Gambling kills the fun in these two cases

[betswift]

Gambling with more seriousness is very deadly indeed and what is supposed to be fun can suddenly turn bloody or create enmity between friends who don't know when it is already too much fun for one night.
The fun in gambling is the thrill of winning bigger than what we stake and when greed sets in such an environment would become a regular hangout just like an office because of the potential of winning again.

It's meant to be a source of entertainment, but taking it too seriously can indeed sour the experience, transforming what should be fun into a potentially harmful situation. The thrill of winning more than you've staked is a big part of the allure, but it's when greed creeps in that the atmosphere changes. It shifts from a casual, enjoyable activity to something more intense, almost like a job with high stakes. Keeping the spirit of fun and knowing when to call it a night is key to a positive experience.

Hi everyone,

One of the common mistakes in the world of gambling now is that some people run to make quick money and are greedy by betting all their money and trying to make gambling their primary source of income.

I have never seen anybody that makes gambling a source of income except am hearing it for the first time. As far as I know gambling is so difficult to the extent that people doubt of winning and here you are saying that people use it as a means of Income. I think you misunderstood the concept of gambling. Gambling is a game of fun and luck so there is no how a game of luck and fun can be something that people use as a source of income.

Do not make gambling your only source of income or your only means of entertainment, as this will eliminate the first goal of gambling, which is pleasure.

Gambling is not a means of income, anybody who is using it as a means of income is wasting his time because you will spend higher than you earn. Except for those who who are into gambling affiliate marketing.

[Darker45]

You cannot even make it an advice for people to stop treating gambling as their only source of income because gambling cannot be a source of income, in the first place. Gambling can only become a source of income if you own or if you're operating a casino. But if you're only a gambler, forget it. You're the source of income of the casino. It's impossible to be the other way around.

I agree that it's quite dangerous to only have gambling as your only source of entertainment. Not only is it costly, it's also addictive and could even put your life and the lives of your loved ones at risk.

Nah, I don't think there a lot of people who treat gambling as their primary source of income. I mean those few who do this is just plain stupid or a person who doesn't have a family and is living on his own, broke of course.
But it doesn't mean your gambling for entertainment that you're not gonna spend even beyond your budget, because sometimes things gets interesting and you'll get hooked up for a moment not realizing that you have spending beyond your threshold already. That is the reason why you've seen people who seems doesn't care about the amount of losses they make.
I think people have different goals in gambling, some are trying to get entertained and some are aiming to win while having fun.

I don't know why a lot of us have to say this as a reminder but it's a sad and weird thing that people still believe that they can make a steady income out of gambling, either they're so delusional that the reality of the situation doesn't seep into them, it's a really weird world we're living in to be doing all of that stupid thing. That's one part of why gambling business is such a lucrative business, because you have these people that want to try their luck if not push it because there's a promise that they're going to make a lot of money but that's not the case, the ratio of winning to losing is just too high to make it reasonable for someone to be making gambling their profession, of course it's a different story if you know how to play and make a profit like if you're a professional or just really good at poker then by all means make it your way of making a consistent money, got to remember though that a big loss is going to be a big loss and it's better if you try and do some kind of safety net.

[wakier]

It is true that this mistake is quite common among gamblers because they want to get money instantly through gambling and ignore the risks of gambling itself. Someone who understands how gambling games work will not dare to take risks by risking all the money they have or making gambling a the main source of income because there is no guarantee that gambling will give us definite profits. We cannot live our lives depending on gambling, especially if gambling is turned into a job, it will make your life more irregular and the economy more unstable if you experience continuous losses, there is no gambling that continuously gives us profits.

Hi everyone,

One of the common mistakes in the world of gambling now is that some people run to make quick money and are greedy by betting all their money and trying to make gambling their primary source of income. You find them spending hours in casinos and sites, regardless of their losses, trying to make up for it, and this is what often leads to more Of the losses that may lead them to bankruptcy, and there are also those who make betting the only means of entertainment and spending their  free time, even though they do not care about the size of their losses, they ignore the consequences, as the enthusiasm they find while playing will decrease with the passage of time and the matter will become tasteless..

this has been tackled for so many times and that is greediness and selfishness is the reason why people are losing and sometimes even turns into  addictions.
and not considering the size of losses? that is when you already become addicted.

Do not make gambling your only source of income or your only means of entertainment, as this will eliminate the first goal of gambling, which is pleasure.

are you talking about us? lol who are stupid here that will leave our day job just to gamble?  talk to addicted gambler mate .

[Poker Player]

Do not make gambling your only source of income or your only means of entertainment, as this will eliminate the first goal of gambling, which is pleasure.

Well, no.

My take on this is to not make gambling your source of income at all.

The moment a gambler begins to see gambling as a means to make money, he ends up becoming addicted.

This the umpthenth time that a thread like this has been created. And in all of them it has been said that the moment a gambler decides to make gambling his source of income or a way for him/her to earn passively that is the day that the gambler started to ruin his life.

People should avoid thinking at all about trying to make money with gambling over the long term,

A better one should be not to make gambling your main source of income but it could be a good means of entertainment.

And many others. The day you find out that there is a type of gambling with which many people get extra income on a regular basis your will lose your mind, won't you?

Gambling cannot be someone's main source of income, even professional gamblers do it as a secondary means of making money,

That's bullshit.  The difference between a professional player and those of us who earn extra income is that the professional is dedicated to it. It is his main job. What happens is that when they are very famous they also diversify, and for example they open Youtube channels and/or other networks that allow them to get extra income.

[moneystery]

i don't understand the point of people who make gambling their source of income, since gambling has a big chance for someone to lose their money. gambling should be done for entertainment only and not a place to multiply money or make someone rich overnight. because no matter how someone gambles, the house edge is still bigger and this will close the possibility that the player can get more from the casino.

Never ever do gamble for source of income unless you can predict the future and you are the owner of a gambling site . Most people see gamble make quick money and it is very true since all the leaderboard, hall of the fame and huge jackpot usually come at first when you visit gamble sites so it is natural to see like that hahah but in the reality it is not.

Greed is another story, this emotion or feeling already been with us since we are born, it is hard to control it but with a lot of practice we can control it.

My take on this is to not make gambling your source of income at all. Gambling is too risky to be made a source of income. People that are making it a source of income are failing as they lose more than win.

Precisely! but we can't please anyone to follow our advices because some of them really needs to have money, they feel that gamblibg is their only hope for having a money without realizing that instead if gaining money, they more experience losing of it. Gambling as a sounce of income is a huge risk and possible failing of a person's live so if I were them, I will limit myself by hoping that gambling can give or turn us into a millionaire because that's very impossible and if it may happens, it's all about luck

[Kakmakr]

I always say, when you do something for FUN and it stops being FUN.. then stop doing it. In gambling, this can happen quickly.. because the odds are stacked against you to make a profit.

I see gambling as a form of entertainment ... just like money spend on a movie or to ride some kind of carnival rollercoaster. You spend that money to enjoy it and you never regret spending it, because it is adding value in the form of some kind of experience or joy that you got from it.

What is better than sipping on a glass of wine and gambling on your mobile phone, whilst you are sitting in front of a warm fire in the Winter?

Just let them be and dont stress yourself on giving out some advises because once people do have that kind of mindset or things into their mind then its already fixed. They would really be doing those things on what they do have in mind no matter what and this is something that there's nothing we can do about it. They would really be having those kind of treatment and insights towards gambling then so be it.
People wont really be able to learn things not until they would really be able to experience those unfortunate condition as always.Actually we could really be able to make ourselves that stop on mid way
before disaster happens if we are really just that responsible or we are really just that mindful with our actions. We can actually be able to project out on what are those probable things that could happen.
It is really just that people are really that loving to ignore things even if its already that too obvious on where it would really be heading up.

For you to spend all of your time gambling in the aspiration to make income source out of it, the implication there is that you are either a jobless freak or a gambling addict, the end has never been a sweet end for such persons no matter how they will want to try to work it out it's only amount to more and more accumulative losses.

The reliable way to make money is to get a job, make an investment over time, or get a lucrative skill and not by gambling your money and time away with the motive of an income source.

That's where most gamblers get it all wrong especially those addicted one's,you don't wake up one morning and want to decide to take gambling as your source of income.anyone that does such is taking a huge risk .
Definitely it sure does eliminate the fun a lot of responsible gamblers get because it's minimizing the fact that people are entertained through this process.

Majorly this is a typical turn off for me seeing most gamblers chasing over losses and putting all hope in gambling as a source of income or livelihood  but whereas as they do so they should be all set to ascertain any consequences this may result or bring taking up such decisions.

I agree very much with you, in the fact that the very first goal of gambling is usually for pleasure and not to make money but the desperation of wanting to make money which has made some persons find opportunity in gambling and not thinking of probably doing something else with their time but rather gamble for long hrs because they feel they will be able to get a whole lot of money gambling but then they will end up still loosing out because they re exposed to loose as gambling is never a sure means of making money but a game of probabilities.

Some.of these gamblers actually don't give up on gambling they play until they are bankrupt and some will go the extra mile to borrow a d reinvest in gambling a just to keep hope alive and satisfy their craves as gamblers but then it still doesn't justify the fact that it's actually a very unhealthy practice and shouldn't be encouraged.

Gambling to get instant money and making gambling a source of income is a fatal mistake and it's really bad. From the start you have ruined your life because you gambled with that mindset. It's no wonder you say gambling has killed fun. Because from the start you have been gambling just to get instant money. I'm sure you don't gamble for fun but just to make money. If your pleasure is making money then don't gamble. When someone gambles it means he is ready to lose his money. And in return he gets pleasure from several games played, without needing to think about getting a big win.

[len01]

in this case there are still pros and cons because everyone has a different opinion and I also often hear someone say in several threads that if anyone comes to gambling it must only be about money, not about fun and that is true because we gamble using money and even though we gamble just for fun but no one wants to enjoy the fun only briefly.
so even though gambling is just for fun, the gambler definitely wants to keep winning (regardless of the amount) so that he can still enjoy the pleasure in the longer term because if he gets a small win, his budget will definitely not run out quickly.

but for me, gambling is only for fun and there's no harm in setting aside 5%-10% to have fun and try your luck.
the reason I say this is because sometimes when we have fun we get great luck, just as we have fun getting bonuses.
even so, gambling cannot be considered a source of income because logically the gambling business is built as income for gambling owners, not to provide income to customers.
from here it is quite clear and I also often say it like in several other places.

Most gamblers are all on the wrong path, they have a wrong idea about gambling, thats why they spend most times doing it over again.

Gambling is not a source of income and it can never be.

You should spend less time in the casino, and if you like to gamble online, know that the less time you spend on the website the better.

The one thing that I am trying to make you avoid is addiction, the way to make money out of gambling is not through addiction, it will destroy you.

There is no doubt that you can't always win when you gambling, ask yourself what is the best solution?

Have a source of income, use small money to risk on gambling, it doesn't promise money making every day, but you can keep spending on gambling every day and it will give you nothing.

The less money you risk on gambling the better and so therefore it's not something reliable, just do it once in a while with the type of money that you are willing to lose.

[irhact]

Do not make gambling your only source of income or your only means of entertainment, as this will eliminate the first goal of gambling, which is pleasure.

You can make gambling your only source of entertainment and still not get addicted to gambling, you have to be in control of your emotions as a gambler as gambling addiction comes from you not being able to control your emotions therefore you'll be gambling irresponsibly without considering what it's doing to you both financially and mentally. Gambling for fun needs financially backing to sponsor it so you don't get desperate when you don't win and only enjoy the entertainment.

You shouldn't make gambling as a source of making money, gambling should be only for entertainment and you can get a job that'll be playing you salary and becomes a reliable source of income. Gambling should be an activity that you do when you want to pass sometimes through entertainment. If you win while entertaining yourself, take it as a bonus but don't get carried away with the money that you won.
