Just to remind y'all

[MRY]

If your goal is to make it big in gambling, I guess you don't really get the whole point of gambling. The edge is always on the house, and will always be, so if you win, that's part of the plan, they will make you win sometimes so you will be more eager to bet and expect bigger winnings, but in the end you lose a lot while making the house profitable the most.

This is a reminder that gambling isn't safe if you are here to earn a living, but if you are here for sole entertainment, then gambling is good for you. But still, gamble on what you can afford to lose to avoid bigger losses and future regrets.

One should keep in mind that gambling is created to profit the house, and it is a fact that a person can hardly avoid. Although some entertainment, it can be fun, but what we need to know is that a person has a slim possibility of becoming rich through gambling. A big danger is gambling your money that you are not supposed to lose and as a source of livelihood, it may disappoint.

Similar to your opinion, it was created for business and house is always at the edge, but indeed also if you are aiming to have some fun and have that extra spare to use, gambling can provide entertainment and for those few lucky and wise gamblers, they able to earn decently when hitting the jackpot and make really huge amount of profits, to the point that they able to change their financial capability if being wisely used.

Thank you op for reminding me, I still feel gambling as entertainment and I am still entertained, hopefully this year there will not be many losses and I can control myself better in gambling, because sometimes I lose control and forget that gambling is just luck, not about profit.

Agree overall. Gambling should always be treated as entertainment, not income. I think the real danger starts when people chase losses or set “financial goals” around gambling. That’s usually when discipline disappears. Setting limits and walking away when it stops being fun is probably the most underrated skill in gambling.

we all know this, most gamblers that play for income know that gambling isn't supposed to be for income but entertainment and yet they still do it any way...it is very important to know where to draw the line, gambling is a game of luck you shouldn’t try to use it as a way to make money...Those that try to use gambling as a way to survive end up getting addicted to it or losing more than others

I agree with the statement that betting should not be treated as a source of income or as an investment; thinking that way is reckless. However, I believe that planning and setting goals based on your budget is not wrong. You have to be fully aware that luck dictates the rules, but it's not wrong to dream, as long as you remain clear-headed in your decisions.

Given that gambling is a business, the benefits that can be obtained by players are uncertain, so if gambling is used as a source of income it will only worsen the financial situation, especially if we cannot restrain ourselves, bad things will happen.
It's true what you said, such actions are rash actions, and people who act rashly in gambling are likely to end up miserable.

I myself strongly believe in luck, because I once got a pretty big win just by capitalizing on cashback alone.

I think what everyone should prioritize more than the entertainment that you get in gambling is the discipline to control yourself and not go overboard whenever you gamble, having the control and decency to stop when you know that you're doing too much is probably the best thing that you can do especially if you want to gamble without any future problems like debt caused by going over because you have no emotional control of your gambling. Having control should take priority because when you have it in place, you will be able to have fun without the worry of going too emotional.

The honest fact is that if gambling is not entertaining to you anymore it's dangerous and you are likely addicted already. So secure your emotions this year don't go too deep.

Secure and leave when you can, and consider seeking entertainment elsewhere. If gambling is beginning to turn into some kind of unhealthy lifestyle for you, this is the advice I usually give to my friends: even if you consider it to be a place where you can make a little money, never take it too seriously, and don't allow it to get to the level where you will be deeply obsessed by it.

Simple as it should be, yet, a lot of persons don't know how to protect their emotions from getting in the way of them enduring a healthy gambling lifestyle. Making money from gambling isn't flawed but assuming it as a means of income where a person has to devote his time, funds and resources into gambling as though it's his last option to breakthrough into riches then it can be terrifying. One thing is to try to advice people about gambling, and it's another thing for them to take the advice.

Everyone know well all those reasons that lead to huge failures, but still ignore greed factor, chase losses, try to become rich by gambling or think its their money source. I think that tells us that reminds dont work. People understand everything, but still repeat same mistakes everyone talk about or do. Even I know about all that, but one moment will do unnecessary and extra bet. Nobody can solve magic of gambling.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

we all know this, most gamblers that play for income know that gambling isn't supposed to be for income but entertainment and yet they still do it any way...it is very important to know where to draw the line, gambling is a game of luck you shouldn’t try to use it as a way to make money...Those that try to use gambling as a way to survive end up getting addicted to it or losing more than others

You know that, lately, I have come to terms with the fact that anyone can use gambling to source for profit but let the person not depend only on gambling as the source of income, let the person have other sustainable source of income and let the person also have self discipline to remain successful, if all that factors are kept, the person won't have gambling problems.

Well, greedy people would keep deef ears to this particular statement, even poor people who feel that gambling can be seen as a mean of securing financial freedom won't take such advice seriously, but in the right sense, what you've just said is a fact and If people can abide by them, then there won't be much gambling problems. I wonder why folks take something that is won through luck as a major source of income and expect to succeed through it, the fun fact is that you can be lucky to win on your first trial but lose all the rewards you won if you're not careful.

One thing is to try to advice people about gambling, and it's another thing for them to take the advice.

In addition to protecting their emotions, they also cannot control them. This makes them forget the risks, but they may remember them only to set them aside because they are more concerned with the profits. What you have explained is correct; making money from gambling is not wrong, but the mistake lies in when gambling is considered a sure way to make money, while others place all their hopes on gambling as a scheme to get money quickly or view it as a way to get rich quickly.

Given that the odds of losing are higher than winning, it is not advisable to dedicate all your time and money to gambling. Devoting everything to gambling does not guarantee victory but rather ensures defeat. Therefore, if we both enjoy gambling, it is good to remind each other of these limits.

not everyone is convinced that they can take gambling as an entertainment only without thinking about making money from it...i also had rhis thought when I was still a beginner, I always asked myself how would gambling be enjoyable if we don't chase profits but after getting some experience...the more mature you get you'd realise that it is possible to gamble for fun and it is the best thing to do

[danadc]

There is no doubt about it, you have to be very mature to accept gambling as entertainment. Those who think that gambling is for getting rich or generating income are mistaken that's not how it works That's why we must be increasingly responsible with casinos, betting houses, and how we manage our money.

[Perfectbaby]

The worst mistake a gambler could do is to take gambling as a path way to become successful so easily without them knowing what they are doing, and of course gambling is good but shouldn't be taking for money making rather should be subjective to entertainment. Although many people aren't seeing this part because they felt that anytime they can walk away if gambling aren't favoring them anymore, but what they don't also know that when have spent a lot gambling and they loses it, to quite at that moment could be very hard for them because they wouldn't be that willing to lose it all just like that without making any profits to gained back what they had already lost initially.

Yes, you can really enjoy gambling or play it for fun as long as the money you bet on is the money you can only afford to lose and not the money that you will use for other things. The only time gambling becomes risky is because of players who can't control their emotions and betting their money that is not available to use for gambling. But if you know how to control it, you will enjoy it. gambling sometimes more often, it wins when you are not pressing on pressure in money that you use for betting .
