How much risk is it worth taking?

[Z390]

This question comes up all the time, especially when the subject involves money, bets or decisions that can turn out well... or very badly.

Taking risks is part of life. Sometimes it's how we grow, learn and achieve something new. But there are also times when risk can turn into a headache, especially when it comes to gambling.

Is it worth it to gamble without thinking? Or to get caught up in the idea that you'll solve your problems with a stroke of luck? Difficult, right? The truth is that if you're going to take risks, you have to do it consciously. Don't bet what you can't afford to lose.

However, when the risk is well thought out, with limits and strategy, it can even be worth it. The important thing is to know how far you can go without getting lost along the way.

And for you, when does the risk start to no longer be worth it? 

Gamblers are just too greedy unfortunately, because there is no amount of loss could hurt you if you stays on risking a percent of your income on gambling, that once percent remains one percent.
Even if you are earning $10 every month you can still be a gambler, all you have to do is avoid other gamblers from corrupting your mind, cut your clothes according to your size and risk small money, a percentage to be precise.
Life is all about risk and I do take risks too but with gambling it's a different story because the chances of failing is very high, and that's because it's gambling, that's not so safe to begin with, a percent of your income will just do fine.

All risks are useful are worth to be take if the total sum Is positive at the end. I think its all directly linked on the balance that you have.
Best option Is always to have a budget and a strategy. Be ready for a Plan B but always have a clear plan if you're betting huge amounts/you want reach a profit...

You can't really determine the outcome of a risk so if you continue taking uncalculated risks they are not worth it even though you end up getting lucky In the end it's still a crazy thing to do because if things were to go south it would have affected you a lot. The best thing to do at all times is to stake low, taking a lot of risk can put you under duress which isn't good for yourself physical and mental health

Yep. I think how much time you spend gambling is more than anything else. Risk taking depends on how you gamble and varies for everyone. Some people play on high odds while others prefer accumulating small wins. I always try to go for high odds whether it's casino or sports because that is the only way to make money in gambling. I play on small odds only when I am trying to wager lol.

There should be more emphasis on how long your sessions last. I was almost getting addicted because I was spending way too much time on gambling and almost everywhere I would start gambling. Then I started making sure my sessions are shorter and further started to limit the number of sessions too.

Fir gambling you don't overdo yourself all because you aim at making profits or getting a win and to be frank there's no much risks to be taken in gambling knowing fully well your chances of winning are quite unpredictable. Sometimes the risks we take tend to be worth it but in most cases we need to risks on low odds cause yes gambling comes with so much aches and when you risks higher amount and end up loosing it'll be a story for another day. So to be on the safer sides risks what you can afford to lose.

It's absolutely true and most people don't take care about time spent in gambling. Hours and hours spent already have a cost for a player!
If you are seeking for profit, you must take in count also the hours that you gamble = like a minimum hourly wage.
On the contrary If you are playing for fun, you can get many hours of fun for a little or no price at all

Gambling is supposed to be fun and makes some money, that is if it comes but if doesn't comes, it shouldn't be a something that is going to a set a back for you that's why it's advisable to gamble what you can afford to lose, that's the next way you can gamble and not feel anything but when it becomes personal that you are gambling to make a living, it will be a frustration from your end, everything you do is going to be with pressure and fear of not losing.

If I'm going to take a risk, it's going to be risk that wouldn't hurt me financially and emotionally, gambling has way it disturb your mind whenever you lose a bet, it will twist your mind that you don't know what you are doing and then financial is losing your money but it's financial loss that brings emotions too, so gambling with little amount of money can help you deal with the emotional money, you lose and forget what you can afford completely.

Gambling has one particular thing, which is that you can always do what you want because you will be looking at the money. So the thing is, just caution yourself when it's becoming too much, and we know that gambling is risky. And when you choose your small wins, it will be much better because when you aim too high, you will waste a lot of money, so there are a lot of reasons why you just have to be careful when you are gambling. And when it comes to odd selection, it's also very strategic. You don't just jump on any odd you see and feel people need to be coached when it comes to gambling.

And if you don't draw yourself back, there is no way that you won't get addicted, so if you don't want to get addicted, you just have to find a way of controlling yourself because we all know that we want money, but when you decide to spend much time gambling, then you are going to find it very hard because it is very interesting, especially when you are making money, and another funny thing is that even if you are not making money, you will want to make money, so there should be a line.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I would say it's not worth it, knowing that you will either win or lose, but in most cases, you will lose because gambling isn't supposed to make you money but it is supposed to make money from you.

You're right, but there are many factors that influence people, one of them is social media , you see that when you're on YouTube there are many influencers who show that they win, the need to have more money, there are many things that people consume unintentionally , and that's what needs to be controlled, there are many people who fall for casino scams, and there are many who lose too much money gambling, for this you have to be very mature in money management.

For casual gamblers social media is indeed the number one source to influence gambler to play but for those regular like me I think bonuses and promotion gives the motivation to keep playing.

Sadly, the number of casual player and newly registered gambler is already increasing due to the popularity of online casino especially slot games that makes them risk what they can’t afford to lose.

Casino should have limits on the amount user can expense depending on the age of the account to control addiction problem.

Fact checked and confirmed that, life is runned on the basis and wing's of risks, most especially when you come to gambling and anything that involves financial dealing and the results, or outcome doesn't depend on you alone but in collaboration with others, so for sure if you don't risk it, you can't get the results you want, but what is important is that, while you are risking it, try as much as possible to take only calculated risks, and and just any risks that comes your ways.

If it's not calculated then the risk isn't worth taking, a lot of people always say no risk no reward, that's true but this can come at a great cost when the outcome doesn't favour. What makes gambling so difficult is the fact that you can't really predict the outcomes accurately. This is why it's advisable to stake only what you can afford to lose so that just Incase things doesn't go your way it doesn't affect you much

Social media hype is very detrimental. Those content creators are just there for the money the generate on the respective platforms example the YouTube cited. Many of them come in with edited and overhyped bet tickets claiming huge wins meanwhile in reality they never won anything tangible.

Most of the casino scams people fall for are through social media engagements. In gambling losing is sure but winning is never a guarantee. Winning is under probability but losing is almost like a certainty. The amount of risk that is worth taking depends on individuals but on average I will say a risk that doesn't exceed the initial budget.

There is a popular phrase that you may also know: "Take the risk or lose the opportunity." It means that opportunities cannot come with a pre plan, they come suddenly, and if you grab them on time, you will be one of the successful people. However, not every time is it wise to take a risk, sometimes you have to avoid risks because you can't afford to lose, nor does it always work. If you act blindly and find yourself with nothing the next day, what will you do? So my suggestion regarding risk is to take it, but with strategy and planning. You should always have a Plan B, if this doesn't work, then you can use that to Give a comeback.

Indeed. Not because we can afford to take risks, then we can be careless with our actions. We also need to think deeply about whether this is worth it, just like in gambling.

Well, people say that gambling is not worth risking (a word from non-gamblers). However, I gambled and spent money to enjoy life. I think it was worth spending on something that we know we can benefit from.

Gambling does not happen accidentally, but it is a plan. Therefore, I assume that all gamblers are here because they believe that gambling is worth taking.

Most gamblers continue to gamble because they have become addicted to gambling to one degree or another. Many of them are not even aware of this. For many, gambling has become a form of entertainment that requires money on a regular basis, much like smoking tobacco or drinking alcohol. If a person can control their gambling expenses, then it is not a problem for them, but there are quite a few people who spend their last money on gambling. This is a serious psychological problem that needs to be addressed.

The current young generation is one of the harmful temptations of gambling through this social media, they usually see such tempting advertisements and they cannot handle their temptation. However, here we cannot blame the advertisements in any way, because casinos will definitely do this to increase their popularity, but they never force gamblers to gamble. So here the gambler has definitely become addicted to gambling due to his weakness and has faced big losses. So first you have to handle yourself, if you can keep yourself right, everything will be fine.

Is it worth it to gamble without thinking?

it doesn't worth to gamble without thinking. As a matter of fact, To be a Gambler you must be a calculative thinker otherwise you lose all the time.

Or to get caught up in the idea that you'll solve your problems with a stroke of luck? Difficult, right? The truth is that if you're going to take risks, you have to do it consciously. Don't bet what you can't afford to lose.

Yes the best way to completely get rid of the idea of getting caught up that you will solve your problem  with a stroke of luck, is by gambling wisely expecialy gambling what you can afford to lose because when you gamble above what you can afford to lose, it will definitely result to getting addicted to staking high and lose, chasing after loses which will become a serious problem of not being self controlled.

However, when the risk is well thought out, with limits and strategy, it can even be worth it. The important thing is to know how far you can go without getting lost along the way.

That's exactly how it is. You are indeed talking from experience.

And for you, when does the risk start to no longer be worth it?  

The risk start becoming not worth it is when I begin to gamble above what I can afford to lose by chasing loses, or becoming aggressive for no reason and Gambling above my bankroll.

exactly, you have to think about what you are doing and analyze your decisions, learn with your mistakes and improve over time otherwise you are doomed

usually when we take a huge risk for a small reward it's not worth it
as simple as that

those who gamble only for the thrill with no plan should give up on making money too since this is the perfect recipe for giving it all to the owner of the house

Without a doubt things are like that, I am also a very frequent player, but in reality what I can't stand so much is having so much patience, patience for me is something that is quickly Exhausted and since bonuses are now so conditional and I don't like it, because there are many requirements and that is achieved with patience, perhaps bonuses and contests are for less volatile people who really Enjoy being there, I am a fan of quick results.

It is risky not to take the risks while gamblings because you can never can tell when is to win or change their life stories. As a gambler there should be a proper mathematics calculation before you can go straight taking any calculated risk while gambling.
You can decide to skip some games and bet knowing that even if you tried to you had in your mind you can still end up losing it that is why it's good use money that we can accept to lose to gamble without attaching so much value to the money.

The casino wants that type of player too and keep them glued to the to screen, taking their money out every instant while giving them small incentives in between to keep their confidence up.

For them the risk is less important but spending the money and seeing the possibility of making money is.

It is a risky lifestyle often riddled with debts, family issues and conflict. If you keep your debt under control and have a stable income you can get through it.

Whatever we do, of course, all have risks and it all depends on how we deal with it. In gambling, the risk of loss is much greater, so when we want to gamble, we are required to be able to manage the risk so as not to lose everything.
We often see some people who play without considering the risk, so usually they always feel a loss when they are in a bet because they only rely on luck and hope that luck can give them victory, so we can conclude that if we do it without managing the risk properly, it will always end in loss.

I agree casino owner loves those types of gamblers, as it helps keeping the business alive and being successful, they provide those attractive offers attracting  gamblers to keep seeking for such rewards unknowing that from such actions they are risking their money and most of the time it was them that ends up empty handed.

Though they'll realize things and sometimes regret things, but the money was already collected by the house owners and add it up to their paychecks..

You need to take risks. It is an obligatory part of life and you should not be afraid of it. Even when meeting a girl, we are afraid and take risks, the risk of being rejected. You need to somehow learn to enjoy the risk, but it is important for mom to learn to correctly assess her chances. For example, if someone is going to take a risk in gambling, he must understand that the Profit will be so big that the risk will be justified.
Any way luck is important too.
