Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job

[EarnOnVictor]

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!

There is no guarantee of winning in gambling, after all gambling is not a career or job that requires you to do it full time. You can win a bet today, but you cannot win it the next day. If you depend on gambling for your financial needs (as a gambler) then I think you will really get into trouble.

Have fun gambling if you do, but don't make gambling a source of income because you never know whether you will win or lose. It would make more sense to trade as a full-time job instead of gambling, so think wisely.

The most funniest thing about gambling is that no matter how professional you are at it, you can't have an 100% winning streak. You will definitely lose somethings. Although one can easily earn from gambling if we'll managed but taking it as a full time job may be risky.

It will be very bad for someone who chooses gambling as a full-time job because one cannot win consistently by gambling for a long time.  And one who gambles for a long time becomes deeply addicted to gambling.  And one who chooses gambling as a full time job must gamble at least 8 hours daily as an official time and if he gambles for such a long time he will become deeply addicted and face huge losses. so gambling should never be chosen as a full time job

Strangely as this might sound, there are people who gamble as their source of livelihood and they are fine. You can investigate that in your own way, and you will discover that there indeed exists career gamblers. But can I depend on gambling as my only source of living? Never. I can't advise anyone to do so as well as this will only amount to irresponsibility, nothing else. Gambling can only favour a very few percentage of people for a living and will disfavour most of them who attempt it. Also, it is a few who have all it takes to gamble and give it the right fight and still manage to earn consistently and manage their portfolio alongside for a long period of time without them losing focus or getting emotional in such a way that causes them to lose like the regular gamblers.

I never see this coming in my own gambling visions and I know that it is a risk too high that I would not even give a thought not to talk of practising it. Nonetheless, it is late already, I have other things to do for a living aside from gambling, so I can only imagine this, I can never risk it no matter what. The more you depend on gambling, the more you are likely to lose focus and get emotional because you will need the money, and when it is not forthcoming, that is where the issue starts. I view this as a practical irresponsibility because gambling in the first place should be meant for fun or passive income if someone would ever get money from it, and not for a sole means to depend upon for a living.

Yes, you are right, usually those who say that are people who don't have a job and are unemployed, whereas the fact is that gambling requires money, how can you make money from gambling, if you just have to play you have to need money, gambling can't be used as a full-time job because Indeed, anyone has to work to earn money for their living needs and then play gambling just to have fun as entertainment.

That's what should be done to make gambling just an entertainment game and not be used as a source of income let alone a full-time job, I think it's also strange to talk about that because it doesn't make sense unless those who want to make gambling a full-time job are at least someone who have businesses that generate money to fund their gambling.

[Rabata]

I know there are many people who regard themselves as professionals at playing gambling games, but do you ever think that one can make gambling a full-time job and career because of his or her deep knowledge of the games? Can someone bet with little or no loss because it is one of the most unpredictable games to play?

I never think that one can win in gambling if he can analyze thoroughly in gambling. Moreover, no matter how experienced he is, he cannot make any certain prediction about victory. And if in such a situation a person cannot take one as a full time job anyway. He may be ahead in gambling due to good analysis or experience in gambling but depending on it there is no chance to ever consider it as the main source of income. Although there are people in gambling who are professional gamblers but they have sufficient means of other income besides gambling. I don't think it is possible to lead life depending on this uncertain income.

[bakasabo]

Has anyone tried gambling for 4-8 hours 5 days a week to make gambling as a regular full time job? I think it will be quite emotionally exhausting to do that. Moreover, if gambling would really be a profession, then it will mean that people would only earn from that (you dont go to work to lose money or work for free). Only earning from casinos means casino go bankrupt. That wont be a long lasting job.

I am of the opinion that we should have several sources of income, there should also be passive sources of income, only in this case you can feel confident that even if you cannot work, you will still have the means to existence. As for making money from gambling, it’s too stressful for me that I wanted to turn it into my job, it’s just entertainment and nothing more.

Yes, of course, there are those who make money from gambling, but there are not many of them, and I admit that they are also susceptible to loses, that can affect their mood. I need everything to be predictable, only in this case I feel comfortable.

Gambling is filled with too many uncertainties to be a full time job, infact it's a 50/50 game so making such a job opportunity will be very risky for anyone who tries to because they can't be sure of how much they can make at a particular time or how much they will be loosing aswell so it's better not to think in such direction at all as it's a more risky than profitable.

Gambling for eight hours daily is definitely going to expose such person to too much risk that they will not be able to recover well enough anytime soon, they will definitely get to addiction and they may result to unhealthy habits in the long run after been unable to continually win so as to fund their gambling habit continually. It's always advised that you get a good paying job and let gambling be something you do on the side and not to be seen as a profession because it's filled with uncertainties.

Has anyone tried gambling for 4-8 hours 5 days a week to make gambling as a regular full time job? I think it will be quite emotionally exhausting to do that. Moreover, if gambling would really be a profession, then it will mean that people would only earn from that (you dont go to work to lose money or work for free). Only earning from casinos means casino go bankrupt. That wont be a long lasting job.

Full time job means working 8 to 10 hours. In our country usually full time jobs have to do duty till 10 to 12. In this case if we consider gambling as a full time job then we have to spend 8 to 10 hours on gambling site every day. A professional gambler does not spend 8 to 10 hours daily on gambling sites so gambling is never considered a full time job. But many people can spend two to three hours in gambling but it can be taken as a part time job but never possible to take gambling as a full time job.
Moreover, as a full time job one gets a certain amount of salary at the end of the month but in case of gambling one should not expect to get it because in gambling there are two types of possibilities one is loss and the other is profit. So if there is no fixed amount of salary at the end of the month in a full time job then why should people accept it as a full time job?

I don't think how enough fund and time keep in the gambling platform more than 4 until 8 hours because we need much fund for deposit in gambling account, if any one get regular time more than 8 hours in daily I don't sure his stable financial and how to keep from bankrupt their financial condition.
Its good ideas don't make gambling platform as profession or full time job because the only way to make the owner of gambling platform become rich, have fun with gambling platform when getting rest after working and don't be addict with gambling platform has potential you will loss all do you have.

I personally don't, but I'm sure there are gamblers like that. they don't make gambling their main income. but they gamble every day. After work they gamble and such activities are carried out repeatedly.
I'm not sure how tiring such activities are, but I'm sure some of us have seen such activities of gamblers. however, gambling cannot be made into a life-sustaining job for a gambler. There must be another job that is a source of finance for the gambling activities carried out. The issue of how much is spent on gambling is a personal matter.

Maybe few people can try gambling like that, while others will not be able to do it. There will be many emotions that will arise when playing gambling for that long every day. Maybe they can try it in a card game where several people have skills at playing cards and can win. But most gamblers still won't be able to do it. People also have to calculate how much money they can use to gamble during that time and they also have to think about the possibility of losing. If it's all not worth it, they don't have to do it, and most of the time, it won't be worth it.

Playing gambling for a full hour can cause your emotions to be out of control, let alone gambling for four to eight hours every day. It will make a person frustrated, especially if he experiences a lot of losses while he is gambling.

[Unbunplease]

In principle, gambling can become your main job, but you need to treat it as a job - differentiate the risks, carefully study what you bet on, choose strategies that allow you to earn with minimal risk, and you also need to carefully dispose of available funds

[erep]

you are right, that gambling cannot be a permanent job even though the gambler has no other job and gambles all the time, but gambling can be used as a permanent income or passive income for business people who have funded casinos because investors definitely get income from daily and even monthly gambling profits, because they only receive profits but they never gamble.

so they have made the wrong decision to make gambling a permanent job, gambling cannot be used as passive income because the ratio of losses will definitely be higher than wins, gamblers do not even recover losses let alone earn passive income from gambling.

Gambling isn't the same as trading or investing. Even if we learn it seriously and do deep analysis, no chance to ensure the win in gambling. Moreover, when we play luck-based gambling games. The only factor that can determine whether we win or lose, is our luck. Sure, it is impossible to get certain income from gambling that we expect from winning the games.

You're right, that matter makes no chance for hoping the full-time job in gambling. We must get a job that can earn stable income, we need to fulfill our daily, weekly, or monthly necessities. If we rely on the gambling, surely we can't fulfill the necessities because we don't know when we will win the prizes. As far as I know, people even mostly got losses in gambling.

It's impossible to make a steady winning from gambling and this is because no one can accurately predict the outcome of the times consistently and for that, we have to avoid anything that includes higher risks such as continuous wagering,  this will make professionalism a baseless practice because there will all end in loses.

Many of those who chose this path have always ended up in losses or even addictions because sometimes it will allow you to push further than you can bear if you gamble for the money as a profession.

Taking gambling as a profession is normal except we are not making profits from it. We don't need to stress ourselves if we are making clean profits from betting. We can bet as long as we like if we are rest assured that we are making consistent profits from betting even though it is nit as huge was we want. We are so many profession and seen all of us as human can not be doing the same profession with other, we can choose gambling as a profession if we are skilled and ready to take appropriate measures to ensure that we keep making profits as we keep gambling.

Full time job means working 8 to 10 hours. In our country usually full time jobs have to do duty till 10 to 12. In this case if we consider gambling as a full time job then we have to spend 8 to 10 hours on gambling site every day. A professional gambler does not spend 8 to 10 hours daily on gambling sites so gambling is never considered a full time job. But many people can spend two to three hours in gambling but it can be taken as a part time job but never possible to take gambling as a full time job.

So if there is no fixed amount of salary at the end of the month in a full time job then why should people accept it as a full time job?

Choosing gambling as a profession has some skill requirements, like any other job. The gambler needs to calculate the house edge, and then venture into the business with lots of money. I've read of a gambler who chose gambling as a profession and used 70k dollars from his savings to gamble for the rest of his life, after quitting his 9-5 job. He happened to be a skilled gambler, hence didn't waste his money, instead, he's meant to be tired of gambling more than 5 hours every day. Locking himself in the hotel environment. A player who has good information on the percentage available for him in a casino can determine how to manage his funds and how long it'll take him before the whole money finishes. Going with the idea of being a gambler forever, without doing any other thing, the player needs to have money, then skill. However, I'd advise the player to do that on offline casinos compared to online casinos. Why? because of the comps.

Whether the player is winning or losing, he'll be getting points from his comp team that'll be used to pay for his hotel bills, food, and drinks. The gambler can stay focused playing from the casino hotel room, knowing fully well that he's into this as a profession. In the long run, he wins and adds to his general bankroll. Utilizing the online casino as an office can be expensive. The player pays for food and other bills. Comps in physical casinos take care of hotel rooms and food. Eliminating some unnecessary expenses on the gambler. Moreover, the gambler will get tired of doing this each day. It's one difficult job for anybody, regardless of how much the player loves casinos. It gets tiring. Not being able to meet with loved ones, sleeping, and waking up to gamble can affect the player mentally. I wouldn't advise anybody to choose that path of profession. The gambler in my illustration never ran out of bankroll, yes, but it's not good for the brain.

The question is can you make that clean profits from gambling on a continuous basis?

The answer to that is NO,  so why then consider gambling as a profession when you don't have consistency in it,  as a professional you must have a defined path and approach to things,  and how you react to them matters a lot.

Gambling is just for fun and if you have profit as your aim,  it can lead you to a lot of things that you may dislike at the end of the day.

This is actually interesting, but I still don't dare take the risk of becoming a profession just as a gambler, like what happened to my friends where they really couldn't control their gambling, they became addicts and even spent a lot of their assets. If I think a little wiser than making gambling as a profession, why don't we work on a gambling website, either as an admin or own a casino company as well. it will definitely keep us safer from the risks of gambling with big money as a salary. It doesn't need to be instant, the most important thing is that our assets are safe.

The gambler who want to create the full time gambler,he should ready to take the many risk in the gambling site.Because the gambler will not have any money can’t able to take the risk in the gambling site.If you can’t control the gambling game at the beginning of the gambling involvement,later gamblers can’t control their own gambling addiction.Many gamblers will feel after the gambling addiction by skipping the gambling addiction at the earliest stage.If the gamblers had good money in the gambling site,he can take many risk in the gambling game.So the winning possibility also high on the risk gambling.

The problem is not if one can work as a gambling professional and earn from it alone. Although there are people who do not care about the work they do in as much as it is legitimate and brings food to the table. But there are also people who values prestige and as such they ensure the kind of work they do is very much not only legal but also ethical.

Gambling in some countries is illegal and in some countries it is legal but not ethical. Who will be that friend who will be in the gathering of their fellow friends, why others are introducing themselves as programmers, lawyers, designers, they will introduce themselves as a professional gambler. That does not hold any prestige I mean.
