's quality of work. It could reduce his credibility in the office. On the other hand, taking loans to gamble is a wild behavior and a gambler shouldn't pick up this means of gambling. As it could lead to a painful life situation. Who will pay off the debt if the gambler doesn't win? His family of course. That's a form of building tiresome troubles for the family. And diminishing their finances in large scale, could cause the people involved, some anxiety. Taking loans to gamble also is addicting. I think it's super good to be contended with what we own as gamblers. No need going over our financial threshold.
30  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to stop on: May 20, 2024, 12:13:12 PM
But I don't think that a gambler will want to quit for entirety because no matter what reason we have, we'd still be back and try to chase losses and to win some as well.

That's the fact. There are some gamblers, who no matter how hard they try, get back to chasing losses even after they have already lost more than their budget.
Expecting such gamblers to quit after some time is hard. Quitting gambling at the right time needs strong will and discipline.
A person who follows his rules is the one who can control emotions and make the right decisions whether it be related to gambling or any other thing for that fact.
Gambling should have a stopping time, but quitting is not simple. Every gambler stops at a given time, some would choose to end the game when they are tired or have something else to do. While others wouldn't mind stopping when their bankroll is exhausted. Personally, I prefer to stop when they is need to handle other tasks. Maybe exercise my brain or build a better strategy. Gamblers who are not comfortable with stopping when needful, may get into problem.

It's also an insidious behavior which later on puts the player into a more severe problem. I think gamblers should be cautious of the type of choices they make regarding a stoppage time. Because the behavior develops gradually and then occurs consistently. Just like in chasing losses, the player doesn't get compulsive immediately he starts going after his losses. Sooner the problem begins to escalate in the player's brain causing him more troubles on the long run. Hence, gamblers are advised to stop at the right time, not when they've exhausted their bankroll.
31  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Casino Community Service Possible? on: May 19, 2024, 07:41:01 PM
I acknowledge that some casinos are indeed resorting to launching anti-addiction campaigns as a way to deal with problem gambling. The effort involves detailed analysis of addiction-related aspects and establishment of partnerships with clinics for community-based conferences at state levels. It is not a legal requirement for all casinos, but it is an initiative that some are adopting as part of their social responsibility.

Moreover, there are certain casinos that offer donations to the most affected populations by various global issues such as war. This can be seen as part of their community service. Although not all casinos take this path, there are some striving to make a positive contribution back to society. Therefore, I find these actions depict that there are some casinos which do take interest and involvement in the community seriously.

Aside that it'll help the publicity of the casino positively, the impact of helping addicted players in the community is quite broad. Most addicts after getting revived through the help of the casino will still go back to gambling. But, may be, this time, responsibly. A lot of compulsive players also don't get to afford therapy sessions, but with the help of casinos lots of willing addicts will get cured. Allowing them unwatched or uncared for, will bring more trouble to the society or community where they inhabit.

It's also a better moment to correct the perspectives of non addicts to avoid completely compulsive forms of gambling. On the other hand, casinos in multiple numbers could be interested in rendering this help like their competitors, but not all casinos are strongly firm. Some could go bankrupt if they don't carefully make out the best time to render the community service. Running a casino is not simple. So, I don't expect lots of them to join this notion of giving back to the society. Yet, I'm impressed with the ones who have decided to help the addicted gambler in their own little ways. It's most appreciated.
32  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Naturally Chase loses in gambling.. on: May 19, 2024, 07:17:08 PM
As you've said, It is a natural act from a gambler and ideally they want to gain back all the money thay they have lose. I mean, who wouldn't want to try to recover from their losses? everyone's already did it especially if they can't accept the fact that they already used up all the funds that they only have. We can say that greed is the major reason why people continue doing gambling because there's an instances that a person already won but because of greed, instead of gaining additional money, they ended up having zero in their pockets, So it is highly advisable to check ourself and learn how to stop when we already won.
In life, they say that there are also bad times apart from the good times. People who have heard and believed on it are the ones who don't try anymore to recover their losses but I think it can also be subjective and there might still be things that are more worth winning and they are more possible or the risks on them are not that big enough. I think a lot of experienced gamblers are also not attempting to recover their losses anymore. Greed might also be different from simply avenging our losses.

There are truly people who are like that. They think they are superior and can't accept any types of defeat. There are also non-addicted gamblers but are only willing to risk it all in order to earn more than just coming home with an already sure small amount of money. There is no need to worry about them.

To my surprise, some gamblers claim to be experts and feel their strategy is the best in beating the house. But they continually loss out a lot of money in gambling. Yet, they persist on trying their strategy. I get disappointed to find gamblers who still think of a strategy that guarantees consistent winning in gambling. Such believes are caused by influences from other gamblers who claim to have won big using a specific strategy. Greed is a factor but deceits from people who sell those strategies can also be another factor which affects the way some players choose to chase losses.

New players also fall victim to such false methods of gambling to generate steady income. Venturing into gambling for the first time with such information as a backup is wrong. And causes more trouble to the player in future. Hence it's quite important that a player focuses on managing his times and restricting his moves from going after their losses. Also accepting that more money can be lost in gambling, will help the player rethink his moves before placing another bet.
33  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An interesting story and experience of a gambler on: May 19, 2024, 06:54:51 PM
That's what you called greed, the person in the post experience the luxurious life of having more money but the thing is he didn't think much and spend a alot in so many things, it can't be helped maybe he is just fullfilling his childhood wants or dream but the thing is the most practical is that the person in the post should have some money for investment or anything that could make his money grow, execpt gambling, see that example because of the taste of winning a lot of money drive him to gamble more in order to win again, little they know is that the more you have the taste of winning in gambling the more you will want to bet more, see rhe example, from a lot of money to none, its because they didn't learn to control themselves and let the greed and desire take over and that is a common mistakes fron those new in gambling.

You are correct in what you just said and that is why we always advice everyone to seek for help or support from an experience counsellor, families or friends to help them or preventing them to fall a victim, because with the help and support will make one not to hastily make decision when they win and wants to have quick money through the means of gambling which is bad and might leads to destruction if their dreams doesn't come to actualization.

It's mostly rare to find a gambler who could control having a jackpot. The player above seem to be possessing such an amount for the first time. So, those things which he ever thought of having, he has to possess them even if he doesn't need it. Looking at the run down of how he spent the money, you'd notice how poorly organized he was with the money. That's not his fault. Hitting a whooping amount of money with no backup income to regulate how the money is being spent will cause excessive expenses.

I would add that some jackpot winners even go as far as resigning their work and focus on spending the money and gambling. Investment thoughts rarely show up, the player expects another big wins in few days. No investment will generate, immediately, such an amount like the jackpot or big wins. People who can control themselves from recklessly spending such an amount already has an experience with handling a big amount of money.
34  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 19, 2024, 06:35:13 PM
hiding gambling is based on your own understanding within your environment so many people who hide and the Gamble they do that based on did not like people to notice that yes there are a gambler I have not seen anything wrong keeping gambling in secret on your own so I basically known gambling is all about what you planned for and what you want to achieve
Keeping gambling a secret from other people is a very natural thing even though gambling site owners actually really want more people to gamble so that their gambling place can be known by many people. Because sometimes the people we keep secrets from are also gamblers, even though maybe they don't gamble in the same place as we have been doing all this time. But still, if there is someone who doesn't want himself to be known as a gambler, then he starts to create walls between other people about this, even though for me this is a normal thing and doesn't need to be done as long as the environment we live in is still safe enough.

Gamblers who secretly engage into gambling are not making any other mistake than isolating their gambling habit. Which idea, is not good and could affect the player in future. This is necessary, because gambling addiction doesn't give a warning before it affects a player. However, the need to stay hidden when gambling can be to help other non gamblers to stay away from gambling. They are some people who would know about our gambling habit and will join immediately. Hence, it's crucial to play where nobody will see us only when we have such purpose of safeguarding unqualified people like kids from engaging into gambling. It's also good for a player to share his gambling habit with his friends, expecially fellow gamblers. Who can relay any trouble that arises in future to the gambler's family.

Yeah right, responsible promotion helps to avoid getting more people to this alluring offers, though we all knew that promoters are all after with the potential profits that they will gain from the site that they are working, it's more on referrals or an actual offers from the casino to bring more people to use the platform. Discovering about the player's addiction is the most work. As he'd keep it a secret from acquaintances.

We don't have any control on how this streamers will promote the site and most of the time, we also don't have that capabilities to monitor our love ones from time to time.

It's something that we really need to extend our hands if we want to protect those young audience and the people who we care about.
Isn't it harder currently when nobody is easily watched or observed when gambling. It was easier before the institution of the online gambling platforms. Today, most addicts struggle alone due to the  isolated life they lead. Staying all in doors and wagering away money. So, working on the limitations, it has to be physically done not online. Addicted players don't have the luxury of reading articles on ways to avoid compulsive gambling. The streamers are only executing their tasks and expects to earn bigger amount from the casino to easily fund the next video.

Young people only need to obey the rules. Someday they'll hit the appropriate gambling age for their country. Those kids or young people is surrounded by gamblers contents. They'll hardly be a to stop young people from seeing those ads. Thinking of it now. Because of the different algorithms on those medias. A very viral post can be passed across a wide range of people including those who never configured their gadgets to see gambling contents on their timeline.

Every result comes with a risk, so that is not something even in gambling or some aspect of life so you have to risk instruction to see how the result is going to turn out for you. It’s not that easy I believe Risk is much but all I want to do is I will pay the ricks and it will be a calculated risk I want just gamble just for fun or even when I I am sure that I will win, but I still lose. It’s not just the end. I will just try again because there is no easy way out there to make money you have to take the action

Calculated risks is quite beneficial, it inspects the habit of spending in gambling. Reckless gambling I think involves  uncalculated risks. Gambling operates against the player's aim to earn big and makes the process hard for the gamer that he'd find it difficult to take the right risks. Gamblers, expecially beginners, who don't mind the importance of observing all their gambling expenses will lose a lot in the process. Any gambling risk that turns around making more money is a wrong risk that can mess up the finances of the player. When gambling it's always crucial to focus on staying away from such risks.

Some players feel or are confident, or convinces others that their strategy 100% guarantees winning big in gambling. Such things are false and doesn't work. The house is already in charge of the game. Risks of wagering huge amount of money and hoping to win,  is not right. While we wager it's a fine thing to level the results.  Hold a bit of control. No casino is designed to also win 100%. The little chances players get should be used intelligently. An increase in losses should be followed with a brief break.

Even though gambling education has been around for a long time, unfortunately it has not reduced the percentage of gambling among teenagers and shows that it is not very effective in preventing the rise of gambling among teenagers. It is not easy for us to give advice to the younger generation, especially in this day and age where almost everything is online, so it will be difficult to prevent children from gambling because every time they hold a smartphone, advertisements for gambling sites will appear on their smartphone screen, whether intentionally or not, and this is a strong influence for them to start with gamble.

The educations available still didn't make positive changes in reducing the rate of users or consumers. An activity like gambling  is widely accepted in the society that the educations available wouldn't get half the publicity of gambling. Most times it increases the publicity and the rate people want to try it. Provided they've seen gamblers that have made money in the game. Their trust would be on what they see, not what they hear in classrooms.

You'd notice a high rate of people who pay deaf ears to risk, all for the sake of money. Assuming these people carefully attend classes to genuinely change or stop a gambling habit, a huge impact would have been made in the lives of young people. Learning requires interest. If the students are not deeply interested in a specific class they would learn or practice what is been thought.

How much would a person need in order to retire?
I think the people who could retire from their gambling winnings are those who won the lottery, but even for those people they need to manage their funds well.
There are so many people who once had a great fortune or been a millionaire, but ended up losing it all due to their fund management.
If you couldn't handle your money well even if it is a million you would just lose it.
In my opinion, this really depends on a person's target when they win. If they have won according to the target they have set, they will stop gambling, but this is very difficult for those who are addicted to gambling, but for those who are not addicted. gambling will of course be able to do this and they must be able to manage these funds well as you said, it is very true that if they cannot manage them well, of course they will not be able to win the winnings for long.

It'll be hard to stop gambling after winning big. The whole time will be spent on luxurious life with gambling inclusive. Only a few players will quit after hitting the jackpot. I'm also thinking of where the player will retire to, as the impulse to play once more would come stronger on the gambler shifting his attention from quiting gambling. And make him gamble to earn bigger than he already possess. Determining the exact moment or the type of amount that would be enough to retire a gambler may be hard to know. Because it's almost impossible to retire from gambling.

The emotional impact gambling develops on the gambler makes it hard to forgo or quit. Although gamblers promise themselves to retire after winning a specific amount of money. But when that lucky day arrives, the money that seemed big in the past would then get ordinary in the eyes of the winner. Everyone act as though they wouldn't waste money like a jackpot winner who went broke. Yet it's a natural occurrence and could happen to anybody. The casino is also sure of this, that's why they comfortably hand out those wins, knowing it'll get wagered back to the house.

Both gambles, I see some rich people who still gamble beyond what they should, despite still having a lot of funds leftbif they lose, they feel not too bad or get into a bad financial crisis unlike a poor man who tries to keep his winning streaks because he sees it as part of an opportunity to earn profit. A rich whose balance is worth about $100m and decides to gamble with $100k and eventually lost, that is just a percentage of his money he feels no impact compared to the poor man who sees it as a huge money and might not dare to gamble if he had such money to stake.
Of course, people who gamble are not only poor people, rich people also gamble, it's just economic limitations that make poor people feel more at a disadvantage than rich people who have bigger finances than poor people, so even though rich people gamble even with the amount they think Poor people are quite a large amount, in fact for rich people it is not a big amount of money for them and even losing that money is not a big problem.
Poor people risk their money in the hope of changing their fate but in reality their fate gets worse if they are irresponsible in gambling and risking the finances they have.

Rich gamblers undergo similar troubles with the low income players. Gambling as a high roller have its downside. What will happen to a rich man with the amount you mentioned above chasing losses? The whole money will almost get exhausted in space of few months. Gambling risk to me is a way of gambling for money without observing the basic rules for gambling responsibly. However, to us, the rich player appears to have backup and safer than the low income player in such matters. As the low roller easily runs short of money faster than the rich player. Limitations plays a vital role in gambling, and when a player doesn't abide by the rule of limiting his gambling session he'd get an excessive gambling habit, terrible enough to diminish his wealth with no warning.

It doesn't matter how much the player owns or possesses. In other words, rich players also prefer wagering big, the player can wager the 100k at once, then deposit more. Imagine losing that amount up to a million before the day runs out. Wouldn't it be enough reason for the player to try again, as he can't forget all that amount. And the tricky aspect of gambling for high rollers is that they think a single game would recover all they've lost. So they tend to wager more, increasing their risk of getting compulsive. When that happens, it doesn't matter whether the player wins or not. He'd wager it anyways.

When viewed in terms of convenience, this online casino is easier to play than a physical casino, because indeed online casinos can be accessed only by using a cellphone and of course now most people spend their daily lives using cellphones and internet connections. Interpun facilitates all things including gambling. But indeed with those who do online gambling, of course, their goal is to get a win, with the more often they do online gambling it can show that they are hungry for the victory they want to get, because if you say for fun I think that is only a small possibility because the fun in my opinion is at the point of winning.
With physical casinos, which can be said to be gambling in physical casinos for fun, it makes sense, because with each person's different perceptions, it is possible that some of them just see other people gambling and get a win, maybe they will feel happy, but obviously if they themselves get a loss, of course it is not fun, especially in physical casinos we can meet many people and maybe make new friends.

Convenience easily destroys the gambling patterns of most gamblers. Due to the ways people now wager money online, even during sleeping hours. There are times players are not energized to gamble but, due to the portability of online gambling they'll wager some games. Without thinking about their moves due to fatigue, the player will lose out more money. Offline gamblers, some, prepare to the casino to have fun and don't overdo this due to the distance.

Online gamblers increasingly wants to achieve fun when gambling, but don't actually get it due to the availability of the game just in their palms. The fun will immediately leave, while the choice of money begin to develop. Offline gamblers peacefully sleep at night, convenience simply takes away a full night rest from most online gamblers due to portability. Hence, online gamblers, I assume, should have enough self control to battle such urge to gamble always. In a nutshell, it's rare to always get fun from something that lives with us.
