Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job

[Oasisman]

Ideally betting like a pro requires a lifestyle change and when you take up gambling as a lifestyle you will experience significant financial changes.

What aspect of financial challenges are you expecting? Is it negative or positive growth because there is no guarantee with being a professional gambler. No doubt that you would also be making some profit but he will also be losing big because he will have to stake higher. I believe maybe streamers can have probably a steady outcome either they are in collaboration with the casino but to be a independent professional gambler doesn't have a guarantee of financial break through.

Challenges of becoming broke.
I don't really believe someone could consistently make a living out of purely gambling or betting on a specific casino, because no matter how good or how pro you are with Poker and other table card games, there are always gonna be a person who's better than you or equally as good as you, not today but maybe tomorrow. You win some, but most of us have lost more. So, in order for someone to make gains consistently he needs to do something like these streamers do. Yeah, I'm talking about referrals and endorsements, get paid to invite more users while you're actively gambling with your own money.

[Huppercase]

But, in a broader sense, can you make gambling a career path, abandoning all other sources of income to focus entirely on it?
If so, why?
If not, please advise!

Gambling can never be a career because Notting is certain in times of gambling and however the only thing we can consider to be our career is something we are sure of generating income either daily or monthly, so gambling can never be considered as a daily, weekly or monthly income generator because there is every possibility that someone could stay up to two months without wining a single game so if perhaps you depend on the gambling to survive how would you take care of your needs when you have not won a bet  for two months?

I no that there are people who are seriously benefiting from gambling but that doesn't mean that gambling can favour everybody.

I'm not sure about the new generation of gamblers that we have today but I remembered back in the days when we use to gamble and phones were not available for everyone to gamble online, we have to go to the physical offices to place bet and they have to be printed on paper and tick all games played with a pen when games are completed and when l the games have been played, you go back to the office with the winning paper to collect your winnings and during this process, we used hide from public because people see gambling as a very bad thing in the society but today, I'm shock how people want to use that for career and opportunity about earning in life, isn't that funny? 

Today, you see even parent now see gambling as opportunity to make money but this is a concerning issue that the government has to look. When people start to think that gambling is now place to make money, then I think the country has lost it's glory. Only a country where there is no plenty of job opportunities will want to use gambling as means to put money on the table.

No matter how safe it would be, it's never an option to adopt the idea of gambling... We all know how hard times have been recently, but don't ever try it.
Nevertheless, I've seen peeps that indulge in that and I sometimes wonder how they cope with funds to recycle the process; most times, they're successful - but what's the possibility of becoming like 'em if you decide to begin? Mind you they'll never tell you if they lose; all you'll get to see is what they allow you to see, which are the win tickets.

What nobody will tell you how much he/she has lost and you will be busy celebrating his/her wins which is likely to be advertised openly. Most of them when what they have lost have been subtracted from their win, they're still losing by a great margin. No matter how hard the times are, gambling as a profession will only make things harder for the person indulging in it. we've heard stories of people who went that route and ended up very frustrated and depressed that some even consider suicide. Gambling addiction looks like it promises a good life, but its a wolf in sheep clothing. there's a lot of fake realization in gambling world, its very enticing in the beginning, but the end is mostly disappointing. most people that started happily and with a lot of hope later finished with a painful experience. lets not wait to learn from experience alone. We should be very mindful of things we make a habit. Our habit should be something that should be of positive value only and not what we know that has a greater possibility to pull us down in the long run.

First of all,  gambling shouldn't be considered as a profession but rather as just a fun fair event,  and not too much priority should be given to how much is possible to win from gambling because that is the sure way to record losses at a steady pests.

Most gamblers are really that are on losses and the proof is that there are lots of gambling businesses out there which we do know that they do really launch up every now and then which
it do really means that they are really that a profitable business because of these kind of lossers who do keep on coming back into gambling and then losing up all the way.
Its never been that ideal that you should really going further because you would really be messing up your entire life or finances if you do keep that kind of behavior.
This is why it is really that important that moderation would really be crucial when it comes to this, because if you dont then you would really be ending up on disaster.

[FanEagle]

I believe that people who can do this, will do it at non-casino games and that's possible in that case. Poker for example is a great money maker for some people who are good at it, you play against others. When we are talking about casino games, it's hard. I have a friend who actually managed to make sports betting his profession, this didn't happen because he was great at it when he started, but he was doing silly very high odd games with small amounts just because he assumed if he wins once, then his whole life would change.

He actually did get lucky once, won like 20x more than his salary, and he realized, if he could up his betting a bit, and keep doing that, even if he wins only once a year, he would be able to live with that, and for the past 7-8 years he has achieved that, won multiple times a year every year, and made a good chunk of money, even changed his car and got a good one, and I think it should be noted that he could lose for a few years in a row now, and still wouldn't be poor.

That's what gamblers should do, never consider gambling as a profession or full-time job, let alone part-time, it's clearly impossible to do a job without making any money, the job requires using skills, not money, to bet on gambling and that doesn't seem like a job because if It is considered a job that is definitely not worthy of being called a job because it involves losses and a lot of money is used for betting.

Gambling should only be used as a place of entertainment, nothing more than to seek pleasure because if you consider it as a job, it is clear that it will not produce a salary like working in other places, so that is the mindset that must be used by gamblers, don't think of gambling as a work, this must be done so that people do not take the wrong path because it is not appropriate to make gambling a job that makes money.

Yeah, there is no such thing as shame anymore. People should not care about what an individual does. That's the motto of the era today. Gambling, sex, pornography, cruel jokes, and more bad things are now on social media, and worse they are the clips that have lots of views than what is good. The advent of social media platforms made people change their point of view about things that are traditionally bad in the eyes of the old. It's a new era indeed.

Well, thankfully I am not a parent who is looking for gambling as an opportunity to be my daily profits to feed my kids. There are still a lot of jobs out there that will surely give me the payroll that I need instead of risking my way into gambling where there's no assurance if you will make something for a day or not. That's the trouble when someone makes it a profession, you will never know what could happen in a day. The worst-case scenario is getting rekt and ending up without any food on the table. I never want to be in that position again.

It is a true fact that indeed most gamblers suffer huge losses because of their countless losses, is that reasonable? obviously I would say it is very reasonable because as you said that it is true that casinos are a profitable business but not for losers like gamblers who always expect big wins by depending on luck but all profits are entirely only for the bookie who owns the casino itself.

Another proof is that don't you know or experience that there are more losses than wins? Then why don't you feel suspicious of gambling at all and why don't you look for reasons why it always happens, I think this is a matter of misunderstanding driven by beliefs and expectations that are so high that it is very difficult to reach awareness to at least improve the situation.

What people misunderstand is that they think a professional gambler is someone who just gambles and earns money through it and is living a life through the earnings of gambling alone, which isn't true. As you said, a professional gambler might just be gambling, but it's not that they are always winning and never losing a cent to the casino, but it's just that they get endorsements, they promote platforms, and get paid for that, they refer people and earn affiliate commission on that, and there are a bunch of other things that they do to earn money.

So, reality check for some people: professional gamblers lose as well, they don't have a crystal ball that tells them the outcome of every single bet before they even make it only to get it correct.

However, that is about gambling games, but if we talk about sports betting, there can be people in sports betting who can make money without having to do anything else because they deeply understand the sport that they are betting on, and the teams and players involved as well.

Everything seems like it's normal because of the amount of bad things we see on social media, this is something that can attack the mindset and also that can change a person's behavior and point of view unconsciously, a kind of hypnosis. And as for whether it will have an impact or not I think it comes back to each individual about whether they can filter things by only absorbing positive things or even vice versa.

That's right, basically there are still quite a lot of alternatives that they can take to make it a place to make money that is quite promising and basically outside of gambling which is entirely dependent on luck and there is no certainty whatsoever there. For those who still think or choose gambling to make money I would honestly say that they are nothing more than a loser who wants money but doesn't want to sweat it out and just depends on luck which is clearly difficult to find. So it's better to find a place that can guarantee to give you income, gambling is not a profession but it is nothing more than a trap for fools.

Otherwise you will succumb to greed and become addicted to gambling

For sport betting we can make little research about team favorite exactly in football match, but I don't see any research or patter with when casino betting and seems difficult for winning just depend with lucky only. You can make gambling as profession but its not recommended exactly how many people more loss their fund than how much profitable earned. I don't see some one success with achievement result become billionaire from gambling although have several years experience in gambling.
For me, gambling is an entertainment only without focus should win on every bet and not spent much money for every day have active in betting platform.

I still don't understand how someone around there could possibly believe there is a chance to turn gambling into some kind of "job" or profession, while at the same time seeing so many people getting in trouble or losing money to it.
If one wants to get involved such an industry one is not supposed to gamble but rather seek for opportunities as an employee, agent or publicist of the casino, an actual job I mean.
I agree with you that it would be easier to make sportbetting a profession but it does not mean it would be easy to accomplish, though. It takes much capital and also some good intuition/luck to achieve the status of professional bettor.

We can't generalize that as there are expereinced gamblers who continue to work with gambling, though it's just a small portions or really very few can make that happen but we can't conclude that there are none who can make money out from their gambling activities, though majorities will lose as gambling was designed to make money out from the gamblers pocket, and like you, I rather treat gambling as entertainment venue and not a place to make an stable profits.

It is pretty true. It is not a wise decision to make gambling be the main job because we can't expect to earn money constantly in gambling. Most gambling games are based on the luck, it is very difficult to always win in the games. Although we already played the games for many years, there will be always no guarantee to win them. Sure, experienced gambler must have better chances to win, but it doesn't mean guarantee the wins. Because of this uncertainty, it is better to gamble as a side activity. Or to make gambling just for fun activity. Don't try to rely for monthly income from gambling, it is a very high risky!

Maybe a gambling job that can be done because the profit is more certain is to be a casino owner or when we already have a win rate in sports betting it is quite good and open a tipster service, because the tipster will get money from the gamblers who use their services and usually the tipster will have two services which are free and paid and when gamblers are satisfied with the free ones there is a big chance of joining the paid ones because if gambling activities such as betting or playing casino games are turned into a job, it is very difficult to make a profit or target a profit that can be used for living expenses., because today we can win a lot but tomorrow it could be the opposite and because we can't control ourselves, it's not only yesterday's profits that run out but also our capital.

One can take up gambling as a full time job if he gets a job in a casino company for live games like Live Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, Andarbahar etc.. Because for these the cassette site will pay you a certain amount which will be your job payment. So it can be considered as a full time job and you can continue it but investing your own money in gambling can never be considered as a full time job.

I agree with your point of view totally. Gambling is so luck dependent that you literally need to be lucky to pull through on every stake, even the most skilled and knowledgeable person sometimes, turns out unlucky and probably end up loosing their funds to the casino and sometimes in the bid to probably win back, you become addicted.

I usually advised that it doesn't matter how skilled you may want to consider yourself to be, it's very important you don't at any point turn dependent on gambling as it will definitely disappoint you in the long run, except you are lucky to have a big win that makes up for your losses over the period of time, but then it's not ideal to ever see gambling as worthy of a job opportunity because it's not sustainable and it will definitely disappoint you in the long term.

You will be in poverty without a doubt. Obvious some people may decide to just try their chance and test this out and if they fail to do that with certain amount, they may stop and not become poor, which is quite possible.

However, if your "dream" is to gamble as a profession and make money that way, you are going to end up becoming poor because you will keep trying, why end up quitting on your dream? If it's your dream then you are going to dream it and that's how you are going to end up getting to a terrible point, you should just avoid doing anything and you should be considering the situation to be not that great, and just keep on losing. Just don't, stop, that's not a dream, that's a nightmare, you will lose it all.
