Can someone take gambling as a source of income to he/she life?

[panjul07]

Yes someone can take gambling as a source of income for their life but it is taken by small number of gamblers only and for specific gambling only.
Mostly for pvp poker and sports betting, and they must be professional on that games so they can make money for a living.
For other games (luck based games) there will be no one who can make a living from these games because the luck is the main factor to win.
There are some lucky people whose life changed a lot from gambling (such as lottery winner) but I do not consider it as taking gambling as source of income.

Not everyone can make gambling a place that can make a lot of money. Maybe only the developers and teams that build gambling places can make the platform they develop a source of wealth. We as users of gambling places have no definite guarantee that gambling places can provide results that can buy all the daily necessities of life. We can make a gambling place that is used for fun and if luck is on our side then we can make extra money with a very small level of success, it is even very impossible to win every day and can make money from a gambling place.

No matter the situation someone is going through in life, the person should not think of gambling as a source of income. People that take gambling as a source of income are most likely going to regret it later. Successful gamblers are the gamblers that make money from real business and not from gambling.

Totally agree. The only successful gamblers for me are the casino owners, traders as gambling will only take money from us not unless we are part of that one in a million lucky winner who won millions or even billions from it that it changed our lives in an instant. Gambling is unstable so why are we making it as a source of income right? We need to find a stable job or acquire special skills to make good source of money  because in gambling luck is super elusive.

I said let me express my feelings towards this to forum gambling discussion, if their are people who are living in this kind of lifestyle.

yeah, believe it or not, there are people who made gambling as a source of income.

And what will be your opinion towards the people living in this kind of lifestyle everyday of their life's?

I think it is a foolish and extremely risky way of lifestyle, gambling is unpredictable and earning money from it is not always guaranteed, and if they rely on it to make money they will inevitably experience financial challenges.

[ChiBitCTy]

I mean technically there are people whom can make a living selling farts in a jar ( this is literally something that some people do), so yeah sure, anyone can make a living from relatively anything, but that of course does not guarantee any level of success, or you being able to make that living.  There are absolutely professional gamble whom make their living my gambling.  However, most people don't have what it takes and even professional gambler can really struggle at times.

I don't think most people are cut out for it.

I agree with you 100%, many don't understand this because there cases like this in my place, I know most of our rich people in my society are involved in gambling which surprises me on how they are winning big big, sometimes I assumed the poor are not been lucky because the game is not favouring them but I final understand with your explanation because even though the lost no one will noticed because they are rich.


so my question do rich people also lost more money than their winnings as it happened to poor people too?

Truth be told that, there are people who gamble professionally and take gambling as their full source of living and o haven’t seen them making any regrets yet but rather living their best lives.
Don’t get me wrong as I’m not actually encouraging gambling but what I’m saying is that, we shouldn’t make it seem like, there aren’t people who are making it through gambling and what matters is that, the gambler is doing the right thing and knows when to stop and when to keep gambling.

I’m not countering you boss but I’m not just on the opinion that, there are actually professional gamblers who make reasonable living out of gambling with gambling as their major source of income.

[|MINER|]

You are suffering in your life with various problem but it doesn't mean that you don't have any other options. I don't think it's a wise decision to make gambling as this source of income because this is one kind of giving your lifehood living on luck. That's totally a bad idea. Choose and sustainable source for living life don't bring more problem in your life by making gambling for your income.

but only a few gamblers are able to become professional players in games that rely on strategy such as poker or cards, and even though they can rely on their skills and experience in gambling, it is still too risky because it could be that other people are smarter than them and it can make them lose a lot of money in gambling. so it is better for a person to find another job other than gambling to be able to get money and not rely on gambling completely because it is risky.

Fact, anyone who chooses gambling as a source of income will live to regret someday because there is this mentality that is attached to gambling in the sense that when you are lucky to win it looks like the winning is gonna keep coming every day and by so doing, addiction begins and you can't do without gambling and will literally use money from other sources to fund your gambling which is to say that gambling can never or should never stand as a source of income.

People who succeed more in gambling are literally people that doesn't take it serious if they lose or win and these set of people have other jobs and businesses they do that gives them huge money so they just see gambling as part of having fun and in the process most of them even record huge wins because they don't take to many risks and they play according to how they can endure in a case of losses.

but their is something I noticed from those people who take gambling as their source of income, they're always restless and inpatient they want to always be on the process of betting and looking forward to the highest amount that they have in mind. But even if they have business does it mean that they should take the gambling serious more than their own personal business no, instead they loses and with the little money they should use and add up with their own personal business they'll sacrifice to the casino gambling. That's an bad idea ever.

I won't argue, it is a fact about some of the risks that would occur if only relying on gambling as the main source to make money.
Because there will indeed be many problems such as addiction that will not be contained, because some people will only get carried away in uncertain games and continue to play despite experiencing many defeats.

But some professional gambling players like professional poker players Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu, and Fedor Holz are making a lot of money from poker games. In any gambling or game there will be those who dedicate their lives to gambling, but indeed it will be very risky.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Ivey
https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Negreanu
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedor_Holz

Those who have been in the gambling world for quite a long time, have their own strategies, but also still range to be addicted and other problems. the most important thing is to know the limits and where you need to stop.

but they don't see it like completely risky lifestyle they do see it, as if they're doing something beneficial because they're trying their lucks and you know anything concerning luck might turnover to something big tomorrow. Some people do sleep at the gambling shop just for them to earn the money before going back home, that means they've completely chosen gambling as their work and their source of a living. I know some people have become millionaire today with gambling but it doesn't happen in one day, so that's why most of those people who takes gambling as their source of income thinks that one day it'll surely get to their turn so they keep on taking it as their lifestyles. Then at the end it's becomes addicted.

[Pandu Geddon]

I was gambling today online since their is strike no work, so decided to take all my day to place a bet and this thought comes to my mind. That is it how the jobless men do gamble all day with the little money they've, because this is insane to me but to those people who gamble as the means of their income it's terrible. I rememberd a friend of mine back in the days in school all he does was to gamble all day not going to class, and the gambling favors him alot any time he comes to the hostels he do comes back with a big bag of foods. But that was back then his parents was sending him money, but right now with the economy situation in some countries someone will haven a little money meanwhile he/she have gone alot stress to get the money and he/she will tries to increase the money by gambling. Everyday he/she continues like this hmmm it's bad.

I said let me express my feelings towards this to forum gambling discussion, if their are people who are living in this kind of lifestyle. And what will be your opinion towards the people living in this kind of lifestyle everyday of their life's?

there is nothing wrong with gambling every day. as long as you have finances that will not be disturbed and your needs are met. It would be strange if they were having difficulty just eating, but instead, they risked their money to gamble. if you win you can eat deliciously. but if you lose then you will be hungry, I'm not sure that can be done.

gambling is not the right way to make it a source of income. Even though some people do it, it's not for everyone to do. Everyone's luck will be different. and if you lose then there will be no income.
look for a better income until you find out that gambling is fun even if you lose. not because of how much money you make from gambling.

That's an bad idea ever.

I can't even imagine anyone taking gambling as a source of income because it means that you depends on it to earn a living and also provide other life obligations which is impossible because even if you win most of the time, you can't win every day so something that we should take as a source of income is what we are certain that at the end of the day we are sure to get it and on a regular basis so depending on gambling is as well as putting your self under probability always because gambling is a clear game of probability since winning is not assured all the time.

Any one who has other jobs and still focuses more on gambling instead of their other jobs is completely putting their jobs and business in jeopardy especially if you are into business because a time will come when you will exhaust all your business money on gambling  which will be disastrous to you because you have crashed the source in which you use in funding your gambling and at the same time your source of livelihood.

[GideonGono]

What do you think would happen if that person lose? how would he/she recover if it is their only source of income?
Also how much would their capital be in order to survive? how would they cover their daily expenses?
If they would only rely on gambling it would be impossible to survive, just think about the cost of living even if they are living in a cheap place or country surely they would run out of money.

Any person living a normal life will not have the most positive opinion about such people (described by you). If a person’s entire life is limited to gambling, then this is already a sign of a clinical case and this patient needs treatment. Many are deceived by the apparent ease of access to money in gambling.

"Can someone take gambling as a source of income to he/she life?" - if someone wants to perceive gambling as a source of their income, then so be it. Perception is an absolutely abstract thing.

[Sakanwa]

Since gambling is a something you cannot manipulate the result to be favoring you, you don't need to take gambling as your source of income, and even though you see yourself in the dream about to take gambling as source of income rebuke it and stay away from anything that will make you to take gambling as a source of income.

Many people has loss everything they have on gambling, because they take gambling as source of income which is a wrong decision that can make someone useless in the society, no matter how educated you are in the society because people hate those people that allow gambling to finish their career.

Nothing will make me to take gambling as source of income, because I know that is not everyday winning no matter how experience you are in gambling.

and it's something that triggers this set of people that takes gambling as their source of income. It wasn't something they just started all of a sudden something cost it, and that might be the testimonies of their friends who have tried to succeed with gambling. Not knowing that you don't have to take it as your source of income. So for you, you don't see it like everyday winning but for them they do see it that way. And will all know that gambling is a game of luck not a personal or fixed game that you must win and it'll never come to their mind, that it's all about lucky winner.

Considering gambling as a source of income is definitely a wrong decision. Based on your situation that boy may earn a lot of income from gambling which is different than usual. His life style will be different because winning in gambling can make a lot of money. But the continuity of that victory cannot be kept. One who is gambling must not only win but also lose. Moreover, one of his biggest mistakes is that he is using the time he needs to study in a different way that will have a big impact on his personal life. Moreover, the fate of gamblers who become addicted at a young age is definitely uncertain. If gambling is considered as a center of entertainment and not as a money-making scheme, it will not have any negative impact on personal life.

[Forsyth Jones]

I see gambling more as entertainment and dopamine satisfaction than as extra income or investment. Gambling is accessible to anyone, but only those who can afford to lose, after many attempts and losses are able to win more than they lose at the game. These are games that require more of the player's skills and knowledge than those based on luck.

[adpinbr]

Taking gambling as a handwork or gambling every day of your life. It’s just a problem that you may not be able to solve for yourself. How would you be gambling every day taking the money they give to you or your parents to gamble? Yes, gambling is good but the only thing I will advise everyone is to gamble wisely, the most sweetest gambling is when you are gambling with caution and gambling what to gamble the kind of game you have predicted and ask some question because you made definitely make a lot of mistake and that mistake we cost you a lot of lost in your gambling strategies
