If I were rich I would certainly do something more lucrative as an investment. Because it would supplement my income properly. Although I gamble it is just to have fun and my entertainment.
That should be the way to gamble when you are rich, we focus on the fun and not on the money. Anyway, there is no sense in gambling when you are focusing on money when you are already rich, as long as there is a discipline rich people will enjoy gambling more.

I agree, if you are already rich then you won't matter losing anymore when gambling. You will just do it for your own pleasure without thinking how much you will lose. It doesn't matter to you if you win or not. Your only goal is to gamble in your heart's desire until you are tired doing it.

but if I can get rich from gamble then I will not gamble anymore, I will make my offline business and make investment on gold. but I think there just in my dream  Grin
yeah agree with you. maybe if I become rich someday. I would not use gambling to my bitcoin growing methods. because it would be very risky for my wealth. I will use a more secure method but if I just play for fun in gambling. maybe it's not a problem?




As long as you keep it under control and as a hobby, gambling for fun will not put a risk to your wealth, so don´t worry.
yeah in this way it is completely normal and i think i would still gamble because playing slots is really interesting for me and i get entertainment with it

I know some people that do exactly that, they play slots mostly to relax after a difficult week on their jobs.
Slots are actually entertaining and it is more entertaining when you play it in a real casino. Rich people do spend more money in gambling but it does not make them worry because they are enjoying it even though they are losing their money, very opposite to the poor people who are in gambling.
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

well i think gambling while rich would be cool, because it would be hard to lose.
My big balance could always recover Cheesy

The odds are fixed and are the same for everyone, so it will be not harder to lose, you will win/lose in the same proportion as everyone else the only difference if you keep making the same bets that you did when you were poor is that your bankroll will be less affected by the possible losses. 

The question is, will you still be satisfied making the same amount of bet now that you have more money to spend? Will the thrill be the same if you are just betting a few hundred satoshis like when you are still poor? In my opinion, the amount you will bet will proportionally increase with the amount of money you have now. So, there are still chances the you can lose big and lose all your money.

coincidentally, there is a max limit of bets in both physical and online casinos so it might be a good parameter for the rich to stop or just make the cap as a session. The wise rich can have many tests and the loss of those tests won't affect his/her total bankroll. The rich can use the advantage of having big bankroll.

I think you treat gambling right, you are seeing gambling as an entertainment and not as money making. Because if we enter gambling places there are always a possibilities that we can lose.

There a limit on amount of winning from one bet, not amount. It was made so someone with bankroll bigger than casinos bankroll couldn't ruin the house or take a significant chunk. Because of this limit whales can only win a few percents of the house bankroll at best.

All the rich people do the same, they continue to gamble but not for getting more money they go there to casino only for entertainment and they spend only an amount of their money for getting entertainment at these casinos.

I think rich people would be mostly interested in interactive games like poker, or maybe visit real casinos instead of online, to socialize and and get some fun experience. And rich people should still maintain control, because they also might get addicted and lose significant amount in a short time.

Yes, because the real entertainment is there. Also, we can still see some rich people betting online and I can see they are also enjoying. One of the gambling games that can be enjoyed online are sports betting.

Exactly, if I will be rich also I would focus on sports betting because in our area there is no casino so I cannot get the entertainment. But with sports betting it is very entertaining and imagine if I can bet bigger then the more excitement I will feel, I just love sports so it makes me happy watching games live.

If I were also rich I will just gamble but I think not intentionally. Sometime I just gamble just because I just want to but I know that there is always a possibilities that I can lose money. I know the risk and I am ready for that. And I just use extra money so that even if I lose that is fine with me.

That's a good attitude, you need to play just for fun because you never know what gambling might bring unto you if you choose to aim for profit. Being rich is already a gift and though you have the freedom of doing things you like but also you need to be careful and secure your wealth all the time.

Will the thrill be the same if you are just betting a few hundred satoshis like when you are still poor? In my opinion, the amount you will bet will proportionally increase with the amount of money you have now. So, there are still chances the you can lose big and lose all your money.

Yes they can only win a few percent of the bankroll but they can do it many times right? And i say to hit 50 btc profit is not a impossible thing to do for such a big whale. Lets say betking.io and primedice, their big whale can get almost 100 btc. So do you think that some percentage really matter? Because that little percentage of them can let them win that huge amount

Correct. If they have many sessions and that sessions max bet is up to the maximum bet winning to casinos, then they can accumulate big money from playing those many sessions that in the first place, they can afford to build up. Having like 100 sessions with big bankroll each will go far compared to small bankrolls only

Something that can make us win in gambling is the only luck we can get when we use the gambling with the good and not to do it with something that is very greedy. We can't get something good things when we play in gambling with the greedy

Well its like that movie that came out last year. Can't remember the name. But there was a rich Chinese businessman who constantly lost bet after bet and he kept playing because he found it to be very fun. Maybe someone can recall the name but his bet in the movie was to guess a number of a player on a football or baseball game. And the main actors of the movie implanted the number in his head thru basic psychology and he ended up getting the correct number.
And in real life its a similar story. Where people are just bored and they just do it for fun, even if they lose all their money.

I guess i will not play gamble becayse gambling is not my hobby. I have so many money so what is the reason of doing that. Nothing . Maybe i decided to help poor people just like what bill gates doing. That is my goal in my life help others as much as you can.

ya i would because gambling can give us entertainment and we not really need money to do it because we already have it and can change purpose for why we gambling,

You can just donate your money to the gambling site owner if you want to do it for fun and ask him to let you play forever without gettiing your winnings....  Grin

I guess i will not play gamble becayse gambling is not my hobby. I have so many money so what is the reason of doing that. Nothing . Maybe i decided to help poor people just like what bill gates doing. That is my goal in my life help others as much as you can.

That's right, no need to gamble if you have enough money, no need to go greedy on everything since you can have it all without doing too much hard work...
