2261  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: December 06, 2023, 03:21:29 AM
That's simply because the gambling was programmed to be in favor of the casino rather than the gamblers/players.  What mrvels me more is the fact that gambling was never this way before. Back then it was more of skill than knowledge, if you're good with analysis then you'll be sure to make more wins and don't have to always rely on luck, but beats me how things just magically changed and one can't rely on their skills anymore. Now, no matter how good you are with analysis and predictions, your chances of winning are still very slim as you tend to mostly depend on luck now.
Gambling has developed to be more advanced than a few years ago, especially with the existence of crypto casinos, which are also well-known and popular among crypto users. And indeed, the casinos will get more profits than the gamblers so gamblers cannot expect to get big wins more often. And if you have knowledge of sports and know how to analyze a match, you can try betting on sports betting so that you can win. Sports betting is different from other gambling games because sports betting requires skills to be able to analyze matches and find teams that have a higher chance of winning than other teams. And with the analytical skills you have, you already have luck because you can find a team that can win against its opponent, which can increase your winning percentage even though you still need luck.
2262  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Include Or Always Include Gambling In Your New Year's Resolution on: December 06, 2023, 02:51:02 AM
It just so hilarious how people will put gambling to their new year plan, I think some people still don't understand what it means to gamble they keep see it as one way of getting financial support from and it is just a game for fun that if you win you make money out of it, and if you place gambling that way you won't have any problem even with addiction. And new year plans are suppose to be like a yearly budget of things you want archive mostly in term of finance so because every end of the year their should be a plan map drawn of how you want to execute your plans. People that annoy me the most are does people that are addicted, they are so consistent that they just want to make billions out of gambling with always a very hope of winning and at the end of the day they start selling their property.
Actually, it's not funny because it depends on each person's plans for spending next year and maybe they already have the necessary preparations. However, they should not focus on gambling and include it in their future plans because it can have an impact on their finances and also their mental health. If they don't realize that including gambling in their plans for the next year could endanger their finances, they could suffer a lot of losses. They should start changing their mindset to not think of gambling as a way to make money but only as entertainment and getting pleasure. Trying to change their mindset can keep them away from the effects of gambling addiction so that they can use gambling as entertainment and not gamble excessively.

Me too although I have a more no New Year's resolution approach rather than only just about gambling, I feel like those resolutions are bound to be unfulfilled or broken at the first month or two of the New Year so I just stopped doing it altogether and just go for what I want to do, no more promising myself that I would do this, I just do it. Gambling would still probably a thing for me but as soon as my career improves and I make more money and can't afford to spend more time for leisure, I'll probably get less and less plays gambling but who cares? I might've subconsciously created a resolution that I would limit if not stop my gambling altogether and I just don't know it yet.
Yes, it's better if we replace it with a resolution approach that is more likely to enable us to achieve it next year. We can only use gambling as a way to get fun and entertainment so we must be able to look for other activities that provide more benefits. Maybe we can focus more attention on making money from other places so that we can achieve our life goals. Gambling is and will remain an entertainment and not a place to make money so we must remember that we should not gamble for too long, especially if we want to reduce our gambling activities in the next year. And at least we must be able to exercise better self-control so that we don't experience gambling addiction. Maybe this year we have gambled more and have spent quite a lot of money so next year, we should reduce our gambling activities.

Environmental factors can cause children to fall into things that are inappropriate for children their age. Apart from preventing gambling habits that are often carried out by parents, children also need supervision in their playing environment. Children adapt most quickly to something new, at first they just try it, then they become addicted to everything they do. Parents must be more active in supervising all forms of their children's activities so that they do not do things that could harm themselves and others.
Yes, that's true because an unfavorable surrounding environment can have an impact on children's development so parents must provide more supervision over their children. Parents should start paying attention to who their children hang out with and try to communicate with them or at least want to know who their children's friends are. Most parents don't really care who their children's friends are, where they live, who their parents are and so on. By knowing what their children are doing, parents can at least pay more attention so that their children don't take the wrong path as they grow up. With guidance from parents, they can keep their children away from things that are inappropriate and inappropriate.
2264  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: December 05, 2023, 10:15:56 AM
we must also recognize that those that are struggling the most and are earning less money should be the ones making the smallest bets...

Actually they don't need to bet because of they are struggling, that means they have a problem financially and they could not afford to bet. What would happen if a person who's not making enough money and losses in gambling? Very simple, he'll struggle more and might have bigger problems because of gambling, we don't want to see that as gambling is suppose to be a fun activity, and if there are people who would like to try their skills if it will work, at least those people knows how to manage the risk, and it starts with their financial capability to gamble.
If someone still has financial instability, he doesn't need to gamble, and it's better to just save his money rather than have to lose his money after gambling for a while. In gambling, a person can win but he can also lose, but he may experience more losses than the number of wins. That's why he should think twice about allocating funds for gambling and if he feels that it could harm his financial position, he should not gamble at all. He can wait until he has extra money that is not used for his daily needs so he can gamble according to his abilities. That's the point if someone can have good self-control so that he knows when he can gamble and when to stop his gambling activities.
2265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: December 05, 2023, 09:41:16 AM
Well, with respect to the experience of many, we agree that things when they try to see the casino as an option for fun, that is the right thing to do, with respect to the vision of other people who perhaps go for the first time yet. casino is different, they see a casino as the infallible option to make money, and yes, money that can be the solution for many to be able to do it well, but it is not like that all the time, because luck is what plays the factor Important in all this, this means that when we are doing many things within a casino we cannot and should not lose focus, because if we lose our horizon, we can lose our money, and that is quite sad, losing money in the casino. casino is not good, and we only hate losing what we are willing to lose, because if we do it that way, we know very well that it will not affect us at all because we know that things can be quite good later, we lose some money that was what we We were willing to lose, it does not interfere with our daily life.

All of us who have had some experience in the casino know that not only in the good streaks does the terrible problem of addiction begin, a good streak, a bad streak is not what we want to affect us, the bad streaks, good streaks are normal in a casino, but what we must learn and it is very difficult to assimilate is that when we have won, and then we continue making bets, and we lose, well we have to stop and not lose anymore, because we What comes next are losses, that is the basic thing we should know, what we should learn, there is no other way, we should not be so stupid, we are people who should think about what is best for us, it is better to be with money than to go out without money, obviously passing the KYC requirements and all that is now so mandatory, but the principle of the game, we must control ourselves.
People really have to use gambling as a place to have fun using a certain amount of money and as long as they can limit their gambling activities well and are not tempted by anything in the casino, they will be fine and can enjoy their time gambling. But when their minds change from just wanting to get pleasure from gambling to wanting to make money, they will no longer be able to enjoy gambling as they should. They will only be triggered to get or chase that victory and will continue to try to chase it until they succeed in getting it. They will not realize that it is difficult even if they have to use more money to chase victory. Gambling can give gamblers a win, but gamblers should not think of gambling as a place to make money. If they have won but don't immediately stop gambling, they may experience problems and lose all their money.

The experience we have gained from losing at gambling should make us more mature in our behavior so that we can reduce the number of losses so that they don't become bigger. We must limit our gambling activities more because that is the only thing we can do to reduce the number of losses and also prevent gambling addiction, which can come at any time. Experiencing a loss after winning is painful and feels like a heavy blow to us so we may feel that we have to try to recover from the loss by depositing more money. But if we could think that it was not necessary to do it because it would only lead to more defeats, we would not try to do it. We will try to accept the defeat and will try to reduce the number of defeats so that they do not become bigger.
2266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: December 05, 2023, 09:18:39 AM
You are right, things when it comes to casinos you have to have a lot of maturity, both at the time you make the deposit and at the withdrawal, and with respect to withdrawal there are many problems currently, because most of the casinos try to give up , but none of them warn that if the KYC requirement is not met you cannot make any withdrawals, and that is something that has become problems and dramas for many, both gaming and casinos, because there are many who do not care. I like this type of conditions and what they do is complain and complain about the situation, for this reason, I have always said that a person who does things to win in a casino, before depositing, must verify the veracity and authenticity of the casino It should also be verified that the casinos have very well established the requirement that if the KYC is not completed there is no withdrawal, these are things that are quite difficult for some, especially for those who are lovers of privacy and anonymity, and Apart from the mixers, all this is chaos.

Now it seems that the things that come with becoming more anonymous are getting more difficult, for this reason we as good players must study all these things, and of course be quite assertive, mature in what we do within a casino, everything has been done. Since there is a big problem of addiction in many people, so this must be controlled, on many occasions I have seen something that people always seek to have a better experience in casinos, but with the money they have they do not know how to control it, and the Casinos are not entities that control money, what interests them is that they go and play, in fact one of the things about us as players is that no one can control the money they have to play, because that depends on us, there is no On the other hand, the Responsibility is all ours and that is why casino gambling should always be done with great Responsibility.
Yes, we must be wise in gambling and not let ourselves be provoked by emotions that can change by the results we get from gambling. But it is true that now casinos will ask for KYC from gamblers, especially for those who have won a lot of money, especially with the recent mixer cases that have occurred. Casinos must always be alert to matters related to illegal activities. The casino will ask the gamblers to verify their accounts to ensure that the gamblers are completely free from any illegal activities so that the casino will not get into trouble with the government, which always keeps an eye on the casino. The government's supervision of casinos will become even stricter because the government also does not want there to be cases of money laundering using other businesses so the government will tighten its regulations on all online and offline businesses.

And for those who still want to earn or make money from gambling, you should really think about whether it is worth continuing or whether they should look for other ways so that they can make money. There are still many other places they can use to make money but it depends on their willingness to look for it and try to make money. Now, they should only use gambling as entertainment and play gambling in moderation rather than getting into trouble from gambling because they can lose control of themselves in gambling. Most people who gamble have lost control of themselves so they experience a lot of losses and some even go bankrupt. There are still other things they have to pay attention to while gambling, which can cause bigger problems if they are not aware of them.
2267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Include Or Always Include Gambling In Your New Year's Resolution on: December 05, 2023, 09:02:03 AM
I don't have any plans related to gambling because for me, gambling is just entertainment, and I don't need to be too serious about gambling. I better make a plan of what I will do in the next year and try to achieve it. Gambling is not a lifestyle that must be done continuously, especially if it is to make money from gambling. That is inappropriate thinking because we will not be able to make money easily from gambling. But I will probably still gamble as usual, and I will try to limit my gambling activities as before. And I think I've done well this year, so I'll still do the same thing.
2268  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gambling and Invest in gambling. on: December 05, 2023, 08:41:25 AM
If one lend money to a gambler that means the lender too is also gambling because there are always a possibility that the gambler might lose or win but if the gambler win, with the joy in him or her, they might give you back the money or even add extra to it, but just imagine if the gambler lose the money you lend to him or her.
As there is no sure odds in gamble, I don't think a gambler can always.
It's great to utilized a solid idea immediately because it do saves us from unnecessary losses which we will never do actually comes realistic. Lending money to gambler? I would confidently choose not to give anyone money, instead they should hustle on themselves. I'm quitting gambling without a second thought, it has frustrated me and I've lost quite significant money which I'm aware if I started working on some promising projects, that means I will start  earning from the good days. Lending money should be carry out on a orderly instructions like any other days.
That's right what you say because by lending money to gamblers, we are taking the risk of losing the money, especially since we know that in gambling, we will not always be able to win and make money. Those who want to borrow money from other people really have to think about what would happen if all their money was lost at the gambling table and they couldn't even return the money. They shouldn't borrow money from other people and wait until they have their own money before they gamble than to risk not being able to pay their money back. They can look for work first so they can make money that they can use to meet their daily needs and can also be used for gambling. It would be safer for them because at least if they lose, they lose their money and don't have to return the money to someone else.
2269  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The worst slot provider ever? on: December 05, 2023, 08:19:08 AM
I assume that all slot providers are the same because slot games require luck so whatever slot game you play and from whatever slot provider, it will be difficult to win if you are not lucky. But maybe Hacksaw and Wazdan are slot game providers that have slot games where it is difficult to get big wins even by buying the Bonus feature. I have experienced loss several times, both through normal bonus rounds and paying bonus rounds. But maybe that's because I don't have the luck to get big wins.
2270  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job on: December 05, 2023, 07:59:48 AM
We simply find gambling as an easy way to make money. When people win for the first time, they see it is possible forever. This is wrong, people need to have better understanding about gambling before they take it as a profession. There are people who are lucky to make consistent earning out of gambling, looking them if one thinks the same to happen for them it's their mistake.
Those who consider gambling as an easy way to make money will find it difficult to make money because gambling is not a place to make money. They have to spend money first so they can make money but that doesn't guarantee they can make money. They can only gamble and think of it as entertainment and not think about winning because it is not easy. If they think about making money from gambling, they can run into problems, especially if they develop a gambling addiction. And the difficulties will get bigger when they consider gambling as their full job because they can experience even more losses.
2271  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I could have won bigger. on: December 05, 2023, 07:41:48 AM
After all he's your friend. We don't know for what purpose he got the money. Maybe it can be for some good reason or for gambling, because he had assured of returning it after three hours. This looks like he had spent on a match and lost. Today you've got lucky/have analysed to pick the right odds in a multibet and you have won it, fortunately you weren't able to bet big money. In the same situation if you had spent that $10 and lost, then you'll be thinking he(friend) could've given back the money later. Just enjoy what you've won.
Yes, we don't know the reason why his friend borrowed the money, but if the money was for gambling, he shouldn't have to lend the money to his friend anymore. And if the friend doesn't return the money in a few days, it's best not to think about it because it looks like the friend doesn't want to return the money. After all, he was lucky to get the win and let's say that his win was to replace the money his friend borrowed so he wouldn't think too much about the money he borrowed. And I agree with you about enjoying the winning money instead of thinking about your friends. Maybe he will come to her again someday so forget it.
2272  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: December 05, 2023, 07:17:39 AM
While gambling by itself is not wrong, at the same time we recognize that there are a set of behaviors that are not appropriate for underage people as they are simply not mature enough to take the right decision by themselves, which is why things like alcohol, cigarettes and gambling are forbidden for them.

So early on parents that gamble should make an effort to hide their activities from their kids, as this is a behavior they do not want to be copied at such an age.
But most children can still see their parents or adults around them doing things that are not appropriate for their children to see. That's what finally made the children interested in trying it. In fact, I have often seen underage children smoking with their friends casually and as if they didn't care about other people seeing them. I have also seen children gambling with their friends in a place that is not too busy. They enjoy the card gambling games they play.

That is why parents must always pay attention if they want to gamble, drink alcohol or smoke not to be near their children. At least they can say they want to leave the house for a while and visit a friend so their children don't see what they are doing.
2273  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? on: December 05, 2023, 06:51:07 AM
Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? If yes, what had been your strategy ? Do you diversify to multiple games in order to ensure that end result is always profit ?

I personally feel that there are very less chances of making a steady income with gambling. In fact, if you win a big amount in gambling, from there on , you should play games with less on stake and keep the winnings invested in some good option like crypto. It is important to have self control to end profitably with gambling ventures online. Do you agree with this ?
By the way you write, you seem to be treating gambling and investing the same way and this is a huge mistake, the few people out there that can obtain profits with gambling do not diversify, instead they specialize in a single game, as obtaining profits in a single game is already hard enough.

However once you have developed a method that allows you to do this, it does not make sense to reduce the size of your bets, and if anything that is the moment to use any spare money you can afford to lose.
But he should stop because we know and even he seems to know, that getting a steady income from gambling is not easy. Maybe many people have tried it but they failed and we also don't know anyone who has succeeded in getting a steady income from gambling. However, we must be aware that there are still other ways that we can use to earn a steady income and they are not from gambling.

However, if he still wants to try it, that's up to him but he should still be careful and maybe he can try it through sports betting. If he has good analytical skills in sports betting, he has a chance to make money. But he shouldn't expect too much to always win from gambling because it won't be easy.
2274  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: December 05, 2023, 06:37:19 AM
Emotions when allowed to take over a greater part of our thinking we some times end up having problems because at they point we lack good logic and rationality enough to think appropriately, so it's good to have some one around or better still take a walk when you are getting too emotional about your stakes or the outcome.

This remedy will help you calm down awhile and regain control over the situation and take rational decisions which may include stop playing at the moment to avoid further losses in the bid to recover that which has been lost because if you continue and it turns out you are so unlucky then definitely the pain will be greater than it was with your initial losses. In essence I'm saying chasing losses is an act of irresponsible gambling and should be avoided at all cost because the aftermath is always not pleasant enough.
When emotions control a person, he will not be able to think clearly because emotions only want quick results in a short time. When someone is in a state of heightened emotion, he needs to rest first to lower his emotions so he can think clearly. But often, someone is triggered by their emotions because they get results they don't want in gambling so they are triggered to try to get what they want.

But if someone takes certain medication to calm themselves down, it is feared that they will become dependent on that medication, which will not be good for their health. It would be better if he took a break by leaving the casino and getting some fresh air and drinking water while looking around him. It can make him calm his emotions so he can think clearly again. And by stopping the gambling game, at least he has prevented losing more money and can also think clearly about what he should do. Rather than becoming addicted to gambling, which is difficult to cure, we should remain careful when playing gambling and try to avoid the temptations that will arise from gambling.

The gambler is the human being,So it’s easy for them to emotional at the loss in the gambling.The emotional decision will not be the better option in the gambling,the gamblers will surely do the additional deposits to recover the loss in the gambling.But the fact is not easy as you think,the bet which you made at the emotional game will not be the better one.The most of the gambler will not control the emotions after the loss in the gambling,because it was the nature of the human.Only if the gambler is multi-millionaire,he can control their emotions by the money independence behaviour of the rich person.
Yes, we are human but we are given reason to be able to think clearly about the decisions we should take and not give in to momentary emotions. This emotional decision will not be a good choice, especially if it is in gambling because it can trigger us to use more money just because we want to follow our emotions. And gamblers can deposit more money to gamble because they still hope to get big wins from gambling. But in reality, it won't be as easy as they imagine because defeat after defeat will always come and they will only lose more money. And that is what can make someone addicted to gambling because they cannot control themselves when gambling so they lose control of themselves.

That's what makes some gamblers come back to the casino and gamble even crazier after they've lost a significant amount of money in the past. They expect that their money can be returned immediately through a gambling game that they do. But unfortunately in reality, the more he is ambitious to get back the amount of money, the more he loses because his gambling activities become uncontrolled and the same goes for his money, which becomes uncontrollable. Stupid

It should be a significant defeat that makes us a little upset, it should be able to make us realize that without good self-control, gambling activities will only be a very detrimental activity.  And I invite, let's improve our behavior in playing gambling, which even though we cannot get a big profit / win from this activity, but we can always get a pleasure in every time we play gambling, and can always minimize the level of loss in doing this activity. so that there is no regret afterwards.
It is true that gamblers may return to the casino after losing some money because they want to recover their losses and also still want to chase winnings. Even though they know that it is a difficult thing to achieve because we are in a gambling game where anything can happen, including losing even more. The more ambitious a person is to recover his losses or chase his winnings, the deeper he will fall into gambling and will not be able to get out of gambling easily.

After losing, a person should think about stopping his gambling activities and leaving the casino so that his increasing emotions do not provoke him. He needed to get some fresh air to lower his emotional level and prevent the urge to recover from his defeat. We must be responsible in our gambling activities so that we can avoid problems that can occur, including gambling addiction, which many gamblers have experienced. At least we need to apply it to ourselves and the people around us who still frequently gamble so that they don't experience any problems. Don't let us become addicted to gambling, especially to a serious level and find it difficult to get out of gambling.
2275  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: December 05, 2023, 06:15:29 AM
I can relate to it. I'd not call it being addicted as it's upto the individuals will power if they get addicted or not.
But being lonely increases my chances of gambling. A person who have tasted the thrill of gambling would deviate towards it when they are alone and have nothing to do.
Introverts are likely to gamble more (time). The desire even more amplifies when I'm sad. Don't if it's his gambling habit that made his wife left. But last week when I had an online disagreement with my wife who stays 500 miles (literally) away for work, I gambled whole night.
You are right because his previous gambling experience can make him remember what things made him interested in gambling in the first place. Maybe he will have the desire to repeat the past just to reminisce, but that could be a trigger for him to return to gambling again. Someone who feels lonely can use gambling to relieve stress or frustration so that they don't feel sad anymore. But in reality, he can become more stressed or more frustrated if he loses. And if he returns to gambling just because of stress or frustration, it will be dangerous for him because it probably won't take much time for him to become addicted to gambling. He must be able to release his stress to other things and if he is lonely, he must try to find activities around him that can make him more active and not feel lonely.
2276  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Using AI for betting predictions on: December 05, 2023, 05:57:50 AM
I think AI can ever predict gambling platforms. Using AI in gambling platforms is a completely wrong decision. If AI can make accurate predictions on gambling platforms, people will always use AI while gambling. Always gamble using your own experience. AI machines can always predict from human generated thoughts AI can never predict in advance.
AI can predict matches but we should not rely too much on AI to analyze a match. By having the ability to analyze matches, we can improve our analytical skills from time to time. When AI cannot be used to provide predictions, we can still analyze with our abilities. But for now, AI still needs further development so that it can really be used by gamblers well. Even though it is possible that we can currently use AI to find teams that have the potential to win a match, we should not rely too much on AI.
2277  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on staying responsible. on: December 05, 2023, 05:40:49 AM
The most important thing is to have a gambling budget. If you have gambling budget, you will know the percentage of money that you put into gambling. I for example, I use not more than 5% of my weekly income to gamble and it can not be more than that.

If I win, I stop for the day, even if the amount won is small.

If I lose and getting up to my weekly gambling budget, I quit gambling for that day.

These are what I have been doing and they have helped me to have a good gambling habit.

Setting a gambling limit/Budget is one thing and sticking to it is another, setting a limit is simpler than sticking to it, and honestly setting a limit or budget doesn't really make you a responsible gambler. Having a gambling limit is a good step but I feel what's more important is the ability of a gambler to know when to call a quit, cos you can set a limit for yourself but if you don't know when to call a quit to gambling, you'll end up making irresponsible decisions in your gambling.
By having a gambling limit or budget, someone who gambles should be able to limit their gambling activities and not gamble excessively. They must learn to be responsible in gambling because it will help them to prevent losing a lot of money and also prevent them from experiencing gambling addiction. By being responsible when gambling, we don't need to worry because we have determined how much money we use and know when to stop gambling. Most gamblers don't know when they should stop gambling, especially if they can win from gambling and instead want to chase more wins. It would take away the responsibility he already had because greed came suddenly and unexpectedly. But if he still tries to practice his responsibility in gambling, he will not be tempted by anything in the casino and can also leave the casino whenever he wants.
2278  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Money laundering in crypto casino on: December 05, 2023, 05:29:18 AM
This can be a guarantee for online casinos if they require KYC verification before getting official approval. Online casinos or gambling sites can cheat so if new casinos have KYC verification then members can gamble there safely. If the casino sites cheat then the victims of that fraud are the users but in this case we have to take utmost care and play gambling in online casinos. Online casinos are full of gambling, so you should choose the sites that are relatively low risk and the sites that are somewhat trustworthy in conducting your gambling activities.
Indeed, online casinos can deceive their members by carrying out KYC verification. But with the government tightening its regulations, it is unlikely that scam casinos will be able to carry out their plans so easily as all online casinos may come under closer scrutiny. Scam casinos may also decrease because these casinos may be detected by the government as scam casinos so that the government can immediately act to catch them. We must be able to choose a trusted casino that we find through research, especially by looking for trusted casinos from this forum so that we will not get fraud from those scam casinos.

Borrowing money is an experience, for inexperienced gamblers, to grow and understand the risk involved in gambling. Not every gambler prefer staking games with their own money and stopping when the money is gone. They'll try some more with borrowed money. If you remember a thread where a forum member wants to set up a lending service for gamblers. You'd notice how huge the number of gamblers that borrow to finance their gambling habit would be. Thereby leading them to depression and addictions. And from the survey, in the forum, many members responded that they'll never crowdfund an irresponsible gambler. Hence, putting the gamblers in a more severe pains, since their family won't stand for them in times of trouble or despair. It's quite a difficult time for OP and his family may not know about this, as he'd sound like a clown to them. This thread wouldn't sound like a warning, but a piece of advise for other newbies, not to be carried away by the effects of winning big in gambling, chasing loses or being too excited over a particular game that we spend more than we should, to catch up with the trills. Gamblers must control the way they spend money in gambling, everyone has other priorities or utilities that requires money, not just gambling.
However, borrowing money to use for gambling will be riskier, especially if we don't have a steady income that can cover the losses we incur from gambling. We will not be able to pay the loan money and we will definitely be in serious trouble, especially if we are constantly being chased to return the loan money. If they decide to borrow while they don't have good responsibility in gambling, they will have difficulty paying back the money because in gambling, we don't know when we will win but we will probably lose more often. This thread advises all of us not to gamble using borrowed money, especially when we have used up a lot of savings that we actually prepared for the future. Those who want to borrow money just to gamble should think twice about their plans. They can plan what they will do with the borrowed money and use it for gambling. But they also have to pay attention that in gambling, they may not always win but may lose a lot of money. If they can realize this, they should not need to borrow money to gamble but instead use their own money by trying to allocate funds for gambling and try to be responsible with the funds that will be used for gambling.

Self-control is not something that you just say you have but a skill that you need to develop while playing, your good anticipation
plus, your understanding with the type of game or sports that you'll going to bet in.

Greed is always behind but with good control of emotion chances that you will enjoy the possible benefits of your gambling participation may occur.

It's more on thinking positively and not to be careless when opportunity is already in front of you, choose wisely and enjoy playing.
Self-control must be trained continuously, especially in gambling games so that we can know when to stop gambling. If not, we will only experience difficulties because we cannot stop and will instead spend all our money without being able to win. And even though we can win, it won't stop us from trying to win more and that means our greed has increased and we can no longer control it. And that will obviously make us addicted to gambling, which we cannot control because we just want to gamble for a long time. Playing gambling longer than before means we are taking a greater risk of losing money than before.

It might also depend on who that person is that won big once in a lifetime. If it is someone who knew forever how to deal with money, how to avoid buying unnecessary items and whatever else some could afford, then it might be possible that someone just walks away from gambling.

But there are many examples also of lottery winners who wasted their money in a way that at first seemed to be impossible. That's why I said 99.999% because I doubt that it is the overwhelming minority which would stop gambling forever.
Yes, managing big winnings is not as easy as we imagine because we will definitely be tempted to buy things that we don't actually need but just follow our lifestyle so we won't know how much money we have spent to buy these things with money the win we got. This also requires self-control to be able to deal with the winning money that we get so that we only buy the things we need and save most of the money for our future or use it to create a business and invest so that we can have a source of income.

Many lottery winners waste their money in improper ways, such as buying things they don't need. Only a small percentage can really use their winnings well and prepare their future well too. These are the people who can change their lives for the better in the future. They don't mind if they still live simply with the winning money because they only think about their future with the winning money.
