Gambling responsibly, is it possible or myth?

[crzy]

Gambling responsibly is like smoking responsibly - you don't get your ass bitten off immediately right now but somewhere further into the future. The more responsible you are the greater the delay would be that you might not be even alive by then to feel it!  

I don't see it that way.

Gambling is a risk on your finances, while smoking is on your health.
Whatever you do in smoking, everything could result to damage of your health, however gambling could not be a risk if you will just play for fun
and also if you have the discipline to be able to resist temptation.

Both of you made good points. Gambling can also affect the health of gamblers a little damaging in the form  addiction

Gamblers have to be responsible  for the sake of health and finance.

Gambling has really have a bad effect into the emotion of every gambler in the long run because we are being greedy as time goes by. Gambling may not be the exact reason to be broken but if you don’t know how to control it, it can eat your whole body and makes you mode weak.

True. Gambling if not properly controlled may misled us and will make our own lives miserable in the end. So if you want to gamble, make sure you know how to control your emotions from not becoming too greedy which will definitely put you into a worst situation. But honestly, i also see people who are really good in gambling and are able to gamble responsibly.

You don't win but at least you don't loss more than you can afford to lose.
Gambling for fun and gambling for profit both requires discipline, this could make you succeed by not losing more than you can afford to lose or for those who wants profit, they can succeed with discipline. We just have to choose which fit on our purpose, as we cannot pursue the profit if we don't have the skills.

That’s right. Whether gambling for fun or for money, if there’s no discipline, it will still lead to disaster because some people who are suffering from addiction today started by only playing for fun. Some never imagined it will get to a point in their life they would become so addicted to the game but if only it was controlled at the beginning.

If everyone can apply discipline in playing gambling, there will be no stories of how someone got ruined by playing gambling. So the idea is for whatever reason we gamble, weather for fun or for money, we have to apply discipline from the onset of the game and never gamble what we cannot afford to lose.

Until we don't harm others gambling isn't a evil thing. People out of emotional stress due to the loss happened with gambling sometimes go out of control to the extreme and harm the people next to them. This is the evil thing with gambling, if one is spending his money and losing he should have the mind to accept it.

You have a good point because many times people just think it’s only those who gamble for money that gamble without discipline but the reality is anyone can actually gamble irresponsibly. In short it is possible that the highest numbers of gamblers who play without discipline are the so called gamblers that play for fun. Too much of fun can also lead to addiction, or why do we drug and sexual addiction. They all happen out of fun.

Addiction works with time. Those that spend too much time playing the game will someday become addicted so it’s better for every player to play moderately. Let’s always have it at the back of the mind that spending too much time on a casino site is wrong. Set alarm on how many hours we wish to spend each day.

We take risks for ourselves. The important thing is that we can still maintain a family situation and we can provide what they need. Gambling is a fun thing for someone who is right to use it, but please be careful of people who cannot exercise good control. Dare to do so we must be prepared to be responsible.

The good thing about gambling is that other people do not get harm if we play gambling. In case of win, it is the gambler who gets benefits and in case of loss too it is the gambler who gets the pain. It is one activity or game which directly effects the user itself who is playing.

When money is their motivation for playing then why they need to care about these advice.Gambling can cause losses and it need to be accepted by the players or they are not fit for gambling and eventually will suffer from serious losses if they continue to gamble.

It's possible to gamble responsibly, except for those that are major addicts.
BTW, I found an interesting blockchain gambling platform.

I would say that gambling responsible is quiet impossible. It is just like asking a woman to give birth to a baby without experiencing labor pain. I think the game have been made in a way that self-control hardly works no matter how hard we try.

I have tried to setting aside a certain amount to wager but I end up adding more, there’s just this temptation to gamble more, before I started receiving trolls of those who would tag me a greedy gamer, please note that this is not about playing for money, I actually play for entertainment, even though I always desire to make money, but the interesting aspect of gambling has a way of always wanting me to double my bets.

There was a point I quit gambling for months with the hope of coming back a different player, but nothing has changed. I am not a compulsive gambler anyway because I don’t gamble what I cannot afford to lose but my point is that it is just difficult to set limit when it comes to gambling.

[Cosbycoin]

Some people can do it well. most taoi cannot take responsibility properly. when we play gambling, a lot of temptations arrive. that's why the importance of self-control, every gambling player must be able to ensure that they can avoid bad things, without that ability they will not get a good future.

That's why they loss, without discipline would not make you safe in gambling, yes, we loss but we can control the risk if we are responsible.
Without discipline will lead to addiction and when addiction gets in your system, it would make you destroy your own self.
We can prevent these if we know the risk, then we take proper actions.

In my opinion, you can never win all the time in gambling even if you call it a responsibility. Winning in gambling is a myth like probability a mystery. You do not understand it at all and you cannot make sure you would win in a particular game because it is a random chance and that means that you would either win or loose. Making it an obligation or responsibility will just make you a one degree more serious.

You don't win but at least you don't loss more than you can afford to lose.
Gambling for fun and gambling for profit both requires discipline, this could make you succeed by not losing more than you can afford to lose or for those who wants profit, they can succeed with discipline.

Well there are immense surprises in the world of gambling. At times, you might jet get picked for a lottery out of a million more participant and at others, you might loose it among five of them. So you just cannot be so sure as to be responsible for a win. In gambling, you cannot be a responsible winner and if you think so, you are an irresponsible fool. So yeah, play for your own satisfaction and you could be a winner and looser but he loss should be in your set boundaries.

Gambling is a fun thing for someone who is right to use it, but please be careful of people who cannot exercise good control. Dare to do so we must be prepared to be responsible.

Self control is really vital in gambling. some years back I had a neighbor that was a compulsive gambler, he sold all his properties, borrowed money from a lot of people just to gamble, this action later made him and him families homeless and that was an unwise decision.

I believe that act would have been avoided if he had self control. The best kind of control is controlling the time spent in playing the game, and then has self-control. Too much time on the game can lead to addition and with time this can bring damage to family.

It's not a myth if someone is able to successfully do it. And a lot of people are able to juggle their responsibilities with their hobbies and entertainment pretty well. There are just a number of people who are having a hard time doing so and they are the ones who get more attention.

Nice topic but its not always happening to everyone even if they set goals. Everyone has a different level of thinking and principles so their actions vary from their principles and the way they think. For example, they consider gambling as one source of income, that will be dangerous for them, some consider gambling as time pass and just to be entertained and that one is less harmful because they are not expecting too much when they play. When they finish their allotted time they go home or they stop while the one with the goal of earning will not stop until they finish their money in their pocket or until they win.

That is very true. It is more of individual's preferences when it comes to gambling.
So I consider myself the one who finished their allotted time and go home-type thing.
I've been in actual casinos before and I've learned my lessons already, maybe that's the reason why I live up to this mantra now.
So being a responsible gambler is not a myth. It is very possible if you have the strength to fight your inner desires.

Addiction is the reality that we are trying not to discuss, but this gambling section are very open for that. These advice from the OP are indeed a good one, gambling takes a lot of responsibility and you can’t just play without it. If you get addicted start over your life again, remember why are keep on fighting despite of the problem. You have to be responsible, goal minded and stop messing around.

You can also be a responsible gambler if you chose to. You can gamble with the amount you can afford to lose and if you lose that time, just go home without any regrets. Addiction in gambling is the number one cause that will destroy a life of a gambler so if you think you are heading for it, better divert your time into some productive hobbies or skills.

It is possible for responsible, mature adults who think of gambling as a form of entertainment, and are able to set a limit to the amount of money and time spent in a casino. However, it is virtually impossible for immature, irresponsible persons with addictive personalities who think that gambling is a way to generate an income.
