Don't Gamble when you are Broke

[Mindyspace]

...

Our initial capital is always very important in every category, we need capital to gamble and not owing in debts. What's the essence of gambling when one is broke? Ofcourse it doesn't make any sense because there are more complicated sectors to deal with and also handle. What can we do for ourselves? We set goals and ensure we hit them with strategies. Gambling is never too sure for anyone, we have our pattern and word directly with it. We know how hard it'd been for most of these gambling to bear the losses and profits.

It's true that without a minimum of financial organization, getting into this kind of game becomes more of a desperation than a strategy. Starting out in debt only makes things worse. But what about those who have little to start with and still want to try? Is it possible to set up a safe strategy even with little capital?

Gambling isn't just for the rich or for the financially stable folks. It's for everyone, Yes, gambling is for everyone regardless of their financial position and status. As long as a poor man gambles responsibly with his low budget from his low income, then I see absolutely nothing wrong that.  Where I have a problem is when some is poor and have little to nothing to live off of, and then he uses that little to put into gambling.

Most times people gamble when they are broke thinking and believing that they will make money but ends up losing even the remaining small money that is in their hand , gambling when you are broke is one of the worst things that anyone can do because when anyone is broke there are alot of things that are going on in the mind of such a person and for gambler's the huge to gambling will come on propelling then to gamble that they will bounce back, this is what many gambler's has experienced so we should try as much as possible not to gamble while we are broke as it will lead to more worries and regrets

Most times people gamble when they are broke, thinking they will make quick money but they often end up losing the little they have left. Gambling in that state is one of the worst decisions anyone can make( I have done). When you are broke, your mind is already filled with stress, and for many gamblers that pressure augment the urge to bet as a way to bounce back, and make some profit( little they know)

But the truth is, this mindset has led many down a path of deeper loss and regret. It’s important to remember that gambling should never be seen as a solution to financial problems. If anything, it adds to them. So we should try as much as possible to avoid gambling when we are broke it only leads to more worry and disappointment.

Many keep on doing that. Despite that they are having financial problems and broke, they continue to test their luck in gambling and hoping someday they'd hit the jackpot.

It's not even 1% that tries it get what they look for and the majority are just losing with it. We know the reality on this one and many lives are falling apart because of the misconception they're proving and believing to themselves about gambling.

It shouldn't be made a reason for them to believe for that will help them have a better life.

Unfortunately, gambling for many gamblers is just a way to temporarily escape from reality and stop feeling what they are currently feeling in reality. This can be disappointment or resentment, because during gambling all attention is focused on money, because this is important.
After all, if we win big money, we can change almost any real situation, but unfortunately, gamblers do not often win, and escaping from reality is only a temporary measure.

The only thing that truly concerns a person who has no money is how to earn it without falling into debt. Seeing gambling as a way to make money is a serious misconception and, in essence, an escape from taking responsibility for one’s decisions. It’s important to realize that a stable income comes from conscious actions and planning, not from risky bets that can only make the situation worse. True strength lies in the ability to face life’s challenges and find real solutions, rather than trying to avoid them with the illusion of easy profit.

In fact, attitudes toward gambling and risk largely depend on each individual's life situation. I have been gambling for most of my life and have changed my attitude toward this form of entertainment more than once. At one time, I was a very risky and irresponsible gambler because I could afford it. For a while, I stopped gambling altogether because I had neither the time nor the money for it. Now I gamble no more than once every two weeks and try to limit myself. I don't know how I will feel about gambling in five years, but I know for sure that all this time I have gotten what I wanted from gambling. Therefore, it is not entirely correct to think that everyone gambles in order to make money or pass the time. Every gambler pursues their own goals depending on the situation.

Especially poor people often make risky decisions, they want to make a lot of money as soon as possible, and no matter how risky it is, they will do it. And so they expect such possibilities in gambling that may be almost impossible to get in real life. a addicted Gambler aways want positive result, but the main thing is that, it is always good to have a positive attitude, but it should be based on reality, and not something that is associated with unrealistic possibilities.

Broke people gamble because they think they could make money out of gambling same as all other gamblers who wants to make money. If they got success, its good but most they fail. The ones that gamble even with so much money even lost them all.

The pressure in making money seem to be pushing people to gamble, I have seen this happen in the neighborhood where people are just not looking for a job instead but gamble.

When making money is the motivation behind the reason you are gambling your mindset and focus could make you lose due to the fact that you tend to be more desperate. I've noticed that people that gamble when they are broke are always under pressure because they don't want to lose the little one they have but yet they still want to take the risk, this means that they are not ready to accept losses which is a funny way to think when gambling

I do wish that would always be the case, but it is not. There are gamblers who are doing it for the purpose of having more money and not as a temporary escape from reality. They want to win, we want to win, which is why it is more frustrating when a losing streak happens.

You are right, though, that gamblers do not often win. Now, that's reality. Gambling is a high-risk type of game, and we should always be ready for the losses that will happen. It's inevitable, it's the characteristic of gambling, it's business, it's not a charity, and we should be ready with those things so that it's less stressful.

Escaping reality is easier to do with drugs. But if they are used to gambling its going to be the preferred one than sniffing.

People however with so much money from the past and suddenly become poor because of gambling will still spend a ton just to feel like they are rich.  The feeling that they still have the status is way comforting. Which they will probably gamble to make more money, its to goal.

When you're gambling under pressure, you will definitely run at loss because you are not focused and your mind isn't at rest. This is why when gambling, we should avoid whatever thing that will put us under pressure like gambling when it is not convenient for you or gambling when you're broke. It's not compulsory that you must gamble when you don't have the chance and resources.

You are right, when someone is gambling to make money, the person will be under some certain pressures that will make him or her very desperate to win but winning is by luck and no gambler knows when their lucky day will come and that means no gambler can manipulate their winning. I think gamblers that gamble all the time are becoming addicted to gamble gradually.

I agree with you mate, that winning is by luck but when you're gambling under pressure, it puts you under emotional stress which will leas to poor betting choices which will lead to a big loss. If you are gambling on pressure, it's better to stop gambling to avoid frustration at the end.

I like the saying which goes; “don’t go shopping when you’re hungry, you might just end up picking things that you don’t need because of your hunger” the same goes for gambling if you’re doing it to escape reality it’s not a bad thing but you should be careful not to become addicted to it - we tend to get addicted to things that makes life a bit bearable for us and if you’re using gambling as an escape then you should be more cautious about it.

As for gambling while broke, it’s actually not possible to be able to gamble and have fun while you’re broke because at that moment all your mind would be focused on would be how you could make your little balance into a huge amount through that gambling and that’s how my quote relates to this post. If you’re broke and you go gambling you’d definitely be doing it for monetary gain which we all know is the main reason for some people making some rash decision which could lead to some detrimental results.

Many people go to borrow not only from acquaintances, but also from organisations designed for this purpose, so it is not only about control, but also about the reasonableness of the person who plays, in his ability to stop in time and think whether he can afford to play further or not. In any game it is all about control - it is the most important thing, it is control that will not allow you to lose more than you need or to get involved in the game to the fullest extent possible

This thing about lending money is such a delicate matter, it is delicate because sometimes the person lending the money does not have the means to fulfill such obligations, and sometimes their life is seriously damaged because of it, so in view of this we must see that lending money to gamble is something that already escapes the normal levels of finance, under no circumstances would I support this, it is a very bad decision, if you lose in the game you should just accept it and move on.

[rachael9385]

I think it comes with self-discipline; if you gamble and are broke, that's just stupidity, in my opinion, and you have a problem because you cannot control yourself knowing that you are broke but still gambling.

If you are broke, there are better things to do than gambling, and if you cannot understand that, then you know why you are broke.

Gambling when broke isn't really as a result of stupidity on my opinion because those are doing actually know better, it's more of desperation to get money. Being broke first of all puts you off balance then gambling on top it again is a risky move that can put you in a more precarious situation. The problem with people who do this is that you can't talk them out of it because they have already set out their mind to do it

[Ever-young]

People should gamble with their extra money and not when they are broke, that is right but not for all the people.
There are some who still try thei luck with their last money hoping to get in the situation where they can earn big time with gambling.
That is not addiction but a hope they are holding to get out of the problem.

there is no 100% , they can be lucky sometimes and be unlucky most of the time.

That's true, and such people are always lucky to win with their last card.
And this kind of person's are those that are in control of their emotions, they don't allow their emotions to take over them, because they believe that if they win, it's their luck and if they don't, it's for the best. They don't really hope that they are going to make money or income out of it, they just need what they use to settle themselves especially when there is an emergency.
But no matter how one gamble, they should always gamble responsibly.

Gambling when being broke gives you a lot of problem, and it show that it is gamblers that are addicted engage themselves in gambling when broke, some gamblers go as far as borrowing money to place a bet, money that they can manage to take care of themselves and they continue using it for gambling,it is adviceable to stay away from gambling, if not they find themselves in situations that they can't control, and ends up giving their family a big problem because some of them ends up commiting suicide.

[LUCKMCFLY]

We need to take pauses, rest, and just forget about gambling for many hours in our day, or better, a whole day without it. When we are too hooked on the game, we can expect that we will be spending more money because the losing streak percentage is higher than it is with winning. So, it's better if we can control our gambling habits, especially with casino and slot games.

Sometimes a long break or a good rest prolongs life, I have experienced many things in my life, since I was at the U I hardly slept, I got used to being active at night and almost early in the morning, but that affected my health a lot, so much so that it even caused me to have facial paralysis, and that is despite the fact that I practice sports and everything, but being at home warm I went out into the cold and that caused that to me, of course a drop in my immune system caused that to happen to me, so you can say that a good rest is prolonging our life and that should be very well taken advantage of.

Things like this is what we keep discussion in the forum, it will not do any good to the person. Being broke should affirm to right choice of spending, gambling house is always against the gambler, if he choose to entertain himself or chase a big pay based on luck that is a rough way of handling his problem. It takes lot of nerves to make that decision, concerns should be what occurs if luck doesn't favors the bet, the gamblers goes into serious depression, unlikely thoughts raiding the mind and unable to even provide for a meal after hence.

What do you know about depression? I had it when I lost a lot of money. I borrowed this money from the bank, that is, I went and took out a loan to continue gambling. Imagine my state when I lost everything and was left without a job. It was a terrible time that I can’t forget to this day. It was so hard to get out of this hole. All this lasted for more than 5 years. I even thought about suicide, because I didn’t see a way out of this situation. Fortunately, my family helped me, they supported me all this time.
