I would love to earn $2000 a month, then I would definitely spend some of my money for gambling every month. My expenses are not big, so a lot of it could be spent on losing and it would not be a problem for me. But I think it would be a bit pain to lose more than $100 per month.
By my own standard $100 is very reasonable amount for gambling per month which is 5% of the whole gross amount, for instance I will gamble on sportsbet blackjack bettings by splitting the $100 to 10X a win by betting with $10 amount to $210 of course there is the tendency to win once before I spend the whole $100, I believe this is one of the subtle way of betting without addiction and avoiding gambling with the $2000 monthly income and losing the whole money, however this requires discipline to avoid tempting of betting above the stipulated amount of money

We always read the words "Don't bet more than you can afford to lose", but are we really following that safe principle in gambling?
So, I have a question here, if you are earning like $2000 a month, how much are you willing to gamble that you think you can afford to lose? Please use the amount as a basis for your answer.
If I needed that 2k a month for expenses, bills, mortage or rent and car payments? I wouldn’t use any of it for gambling. Not sports, not poker, nothing... Here’s the thing, if you want to take gambling, sports betting or poker more seriously then you should have a separate bankroll for all your gambling stuff and have at least 6 months worth of savings for monthly expenses. But if you’re just gambling for fun... Just use a 50 bucks at most per weekend, split them 5 ways per bet in different events you enjoy... Better yet, just bet them on degen parlays. A full card parlay in a UFC event could win you 60k for a 10 dollar bet if it hits. Lol.

If someone does not have it and starts playing at the casino, it may end badly for him. I like to play slots so I think to do not do it too often I would split $100 into 4 and play up to lose max $25 per week. At low stakes, it could even be a few hours of fun.

I allocate no more than $100 to gambling regardless of my monthly earnings. I can afford to gamble or bet on a sporting event a couple of times a month. Some month I don't gamble at all. It depends on my mood. But if I lose $100 in 30 minutes of play I never make a deposit - it's kind of a rule I don't break.

It depends upon every individual on how much can he or she can afford the loss. Ideally, not more than 10% of the total capital should be lost. But since gambling is highly risky, people lose 50% of their capital in one month and may recover it in the next month. Luck factor matters most in all this.

I cant say the exact amount how much I'm willing to spend for gambling just based on my monthly earning. It will always be depending on how much I need to spend for my real life needs on that month. Once I've paid what I need to pay, and save some for unpredictable needs then I can use the rest but not all. IMO, the best amount to spend is not based on how much you earn on monthly basis but we should spend a spare money only which wont affect our daily life.

It's a shame to see but you cover a few good points, most casinos target the lowest income earners in society and they often times fail to comprehend the simple mathematical odds that will work against them in the long run. For every 100 people betting, 99 will lose but one might bounce above break even or even strike a reasonable win, but ultimately they surrender that money back to the house in a never ending carousel ride. If you want the thrill of winning big, you'd be better off just playing the lottery once or twice a month where the odds are still hugely stacked against you but their is an ever so tiny possibility that you'd at least win a life changing sum of money - instead of a few hundred, maybe thousand, which won't change much.

Unfortunately, it is often difficult to determine how much we can spend on gambling, because it may depend on our financial situation. It is a very comfortable situation if someone has no loans and unexpected expenses. In December, for example, I probably couldn't gamble for anything from the $2000, because of expense for Christmas. However, if there are months in which I have little spending, it could probably be as high as $500.

Most people isn't able to do that because they can't control themselves. When they lose that $100 (the amount is different for different people probably), they are likely to think: "what if my luck turns out this time?" and they spend another $100. Then the next thing they know is they are out of funds to go on. That's how they go bankrupt.

All these regulations where you can theoretically block yourself from playing on a casino don't really help. You could open accounts literally anywhere at anytime. I guess for some players who notice they might not have gambling under full control, the best choice is probably to not gamble at all. Easiest way to not get into the position to feel that you have to win something back.

Don't bet more than you can afford to loose. That's just a rephrase of the principle, don't invest more than you can afford to loose. It's just the same exact thing and to be sincere, very few if any follow through with this principle at all. Gamblers and investors are always stuck on the percentage they hope to gain or how much far they could double their funds as per staking power that they fully forget the risk of loosing. The reality is, you could always loose. That's why the other team or person has got an odd. That's the risk factor right there looking g at you and in some circumstances, it does come true and get expressed.
When it comes to how much a $2000 monthly earner can gamble, I'll say 5-10%. Anything off that could be considered out of line for me!

It depends on how many hobbies someone has. I think 15% on hobbies a month is quite a lot, but if someone is passionate about something, this may be the right amount. So if someone has 3 different hobbies, 5% for each should be enough. I think for the average person, $100 per month should be enough to have a lot of fun at an online casino.

Personally, I believe that if a person spends no more than $100 a month on gambling is the first sign that he does not have a gambling addiction and is quite able to control their budget. It happens that I spend $200 on gambling but I always split this amount into two different deposits and do not allow myself to spend more than $100 per day.

It happens that I spend $200 on gambling but I always split this amount into two different deposits and do not allow myself to spend more than $100 per day. I believe it is the other way around. First of all, the fact that someone is planning their gambling expenses is good. The problem arises when someone is unable to refrain from gambling, even when his budget has long been exceeded. Of course, each situation is different, because someone could for example won a larger amount before and now he can easily lose it, etc. Anyway, sticking to the budget is the most important thing to avoid troubles.

It's always a self define argument when talking or discussing how much you can afford to lose. There are gamblers who don't know that they are already exceeding from the amount that they are targeting to spend. When aggressions take control, there's no way that you can stop depositing more for your bankroll. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif)

When aggressions take control, there's no way that you can stop depositing more for your bankroll. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) Awareness of your actions and just using up your own common sense would or should be enough but people do really let theirselves get hooked and tolerate their greed inside which would really result into disaster thats why when you do deal with gambling you should really mind off the risks and if you do find out yourself earlier that you are bit impulsive then you shouldnt deal with gambling in the first place because this would really be a potential big problem into your life when things starts to mess up. Bet on the amount which you can afford to lose and if you are losing that much then its sensible for you to stop.

Personally, I believe that if a person spends no more than $100 a month on gambling is the first sign that he does not have a gambling addiction and is quite able to control their budget. It happens that I spend $200 on gambling but I always split this amount into two different deposits and do not allow myself to spend more than $100 per day.
I think that is way too much unless your monthly income is $10k+. You shouldn't allocate more than 5% of your income to gambling. You should treat it as an expense because you are mathematically guaranteed to lose it all given that you play with the funds for long enough. Would you spend $200 a month on movie tickets? Probably not. Have the right mindset.

I truly believe that the amount has nothing to do to determine if a person is already addicted or not. Being addicted is usual but the difference is, there's a thing called responsible and irresponsible addiction. There are gamblers who lose more money than we imagined but despite of it, they are still on themselves. Regardless of the amount spent in a given period, even how low it is, the addiction will be noticed by the gambler's action outside the gambling world. Like always irritated, skipping work, skipping meals, selling stuff even unnecessary, taking loans, borrowing money from family, close friends, etc.

However, gambling addiction cannot only be measured by how much you spend every day or every month on gambling, it is also measured on how frequent you gamble. Usually, a person will never know when he's addicted or not, because we always believe that we gamble normally even If it means that we don't have time for different thing other than our day jobs or business.

I only partially agree with you. It is true that it is dangerous to play too often, but when we have control over it, it's still okay. Problems begin when we play not only in our spare time, but when we neglect our responsibilities just because we want to play. The amount of money is also very important because if we are spending more than planned on gambling, it is a very bad sign.
