2141  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: November 29, 2023, 05:34:10 AM
That's what I mean, as much as possible we should be able to control greed that will make everything a mess, by controlling greed it can avoid losses that will come later, for example when getting a win immediately it might be better to cash it in, not following the ego that leads to continue the game, that way we can be said to have good self-control because we can cash in on the winnings we get and we can also fight the greed. It is difficult but there is no harm, because it can also have a good impact on us. If gambling continues by always following the ego that leads to greed like that there will be no end, but will only make us go deeper with the amount of money lost due to gambling. So as much as possible must have limits when gambling because all of that we ourselves have full control.
Also self-control that must be owned and strengthened more, because it also has an important role in gambling that can make us limit existing gambling, especially when getting a win. When getting a win, of course, control plays a very big role, because if you don't have strong self-control, you can lose the winnings you have gotten again because you bet it again, and that must be avoided, how? one of them is by having strong self-control, because it can limit us when gambling and it can also save us from the risk of big losses.
What you say is correct because by winning, it means that we are luckier than other gamblers and must immediately stop gambling and cash out and not decide to continue gambling. This is to avoid greed, which can become greater because there will definitely be a desire that tells us to continue gambling without taking a break. None of this would happen if we had good self-control because we could restrain ourselves from continuing to gamble. We should also know about it, especially since we have experienced and had that experience before. So before it's too late, we should immediately decide to stop gambling and leaving the casino is the best choice we can to avoid big losses by continuing to gamble again. Many gamblers have decided to continue gambling after winning. But the results were unexpected because many of them ended up losing very big and even having to spend all their winnings. That's the point if we have good self-control so that we won't be tempted by everything in the casino and can prevent ourselves from spending the winnings. We still have plenty of time to gamble again another day so we need to rest after winning or losing so that we won't be triggered to continue gambling.

I don't know about you dude but if I have a way to slack off in a job that doesn't pay me that much, you bet that I'm going to grab that opportunity, sure there's ethics and responsibilities but they better be paying me the livable amount of wage because no way I'm going to be doing 100% in work for a measly sum, and it's not like the company isn't exploiting it's workers anyways, might as well do stuff that I want to do while doing my work at bare minimum. I may be another cog in the corporate machine but I'm not going to be a blindly obedient cog.
Yes, you are right to have a way to relax at work and as long as it doesn't interfere with your work, you can keep doing it. But you should be careful because there are definitely colleagues who don't like seeing what you do. After all, that's what happens in the company or at the office. Many said that while working in an office or company, many said that competition and putting each other down in the office was strong, making employees have to be more careful in how they socialize in the office. But if you have solid colleagues who can understand each other, there definitely won't be any problems at work. The important thing is that we know the conditions at work so that we can adapt to what we want to do when we are relaxed.
2143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time) on: November 29, 2023, 04:47:02 AM
Of course, there are many kinds of casinos that always offer promotional promotions through advertising to attract the interest of gamblers to use the casino that is being promoted.
As smart users, we have to be smart in choosing a casino that doesn't just advertise tempting promotions. We have to be smart in thinking about whether gambling is not will give big wins unless we are really lucky, both physical casinos and online casinos in my opinion are the same, they only want to get big profits from gamblers who are able to carry out gambling activities, the casinos don't really force users to gamble but they just trying to tempt users, but if we can't afford to gamble then there's no need to force it, but if you want to try it's better to deposit a small amount of money and the most important thing is that you are willing to lose the money and don't try to return the loss.
Of course, we as gamblers also have to be careful in choosing which casino is suitable for us from the many casinos that we encounter both out there and on this forum. Of the many casinos, only a few can be included in our list of trusted casinos so that we don't need to gamble at casinos that we don't know. So far, there have been many fans of slot games, especially now that there are so many slot providers in each casino, so this slot game gets lots of promotions every day or week to attract lots of gamblers. As gamblers, we also have to estimate how much money we can use to gamble so that we can prevent losing a lot. Only use the money you can afford and the rest, you will be fine with the self-control you have.

Of course, that's their marketing plan, so provide very attractive offers to gamblers so that they will have to play on that casino (with reputation), and then chase those wagering requirements that might not end good for us. Because we all know how bad slot games are, as the OP has seen it, and that's why he conclude that it is a complete waste of time and money on his part. But there are gamblers that really loves to play slot machine and even if they are in the losing end, they will still consider and go and chase that feeling. Luck plays a big part on slot games, not everyone is blessed with the same luck, and so as gambler we wanted to be that one that is going to win the bonus or the eventual big jackpots that this slot machines offers.
It's better not to force yourself to take part in a promotion if there are betting requirements that are very difficult to fulfill because we have to be wise in choosing the promotion so that we can get the bonus given in the promotion. Slot games can make a gambler spend more time just trying to get a big multiplier, and many of us have experienced this. We have to limit our use of gambling in this slot game because it can make us forget to stop gambling before all the money runs out or we can win. Indeed, luck plays a big role in slot games and only lucky gamblers can win at slot games with big multipliers. Others can only win small amounts of money.

I got used to slowing things down after a big win. Sometimes I do switch to another game because I feel like I won't win that same number twice in one game. Like lightning doesn't strike in the same place. But we all know it's a myth.
That's where the fun will begin, on how we will manage all those profits that we made. Like OP, he won a great deal of amount but it's because of the wager requirement that's keeping him from betting on the gambling site. The difficulty of winning again will be there because that's how the gambling sites are programmed.
By betting many times I learned that lesson and I am sure as hell that it ain't just me that realized these things are actually happening. The system (most of the time) will let you win at your early bets, the first 100 bets are so sweet that you will feel that it's too good to be true. Because it is. We gamblers will always let greed win and we will keep on betting either in slots or other casino games after that until we find ourselves in a losing spree.
I rarely get big wins. I can only keep trying to play slots but within safe limits and what I can afford. I try not to exceed the budget amount every time I play slots so that I can still control myself well. But indeed, I once lost control of myself, which made me play slots several times more rounds than I usually played. That's because I'm trying to chase another victory even though I've already won or want to recover from a previous defeat.

From there, I learned that you only need to play slots in moderation and you don't need to be too eager to chase wins or recover losses. We need to enjoy the slot game without thinking about it because it can make us have the desire to chase victory. If that happens, we can forget about restrictions and self-control and what will happen is that we will just continue playing in the next round without thinking about the remaining balance in the gambling account.
2144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: November 28, 2023, 02:15:03 PM
Yes because it should be like that, if they do not spend money or deposit money in gambling, they will not be able to gamble, because money is the main role in gambling, there is money they can play but if there is no money they will not be able to play simple like that. They will not be able to succeed from gambling which is just an entertainment in the form of a game, therefore it is impossible to succeed because it is not a job like in general, right what you said, if they want to succeed by involving gambling, maybe they should work as staff in gambling maybe that can help them to be successful even by being staff in a gambling company. I think that to succeed just as a player is very difficult, there is a chance maybe but not big, it all comes back to their luck that will give them the victory. And they should not gamble until they spend their money let alone spend their savings.
Instead of spending money on gambling to make money, it is better for them to just look for a job where they can make more money and spend less money even though the money will be used to meet their living needs later. But by working, they can earn money and will not become addicted to gambling, which can endanger their lives, let alone spending all the money and valuables in their house. It would not be worth it for many people to gamble because it is by gambling that they will lose more money without being able to hope to make any money. Getting success from gambling or making a career from gambling will not be as easy as they imagine because they have to gamble before they can make money but that doesn't guarantee they can make money. That is why it would not be advisable to make money from gambling or make a career out of gambling. Moreover, we have seen many people lose a lot of money when they were gambling.
2145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The best game with a cryptocurrency deposit? on: November 28, 2023, 11:21:10 AM
Almost all games that fiat gambling sites have today, crypto gambling sites are also having them. So why referring to the best game with cryptocurrencies? Also that individuals have preference for something. The game that you like might be the game that I hate most. Also the game that I like might be the game that you hate most.

I guess that this aviator game is so interesting to OP that he wants to share the trills and excitement with us, it's OK for people that wants to try something new or different. As you noted, it doesn't bring any new features to gambling or using crypto coins, except perhaps how interesting the aviator game is programmed about the fun of flying. Still this is subject to individual liking, some people will not have anything to do with flying, whether in real life or fiction,while others will love it. Anyways I don't mind that OP is advertising this game, so it's left for individuals to decide whether to gamble on it.
But you have to remember that the game requires luck so you need luck to be able to win. This aviator game can make you addicted to gambling because you can lose more often than you win. And you also need to restrain your greed so it's not too late to take advantage. You may often leave the game running when you see the benefits because you still want to get bigger profits. This is what makes many people experience losses because they don't immediately press the stop button when they reach a certain multiplier. And you have to manage the use of the money so that it runs smoothly because you often lose.
2146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: November 28, 2023, 10:55:23 AM
It is quite possible that when young children see their parents checking out the lottery and hoping that they should go this time and win, this delightful mood of expectation of something good is automatically transferred to the children.  And since this happens often, young children also rejoice in this mood of their parents.  And so, as children gradually grow up, they themselves begin to feel such good experiences when they become older.  And of course they also continue to buy lottery tickets. 
I think this happens in most families where at least one parent, father, mother or, for example, grandfather regularly buys lottery tickets.
The experience in childhood of seeing their parents check the lottery will make them try to buy the lottery when they are older and they will continue to try when they have not managed to win any prizes. It may be a trivial thing but it can provide experience about gambling to young children who follow what their parents do in buying the lottery. And when people buy lotteries, it may be a normal thing in some places, especially if more people buy lotteries too, so when there are grown-up children buying lotteries, that is no longer something new. However, those who frequently buy lottery tickets should be able to allocate a certain amount of money so as not to disrupt their finances.
2147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with crypto because taxation makes no sense? on: November 28, 2023, 10:30:00 AM
tax can be avoided in crypto casinos which are made for crypto gambling by winning their and keeping the winnings in crypto but while withdrawing we need to pay tax on crypto gains,
 But i think it will be hard to avoid tax deduction sites which just allow deposits from crypto and play on their platform with fiat.
Not every site deduct taxes we can withdraw what we have won on their sites without giving anything to site or government, legally we need to pay taxes if the winning amount is taxable.
It will depend on each country because there are countries that don't mind and don't ask for taxes from crypto users, especially if they can win from gambling at crypto casinos. But I don't know what the regulations are in countries that allow crypto to be used for betting. There may be taxes they have to pay because regulators monitor all the activities of their citizens. Regulators or the government can easily track the use of our money and they can also ask us to pay taxes on the gambling we do. The government can also find out if we can win from casinos, and they may ask for additional tax money than before.
2148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can old generation cause the habit of gambling in young generation ? on: November 28, 2023, 10:01:30 AM
Young generations or kids would copy what old people shows them or act in front of them, so yes gambling or discussing about gambling would somehow lead to it.
It is also their guardians or parents job to make sure that the kids or young generations know that there are things that old people tend to do that could be bad for them.
Sometimes even if they are in a bad environment kids or young generations only needs a good role model to understand the difference between good and bad habits that could destroy their future or health.
Yes, children can imitate their parents in gambling using the devices they have, especially if they have often seen their parents gamble in front of them. They will not have difficulty playing gambling games. By watching their parents gamble, they will slowly understand it because they also learn from their parents. They will probably often ask their parents how to play it so that they will understand more and know how to play it. Parents have to be really aware of this because children now know what they want and often they imitate what their parents do. As parents, they must be able to educate their children by providing good examples and an understanding of good and bad so that their children can understand it well.
2149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do Owners of betting companies bet? on: November 28, 2023, 09:40:15 AM
Do owners of betting companies place bet on their own platform or is there a policy specific policy that restricts them from betting. Do you think that there would be conflict of interest or that it will be unethical if owners bet on their own platforms. These are the questions that I am seeking an answer to.

There is nothing wrong with casino owners to bet in their own casino, I don't suppose there are rules that restrict them from doing so. But it is not advisable for a casino owner to use his own casino. In as much as you have the Liberty to do so I believe it is better to use another casino. Except maybe the person in question has a good percent of self-control and definitely not an addict then he can bet on his casino if you choose to. Maybe to try and multiply his money or maybe he just want to boost the morale of other players.
Indeed, there is nothing wrong with a casino owner betting at his own casino. However, the casino owner should use an account that does not show that he is the owner of the casino so that there is no suspicion whatsoever that he can win a lot of money from his casino. But it seemed funny because he was betting in his own casino. It might be better for him to gamble at another casino and not use or show that he also owns his casino. But if the owner of the casino were me, I would sit back and enjoy the amount of money coming into my account and make sure it was in a safe place. We don't need to double the money because there will definitely be many gamblers who will lose large amounts. So we only pay attention to the casino while still monitoring whether there is fraud occurring in our casino.
2150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: November 28, 2023, 09:20:20 AM
It's true that you said that gambling as a hobby is a big mistake, but if it's for people who have unlimited and endless money income, it doesn't matter, I see many old people in casinos who play gambling even though they are a hobby. old but they still gamble not to mention the women who accompany them and also the bodyguards they have. This makes them have untold wealth or endless income, so they can still gamble even though they are old and even though they have physical limitations such as disabilities because there are also those who gamble using wheelchairs. It is possible that they do gambling in their old age because that is the only pleasure they have in gambling and that is the only place they can get pleasure, this cannot be denied because everyone has their own rights. It's just that what's wrong is people who have limited money but still insist on continuing to gamble. Rich people who gamble until old age tend to only seek pleasure not victory, in contrast to people who have limited money, they gamble by pursuing victory, while victory is difficult to obtain, if you are unlucky you still won't get what you want. And that will only make them addicted.

And to cure that addiction is a difficult thing to do just like self-control, easy to say but difficult to do. Not to mention if they have a stubborn nature, it will be very difficult to give advice to them because people who have a stubborn nature and are addicted to gambling may rebel or fight when advised because they cannot accept themselves being advised. The most important way is to give lessons or whatever it is that will make them aware of themselves, if they still can't then they themselves have to feel something that can make them aware, it sounds difficult if someone else makes them aware, but it's the same as those who have to make themselves aware. So they will not easily get their consciousness just like that, maybe it needs other people like family who have to make them aware, or their own wives if they are married maybe that can help make them aware even though it sounds difficult but I think it can be done, because effort will not betray the results if it is for a good thing there is nothing wrong with trying it. and in my opinion they need to be accompanied for the healing process so that they can be more enthusiastic about getting well. Actually, there are many things that can be done to awaken those who are addicted to gambling, one of which is to provide firm behavior, there must be people who dare to order them to leave their addiction habits, with firm behavior it might help them leave their addiction habits.
It's okay to make gambling a hobby but we have to remember that it can only be done by people who have unlimited income, as you said. Meanwhile, there are still many people who don't even have a fixed income but still often gamble because they have the hope of being able to win at gambling one day. This hope is what makes them continue to gamble using money they get from anywhere because this hope becomes even greater when they win some money. But if they still can't change their mindset, they will only experience defeat, which will probably get bigger until they can't control it. That is why we can only use gambling as entertainment and not use it as a place to make money, let alone make it a permanent income. Many people have tried it and they only failed when they were unable to generate income from gambling. If they want to make gambling a place to earn a steady income, they are better off creating their own casino and doing promotions because that will bring them an income that will be even greater if their casino becomes more popular.

Those who continue to try to use gambling as a place to earn a steady income will only become addicted to gambling, which will become even worse because they have lost control of themselves in the first moments of their introduction to gambling. And when they are addicted to gambling, this ultimately makes it difficult for them to cure it, especially if their gambling addiction has become worse because they will just refuse to admit that they are addicted to gambling. Indeed, people who are addicted to gambling will not easily realize that they have a gambling addiction and even though people around them have warned them and told them the truth about their gambling addiction, they will not want to admit it. If people around him never give up on always reminding him about his gambling addiction, there will be a moment that can make him realize that he is already addicted to gambling. He will ask the people around him to help him immediately before he becomes addicted to gambling. Even worse. This will be a way to try to cure people who are addicted to gambling by taking them to an expert or psychiatrist so that they can get better treatment for curing their gambling addiction.
2151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: November 28, 2023, 08:53:03 AM
Not everyone can control themselves when they get a win, there are still some people who do as you said, by following the greed that has overcome them so they take steps to continue the game by pursuing a bigger win which of course they are after getting some winnings in gambling. And maybe this can be said to be a very risky decision, because the victory that was previously obtained may be lost again by following his greed. what they should remember is, luck will not always be on their side, so when they get a win and want to continue the game by aiming for a bigger win, they should consider it first so that there is no such thing as regret in the end because most likely they will lose the winnings that have been obtained and get tired again.
We have to prevent our greed from getting bigger because when our greed gets bigger, we will definitely have difficulty controlling it and we will also lose self-control and indulge our greed to continue gambling until we end up losing our money. That is something that often happens to many gamblers, where when they have won a certain amount of money, they should immediately withdraw the winnings and not continue gambling. However, instead they continue gambling until they use up their winnings because they feel they can still win another amount of money before they stop gambling. But the reality is that they actually experience defeat and the defeat gets bigger because they still think about pursuing the victory they have previously obtained. That's not wise for us, especially since we already have more experience than them, so we really have to control ourselves well and won't be tempted to continue gambling.

Yes that's right, they must be able to control themselves well so as not to fall deeper into gambling which could possibly harm them a lot. With strong self-control, of course they will be able to control emotions, and fight the greed that is in themselves to avoid the risk of losses that will come then they must be able to avoid it all by having strong self-control so that all things that trigger losses can be avoided by them. People who do not have self-control tend to make decisions in a hurry when they get a win, and make decisions to continue the game that has a greater risk, Right you say they should not rush to take an action. because this will cause a problem for themselves, unfortunately not many people have strong self-control, and that is very unfortunate. There is no other way but for themselves to realize everything.
However, if we have self-control in gambling, we can survive from losing more money because we can estimate how much money we can use to gamble. We will also not think about chasing bigger wins because we are aware that we won't be able to get it and it's better if we have enough with everything we get. By losing self-control, our emotions will also increase drastically and we will not be able to control them so it is only a matter of time until we actually lose all the money. Fighting greed must be accompanied by strong self-control so that we can suppress that greed and it doesn't cause problems for us. When we can suppress that greed, we can think clearly that we have had enough gambling and are grateful to be able to win some money. Other people may not be as lucky as us in winning some money from gambling, so we have to realize that we have won and it is time to stop gambling.

Yes, it is indeed as you say, I wish that before entering we could all take courses or something like that so that we could have a format to not lose money entering a casino, it is normal, it is what most of us could take into consideration so as not to lose money, consequently we can give good results if what we do is register, but first read all the possible advice that is given, in the foo many advice can be given, among them those of the members of qui in the forum, because Lately I have seen many users, players who are in trouble with addiction, there are many threads and many doubts about this, it is not easy to deduce that there are many players who suffer from this addiction, in this sense we are people who We can see things from this point of view, of course, it is good to know and understand before considering playing.

In fact, in some of my posts in thread that are very relevant, I have always said that there is a way to make a great guide for more experienced players by giving their advice so that new players can read before playing, this will help them avoid having very big losses and thus they can do things better when they play, at least not lose all the money that they are willing to lose, because it is something very sad that they enter a casino for the first time and that they lose at once, that It's sad, and I could say that to get to that level, many of us go through strong, very hard experiences to get to learn what we currently know, that's why the thing about money willing to lose will always be my first piece of advice, and to take advantage of it. profits from a casino, because if you continue playing you can lose very quickly, this is the only main thing about this, I could think that this is how you can observe a better pattern to prevent many from falling into the pnessic addiction which makes you lose many things.
Many people will not want to take a course or something like that because, according to them, it is just a waste of time, especially since they say that they gamble because they want to have fun. But after they gamble for some time, the goal of getting pleasure from gambling changes and they now have the goal of getting money from gambling so they eventually lose control of themselves. Those who have no experience in gambling should be able to learn a lot from the threads on this forum to know that gambling is not a way to make money so they will not try too hard to win gambling games. They can see that there are many people who are addicted to gambling, which may be difficult to cure, especially since those who are addicted to gambling always deny the fact that they are actually addicted to gambling. This is a serious problem that is widespread and we must be able to warn people not to gamble excessively so that they do not develop a gambling addiction.

We always advise everyone that when playing gambling, we have to be very careful and don't need to use a lot of money to gamble so that we don't lose a lot. If they can control themselves while gambling, they will not experience serious problems and they can even still enjoy their gambling activities happily because their goal is only to gamble to have fun. And if they can win from gambling, that means they have had enough gambling and must immediately stop gambling so that they don't lose their money and can enjoy their winnings. They can return to gambling another day after refreshing their minds and reducing tension after gambling so that when they return to gambling, they will not think about anything except just having fun. They must be able to control themselves so they don't become addicted to gambling and must learn many things to be able to prevent gambling addiction so that they only enjoy gambling as a form of entertainment.
2152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Easy with unusual/strange gambling sites on: November 28, 2023, 08:21:02 AM
Has anyone tried gambling on unfamiliar platforms maybe learnt through ADs?
I have seen many fake loan apps, just like fake casinos and gambling sites, and because Ads can be unregulated, they have also become a tool for criminals to use to promote their fake casinos and betting websites and get victims. I noticed how often these fake websites and apps run advertisement, and it is even more than what some legit companies do. These ads show up whenever you are using another app, or even a social media site, and they may look legit. Their usual victims will be people who want to try out online gambling and casinos for the first time, and others who have no one to ask for recommendations. New gamblers have to be very careful.
That's why we all have to be very careful if we see an advertisement that looks too good to be true, especially if the name of the site looks strange or we don't know it at all. Usually, advertisements that are too good to be true will turn into a scam after they succeed in getting money from consumers and will just leave the consumers. These advertisements appear very frequently in many applications and the scammers are able to spend a lot of money to place advertisements in many applications. That's because they manage to get a lot of money from consumers by cheating them. People who are not careful in looking for more information about the site can be deceived and lose their money.
2153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? on: November 28, 2023, 07:56:51 AM
For mother's luck is right that will give them victory but for skills I doubt it, because slot games don't seem to require good skills, because for beginners who gamble by basing even if they are lucky they can get a win, so I think the role of luck is above skill if for slot gambling. Unlike poker gambling where math is the core that must be mastered. It's true that you say gambling to make money but it can't be separated from their luck, because even if they gamble desperately if they don't have strong luck in my opinion they won't get their winnings even if they spend a lot of money to get a win.

It's true that you say they have to keep their minds off getting the win, the win is secondary, the main thing is that they have to look for fun in gambling, it's not just the win that makes them happy, because the sensation that exists in gambling can also make them happy if they gamble with the aim of seeking fun and entertainment, but unfortunately many people pursue victory so that many of them become stressed because of the pursuit of the desired victory. I admit that everyone wants to win, but if they gamble to get a win, it's wrong.
If they want to win the gambling game they like, they have to think about what needs to be prepared before they start gambling. Whether it is a game based on luck or skill, they must have the ability, but they must expect luck to only sometimes come when they gamble. That is why someone will find it difficult to earn a steady income from gambling, whatever type of gambling game they play. Even so, maybe there are people who can get a steady income from gambling, but for those of us who are just small gamblers who are not good at analyzing matches in sports betting, there is no need to try. We can only use gambling as entertainment and try to win the game with the analysis we have.

Yes, we are only looking for fun in gambling so we shouldn't force ourselves to chase that win, especially if we deposit more money to chase that win. We must be able to limit the amount of money we gamble to avoid losing too much, especially as many gamblers out there have experienced this, so we have to be really careful when gambling. We all want to win but we have to know that we only have a little money to gamble and there are other needs that we have to fulfill.

I think borrowing/lending and investing are two different aspects although very similar.

If you are lending some money to a friend or a person, you don't care what they do with it and what they bet on, as long as they have a way to pay it back.

When you are investing in a player you are accepting that the person might fail and trusting his abilities to win. In that case, if he loses then you have to just accept it and move on.

I've never funded a player but I have tailed sports bets from experienced guys and gave them a tip when it hit.
That is why if we want to finance someone or borrow money from someone, we have to know whether he is able to pay his debt to us or whether he will not want to return the money at all. Moreover, this is a friend who we probably hang out with a lot so some of us might feel bad if we don't lend him money. But if it is going to be used for gambling, we have to really think about it before we lend him money because in gambling, a person will not always be able to win and that means he has the possibility of not being able to pay his debts.

Likewise, with investing, because every investment will definitely have risks, we also have to think about these risks. If we can accept whatever will happen, we can lend him money, but when we cannot accept the fact that he may not return the money, we don't need to lend him and can give the excuse that we need the money to meet our daily needs.

Recovering from gambling losses quickly is an unrealistic expectation. Gambling is an activity where there are more people who lose their money than people who gain money. Chasing losses often leads to a vicious cycle of desperation and further losses. Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not about make money.

People who like gambling should accept that the losses have occurred. Having fun with people is what gambling should be. The temptation to chase losses is strong, but it's a dangerous mindset. having more time with gambling will make the gambler loses himself.
Yes, indeed, it is not realistic to recover losses resulting from losing from gambling because it clearly requires a lot of money. Moreover, it also does not guarantee that we can get the money we lost from gambling. Yes, they can try, but they also have to realize that it will require more money so they can think about whether it is worth doing or they can forget about the loss.

That is why when playing gambling, we must really limit the use of money to prevent losses that could get bigger. There will be more temptations that we will encounter in gambling but that does not stop gamblers from continuing to gamble because there is a hope of winning some money from gambling. We don't need to try because we already know what the consequences of recovering from that loss are, so we have to be able to control ourselves so we don't use more money.

And even if they somehow were able to find such a casino can you imagine the massive wager requirements such a bonus will have as a requirement? It would not surprise me if we were talking about a 20x or more as a wagering requirement.

And in that case why waste our time when the wagering requirements are so unforgiving, it is just way better to just save a few dollars and then use them to gamble as much and whenever we want.
We can't imagine how they will meet his huge wagering requirements because there are casinos that use their wagering requirements to be more than 10x and that could cost him a lot of money before he can get his bonus. That is why we do not recommend taking promotions that have wagering requirements because it is clearly burdensome for those of us who are just small gamblers.

Casinos will issue promotions for small gamblers who don't have much money so that they can take part in the promotions and can get the bonuses too. And if we are not interested in the bonuses in every promotion issued by the casino, we also don't need to use or allocate more money to get the bonuses.

also they will not get a prosperous life if they continue to gamble because it does not guarantee that their lives will always be funded by gambling, the chances of someone's success in gambling are very unlikely, unless they are staff from the gambling company maybe that can make them successful because they work as gambling staff, if for just players in my opinion it is impossible, although there are some people who are successful with gambling, it is only because their luck is very strong so that they can succeed with gambling easily. People who are successful with gambling maybe they already have a lot of money and become billionaires so they have opened businesses everywhere and have stopped gambling, it can be said that they might be successful with gambling, but the chances are very slim that it is impossible for everyone to be successful with gambling because their luck is different, maybe for some people their luck is strong in gambling and some people have their luck in other things not in gambling. So they must immediately realize that the defeat they always get when gambling, means they are unlucky in gambling.
That's because in gambling, we always have to spend money before we can get money and that will definitely require time, which we often can't get after playing gambling for a few days. People who gamble and hope to make it a career will not be able to get it because gambling is not a job like people who work in offices or companies. And yes, they should work in a casino if they want to build a career from gambling and it will be more possible to earn income because they don't have to gamble and spend money but they work in a casino. However, if people still want to make money and build a career from gambling, they should think twice about doing so because there are so many factors that they can lose that they should be aware of. They should look for work, as we have said, rather than playing gambling where we don't know when they will win. We can't take the risk of losing a lot of money to build a career from gambling because it can obviously drain all the savings we have and we could go bankrupt before we can even get a big win.
2158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: November 28, 2023, 05:40:59 AM
Yes, that's true, but if you want to prevent losses from gambling, the most important thing is to limit your budget and gambling time because so far I have learned from a lot of gambling, everything including self-control is very important, but limiting your budget is much more important, usually people People who limit their budget will consistently play without having to think about how to recover their losses, they will play and enjoy the game

I have been gambling all this time, only focusing on limiting my budget so that I can be consistent and can control myself from addiction and bad habits that other gamblers do, chasing losses and recovering from unnecessary losses, that's why the mindset is very necessary, always think of gambling as entertainment, nothing more than That.
Limiting funds for gambling is a necessity that gamblers need to do to prevent large losses because in gambling, they will experience loss more often. And if they don't limit their funds for gambling, they will definitely experience a lot of losses so they will only regret it if they see that their gambling account has no more funds. We should not be triggered by other gamblers who can use big money to gamble because each person has different funds.

We as small gamblers, can only limit our budget and just like you, I also always limit my budget for gambling because I don't want to lose something I can't afford. And we must also always avoid recovering from loss or chasing the win because we already know that it is difficult to obtain. And rather than spending more money to recover previous losses, we should keep our budget limited.
2159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most gamblers do not believe they can consistently make money, that's why... on: November 28, 2023, 05:16:36 AM
Maybe it's possible as luck might bring you those opportunities and with good understanding and capability to handle situation like this you may leave the house and withdraw all your money to enjoy and use it for such leisures that you plan to do if by chance happens to you. Though the chances are slim, we never know, right? Lottery winners are a good example and they just learn with great luck to make it happen and to achieve certain goals.
Yes, luck of course, gives a person a big opportunity to get a big win and after someone gets a big win, he is free to use his money for whatever he wants and he can even make a house out of his winnings. He can also keep the people around him a secret from where he got a lot of money so he can make a house. Yes, luck gives people hope to keep gambling and want to win. That is why there are still many people who buy the lottery because they can still hope to get the jackpot prize from the lottery, which is a lot of money.

I do not know why the gamblers still believe that they can get consistent income from gambling. Yes, those who are new or those who have never been involved in gambling, they may have this point of view but those who regularly gamble, they know how difficult it is to win consistently in gambling.

No matter how good you are in gambling, or how much experience you have, it is not possible to get a consistent income from gambling. Sometimes you may win more than expected while at times you lose more than you anticipated.

Gamblers need to re-evaluate their thought process if they think that they can earn a regular income from gambling. If they think it is possible, i would ask them to share examples of themselves or anyone who has been able to produce constant income from gambling.
That's because they still see people can win some money from gambling so they still want to gamble to win. That's also what makes them think that they can earn income from gambling when, in reality, it's not easy at all and they have to use a lot of money to win. And it doesn't just happen to experienced gamblers but it also happens to gamblers who have just gotten into gambling. Those who are new to gambling see that some people can win from gambling so it becomes an obsession for them so that they can get money from gambling too. They don't know that it is difficult to get because many things have to be sacrificed and it also doesn't guarantee that they can win some money.

Gamblers should be able to think that what other people get will not always happen to them so they don't need to follow what other people do. They only need to use gambling as entertainment and not to earn income, which will only result in them losing.
2160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: November 28, 2023, 04:44:13 AM
Rich gamblers apart from having the freedom to gamble because they have a lot of money, what determines why rich people can earn more money is the minimum bet is different.  if we as a gamblers whose maximum bet is no more than $10-$100, if we win at sports betting with a win of $100 we will be very happy. Meanwhile, rich people can have more betting power than that. If this rich gambler bets $20K, and wins $20K, this is very different from a small gambler. So, it's not surprising that the rich get richer if they win, especially if they get the jackpot.
A rich gambler can bet with the maximum or minimum bet so he can gamble longer than the average gambler and if he wins, he can also win more than the average gambler. That is why most gamblers still often experience defeat and lose all their money in gambling but that does not make them stop their gambling activities. They will keep coming back to the casino to gamble and hope that this time, they can win a lot so that they can recover their previous losses and also earn a lot of money. But a rich gambler who has been gambling for a longer time can get big wins and when he wins, he will probably rest longer than most gamblers, especially if the winnings are very large. Yes, it is not surprising that rich gamblers get richer if they win, while ordinary gamblers only lose more money.

Apart from the rich gamblers are not immune to the risks associated with gambling, They can gain potentially larger winnings that can cover up their losses, because they can put bet after bet due to their capital depth. They also feel less pressure to win that makes them more control of their emotions that makes them better at decisions making. Most of the times, rich gamblers are more rational at gambling.

Gamblers with limited funds may be more inclined to adopt a cautious approach and minimizing their bets, because they have bigger fear of losses. They have budget limit to stick to and bigger pressure on their own, because They need to prevent the negative consequences they can't afford.
You are right in what you say because rich gamblers can win much bigger than most gamblers. They can gamble longer and may be able to win more than most gamblers. I remember there was a rich gambler who placed a bet with big money and when he won, the amount of money became 2x-3x the amount of money he used to place the bet. Indeed, most gamblers can also increase their betting money by winning 2x-3x. But the amount of winnings he gets will be smaller than that of rich gamblers.

That is why the average gambler should not place bets that are more than he can afford because it will make him careful with his money. He can also bet with a minimum bet so that his money will stay supplied so he can also gamble a little longer than usual. And don't follow what rich gamblers do because most gamblers have little money.
