A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff? Personally I think I would still gamble. I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.
So if I had a lot of money, I would do bigger gambles, but they would still enter in the "for fun" amount (for the new 50 million standard). For example, gambling 1K a month would be irrelevant, and winning with a 1K bet can give you big rewards if you are lucky. It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

since i have never gambled with the intention of getting rich, i have to say yes i would still gamble. because i only gamble for the fun part of it and i have to delusion of getting rich through gambling.

it is possible to get rich but the chance is so low i prefer not to plan on it!
There are allot of peopel telling me they are getting rich while they are gambling but i dont think they are true to me everytime because some times it is just shaming their self when they lose
allot of money and i know it hearts. But they dont want to listn wen we say that they need to stop it.
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

The only problem is how many coins you have stake to profit. Because we know that to make a good profit we need a high bankroll. That's what I think is the advantage of rich people.

that's true. rich people can play with their money and gambling is the useful thing for them. specially online gambling.
And I think if I also do have a big amount that I can play also just in gambling, I will also play with it but I will also control my bets so that I can earn better in doing it. Smiley

Gambling is the game of Rich people. Poor person do not have Money so how can he gamble ? Also rich people can afford to lose in gambling while there is no margin of losing for the poor.

Yeah of course I would gamble because I know that I have nothing to lose at that point in my life but I would not gamble with huge amounts of money.
I would just play for fun and try my luck but spending to much money is not good because that is how you are going to end up being broke again.

If I were rich, I would still gamble for fun as I do it now. Maybe because I would be rich not because of gambling, but of other stuff (some investments as an example). IMO, I don't think that generally anyone can get rich of gambling.

You are wrong here dear, there are some people who become rich from gambling but the thing is no one is remain rich, the reason is that they addicted towards gambling for the sake of more money and unluckily they lost their money just because of their greed.

I agree, if you will gamble just spend small amount of your money. Don't treat gambling as an investment or a way to earn big money because you will just lose in the end. Just treat gambling as a way to entertain yourself when you feel bored. If you want to earn big find other ways to earn.  Sky is the limit to earn out there.

When people love something, they will do it no matter what. Just one important difference, rich people can afford themselves much bigger loss, and that will not ruin them. Poor people invest all in in most cases and they lose often.
Again big yes for gambling in case I'm filthy rich. My bets would be much higher, and for sure wining would be higher also. If I'm rich, I would be professional gambler like 90 %. That is my dream, I would spend my time in online casinos, an real one even more.

That's why having a butterzone is good if you have a very huge amount of bankroll. Pretty I will never lose all my coins because it will be easy way to recover it.

Gambling is meant to be done for fun. Else it has a good chance to ruin your life.
For now I am gambling tiny amounts and quite rare. But if I'd have 50M$ I would gamble morevoften and with real money. I would even get on a plane, cross the ocean and go to Vegas now and then....
gambling is always for fun but there is many people don't understand that they only think about profit and how can gambling ruin you life if you mix it with your real life, gambling is just a game so you don't need to pay from your real life money that amount is for you to live with not to risk it to make them more but you will lose them

probably yes, because now i do that for fun only and not for money, so i think yes i would still gamble even if i would be rich

Most casinos that I go too its usually the rich Asian community that spends the most money. Most regular middle class white people they end up only playing slots and losing
You are very right, most of the casino have slots which makes people loose lol. Anyways, if I would get very rich then I will probably not gamble because I gamble for money and when I have it, why even gamble more ?

Yeah, there is no need to gamble anymore because you already have too much money. If they will argue that gambling is for fun, there are a lot of entertaining things to do that does not involve losing money. There are sports and other recreational activities that will give you good health and hours of entertainment.

But it is easy to earn moeny if you are rich because you have a good amount to gamble and thus you can bet higher such as 1btc per btc and by that you can safely earn a profit of 1 btc a day.

Gambling is never a good investment. To invest, you need to do proper risk assessment and gambling is one of the worse investment you can have cause the expected reward is negative. That means you will more likely to lose your investment than profit from it.

People gamble because they need money, when you are rich you will not gambling again.

We can't surely say how that likely to happen. What if you are rich, betting as high as 1btc, but always lose?
You may lose your wealth in just one day.
The opposite thing may happen as well but that is not always the case.

If I am rich, i don't know that I will play gambling, or I will busy with other work. But now if I  become rich suddenly means I am sure I will play gambling. But not online gambling I will visit real casino's, and I will play. Because playing in online and offline is very different so I choose offline Gambling.

Mostly rich visits actual casinos because that is more exciting and fun than doing it online, only the poor are doing online gambling and their main concern is only to make profit rather than to be entertain.

If I'am rich of course i will still gamble. for me life is a gamble. everything you do has its own pros and cons. For example, you are rich and planning to build a business, then you will gamble your money if that business you will build will be profitable for you or not. Everyday we gamble on our life. It's up to you how you will play your game.

Even gambling is just for fun.
Still the lose that you are going to make there is better to put it on the profitable things.

what I mean is that everything we do in life is a gamble because we don't know what would be the consequences of our actions. The day we started thinking is the day we started to gamble. We always have our choices and every choice we make is a gamble. So choose wisely Wink
