Gambling is just for fun

[leonair]

Most people think that gambling is a serious thing but becoming too serious about it will only put you into depression which most people don't realize at early stage.
Gambling is supposed to be fun because enjoying it will make you realize that it's one of the fun things to do in life because it makes you test your IQ probability and statistics for me it's meant to be fun
So taking gambling serious is a one way ticket to depression too.

It is a common question whether gambling is for fun or not. Everyone believes that gambling is just for fun but very few people can follow this. For those who have a lot of money and do not need to change their financial situation by winning money from gambling again and for those who do not care about gambling profits, gambling is just fun. And for all the other people, gambling is a place where you dream of earning money easily. Among those who gamble regularly, you will not find anyone who does not dream of winning a big jackpot and becoming rich. So gambling is not fun for everyone, it is an easy way to earn income and also an easy way to destroy a person's financial situation.

Well to me gambling is actually a form of entertainment but when someone takes it as serious as war, that's when the problem starts, because no matter how much the game seems like a calculation or IQ test, at the end of the day it's all about luck and chance.
I personally find that if you enjoy gambling, it's fun you can laugh with friends, and get a little excited but when someone thinks it's going to change their life disappointment is right at the door.

You are right.... Many people think that gambling is just fun. But most gamblers gamble to make money. However, if I have a lot of money, gambling is just a game for me. A way to  have fun. Or even if  I spend a very small amount of my income on gambling, gambling can be considered fun. But if I invest a large part of my  income in gambling, then my goal will definitely be to make money. I will not want to lose money . In this case, gambling cannot be  considered just fun. Gambling is considered fun by those who have a lot of money  or who do not spend a large amount of money on gambling.

It should be for fun in the first place. Unfortunately, it was a different scenario than we see. It is no longer a fun thing anymore but rather some sort of money business and more about revenge. It is sad to say that only a few gamblers find this fun, while the majority consider this a resource. They were gambling beyond their means and budget.

I already stopped believing that this will be put into reality because with the huge numbers of gamblers who are addicted, that simply tells us that gambling is not a fun thing anymore.

You are right, every gambler dreams of becoming rich by gambling. And as long as he is addicted to gambling, he cannot realize how much money he is losing and how much he is suffering because of it. To tell the truth, I myself was also addicted to gambling and felt these things. I shared one of my stories in this forum. I was very addicted at that time and I used to gamble constantly behind everyone's eyes and I gambled a lot in front of my wife and behaved badly with my family after losing in gambling because at that time it is very difficult to control myself and one cannot control one's emotions. So I would say that gambling is not a place of fun, it is a place of human emotions.

Lets try as much as possible to accept the fact that gambling is just for fun, we cant pretend to be a gambler and still yet not understand the purpose this was meant for, that is why we could be having mix reactions as with gamblers because their expectations and different from each other as to what they have accepted gambling to be, because to some, it goes beyond having fun, their life depends on it, which is wrong.

Not only losing depression, but also losing money when you’re taking gambling seriously, you are tempted to add money that you cannot afford to lose, and you are also tempted to chase losses.

All the bad things about gambling start when you take gambling seriously; gambling should be for fun, that’s what financial experts and well-being coaches tell people, if you deviate, you will be in trouble of losing money and your mental health.

Losing money to the house would mostly cause depression when gamblers fail to gamble with their spare cash, financial experts were wise enough to counsel gamblers concerning that but many gamblers are too greedy to comprehend, so it's their cup of tea if they lose an important money and it leads them to depression. For instance, those who would use their tuition fees, rent bills or funds outside their discretionary fund for gambling , they're the ones who would likely get depressed when they lose.

There is what we call unnecessary risk, I think that is what your trying to say, I do not not know why people risk much in everything, there are some risk I see as risk taking to too far to very far, do not know the mindset of those that uses the money they kept for important things to gamble, there has never been a time that we heard or anyone said gambling is certain but when I see risk some gamblers take in gambling, I do ask myself if am actually a gambler because I don't near these guys, some person can use everything they have to gamblea and when you advise them to gamble they wey you do, their response will be, no risk, no big returns, as if they are sure of what will happen next, I know for sure that majority of gamblers that got depressed caused it for themselves and that is as a result of their irresponsible gambling habits.

Unfortunate as it may be, many gamblers don't even know that gambling is supposed to be fun. They take gambling more seriously, bringing their emotional being to it, that any loss they make in gambling they take it to their heart(they feel pained). You know why, because they bet with big money.

However, if the majority of gamblers would visualize gambling as fun, all these depressions we learn of from some gamblers we won't be seeing happen that much. It will be few cases we will learning from

Whatever you do anything it is better to do it with attention and seriousness. Although luck plays a significant role in winning gambling games most of the time, you should focus on the possible wins because gambling involves the risk of losing money. So I do not agree with you that gambling should not be taken seriously. When you bet you should bet on the relevant teams after checking the information about them. If you bet on that team based on your skill, then the chances of that team winning will be much higher. So to win, you must take gambling seriously so that the number of losses can be reduced relatively and the number of wins can be increased.

Although gambling is for fun, after a certain period of time it is not limited to entertainment because over time skill increases or the amount of losses can increase or once win you create a mindset to win continuously. That is why if you are a regular gambler, gambling should be considered seriously.

[JeffBrad12]

Basically Gambling is an entertainment. It's being used for fun purpose. However, things totally changed when people treated it as a way to double their money or become the next millionaire. So they gambling seriously with the hope to turn their hundreds USD to be tens thousands of USD or even million.
This is startnig to change the perspective of gambling. These days many treated Gambling as a way to make you rich instead of playing for fun even some used it as their job.

Beside that the depression came to the gamblers raising from their dopamine that's destroying their brain. If they can limit it, they might never feel depressed. Even after they lose some bucks.  

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

This is true, I do also feel that gambling is for fun because being a successful gambler on the long run is based on luck, it's not a sustainable source of income that one can be sure of receiving a specific amount of profit all the time but some people are just lucky to win a huge amount most of the time and if they are reasonable enough they can make good use of the money to become wealthy but most gamblers even after winning a huge amount still remains poor since they can not make good use of the money they have won. I now take gambling as a source of fun but I'm not against those who wants to take it as a source of income, if they are lucky, better for them.

Coming from a newbie? Are you a newbie or this is an alternative account? Because it is rare for a newbie to accept that gambling is just for the fun of it, I expect you to ask how gamblers will win if they already accept that gambling is for fun.

You will do fine for yourself, because the last thing you want to take very serious is gambling, many people believe that if you are serious with your gambling activities you will open the luck door for yourself, as if this is all it takes.

When you have no control over gambling there is nothing you can do about it, the only thing left is to have a great time having fun using small amount of money.

Not only losing depression, but also losing money when you’re taking gambling seriously, you are tempted to add money that you cannot afford to lose, and you are also tempted to chase losses.

For instance, those who would use their tuition fees, rent bills or funds outside their discretionary fund for gambling , they're the ones who would likely get depressed when they lose.

When the limit is crossed and the losses are too great, that's when the real problem starts. I agree with you that when the tuition fee, rent, or family emergency fund is being played with, and then when he loses that money, it is very negative for him. Because he cannot accept this loss in any way, because he needed that money which he must pay, but when he loses it, it forces him to make wrong decisions. Because at this time he loses his logic under the pressure of recovering his losses, he makes very wrong decisions, which makes the situation worse.

[purple_sparkles]

I’m ready to repeat to anyone, anytime, that money should be earned in other ways. Gambling is far too slippery a path. Play, have fun, test your luck, but only for entertainment, never for income. There are so many people who thought they were smarter than the casino and ended up in such deep debt holes that they can’t even understand how to get out.

Do you really not take gambling seriously? Then I think you have no illusions about money. Because those who gamble for fun or for profit. Everyone loses some money, thereby suffering financially. From this it can be said that if one takes gambling seriously and considers the economy, then at least one will lose less. But there is a lot of thinking power at work here, which once weakened will upset. But gambling for fun and losing money is not a problem, that's right. Because they play creatively and don't consider the loss side. I don't think gamblers gamble just for fun.

Taking gambling so seriously will so seriously land someone into so serious problems that will need so serious attention. Taking gambling so seriously is the ill look that gambling and gamblers has in different society (like irresponsibleness).

Growing up, it was a thing of shame that your person is a gambler because of gamblers attitude to life as a result of taking gambling so seriously.

If gambling is handled as just gambling (fun) and not something serious, all the social ill about gambling and from gambling wouldn't be, like indiscriminate spending and other irresponsibleness.

Many people consider gambling to be just a trivial matter, but they are not aware that the addiction they face will eventually destroy them in their lives for the future, so many are tempted by big wins so that they are not aware that the wealth they have is gone without a trace and this is something we often find in society, so never think that gambling is just looking for fun but everything is destroyed without awareness and some of them even commit crimes in order to get capital for the fight that is lured to make them suddenly rich, so in this case we must have maximum awareness.

Since winning the game is not guaranteed when the house is always favored in every game play, the only way to avoid the negative aspects of gambling is to never view it as a way to make money.
In all honesty, every human is deemed to take anything involving money seriously.
I don't see anything wrong with taking gambling seriously, and how are we going to succeed if we don't?
We just need to be careful not to be avaricious, play with the money we think we've already lost, never go over our budget, and avoid using it as a source of income.

[Peanutswar]

It depends on how you will treat the gambling other people seeking gambling as a form of fun and entertainment which is good to them gives fun every time they made a game but the reality is its only for the people who are capable to play game because its a quite expensive hobby only people who have a budget. Now others are treating gambling as a form of source of income they used their capabilities, luck, and skills as an advantage to extra money.
