Anyone here brave enough to borrow money for gambling to fulfill their dreams?

[Antotena]

If your plan is to fulfill all your dreams by gambling then I suggest you at least get out of that plan. You have to think of alternatives for managing your family and fulfilling your dreams. Gamblers decide to gamble when they have a certain amount of income and a portion of that income they spend on gambling will not have a negative economic impact on them. But if the gambler here thinks that by gambling he will fulfill all his dreams then I think he will not succeed in his aim. The future of gambling is uncertain, no matter how much you gamble using your skills, you cannot be sure that you will earn this amount of money at the end of a month of regular gambling. So first find a source of income and then try gambling alongside it will be the right decision for you.

How many people has gamble all their life and fulfill there dreams, it's juts few of them and when a few win from a population, that's to tell you that's not a green flag, it's a red flag. You can't achieve your dream through gambling but you can be lucky you know I can't dispute that but the luck isn't something you can even expect, it happen randomly and you might not really be the best person to get that luck, it's better you focus on your other goals that will help you realize that dream.

No person in any obligation borrows money because they want to gamble, you can't make money through that as most of the time you will be under pressure with too much expectations, losing will not be on your mind buy winning all the time. You might be reluctant on not accepting defeat. These things makes gambling hard for you to even win any game, there wouldn't be anything entertaining about gambling if you borrow money to do it.

I am just having this thought: if we truly trust our gambling skills, then just like starting a business, we take risks because we believe we’ll succeed in the future. So, what if we’ve proven our strategy works, but we’re only betting small amounts and missing out on bigger opportunities? We might consider borrowing money to fast-track our success. Has anyone ever done that?

Why would I do something like that when I know the outcome of every bet is based on luck? This is a very bad way to fuel one’s habit and thinking that risking more than you can afford to lose can make you quick money. One should always look at the instant of “if not” or “had I know” when planning to take such big risk that the repercussions are always unbearable for one.

It is better you stick to your small wins and when the luck continue to shine on you, you’ll get an even more positive outcome in your bet and won’t feel the notion of not to try again since you’re only losing what you can afford to lose. Gambling is not what you should rush into for big profits, it takes time in many cases since its base on luck and it can only find you ones in a while in most cases.

Many people can gain good experience in gambling and their knowledge and skills can improve. It doesn't matter how much knowledgeable and skilled a person, a gambler can never be sure whether he will win or lose. Where there is no such certainty, if someone borrows money to gamble, it will definitely not be acceptable. But if someone thinks that he wants to spend some money on gambling and taking risks, then it is a logical decision. Gambling with borrowed money can create more disasters as a result of loss. It is appropriate to use as much money as possible to lose in gambling, otherwise the gambler is more likely to get into financial difficulties. It may happen that a gambler has money but at that time due to temporary difficulties he is not able to gamble or he has a plan for a specific bet but at that moment he has lack of money. Considering that, a gambler can borrow, but he must take the decision to repay that quickly.

If you succeed then you don't need to borrow is the best answer.    You can multiply your own success, if anything the borrowing of money introduces the possibility of disaster where as before all you could lose was the game and the simple amount of cash you brought to the table that day or week.

I would always advise simplicity and keep it fun, don't burden yourself.   This all should be a pleasant past time not russian roulette all or nothing stress inducing tortuous outcomes, isnt life with enough negatives already.  Stay away from the borrowed money stay your own master always while you can chose to do so.

So we call that being brave or stupid. Gambling is a game of luck so i don't see the reason why I would want to borrow money, pay back with interest all in the name of gambling. There's no much skill when it comes to gambling all that depends is how lucky you get when you press that button and enter a round. Borrowing money to gamble is totally wrong and there's no guarantee that you will get the money back. It's better to gamble only with what you can afford if risk..

I myself think if this is really done then I will consider it stupid, although there is a side of courage that can be seen in this action but there is nothing to be proud of with that courage. My friend who is in debt because of his gambling addiction is now in a depressed condition because the borrower has often come to his house to ask for accountability for his actions and this has even made all his family have to bear the shame.

As it should be, we should indeed bet with what we can afford, but this will not be done for those who gamble with a mindset or goal of seeking profit in gambling, while as you said, profit or victory in this case depends on luck alone and that is not wrong.

At first one has to reason twice before going to borrow money knowing too well that gambling doesn't move the way we think it does, gambling not just game of luck but gambling itself if not properly followed one can be entirely being destroyed for not applying wisdom while gambling. Gambling they said is a game of fun, and whatever one is doing that doesn't go in accordance with fun that is attached to it is entirely going against it, most people actually uses it as a milking zone but it doesn't work that because the earning are always being subjected to probabilities.

No one knows when luck will be on our side, now for example we bet and are lucky to win then we still think there is a win that can be obtained again if we gamble, even though we have previously managed to win but it does not mean that it will happen again with the same thing when we gamble again, what needs to be known is that the chance of losing is greater than the chance of winning so it is better when you have managed to win then go with the win and enjoy it.

People who dare to take loans to gamble I think it will only make themselves more difficult, although it is possible that luck will happen to those who gamble with borrowed money but it is not certain and not necessarily everything will be better in the future. Protecting yourself from a problem depends on how we respond to it.

[tusandii]

It is better to use small money but our own money than to use large money but we have to bear the risk of losing not to mention the large loan interest will be even more burdensome and we have the ambition to "have to" win gambling with the borrowed money even though gambling is an uncertain game even though sometimes you are lucky about your predictions but not always your predictions are right.

I remember something when my friend entrusted money to me, for some reason at that time I wanted to gamble and use the money and hoped to win the gambling with my predictions but it turned out that my friend's money ran out and finally I had to collect money to replace the money with that incident I realized that using borrowed money makes us uneasy.

This is clearly a stupid thing to do without common sense. Because borrowing money to bet or gamble is a big mistake that has the potential to make the borrower feel depressed or frustrated if it does not match expectations, because gambling is an uncertain victory, even an expert still experiences defeat because the victory obtained is just luck.

And many people are in debt with online loans because of their convenience and they borrow just to chase losses or feel unacceptable with defeat and after there is no solution then borrowing is the next step, and I see them now have nothing because they have lost everything to gamble and also to pay their debts and even many end up in divorce. And it is very important for us when gambling to play in a conscious state because playing in a conscious state can make it easier for us to control ourselves and also gamble only using money that we can afford to lose and also gamble just for fun using a few dollars that sometimes bring luck.

Brave? You should write 'foolish'. I just read other post in the same board about a gambler who borrowed money to gamble, he lost the bet; unable to replay the creditors he took his own life.

Edit: changed 'stupid' to 'foolish', I believe it fits better.

Stupid? I can agree if the full statement is borrowing money without any responsibility is stupid, but if someone is responsible enough to borrow money no matter what is the purpose (including gambling), I'll not call it as stupid.
The story you have just read in the other thread is simply example of irresponsible gambler, it cant be used to generalize all people who borrow money to gamble will be like him.
Coming to gambling skills, it does exist but it is limited to sports betting and poker only where skilled gamblers can boost their luck by using their skills to win.

First of all borrowing money to gamble should not be seen or consider as been brave because we all know how gambling can be most times but it can only be called or seen as brave if after you borrowed the money to gamble you finally succeed that is you make a lot of profit from it but if you do not make profit after borrowing..., one will be seen as someone who does not understand how gamble works or perhaps the person might be seen as a stupid and foolish person however, it is not like i am against borrowing of money to gamble but i am just saying most times if not all the time it does not worth it because on the uncertainty. i do not know how to explain this to you but i will try, i remembered when i was doing trading with Demo account and trust me all my strategy were working perfectly but the moment i funded my account to do the real thing, bro it was really crazy and sometimes they are just trying to lure you into that so i understand to that extent.

Borrowing money just for you to gamble will really be that definitely that a very bad thing to do because when you do engaged with gambling then its always been that advisable that you do really just that need to make use of the amount on which you can afford to lose because taking up some loan or borrowing money to gamble then it will really be that a huge problem specially with finances. Fullfill dreams? that would really be that a huge problem if you do have that kind of mindset when it comes into this aspect and it will really be that better that you do make use of the money on which it is really that extra. If you are really that good when it comes to self control because this isnt really just that good on gambling but also in other things.
On the time that you do make dealing up with gambling then make it sure that you wont really be going beyond your limits because this is where things do really happen on where issues will be that happening because you are really that losing up that control then you will definitely be having that financial problem on which we know that when it comes to money. If you do tend to borrow then make it sure that you are responsible on repaying the amount that you do have borrowed because usually people who do took out some loan is that they do forget or wasnt been able to do so because they dont have that money in abe to do so and thats why they do really end up on having some problems and the worst thing is that they do even take up some loans even more and that what makes them having that very huge problem on which this is a common situation on where these people do really ends up.

I have done it several times, and everything went well. Fortunately, I did not continue to do it and did not get addicted to  borrowing money to gamble because in the past, when I did not have money  to continue gambling and at the same time I got a very good feeling to continue betting. Until finally I borrowed money with an agreed return date and luckily for me, because it didn't take long and even, less than 24 hours I had managed to double the money.  This is a real story that I experienced in the past but even so, I can no longer repeat it because for now I no longer have a good feeling in gambling.

True, borrowing has nothing to do with fulfilling your desires, I think that on the contrary it can only make your desires even further away from you, because it can turn into a debt that you will have to pay off if you lose the money you borrowed. And here it is not a matter of courage but of common sense, there must be responsibility that will not allow you to make such a mistake, it is better to play with a small part of what you have, but not to borrow for this.

It's fine to take a risk. It's fine if you stake more than the amount you'd normally place on a bet and it's also fine if you sometimes use more than your gambling budget, as long as you know what you're doing, and like the saying goes "no risk, no reward." However, no matter how confident you're about your strategy or skill, one thing I wouldn't advice is not to sell your property to gamble all in the name of taking risk. One day, you might sell something valuable and not be able to recover it back.

What is likely to happen is that they will experience conditions that are indeed difficult and make themselves stressed with the situation that occurs, now I think people who take loans to gamble are only those who are addicted, well with someone who is addicted, usually they will only prioritize what they want, with a background that has debt but they will not prioritize it even though they have some money, because most likely they will only think about betting it first, hoping to get enough victory to cover all their debts and get more profit.

In my country there are many online loan applications and also many people have done this, some of them are even chased by the application because they do not pay their loans.

Well that's right, and the conclusion of the statement you made is that loans can't change the results at the end of the game at all, or it can also be said that no matter how hard you try to stay consistently involved in gambling, it won't change the results at the end of the game, I understand that maybe victory can be closer but can't a losing streak also be closer to you? well that's the problem, and that's why we always advise anyone to never treat gambling excessively.
Simply put, if for example you don't have the money to bet, then don't bet at that time, besides there is absolutely no coercion from the casino telling you to stay involved in gambling at that time.
So you are right that this is not about courage but about how smart you are in taking action and decisions, because it's useless even if you try as hard as you can, it won't affect the results.

You were lucky. But in my case, I have seen that when I borrow money for gambling, my losses increase. I have not been able to win with the borrowed money in most cases. Maybe this may seem unusual to many but I believe it. Because when I borrow money, I have a mental pressure to pay that money back, I need to win at that time. But when I do not win, I worry more. Which prevents me from taking appropriate decisions in terms of betting.

Overall, I find my losses. But when I have my own money, I have the ability to lose my money without mental pressure. At that time, the results of my bets are also comparatively better. Many people can win even by borrowing but before borrowing, I need to understand whether I can repay that money or not. If there is a way to repay the money even after losing in gambling, then borrowing is not bad.
