Can somebody make a successful career in gambling

[adultcrypto]

As the gambling industry is evolving, I think innovations would have kicked in that can make someone create a career from gambling. I do not know how this can be achieved but I feel it is possible.

Making gambling a full time job might be seen as risky but I still feel one can make gambling full time job and a career.

What do you all think?

Gambling is not a job and should never be treated as such.

As long as there is still a chance of you losing and not being in control of your predictions it will never be suitable for a career and unlike trading where you can improve your knowledge and skills and eventually helps you perform more trades efficiently gambling is not like that since 90% of it is based on luck.

And rather than waste your time looking for means to make gambling a means to earn passively (which would make some results into using some unethical means to achieve it) I’d advise you look for a skills that can later be monetized that’s far more better than betting on luck.

In my personal opinion, maybe it is true, but are you ready for the big risks of gambling and not to mention the bad effects of gambling that can happen to yourself or even your family and close relatives? There is little chance in my opinion that I can make a career out of gambling, I suggest not to be careless in matters like this. Unless you have money that can't run out.

It's not possible, in fact I think this is very risky if you make gambling your main livelihood or full time job, will you always win at gambling? Of course not, people who win or win jackpots only occasionally don't always win, and in my opinion the winnings they get are not equivalent to the money that has been lost due to gambling, expenses and income in gambling will not be equal in my opinion, the greater the expenses we will feel it. If you gamble and always lose but you keep gambling, it means you are a rich person who is willing to waste your money. Even though there are people who gamble with unhealthy physical conditions, for example in a casino I have seen a gambling player who is disabled and uses a wheelchair to help him walk but he still gambles, maybe he has a lot of wealth and spends his money on gambling.

Indeed, it's possible, but the odds of achieving success are relatively low.

There are individuals who might argue that pursuing gambling as a viable career is impossible. However, it's important to recognize that there are professional poker players and sports bettors who have demonstrated otherwise.

I think it's pretty obvious that there's no way that you can make a career out of gambling, maybe except you become a pro poker player. But even then you need to have some kind of money to join tournaments and sharpen your skills to become one of the best poker player in the world. So it is still very difficult and the risk is still there that you won't make in the next couple of years.

So how can you bring food in the table for your family then? So I guess for the majority of gamblers that are dreaming to make it their job, I guess they have to think twice about it because of so many factors that you need to consider.

Continuous gambling? Heck no! There’s no such career that will exist that you can lose everything with just one emotional meltdown that will makes you bet recklessly.

I believe if there will be a gambling career then it’s more on the casino side such as dealer, support and other jobs that related on casino operations. Direct playing gambling will never be a career except on some gambling games that is skill based such as poker. But with regular gambling games, creating a career is very hard to do because it’s an everyday gamble and no one can ever be successful with that.

While there are professional gamblers out there, I don't think they'd consider gambling as a full-time job. It's a career, but it's rather similar to how professional eSports players work. They don't necessarily rely only on the game itself, rather they use other methods to earn money, in most cases streaming. Now it's understandable for eSports players to do that, gamblers though? I don't think they'd have that much audience for gambling. I don't think even sponsorships could cut it. So yea, while it can be a career, I don't think it's something you do in a daily basis or rely on it full-time for your money. You can compete professionally, but that's about it I think.

What! 

You will stay single if you are still single and will be a lonely person, that's the first part of the emotional challenge, secondly, you will be mentally down at some points because I don't understand how you will handle all you have all in gambling, it is not even advisable to use 50/50 chances as a source of income. How many successful gamblers have you seen come publicly to say they are into gambling full time and they make a living full time, or perhaps you haven't been there yet otherwise I don't think we will be having this conversation about gambling as a career, only a lazy man will have that thought in the first place.

Have you considered where you will be sourcing funds from? What ae you going to do the day you have nothing to use to wager or stake, will you go and look for a side hustle or will take a loan to finance your gambling, too many impossibility in gambling career and opportunities, it's better you remove that while its still fresh and look for good thing to do with life. Don't forget that gambling is meant for entertainment and not a place to escape poverty.

There are career gamblers alright, but they don't make their income from gambling.
They either have a successful business or a lot of inheritance behind them and gamble with what's peanuts to them, or they simply are sponsored or earn from promoting the casinos/sportsbooks they play at...

Much of gambling streaming is in fact done with funded accounts where the person playing doesn't in fact keep the earnings but is rather paid a stable salary. So while career gambling exists, we ought to recognize that it's just a fallacy. The money comes from other sources. You can't just keep winning reliably in gambling as the odds are always stacked against you. Otherwise games wouldn't be sustained.

Although some people have a place in this niche, it doesn't mean that each and every one of us can achieve the same outcome despite exerting the same amount of effort, as discussed in the thread above. Regardless, gamble responsibly.

LOl, sorry to say this but I personally think that you are delusional, and the earlier you snap out of it, the better.
Yes, you are indeed right about the gambling industry evolving due to growth and advancement in technology globally, but I personally think we have not reached that stage where any body can make a successful career in gambling.

To be actually honest with you, I personally do not think that we can ever arrive at the time when a person can make a successful career out of gambling, simply because, most games in gambling has almost everything to do with how lucky a person is, career like we know it is mostly all about skill, something one is good at skillfully, not based on luck or anything like that.

So based on my input above, I would say that, nobody can ever make a successful career from gambling outside of luck, without luck, it is ultimately impossible.
This is my personal opinion.

There's a thread that's asking for other bookies which offers higher limit so maybe he can be considered as one. The super successful gamblers are probably either banned on all major casinos and sportsbooks or have been restricted on some level. Maybe some of them have become gambling consultants. You can search some articles on list of top gamblers.

How are they called "career gamblers" when they don't get their main income from gambling?

[xSkylarx]

I won't call it a career or make it a source of income because it is not stable. But I've seen a couple of documentaries about those professional gamblers who make a living on it and are winning big but even them don't recommend it because they just got lucky and have money that they have won big and even they disclose that they venture into business because gambling is not stable, sometimes you win and always you lose so they don't take that risk that is why they put up a business to have that stable income.

People we are seing making a gambling platform who are the developers are doing so for making business, they are spending so as to earn, if you're working under them also is another means to earn from gambling for a living, but an average gambler who only bet in gambling platforms may not make gambling as a successful source of income because he will often loose more than he can win, moreso, gambling is not a business or an enterprise, we should go for doing business or other things that can fetch in money for us if we really want money in gambling sector but not by playing bets, most of those we may be comparing ourselves to already have their money and don't care winning or loosing each time they gamble.

Unless you have an unlimited budget which you can try different things and can keep track every day of your profit/loss ratio in a spreadsheet that you update everyday then no.I have worked in the early 2000-s in a casino and the people who claimed to have been doing a living out of sport betting back then,one was deep down in debt and the other got divorced,with this I want to say that I know real examples from my life that gambling can never be trusted as a reliable source of income or to make a career out of it.

It is a big red flag to have a relationship with anyone who takes gambling which is something meant for fun as a full-time career. A relationship with a person like that will rob you of your peace, and mental balance because they will most of the time be frustrated and will come to you for recovery. These people may also put you in a financial mess from constantly demanding money from you for different reasons, but their main plan will be to be able to fund their gambling when they run out of personal finance from losing. Out of the many careers, choosing to make gambling your choice is very irresponsible.

[Text]

There are indeed professional gamblers who have managed to make a living from their betting activities. These individuals often specialize in specific areas such as poker, sports betting, or horse racing, and dedicate significant time and effort to studying their chosen field. They treat gambling as their full-time job, putting in the necessary hours of research and analysis to make informed decisions.

So yeah, it's possible but not easy and there are risks involved.

OP said "Can somebody make a successful career in gambling" -> the answer is depend.

Gambling = playing games + risking money. So yes you can be successful playing games, but with extra work, such as becoming a streamer, content creator, reviewer, etc. You know pro esports players can't live with tournament money, but they get a lot of product endorsements and stream their stuff.

If you think that gambling-only activity will earn you money, it's the biggest mistake in your life. The game is tailored for the house so they'll always win in the long run. By the way, you can also work at the casino and become successful just like any other career.

Full time job - ❌
Main source of income - ❌
Career? - Yes and No
Entertainment - ✅
Leisure- ✅

Somewhat it is really that something that true that there's no way that gamblers could really be easily be able to attain such state that they do really that making gambling as their living.
It might that sound impossible but there were actually people who do make out such thing specially to those people who are really that involving with poker or card games
and with some sports betting which we do really know that it isnt something simple and it does really require specific skill and specialty.
For those who do have plans on doing so then i wont really be recommending on rushing things up something like this because it would really be making you desperate.

Yes, and we should really be able to distinguish what is meant by a gambling career, they gamble but not too seriously and do not pursue the winnings that are there, because obviously it's just their job that is driven by some sponsors who will pay them. So they don't focus on getting money from their gambling but from the sponsors who pay them, as we know now there are quite a lot of stremers who broadcast gambling and carry some well-known sites, nothing but they are like marketing agents hired by the site to be sponsored. And that means that the gambling they show in their streming is only a medium for them to get money from promoting.

It is true that the funds they play are not officially from their personal money but it has been provided by the casino that has given them a job to promote the site. Therefore, sometimes we like to see the budget they carry when playing live is very large, and we think they are like rich people with a very large budget, even though it is nothing but a promotional account that they play, which means that the balance there is not entirely correct.
