Do you think you could become Rich through gambling?

[Silikiem]

It’s true that people have gotten rich from gambling either by winning lotteries, parlays, or even regular bets, however, I have also seen a pattern of gamblers losing it all after winning big. So the question is not really about if people can get rich from gambling but rather about whether they can maintain their new found wealth.

I agree with you, here basically gamblers cannot control themselves, they cannot enjoy the wins they achieve, they cannot hold on to any wins, even after winning they keep playing for bigger wins with those wins, that is, there is no limit in their game, and this is why they can never achieve anything good from gambling, rather they face more losses.

I don’t think they lose their winnings to gambling. I believe they blow all that money on luxurious stuff and reckless spending. They don’t invest wisely because frankly they never imagined they would make that much money, and even worse, they don’t mind spending it all because they think they will be lucky and win big again.

From my own experience in gambling I think that every true gambler spends most of their money on gambling, it’s difficult to see a real addicted gambler buying luxurious stuffs like expensive clothes, shoes, phones etc. as a matter of facts this gambler’s you barely see them spend the money on themselves but they spend more on gambling, they look so tattered just like someone who is a smoker, he prefers to use his money to buy smoke than to buy food and eat. A smoker could be lacking food in his house but you’ll not see him lack smoke, the same thing is applied to gambling, a gambler will prefer to use the money he’s supposed to use for either getting a nice hair cut and buy clothes to gambling.

I think it is wrong to think that those that do spend all there money on gambling are true gambler. For sure, an addicted gambler hardly spend money on any other thing aside gambling. They can barely stay a day without gambling, all there thinking is fixed on gambling. An addicted gambler is enslave to gambling such that all they think about is gambling.

I agree with you, a responsible gambler will not give too much importance to gambling. The only time responsible gamblers gamble is when they just need entertainment, besides they are always busy with their own work, they never think too much about gambling, but this is where an addicted gambler drops everything and only thinks about gambling. This is the difference between an addicted and a responsible gambler, but an addicted gambler will end up putting himself in a lot of trouble, whereas a responsible gambler can limit himself to just entertainment without any major losses.

You are right, some will say once they hit the jackpot, they will stop gambling and use the money to invest in something that will be of great benefit to them and when they are lucky to win big, they will still give all back to gambling and this will break them down seriously which they will be in a devastated mood that can deprived them of their happiness and can also affect their financial aspects. That is why having self-control in their lives is very important because it plays a vital role in gambling which helps to prevent one from getting addicted and also to remember that gambling is a game of fun and not a paycheck game.

To be fair, that is your personal experience and I can’t argue with that either. But what I would disagree with is the assumption that a “true gambler” is someone who spends all their money on gambling. You can gamble and still have nice things for yourself, famous people like Floyd Mayweather, and Michael Jordan have been known to have a gambling problem but they aren’t doing any of the things you mentioned above.

Responsible gambling should be the goal in the lives of every gambler and staying disciplined about it, is important and necessary as it supports one in doing the right thing and to also find easy in adhering to the rules of gambling. And, also responsible gambling gives one the reasons not to chase after losses, which will prevent further damage and losses, especially if things are not really going the way they thought it to be.

[Versatile_choice]

Being Rich through gambling usually happen unannounced, and you must not even have that feeling of becoming rich through gambling inside of you because it is as if gamble also read minds. there was a time when I set a target and I said something that after I achieve this target that I will not think of gambling again that very day, After that it was as if I have just pushed my luck away because all my attempt keep failing then I decided to quit, if you really want to enjoy gambling just keep your mind away from anything profit or don't make any expectations.

One truth jackpot many gamblers has refused to accept is that there is no ending to gambling if you finally hit the jackpot. There was one story of a gambler that I read, he won a jackpot, millions of dollars. Instead of the poor man to invest and use the rest to feed himself and his dog cos I learnt he doesn't have a wife, he use the money to gamble back thinking there was another opportunity waiting for him, he eventually loss everything back to casino.

It's hard for some people to accept, sometimes maybe some people in gambling just feel like they are special in gambling when in reality they are not special, they are just lucky to hit the special number and won. Any person like them could have become winner but they think the universe surround them and they are the special ones. If there is specialty in gambling, I'm sure many of us will be swimming in money by now but that's not the case.

It's wrong to think about it that way. If any gambler is spending all their money on gambling without withholding themselves, it's already a sign that they are addicted to gambling and such a person an addict and not a true gambler. Someone who should be called a true gambler is who understand the risk, know how to manage it treat gambling the way it ought to be treated and not to be under pressure all the time to gamble, we should be able to separate an addicted gambler, responsible gambler, and who a true gambler is.

Being a responsible gambler gives one the opportunity to stay principled because it takes one that is principled to be able to adhere to their gambling plans so as to suit their lifestyle. Areasponsible gamble is always conscious of their presence in the casino as they keep to time and budget as made for a game day session, and once they exceed it, be it in a winning streak or losing streak, they follow their rules, and they keep to it. Chasing losses is very far from them as they do not play to lose to the extent of losing that much to want to recover their losses.

The best preventive control of the game involves establishing a certain amount of money prior to the onset of gambling to avoid heavy losses. Decent gamblers consider the money to be a source of amusement cost, but not in venturing into quick riches. Once the budget constraint has been crossed, quitting the activity willingly shows that one has not lost his or her head. In that way, the lifestyle of the family and its financial base are not shaken by gambling since the strategy is used.

That certain amount established could be termed your gambling budget because that is what guides your stay in the gambling house, but there is something I have noticed about some gamblers, and this is also a live witness and experience. Some gamblers tend not to have self-restraint whenever they seem to be losing and also winning, they seem to become more emotional when both occurrences are in play, making them lose their budget focus, and that shows their level of adherence to their own rules, which is very disappointing. My friend does this, and I have been able to talk him through, and happy he is able to stick to his budget plan whenever he gambles, and he is very happy about the timely intervention for him.

There is nothing wrong in what you are saying about gambling, most entered with trust and believe gambling is a life changing scheme but ends up going back from grace to grass.

It's very true because, in part, when you have good results at the casino, a person might think that and believe it, The bad thing is that when reality hits, or the harsh reality, all that comes crashing down, and that's one of the biggest disappointments you can have Besides, counting the money you've lost is tough However, it's good that we talk about this in these times because there will always be a way to warn people and do things right.

You know most people do have that belief and trust that immediately they go into gambling they would change their life through gambling, there is nothing wrong with but as you said. It very that easy for people to feels so disappointed while gambling because their plans aren't coming forth and anyone who is gambling on a regular basis with hope for them to make a life changing opportunities always got disappointed at last due to either desperacy. For this, it's always good to warn people about gambling and how they think and handle gambling itself.

The few gambling addicts that I know personally have never achieved anything meaningful since I've known them and I won't be surprised that almost all the addicted gamblers will be like them. The reason is quite simple it's not as if they don't win big sometimes but their greed and addiction wouldn't let them to remember to achieve anything meaningful with their wins, they will use everything to gamble in the believe that they will win many times more. The main reason that will make them not to achieve anything is that they are always chasing loses to recover everything that they have lost which is a herculean task to fulfill. It is possible to get rich through gambling but don't depend on it to start gambling irresponsibly, always use amount that you can afford to loose.

You are right. I will add another point to this. Even though they set a fixed amount of money for entertainment, many gamblers go beyond that limit because they cannot control themselves. They often cannot control their emotions at any stage, whether they win or lose. If they lose, they think that they will win in the next bet and can recover their losses. Even if they win a bet, they think that they will win again in the next bet. These uncertain aspects of winning or losing give rise to a thrilling feeling in gamblers and they repeatedly exceed their allocated funds.

Very possible that one should can become rich by gambling, but not compulsory that every Gambler is going to become rich by so doing, therefore we should expect the best and prepare ourselves for the worst when it all about gambling, it is full of fun and can also be enticing to play, even though gambling is full of uncertainties which we can't predict what may come after until we are done playing.

[EarnOnVictor]

I know this is rare but the percentage of people who are gambling today have this perspective and notion about becoming successful through gambling, and of course that is very possible but is very rare to happened, but guess what?

I will always say that the wrongest door to knock if you want to become rich is gambling. The mindset alone is ill let alone trying to actualise it. Gambling can make you rich, no doubt, but never you put your mind in it or make it your income source, as this could trigger desperation, and in desperation, gambling will almost certainly disappoint anyone who puts their mind in it.

It's better engaged with a neutral mind, and with the mind of independent passive income, no matter how good you are. With this mindset, if you become rich without putting your mind in it, fine. It's actually the best.

Expecting to get rich overnight through gambling can be a long-time dream and desire of many people, but its reality is very disappointing, you can get rich very fast by gambling but the percentages are very low, I think that 1 out of 100 people can be successful by gambling, even if gambling in the long run it will lead to inevitable loss. Gambling should be a form of entertainment, but expecting to earn money from gambling and become rich is a misconception of many people, gambling can change the life of very few people. Even if you look around, it is very difficult to find a successful gambler who has changed his life.

[abaeze]

The most important thing is that I gamble at least once a week and I don't feel any regret whether I win or lose. I don't believe that I will get rich by gambling but every time I play I hope that I can get the jackpot.
If someone gambles with a certain amount of money from his discretionary income, then I think that is his personal freedom if it is not for entertainment but one thing must be kept in mind that someone should not gamble with debt to get rich, if he plays like this, he can put his family in danger.
