The worst situation you're in that you regret that you learn about gambling

[Jaycoinz]

There are actually not anything about the "money" side that I regret, but I do regret the amount of time that I wasted to "wager" and to mindlessly push a button to play the slots.

Games are developed to keep you gambling... you will continously win small amounts and then you continue gambling.. until you run out of money.

So you are wasting something that are more important than money, namely quality time with your family and friends.

I can relate very well with what you are saying because my case was actually quite different from yours but it's same old thing gambling is something that was design to keep you playing till all is gone and that's why am always scared of involving myself that much because anytime I remember the money I lost, it just triggers me to go and try again which if you eventually go back because of greed then you can actually come to the decision that gambling isn't something anyone can rely on.

I was talking to a friend who used to be a compulsive gambler and is now a responsible gambler and I asked him what made him decide to be rehabilitated is it because of the money, he said its not.

It was because of the situation that he was in and that a friend asked him to keep his money it was his saving and he was about to buy a new cell and he only needed a week to complete the money and he didn't keep it in the house he might use it so he decided to entrust the money to him because his friend had complete trust on him.

Unfortunately because of his addiction, he was tempted to use the money to gamble thinking that he could double the money and give his friend a share so he could buy a more expensive cellphone, unfortunately, he lost the money and surprisingly his friend showed up and asked for the money the day after he loss the money.

He has no choice but to tell the truth, his friend does not know that he is a gambler so to forgive him for what he did his friend asks him to undergo rehabilitation, he was so embarrassed that he regrets learning about gambling, and thankful that because of his friend he was rehabilitated.

What's a similar case that you're in that made you regret that you learned gambling?

Your contribution is appreciated.

Never regret it as I have never done something dumb or irresponsible while gambling, and about your story the friend that got their trust betrayed is probably the best friend the addicted gambler could have hoped for, because if I am honest that is the kind of thing I would never forgive, not that I would give my money away to someone else to keep it in store, after all the ability of being your own bank is one of the most attractive characteristics of bitcoin to me, however you also mention that your friend is now a responsible gambler, but I doubt it, once a person experiences an addiction, trying to somehow just moderate it will never work, he needs to quit for good if he does not want to go through that hell again.

I don't have regrets about learning gambling in my life. That's my own choice. That's my own decision. No one forced me to do it.

Being responsible in gambling is hard to learn as the main ingredient for that to achieve is to experience all the possible worst situations we can encounter in gambling. I haven't experienced yet the considered too worst situation in gambling but I know that if that happens, I will still not regret learning gambling in my life.

Gambling is everywhere. It's up to us if we will turn into shit gamblers or not. Don't blame gambling for that.

That was actually a bad experience -- too bad to have been overlooked... I'll make him pay every single dime, maybe it'll serve as a deterrent to avoid any form of repetition next time. I've never seen a time where any form of addiction makes a positive impact on anyone... It's usually from cases like this to something even worse... Seen similar cases and the brief question that pops up in me is - what if the money was meant for the person's utility bill, rent etc??
This should teach people to not have full Trust on a human... Always try to understand that anything can happen and people can decide to change - either for good or for bad.

I, too, have never once in my life regretted learning about gambling. I played poker, bet, for me this is the most attractive type of gambling because I like to use my brain in games. I once played roulette, which requires absolutely no mental decisions and this is what almost led me to completely lose my small deposit during my student years. I wanted to play a little, but then I started using the old Martin Gale strategy (almost all players know about it), and I lost half of my deposit. I started to sweat and was ready to curse this damn game because I realized that I had the last bet. And I did it, if I had lost, my balance would have been 0. But I was lucky and I won back. This was the last time in my life when I went to roulette, and everything started out frivolously. It scares me. Now I continue to bet on sports and play poker, but very rarely.

To sum this up, if we say we do regret learning gambling in life, it means we are in a situation where there's no escape. A big problem causing us to become irresponsible and mess up our lives. Regret is a big word. To consider a thing regrettable means it brings emotional stress to the person to the highest level.

Fortunately, I'm not in a situation right now where I can consider gambling as a regrettable thing I did in my life.

Even if I'm losing much doing gambling, it doesn't mean I will forget who I am, and what should I do.

And that is what bitcoin is trying to point out but people refuse to listen, the burden of being our own bank is huge since we have to take care of our coins by ourselves, however it is preferable to carry that burden than to rely on a third party that can steal your money and do whatever they want with it afterwards while you have no recourse to get that money back, as in the case of banks everything they do is legal, and if not they can always change the law so it is.

People would really be just that making out those realizations on the time that gambling did make out that huge impact into their lives in terms of loss of financial but they should have avoid it earlier
if they are really just that sensible towards their actions but they're not. Well, regret is always at the end and not on the front on which people would be starting on making those realizations when they've been fucked up. Dont put up yourself comes into a point that you would really be that making yourself ends up on regretting just because you have made yourself that blind about into those risks involved with gambling Dont wait up for your life to be ending up miserable just because of the wrong decisions you had made out. In my case, theres comes a time that i do bang up my monitor
because of having those consecutive losses. Regrets is there but i do have that controlled losses which i do know that im still that fine on such situation.
