Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income

[slapper]

With play gamble with different derivatives, some play for pleasure only and why some people play gambles because of daily bread, who is playing gambling for pleasure does not being curious in gambling, because it take the results it gambles as fair, why people who play gambles for surviving seek is detriment to win and its the reason are being addicted unknowingly, for this explanation of gambling its something of choice and personal concerns, any wealthy man who partake in gambling don't take gambling as means of surviving but seeing gambling like catching cruise and fun with the leisure time

Playing gambling to meet the expenses of the daily bread, may look good in the short term but in the long term, this is not sustainable. No one in the gambling world be able to make constant wins and when one's bad luck starts and he/she loses in gambling, it would be a panic situation when you will not have the money to meet your expenses. Also, it creates an extra burden on the gambler to get wins daily and for this, they may play excessive gambling.

A person gambling with a fun mindset will be in a better position to make sensible decisions and calls in gambling as compared to a stressed mind who has only feelings to feed his family based upon the result of the gambling.

Sure, there are fleeting victories, which might be enchanting... but losses? They're catastrophic, aren't they? The idea of using gambling to "make ends meet" seems akin to a spiral staircase. You might ascend momentarily with every win, but one misstep (or loss, in this case), and you're tumbling back down, possibly even lower than you started. And you're right about the excessive gambling... the desperation for a win can lead to a dangerous escalation. The person gambling for fun versus out of necessity – that’s a significant distinction. The latter would indeed be more susceptible to stress and irrational decision-making. However, would the same not hold true for any financial decision taken under duress?

This is often the attitude of someone who has become an addict and those who see gambling as a source of income. Otherwise when you understand gambling as a game channelled by luck and you played for a very long time without luck on your side then reasonably you should quit believing it is not your luck but when you keep believing you will win , well you should have the financial capacity to wait more longer incase the rain will fall on your planted crops but that usually the way people get addicted, because winning to the extent of recovering your losses will be difficult as you keep playing and losing contributing to the initial lose and jackpot may be illusive.

It's even crazy to think that you can keep winning until you recover all your losses at once. Even if you think you can come back the next day and recover your loss (of course, that's madness), you will never recover any loss; instead, you will even encounter more losses that day. If the gambler keeps repeating day after day with the thought of recovering every loss they have gambled off, then they will become addicted, like you said. In gambling, whatever is gambled off is gone; you will not get it back unless you manage to win hugely and then decide to leave, because if you don't, you will definitely lose everything again to the game. Those whose addictions don't harm anyone can continue until they realise themselves. It's really exhausting to talk a compulsive gambler out of his addictions.

Of course gamblers like that are crazy, because only those who aim to chase defeat will make gamblers even more miserable. Because it is impossible to return, and it is also impossible to make gambling a source of income and it is highly discouraged, because gambling is the opposite place, namely a place to spend gambler's money.
and gambling or betting carries the risk of significant financial loss. This is really not a reliable way to make money, and in fact can be addictive and cause significant financial and personal problems.

The nature of the attitudes and goals of each person who gambles is different and only a small number have the goal of gambling for fun while most of the others are pursuing profits in order to have income from gambling.
Of the many gamblers, in my opinion, the most difficult ones to advise and direct are only old gamblers who already have the determination and ambition to always win, different from new gamblers because when they get one or two defeats they can still be directed to still have control over themselves alone when gambling.
That's true, but the risk will be forgotten if the gambler has big ambitions to win and this kind of thing has often happened so far.

[piebeyb]

After gambling soooo many years, sky city Auckland, the star Sydney, crown Melbourne, nationalcasino.com, stake.com platinum5 (sylviegreta), wolfbet.com......still struggle hard to become a professional gambler......This is the inmost thing on yourself......Others are the camouflage of the essence of gambling. If these opinions make you find the right direction, I will be super happy.

And I assume also that for that long of been in gambling, you find yourselves as a loser. It means that it is hard to rely on ourselves into gambling and consider this as a source of income. If we are going to gamble, we are aware that this $1,000 in our pocket has no assurance to multiply but possibly it becomes $0. We better expect to lose rather than to win but of course, it is much better to think that we gamble because we want to, not because we chase to win big otherwise, we got only disappointed.

Yes, your assumption is correct, because no one will ever succeed in earning an income from gambling and everyone will only end up being losers, after all, gambling just being obsessed with becoming a professional gambler is impossible, let alone gambling just looking for victory will really make us disappointed in the end. maybe the OP hasn't found a way to control himself yet.

Playing gambling should only be for fun without having to force yourself to make money in it and achieve something you want, looking for income elsewhere by working or trading might give us a definite income compared to gambling which could make our money run out to $ 0 and that's why I prefer to gamble for fun, because it won't make me disappointed in the end 

[ethereumhunter]

You would definitely 100% fail on this one if you would really be having plans on making gambling as your source of income on which it would really be that not just that right on doing so, considering that gambling

is for entertainment or fun and it shouldnt really be treated up that way on which you would really be making yourself that making as your source of income which it would be impossible for someone to sustain.
Instead on making money then you would eventually lose more which is something that you should really be needing to control on because if you cant be able to make yourself that realize on what
are the things that you must do, then you would really be making yourself that prone on committing and experiencing those huge mistake.

You should not really be that able to do things which arent supposedly to be done.We know that there are things in life or in this world which it isnt really that applicable on such category.

Only a few can make money from gambling and make gambling their main income and others will meet failures that can spend all their money without any leftovers and even cause problems in their life. We can only use gambling to get pleasure and never think about making money from gambling.

But it seems that people still don't care about that because many people still try to make money from gambling and even try to use gambling as their main income. They should be aware of this and look elsewhere to make money because that will give them a better chance of making money.

gambling is the way of life for most old gamblers, hence, they are hard to persuade to change their route. they know what they are into, so you are just wasting your time trying to convince them to have a different perspective on what they are doing. they may not treat this as their main source of income, but some of them are relying on this habit to earn something.
i can agree that some sports bettors can make a living from their bets, but that is, if you live and breath a specific sports that you already have a good history of winnings. also, with some poker players. but if you say, you want to make a living by playing those casino classics, i highly doubt you're on the right track.

Im not really that a fan on tending on going or minding others business because its none of our business in the first place.  We do have different plans and approaches on things on how we would really be gonna
spending our money on which if ever there's someone who would really be heavily spending out their money on gambling then just let them be.If there were people who do really spend out money just to earn money and treating it as an income then just let them be.

On the time that they would really be experiencing problems then this is the time they would really be able to realize on what are the things should really be done and on how gambling should really be treated.
If you arent really that mindful about your actions then you would definitely be facing up some consequences later on which it would really be just that a normal thing to happen if you
dont have that kind of control towards self.

People often learn from their mistakes, and when it comes to gambling, some may try to see if they can make money from it. However, it's important to note that gambling should not be relied upon as a consistent source of income. Relying solely on gambling for income would mean leaving a stable job for something uncertain.

It would be a really bad move to change a stable job for gambling,while you may be great at sport betting or texas holdem poker where skill is prevalent compared to luck but still the referees can impact the game in such way that you lose your game.While there are people,at least on TV who we see on Pokerstars who are living on gambling as proof,the reality is those who are doing it can be counted with the fingers of one hand.

Therefore even great gamblers,people who have won multi million dollar jackpots have lost them again in gambling because of their addiction,so gambling cannot be considered as a success if you try to live by it,many people have failed even those who have won the jackpots because of gambling uncertainty or the certainty that in the long run you will lose.

It will not be recovered, still when today you have a big enough loss and then try tomorrow to come back just to recover then it is bad thinking because so easily they can recover the loss in yesterday's gambling, when it is clear that this will not happen, if you try continuously then what will happen is still a failure by losing a lot of money again, this is already a behavior for addicts because they continue to think with uncertainty.

In gambling should be more simple and fun, let's say you lose this then never try to bet again just rest your mind and can come back next time.
If it is big enough then go out and enjoy the money, don't be too greedy because if you are greedy in the end with a big win it will become a defeat again and he will regret it in the end.

I agree that it is not a wise decision to neglect our stable job and focus on gambling as the main source of income.  Since gambling result is random even with skill base gambling, there is no assurance that we will win even though we are very well versed with the team and aspects of the sports since there is always a thing called variables that are only affected by the randomness of the event.  Unlike a stable job that can give us a good fix source of fund, gambling on the other hand may or may not give us the profit and we all know that gambling often lead to losses due to the house edge and games being designed that way.

Therefore even great gamblers,people who have won multi million dollar jackpots have lost them again in gambling because of their addiction,so gambling cannot be considered as a success if you try to live by it,many people have failed even those who have won the jackpots because of gambling uncertainty or the certainty that in the long run you will lose.

I think it is the lack of financial knowledge and financial management that lead these jackpot winners to end up worse than before they won the jackpot.

The chance of doing that is really something unusual if you're still thinking the right way. I mean, for leaving your job in exchange for taking gambling as the main source of your income, we all know that the uncertainty of the gambling place or the outcome can't be as accurate as we can think of, unless you will serve as the casino itself, or you'll be making your company have a wide reach and use that influence to make more referrals.

Its a loop that falsely promises recovery after every loss. Filling a bottomless pit is useless and exhausting. Gambling is meant to be fun, not profitable. Thus, one must proceed cautiously. Gambling is full of thrills and unpredictability, so stay balanced.

Your greed observation is funny yet sobering. Greed often destroys people. Wisdom is knowing when to stop, not winning large. Lets cooperate and promote responsible gambling so everyone can enjoy the game without falling prey to its darker side.

Things that I personally think you can do if you choose gambling as a major venue for your income-generating sources

As a player/gambler - it was not an income-generating resource. But if you are the owner and stop your day job just for the sake of running a gambling business, that was a good choice. Indeed, it was a big mistake from relying on our future for luck and we use our hard-earned money thinking that we can double it. We can't go into falling influencers encouraging us to gamble and earn more because the truth is that the more we gamble, the more lose. In this case, there is enjoyment happen but we are now chasing our losses.

[Webetcoins]

I don't really see gambling as a main source of income since it isn't a stable one. But I just want to share that I also experienced it. I experienced a moment where I don't really have much other source of income that time since I don't have a work yet. Then I started sportsbetting (not my first time), I only bet small amount of money then I experienced winning quite a big amount (compared to the money I bet) twice. My second win was just few days after the first win. Then I also have small wins that time. It was all on sportsbetting so I was feeling the moment. I was able to enjoy my winnings, buying things I want and need but I continued gambling and after that, I kept on losing till I used all the spare funds I have for sports betting.

In conclusion, maybe it was just a luck, but luck isn't always on your side so you can't rely on gambling to be your main source of income.

One can't constantly lose and similarly, one can't constantly win, that's how gambling is. So it is never a recommended thing to be considered as a source of income because you might win a lot of money someday, but you will eventually lose it back if you keep gambling, and if you don't gamble anymore, you won't have any money once the one you've won is over, so one should always have a main source of income and gamble only to have some fun and if they manage to win something out of it, they are lucky.

I have seen a lot of people who tried to use gambling as their source of income, some of them even had pretty big bankrolls, but at the end of the day, none of them succeeded and they lost everything they had eventually and started looking for other ways to earn money.

It is a mistake to have a big bankroll and only focus on gambling. The best would have been to diversify into other businesses whether online or offline because only a source of income doesn't give financial stability. In gambling, the tendency to keep playing after you lose the first time is very high because you want to regain what you have lost and if you start the chase you won't want to stop half way because you have already committed part of your bankroll on the chase as you keep losing. So it is quite tempting with big bankroll, if not careful, all will be used up with out winning.

I agree that putting all our money to gambling is like risking our future since gambling result is random, putting all our money on gambling is like standing on a shaky ground.  I also agree that we must diversify our funds so that if one investment is not performing well, others might support it.

While gambling is fun, we must be responsible enough to know the possible effect if we just let ourselves indulge on the fun of gambling.  So instead of putting all our time and effort in making gambling as our main source of income, we must look for other sources of income in order for us to not fell short on finance if our gambling activities produce a bad result.

[Mate2237]

Assume all guys here are gamblers. So, no people can have moral advantage than others. No Judge.

What a wrong perception, why must you think that everyone here is a gambler. Many people are post in gambling boards because of the campaign requirement if not they don't know anything about sports. So you can't assume that everyone is a gambler in the forum. If you carefully look at some users post here in the gambling board you will confirm it. The real gamblers can still give judgement on the partial gamblers.

Trying to convince professional gamblers with different perceptions is a difficult challenge because they have their own goals and beliefs so it's not easy to accept advice from other people.
Once I tried it but it was in vain because they think of us as new people who have far below experience.
If it is profitable, indeed when we win, we can get profits, but to make a living, everything is not worth the number of losses that have been received so far.
I only consider winning as a form of return to return to betting at a later date and I can have fun without having to deposit a certain amount of money.
