i also feel like its more of a theoretical thing than practical. but i believe with discipline it can be achieved. where people get it wrong is that how do you estimate or separate the money that you can afford to lose? if you can sincerely answer this question then it will help you to gamble responsibly and not to be addicted.

As I said above and you have repeated here that whatever condition you are in in gambling honestly other people will not care too much about you, except maybe your closest family who will be a little encouraging to get back up, there are only some friends who are still close to you, some of them will stay away because it is very likely that they are afraid of being affected like you feel there. This is a very valuable life experience that should indeed be made into lessons, take lessons and change everything into something better, that's all we can do for a better start.

To be honest, there is no prohibition for anyone to gamble, therefore only you yourself can create various restrictions including self-control so that everything does not go out of control, which can really cause something unwanted to happen to you. If you have agreed with yourself with whatever risks that will occur there, then go ahead and do whatever you want, as long as you don't invite other people to come to your lost path, whether good or bad, only you will feel it. I'm sure all gamblers don't want to experience a large amount of defeat so therefore always set a healthy and realistic mindset, after all this is just a place to seek entertainment not income, don't let you get trapped.

Well if you have already gone through it I hope you make it a very valuable lesson in your life, and from now on you can start with a better step, I mean walking with the purpose that should be lived, forget all your bad past and never think about trying it again. Of course it's better to focus on making a living from a place or job that makes more sense and guarantees you to get money for sure than you continue to depend on gambling which is clearly only limited to luck and of course there is no certainty in terms of earning.

To be honest, there is actually no prohibition at all for gambling if indeed they have full responsibility for everything that can happen, especially the number of defeats. If you can now control it, it's a good thing because only yourself can help you, other people won't care about your problems there. Agreed, limiting the budget is a very good idea to minimize your losses and besides that you should also limit the time to gamble, because obviously if you still allocate a lot of time there then it is very likely that you will be hooked again. It's just a matter of you getting your hopes up in the wrong place.

I would assume that you could just make sure that you are gambling in a limited manner and that could go on for a long time. I can give you myself as an example and I can tell you that I have been gambling for a while now, it has been a few years that I have been limiting and if I can keep doing this for years then I will be able to keep gambling until I am old.

Obviously if anything changes, like me starting to play a lot more then I may have to stop, or if I get even poorer which we do not know what life would show, then yeah I would have to stop that too. So long story short, there are situations where this is possible but not all of them would be the same as every other situation without a doubt.

It is true that I see now that most of the gamblers are from the middle to lower class, it makes sense when I ask what their reasons are that make them survive to always gamble, which is yes as you said above "hoping to win" it is clear, the average of them always bring the same reason like this. This kind of mindset is really very frightening, which is where they see this gambling as a solution to increase their finances through a few wins, honestly I am quite concerned about those who have poor finances but instead enter gambling with unreasonable hopes and mindsets, instead of winning in the end they lose all the money they have, even if they have entered the level of addiction it is very possible that they will let their stomachs starve just to gamble and think that the money they bring can multiply when they win. But the question is, is that right? No, the fact is that gambling is not a place to earn income at all, that's the exact reason why until now there are still many who are down there because of defeat.

Gambling has taken a lot of victims and the average is from the middle to lower class because of the hope factor. So really it's better to change that mindset, this is only limited to entertainment not a place to make a living, I hope you will be careful not to go too far.

There are some people who have a lot of income and it will be right if they gamble. There are some people who have very little income and gambling will not be right. Gambling requires a lot of money and time. But not everyone has it. Those who gamble  After getting addicted, they never have peace in their lives. Because they sell all their possessions to raise money for gambling. I sometimes gamble to spend my free time. But when I see myself getting more addicted to gambling, I try to stay away from gambling.

Most new gamblers has this kind of high hopes of victory in their first try. Those who wins on their first try has the probability of play again but those who experience defeat will experience different emotions like regret, revenge and other emotions that differs from person to person depending on how they see their loss. It's just that there are many gambling winners but the number of losers are way more than the winners, it's logical because casino is a business and not everyone can win. I believe that gambling had bring much negativity to people compared to the positivity that people get, I'm talking about the number of people who experience negative effects after they gamble in over all.

over expectation is surely a way to lose money , specially in gambling that we all knew that luck seems to be distancing .
why need to seek for great winning when you are playing just to have fun? and destruction of atmosphere is part of how we must deal in gambling .
if you cannot manage to control your emotion then you must not gamble at all.
actually gambling must be for fun , and only winning to be consider as bonus.

Gambling is all about luck and fun, we cannot predict the outcome to any bet made while gambling, we are instead taking risk to gamble not minding of we loose or win, and lastly, when we gamble, we are more prone to loosing than winning because no one knows the end result of each gambling we do until we are done first, so if we want to enjoy gambling, then we must do without considering winning or loosing and remain focus on getting the desired results and satisfaction in it, which everything result back to having fun and being in a leisure atmosphere.

Exchange it directly to USDT to see how the coin develops, if it has good potential for the future then hold it.
After all, the rewards given from Airdrop or Bounty are also not that big.

Most are still in the development stage or projects that have been successful immediately have a good market.
You can transfer USDT, BUSD, or other stablecoins to the market using a network that has low fees such as the BSC network, Matic, Optimis, Arbitrum, etc.

Suggestions for Hard wallets that I think are still good are Ledges Nano S or X, Trezor Model T or one, and Safepal S1 or X1.

Just choose, but some hardware wallets have their own advantages and disadvantages such as Ledger Nano which can extract private keys.
Research before you buy.

hoping for freebies you could rely on airdrop and many more but is it truly worth your time? since even testnet task for airdrop these days also become worthless.

Transferring all your balance to the marketplace does not guarantee you will be safe either.
You have to look at the coins you have, sometimes some coins that have a price at your address do not have a market listing and are only available on Dex.

You also have to see all coins have their own market or CEX & DEX, it will all be scattered and will not be one, so this will provide a lot of costs to move it if your valuable coins are many.

Prefer to use a hardware wallet that is already secure enough and choose a hardware wallet that is recommended by everyone.
You must separate the main address and the address for airdrop, because the airdrop address will be very vulnerable to being hacked or exposed to coin dusting traps.

in the future they will definitely send some scam coin to you if your wallet have some funds that they are interested in.
these scammers are so eager to get your money they'd always target any wallet with stablecoin for example.

In my beginnings in the world of gambling, I tried to keep track, so, for example, in an Excel sheet the things I did, I recorded each one, obviously I did not have a fixed amount to make, and at the time When I started doing it, I found it very difficult to make the diary, because there were factors that always influenced the game, even though I was looking for quick objectives, and with small amounts because it was something that was difficult for me sometimes, I didn't do them, and instead of complying, what I did was balance the amount from the previous day, that is, I lost it, and that demotivated me, so I stopped doing it, but some time later I did start doing it again in a more orderly manner, even though I lost. , and it is very useful for the simple fact that financial control is carried out, sometimes we do not want to carry it out for the simple fact that we do not want to see negative numbers in our finances, but it has to be done because it is better to be able to take preventive measures, I don't know if this has happened to anyone, but in my case it is like that.

I have always thought that things when it comes to games of chance are quite strong when it comes to seeing if there is profitability or not, because it is a very easy way to be able to do things better, if we can do it. More precisely, for that reason it is what should be carried out, because if there are too many expenses there it must be stopped, the key is to stop the losses and increase the profits, not the opposite. I know that when we play in the casino We always let it pass that we increase the losses by betting a lot more money as if with the hope of winning, but that's not the case, that's like in trading, we must cut the losses and increase the profits, there is no other option, of course it's up to us. something we call "hope" and it is something we should not let go, because we are People who Want the best for ourselves and we always want to recover what we have lost, these are normal Things for us.
