Is gambling inspiring people to work harder?

[Churchillvv]

So how do you see this kind of lifestyle? Do you judge them as wrong because their reason is gambling, or do you respect it since everyone has their own way of finding happiness?

Basically judging them will only be from a different stand point if only I live in the same place then I would be in a better position to judge, however this is the catch if they work harder to feed their urges it’s good because they aren’t stealing like other would do to cover up for the urge but what if the work is not longer there will they keep hustling to gamble? That’s a side defect that it might cost them in future. For now it’s nothing bad basically but if thereafter they get in to it more than normal it becomes bad and making money just to gamble for me seems weird.

Just want to share something I’ve observed in our community. I know a few people who are consistent gamblers, yet they also work really hard. It seems like gambling actually pushes them to hustle more, because they need money to fuel their gambling activities.

In their case, they’ve been gambling for years, but they’re still responsible with work, so I don’t see it as pure irresponsibility. Their motivation might be different, but they’re still putting in the effort, even if the end goal is just to fund their gambling.

This is subjective, because if you look at it holistically, there are some people who lack enthusiasm for work and choose to focus on gambling, seeking their fortune and winnings to meet their needs. I've noticed quite a few people, even in forums, constantly questioning whether gambling can become a profession. This perspective certainly can't be generalized.

If you ask whether someone can be motivated by being an active gambler and then think they need to work harder to earn money so they can gamble longer and/or spend large sums, that's a very rare thought. Of course, it is possible, and some people are motivated by such a concept.

Well, this is not the same for everyone....The main reason why gambling can be an inspiration for someone to work harder is when they end up losing a huge amount of money, this makes them want to work hard to get back what they have lost, in my opinion this is actually better than gambling more to get back losses...But the best thing to do is to work not because you are promoted by gambling but you must have a quest to improve your life

Isn't this the most stupid thing that anyone can do? Tell me if I am not making any sense, how will you work hard only to risk it on gambling when the reality of gambling is you losing the money most of the time?

Many people are trapped in this stupid plan and they end up losing almost all they worked for, Inspired by what again? Gambling? That's inspired to make casinos rich off you, gambling is the most stupid thing to be inspired by.

Work hard and invest your money in stocks or bitcoin, this is a worthy plan compare to you breaking your health to gather money only to end up throwing it all away because of gambling.

If you want to be a gambler you need to be responsible with it.

[Shinpako09]

Well, everyone has a reason why they work hard, and for them, it’s gambling. Addicted or not, I can still say they’re responsible since they’re not taking out loans to fund their gambling, instead, they’re working hard. As long as they spend part of their salary on important things like bills, daily needs, and save some, they’re good to go. I also have neighbors like that, they work hard just to sustain their alcohol and gambling habits.

If someone wants to work longer and harder to throw their money into gambling, it's up to them. I wouldn't do it, as I didn't do it because for me, gambling is not a life purpose but a way to relax and escape from the all-day pressure. So, I can't judge them for choosing this. As long as they don't harm others, is their choice to do more to cover their passion. For them is gambling, for others is booze, for others is trading or biking.

As long as someone gambles for fun or entertainment and uses money they can afford to lose, I respect them because I believe they are a responsible gambler. Moreover, if they are professional in working and manage their time well, so I have a lot of respect for them. I don't think many people can do something like that, and it seems like they have been through a lot of experiences in their life, so it allowing them to do everything responsibly, especially in gambling and their work. Personally, I don't feel capable of doing that for several reasons, but the main one is that I still have many responsibilities in the real world and online, so I still need more time and energy for other things. However, I think that everyone's way of life and lifestyle is different, and we all have our own ways, whatever we do, we should be on the right track and be responsible.

I have several friends like this, one of them works hard and when the weekend comes what he does is spend all his money, sometimes he wins sometimes he loses but he doesn't leave his family out, he always saves what his family has, but he doesn't save any money, since when he's not working he spends his time without money asking for loans, on the street, I don't know if I should say he's responsible since his family doesn't lack anything, but at the same time he doesn't save, all the money he has left over.

This is likely what happens to those who aren't prepared to lose. When they aren't prepared for loss, they'll be tempted to gamble even harder to win enough to recoup their losses. Gambling, no matter how hard you try, doesn't guarantee a win. They should be able to earn a living from real-world work, not gambling. However, those obsessed with winning at gambling might try harder, but unfortunately, that only makes things more difficult.

I don't judge them, but such life style is simply not for me, honestly. i could not work and have gambling as my main moving force to wake up every morning and walk towards my workplace everyday during literal months or years. I would need something completely different to push me towards a brighter future.

It could be those people you are talking about are quite young and they don't have a clear idea of what they want to do with their life yet, so they decide to work in order to fund their hobbies and other activities, lkie drinking and sports, etc. Once the grow more mature, they will realize there is much more behind work than simply gambling it all away.

At least, it seems they are committed to stay responsible, which is good to know. Hopefully, they won't get derailed by greed and pursue of money.

Well to some degree, we can justify that the reason on why some people are working hard is in order to have the necessary funds to fuel their gambling habits.

While this may be true, this can also be applicable to any kind of hobby which involves expenses. However, the problem with gambling is that money does not circulate- it either doubles or losses in the process due to the nature and risks of gambling.

So how do you see this kind of lifestyle? Do you judge them as wrong because their reason is gambling, or do you respect it since everyone has their own way of finding happiness?

The only thing that I judge is whenever their judgement is too clouded with pure justifications and rationalizations to the point that they tend to ignore their responsibilities.

For example, a gambler may choose to prioritize his gambling expenses than their obligations (e.g. family, school, health, etc.). If this is the case, then I will definitely judge them wrong and hold them accountable by all means.

I don't judge them as being wrong, because as long as they are happy with what they are doing, and if they are not struggling with anything even with their gambling activities, good for them. However, there is one thing I would like to say about this, it is that if they weren't actually gambling and doing something else as a hobby or something they like doing like maybe playing some sports or something like that, they could save a lot of money, and they might had to work less and enjoy their time more if they are overdoing it only so that they get more money for their gambling activities.

However, if they are doing their normal work, and they don't get anything extra for it, and they are responsible with their gambling activities, then I don't see anything wrong with that. Every person has the right to have a source of enjoyment and entertainment, whether it's gambling or playing video games, as long as you are enjoying yourself and aren't getting in trouble for it, you are good.

I think this is two sided, let's take the people that end up winning huge amounts of money, some of them might get demotivated to work harder because they think earning millions can come easy, gambling is capable of putting people in that mental trap. As for others they might be propelled to work harder after losing some money in gambling, this would be a motivation to get back what they lost

[Mate2237]

You are assuming which is not a good one because you are insinuating that gambler's who work is doing so for the purpose of fueling their gambling escapes which I don't totally agree with you what you should know is that gambling is not a job so you don't expect people not to work simply because they are gambling infact any gambler you see working is a responsible gambler who doesn't depends his destiny on gambling but is taking time to work.



Gambling has no guarantee of bringing money to anyone that is the reason why gambling should just be a passive thing that should be done by any one who is really serious about life because depending on gambling is a visa to poverty

A person who works solely to finance gambling cannot be considered a responsible person. Quite the opposite, a person who works solely to finance gambling is considered irresponsible. This person can be considered addicted to gambling. This person needs to test themselves, go some time without gambling. If they can do this, then it means they are not addicted. But if they can't, then they are addicted. Considering the fact that they have a job solely to finance gambling, then it means they cannot stop gambling. The chances of losing their job and selling everything to finance gambling are very high.

So how do you see this kind of lifestyle? Do you judge them as wrong because their reason is gambling, or do you respect it since everyone has their own way of finding happiness?

I judge them because it is a bad path and it will harm them a lot as well as everyone close to them. I hope they see this very early and get treatment, because this is an addiction.

Nobody made me a judge over anyone. And how anyone has chosen to live their lives and find happiness is none of my business. It only becomes my business if that happiness is derived at the detriment of other people. That's wrong and I'll be a judge in that case. As for gambling just do what makes you responsibly and you will find happiness otherwise it is going to be a mirage.

[purple_sparkles]

I think that gambling, just like a good vacation or other things that bring us pleasure in life, motivates us to take action and to look for ways to earn more, since all of this requires money. And if you want to take part in it directly rather than just watch from the sidelines, you simply have no other options you look for and use every opportunity to make money.For example, I just came back from a great vacation. I stayed at a nice hotel that had a casino with an interesting show as entertainment for its guests, and the desire to relax in such places more often and for longer only pushes me to look for ways to increase my income.

[len01]

If it's about happiness, I'd respect him for his good work responsibilities. But if it's about the future, I'd blame him. The mindset of working hard is great for the sake of a better future and a better life. But if it's done solely to fund gambling, it's like slowly digging one's own grave. It's as if someone works hard to make someone else's dream come true. But when they receive their paycheck, they simply spend it on gambling without thinking about other things like saving for retirement. That's an act not worth emulating.

[Su-asa]

It's obvious that those people don't just focus on recovering from their losses through gambling, they actually try to recover from their losses through other means which is better than trying to recover from gamble. But from what you have said, I actually think they are gambling to make money but if they lose they don't chase their losses through gambling. It's good to gamble responsible by not Chasing your losses but it's wrong to gamble to make profits.

There are cases when we need to put informations straight, it is despicable and unethical if the reason for working hard is subjected to the course of gambling. Anyone behaving is such manner is already an addict and needs to know the truth. I have to judge their action, the flow of income channels back to the casino, beyond doubt the house with the higher edge takes back all the money, course of working hard becomes meaningless with no lasting benefit.
