Will you gamble till old age or not

[deathcode]

My question is this, will you continue to gamble till old age, or you have planned to stop gambling at a certain age?

I've actually never planned to stop gambling, because basically I gamble to have fun with my friends and now we rarely gamble, you can count them on your fingers in one month. Currently I only engage in gambling activities when I gather with my friends to play cards with small bets and currently I almost rarely gamble at casinos.
Because for some reason the money that I usually set aside for gambling and having fun is always used for other needs. I don't know, maybe as time goes by, maybe I will stop myself because many of my friends have stopped gambling.
Everyone must have different reasons for stopping gambling, but maybe I won't stop forever because maybe once in a while I will definitely get back together with my friends and gamble with them. I don't aim for a certain age or time to stop gambling.

As they get older, many people don't know what the future will hold, whether there will be wealth or poverty. Of course, these two options are the basis for an adult to prioritize gambling or daily needs, but if our income is greater, it is likely that the pleasure of gambling will continue gambling, not because it is an addict. When playing gambling, the main thing is looking for fun and entertainment. and if the future income is mediocre, prioritizing daily needs to survive

Gamble always, keeps you young imo.  If you arent playing something your brain will idle and fall off your head quite possibly.    People always confuse the game with throwing high stake money at the game to win, Im not suggesting you gamble food money but play for sure.   A ton of people play some kind of social gambling just for company and something to win or lose, never gamble outside of your leisure budget for that week and do actually always keep a budget so its fun not a pain when you lose money you needed.   Age doesnt limit fun imo.
   Ive seen retired people gamble not just for themselves but host others, stream games even anything at all is your choice when you got more free time in old age.   Its a luxury people should take advantage of

[Slow death]

when it is said: "playing for fun" we are assuming that this person has many other things they do for fun in life and that gaming is one of those things, in other words, this person has a job that takes up most of their time of the day, when he comes back from work he watches TV, then talks to his family and then sleeps, when the weekend arrives, he goes out to the beach with his family and friends, then he goes out shopping, then he spends some time talking to friends, other people drink beer somewhere. There are other people who play football on the weekends for fun, other people go to watch movies at the cinema, and after doing a lot of fun-related things they take some time to play at an online casino

see that there are many things related to fun that I said that gambling are just one of those things, but they should not be the main thing for fun on people's list, by that I mean that in the same way that it is always recommended that people diversify their investments, the same thing happens with gambling where people must diversify their entertainment. You shouldn't spend all day playing and playing every day, because when a person plays every day then that is no longer playing for fun, that is called playing to obtain profits

so it doesn't make sense for someone who only plays on the weekends and for a few hours and has more than 3 or 7 things to enjoy as well to talk about being old enough to retire from gaming, that would be the same as that person saying that they too You will retire from all the other things you enjoy. Only those who play every day and intend to make a profit will think about retiring from gaming when they reach a certain age. I will repeat myself again: people who play every day are not playing for fun, they are playing for profits, people who play for fun, play for a short time and only for a few days and then have more days without playing

[ralle14]

I haven't thought that far, but I guess when I reach a certain age, I can see myself dropping it since my priorities won't stay the same, and there are different sources of entertainment that I can use to replace gambling. I sometimes use these other sources to keep myself away whenever i'm having a bad day at gambling. Then again, I could be wrong because i'm mostly gambling for the fun of it and it could last for a long time if this level of fun remains the same until I get old.

If I still have the financial capacity to do so, then I probably would but if not, I’d be fine making imaginary bets in sportsbetting while watching the game itself. For sure every gambler would want to continue gambling as much as they can but it would be better to mind as well the circumstances of doing so. Gambling isn’t choosing any age except for minors. Once we get old, we’d be more likely bored of things and gambling could be a good leisure by that time especially if you will still have the financial freedom at that age. Actually, active gamblers are older ones but big bettors are with mid to young adult age according to an article I have scanned before ( forgot it, sorry).If it would be gambling to enjoy and kill time, then that’s fine but if you are still gambling with ideas of earning huge then it’s not. There are old people here who are using their monthly pension to gamble which will add to the risk present in the activity.

My question is this, will you continue to gamble till old age, or you have planned to stop gambling at a certain age?
I am not referring to addicted gamblers that will learn a hard lesson before the quit, but only responsible gamblers that are taking all prevention

I answer to this question is I don't know.
If I put an age limit to my gambling it means that I am considering myself as a gambling addict. Maybe someday, gambling may no longer give me the thrills as it right now and I may find some other thing else that could replace it - fishing, hunting, or archery. For now, we continue to enjoy our responsible gambling knowing that someday we may or may not continue with it. So we live in the moment and make the best out of it.

I never think about this. I assume I can gamble as long as I have safe money for gambling. I will stop when I've no more money allocated for gambling. Since gambling is mostly just for fun, we can gamble at any age. We probably just adjust the time to spend for gambling. When we have more activities in real life, we may stop gambling temporarily or just gamble in a short time.

Actually, I don't plan to gamble at all, if I feel I want to then I will whether it's 30 or 60 as far as I can afford to gamble. I have no idea how my old age will be, and thinking about gambling at that time wasn't even in my teeny-tiny thoughts.

Do you never gamble?
I'm surprised to know this. But it is the individual's right to gamble or not.
If you think you still don't need to try gambling at your current age, you are free to ignore any gambling offers.

I was in the garden this evening and I was think on my bet that I placed on this evening game, then something came into my head like...are you going to gamble even when you are old, or you will quit gambling at a certain age.

Don’t you think old age is when you are even suppose to enjoy gambling? When you free, you have  nothing to do again and you are always bored at home, you can just gamble, relax, and have fun. I am not saying you should gamble to make money the same way lots of people are doing now, if you are gambling because of money, then you are wrong, because the tension that you will be giving yourself will be affecting your health conditions, and as you are old, you should give yourself unnecessary tension, just gamble for relaxation alone.

I will love to quit gambling when I am 42yrs because I don't want to give gambling much time and I will prefer to look for an alternative means to have fun.

Definitely, I will also have alternative means of having fun, but sometimes I will get tired of other alternatives, and I will just relax and enjoy my gambling. It’s a choice. I am sure you have your own personal reason why you will prefer to stop gambling at the age of 45, but I think I will enjoy gambling. I don’t think I have a specific period during which I will stop.

[Yogee]

I may excuse myself from time to time due to busyness but I don't really see myself from completely quitting some forms of gambling. You tend to physically interact more with people as you get older and that can be through socializing that may include drinking or gambling. It doesn't have to be in clubs or casinos but in simple social gatherings.

[AliMan]

My advice to everyone, particular with old people who were not financially able to sustain with this kind of entertainment and luck seeking activity. They shouldn't waste their time and effort, because it has nothing to do good unless they're fortunate to have a good life with retirement benefits. Much better live a simple life and quit gambling addiction, reaching at older age and yet you still gamble for lucking winning from gambling; I guess that's worst enough to say you've been an addict for several years.

[Fundamentals Of]

I have seen many old men and women who are spending much of their time playing gambling games. They don't have much to do. They also don't have many responsibilities anymore. And since their bodies are not anymore the strong ones like when they were young, they just spend time doing easy things for fun. Gambling is one that I observe. Of course aside from reading, tending to their plants, doing crochet, etc.

I cannot speak what particular age I would stop gambling. I don't even know if I'm going to stop at all. Perhaps I will continue until I'm old. But it's going to be moderate, as I always do.

[michellee]

Stopping gambling is a choice for everyone, especially for those who currently still gamble frequently. But at what age they will stop is also a choice for them. But we should stop as soon as possible and not drag on in gambling games because it endangers us.

The more often we gamble and cannot limit gambling, the more we will have the opportunity to experience gambling addiction. And if we are addicted to gambling, it can keep us from gambling, maybe even for life. If you have chosen when to stop gambling, you must prepare it and try to reduce gambling activities so that it is not difficult for you to leave it when that time almost comes.

I don't know when I will stop gambling but when I no longer feel pleasure from gambling, I will stop but I have started to reduce my gambling activities. That's so I can leave gambling when the time comes. And there will be no doubt when I leave it.

Might be vice versa for me. When kids grow old, they will leave you. Since you will be alone with your wife then, there's really nothing much to do and I love sports too much especially basketball so the addition of putting a bet for my preferred team to win will add more flavor to watching the game. I don't think I will stop gambling even in old age. I might stop playing casino games on gambling sites because we are just always losers on that type of game but not in sports betting.
I want to keep myself updated with the NBA and adding spice to that is gambling so that I will still have the urge to look at the roster updates, trades, injuries, and everything that will happen until my last breath. I am a big fan of the game so stopping is not on my dictionary, I'd like to keep it that way and so do gambling with it.

There are some people who have a lot of income and it will be right if they gamble. There are some people who have very little income and gambling will not be right. Gambling requires a lot of money and time. But not everyone has it. Those who gamble  After getting addicted, they never have peace in their lives. Because they sell all their possessions to raise money for gambling. I sometimes gamble to spend my free time. But when I see myself getting more addicted to gambling, I try to stay away from gambling.

[salad daging]

Maybe when I'm old I intend to stop gambling, but until now I haven't thought about what age that is because for me gambling is for fun, does not cause problems and is responsible, I have never relied on gambling to earn.

If it's just a habit that doesn't cause problems in your economy why stop if it's still safe?

I want to take care of how this habit does not get worse which results in addiction, so it is necessary to pay attention to every game with gambling there are times when playing with extra money and not imposing just for fun but burdening your finances.

[Don Pedro Dinero]

LMAO. I'm getting older and older, and I'm still gambling, but I've never been very heavy at it and even less so now. I haven't gambled for a couple of months. I know what it is, you can entertain yourself and make some extra money but you have a negative net loss in the long run. You can't fight against that. If you think about the fact that poor neighbourhoods are where most lotteries are sold and where most bookmakers are, you'll realise that it's not a good way to spend your money, and that's something that rich people know. That said, buying the lottery once in a while or going to the casino once in a while is not bad, but be aware of the underlying reality.

Gambling definitely leads to addiction; being addicted in one's late 40s is when one realizes the difficult challenges he will face because he will be keen on selling valuable properties to pay off pending debts while also using some part to gamble; at that age, quitting gambling will be extremely difficult. This is the moment To generate lifetime decisions; betting until old age is silly; I can't conceive how my children will look at me; they engage in what their parents do. Gambling will be one of the most ignorant blunders made if one continues to participate in gambling activities; instead, I settled for a prosperous business. You can decide to stop gambling whenever it is convenient for you.

[Hatchy]

There's nothing inherently wrong with gambling in old age. The only problem that arises is when someone becomes addicted and can't control their gambling habits. Gambling is meant to be a form of entertainment.
So as a grumpy old nigga, it's okay to enjoy it occasionally to keep your minds and body active. As a gambler, It's essential to know when to stop. If someone decides to quit gambling, it's a courageous step, and age shouldn't be a barrier to making that choice.

There are so many of us that are responsible gamblers and we only gamble to entertain ourselves not for making profit. Since gambling is done for fun, it becomes part of us, this is because we enjoy the fun, and some persons uses it to relieve them after a long day stress at work. We always assign some portion of our income for our gambling activities because it has become a habit in us. I know that some of us hasn't thought of quitting gambling because we are responsible gamblers.

They say that any vice can only go away when our spirit goes away in other words the vice will stay with us until our death.This does not mean that there is no possibility to keep it under control,as you say looking for alternate ways to have fun is the first step to keep your habit/vice in control in this case.You though cannot just put an age to it,I will stop playing at 42,that is not very easy to do if you keep betting for example every evening,you will feel empty when you don't do so anymore unless you have found something else to keep you entertained during the evening.
