I think you can lose money from gambling so no one will knowingly waste money so no one gambles for fun. Everyone gambles to get profit from gambling. Losing a gambling bet doesn't affect a rich person but i have a bad financial crisis after losing. If you take the risk that you can afford to lose you should realize that you have extra money that you can now gamble for fun. Since gambling can make you addicted, it should not be considered a shrine game.

Greed makes a gambler to chase after losses, it's obvious that only few gamblers are gambling for fun, my reasons for believing that there are gamblers that is gambling for fun purpose is because as life is, anything that has negative also have positive, which means as some are gambling to make profits there are some gamblers that are also gambling for fun. But as a gambler who is gambling for profits purpose, you should know when stop no matter the potential winning targets that you have, when you see that it's not working as planned you give up and try again letter.

I am beginning to think that the only time a gambler gambles for fun is only when he gambles with what he can afford to lose. In this case, a gambler has $10,000 as his savings, and he gambles with $1000 down, he or she won't feel sad when they lose it (it means they gambled for fun). But if a gambler who has the same $10,000 gambles for above $5,000, and he loses all of them, the gambler won't be happy about his actions, and it might result in chasing of losses (which means he didn't gamble for fun). It means that both those that say they aren't gambling for fun sometimes gamble for fun, mostly when they risk an amount they can afford to lose. The actual time you gamble for fun is when you risk what you can afford to lose and not when you say you want to gamble for fun. However, a gambler might say he will gamble for fun and still end up not gambling for fun when he starts gambling. One can know a responsible gambler if he starts gambling.

A maximum of 5-10% of income should be used for gambling. And one should never use one's savings for gambling. Savings should be invested only in strong assets that will protect you from inflation. Gambling is not a strong asset, not a business and not a profession in which savings should be invested. Everyone should beware of these things.  Gambling should be used only for fun and always ensure that the fun does not become your financial detriment. We work hard to earn money only to waste that money on gambling cannot be a good hobby

Having fun in gambling in my opinion has a lot of perspectives, and regarding your opinion that no one might deliberately waste their money, in fact no one wastes their money deliberately, they buy the experience of the game, they buy the possibilities that are provided so that some people feel happy about it. But you need to know that some people who are rich can also be poor because of excessive gambling.

Even if we have extra money to gamble and the amount of money is more than what the average person has, but it should be noted that no matter how rich we need to have limits on gambling, because it can eat everything if we don't stop and have financial limits to play gambling, the fun that is sought will be something that wants to be sought from gambling, the orientation of fun turns into a 1000x multiplier possibility, it will be something that ends sadly.

It's a funny topic because OP seems to think that someone who gambles away 10% of his savings will say it was fun and won't feel sad afterwards, but someone who bets half of it (5k) will.
That's not true. That doesn't even make sense. 10% of your savings is a lot of money, just like 10% of your yearly income. You'll be working more than a whole month for free if you lose this. It's huge!

It's not how real life works. You will feel sad, unless the money is dust. For instance if you spend $100 on food every day, gambling away $10 won't hurt you, but if you lose $100 it will, even if you make $5k a month. Losing hard earned money always hurts and you'll never be happy doing it, unless you go ridiculously low with your bets.

Certainly, a lot of individuals wager just for the thrill that games bring and the possibilities they offer. But it is worth noting that unrestricted gambling can take its toll, it's not safe even for the deep-pocketed high-rollers.

More money means more to lose but still financial limits are essential; boundaries keep the fun of gambling from turning into disaster where you would be losing large amounts and then feel regretful later on. Hence it is vital for everyone, irrespective of their riches, to gamble sensibly always and have healthy limits set.

The imposition of limits when gambling is essential not only for managing financial stability, but also for preserving mental and emotional health. Devoid of well-defined boundaries, what are ideally pleasurable pursuits can easily become stressors and generators of anxiety.

Furthermore, recognizing early signs of addiction is important. If a person feels that they must gamble to recreate the same thrill or if they continue gambling even after significant losses have occurred, take note: these are red flags.

It's just a way to hide in the shadows of having fun.

But most of the gamblers aren't just really for fun but for the money. We chase all the money in gambling and it's fun to do that. So, the fun never stops until we ran out of money.

It's a way to reason that we only gamble for fun but I'm sure that all of us gamblers want to make some money whether you're on it for fun or not.

The truth is, whether a gambler is using his spare money or not - deep inside, he wants to win from his bets. Who would not want to go home with winnings, right? So there may be fun that he wants here, but you will be a hypocrite if you would say, you are not after for some winnings. And of course, if you are not worried about the funds you are using, definitely, you will have fun with your games. You are not agitated to win because you owed somebody.

Even these high rollers, they are also after for some winnings. But of course, the impact may be different as they can afford to lose their bets. Whereas, if you are just a small timer, your every penny counts. And so you won't feel the fun if you lost all your bankroll.

[Zigabel]

Some gamblers loose money that they don't find huge and such that they can comfortably loose and be fine but they still don't find it fun loosing such amount even if it's seen like it doesn't really mean much to them. Fun in gambling most times depends on the individual and not the amount they are gambling with, sometimes some gamblers stake heavy and still find if fun gambling meanwhile some other stake very little and still doesn't find it fun irrespective of their financial capabilities at any time, so more likely it's a thing of individuality.

Fun in gambling is and will always have a more dependence on the gambler as the casinos don't have an idea of you are in to make money or to have fun, they only try to provide a platform for everyone to equally play and do what ever they wish to do with the activity.

people addicted to gambling are actually addicted to the risk and the rush it brings.

what is so fun about staking $5? even if you win they don’t feel particularly scared because it’s just $5. tendencies are it’s rich people always wanting higher stakes meanwhile some people only feel happy if they win.

Many people spend their money on drinks, clubbing, parties, holidays, vacations and so many recreational activities I don't remember to mention just for fun. I don't see any way, people can't still gamble in the name of having fun too. If someone tells me he is gambling for fun, i won't doubt such a person, ill just observe to find out if it is true. There is a way they respond to their feelings when they win and when they lose. If you see someone who is really after money in gambling you will see the difference. There is so much excitement in their heart when they win which will be very obvious.

I'm on you side here  and can tell even more. Part of folk can not even  be in the being without adrenaline in their blood resulted from gambling,  Yet, unknowing that, they rationalize their gambling addiction by pretending a fun and proceed without concern over allocated bankroll hereby  bringing themselves  (very often) to the very  verge of financial failure.

Winning a small amount obviously won't change anything unless it's just a matter of momentary pleasure, but I also find it surprising that there are people who continue to place such large bets every day even though it may only be a matter of seeking momentary pleasure for them. Because for rich people maybe betting that big is not something they have to think about every day so it really won't have a big influence when someone tells rich people about their winnings with that much capital.

What matters is what a person does and not what he says. I think that there are no people who started playing from the very beginning for profit, and not for entertainment. All the most interesting things happen when a person begins to win or, more importantly, lose. Then the person begins to use money that he cannot afford to lose.
I absolutely agree with you that a responsible player can be recognized when he begins to play, and not when he speaks. A responsible player knows how to control his emotions

Which one of those did you partake in?

There is no joining in and I do not participate in any methods, if I gamble, I remain true to myself to decide the money I use in gambling, I don't gamble with $1000 or $5000, the money I use in the gambling arena is side money, I mean the money I earn doesn't have any point, tips.

For this reason, each of us gambles differently, be it for fun, entertainment or other things, by gambling with tips, I don't have to regret it when I lose the game, meaning I have my own tricks to have fun or be sad in gambling, different from what you said, those who gamble manage their finances and have a lot of capital and hope to be successful in gambling.

We can't deny that. All of us want to play entirely for the money. No one wants to just have fun and lose their money.

We all want to get that money and win. Someone who gambles and wins will be more than happy to take the money and will admit that he's there to enjoy the money instead of the game.

And if losing comes, we all just gonna say that we're in there to have fun.

Every gambler at least knows that gambling is full of risks. In essence, it is important for us to think clearly and gamble responsibly when we want to play. It's best if we want to gamble, it would be better to allocate just enough of your budget to play there, don't overdo it. Play calmly, don't be too hasty, be a little patient, sometimes by being patient we will get the opportunities we want, of course we will win.

Play calmly, don't be too hasty, be a little patient, sometimes by being patient we will get the opportunities we want, of course we will win.

We all win eventually, with patience or not. The style of play is important, but the luck factor is much more important, without luck, there are no nice big wins. And those big wins sometimes come because we had enough courage to bet a little more than usual...

Gambling is risky because there are no guarantees, regardless of the style of play and seemingly good strategy we can still lose. That's why we shouldn't gamble with money that we can't afford to lose... Nothing good comes out of that path, the more someone sinks, the more complicated the situation will be. I can only repeat what we have written many times on this forum, gambling is only fun if we can afford that fun without consequences for anything else.

[Frankolala]

If a gambler says that he wants to gamble for fun and end up using more than the amount of money  that he can afford to lose in gambling, it means that he has no self control over his gambling activities and that was why he was unable to stop when at the right time.

This is why we should be able to control our emotions and be disciplined when gambling so that whatever we say, we stick to it and not do the opposite when losing. Losing money that is meant for other important needs should be avoided so that we don't regret our actions and put the blame on gambling instead of learning from our mistakes.

The fun about gambling is winning and we all are aiming for wins whether we claim we are gambling for fun or for the money. The most important thing we should take note of is that we should gamble with what we can afford to lose so if we eventually lose, we will not still feel it that much.

So, if any gambler becomes too excited with the fun he is getting, the wins or becomes so desperate to win at all cost, he should also be prepared for the consequences that comes with gambling irresponsibly and out of control. Most gamblers are suffering today because they wanted to eat their cakes and still have them, too bad they learnt the hard way.
