This is a simple question, but one with a much deeper meaning.

Have you ever considered the reason behind your gambling habit or in some cases addiction? Do you gamble for fun or do you gamble for potential profit?

Do you gamble because you are bored or because you have some medical condition that prevents you from going out to experience other type of entertainment?

Do you gamble, because you hope that a big jackpot will solve all your debt problems or that a big jackpot would fund your dreams?

We should always consider why we do specific things in life and if those things are constructive or damaging in some way and then evaluate our actions to prevent harmful situations.

Looking forward to your responses.  Cheesy

Because I will never have financial freedom unless I get very lucky, I simply don't have the capital to start a business even though I have many good ideas.  I realize its a hail mary but at least it is something, right.

Im sure that im still on the fun side but there are really times that you cant really avoid on not to look or do after with making profits.Its inevitable.
Do you gamble because you are bored or because you have some medical condition that prevents you from going out to experience other type of entertainment?
Gambling either online or physical doesnt matter yet there are lots of things for you to engage on without needing to gamble but people
do really like some thrills that do involves money most of the time.

Do you gamble, because you hope that a big jackpot will solve all your debt problems or that a big jackpot would fund your dreams?

Never ever in my life on hoping to these things.Gamble just for fun and winning jackpots is just a bonus.

I gamble for fun and a bit of adrenaline but if I manage to win some extra money from this activity I am happy.The first reason is to have some fun only that is why I am not a high roller but sometimes I see gambling as a last resort to earn some extra money.This happens rarely but it does happen.

You cannot be specific why you gamble,you gamble for many reasons.

I am sure you will get mixed bag of responses on your question. While a lot of people gamble to make some quick money, you will also find a good percentage of gamers who looks at it as an entertainment.

When I started making money online in 2009, I also tried to gamble with my earned money (I wasn't aware of cryptos then). The main motto behind gambling that time was to make some quick profit. But as I grew older and more experienced, I realized that I am not that lucky which will make me rich overnight! So I stopped playing slot and dice games and moved to forex trading. And trust me, forex trading was nothing less than gambling!

Now when I gamble, it's purely entertainment and I strictly keep my bankroll under control. If I make loss, I don't try to recover that loss by putting extra money in!

My gambling is basically on entertainment and fun becasue am afraid to be addicted. The most scary stuff on the planet earth now is; gambling, gamblers who are addicted to gambling aren't getting it fun when they lose in the process. Most gamblers died as a result of depression from gambling and, am afraid to get deep just becasue i needed quick money for myself.

I am not addicted in gambling but I think both was deeply needed why? Because fun makes you win the more you are enjoying the moment I believe the more winnings you will have. The same as gamble for profit of course that was our main goal sometimes. Honestly, i am more happier and had fun when I won a game it makes me more interested in the same thing.

I haven't considered much about why I gamble because my life has been care free and mostly without responsibilities. I think I gamble for potential profit but it's at least fun that I get.
Yes I gamble when I'm bored. I've lost a lot of money in gambling. And I feel guilty about it. I couldn't tell my family about it either.
In my experience, loneliness is one of the reason why people gamble, there are very few things in this real world to have fun with just money.

the above is all of my reason on why i play online gambling using cryptos but to be honest i rarely gamble locally ( offline ) , idk why but maybe because the pot prize or the potential profit is not high as i can see online  .  ever since i discovered crypto gambling online , im then attracted to the big jackpots and i  said to my self that if i win huge on online gambling i will give my wife and my family a better life but of course i dont go overboard and bet all that ive got . i still have a contol to my self and i still know the reality that gambling is a hard and risky game  .

Mostly for potential profit rather than fun because when you make some profit that's how it starts to get fun. It's kind of both for me but more on the profit side. I rarely find gambling fun, only when there's a contest or together with a friend.

Whenever I gamble I don't have that kind of expectation where I could win something big one day from gambling because the odds are always low if I chase those jackpots.

When I was in the initial stage of my gambling addiction, I also look to gamble for profits. But as I take the journey and experienced lots of ups and down in gambling, I realized that I can't go this for long. So as I mature, I just play just to have some fun and then some.

I no longer the addict that I used to be like 10 years ago, I just go and play if I have some extra money in my pocket and just enjoy it, win or lose.

I gamble because I want to have fun and at the same time gain profits. Gambling is a way for me to forget may problems for awhile, also it help me relax at some point and I don’t gamble more than what I can afford. I’m into gambling but I make it a point not to be addicted to gambling.

Before I gamble because i’m desperate to earn money, hoping that I will hit the jackpot one day and it will solve all my problems and pay my debts but as I play longer I lost most of the time but still continue thinking I will get the jackpot until I hit rock bottom, that’s when I realized gambling isn’t the solution to my problems so I tried really hard to forget gambling and look for other ways to earn money. Now I gamble very often and it is if I don’t have something to do and I use only my spare money.

I'm more of a traditional based player, so for some reason I'm attracted to the environment, the noise, the people around you, people you know because of gambling. So I just play and wasn't aware that I'm getting into the addiction that take me years to get out. If I hadn't lost my job or the easy money coming in before then I don't know I could be really in the 'zone' right now. So thankfully, I snapped, regroup and prioritized things so know I will just call myself recreational gambler and will just gamble with just enough money and exited when I'm out of ammunition or lost everything.

It happened to me too.I gamble every now and then just to hit the target and make huge profits but in the end,all i've got are just losses.So i started to realized that gambling is not meant to serve as a source of income but only just for fun and entertainment.Now i gamble just to have some fun,winning is just a bonus.

I'm not a seasoned gambler so I don't gamble all the time even to dice when I don't know whether a strategy will even work so the only reason why I gamble is because I wanna hit the jackpot. When a casino wants all the users to join them, even the not gambler are enticed to join when a jackpot money reaches up to $40K to which that only cost for you to have the chance to get that amount is $0.50 worth of EOS

Do you gamble, because you hope that a big jackpot will solve all your debt problems or that a big jackpot would fund your dreams?

Never ever in my life on hoping to these things.Gamble just for fun and winning jackpots is just a bonus.
But hoping to get a jackpot isn't the wrong thing right? I also have this desire, but it does not make me too hopeful and force me
to get a jackpot or big profit, the most important thing is that you are not affected to pursue it and are sad because of it!

I do gamble occasionally but I can see many people do gambling everyday. If you want to reduce the greediness and stop losing your money we can stay away from gambling or do occasionally.

That too used to do sports betting only.
If you lose your money please control your emotion and stay slow before the next game you gonna play.

Because gambling has become part of my hobby, but I don't do it everytime. I do gambling whenever I have extra money. Gambling on a limited time and money just to try my luck to feed my curiosity. I will stop whenever I lose my initial capital or when I reach my target. Doubling my initial balance will be enough as my target for the current condition.
