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

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

It is foolish to think of gambling as a source of income because the chances of success are very low. Its results never bring anything good.

Hey it is not to say that some bettors are not benefiting from gambling because if there is patronage, that means people still have benefit derived from it but the issue is to so rely on it for a livelihood which is the focus. There are casinos here that have been around for years and that means they are having traffic and lots of customers to be able to sustain the business, run ads and pay signature participants including payment of direct staff. You can only gamble responsibly by having personal control not to over gamble.

Some players may be benefiting from gambling, they may see it as income but it shouldn't be seen that way, because anyone who is inexperienced and wants to see gambling as significant income will be totally deluded into thinking that if something like this can be done, it can be done. Let him start in the game and do well, but when he starts to play poorly and runs out of money, how will he do then? who is going to go to, the casino does not have any type of Protection for players who run out of money and that is something that only each one can control, that is why seeing the casino as an important income is a very bad Thought , if they can win some Players , but we don't know how much Money they can spend without Affecting their Lives.

We have to accept that all gamblers cannot be thesame which also means there are many conditions attached to why some people gambles, to some, they take it as a means of survival and they make money from it, some hardly know how they could earn from gambling, therefore they wish to earn but couldn't and concentrate on gambling alone, everyone cannot at the same time rely on gambling for a source of living because there's risk in doing that, knowing that gambling does not guarantee perfect result for winining.

There may be some of them who have income from gambling, at first glance it seems unlikely but it could happen. Also I honestly never thought that they could get regular results or consistent wins there just by relying on luck. It's very difficult to control the risks if someone insists on making a living in gambling, there's very little they can do there. For those who are still there with high assumptions regarding gambling, I hope they can soon realize the reality of gambling. They should be able to divert some of their time to other activities, adding a part-time job is very good, and with that I also think they will be able to forget about gambling a little bit. If they continue to pursue something that is impossible then they will feel a significant downturn in it.
Lastly I would remind them that gambling is very high risk, and as you said there is nothing certain in it except luck.

Gambling can be a major income if you're a streamer that get paid regularly by the casino and you're not risking any money since the casino give you free money to gamble. Regardless the outcome is whether you make money or lose, it's just a free money and it's used for marketing purpose.

If you're just an average gambler where you gamble with your real money, you will not able to make gambling as a major income.

If they have experienced a loss before they can get a win, they should be able to stop immediately while they are getting a win. Especially if they will never know when they will be able to win again, and if they continue to play gambling, it also does not guarantee they can get another win. So it's better if while they manage to win, they better stop to calm themselves down.

This is the tricky part when it comes to gambling discussion for self control. It’s very hard to do that in actual compared to just a theory since human curiosity and greedy will always block our ability to think logically when we are on the influence of gambling entertainment.

It’s very easy to suggest for someone to stop when they loss but you will not understand the feeling when you are on the actual scenario of losing your money on the middle of gambling.

I agree with you on that because I have seen many who get so involved in the theory and when it comes to taking the right actions to apply such self control,  their always fail to do so because doing have always been harder than saying and that is why the great water said,  it is easier said than done so for self restrictions to be effective,  one must align the talk with action because in this situation it is the action and consistency that matters.

Gambling addictions have always been as a result of over bearing relaxation and unable to apply a stop point even when you going in whichever ways be it losing or you winning.

That is the clarity of the question I asked above. Although I cannot quote I because it has gone so many pages pass.
Streamers that get paid regularly can be comfortable to say that gambling is their source of income in as much as the company that pays them keeps operating. This means if you earn from gambling related activities without you gambling yourself, it is earning from gambling.
This is more secured than someone who is risking their money to earn more money.

Though it's still part of a gambling business but as the essence of the topic, gambling that relates to people who are playing or betting, meaning to say that it's involve money from the person itself and not an affiliate or a bankroll from the house, you can make money from that view, owning a casino or streaming a site and being paid both pay ads and the viewers rewards from whatever socmed or media platform that you use.

[LUCKMCFLY]

It is true that gambling is easy, but winning gambling is difficult. Gamblers must think that they can only get entertainment from gambling, which is another bonus if they manage to win. And they shouldn't need to chase another win so that they won't experience another defeat. They have had enough wins before that they need to quit ASAP or they will lose their winnings. We have to learn more from professional gamblers to avoid losing money and become professional gamblers.

if gamblers are only looking for the pleasure to get from gambling games, I'm sure they won't leave the game because of a win. especially if the game is just at the beginning of the game.
every gambler has the hope of getting a win. although all gamblers also know that their chances of winning are also smaller than the chances of losing. every gambler has the hope of winning, that's what keeps them playing. there's nothing wrong with it at all.

Well, we cannot deny that when it comes to casinos and players, they will always be done so that the players have that hope of always winning, even though it is something that is not guaranteed, because everything depends on luck, because you have to have clear something, we have the option of always stopping when things go against us, this is like trading, you can stop when you need to stop losses, not give long losses because that is to continue losing money, so I don't know may falter in that regard.

We as players know that when we enter a casino, our thought should be how much money we are willing to lose, because most of the time, people or the majority of people who go to a casino can only imagine the amount of money that they have and the amount is multiplied, and this is a mistake that most of us make at first, when I entered I thought that I would always have good luck by my side all the time, and I may have, but at some point that luck runs out and the Things don't go as planned.

So, in order not to give ourselves those blows, we must be more realistic, see that a casino will always have the house advantage and that we are more likely to lose, although it is not that we are negative, no, not at all, but in part we have to Stop being carried away by feelings or emotions, in this case reason is worth much more, reason is what protects us at all times from falling into addiction.

The reality of us, in the economic aspect, we have to read it all the time in the casino, so that we can play better, we cannot let ourselves be carried away by emcones and spend all the money, just because we get excited, because that will bring the person very different consequences. They are easy to overcome, that is why it is always recommended before entering a casino, to put the money ready to spend it and not see the casino as if it were a bank that we are going to make withdrawals from.

That is right. In the context of the topic we are discussing, what is considered is the money that is used to gamble.
Then we can say that it is not a success to have gambling as your major source of income, no matter how professional the gambler is.
I have seen people who has found how to win regularly, even if they lose but their overall wins are greater than  losses.
If at that the person should find other ways to earn. Maybe something more legitimate that you can tell people is your occupation.
No one will happily announce that gambling is their occupation.

But becoming a professional gambler is something a goal or target on which it cant really be that possibly attained or achieved by someone so easily and this is why lots of people would really be thriving on reaching

out this state.Yes, its possible but its almost impossible on being that sustainable with gambling or making it as a living. This is why it would really be that ideal that you should really be realistic when it comes to this approach or else you would really be finding yourself to be that impulsive and would really be desperate on trying out to be profitable with gambling which its never been that good to have that kind of behavior.
Success or Fail? I would say that 98% would fail and 2% would succeed on this kind of venture or this kind of target or goal when it comes to this.

Gambling is for fun specially into those games which are really that luck based but for those sports betting and card games which you could really be able to apply some
strategy then this is where skills and experience matter.

It's only applicable for the influencer, but ordinary people will never ever be able to make gambling as the main source of income. Those streamers are also getting their money through their affiliate commission.
The ordinary people will be able to make money from their affiliation but it will not be as big as influecer which was doing streaming regularly. I remind you that if streamer was not using their own money to gamble with. It's kinda different with ordinary guy who used his own pocket to play gambling. It's quite impossible to use gambling as major income if we don't have influence.

[Onyeeze]

It's someone who is low class in sense can be taken gambling as low sense, so what I want you to know is that the only people who can take gambling as a job are jobless people, anyone who with its sense can be addicted for gambling but it will take it as employment opportunities,  gambling takes more of what it brings, so some of us that gambles do that for their leisure and it apparently be rich people that gambles without hope of benefits but to satisfy their self the urge of plays by betting, but some of us takes gambling as inheritance and that is what is contributing the numbers of gambling addict to tye society

and the fact is, most of them are using money from the site itself. so they don't worry if they lose or not. also, how can we be so sure that what we are seeing is the reality of their game. i guess, most of them are just showing the winnings not their losses.

I'm very sorry to hear that. I have heard that many traders have killed themselves because of the loans they have taken during the 2018's market crash, and that only happens when most of those traders invest money into useless altcoins that could run away with their money anytime. I think it depends on the situation for some people trading isn't hard while for others gambling isn't hard, but there are people who find gambling more interesting than trading because gambling doesn't require any kind of research before trying ones luck but trading does require a lot of research for a good position. 

The trading is a field not suitable for those who want to earn millions within a few days, and those people who gets greedy because of the pumps of some coins often dream to earn a lot of money with the help of trading. However, they forget about the consequences of wrong trades and thus end up loosing everything they own. In the world of online gambling things work a lot differently than the crypto trading because in gambling result is announced within seconds to minutes while in trading sometimes people have to wait for a lot longer periods to know that if their trades are favorable or they have lost the money they put on those trades.

He was trading in the real market, but i don`t think that it is important difference. He knew much more than i but got such results. I don`t want even to try.
The same time i have to mark that it depends  on the character of the gambler/trader. I don`t have any problems with gambling - it is a way to spend some time for fun for the small price. But for someone other - it becomes a problem to stop.

~snip~

The main goal of the gambling is getting positive emotions as for me. If we trying to win the prize, or even to make the gambling a major income - we lose positive emotions and can get problems with the gambling.

The important thing is that we can have fun in gambling and not make gambling a place to make money so we won't be trapped by a situation that will tempt us to continue playing. The temptation to gamble is so strong that it can make us unable to stop gambling. And because of that, we must be able to eliminate the feeling of making money from gambling.

It is possible to get profit from the gambling, but we must differ the gambling for fun and the gambling for profit. If we don`t see the difference - it will become a problem sometime.

I think that a pro of gaming / gambling has to go well past that stage of self-controlling. It has to be taken as job which means that sometimes it will be fun and sometimes it will not be fun, but the player has to keep the same strategy no matter what. If there are any issues with self-control, the game is already lost even before the start.

Well yes this is very true, I also think like that and indeed I am also a gambler who likes to do this. Getting a win in gambling and then using it again to gamble there, and about the results it can not be sure but still defeat will always accompany us. To be honest, I also feel it and when we play with money from gambling winnings, we will feel calm like you said because maybe we realize that it is money from gambling winnings so we will not worry too much if we lose there. That's right, most of the average gamblers will only show their winnings to their colleagues. I don't really know what the reason is but certainly maybe they are ashamed of the many defeats they have experienced and they are not as lucky as others.

Having good self-control, of course, must be learned. The more often we learn to control ourselves in all things, will help us have good self-control. And even though it requires quite a long process, it's still worth learning and doing because it will be useful for us in gambling so we can control ourselves properly and not be tempted to keep playing.

Perhaps it's very easy to suggest someone, but that's the fact. And for ourselves, we can only keep trying until we have good self-control. After all, what will benefit us is improving at learning it.

~snip~

It is possible to get profit from the gambling, but we must differ the gambling for fun and the gambling for profit. If we don`t see the difference - it will become a problem sometime.

But it will still be more difficult to get if we desire to profit from gambling. Perhaps we have often tried to get victory from gambling but we haven't succeeded in getting it. And for that, it's better for us just to have fun playing various gambling games. Perhaps that's what we can do instead of getting into serious problems we don't want.

Your mentality is a slippery slope if you consider gambling earnings to be "house money" and care less about losses. This can normalize losses over time and may tempt you to risk more than just your earnings. Every gambler loses; its just the nature of the game. However, just highlighting successes serves as a cover, a means of numbing the hurt of ongoing failures. Gambling isnt about demonstrating good fortune or showing off gains. Its a warning sign if you're embarrassed or hiding losses. Reconsider your decision after taking a step back, and always play responsibly. It should be enjoyable rather than a stressor or a gauge of one's value.

You must always be honest with yourself, as we don't possess an infinite amount of money. Limitations are crucial, which is why the saying 'gamble only what you can afford' exists. If you've been consistently gambling and experiencing consistent losses, then gambling might not be suitable for you, especially not as a potential source of income. However, you can still find enjoyment in it if you learn from your mistakes and maintain responsibility over the long term.

Of course all we do, especially myself, is try to hold back. And I myself have my own measure and when using any winnings I'm always going to apply a limit to the point where I can afford to use the money. I wouldn't be where I am today if I didn't have a limit to always not exceed.
Making gambling a source of income is not wise at all because it is like holding a time bomb that will explode at any time. So don't even think about making gambling as an income, unless you're a site owner or bookie.
