Don't Gamble when you are Broke

[$weetne$$]

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

I do not support gambling as a means to get out of poverty because I hardly see that turning out good for those that are involved in this habit. I do not know how they are able to stay calm all throughout the losses they will be having because all they are concerned about is how to make money and forgetting to have fun. Gambling when you are broke will leave you heartbroken when you lose the last batch of money that you had and when that happens, you will begin to look frustrated and maybe do some illegal things just to get some money. For those that have been addicted already, they go to gamble again with the money they just got and this keeps on happening.

Exactly, this will only add to our thoughts, make emotions more unstable, and of course it will make us less able to control or control ourselves with more readiness and patience. Well, this is not good if we continue the game to gamble with this worse broken condition. And the, as you said, will end up the regrets, more regrets, and then followed by big losses again.

If we are in a bad condition, it would be much better if we:
- stop and take a break, close the gambling screen
- Make sure to calm yourself down first, with whatever you can do to calm yourself down
- Make sure to be emotionally and financially ready again to continue.

But I know, this is not easy to realize when desire is higher..

Under no circumstances should a person who is going through a critical financial Situation think about playing in a casino or betting on sports. I know that out of desperation these options Appear and are very tentative, but despite that, it is not advisable. It is better a thousand times to look for a job Where you can get money quickly, to gradually get back on your feet. That is the best thing to do , Try to relax a little and think better before making another bigger mistake. For me, playing is not the solution.

Being broke is already bad and doing more damage to yourself by losing bets and money on gambling is irresponsible way of gambling and maybe as a person. And so, be responsible financially first and make up yourselves and so you won't be broke. With that, people that sees you gamble won't tell you to stop gambling because you're responsible but if you're already broke and you try to change your situation through gambling, that's not a way to go and people should change their minds if that's the kind of thinking they have.

I don`t sure that you`re right. Lots gamblers plays in lots of different situation and i don`t sure that the main part decide that it is easy way to repair their budget. If it is so, i will be disappointed in humanity.
But it is the main part of sad stories we hear. The problem, as for me, that we hear only about such gamblers on one hand and stories of great success on the other hand. We know nothing about the main part of gamblers who just play. Lose and win some small sums, buy few lottery tickets per month, etc.

While I think that it is good to always reiterate these advice, I like to think that, it is totally worthless at least for to the gambler. No gambler would stop gambling when they are broke if they have already made their minds to gamble. They will always find a way. The best lessons that would teach them not to gamble when they are broke, is huge loss that result in indebtedness and some life altering life crisis.

This is a dangerous situation for a gambler.  It is possible that this gambler had developed a compulsive gambling habit and was probably in need of immediate treatment.  Once they are addicted, it will be difficult for them to learn and once they are in debt, it may escalate to financial ruin.

So a sane gambler will think twice or thrice before engaging in gambling when he is broke.  He will think of the future consequences of whether he can pay them soon if ever he resorts to borrowing money.  I agree that it is indeed the best lesson for a sane gambler to experience some life-altering life crises but it will only be a waste to someone who already developed an addiction.

So for our personal health sake, never gamble when we are broke, it can lead to a series of unfortunate consequences in our emotional, mental, financial, and social health.

Gambling when you're broke doesn't add up and would only lead to more deeper financial crisis . Gambler's who engaged in gambling when broke are addictive to the course and since the gambler is so broke & desperately minded to gamble,he may  start looking for an alternative to get money and might not have a choice than to start borrowing funds to gamble,with a thoughts to play with higher funds and that if he wins,the funds will used to solve his financial problems. Moreover,since gambling is a game of probability and doesn't come with a winning guarantee and as such is not  reliable,The gambler might end up loosing all his borrow funds in gambling in the course of trying to win big money. Gambling is anot a reliable alternative for sourcing out funds when broke, instead of gambling,a gambler should engage in salary jobs and other meaningful engagement.

If a person gambles if they are broke financially, then they are putting themselves into a worse position that they currently experience.

Gambling should be seen primarily for entertainment; the element of profit-making should only be secondary or indirectly. Once a person views gambling for profit, then expect inconsistent results from their end. The problem starts when these people are so blinded with their addiction that they start to chase profits which go beyond their designated budget.

Given all the discussions about gambling and the person's respective budget, it is imperative that a person should manage their expectations and limit their budget strictly. Avoid all possible situations where you would put yourself in a situation where you would be desperate to gamble for cash.

Good to know but unfortunately it's not always the case, people who makes good amount of money don't see reasons to gamble because you will be shocked that those gamblers are gambling to make money, there are many people like them in the world.

They believe they can win so they will use any money they can find to try their luck, looking for a job is another thing entirely for them, they don't really care, have anyone been to slums in any country before? They are living like animals, poor kids and women, such people won't care to look for a job first over gambling.

Before you say this isn't true I believe that poor people are the biggest victim of gambling, they sees gambling as a form of escape, way better than looking for jobs or going to school, with the little I witnessed I knew how been poor can affect the way you think.

[lovesmayfamilis]

If only it were as simple as these poor people who have lost their livelihood think, that by playing they can help themselves get back what they have lost. It is not for nothing that we sometimes see cases of suicide or other tragedies from those who have gone bankrupt, having lost every cent. Sometimes I feel sorry for such people; they cannot find a job because they are either lazy or they have neither a profession nor skills. But some do not listen to warnings about the dangers of games when their wallets are empty, and then it is only their fault and their choice that they do not listen to advice and take such risks.

Indeed. Playing when you're broke is not a good idea. For a person who's struggling financially, gambling can only be an addition to your current problem if you lose your money and that's not far from the reality since losing is inevitable.

Therefore, stay away and focus on what can make you feel at ease, look for a solution that can give a good result. Hence, just gamble if you're mentally fine and prepared for the worse case.

Gambling when you are broke would only make you lose more because you tend to put in more emotions into it when you need money badly, and when you gamble with such mindset you are going to lose..Some people gamble because they need money urgently for something.. it's a game of winning and losing, Profit isn't guaranteed, it's not some kind of investment that can just double your money whenever you want.. people who do this need to change their mindset about gambling.

There's was an old thread where a member wanted to double the money he wanted to use for medical treatment but because the money was not going to be enough, he wanted to use the one he has to gamble, so he can double it but I think they advise of members discouraged him. There are some situations that one is not supposed to gamble, when they are broke, when they want to double the money they intended to use for something important and when they think they can win the house. Any gambler that is gambling in such a situation will just end up to blame them self.

The reality in this is that, whenever you gamble just to get out of financial breakdown you will end up in more mess than you are, this is the reality with gambling, and the reason why most people advice that we should only gamble with a small amount and the money that we can afford to lose and still be ok with, this is what most people that take gambling as a means to get rich quick, their believe that gambling must be done with profits making in mind, so whenever they gamble the expect to win a certain amount of money, so if that doesn't happen they tend to become aggressive and dearing to gamble with a high amount of money in the end.

You mean breakthrough, right? Well, someone that is gambling even when they are totally broke and should be managing their small funds pending on when they will receive extra funds, the person is only gambling to double their funds and not really interested in the fun of gambling and if they lose that money, they will be totally pained because that's the only money they probably had and should not have gambled with it.

Someone that is broke and gambling is very bad. That is an indication that the person is an addict. Likely what makes the person broke is gambling. I have seen people like this before. They will become addict and become so broke all because all the money they have are being spent on gambling.

If you have money, gamble responsibly. If you are broke, do not gamble at all.

Some don't even gamble because they are broke, they go on begging relatives for money because they want to spend it on gambling, in reality, they don't actually need money, but just that they want to have a feeling of fulfillment that a week pass without them having a slip to hope on.

I've been in the same state of mind where I gamble every weekend even when I have enough money on me, not because I want more money, or because I'm broke for looking for more money but there's an inner feeling of fulfillment I'll experience, an inner peace within me. If you know you know.

I think the number of such gamblers is certainly not small. I myself have gone through such a time. Even if I had enough money, I did not find any fun in gambling unless I placed a bet slip. If I did not have money, I tried to manage my gambling money in some other way. I did not consider myself an addicted gambler, but rather I enjoyed the excitement of gambling. Those who have been involved in gambling for a long time know this very well. Satisfaction is more attractive to people than money. Although everyone's goal in gambling is to win, there are many who feel that moment of excitement the most.

Winning Gravity drags players who can't delay it into doing weird things which wouldn't benefit their gaming history or journey. Why would a player with little amount of money go ahead to gamble if not for greed and the self deceitfulness that a few more session could fetch winning results. It's always important for gamblers to learn through platforms like bitcointalk or other gaming forums, that being responsible as a gamer is rewarding, while reckless choices probably leads to emotional pains.

Gambling when depressed or financially unstable will make more losses and adding more problems when he loses. But did you know that some gamblers are already gambling when they are depressed and financially unstable? However, the reason they gamble is basically because they needed money, so they think betting will give them money to settle the problems they already are.

These people who gamble because they need money are lazy.  Instead of moving their ass to look for a regular paying job, they tend to go for a risky rich quick scheme thinking that engaging in gambling is the answer.

Their reason that they gamble because they need money is just an excuse to justify their action.  The truth is that they can't control the urge to gamble.  The reason why even with the little money left in their pocket, they choose to gamble it away instead of using it to look for a regular paying job.

Some don't even gamble because they are broke, they go on begging relatives for money because they want to spend it on gambling, in reality, they don't actually need money, but just that they want to have a feeling of fulfillment that a week pass without them having a slip to hope on.

Isn't this a problem gambling already?  To have fulfillment through gambling sounds like a developing complusive gambling if not actual compulsive gambling to me...  I do not know what others take on this.

I've been in the same state of mind where I gamble every weekend even when I have enough money on me, not because I want more money, or because I'm broke for looking for more money but there's an inner feeling of fulfillment I'll experience, an inner peace within me. If you know you know.

Have you gotten out of this situation or feeling?  This is somehow concerning, this might develop to gambling addiction if left unchecked.

When a person is inexperienced and participates in gambling, he thinks that he can earn a huge amount of income from gambling. But after a few days, it is seen that the gambler's mind and heart are broken and he loses his last capital in gambling and becomes completely destitute. These situations sometimes occur when one participates in gambling without budgeting or even planning, creating a heartbreaking situation. If a person participates in gambling by planning a certain portion of his monthly or weekly salary at a certain time of the week or month and does not exceed the limits of greed, he will definitely not fall into such a broken situation.

Well, how can you gamble if you are broke? If you wish to gamble you need some money for that, and if you have some money but "you can't allow yourself to lose it" don't even try to gamble... gambling can make you broke.

It's a completely different case if you have a few dollars in your wallet and you wondering whether to buy ice cream & juice, maybe take a little walk in the park/by the river, or spend that money on some gambling. It's completely your personal choice and you can't go wrong with whatever you choose. You do what you want with your money and what matters is that it feels good to you.

Surveys prove that the average person who gambles is from the lower middle class, where those who have a difficult economy still gamble because what is on their mind is that they can change their fate and one day become billionaires, as well as people who are desperate or have experienced many problems then decide to gamble and they end up losing all their money and further destroying their lives, gambling when bankrupt is the same as us deliberately being on the edge of a cliff and hoping for someone to help but still fall.
