Actually, regardless of the amount of budget used if for example your intention and goal is to pursue victory to restore something that has been lost or pursue the recovery phase then yes as you said that it is a bad idea, no matter what percentage is allocated even though the amount is quite small but still the intention and goal is wrong which in the end will only make the person suffer a greater amount of loss, that is certain and will happen over time.

However the best is yes as you said that the right solution is to quit gambling and never touch gambling again, one of the reasons is that we must understand that gambling will always be an activity full of uncertainty where the possibility of losing will always be a sure thing in every session you do, and losing $64k is such a huge amount that I think it's already impossible to reach the recovery phase, so of course the right solution is better to be patient to let go of everything that has been lost and then stop gambling, don't pursue recovery because in the end it is clear that you will most likely only increase the amount of defeat.

It appears you are correct in saying that trying to win back losses through gambling can be a treacherous route. Regardless of the budget, making the primary objective to offset prior losses can create an unwholesome and harmful cycle.

Gambling can be characterized as an activity with high uncertainty, which implies that there is always a probability of losing. Losing large amounts of money is definitely devastating and hard to recover from. Recognizing that the best way out is to quit gambling can be seen as a rather smart move. It’s a long process that requires time, perseverance, and willpower in order not to get back on the same path seeking a solution. Rather than dwelling on past mistakes, it’s better to concentrate on healing and self-improvement so that in the future one avoids such harmful patterns.

Stopping the addiction of gambling is the most powerful and brave step anyone can ever take to make a change in their life. This marks the beginning of your path towards being healthy and regaining your freedom from the negative impacts of gambling.

As long as we still like gambling and placing bets, there is always the possibility that we could get addicted. And although the final outcome of gambling is full of uncertainty and unreliability, because gambling is full of surprises, many people are willing to spend their money, leave their jobs and also ignore their obligations in order to find these surprises and make a profit. However, because the final result of gambling is very difficult to predict with certainty and we never know when luck will strike. Many people without realizing it have experienced many losses and become addicted just because they are waiting for luck that never comes. They have lost a lot of money due to the gambling they do and the bets they place, and if they decide to stop these activities, then the losses they experienced previously will never be replaced, so they continue their gambling activities even if they have to take out loans or sell goods. personal items, because who knows, in the next gambling and betting session, victory and luck will be on his side.

To some extent, I understand the concerns some people feel about racism in gaming and its impact on sports betting. It is true that cases of racism during matches can be a source of distrust in betting results. There are many aspects to consider when you want to bet on a game. One such aspect is whether there will be transparency and honesty in the game. If you feel racism or manipulation of any kind will occur, it may not be wise to place your bets on the match.

At the same time, refusing to participate in some games for fear of racism or manipulation also raises questions about the ethics of our relationship with sport. Is it better to avoid matches that may be prone to racism, or is it better not to disengage from efforts and struggles to challenge and fight racism in sport?

In situations like this, it is quite important for us to always maintain our sanity and common sense, namely by always considering all the impacts of the decisions we will take. So that we will be part of the people who always maintain the integrity of sports, and play a role in overcoming the problem of racism in sports.
344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lottery Fever. What are your range of thoughts in response to Lucky Winners? on: April 15, 2024, 01:20:48 PM
I once spent a lot of money on lottery tickets, I once suffered from lottery fever. It was a very stupid experience, because I lost a lot of money on bets that had very little chance of winning. And what started me feeling obsessed with this type of gambling, was not because I had won it, but because at that time my brother managed to win the lottery and get a very large prize, which was thousands of times the amount bet. At that time I hoped that I would have the same luck, so I bought so many lottery tickets. But still, even though I had placed a lot of numbers, the luck never came, so I only got losses.

Departing from this experience, I feel tired if I have to return to that kind of gambling, even though currently there may be several people who have succeeded in getting prizes from the lottery they bought. However, with the large amount of losses I have experienced, for now I am no longer interested in having to buy lottery tickets again and spend a lot of money for uncertain results.
345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is gambling to you, a fanfare or potential financial havoc? on: April 15, 2024, 01:07:48 PM
This all depends on ourselves in viewing and understanding gambling. With all the risks and negative impacts of gambling, for me gambling is a hobby and fun. However, I have to pay a high price to be able to carry out this hobby and enjoy it, and what I have experienced in gambling, the possibility of losing is always greater than winning, but I consider the losses I experience to be a fair price, which I have to pay to get that pleasure. As long as we gamble with an amount of money that we are ready to lose and ready to lose. I don't think gambling will cause serious financial problems. However, when we consider that gambling is nothing more than just a hobby and fun, then stick to that understanding, don't let it be that just because of the winnings you get, you have a different opinion about gambling and say that it is not only about fun but also about making a profit. This understanding will only make you even crazier about gambling, and lose a lot of money and suffer a lot of losses from gambling.

Know when to stop and when to play, and when you find that the gambling activity you are doing is only causing losses, because you are experiencing continuous losses, it would be a good idea for you to take a break from the activity to just calm down. . to regain control of yourself. Indeed, there is an opinion that the more often you experience defeat, the closer you will be to a big win, although sometimes this assumption is true, but you need to remember that the final results of gambling and betting are uncertain and cannot be relied on. So it's very stupid if we spend a lot of money on something we're not sure we'll get.

Never act stupidly, when you win, immediately withdraw from gambling, because if not, it is possible that the money you have won will be spent on gambling again. And likewise, when you experience a losing streak, stop for a moment from the activity and gain control over yourself.

Situasi di timur tengah semakin mencekam, israel adalah tangan kanan Amerika Serikat di Timur Tengah, sehingga bukan hal yang cukup mengejutkan bahwa AS selalu berada di belakang Israel. dan meskipun posisi negara kita itu jauh dari daerah konfilk, akan tetapi tetap saja kita akan terkena dampak secara tidak langsung. Seperti perubahan harga dan situasi perekonomian yang memburuk. Untuk menjawab segala tantangan yang akan terjadi, karena untuk sebagian besar kebutuhan negara kita itu masih mangandalkan produk impor, termasuk untuk menjawab kebutuhan pangan. Untuk bisa bertahan pada situasi ini, maka setidaknya kita harus mampu meninggalkan ketergantungan terhadap produk impor, meskipun cukup beresiko akan tetapi hilirisasi menjadi salah satu cara untuk bertahan dan meningkatkan perekonomian negara kita.

Pada tahun 2020 lalu, jumlah TKI yang berada di Timur Tengah itu mencapai 988 Ribu, dan bayangkan saja jika situasi di timur tengah semakin mencekam, maka para pekerja Indonesia yang berada di Timur tengah sana akan dipulangkan, yang mana tentunya hal ini dapat menyebabkan lonjakan jumlah pengangguran secara signifikan. Dan jika hilirisasi tidak dilakukan dari sekarang, maka jumlah pengengguran tidak akan tertampung. Disisi lain, negara kita harus meningkatkan poduktifitas dalam industri pertanian, karena untuk saat ini, meskipun negara kita itu adalah negara agararis akan tetapi untuk sebagian besar kebutuhan pangan kita itu masih mengnadalkan negara lain.

Villarreal is capable of taking points from Athletic Bilbao, although Marcelino's team has a frankly weak defense, so this will significantly reduce their chances in this match. Simione achieved an important victory in the match against Girona and now has a comfortable 5-point advantage over Bilbao. By the way, Barcelona beat Cadiz and now almost certainly became unattainable for Girona. Of course, they won’t be able to reduce the 8 points to Real Madrid in the remaining matches, but Barcelona’s position in the table looks good.

I thought everything was over for Villarreal when they got a red card and Athletic Bilbao got ahead later on. However Dani Parejo who is their very experienced player scored the equalizer in the last minutes. I was really surprised to see that. Athletic Bilbao lost points in really comfortable condition and they must have scored their second goal as quick as possible.  Sad

This must be a big relief for Atletico Madrid now as the gap between them is four points now. They can focus on their Dortmund game even more from now on to finish the job. From now on I don't expect Atletico Madrid to lose the fourth position as well. I believe they will make sure of it by beating Athletic Bilbao home in around two weeks.
A draw in the Villarreal vs Atletic Bilbao match, however the match was quite fierce and both were very aggressive, unfortunately Sant commesana had to get a red card in this match, of course that is a story that I will not be able to follow again the last few matches of the season, in my opinion Villarreal was quite epic in equalizing because they did it in the last seconds of the second half match finished, It was beyond the expectations of many people in my opinion, I thought I would also get a win in this match because I bet on Atletic Bilabo and I almost cheered on my bet but the world spoke differently and I had to mope for a moment because it was very upsetting, the problem was the last seconds that made me lose my victory.

Of course in the standings Atletico Madrid got peace of mind seeing Atletic Bilbao get a draw against Villarreal because of this he became distant with Atletico Madrid and could calm down to get into the champions league next season without worrying about Bilbao taking it. And Bilbao needs to be careful for himself because the Europa League ticket could have been taken by Real Sociedad even though it was difficult but it could have been caught up without him realizing it.

Surprisingly the Milan duo got a draw last night and that prevented them from being able to collect 3 points from their opponents. I was quite surprised to see the results of the match between the two where they should have won easily against a weak team and unfortunately they couldn't do what they should. Inter drew against Cagliari and Milan drew against Udinese and the score was quite bombarded with goals.

Maybe if they win it will further strengthen their respective positions in the standings, but they have to postpone it first this week with only getting one point. On the other hand, Cagliari and Udinese are certainly quite happy because they still get one point to stay at the bottom of the table and can avoid the relegation zone this season.
Not only is the Milan duo match stranger but most matches this week have an average match with a draw maybe to see AC Milan vs Sasuolo and Inter Milan vs Cagliari in the spotlight but if you look a little more like the Bologna vs Monza match, Torino vs Juventus, Napoli vs Frosinone, and Udinese vs As Roma which are still suspended but on the board now they get a draw match, isn't that more surprising than just the Milan duo because this is very rare, maybe they choose to share points than not at all.

But certainly for this season in the serie it belongs to Inter Milan, and what I pay attention to again is As Roma who are pursuing a position to be able to get a ticket to the champion league next season, but Bologna is still above them, while As Roma this week can only collect one point which makes it quite difficult to get closer to Bologna's difference, but they will meet in the next 33rd week to prove who deserves a ticket, even though they can win win against Bologna but have not been able to overtake their position because they need two wins to overtake Bologna.

If Leverkusen eventually gets to win the Europa league this season i would not see it as them been lucky because they have proven to be deserving of it and they are Also appearing like they may get to win a trio this season because they are already t the top of the bundesliga with the hop of winning it and same applies to the DF polka in the Germany too of which if they finally gets the Europa then it's a trio.

Liverpool who has been the favorite for most people to win the Europa has gradually get people to loose hope I'm them after they lost to Atlanta because we would have taught they will be able to win Atlanta and make sure they are winning the trophy this season but then sadly they are now giving Atlanta the chances to knocke them out of the league and have a chance to win the trophy but then lets hope they will win.
Leverkusen became the new hope of some people after they established themselves as winners in their domestic league the bundes league, and are now in the quarterfinals, beating West Ham United in leg 1 with a 2-0 result. And we just have to wait for the second leg and I'm pretty sure Leverkusen can win the match against West Ham in the second leg even though it's on West Ham United's home turf, of course people who think that this is their luck are too naive with the efforts made by Xabi Alonso and also the Bayern leverkusen squad, they find it difficult to admit that Xabi really has the capability as a coach today who can bring hope, yes if you can win three championships it can be said to be a treble even if not with the Champion.

Strangely Liverpool are getting praised the worse, we see that Liverpool rise but they themselves break that hope for us, I also did not expect Liverpool to lose to Atalanta, Klopp seems to be losing a lot of trophies this season after failing in the English premier league because of losing to Crystal Palace and losing also in the Europa League by Atalanta, I thought before Klopp's departure would give a present to Liverpool as a winner in one of the leagues to save his last trophy but in fact it was just a hope.

Well a few of interesting results in this weekend which can impact a lot in the series, Arsenal losing against Aston Villa and coming to the game against Bayern munich in not a good mood or mental strong.

Bayern Munich already knows they cant win bundesliga and now Leverkusen becomes the champion, so they know only UCL can save the year, wors news for arsenal.
This is certainly favorable for Bayern Munich, first they are the host and second Arsenal are in a state of grief because of the defeat of Aston Villa which makes them no longer occupy the top of the English Premier League standings, and instead was taken back by Manchester City, which a few weeks in third position then immediately at the top of the standings, Guardiola was very lucky.
Yes Leverkusen can already be declared the winner of the bundes league because Leverkusen has a point difference that is impossible for Bayern Munich to catch up with, so Tuchel has no other hope of being able to add trophies to their cupboard only in the champions league, They definitely get the victory in my opinion even though it is still in the 50-50 bet for match ii from some confidence, but if Arsenal players do get a bad mentality due to the defeat it will certainly be easy to beat, but if you think about it, Arsenal also have no other hope, they must win the match against Bayern Munich to be able to advance to the next round, they also need that victory to show themselves because in the English premier league they will only be able to become runners up, and that is quite disappointing.
It is possible for Bayern Munich to win Arsenal easily, if Arsenal allows this defeat to get into their head and emotions. If they contain it and understand that it is not about winning all the time, and work on the problem that their opponents used to take advant2of the match. It will be a good help and motivation for them to play Bayern at home, and displaying their best performance.

Will I say that Arsenal has fallen for Manchester city again by allowing the title to slip of their hands. Anyway it is football and more surprises will come up as the league is coming to an end. However, Bayern Munich shoukd have also ayidy Arsenal's weakness in today's match and they will use it as an advantage on that day.
Of course we need to see the response of the arsenal players as a result of the defeat against Aston Villa and making them no longer at the top of the English Premier League standings this week, but if you think about it considering that arsenal has experience competing and also Artetas has learned a lot from his problems last season, this kind of mentality problem should be overcome by Arsenal, if they really learn well about their mistakes in the past.

Yes, if viewed as a whole, this is very useful for Bayern Munich if he can take advantage of this situation well, and of course can also see the weaknesses in Arsenal against Aston Villa, so if Tuchel learns correctly and can see the weaknesses in Arsenal it is a good step for the match in the second leg later, but if he is bad at understanding it I am more curgia that Arsenal can beat Bayern Munich despite the second leg match at the Allianz stadium.

It's not that Arsenal fell in love with Manchester City but Arteta hasn't learned much from Guardiola in my opinion, so maybe Guardiola is patronizing his friend Arteta this season again by showing the quality of strategy and the placement of players with the right to make a composition of the game that is adjusted to the strategy.

Masyarakat Indonesia itu setahu ane anget-anget tai ayam om, mereka itu di awal-awal saja akan antusias memboikot dan memblokir produk-produk kroni israel, tapi semakin kemari mereka malah melupakan, dan malah sekarang ini ane lihat makin ramai saja tuh tempat-tempat makan kayak kfc, mcd, dll. Ya mungkin saat ini masyarakat sudah tidak ambil peduli lagi terhadap kondisi rakyat palestina yang semakin parah keadaannya. Belum lagi pemikiran masyarakat indonesia melihat aksi boikot juga tidak terlalu berefek terhadap israel, toh walau diboikot mereka tetap dapat subsidi bantuan senjata dari negara lain dimana produk-produknya masih banyak kita konsumsi di indonesia.

Mungkin apa yang pernah dikatakan oleh Joe Biden ketika dirinya sedang diwawancarai itu ada benarnya, bahwa "Orang-orang yang boikot produk kami ini hanya umpama seekor anjing yang akan kembali kepada tuannya apabila mereka lapar." Meskipun perkataan tersebut memang sangatlah kasar dan tak pantas untuk di dengar apalagi disampaikan di hadapan publik, akan tetpi memang pada kenyataanya seperti itu, dimana untuk saat ini orang-orang kembali mengantri untuk membeli produk-produk yang dianggap pro-terhadap israel. Yang mana hal ini membuktikan selain daripada masyarakat kita itu tidak mampu konsisten seruan yan teah dilakukannya, yakni memboikot priduk yang dianggap pro israel. akan tetapi hal ini menunjukan bahwa untuk saat ini, sebagaian besar masyarakat indonesia itu masih belum mampu untuk bisa meninggalkan ketergantungannya terdapap produk luar.
israe dan kroni-kroninya, tentu saja seruan boikot ini sangatlah berpengaruh besar bagi bagi israel, terutama bagi perekonomiannya, karen aperlu dipahami bahwa selain pereokonomiannya itu ditunjang oleh bisnis senjata, akan tetapi untuk sebagian besar pendapatan negara tersebut juga ditunjang oleh ekspor kurma, yang mana negara-negara islamlah yang menjadi target utamanya dalam ekspor kurma tersebut. Sehingga bawayangkan saja jika seluruh negara dan masyarakat muslim bersatu untuk menyerukan boikot terhadap kurma israel, akankah perekonomian negara Israel tersebut akan baik-baik saja..? Dan jika pereokonomian dan pendapatannya turun, akan kah israel masih mampu untuk membiayai perang para zionis melawan hamas.

Real Sociedad vs Almería
It is going 29' minutes going on but no one can score in this match, currently this match is very confusing for me because Almeria create the match position and on the others hand Real Sociedad is doing good on attacking like they are their shot on target was so close to goal. Anyway I have a doubt in today's are we can able to see any goal before the half-time. Anyway my prediction say that today both team will score and ended up Real Sociedad will win as their recent performance and other than Real Sociedad won most of matches against Almería.
Edited: Owh Really both team scored 1-1 between doing my post and on between only two minute.
It seems that your calculations were wrong and the final result showed a draw with a score of 2-2, both quite fierce, although Real Sociedad fought hard but in the end they could not move more to enter more goals, adding a draw to their meeting in week 31. Did you bet on Real Sociedad this week? It's very disappointing if you lose because you get a draw in this match, of course it will make a little upset because it doesn't match your expectations.

Barcelona and Real Madrid managed to win narrowly, they still got 3 points. Their points gap is still the same and Madrid seem to be getting more comfortable at the top. Madrid won only 1 goal, because Mallorca performed well and in the 1st half they played quite slowly. For Barcelona they dominated, but they could only make 1 goal through Joao Felix. Felix became Barcelona's savior, but it seems Barcelona still do not want to extend the loan contract from Atletico Madrid.
Yes these two big teams won narrowly this week, because the opponents played well enough that they didn't get many goals to collect, but enough to add 3 full points and can wait much quieter for the match in the next week, but it seems that they cover their strengths and are not so ambitious to get many goals in that match.
Jao Felix, perhaps Xavi and others are still considering whether it is worth keeping him or Barcelona already have a worthy replacement for next season so they continue to not decide whether or not to extend Jao's loan contract with Atletico Madrid. In terms of potential Jao Felix is very good and he has shown his capabilities so far, but whether it is still worth it or not in Xavi's view we do not know.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Neymar being addicted to online poker on: April 14, 2024, 09:22:14 PM
On the other hand he is addicted to being unfaithful.
Neymar is a typical example of person who lives for the world. He 'masters' the material world, having access to all the facilities, pleasures and comfort disponible for wealthy and influent individuals. For that reason, I think your phrase above is totally accurate and summarizes the description of Neymar very well, because when the person focus only on material stuff, he will be easily dragged by addictions and ephemeral pleasures, which don't mean anything on long run, while giving up on his human essence, which involve deep feelings of peace, self-consciouness, welfare which demand sensibility from the individual to be experienced.

If the person loses contact with this part of his existence, inevitably he will become unfaithful, empty, cold and indifferent to people and moments which should be important and full of meaning for him. I guess people start living on an automatic mode, shutting off their conscience more and more each new day and each new bad choice they make for their lives, worsening symptoms of addictive behavior, and even worse: symptoms of unfaithfulness...
I think every human being wants to live a better life in the world so many people strive to reach a higher level of life, myself included.
It's very easy for you to judge people in this context, for me personally this rather than explaining at the level of impact of the Human itself when the position is the same as Neymar is very subjective and human relativism will cause different outputs on what they have done with gambling, whether it's abnormalities or unfaithfulness that may occur as you said, but for me personally this also depends on the response of his environment and also his family regarding the character that is in neymar, maybe you can say it in such a way, such as the popularity of wealth and getting access to all the luxurious facilities and finally plunging into addictions that will cause the bad nature of man to come out, we cannot be sure with just the naked eye in analyzing this kind of thing, but whatever it is called a very bad addiction will turn someone into a bad human being, such as drugs, women and including gambling, if the addiction suffered is in the final stage.

But we need to remember that maybe because Neymar today has many facilities to access all things easily, he is not worried about himself and the future of his family.

Unbelievable. Arsenal lost to Aston Villa twice in a season. I am sure it is the fault of the coach. Every single minute of the game i watched it clearly. The errors started from the formation. Where he had to bench Martinelli and started Trossard in the first half. When he is fully aware that Trossard is a game changer and not a starter. Secondly, he kept Jorginho on the bench and played Havertz as midfielder in the first half. This is so crazy you know! It's obvious that Arteta is not ready to win the league, all the Arsenal fans are extremely disappointed with Arteta. Because this was the only opportunity to top the league and win it. Now that Manchester City is at the top there is no going down for them. The league is for them now.
Arteta doesn't learn from mistakes and Arteta continues to make them. It's hard to believe, even though this is the time for Arsenal to top the standings, they were unable to take advantage of this opportunity properly. It could be said that in this match Arsenal were defeated by their former coach and former players, Emery and Martinez. From yesterday's and today's matches, Cristal Palace and Aston Villa immediately paved the way for Man City to lift the trophy, so Man City should be grateful to them.

Absolutely, as you say. The fight for the EPL trophy seems to be over. Just give the trophy directly to Manchester City. Because, if Man City is at the top, it is difficult to go down. In addition, the remaining matches are also more profitable for Man City because they have easy opponents. Arsenal still has to face Chelsea, Tottenham and Man United. Liverpool played three away games in a row.
Arteta and Arsenal experienced the same incident as the previous season, they were a little closer to winning the league but in the end they became runners up, surely most Arsenal fans feel very disappointed, being disappointed twice is a very bad thing in my opinion, if Arteta used the same strategy and composition of players surely this would not happen to Arsenal, I also don't understand why he included Martinelli and Havertz in the first half, but maybe my positive thought is that he wants to try to save energy and in the second half he can stabilize his players, but the results are bad and not according to the original plan, yes I think Arsenal were humiliated twice at home, this is tough but ridiculous.

Guardiola and Manchester City benefited greatly this week, Crystal Palace and Aston Villa wins saw him fly to the top again, I think Guardiola needs to say thank you by giving a warm greeting to both teams, and yes, Manchester City if already at the top it is difficult to go down, unless they lose KDB like before which makes their strategy ineffective and messy when there is no KDB in their starting lineup on the field, we will hand the English Premier League trophy back to Mr. Guardiola this season.

This kind of experience of yours is a good example of why education shouldn't be the primary aim if it's not required for the part which you choose in life.

I have seen a lot of graduates out there without a job, the response they get from the society out there is very terrible but the problem doesn't end there, if they stay without a well paid job for a long time it will lead to depression. And it was almost the same situation with you, but the difference is that you decided not to give an ear to such response.

I don't care about their sarcasm, I consider it to be the wind. They contribute absolutely nothing to my life, so why should I care what they say. It would be better if I continued to focus on the plan I had made beforehand. Responding to their words will only waste the precious time we have, responding to their words is the same as solving unnecessary problems. Because the best way to silence their mouths is to prove the success we have achieved through the path we have chosen.

It's not very uncommon to hear about that kind of situation where someone who's an undergraduate but still able to be successful in life. The thing is people such as those are the ones who know how to market themselves, either have the skill to communicate better than any of those people who have diplomas or can show more confidence that most of the time needed especially in the corporate world.

It's all about how we apply what we learn in life, not solely the learnings we get in school because not everything we learn at school is useful in life. It is still up to us whether we will use that education to become a better person, or just like above, if you don't finish your education, it's up to how you level up yourself to achieve the needs to start the journey to become successful in life.

Non-academic skills are very important for us to master, because sometimes the reality that occurs in the field is very different from what we learn during college. Although all the knowledge we gain at school is not always practical for our real life, it is important that we put that education into use and utilize it in our day-to-day lives. In this sense, the decision of whether to use education as a means of self-development, or even if we haven't completed any formal education, one can still improve oneself and succeed in achieving his/her goals, lies entirely with us. The point here is to be eager enough and have the diligence to keep learning and developing as a person.

A child whose life is still dependent on his parents for the time being, and when, for example, we as fathers, the backbone of the family, experience serious problems due to gambling, then it is not ourselves who are the victims, but also those, who are wives and children, who will also be affected.

We all know very well that gambling has quite dangerous risks and negative impacts, because anyone can become addicted, and even those who are old enough can become addicted to gambling, especially those who are underage, maybe they are a little more susceptible to becoming addicted. Therefore, it is quite important for us to always monitor and ensure that our children's growth and development can go well, and that irresponsible gambling activities do not become a factor that disrupts children's growth and development and damages their future.
what you said is true, as the head of the family who has responsibility for his wife's children of course must be highly prioritized however it is a bad impact if we make mistakes in gambling, but honestly this depends on how you manage yourself and depends on your situation too, if gambling does not interfere with the economy and your time with family I don't think it will be a problem, as long as you manage it properly and don't like to exceed your limits in gambling, so you can continue your hobby in gambling but yes of course we gradually have to reduce gambling time from what we usually are in the casino because after marriage has a family that needs your time.

The risk of bad in an unprepared state is real, gambling can do that, so yes as much as possible you need to minimize gambling in front of your child or if possible not in front of him, including also protecting our child's environment because nowadays the environment will easily influence our children to enter a world that is not yet their time to enter such as gambling.

Maybe when someone can control and regulate these activities well then gambling will not be a problem. However, when someone tries to use gambling as a shortcut to improve their family's financial situation, then this is clearly wrong behavior, because the final results of gambling cannot be relied on. Instead of gambling being able to improve their financial situation, in the end this activity actually worsens their financial situation, where their needs are not met at all and the money they have is used up on gambling because they have started to become addicted to gambling. In the end, this behavior can cause disharmony in a household relationship, and possibly result in divorce.

And it's true what you said that as much as possible when we gamble, never gamble in front of our children, because perhaps gambling could be a bad example for them (children), with their very high curiosity, children. Children often try everything adults do, including gambling.

A focus on quick profits can lead to large risks. There are those who choose easy ways of making wealth, but these may offer immediate results only. Instead, spending time and effort to nurture your skills, connections with others, and self-esteem will yield stable success in the future. At times people are encouraged to spread their investments between meme coins and other short-term projects for faster returns when in fact it would be wiser to invest in assets like Bitcoin that steadily appreciate over a period or invest in one's own development.

One of the most common methods to make a lot of money in a short period is participation in get-rich-quick schemes and activities. However, it is the accomplishment of long-term success that is based on laying a strong foundation and investing in oneself. The results may not be as instant as what short-term investors would expect, but the values and benefits that can be derived from an investment in yourself are certainly worth more in the end.

There is a popular quote that says until everyone around you is rich then your still poor. It's same thing here with your concept, we must always elevate the people around us to be free financially, if you're the only person free financially it turns out that you will not still be free in a short time because you will tend to lift all the bills from your household on yourself which I consider as same as suicide.


Let me add an old proverb that says do not give them fish rather teach them how to fish, so that your basket of fish can be much. One way to be financially stable in a family is atleast Almost everyone in the family earns a living themselves. This way you have all the money you earn to yourself or to carter for just few people which could be the old ones and younger ones who can’t work anymore.

A lone person earning will easily worn them down and some could get frustrated which most at times lead to family feuds. But every member of the family having something to do only reduces each other’s dependency and to me create more peace in the family as no one is tied to another financially

And when someone gets used to being given fish, they will come back to ask for the fish. Because they don't know how to catch fish. However, when we don't just give them fish but also teach them how to catch it, they will slowly leave their dependence on the person who gave it, because they can catch fish themselves.

In a family, not everyone has to earn a living, but each family member must be able to play a different role. Where a father and eldest son are in charge of earning a living, and a wife is in charge of taking care of the house, looking after the children and managing the family's needs and finances. and even if a wife wants to have additional income, in this modern era someone can make a profit just by staying at home, such as selling online or other things. In a family relationship, financial and economic problems are always quite crucial and sensitive issues, and even in the large number of divorce cases that occur, most of them are motivated by family financial and economic problems.
