Gambling can be a hope restorer if we go about it wisely!

[Lida93]

As a responsible gambler it gladdens my heart always whenever I hear a fellow gambler testify of how he won a bulky amount of money from be it a bet or lotto and uses that money to inject into something meaningful for himself.

It all happened on my way home just this evening. I boarded a public bus and just in front of me were seated two young men too in their late thirty's having a conversation and from the conversation it sound like they haven't met for a long time and one was telling the other of how he had won a big amount of money from a lotto he played and he has used the money to get himself a new bus for public transportation business.

According to him, he once had a bus before which he was using for the transport business (carrying of passengers) but was seized and confiscated by the authority for he used it in conveying contraband goods of which he was hired to carry to some location by the goods owner on the way law enforcement agents stop them did a search and that was how he lost that vehicle.

So winning that money he quickly went ahead to get a new bus to continue his public transport business. From his voice he seems like one whose lost hope has been restored by that single win. Gambling can be a life saver too for it's not as bad as non-gamblers portrays it. To all gamblers' when you get lucky make good use of your gambling win do not chase for double portion.

There have been several cases similar to this and most times you can only relate with the joy people who win jackpot as long as you’ve had a single win from gambling .
Gambling is more of a two edge sword that produces both good and bad results which all depends on how wisely and safely we practice whatever we do and the ability to be consistent with whatever our safety practices might be is one way to stay profitable in the industry.
Well, gambling can be a hope restorer and also the reverse but it all depends on our attitude towards each scenario as well as how lucky we can be most times.

This is one of many gambling stories I've heard. Some people can make good use of the blessings they get from gambling, turning it into something useful. Gambling has the potential to change lives, but it can also be destructive if not handled wisely. Many gamblers win frequently, but only a few manage to spend their winnings wisely on something productive.

 Unfortunately, some may choose to bet again and end up losing the money. Responsible gamblers should prioritize spending their winnings wisely, just like the man in your story did. His so should be an example for other gamblers out there who might also have a taught of returning their winnings back to gamble again.

Yes gambling wins can bring about a whole lot of joy and relief. Definitely when a gambler makes wins he would be very happy especially in cases where he never thought he would. Sometimes when gamblers stake they put little belief in the amount they may win especially when the odds of winning are thin.

This is not to say that gamblers should put too much hope when they stake as there are always chances of losses and sometimes even when These chances are low the gambler could still end up with a loss. One should try not to put too much hope on the wins and also endeavor to stake responsibly.

Thank you for reminding us all to be responsible gamblers as well as wise in terms of allocating the winning money if they do manage to win. However allocating money from gambling winnings to some other more useful things is indeed a very good idea, anyone can do this because every gambler must have their own luck to get a win and it is a choice whether you can humble greed not to put the winnings back on gambling and prefer to put it on something more useful as the OP said that the person he found preferred to buy a new bus as a means of business or not.

I understand that it is not easy to do this, but I think you make it easy if you have a proper understanding of gambling such as "gambling is a probability activity" with this I think you are less likely to apply greed for something bigger because you understand that this victory is generated because you are lucky, and on the other hand as we know that anyone will never know when he will be lucky. So of course allocating the winnings to something useful is a good idea rather than going back to gambling and regretting it all again.

Yes, not only can gambling be a hope restorer, but it has also been a life changer to many who gambled and luckily won a huge sum, because one similarity I have come to notice about all those who won this huge sum while gambling is that non ever knew they will win when they won, but it all came as a surprise, hence, this should be a lesson to all of us to always have an open mind while gambling, so as to accept whatever result that may come our way with an amount we can always afford to lose, so that if we win, we accept it that way, but if we lose, we also accept it with good fate without regret. Rather than gambling all you have with the mindset gambling will someday restore your hope.

Some people may just not be lucky as this guy, but I like the guy that he dd not misuse the luck he has with gambling. Some people would win huge amount of money but they will continue to gamble and gambling will take all and more from these kind of people. It is important for people to be wise while gambling. But people should not always think like this that they should gamble to win huge amount because the success of someone may affect another person while trying to also win from gambling. These type of luck is not for everyone. Although it is good to try such with small amount of money sometimes.

Reality check: There is no guarantee that you can win the bets and make money that can be used to restore whatever you are hoping would restore and thinking in that way is wrong and which is what leads for someone to gamble for wrong reasons. Glorifying win can lead to destruction of many and the one individual who won may not disclose about how many times he lost while doing for the same reason. But you bet and won an amount that is considerably big then make use of it something more useful than just spending on booze and girls.

[Makus]

People in my locality have this conception that, any money won from gambling, or gotten from any other source that seem illegal, can't be used to do anything good in their lives. They think money from gambling has this mojo on It, that anyone possession spends it anyhow. But they don't know that, the believe they hold tight is just the reason they misuse the money from gambling. Anyway I don't blame them, because if you observe closely you'll find out that it really working for them. But my believe has always been neutral, because your spending decision I'd your choice to make. However, one could use the money to start up a business. That is if, he doesn't use the tire mo ey to gamble again.

[Hamphser]

It all matters with someones perspective and decisions towards their lives on which not all people would really be having that kind of mindset when it comes on securing their winnings.
Whereas there would really be those people who would really be just spending up their money wayback into gambling and aiming for more, and there are those winners who would really be
having that kind of smart or wise thinking that they would really be needing to apply or make something valuable or could really help themselves on building up their future.
Yes, gambling could give out those kind of opportunities but its not something that you should rely on, because on the time that you would be seeing this as your last resort or chance
then you are just basically making  yourself that getting addicted with it even more and might be ending up on the opposite side of things or speaking about negative things.

Going by the age factor you mentioned, it can be deduce that the person is of middle age, and is always expected that at that age if you get yourself a good amount of money, what is utmost expected from you is to make good investment of such money. as a gambler, there are some days that the fruit of your labor will come out successful, and the only way you can show for the fact that you've been a successful gambler is what you've been doing with those money you've been winning over time, so the young man was wise enough to invest the money he won through gambling into a transportation business and it shows that he knows what he is doing.

People should open their eyes and make this reality check which its true that there's no way that this could really be applied to everyone. Being lucky would really be that not something that could be obtained but rather it would really be a random thing. It is really just that what makes this industry becomes that profitable is that peoples motives and hopes are really that something not that realistic.
If you are really that trying out to achieve your dreams via gambling then most likely or a guaranteed thing that you would really be messing up instead. Why? being lucky could be random
and not everyone could hit up a jackpot. If you do have all the luck in the world then its possible, but how we would be able to know that?
There's no way that we could be able to point it out.

[Gozie51]

He must have won some huge amount of money for him to have been able to buy a bus for himself and I hope he has learnt his lessons not to involve himself in contraband goods or lifting of armed robbers because some of the bus drivers enter into bad "business " and gang robbery at night, this is just a twist to it. But the point is he has to be careful now that it seem he has been compensated by having a jackpot.

He is lucky with this winning because not many wins such money to be able to get themselves a bus. And he did well to take action immediately and not to start thinking of doubling his winning by being greedy to bet more which is what takes back winning from gamblers. Greed is such that makes a gambler go back to zero level after winning.

I agree!

If you are trying out to copy someones luck then you would be ending up on being that desperate with every gambling sessions that you could have on which you will really be pursuing on the things that they have that gained or able to experience on which it would be leading into desperation and we know that what desperation could come next?  Being impulsive on every decisions and dealing that you are currently
handling with and this is something not really that good when you do play gambling.

The main priority that we do have in life is on how to become rich or simply does have that kind of financial freedom and this is where you would really be having those kind of assumptions
that you could really be able to acquire it through gambling. So trying out to mimic and copy would lead up into disaster. So its never been that
recommendable that you should really be tolerating that kind of urge of emotion.

one was telling the other of how he had won a big amount of money from a lotto he played and he has used the money to get himself a new bus for public transportation business.

It's always very nice to hear positive experiences from gamblers about their winnings, which helped them to acquire enough money to start a business or achieve a dream they were wishing for so long. I believe the best side of the stories isn't the fact of eaning a large sum of money, but the decision they made in using that money for purposeful improvements in their personal lives.

Sometimes people are hopeless, they don't know what to do anymore to improve their life status and reach a more comfortable lifestyle. It seems all they have tried has failed along the years, so the luck factor is very important in these cases to give a boost, to raise their moral and confidence, consequently making them believe things can get better, when they least expect. In few cases I agree with you: gambling, an activity heavily influenced by the luck factor, can help to restore hope which has been lost for so long...

However, we shouldn't count on this as our last salvation plan. If something good has to come through gambling, let it happen naturally. Never force anything on this matter. Never act irresponsibly expecting positive outcomes from your desperate actions.

Some people may just not be lucky as this guy, but I like the guy that he dd not misuse the luck he has with gambling. Some people would win huge amount of money but they will continue to gamble and gambling will take all and more from these kind of people. It is important for people to be wise while gambling. But people should not always think like this that they should gamble to win huge amount because the success of someone may affect another person while trying to also win from gambling. These type of luck is not for everyone. Although it is good to try such with small amount of money sometimes.

the guy in the story is lucky enough to win good amount of money and buy what he needed for his business. not all gamblers who have money problems can have such luck in his life, so for most, do remember that when you go inside the casino and start playing, always remember to use the money that you can afford to lose and the money that is supposedly to buy an important thing. else, you are mostly screwing up your next plans for the money that you have.

He must have won some huge amount of money for him to have been able to buy a bus for himself and I hope he has learnt his lessons not to involve himself in contraband goods or lifting of armed robbers because some of the bus drivers enter into bad "business " and gang robbery at night, this is just a twist to it.

Greed is such that makes a gambler go back to zero level after winning.

that's a very expensive lesson, so i guess that's a memorable one to last a lifetime. with the new bus, for sure, he will not go in the same route as before. otherwise, he is just ruining this chance for himself. at least this one, he got what he had lost. and hopefully, learn something about what to do and what not to do in his line of business. not many people can have their second chance and win from it.

Honestly these fairytale stories that constantly seem to pop up on the forum are a bit ridiculous and barely comprehensible or logical half the time. You know contraband usually refers to illicit goods, right? As in he was breaking the law and that's why he got a vehicle seized, so is hardly in need of sympathy. How does he jump from running a public transportation business, which would suggest he is carrying passengers, and end up transporting goods instead? How long before he tries to take another shortcut because of greed? It sounds like an incredibly wasteful way to operate. However it sounds completely dreamed up anyway, not least because most gamblers stick their money back in the game rather than getting substantially lucky and cashing out.

[Wiwo]

I have hard many of such life changing through gambling before and majority of those testimonies comes from sport bettors and lottery player's, but then also before you become that lucky to win such huge amounts as jackpot you will have to first of all be active gamblers and at some point have recorded alot of loses in the past.

Because such winnings hardly comes to newbies gambler's who never experienced loses or being a regular gambler's unless if the games code were given to him by another person and he happens to stake it and becomes lucky to have win.

[Iroh]

I would say that guy is just lucky to win an amount that enabled him to purchase another bus. And he’s wise enough to put that money to good use. With money gotten from gambling, he got back on track so I guess in a way,, gambling could be a hope restorer like you put it if you go about it wisely. There are lots of people that have won huge sums and go ahead to put it to good use as well as lots of people that have won huge sums and go ahead to squander it, losing it all in no time.

I don’t think the thought of gambling being a “hope restorer”  could turn out healthy for some people. When gamblers start to depend on gambling as a last resort to get that win that would turn things around, that’s when the decline into addiction slowly starts.

And unfortunately, what we find in society is that the impact of gambling is actually more negative for gamblers. especially those who may have just entered and are tempted by the various prize advertisements being promoted. Indeed, this will really depend on each person's individual personality, maturity, and also their readiness both mentally, financially, and also understanding in gambling. But not everyone can prepare all this when they want to enter gambling.

That's why there are so many cases where people lose money quickly, become bankrupt, and have various other negative impacts as a result of getting involved in the world of gambling. even though we are talking about the fact that gambling can also help us by getting prizes from gambling if we can control it and make the best use of it. but unfortunately the facts on the ground are quite difficult to find. So, there really is a need for education about gambling before people actually enter the world of gambling. ideally it's like this. However, once again, maybe we can say that it is rare for people to prepare when they are going to gamble.
