I’m rich… because gambling is my entertainment.

[Fredomago]

I think it all depends on our economic situation, because a poor person can play and have fun, not with large amounts of money but with what he can afford to lose, even if it means playing only with 5usd but he will enjoy those moments to the fullest, for me nothing else is needed but to know what we are getting into and how we should bet according to our situation, if we are clear about that there is no need to be rich to play in a casino.

Yeah, and local online casinos today do accept a low amount as a minimum bet. For example, here in the Philippines, we do have BingoPlus, one of the known online casinos licensed by PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation). Some games do accept a 1 peso bet ($0.018), and other slot providers do have a lower minimum amount, which is 0.50 peso.

A person doesn't need to be rich to play those slot games and might win a large amount if they suddenly get lucky in just a few rolls.

Even how small the amount if there are many gamblers that will wager the same value then it can still turned to a million profits for the house, you don't need to be rich nowaday to play or to gamble just need to allocates enough spare budget and you'll be able to enjoy yourself, just make sure to have that self limitation and apply it out to prevent exceeding from your set budget..

[mak013]

Normally, that is how gambling is supposed to be. No matter any condition a gambler might be, but is better to approach it wisely by betting with the amount that we can afford to lose. Because not that those gamblers that normally gamble fun and entertainment are billionaires, but is just a way of prevent often losses in gambling. Though, starting gambling journey with a mindset of become rich quick through it is actually the problem that is causing more losses and addiction in gambling.

The problem is not that gamblers want to win. Problem is that they think that gambling is easy way to become rich or to solve their financial problems. With such idea they just lose their money.
I understood that without winning i don`t interest in gambling(except some rare situations, when i know that i lose some money, but it is planned). But the same time i understand that in such a way gambling is a job and it is not funny, i don`t get some fun from the game, except the result.

The main problem for gamblers is can't control themselves when they lose maybe at the beginning they can do it but slowly they cross the line then spend all savings. I hear a lot of experiences like this and then they really stop when they have nothing left to gamble at the same time they said it was the right time to stop. I personally always avoid this potential, if i have enough money i will give it to my wife because I know he can manages it better. Gambling for entertainment only free money from casino if we use our own money we know the goal is to win and if  lose it's chaos.

It is a common situation for those who are not content with small winnings to end badly and turn their gambling into a nightmare. Perhaps many stories say good things about gambling, but yes, hearing negative ones is countless. Gambling could ruin our lives if we can't control ourselves.

Therefore, responsible gambling is necessary. And choose gambling as an entertainment, not because we want to become rich. If others can do it right, there is no reason we can't do the same. All we need is to stop thinking about winning and only gamble with extra money.

When the stakes are high, gambling cannot be considered fun. Because the gambler is worried that if he loses his bet, he will have to face big losses. So he does not enjoy gambling and he is worried about winning and losing. If a small amount of money is bet in gambling, then there is both joy and excitement. Some gamble with the aim of making money and some gamble with the aim of getting pleasure. If the goal of making money from gambling is to realize, there will be no pleasure. It is also true that if there is no money in gambling, most people will have no interest in gambling. But it must be under control.

[Dunamisx]

Gambling should be an entertainment to all of us, but I still can't understand why many of the gamblers can't afford to manage playing games as a means of an entertainment in other for them to get the comfortability required in having fun while gambling, this is not what we should mount pressure on ourselves to win at all cost, because gambling should serve as an entertainment to us as we engage it.

[$weetne$$]

So if gambling is an expensive form of fun, that must make us rich people, right?‘Cause like they say, when you gamble, you’re just throwing money away. And fellas, that’s what rich folks do, they throw money around like it’s nothing. 

So I'm proud to say, I’m living the rich life, one bet at a time...

You are on to something but one thing the rich do that we are not doing and that is what made them rich is that they put pressure second and chase the riches but we decide to do the opposite, we chase pressure first then decide to chase the riches later but before we get the opportunity to chase the riches, it is now late that most of us do not have the desire anymore. Gambling is a waste of money but if you are not wasting your money through gambling, you will be doing it through something different. Nobody is asking anyone to live like the rich through gambling but it is the poor that thinks, they can become rich through gambling but the reality is making them losers. Gambling should be for fun and not because people are searching for riches.

[Cookdata]

They say gambling is just entertainment, and honestly, we can’t deny it, when you think about it, we’re literally paying to be entertained. And the stats don’t lie: most gamblers end up losing in the end.

It's only in this forum I have seen people say gambling is for all the fun and entertainment and I get the motto is what everyone says here, that's what you see in most of the casino that does their advertisements here but outside the street, gambling is fuel by the luck money they make, if it's not for the money alot of casino would have fold up as customers wouldn't be coming and new casinos that's are everywhere will be bankrupted too.

Back in the 80s and 90s, casino gambling games were the most rampant gambling but over time, sports became the new king and now everyone want to have a gambling platform that's why it's very hard to see a casino platform without a feature where people can bet on different events. The availability of crypto Bitcoin in particular has made this become a tradition for crypto investor, bet with Bitcoin and make more money especially when the market pump.

I think gambling was originally created for fun. The industry is suffering because of people's tendency to practice and earn money. If you don't think about earning while gambling, it can be enjoyable for you. The tendency to gamble for money makes you greedy and makes you want to gamble more. If you lose while gambling, you try to recover that amount of money. Even after winning, you may still be emotionally inclined to win more. All these financial issues make you addicted to gambling. Gambling for fun can keep you mentally satisfy and does not affect you negatively.

You're right we are paying to be entertained by gambling but even if it's the life the rich lived it doesn't make sense or mean that  we all should live that same life. Yeah the rich tend to throw money at things that gives them happiness and entertainment but when your hands can't reach out to that aspect you back off. So if that's how you think you are living the rich lifestyle then get ready to be accountable for your loses when they come.

You are absolutely right bud, I completely agree with you, gambling initially was a game which people played for the sake of having fun and whinning away time, but as the world grew and things evolved, alot of things began to change and even people needed more means through which they can earn money to keep up with the rapidly changing world.
And then, many realized that they can actually make the money through gambling, this i believe was when people started betting money on games and so on and today, look where we are....

Its not a bad thing though, atleast, gambling to make money havd created jobs and employment for some people, and employers have been able to pay workers salaries as a result of desperate gamblers who do not mind pouring millions into gambling to win more but end up losing it, without those who are gambling to make money and there by losing more money in the process, I do not think gambling casinos will be striving as much as they are doing today.

Gambling is an expensive form of entertainment for those who want to spend a lot of money, but for me, it is not. There are people who pay for much more expensive forms of “entertainment” out there. It is not the fact that I enjoy gambling and have fun with it that makes me rich or makes me feel like I am throwing money away, but it is a very interesting point of view.

Just like going to a fancy nightclub where entry is so expensive, so is gambling. You can bring large or small amounts of money it depends on your wishes and how to limit your entertainment according to the budget you are ready to lose.
In gambling will never consider for profit let alone a get-rich-quick scheme ‘that's wrong’ you go to an online casino then the fun must be with everything ready.

[Nwada001]

Playing with the hope of winning a lot of money is what I think Many of us do , but we also have to keep our feet on the ground and wait for what happens and accept it with humility If we lose , we must assume the loss , We must not lose more than we are allowed to lose, otherwise we will be in a very bad way, and it will sometimes have serious consequences This must be avoided , We must make the game a pleasant experience.

Without the hope that we can win something from gambling, the fun will be as much as we define gambling to have it, but it's just hope, which we shouldn't rely much on, but it should be there. In each game, we wager the amount we use for each bet.

To me, I consider it to be money we pay for the fun we enjoy in the game and a little of it for the hope that we can get more attached to it, and if we don't get it today, we can use the fun to compensate ourselves until whenever we are lucky enough to enjoy that privilege.

I agree with your opinion. In essence, gambling for entertainment purposes is more suitable for wealthy people, as they already have a lot of money, so losing a little at the gambling table will not have a significant impact on their assets. Generally, someone who only seeks entertainment at the gambling table is a responsible gambler.

However, if you can control your emotions well while gambling, always bet no more than your initial gambling budget, and can control greed, you are truly fortunate, as not everyone can do that—including myself. The hardest thing for a gambler to do is to stop when they are winning.

[DaNNy001]

Nice clickbait but it's a huge fallacy. For starters, the premise is false.

And fellas, that’s what rich folks do, they throw money around like it’s nothing.  

Warren Buffet would be the most obvious counter example of this, but there are plenty more. People who started out poor or middle class and become rich usually don't waste money, and if they make expenditures that may seem obscene to you you have to think of them as a tiny part of their net worth.

Besides the bullshit you say has the following fallacious form:

1. Rich people waste money,
2. I waste money.

Conclusion: I am rich.

The bullshit is just as stupid as the following:

1. Monkeys drink water.
2. I drink water.

Conclusion: I am a monkey.

Lol this is a funny and intelligent way to explain this, wasting money on gambling doesn't make you rich like others that are doing it when you know fully well that you are struggling financially...what this actually does to you is that you put yourself in a more precarious situation due to accumulative losses... people who talk like this Don't keep track of their losses that's why they keep throwing money away even when they are broke

We need to know that those who gamble are not only for entertainment. There are more gamblers who try their luck to win bets. It can be entertainment for the rich, but not for those who really expect to win. Not all gamblers can be responsible for the gambling they do, not only those who come with small bets. But those who are rich with big bets can also be irresponsible.

I agree with those who consider gambling a way to have fun. But those who have that point of view have they really considered gambling as entertainment, or are they just hiding from the fact that they are actually addicted?

Unfortunately, not all gamblers have the same mindset. Because many of us are playing to profit and not because they just want to entertain themselves. They are seeing gambling as the answer for their financial problem (by winning huge amount) that's why even it is their last money, they will still gamble.

Gambling as an entertainment doesn't necessarily mean you're rich since you're throwing away your money (knowing that losing is inevitable). Because you can gamble using a small amount to entertain and satisfy yourself. Now, if you're having regrets because you lose even your goal is just to have fun, then better to switch to other activity that doesn't require you to spend your money.

You are right mate, gamblers that intend to make profits while they are gambling are not always enjoying the fun. Based on my point of view, I think most of them become addicted during the process because they might risk what they can never afford to lose and after losing the chases their losses. If a gambler loses money and he cnt get it back easily it means that he can not afford it, so it's preferable for them not to gamble and regret later after losing.

I`m talking not about bet size. It is hard every day work. You analyze events, calculate odds according your strategy and risk-management, check the odds, wait match start, checking the odds again. Sometimes make a bet, sometimes skip the match, if the odds not good enough. Sometimes recalculate bet size. And lots of other small every day work. At least it was in my betting. Someone has another strategy, but he has lots of such everyday tasks to.
