I never gamble with the hopes of getting rich.  I don't bet big enough or often enough to get rich from gambling.  I just do it for fun/entertainment.  If I were as rich as you said, I would still gamble for fun.  Just small amounts, like now.  I guess not much would be different than now.

Yeah, probably those who are rich and not a gambling addict do gambling from time to time but not often..Probably, if you were a gambler before you get rich, then there will be time that you will be missing gambling even if you stop..

most people would still gamble and this is of course logical because the fact's that you can than finally enjoy gambling and not play for the profit you want to make with it..


Yeah they will still gamble just for fun now and not be pressured on winning only this will make them enjoy gambling more.

if i become rich i will not risk that mmoney anymore i will invest them in some business and i will be so happy with that little long term profit.
the luck will come one time so no need to try again or you will lost your lucky shot then this chance will not come again.
so people need to act smart and know when they stop Wink
Spot on. Also, if you have business, it can be a source of passive income. You will be earning even if you are lying in your bed or vacationing on a far away island. That, for me, is the real meaning of becoming rich. Relaxing without the worry of your money running out. Instead your money is earning more money. And you can only achieve that with a established business. Gambling cannot give you that.

But if you were rich you will have more chance to win a lot of money in gambling because you have some bankroll to sustain your loss. You just need to make your daily goal. lets say that each day or week you earn 1 btc and after that everything is just depends on your luck when you are on it. I dont think it is hard to earn if you have really good bankroll

Yep, me too. Since I'm not gambling to become rich and I fully understand that Iwill most likely lose all my balance sooner or later, I see no reasons to stop gambling when I'm rich. I hope this approach will not make me poor again though. )

I think I would because you could gamble for the fun part, sometimes people gamble for the profit you can make with it and I do not think that is than needed anymore.
Although I think the feeling also will be less more nice to gamble because the feeling that you won a certain amount is not there anymore because you already have enough money.

Yes indeed, it is good to gamble for fun and if you are rich you can gamble just more and you have also more fun and that is very good for your morale.
If you are poor than you must ask if they will still gambling if they become poor because of gambling, some people are poor because of gambling and that is bad.

I would probably gamble, but only for fun, and only sports betting. And if you consider day trading crypto a form of gambling, then yes, definitely. Smiley

Well if you are rich why gambling more until you end out.It is better to gamble with low funds rather then making huge bets with fact that "I am rich".Gamble is not a way which guarantees you win for sure even if you make  huge bets or whatever (High win chance).

Gambling is not more than entertainment.Don't make it a part of life.It will eat you at some point of time.

Exactly ,that is a kind of thinking that we should have.

I would not gamble if I'm honest, I think the fun part is from it when you are rich money is no issue so gambling is not enjoying anymore because winning money does not matter than anymore right ?
Overall I think gambling in real life would be lot more fun because you can use real cash and show off your money.

If I were rich I would still gamble if that is what I like to do in my free time and it feels enjoyable to me. I would be betting more money per game obviously but I won't be chasing losses hard like now because I would be already rich and wouldn't care about negative profit and bankroll management Cheesy

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.
if i woke up tommorow with 50 milion dollars,of course i will not playing gambling anymore,even i'm play it,i just not with hope to won,just spent bitcoin or money to throw my boring Grin

Why a rich person would waste the money that can be spent to get almost anything ,having fun and pleasure .Why would be an insane thinking i will make a 200k deposit to gamblim proposes just to increase my pleasure and maybe my portfolio.Imagine this ammount at one single sport bet ,how the house would be able to pay if the person win even odds being 1,05

I would still gamble for fun, because that is what I do now with it.  I am not going to change my life completely just because I won the lottery or whatever it might have been.  Gambling is meant for enjoyment, I might up my betting a little bit if anything!

Well if you're saying that you've wake up with 50 million dollars without gambling then that would the way where you use your money cause you've earned it that way.. But if you're saying that someone just given you 50 million dollars then try to make a business first before thinking of gambling your money..
