Is There A Time That You Calculated All Your loses In One Year

[Zilon]

So I stopped counting my losses and just minimize my betting I just tried to be happy on the thought that I have good times betting and I enjoy the thrill.

I think if one can mange the emotion that comes with counting gambling losses it won't really be bad if the keep counting because that way it will help make better budget either to cut down on their betting or maintain the same pace. It won't be advisable for someone who lost so much in previous year to increase the betting in preceding year that is why I feel to stop counting might not be the best practice for a gambler

Is There A Time That You Calculated All Your loses In One Year One Online and Offline

In one year? No. But I sometimes checked my previous wager (in online casino) to see how much money I lost already. It doesn't mean i'm regretting my decision that I gamble since it's not that much, but more on thinking how many times I won because it's rare.

It would be better to reduce the amount of money to gamble so that if you calculate how much you lose in gambling, the amount will be less.

I never counted but maybe I just looked at the numbers and forgot about it. But I am very serious about not overstepping my limits lest I lose a lot of money gambling. I know that gambling, there will be more losing moments so that's what I have to reduce.

Therefore it would be better if gambling always plans funds that must be prepared to lose by a small amount so that there will be no regrets when one day you want to calculate the total money at betting.

Yes, rather than regretting after seeing the number of losses, it is better to use the funds we can afford so we won't be sad. But there are still people who bet more than their budgeted funds and in the end, many experience that defeat. It just wouldn't be worth the risk, so they should reduce their gambling budget. If they can think clearly that gambling does not give money quickly, they may not be so eager to play gambling.

It is almost impossible to count your losses, if you win and you also withdraw your losses and then deposit again and also count all the money that you spend on lottery tickets and also count the small amounts that you win.... but with a great deal of effort, it might be possible.

If you are going to do that, then you should also calculate the amount of money that you spend on other things, like Fast food / Movies / Streaming services / cigarettes / Alcohol ... etc. The total amount will also astonish you, because it is an expenditure over a long period.

What a wild thought, right? It's like throwing a wide-angle lens on our bread flow, catching all the ins and outs. The big picture of finance isn't just about marking where the dough comes from, but also noting its disappearing act. This, I reckon, hits the nail on the head of your argument.

On the flip side, the grind to keep tabs on every nickel and dime can feel like climbing Everest, more so when we're talking about those knee-jerk spends or the losses from dicey bets or scratch-offs. Yet, if played smart, this whirlwind of numbers could spin out some eye-opening patterns and turn on the light towards major bread-winning. It's walking the thin line, somewhere between being penny-wise and having a blast.

As for tallying up the bucks blown on other stuff, the sticker shock of that total is well worth the mental gymnastics. The aim isn't to slide into a guilt-trip, but rather to switch on the awareness bulb. As the old saying goes, knowledge is the big boss. Getting the hang of our spend habits puts us in the driver's seat of our finance vehicle, allowing us to hit the gas towards our goals.

This is the most depressing thing to do, you'll be surprised at the amount,  I did this 4 years ago on offline number betting and Lottery I kept all the tickets I sometimes win 3rd and 4th prizes but every time I won consolation I increase my tickets I consider this a sign that I will hit the jackpot soon but unfortunately it never happens.

When I count all my losses on numbers and the lottery it's enough to buy a small parcel of a lot and build a bungalow type and we're just renting a room back then.

Again I did it 3 years ago when I become active in online casinos and the amount is also depressing I could have bought a tricycle that I can use for a living.

So I stopped counting my losses and just minimize my betting I just tried to be happy on the thought that I have good times betting and I enjoy the thrill.

I can easily do that because I just put a certain amount of money every single month, and I do not wager more than that. I can't really say if I lost it all, because there were some periods when I won so it is not like it was 100% full on loss, sometimes I got it back.

But at the end of the day, I know exactly how much I can lose at maximum per month, and that means same for per year as well. This allows me to feel right, because I spend about half of one months salary on betting for a full year, and I am not even losing all of it neither, so it is better than that. That has been the key to my success for many years now, it has been about 10 years since I started doing it, and ever since I started doing that, it hasn't been all that bad.

I keep a constant record of all plays/ betting expenditures and revenues.
on various gambling sites I have "blocks" and limits on the total that I can deposit and in general I always keep track of the monthly and annual progress.
Why? Optimizing results and having a clear plan of what's going Is a must for all gambler that doesnt waste (too much) money

Hmmm you got a point as well. And I think it is also necessary for book keeping when you are paying for taxes. Honestly I don't want to track because it makes me sad and frustrated but I think I need to, so that my expenses are organized and I can track if I need to spend a little bit less in gambling and put it on other needs. Hmmm I think I will make an excel file for it soon.

[Zackgeno96]

Many players keep a record of all amounts won, but not all amounts lost. I don't think that gives you a pleasant feeling either, if you have to make a list of all the losses achieved, it can't possibly turn out well. Players find it much more fun to keep a record of amounts won by a player. And yet it would be the best for a strategy because that is the only way you can keep your own management if you are going to play or have played with a bank role.

You'll just not feel right when you're counting your losses. You're not a businessman to count all of your losses but you're a gambler and all that matters are your winnings.

Kidding aside, there's half truth on that and it depends on how you look on your experience and gambling activities. If you think that it's important for you to track your losses, I guess everyone does but it will only come once or a few times that you'll think of counting all of it in a year or with your entire gambling career.

Fortunately, I never count my losses

Every time I play and lose, I just let it go, never record it, and even try not to remember how many times I lost. The important thing is that I still have a balance in my gambling account so that I can play gambling again the next day or the next few days. I'm not a businessman, so I don't count the losses and profits and don't use gambling as a place to make a profit.

That's a better approach being a gambler but there will always be a gambler that always count their losses. Honestly, if you don't want to see how you're doing, you shouldn't count your losses.

But if it's just for the sake of looking what your progress is then that's up to you if you think it's fine then that's fine.

And if that's how you do it by remaining a few amount for your convenience so that you can still gamble again, that's nice. Because you're planning it well.

If I want to go back and check the amount of loss I have accrued on gambling, it will be impossible because all my betting life has been on the Sportybet and as soon as I sight any lost ticket, I delete it from my bet history. I am doing that to let my mind of the losses I have had, there is no point in checking a prediction that didn't come as I want, I can't frowning face on the past, I do keep my profits though just to calculate and compare with the amount I deposited monthly, this helps me understand how much I have made and if I have been over betting, under betting or just wasting my hard earned monthly money.

This is how should people would really be that having these kind of limits when it comes into their spending and not just that having that no limitation kind of spending through gambling.
In my case on which i dont really have that kind of behavior on trying to look back on how much i had lost in gambling because it would really just stress me out but i dont really mind or really that getting stressed because i know that the amount that i do spend is the amount that i could really able to lose and not really that spending up my life savings. Gambling isnt really that bad as long you are really that responsible when you do gamble. Each of us whether we do really like gambling or not or something that we do really have a past time or something that we would really be able to be
entertained and this is where some people do make out some choices to gamble or other activities on which we do really be able to spend our time.
Calculating losses is something that not that important because if you do really look up with those numbers then you might regret it. 

[Sirait]

This is a question that, in my opinion, is definitely only done by a few people because the majority immediately forget how much losses they experienced when gambling every day. and I myself have never counted how much money I loss on gambling in a year, I really can't do it

It doesn't feel like you are losing a lot when you are losing it little by little but when you count all your losses, they will definitely sum up to be an amount that could be of great use in your life, and it can be depressing obviously but I believe that can also motivate you to stop gambling or at least reduce your gambling activities so that you don't lose that much money again in the future.

I personally never did that because I don't keep a count at all about when and where and how much I have spent on gambling, but I'm sure about one thing which is that I have lost a lot of money if counted and summed up, so I just can't do it but that's just an estimate.

[Pierre 2]

I think budgeting is like the best thing you can ever do with your money. In my opinion every gambler should at least try to calculate their monthly loses and should calculate how much of it can be covered by their wages. Regular microsoft excel can help a lot in such thing. I understand why many gamblers consider it as very painful experience BUT it can help with your future of gambling. If you can handle your funds nicely with amounts given, you can actually start to feel even better gambling. Don't treat it as nightmare guys.

[piebeyb]

When I played gambling at that time I was aware that gambling had the risk of losing money, so what is the point of calculating losses in a year or years I gambled, I thought it would only make us discouraged and regret that defeat, so why count it? nor will it serve us to regret the money we have spent on gambling nor will we ever get it back if we do the math.

Everyone knows that regret always comes last, so don't ever regret the amount of money that has been spent at the gambling table, whether it's offline or online, the point is to just keep playing looking for fun to get lucky at gambling, whether it's gambling in casinos or sports betting, stop to calculate losses. play with money that you are prepared to lose it.

I don't think it's even a good idea to be counting the losses over time, it may sound to discourage one from gambling seeing the numbers of attempts made and how everything has resulted into loss, though some gamblers may be that good at keep records of every gambling attempts they made for reference purpose but this isn't also a good idea because it has no important use of where necessarily applicable.

Honestly, this has never crossed my mind. But now that you have mentioned it, I will go ahead and give it a try. It is part of being a responsible gamble. It shows discipline and responsibility. However, my records would include to wins and losses. I'd do this for 6 months and see what comes out of it.

This is the most depressing thing to do, you'll be surprised at the amount,  I did this 4 years ago on offline number betting and Lottery I kept all the tickets I sometimes win 3rd and 4th prizes but every time I won consolation I increase my tickets I consider this a sign that I will hit the jackpot soon but unfortunately it never happens.

You may not even be the only one in this ship. If other gamblers do the same thing, they would be amazed at how they have lost and where those lost monies who have gone into that you have made their lives better.

So I stopped counting my losses and just minimize my betting I just tried to be happy on the thought that I have good times betting and I enjoy the thrill.

Have a plan, set a gambling budget. Be accountable to someone. If you can't do it, go on self-exclusion.

And this is the problem that happens to most gamblers. yep, they count or remember their losses within a certain time. As a result, without realizing it, we often play just to catch up on losses instead of enjoying the thrill of the game. be it sports gambling, or a type of casino gambling.
Imagine, as you said in this thread. if you do the math, you can buy a tricycle. even though you were very aware before, gambling is entertainment that contains risks in it. but to be honest, I have experienced it in the past, I lost the contents of my savings for 1 year. I spent it at the casino offline, even I still remember what game I was playing at that time. well, if we try to calculate it, you will only get pressured psychologically. because after all, almost 99% of the money that has been lost will not come back to us.

So, what we need to change is the mindset. gamble just for fun without expecting high wins. in particular, on slot machine games. doesn't mean, we let our money just disappear. it's just that, we change our mindset to make gambling a part of fun entertainment. but with conditions, money that can afford to lose and without affecting our finances. That way, you and I can enjoy gambling more relaxedly without being pushed under high pressure.

Yes I have made this kind of thing before and even went further than that and added up all the money I spent gambling over the years, and in my particular case the amount is not that high, now some people may argue that you may have spent that amount of money something else, and while that could have been possible, at the same time we need to entertain ourselves from time to time, as it is impossible to just work and save every single dollar that we earn at our jobs.
