What have you achieved through gambling?

[SmartGold01]

We have been hearing people talks about how much they had made or how much they have lost while gambling. I wanna know if you gamble and win, do you withdraw the money and use it for something more productive at home? Do you spend money on your family if you eventually wine?
There are people who barely withdraw their money from the gambling site, Instead they would say they want to accumulate it till it gets to what they wanted, but at some point they wouldn't know when the casino gradually takes back their winning from the user and before such person could realize is already late. If it was you what would you do?

[Ivystar5]

Nothing but laughing or happiness for a moment! I don't think I've ever had a big win that will lead to me having to achieve something big with gambling and all the time I have had the mindset that gambling is not a way to succeed but a way to enjoy or spend your success which Luckily could bring back the amount you are using to risk into it. I don't even have enough wins to accumulateba good amount and where I leave the amount I will use to gamble I can use it to achieve something better than loss if to gambling, that alone discourage me more not to gamble at all.

Yes, I used it to pay bills when I have a good winning. Withdraw it and never look back again. Lots of gadgets too for my kids, like Ipad mini, mobile phones or even during the height of camera as I was once a frustrated camera guy and wanted it to be my hobby.

And from my experienced, regardless if it is online of offline, it's better to really withdraw your winnings right away and again, no looking back. Because once you do, then you will regret your decision to continue and not withdrawing your winnings and then thinking what you could have buy with that winning money.

I think most gamblers cannot withdraw their money after winning. Because the more they win, the more greed they have. Because of which they use that money to win more and lose it. But it is not like that in everyone's case, some can control themselves and withdraw their winnings and use them somewhere else. If I talk about myself, I always want to withdraw my winnings as soon as possible, but sometimes I can't accept it when I am too excited. And the money that I can withdraw from gambling, I often spend it on unnecessary things. So I can't use the money I win in gambling for anything permanent. And this is happening to me all the time.

[HelliumZ]

Gambling gives me temporary joy if I win the bet. It also gives me temporary sadness and pain if I lose the bet. There is nothing in gambling except temporary pleasure and temporary pain, and in between, what else can you gain from gambling except making some money and losing some money?
However, for those who have no other way to make money or have multiple sources of income, gambling is a source of entertainment or the best way to pass the time in loneliness. For them, gambling is only entertainment and one of the main tools to pass the time. But for those who have no other options or who value gambling more as a means of earning money, gambling is a source of income and they are sometimes seen regretting gambling in public places.

Not yet, haven't got that win the thousand multiplier yet lol. I think if I won thousands of dollars I will definitely use it for something that makes my life more convenient and easy and that's probably a no-brainer to every gamblers out there. I think a vacation for a day or two is not that bad. To those people who'll use it to gamble, no judgements on them but it's their decisions to make but what I want to instill is that money should be spent most of the times for convenience or you probably need to invest it as it's more wise than just keeping it on your bankrolls then gamble it.

In fact, I gamble for entertainment, not as a means of earning money. Moreover, I gamble so little that I don't regret losing money. If I calculate everything, I will find that my losses in gambling are greater than my gains. And I can easily accept these losses because I don't use gambling as a means of earning money. Anyway, above all, I can keep myself away from regrets because I accept gambling as entertainment.

[Strongkored]

I've been able to withdraw my money after winning, but I've also been unable to withdraw it, losing it because I lost control. Any active player has certainly experienced this.
I remember one of the things I used was electronic devices, and there may have been others, but most weren't physical, as they were just for fun, like traveling.

[danherbias07]

I've won big multipliers on slots many times, and what I do first is withdraw it all and buy some necessities at home. I will look for something that we badly need, something expensive that will fit the winning amount, and I will buy it. The last thing I bought was a mattress for my wife and me, and it was worth it.

It's not an achievement, but it feels comforting that somehow I get to buy something that I couldn't buy before, surprise someone, and enjoy it. Also, it gives great joy that I get to spend the money I won and not gamble it again just to lose it. It's satisfying.

[kawetsriyanto]

I wanna know if you gamble and win, do you withdraw the money and use it for something more productive at home? Do you spend money on your family if you eventually wine win?

Yep. I will withdraw the money and I will spend it for useful things. The priority is for the necessities for my family members, the remaining money may be for additional funds of investment. I'll never spend it for sharing with friends or others because I assume it isn't needed.

Indeed. Some people assume it is a kind of investment. They collect the money from the wins for some time, then they withdraw the money after reaching a certain target. This seems like a strategy for some people, but I will never consider it. Sure, this isn't a safe way because it tends to lose the money again because we probably gambles more often if we realize having big amount of money in casino accounts.


How about you, dude?

Honestly, I would not call myself a successful gambler whatsoever. I am in a net negative when comes to my win/loss ratio with casinos and bookies, so I cannot show money off.

However, I must say I have learnt a lot about gambling, betting and the laws of chances since I started to gamble online and use cryptocurrency to do it.
The losses I have accumulated are not so big and it is money I can easily live without.

Sometimes we all under-estimate the value of experience and knowledge which comes with losing some money to one's bad luck.

[OgNasty]

The main thing I would say I have achieved with gambling is epic memories of nights with friends. I don’t remember if I won or lost (I lost) but I remember a great time that can never be duplicated. Vegas or a front porch. Always a great time.

I confess that I never "realized the profit" because the amounts I won at gambling were never a significant sum.
But what I do when I win something is withdraw those crypto back to my self custoded wallet, and then the next month I do not need to deposit much money to continue playing.

I will explain better
I have a fixed amount that I bet every month, so if I lose everything, I spend the rest of the month without betting (which usually happens), if I have any profit, I use it to deposit less than the pre determined amount the following month.

That is why some gamblers keep only the base bankroll at the casino. Let's say they start playing with 50$. If at the end of the day the bankroll is at 75$, they cashout 25$, so on the next session, they will have only the 50$ available once again. They don't use profit generated to make further bets. They play only with the base bankroll all the time. If this method isn't practiced, the casino will indeed take their winnings back gradually or even at once.

In every cases, on long term you can't escape this, as the base bankroll will be also lost at some point.

Your approach indicates some form of discipline that is hardly attainable by most gamblers. Establishing a flat budget per month and setting the amount to deposit next month depending on the past performance is an ingenious approach to regulating losses and not winning. This is one of the largest error humans commit when they leave the gains on the casino floor hoping that they can expand the industry only to lose it back to the casino in due course. In my case, the greatest byproduct of gambling is the understanding of bank roll management and emotional restraint as opposed to winning huge amount of money. When I win, I would rather pull out some and consider it as money to spend and not to bet anymore.

[GreatArkansas]

I'm not really a big gambler. From my past experience, it is mostly treating my friends and family with food or alcoholic drinks.
Sometimes they don't know why I am treating them, hahahaha. Some of these friends/relatives don't even know I am gambling, that's why.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

Last night I deposit a 50USD bankroll for a few hours of relaxation. I had fun, I had some win. I manage to withdraw some before I emptied my credit balance.
Tonight We will chill with the view of City lights while eating and have some wine. Yeah, my 50 became 300.


Biggest win achieved was last year. Bought some Gold Necklace for every member of the family + earings for wifey.
Biggest down? lets not talk about it 

[bitbollo]

I would say the budget for gambling in separate containers. Of course there is a small portion that is barely "fun".
If you think... you spend many dollars daily on "fun". When you run fast with your car and spending more gas you're doing this (to be an extreme example).
The same apply with gambling...

Of course there is a portion of these funds that are allowed to "grow". This can be done in a "risk way" like trying to "double".
And this can be done in a quite way, like just risking in a low ROI low risk situation.
Most of the time "big win" doesn't come alone and requires a lot of effort and time spent... I don't see gambling as a way to make money by itself.
Earning enough to live is impossible unless you do it with an effort like any other job...

[Ever-young]

What mostly stops some gamblers from withdrawing their wins is setting unrealistic goals and targets when they gamble and no matter how many times they win or how much they win, those wins are never enough, in fact they don’t even consider it a win but rather a means to achieving their actual goal and so they kinda compound the profit they’ve already made and through it back into the casino with hopes of hitting their actual target, and most of the times this usually turns out to be disappointing, and results to leaving the casino with nothing but regrets and disappointment.

[Yaunfitda]

I once won like $3k in a slot games, the thing is that I'm down to my last money, but still continue and go and bet $10.00 a spin until I have a big multiplier and that winning is even bigger than their jackpot. And I immediately go and and it was a hand pay. I just play with small money after that, maybe around $200.00 and then just go home. First thing I do is to threat my family for a good and well deserving dinner with some close friends. And then when we go home, we had a few rounds of beer and just drink till the early morning. Basically just enjoying that money and have fun.
