Can somebody make a successful career in gambling

[Nerdy doctor]

Achieving a successful career in gambling requires a combination of skill, knowledge, discipline, and networking. By continuously honing their craft, managing risks effectively, and staying connected within the industry, individuals can increase their chances of long-term success in the world of gambling.

Some people might be skeptic about this but it actually is happening in some parts of the world where gambling is something like a source of income to some individual.

You just cannot make a career out of gambling as gambling itself isn’t an occupation and shouldn’t be mistaken as such. In gambling, you do not always leave with a paycheck after a specified amount of time as there are occasional wins and losses. With gambling, you’re literally not employed and can’t boast of a regular and reliable income. With gambling, you spend money in hopes of getting even more money and when there’s a losing streak, you spend even more money in a bid to recoup some money lost.

People have now mistaken gambling as a source of income. It is not. It doesn’t provide a regular nor reliable payment. In a real job, you’re quite certain of the amount you’ll be paid as well as when you’ll get paid. You can’t say the same with gambling.

Absolutely right.

Strange that these things need to be said, but you are spot on.

When you are gambling you are paying for a service. This service is basically the chance to win money. The most probable factor is that you will lose money, based on the probabilities.

On the other hand, if you are employed, you are providing your skills as a service, and you are getting paid a salary for it.

The casinos sell a service to gamblers.

The workers sell their skill to companies.

They are absolutely not the same thing.

[Salahmu]

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

You are right gambling should not be treated as a real time job because gambling is very risky that the chances of losing everything you have is possible so something that has 50 to 50 chances of wining and losing should never be treated as a real time job.

Irrespective of the winings people may get from gambling  it should not be ticket to make gambling a career because gambling is a game of luck and almost every winings depends on it, so what if perhaps we make a gambling as our career and we were unable to make any winings should we still call it a career?.

So gambling should never be referred as a profession because profession is something that has to do with consistent of financial benefits from it so however gambling is quite different from that because there is every possibility that gambling will consume the little money you have instead of adding to your portfolio, however there is a saying that he who fails to plan, plans to fail, so anybody who plans to make gambling as there career is obvious that they are planning to fail.

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?

Thinking of making playing gambling a full time job is really not a good advice to anyone who may want to venture into such idea as that may lead to an addiction and may equally lead to heavy lost of once money if care is not taking. Get a skills that will help render services and in return you will get paid for your service. Taking playing gambling as a fun will make you enjoy playing gambling, and you may be lucky one day and make huge amount of money from playing gambling but not to take it as a full time job.

I don't see anything like career in gambling because it can be disaster to us if we only look to gambling for our earnings. We need to think about the days when we may not may profits and what will happen to us after that. Gambling can make us desperate if we don't have other sources of money apart form gambling. We are not even supposed to look to gambling as a source of earning. We don't expect to be making profits everytime, this only comes when we are lucky and bet on games we are skilled in. In order not to become too desperate as a gambler, it is advisable for us to have different sources of income.

this is what I like about your opinion, it is quite simple and very precise.

casinos or gambling provide facilities or places for gamblers to have fun enjoying entertainment in their free time or when they want to entertain themselves with a little luxury, risking a little money to provide a sensation of pleasure in gambling and its not all about profit or income but just to have fun and enjoy it. gamblers must really be able to understand how this gambling works.

Just thinking about turning gambling into a full time job is a bit risky.

Those that have taken it as a full time job understands the risk that it bears.

It is in the mind that we have allowed our thoughts to be controlled by wrong views and beliefs. We have immediately put our mind in jeopardy because it is not realistic.

Honestly, it is realistic when someone makes gambling a career and becomes successful on it but the chances for it to happen for an individual is pretty low.

Those that have made a good run on it and still are on it, they see that it's possible for them to make that happen but they need to realize that it's not going to last long.

It is realistic, but we know that it will never be easy to do it and get it because there are many things we have to learn, and only a few people can do it. Those who are not capable and keep trying will only experience bigger losses, and if they still don't realize it, they will experience losses. That's where we have to realize that making gambling a career will not work well, and we should think about looking for other ways that have better opportunities to build a career. They can work in an office with a definite career path, so they only need to focus on their work to get promoted one day.

Yes indeed this is quite realistic and I agree that if you want to have a successful career in gambling it is very difficult, especially if you are just a pure gambler who only expects mercy from the casino for a win, it is almost impossible, and even if it is possible at most only occasionally with dozens of attempts. And also on the other hand I don't believe and don't believe if there are people who are able to succeed in gambling, I don't really understand what is meant by real success in gambling, there is no peak point that they can reach, and the fact that more often than not you will only suffer a lot of losses, nothing more than that.

Gambling is all about luck and for anyone who is serious about chasing something especially winning then I'm sure the end result will be the opposite and I'd say it's worse than you thought. Well agreed, we must really realize that this is just an activity for entertainment only and in no way can be made a place to make money or even a career with the aim of success, it doesn't make sense to me. So I hope you or they can quickly correct the wrong mindset and perspective, think more clearly and also make sense. If you are serious about building a career then allocate your passion to something that is more certain and guaranteed, that's all.

You've found something big. Blackjack, poker? Yes, yes! Games are not just games; they demonstrate ability, strategy, and brilliance. Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey? At the top! They know the game's art. It's about outsmarting, outplaying, and outlasting your opponents

The film 21? Absolutely amazing! They beat the system with their smarts. Amazing, very amazing. Bryan Cranston's film? What an idea! However, gambling is not for everyone. The world is hard. You must be smart, brave, and disciplined. Should you decide to buy, be sensible and savvy, and remember: the house has huge benefits

Dude, I don't know what you're on but your sarcasm isn't hitting it's marks, I feel bad for you or I'm wrong you just talk like that in real life. And now that I've look at it, your post don't have any substance, you just made my post shorter then added your take on why gambling isn't for everyone which I believe has been implied in my previous post.

Edit: the Bryan Cranston film I'm talking about is Jerry and Marge Go Large, you didn't even bother to do your research on that film, you just go with the generic response?

Yes we can have a view that gambling is made only to provide opportunities for people who want to find fun in the casino, they are also brought gambling to the economy ranh that can bring them to be rich or have a wrath in gambling, it is excessive thinking about gambling.
I have felt a big victory and a big loss in gambling and it cannot be predicted that I will win or lose, and if it is won and losing it will impulsive us in gambling.

Making a casino where to have fun is the most correct thought in gambling.

People are making a successful enterprise in gambling business because they understand the required ways to manage such to the level of self sustainability, it's not about having the money to make a career in gambling, you have to have the basic and fundamental knowledge about gambling, this will help on every decision making process they are into and all their actions will lead to a profitable experience.

[noormcs5]

There is no concept of making a career through gambling. This idea is just a flop and the reason for this is that gambling is based on luck and there is no career which can be built with luck. You progress in your career with experience, while the experience of gambling does not matter as every day, every hour and every minute is a new day new hour and a new minute in gambling.

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.

Gambling does not require you to think all day before gambling, so why can't you gamble part time while being on real job or business? Even you can access gambling during job/business and still continue your other work.

Also if you believe that gamblers should gamble all day long, they will only lose more money and become addicted to gambling, if they spend most hours of the day busy in gambling.

The understanding on how risky it is to make a career of it is what people have to see. It is not just all about a gambler being lucky and think of himself to become a pro on it and continue doing what he has started. I agree that having the knowledge and the basic fundamentals have to be there and you need to take that point knowing that you are not always lucky. The basics of it should be carefully assessed by the gambler himself if he can do such things. Because if not and he just does it for fun and soon turned about transitioning into making it as a profitable source of income, it is their description of a success but it doesn't end there because there will be times that you are not profitable.

Perhaps we don't believe in gamblers who are successful in gambling because we have never met people who are truly successful in gambling. I think some people can achieve success in gambling, but these people are not easy to assemble because they don't want to say that they are successful from gambling. They will hide their success from gambling from people, and only a few people know that they have been able to achieve that success. And that is a difficult thing to achieve in gambling, so it is very rare for people to achieve that success.

We won't know how people who are successful in gambling do it because perhaps they won't tell us and don't want us to try to become successful gamblers. Perhaps there are many ways or lessons that we have to learn, but they don't tell us about them. But I think there is a lot to learn to be a successful gambler because it is a long journey. And that is why not many people or gamblers can reach that stage because they cannot go through the processes. We can only learn self-control and other things that we consider necessary so as not to experience things that can harm us or not become addicted to gambling.

Sometimes i will sit to think about it on how people do find it easy or hard in making a business career in real life each time they are i to doing any kind of business, things don't normally works out as expected in most cases, yet you can still discover them struggling with it in other to make ends meet, this same challenge is applicable to gambling as well, some are making it through while others aren't because of the risk and challenges in gambling that many faces in it.

The gambler can enjoy the game on playing and but he can’t be successful by earning money from the gambling sites.The purpose of the gambling sites was not the earning tool.If you had the real business in the real life,So you can use the profit from the business in the gambling site.The gambler should ready to face the game loss at the various time,So the gambling site will help the same gambler to win their game in one day.The experienced gambler also face all this challenges at the beginning of the gambling and build their mindset at the loss time.Survive in the game was important to win the game on one day.

They are absolutely not the same thing.

But these all happens in a gambling industry.  There should not be a gambling industry if career can't be built on top of gambling activities.  The idea of gambling career maybe a huge argument but people have their own POV about it.  When it comes to POV nothing wrong or right, so the idea of a career in gambling is subjective.

Casino owners who give service by integrating gambling games and gambling idea are the first person who can have a succesful career in gambling.

Those staff who were hired by casino owners had built their career on top of gambling activities.

And those gamblers who participate in official gambling tournaments have built their career in gambling by being professional poker players.  Gambling does not only includes taking risk by making a bet in hopes of getting a bigger reward but gambling became way bigger when the gambling industry was established.

Not to forget those gambling game providers...  most of them are successful in venturing gambling industry.

Yeah, you are right.

There are many people that work in the gambling industry, and they are paid for their services.

Gamblers though are not paid for their services, they simply either get the win or they pay with their money.

So, in a way, it is different, because you might be a super skilled gambler that knows everything about a game, and play the best, and still lose your money.

That doesn't happen in any other job, even at sports if your team loses, the players still get paid their salaries for example.

Gambling is a huge industry with expertise. Casino owners? They're the pioneers, the visionaries. Gambling has business potential, not simply recreational promise. Profitable, interesting, and outrageously amusing business. The casino's backbone is its staff. Gambling has supported their jobs and livelihoods. It's about understanding people, reading their emotions, and making their experience memorable, not just dealing cards or spinning roulette wheels. Don't forget professional poker players. Gamblers, strategists, psychologists, and entertainers. Gambling is becoming an art, career, and profession

Gambling career: subjective? Maybe. It's clear that many consider it a lifestyle, not just a game

What do you all think?

Gambling is a game not a job. You must be able to distinguish the differences between the two because they can give different results. A real job will guarantee a salary every month, but in gambling you will be faced with two sides, winning and losing. As long as there is still the possibility of losing, you should not rely on your luck by making gambling a full-time job.
