Never borrow money to be able to gamble

[Zadicar]

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

This has always been the golden rule on which you shouldn't really be that making use of an amount on which you cant really be able to afford on losing and this would be something
that would be keeping up in mind because if you do find yourself having that kind of principle then you would really be having such control on which this is something that you would really be needing
up to consider all the time. Dont make yourself that getting delusional that you could make money with gambling on sure manner, plus its something that been created for the sake of
of entertainment and not for the sake of making some income because on the moment you do find yourself having those intents then it would be surely bringing up that huge trouble.

Op, when someone finds himself in a situation where he/she borrows money to gamble, the person has already gotten addicted to it. There's a says that gambling is not for everyone, though the reason why some people borrow money to gamble, for example, let's say in sports bet, some people will have sure odds which they think if they stake money, they will win. Many people did not understand that there's no guarantee in gambling, you can even bet that all the players should wear boots, I believe one of the players may come without his boots. Just kidding.  But gambling is very bad, if any newbie gives it a try 3 times and loses, I don't think they should continue wasting their money because that is the only way they can be addicted to it, and they will end up borrowing money when they are out of cash.

However, this happened to me the year I was gambling, that year was not easy for me. I was gambling with the money a friend of mine asked me to keep for him, I used to play sports betting and whenever I had sure odds, I thought I could make some profit with the money I gambled with, which I ended up losing everything. We should always believe that gambling is meant for fun, not to think that we are to be a wealthy person through gambling. Let's gamble with the money we can afford to lose, don't put your family into any trouble because of gambling. I have learned my lesson and I gave up on gambling.

You have given up gambling forever, do I understand correctly? I also had various situations, but what I can say about myself is that I have never played with borrowed money. For me, this is a prohibition that is simply built into my character, I simply cannot do this, because my brain blocks these actions due to the fact that I could lose my relationship with those people who are dear to me. To play with their money means not to respect them, but at the same time I understand that you had a very great desire to play and you could not do anything about it, unfortunately this happens to some of us. The main thing here is to forgive yourself for this and conclude that this will not happen again and it is not at all necessary to completely prohibit yourself from gambling. For me it would be a challenge to test myself and show that I really won’t break, no matter how self-confident it may sound.

[nara1892]

In fact there is no prohibition at all to borrow money because it is a natural action or decision that is often done by everyone and there are also quite a lot of services that are loan providers, but it is a fact that the purpose of the loan is to help anyone who is in distress, or who needs money urgently when they are experiencing unexpected problems such as medical expenses or other things, meaning that loans are only intended when you have no other way to solve the problem other than by borrowing money from other people or services.

And as we know in a healthy mindset and rational point of view gambling is nothing more than an ordinary game that requires every gambler to put money to bet without any certainty and guarantee, meaning that this is not an activity that should be prioritized, and the conclusion is clear that borrowing money for something that is not important is an unwise decision, especially if the funds are used to gamble which has absolutely no certainty of being able to get a win and added to the possibility of risks that cannot be avoided completely.

It'll be unclear to conclude what he meant by concluding  or giving up on gambling. You know it's quite difficult to achieve due to the challenging needs to gamble on daily or weekly basis. Borrowing money to gamble is a dreadful mistake and no player is meant to engage into such a lifestyle. The worse aspect of this type of mistake is the unending continuous urge to always borrow to gamble. Going for loan means no money in the bankroll.

Hence, if the borrowed money gets exhausted the gambler will be in very worse emotional condition. His thoughts will be fast with no delays he'd be making countless mistakes due to unhealthy decisions. Additionally, the uncertainty of gambling, contributes to the difficulty of making enough profits to cover for the debts. Doing this will be a big blunder which can be caused by fatigue. Excessive gambling has impacts on the emotional strength of a player such that he gets tired along the line and his decisions would be fueled by pressure.

In fact, these tips and rules written by the OP in capital letters should not be ignored. This is written from the vast experience of those who tried to borrow money for the game. At first glance, it seems that borrowing money to play is harmless, but it is not. This is just playing with fire that no one needs to do. Probably at a younger age I could do this, but now I will never lend money for a game because I know how it works. Probably this is intended for those who do not understand many things and do not attach much importance to it, but there have already been thousands of such clever people who tried to take other people’s money for the game and manage it as their own, now they have to give it back not only for months, but also for years. I want to say only one thing, just play with your own money, this is the most important advice of all that the OP mentioned and I am glad that such topics are being created on our forum. Perhaps this will save a few players.

Lol most people are fond of that , borrowing money to gamble, which is very wrong. Because at first what lead you to have the thought of borrowing money to gamble,it may be due the fact that you have loss yours when gambling. So are sure are you that you ain't going to lose the money you borrowed. Because is easier to lose what you have and move on with it than to lose someone else's money. Because at first you won't be able to move on expecially when the money you borrowed is way higher than the one you are expecting from your salary .so such act may endup affecting one negatively so to avoid falling In such situation is better not to borrow and gamble with what you have , not just what you have what you can actually afford to lose.

I personally know players who beg for money, but I understand that if he loses, he will have nothing to give me. Just recently, I lent money to one player because I have known him for a long time and tried to help him out in a difficult situation, but it was a mistake. We should never lend money, even to those we know well or to friends, this is the best way to become enemies, so there will definitely come a time when he will not be able to give this money to us and will tell all sorts of nonsense just to stall for time. I understand this very well now and recommend that others think about it.

Well I actually get your point, the fact that's Someone you know will give he or she upper hand not to pay back on time or not paying at all . At first how can one bet with money lend to he or she,  when fully know that he or she may definitely endup losing that money. Because we all know that gambling is about either win or lose so is two ways. And you using money lend to you to take care of some serious situation shows that you ain't ready to grow at all. One thing we must know is that , it doesn't mean that gambling the one that took ones money that, that same gambling will be the way of getting it back .

Most time is better to leave the loss and learn from your mistakes than , chase after it or even  worse borrowing money to get back what you have lose in your gambling section back.

We can borrow money for our own business or we can borrow money to meet our needs but for gambling or trading related activities we certainly cannot borrow money. You gambled by borrowing money and you now realize that decision was definitely the wrong decision for you. After your experience this decision seems wrong to you but now newbies especially those who decide to gamble with loan money should be careful in advance so that they don't gamble with loan money. You may be able to solve the financial problems you had after gambling with loan money but there are many people who may still gamble with loan money but when they gamble with loan money they will suffer but they are financially very  will be in trouble. A gambler should always gamble with the amount of money he has no problem losing.

Money borrowed for gambling can be successful or unsuccessful depending on the amount borrow and he nature of the gambler. There are people who can possibly have two to three wins in a week out of 4 or 5 betting days. And if you check out most of those persons are in profits in gambling. They are specializing in reducing the risk by choosing some few games with less odd and then stake it with a large sum of money. What am saying here is that anyone using this strategy of gambling then it is possible that if the person borrows some good amount of money there is an assurance that he would make good profit and pay back the loan on time.

Borrowing money is suicide that's why never ever consider such thing or action. You do know that if it keeps on piling up then you would be just that basically putting up yourself on a deep debt on which this is something a typical scenario or condition that you would be putting yourself on. If you would really be that careless in regards into the actions that you are making then expect for the negative things that will really be happening into you specially if we do speak about financial condition on which it is primarily be mainly be affected by too much gambling involvement or activity.

Borrow money to bet is a pretty high-risky act and can be equated with financial suicide: stop and think if you are considering borrowing money to gamble. Debt that continues to build up will dig you into a deep hole of financial difficulty from which escape is not easy. The often irrational decision of borrowing money with the hope that it will translate into more winnings at gambling typically compounds an already bad situation, making it worse, not better.

When you cannot manage your finances well, particularly in instances of gambling, the ramifications are profound. Involvement in excessive gambling without control can deplete your savings, destabilizing your financial ground, and wreak havoc on your mental well-being as well as personal relationships. Hence it is of utmost importance to exercise prudence and responsibility in money management. Never risk money that you are not prepared to lose, especially if you use borrowed money. Because this will only be a disaster for you.

IMHO, the gambler will eventually realize that the care is there from the true friend that suggests him to quit and doesn't tolerate his addiction.

He may think as much as he can that he's not getting help and they're not real friends. But as we have said, real friends will never tolerate their friends for their bad actions.

And those actions are going to put them into a bad situation that they may have hard time of getting out.

Yes, awareness will definitely come after someone experiences feelings that are unfair to themselves, even though behind all that there must be a reason why other people have carried out this behavior towards the gambler, with the aim of making the gambler immediately aware and able to stop being addicted to gambling.
However, if the gambler can restrain and control his emotions well then the friendship will be fine, but if the gambler has a tough character and is easily emotional, the friendship will definitely be strained.

Well most gamblers will certainly say this thought of yours is actually a mirage that clouds most gamblers that do take money for the purpose of gambling although their is no doubt that a certain percentage of what you are saying might be truthful but common man how hard is it to experience one bad turn and lose all your money especially with the context of you using a very huge amount to gamble just to get an increased profits for the payback of the loan. Gambling is risky so is when you use huge amount although you say the risk is reduce because of the number of games selected and the odds selection too but even at that the smallest and easier odd one would select in gambling can still result to a loss.

[hyudien]

Gambling is not bad if they can do it with good self-control, but many people who gamble cannot control themselves well, which makes them addicted to gambling which leads them to gamble without looking at their financial side. Those who are addicted can of course do things that have big risks that can harm themselves and even other people, remembering that people who are addicted to gambling will usually have a more stubborn nature so they will only focus on the things they want, and by becoming addicted to it they just want to keep betting until they get to the desired point.
It's not natural and they shouldn't bet too big or beyond their financial means, because that will only make things more difficult for them, but the addiction that has stuck is difficult to get rid of so they won't be able to stop easily even though they have experienced many losses in gambling. with the belief that they can win or are more confident that they can win, which can encourage them to continue gambling and can even borrow money to gamble when their finances run out or go bankrupt.

If one can't control himself in gambling, he will lose. Because in gambling no one cannot survive without self-control. When a gambler loses, it is a natural desire to recover his lost money. But when that recovery effort goes beyond limitation, it is no longer normal. Then the negative effects of gambling began to appear quickly. The addicted gambler never holds back to manage his gambling. If necessary, he borrows money and continues his gambling until the money is gone. Later, when he loses the money he borrowed, he gets a glimpse of his addiction. But those who cannot calm down then do not dare to lose their last wealth. If you are addicted to gambling, you have to lose from it, but the life of those who gamble by loan money their life becomes miserable very quickly.

It's true, self-control plays an important role in gambling. with those who experience big losses, of course it is because they do not have good self-control so they take actions that they should not, such as forcing themselves to continue gambling even though their money has run out. with those who don't have self-control, of course when they lose, of course there is a desire to be able to reverse the situation or want to recover the losses that have occurred, and if they no longer have money then they can borrow money to gamble again, with other reasons of course not maybe they borrow money for the reason of gambling that won't allow other people to lend them money.
It's true what you said, gamblers who are addicted of course will not be able to stop themselves from gambling, because the strong urge makes them want to continue gambling and they can ignore the risks because the desire to get a bigger win makes them unable to. refrain from gambling and this is where they are said to not have good self-control. However, what is clear is that taking out a loan to return to gambling is the wrong action, because it will only get us into trouble, what's more, there is no definite guarantee in gambling about winnings that can be obtained.

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

Probably one of the most confusing if not misinformed because it's not "you can also lose", it's "guaranteed that you're going to lose", gambling isn't something that you can rely upon when it comes to making money, that's why it's for entertainment purposes only, you don't want to be gambling to make money to provide food on the table, you should gamble for fun and that's why it shouldn't be misconstrued that the losing part isn't that big of a deal because it is a big deal and it's not really something that we can ever take for granted.

[Negotiation]

For too many reasons it is foolish to borrow money to gamble. I don’t like borrow money and even when I do, I can’t risk it because you may try to be smart to double it and you end up giving the money to the casino like it’s charity and you will still have to pay up for money you never used to achieve anything meaningful. Gambling should be done out of your pocket and an amount you can afford to lose.

When it comes to gambling some people are wise enough not to spend too much money on it but some people don’t think about that, gambling is not bad to play but you have to be capable of playing it or you have the money to play it, I have seen many people who gamble but they don’t have work, and that is why you will see many of them got bullied on the public by calling them thieves, gambling can lead someone life to steal but that is also the wish of those who don’t want to work but want to have the money to gamble, many married men today are attracted to gambling and when it comes to the responsibility of the family they will not have the money all the name of gambling.

Taking risks is part of human life because no matter how it is you have to take risks in something you believe to make it but not in gambling ways, gambling pays but not for everyone and no matter how some people play gamble they can not get what they want because everyone has where he or she is destined to make money, I did not say gambling is not good, it is very good but not for people that don’t have money and still want to gamble by force.

Yes gambling is not bad to play. The issue starts from the addiction. Most players are addicted and don’t stop till they’ve lost a lot. While taking risk it’s usual and it’s just one of them, there’s a thing as calculated risk. No one should gamble too large than what they can or an amount that will make them go bankrupt or maybe their life savings. It doesn’t matter how sure you are that you will win because those who have lost to gambling expected to win too.

Gambling is an interesting addiction because you have to be completely broke to continue the high you're getting. When starting gambling you probably have some expendable assets to bet on. Gambling is bad for gamblers who cannot control themselves to gamble. Responsible gamblers can be seen to be in control so that there are no ill effects of gambling. There is no exact guarantee of winning here so it is better not to take risks.

Of course, or maybe I will help explain simply that gambling is a probability activity or "possible" activity that will lead a gambler to one of two possibilities at the end of the session, namely between winning or losing, and it is a fact that winning is nothing more than just opportunity while defeat is a certainty, so of course what we have to pay more attention to here is that we have to look first in terms of the possible consequences of the risk, because in gambling, winning is nothing more than just a chance and to realize this opportunity you have to really be in it. temporary lucky situation, as we know, luck always cannot be known when it will come.

This means that this is the reason why we are better off first preparing ourselves to lose rather than focusing too much on winning, because it is not easy to always be in a lucky situation, and this is also the reason why it is more recommended to make gambling an entertainment activity because with this kind of mindset then it is less likely for you to take various actions that tend to be excessive.

The risk of losing the borrowed money is high, and the obligation to repay that debt remains, creating a vicious cycle of financial strain.

Borrowing money for gambling is never justified and should be avoided at all costs, it only leads to a bigger hole. Instead, any borrowed funds should be directed towards meaningful and productive purposes that genuinely add value to our lives.

Of course, the borrower doesn't know whether we have the money or not, but it is clear that the party who lent the money will definitely want the money to be returned to the individual, especially if they borrow it from an official company such as a bank, of course there will be other dangerous risks when they don't. can pay off the debt he has incurred. Maybe the bank could confiscate the property owned by the borrower. because of course the bank will not let them continue to relax, of course they have to pay off the debt they have incurred. by them borrowing money to gamble is just their way of ruining their lives. because even gambling does not provide a guarantee that they will definitely win to help their finances.

Even borrowing money not for gambling can ruin someone's life. If you really want to borrow money, you must first consider whether we can pay it off or not, because if not, there will of course be a big risk that could destroy us in the future. What you say is correct, loan funds must be used for meaningful and productive things that are truly positive and will be profitable for the future.

It is a pity that the governments of countries do not prohibit people suffering from severe gambling addiction from taking out loans. I hope that in the future they will create a database of those who are not trustworthy in paying off debts.
And I hope that banks will be much stricter about the purpose of the loan, because problem gamblers should never play with borrowed funds.

But unfortunately, very often many shadow banks see such people as an opportunity to earn money, and lend them money at huge interest rates, which starts a chain reaction that increases debt day by day.

Money borrowing is like dancing with Satan. One mistake spells disaster. To be honest, banks don't care about you. Your interest payments sustain these enterprises. You're risking more than a few bucks when you borrow, especially for gaming. You're risking everything financially. All loans are potential disasters disguised as aid. Consider that if you can't pay it back, you risk bad credit, collection harassment, and bankruptcy. Is borrowing ever wise? You can, but be wise. You must have a sound repayment plan before taking out a loan. If your repayment method rely on anything uncertain, like winning large at the casino, you're doomed
