Never borrow money to be able to gamble

[GreatArkansas]

We should remember that gambling should always be approached with common sense and responsibility to ensure it remains a form of entertainment.

Borrowing money, especially if it will only be used for gambling, will not lead to anything good. It will only become problematic and often leads to debt and financial hardship. Therefore, borrowing money to gamble is a big no-no! If you have borrowed money to gamble, please take this as a sign to stop.

It will not help you with your goal of earning money because you just borrowed money means "debt" and it will lead you to debt accumulation, if you lose the borrowed money, you will still need to repay that.
That's why I am really against the people who will rely on gambling to solve their current financial problems, it's not helping overall.

[Fiatless]

With you knowing this elements, you won't bother to go to the extreme of borrowing money to gamble. So have you borrowed money to gamble? If you do please take notes of this and stop it.

Anyone who borrows to gamble has passed the red line. Such a person needs to check into a gambling disorder rehabilitation centre for immediate medical attention. It is even risky to gamble with money you have budgeted for your basic needs talkless of borrowing money to gamble.

I have had news of people taking loans to gamble because they are sure that they will win. Someone has even told me once to borrow money to place a bet he is offering because he is sure that it will play. However I have observed that there is no certainty when it comes to gambling. Even games from so-called insiders can disappoint. It is better to gamble with only money you can afford to lose or that will not affect your budget.

If You're taking a loan to gamble this is one of the signs that you are an irresponsible gambler, the rule and the guide that every gambler should follow is to gamble only with money that you can afford to lose and loans are money that you cannot afford to lose.
Those who gamble with money that comes from loans are pressured to win I onced gamble with money that comes from the loan and my mindset back then is to try at everymeans to double the money so I can pay the loan and have something left for me to play, so if you don't want people to mark you as addicted to gambling don't play with money that comes from loan you will surely regret it.

Borrowing money to gamble is of course not the right choice to overcome the financial problems we are experiencing. To be able to solve financial problems we have to do work that can provide us with income so that we can solve our own financial problems.
Taking out a loan to gamble is of course very risky and it is very unlikely that someone who borrows money to gamble will then be able to pay it off and if they experience a loss it will of course be difficult to think of a way to pay and it would be good if someone who wants to gamble has their own money and doesn't do it too often so as not to experience unwanted things.

If you see gambling as a business opportunity, why not? Sometimes I do borrow money when I see a game that I believe I could won, but I always limit on how much I would only borrow, and I have to make sure that I'll be able to pay it from my income just incase my bet would be wrong.

This may look like an irresponsible action, but like I mentioned, when i see it as an opportunity, I don't hesitate borrowing, and I think there's nothing wrong with that as long as you know how to pay your debt.

Addicted gamblers know these things but still want to just go ahead and borrow money to gamble because some are unable to control themselves, and whenever the urge for gambling comes, they do not mind how they get the money to gamble; they just want the money to gamble.

Do not lend money to your friends who you know want to borrow money to gamble with; if you do so, you are promoting the bad habit that they are forming.

I strongly agree, people who have addiction know all this, but they don't care and there is no limit to the thoughts in their minds, what they know and want is to get money to gamble, whether it's borrowing or even selling what they have so they can gamble, and what's worse in acute addiction is committing violence to get money or like stealing, to fulfill their desire to gamble.

This may only apply to some beginners who have not been exposed to the addiction caused by gambling, because in health their minds may still be healthy and not so focused on gambling so that prevention can be done, while addicts how can they remember this. LOL

1. That's given, we can always lose. In fact, the chances of losing are higher than it is with winning because of the house edge.
2. Well, still we want to win, so while being entertained we must also analyze the game to the extent that we have given everything to increase the winning chance. Not just blindly betting.
3. I guess that has been said many times. Just spend the amount you won't regret to lose.
4. Chasing losses is part of the game but not to the extent that we are spending money that ain't supposed to be for gambling anymore. i.e. bills, mortgage, loans.
5. Responsible gambling means you can pause anytime you want and do your job first.
6. Same answer with number 5.
7. Budget is important. The only amount that you will gamble. Once it's done, take a rest and just try to move on.

Winning a game while gambling is never a 100% assurance, and as such the worst thing any individual could do is borrow money just to gamble, as it could lead to financial ruin and depth if the outcome doesn't go as predicted. Hence, Gambling should always be approached within one's financial means and caution, so as to avoid great consequences such as an addiction, bankruptcy and stress. Because primarily, one big mistake most gamblers make is seeing gambling as a main source of income, rather than an avenue for entertainment purposes, which is why instead of some people go learning a skill so that they could be meaningful to the society, go take a loan, which most times end them in a miserable life. So in conclusion, borrowing money to gamble is never the best practice.

First remember that you have to play with common sense and responsibility, to make sure that the game is always an entertainment. Knowing this won't make you go to the extreme of borrowing money to gamble. And you have to know the golden rules of gambling. Which are!

Just having only this in mind is not even enough, having understanding that gambling is very risky, unpredicted can help to reason well to make good decisions to gamble with the amount that you can afford to lose. One just need to learn not to be greedy because some decisions some people takes in playing gambling is as a result of greed. For me I think if one can be able to handle greed and understand the risk I gambling,  it will be difficult to make bad decision of gambling with a big amount just to double it.

Gamblers also needs to understand that gamble is not a hustle by seeing it to be hustle you would want to put all your mind in it as the only medium that money can be generated from. Those who takes debt to gamble don't believe their money can be lose, I think they believe double of what has been used to gamble can be gained as return. Taking debt to gamble is the worse gambling habit that one can found himself, because in a gambling lifestyle like this you are so talking about the challenge of addiction too.

[slapper]

You f**king kidding? Basic math shows the house wins. When you're not using your own chips, the odds are considerably worse. Truthfully, the juice isn't worth the squeeze. Borrow, gamble, and become deeper in debt due to interest. Watch your friend, guy; and stop being him

Borrowing to gamble often leads to denial. They believe they can outwit the system. That's crap. A psychological trap, plain and simple. Gambling is entertainment, not retirement. Be prepared to lose and only gamble with what you can afford to lose. In debt? Get help. Talk, get counseling; whatever it takes. People who understand addiction can help you recover. Be honest with yourself and accept you have a problem. Don't let gambling control you, guy. Your strength exceeds that

It will not help you with your goal of earning money because you just borrowed money means "debt" and it will lead you to debt accumulation, if you lose the borrowed money, you will still need to repay that.

Of course, however making gambling as a place to solve problems and then borrowing money to be used as gambling capital is basically clear that it is an idea that will only bring someone to a much worse situation, first of course they will never be able to successfully make a lot of money to overcome financial problems in their lives, and secondly by borrowing money to use gambling then there is a possibility that they will eventually get into debt and thirdly there is a possibility that they will be depressed or depressed when it turns out that it causes more serious problems in their lives.

On the other hand, solving financial problems by using money may be considered, but solving financial problems by making gambling a place to solve these problems I think that is a mindset that is really far from realistic. And obviously there is no other way to be able to overcome the problem, namely by working as you said, which means finding a job that really has a guarantee to provide you with income, and one of the reasons why gambling is really a bad choice to overcome financial problems is because however and until whenever gambling will always be a game that has no certainty and guarantee to always produce wins which in addition there are risks that can be very high.

Do not borrow money from anyone, no matter how much you need it, even if you are in trouble. By simply lending money, you will be like a prisoner in a cell, and the person who gave you the money will be your jailer, and you will be forced to bear a much greater burden than your problem.

Asking for money to gamble is stupid and the gambler who puts himself in this situation is a stupid  loser and does not know anything about gambling.

The consequences of asking for money in gambling are always dire and cause the gambler to drown in debt, and he may be exposed to all kinds of violence and engage in settling accounts, and the matter may reach the family and relatives.

We should remember that gambling should always be approached with common sense and responsibility to ensure it remains a form of entertainment.

If you are joining gambling, just have it in mind that you are gambling for fun, if you think gambling is a place where you can easily make money, then you are already approaching gambling wrongly, that’s why most people do end up doing crazy things just for the sake of gambling. I know you can make money from gambling, but making money shouldn’t be your primary aim of joining gambling if you really don’t want to be addicted to gambling. Most of the people that are addicted to gambling are the once that are just desperate to make money from gambling.

Borrowing money, especially if it will only be used for gambling, will not lead to anything good.

Am not the type that do encourage borrowing money, but if you will take loan, then it should be for something that worths it, not for gambling. It’s totally wrong to take loan just because you want to gamble, if you take loan to gamble and you lose, how are you going to repay back the loan?

[Nheer]

These are quite reasonable points you have given here and we have seen many this kind of post here advising people and teaching them the dangers of not abiding by these rules but people don’t seem to follow them but the importance is to pass the message even if it’s just one person that heed to the advice then it’s worth it. A lot of people are affected by not gambling responsibly and they now see gambling as their only way out borrowing moeny to gamble and chasing lost funds allowing greed to take over their games which is very wrong.

(1) DON'T FORGET IF YOU PLAY YOU CAN ALSO LOSE

(2)FOR YOU, GAMING MUST ONLY BE A HEALTHY FOR ENTERTAINMENT.

(3) DON'T SPEND MORE MONEY THAN YOU CAN AFFORD

(4) DO NOT GAMBLE TO WIN BACK MONEY THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST BY GAMBLING.

(5) DON'T LET GAMBLING INTERFERE WITH YOUR WORK OR WITH YOUR DAILY RESPONSIBILITIES.

(6) REMEMBER THAT GAMBLING IS NOT THE IMPORTANT THING IN YOUR LIFE. DON'T LET GAMBLING AFFECT YOUR FAMILY LIFE OR YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

(7) SET YOURSELF A BUDGET AND DON'T EXCEED IT.

When you start gambling with an amount you can afford to lose that’s where the problem comes from, you will not believe its a game of win and lose and you will not want to lose and whenever you lose you will start chasing after the lost money to recover it back because you used an amount you didn’t want to lose and from there greed begin to step into your game as you will want to win huge amount to recover all lost funds at once which will lead to losing more money and as you lose more money you begin to exceed your budget and even go as far as borrowing money just to gamble and start gambling to payback your debts and even when you win you won’t be able to clear your debts as you will want to double your winning with the amount won and gradually lose it all again and from there you start developing gambling addiction which is very bad because it will interfere with your daily responsibilities.

Gamble responsibly fellas…

If you see gambling as a business opportunity, why not? Sometimes I do borrow money when I see a game that I believe I could won, but I always limit on how much I would only borrow, and I have to make sure that I'll be able to pay it from my income just incase my bet would be wrong.

It is irresponsible and not a wise move no matter how certain or tempting the opportunity maybe you shouldn’t consider borrowing money to gamble, if the opportunity is yours it will come when you have money to spare. Aside that i strongly condemn borrowing money to gamble so pls you should consider changing your mindset.

[Findingnemo]

If you ask me, I would say never borrow money at all for any reason not just for gambling, debt can eat you completely and speaking it from personal experience. Debt is good for the rich because it can help them to avoid taxes but definitely not good for an average joe who is desperately in need for money then the bank or some loan shark offer you money just to trap you than anything else.

Gamble for fun, keep it short so that you can avoid addiction even though you are rich and can afford to lose more.

Now this is where we will move into addiction and chase money from gambling which is dependent on luck, our logic will think we can pay back the money we win through gambling, at one time burning ambition and we instead chase the money we have lost through gambling which ends in a very bad thing.

Using our own money in the norm needs to be limited and not to be impulsive especially using borrowed money that will jeopardize our finances, because it will lead to borrowing habits and that is not a good thing in the financial world even though you have a job and a large enough salary, it will discredit the principle of responsible gambling in us.

[Solosanz]

And you know what? there's already bunch of topics created that pointed out gambling for fun and never borrow to gamble, but the fact there's always a person that will do it.

There's a difference between you and gambling addicts.

Even you borrow money for gambling, you still have jobs and you can make sure that you can pay off from your income. While gambling addict sometimes didn't have any jobs and their income didn't even afford to pay off the debts.

It’s not always borrowing will lead to addiction per se especially on the context of borrowing which the user express. He is just borrowing money which he can afford to pay which is fine as long as he is responsible for his debt.

Borrowing will go wrong if you borrow an amount that exceeds to your incoming money from salary and other income just because you think that your bet will be a sure win. You are already pertaining to actual addiction with your statement while the user example that you is just control borrowing.

[Zigabel]

these points stated buy you OP is very valid and even such that if adhered to it most likely would get the gambler to be a better gambler, borrowing to gamble is a sign of irresponsible gambling which even the casino usually do advise against but then sadly most gamblers both newbies and even the ones seen as the experienced gamblers sometimes fall victims of not keeping to these rules and they just end up keep loosing their funds and sometimes get into trouble due to the fact that they weren't lucky enough to win and eventually get to be able to pay up such debt. no reasonable gambler should even consider borrowing to gamble as something they are supposed to be doin because they don't have any form of assurance of how possible it is that they will be able to win bet they did placed.

No good and responsible gambler is goin to see borrowing to gamble as an ideal thing to do because they are very much aware of the consequences if eventually the get to loose such bet because with gambling, you can never be too sure of what the possible outcome would be so you would be doing everything based on probability which is a clear indication its not ideal to borrow just to be able to gamble

borrowing money for urgent needs may be different. although it will be a problem if we have to try to return the money, but for very urgent events, maybe that's what should be done.
but in the case of gambling, borrowing money just for the sake of gambling is stupid. This has become a bad addiction, causing them to push themselves beyond their limits in gambling.
This is a bad thing. it can harm other people around the gambling addict. Even if you are in a losing situation and no matter how difficult it is, never try to borrow money to gamble. it's a red light.
