Gambling everywhere

[Aikidoka]

So if you use our saved money to stake a bet, what really comes next to your mind? I will like us to talk about this.

Gambling is something I enjoy doing from time to time and I don't mind spending a bit on it to have fun with friends. It's similar to going outside and spending money at a restaurant, buying food, or anything else. Even though I know some people may use their money for other forms of entertainment but for certain people gambling serves as a huge source of entertainment and they're willing to spend a considerable amount of money on it just to have fun and maybe earn some money.

However, I'm not referring to people who believe they can get rich through gambling or those who are addicted to it as I find that not good and not something I personally support to be honest.

[Razmirraz]

Checking past bets is the most ridiculous thing gamblers do, there is no need to remember or double check money that has been spent while betting. Just let the money that has been spent buy entertainment for yourself, even though you often lose when gambling, at least there is satisfaction to be gained.

Using cold money to gamble is clearly the wrong decision, cold money in my opinion is like a deposit for the future. You need to find extra income to allocate some money for gambling, financial management needs to be managed properly so you don't spend money that should be used for other needs.

Gambling gambling gambling everywhere there are gamblers everywere either online or shops and some gamblers are not happy to be one because they are addicted to it, now come to the present day question, how do you feel after making a stake? People on these forum mostly gambling board, lot of people here do say we should use spare money to make a bet (stake) but we all know that there is nothing like a spare money if people save money for future use I don't think a well thinking person will also save money for gambling, I think everybody who gambled sometimes does not know when they are in a gambling shops, just imagine you're about to check your past bets and you find your self about to stake another, please don't see it the other way round.

What it seems you do not understand is that spare money is any money left after you pay for all the services, products, taxes, savings and even a luxury or two you may want to buy for yourself, since not everything is living your life as if you are playing a monopoly game, so once I have done all of that whatever money is left that is my spare money that I can use as I see fit, and as such if I lose it my financial situation is not affected at all by those losses.

It's good to know that some people are not happy about their gambling addiction, because their are others who are not even aware of their addiction to it and have seen it as a part of their normal lifestyle, well acknowledging an addiction is a thing and working towards it is another thing, but the best way to handle addiction instead of being emotional about it is seeking help from therapist or other alternatives that would help them  minimise their interest for gambling, also people react differently based on the outcome of their stake and not before the outcome,because i see no reason to be joyful or sad when I've not known the outcome of my predictions.
 When saving people also make plans for other activities apart from feeding, rent and other bills it could be for entertainment and gambling can be a form of entertainment, however it is very wise to gamble with a spare cash and In gambling it is considered as the money  whether little or huge amount you'll be willing to lose without feeling very remorseful, I belive that's why some people feel gambling is meant for the rich or middle class because poor people have no money they'll be willing to lose, but that statement is considered partially right by me because since gambling involves risk taking, there are some poor peole that would be willing to risk the little they have to stake on games knowing they stance a 50/50 chances of winning.

Who say's we're saving money for gambling? Lol that's not the point of "gambling only what you can afford to lose" you literally only gamble with what's in excess out of your pocket and not dedicated a bankroll on it or something cause that in itself is grounds for becoming addicted to gambling. I don't know about the other peeps in this forum but I never go so far as to dedicate money from my budget to fulfill my gambling habits cause that's just stupid and excessive.

For the most part I don't feel anything about it, no regret or remorse cause at the end of the day, it's money that I willingly spent and something that didn't come out of my savings or whatnot.

If I want to save my money to just gamble it, of course, my mind is set to just gamble it, nothing else. But to be honest, that's not what I'm thinking or doing, I may save money for future use but I won't just save it for the sake of just gambling that's too unwise. Maybe save a little portion of it and the other is to invest that may give you returns.

Every person tries to always have extra money in his wallet. Such money is called free money and can be spent as a sudden unexpected expenses or for entertainment. By and large, many people do not care what the money is spent on, if with their help you can get the desired emotions. And everyone's entertainment is different - someone likes to drink beer in the evening, someone likes to spend the night with a prostitute, and someone can not go to bed until he throws dice.

Perhaps you are projecting, or at the very least you need to install a decent adblocker on your browser if you're constantly seeing gambling content. The algorithms that companies like Google use are super sophisticated and if they see that you're doing a lot of searching for gambling type sites then you will get lots of adverts that are subtly connected. However I don't see gambling ads, or at least don't acknowledge them enough, when looking around but perhaps I'm not watching the sort of content that has gambling sites in it. I do recall that lots of football clubs, and now even formula 1, is starting to have an influx of such adverts but if the clubs are willing to pay tens of millions to players then it has to come from somewhere.

You've got that right. Spare money gives you  lot of leverage to gamble without having to struggle with your thoughts.

but we all know that there is nothing like a spare money if people save money for future use I don't think a well thinking person will also save money for gambling, I think everybody who gambled sometimes does not know when they are in a gambling shops, just imagine you're about to check your past bets and you find your self about to stake another, please don't see it the other way round.

Of course there is and on the contrary,
Spare money gambling is what a concerned or thinking mind would do. To be able to separate vital aspects of his or her finance from that which is gor leisure.

So if you use our saved money to stake a bet, what really comes next to your mind? I will like us to talk about this.

I think te problem here is largely misinterpretation of concept.
Your mixing things up and that's the cause of your confusion.

There exists a huge difference between your savings and spare money.
Savings: this could be a money set aside for emrgencies and future investments.
Spare money: this could be money set aside for undefined expenses or expenditure.

One has to do with life saving and threaten situations while the other just comes to play when your met with intricacies that wasn't predetermined.

[bitbollo]

If you bet monthly 0,5% or 0,25% of your total earning... Is this amount that you cannot afford to lose or not?
Of course assuming that you will lost everything...
What about time spent and halving fun? And what about the potential win related to bet? Isnt worth ? Well Just stop betting of your answer Is no

This does not make sense...  gambling addicts are supposed to be pumped when they are gambling or accessing gambling platform.  Since they are gambling addicts, all they have in mind is the urge to gamble.

now come to the present day question, how do you feel after making a stake?

I feel fine, since I am only using the fund that I am afford to lose.

People on these forum mostly gambling board, lot of people here do say we should use spare money to make a bet (stake) but we all know that there is nothing like a spare money if people save money for future use I don't think a well thinking person will also save money for gambling,

Non-addicted gamblers see gambling as a source of entertainment, so just like saving money for an outing or watching movies, these people are also saving money for their gambling activity.  The reason is that people allocate a budget for gambling so that they have separate allocations for their activities.

I think everybody who gambled sometimes does not know when they are in a gambling shops, just imagine you're about to check your past bets and you find your self about to stake another, please don't see it the other way round.

Nothing comes to my mind since I never regret my actions using my funds that is free during that time for gambling.  Only people who can't afford to lose their funds are regrettable and if they are that person, they should stay away from gambling.

I have come across a similar question on this board and you guys are sharing the same wrong orientation about the phrase "use the money you can afford to lose" or "use spare money". What these two phrase means is very simple, don't use the money you can make you feel bad or decision of been use for gambling, as a gambler every player has a spending limit and broke limit, we have money that we can let go of without feeling anything but it is subjective, I can spare $10 to gamble but your capacity may be bigger than my own and may spare upto $50 just to gamble.

I think when we save money, they are meant for important stuff right except may be for miscellenous stuff, sing your saved money to gamble kills switched the fun of gambling, no way a gambler will say that he is having a fun with money that is so important, there is going to be a discomfort, you will get anxiety throught the event and if the game doesn't goes out as plan, you will hate gambling for the rest of your life.

[Frankolala]

Using spare money literally doesn't mean you need to save for gambling purpose, it's all about using an amount within your possession that wouldn't affect your pocket or you as a gambler won't feel it if you gamble and lose.

Have you forgotten that what ever amount of money either big or small amount that's goes out of your pocket without bringing more or add something to you is call waistage money?

I disagree with you on this OP,do you mean that when you pay money to watch a movie in the cinema to entertain yourself is a waste ? Because the money is gone and wouldn't yield any income. There are some fun that we need to pay for so that we can have it,this is how gambling is. It is when you put it in your mind that you want to make profit from gambling that is when we can say all your loss is a waste of money,because you use money made for some important issues to gamble.

The only money we can use to bet is a free money and not hard earned.

I don't understand this statement. There is no free money anywhere. What made it free,as an adult you don't except anyone to give you money before you can gamble. What about gamblers that set aside 5% of their weekly or monthly income for gambling. Don't get it twisted every gambler gambles with his hard earned money that is why you must have self-control in your gambling activities.

On the time that you are already saving up money for the sake of gambling then consider yourself to be an addicted person because no on on their right minds on doing such act on making that savings just for them to play.

There's no doubt that everyone could really be able to play considering  that we do have that kind of accessibility which is something that would really be normal. It is really just depending on a certain person on how
he/she would really be dealing up with things on the time that he would really be able to encounter. If you are really that on your right perception or approach on things then you would really be doing gambling
basing up on the time that you are getting bored or have nothing to do and just making use of that spare money of yours and doesnt really tend on going into a point on which making up savings for the benefit of
something like this.

In the case that you would really be having this kind of behavior then it would really be turning out that you would really be having gradual addiction which might cause up more serious problem later on.

In the digital age, gambling has become a trend as commonplace entertainment. we can see, there are many online casino sites, both legal and illegal. in fact we have lots of crypto casinos, both in the community and outside the community. You can play anywhere, the most important thing is that you play at a trusted casino that has a credible license and reputation. but most importantly, you are very aware that gambling involves risks. the most common risk, the money you bet is lost because of losing. the worst, you become an addict if you do not have self-control and responsibility. yep, it's that simple.

If, you calculate the losses you have suffered so far. ideally just stay away from gambling, because you will suffer just thinking about it. to be honest, i am well aware that i have spent a lot of money in the past with gambling. but I have changed the concept of thinking now, think of gambling as just part of a hobby that gives you entertainment on the sidelines after work activities. you can think of it as a medium for relaxation, by spending just a few dollars and according to your means. thus, you will not be pressured by an idea that you questioned in this thread.

I barely find your writeup easy to comprehend. I can see how you were moving from different thoughts running through your head to make sure you gather all your thoughts about gambling. Are you asking if the money we saved and finally use part of it to gamble, what do we expect? I believe no one will gamble with there hard earned money and nit expect goo ld results from the game the bet on. We are always Optimistic about our bets hoping for us to win them so need smile can come to our face again. We are always happy whenever we win on the games we bets on because that's what keeps  us going as a gambler.

[piebeyb]

I never said to use spare money but only said that just use unused money, aka money that you get from another job, for example a kind of bonus if you work or something other than basic salary, for example I am a worker usually get bonuses because I am diligent so usually I use the bonus money to gamble not on the main salary for the necessities of life with my small family.

I'm also not a gambler who likes to check my online gambling history, how much has been spent before, besides, it's not important, I also don't expect the money that has been lost to come back because I gamble just for fun and not a gambler who is concerned with money, especially looking for victory, I happen to be just a small gambler so the main thing is to limit the gambling budget is very important. don't have to gamble every time just on weekends just use my cell phone.

You should see where I live.  I live in the United States, more specifically Illinois. The State government here decided to legalize certain aspects of gambling about 3 years ago.  Sports gambling is one thing they legalized (with KYC rules and what not) but the main thing they legalized were gambling "parlors" where just about every strip mall ,gas station and hotel in the state (some cities decided against it, as they have the legal right) has a slot machine "parlor".  You hear about it all over the radio as well.  It's crazy how quickly thing changed, as just a few year ago gambling here as a big "no no".

If you are an addict to this act you won't really feel anything and won't even accept the fact that you are going beyond the sanity of you actually gambling, an addicted person finds it really difficult to know that their addiction is really causing them problem. I had a friend who at every time feels like he should just be busy with gambling online and he also said these words to me variously as he stated that "GAMBLING MAKES ME FEEL RELAXED and I don't know how true this is but I just feel he is fucking addicted but don't know it yet because he always has series of excuses for very stake he made and feels the next one he will correct it and same circle keep continuing without him.

Don't make your gambling experience too technical and complicated.

Regardless if that money used in gambling came from so-called "spare money" and as you mentioned there's no such thing as spare money (I partially agree with you on that) it all depends on how responsible you are during your gambling session.

Spared money, saved money, money that you can afford to lose, etc., or whatever terms you want to name it, that is all useless if you are not responsible for managing it. In the world of gambling, managing properly the bankroll is the key to taking our gambling session in the long run without harming directly our own money in our pocket.
