If gambling where the only alternatives would you gamble?

[Cgrexp]

If gambling becomes the only means of livelihood, I believe everyone will definitely become gamblers. To those who are already gamblers, they are already okay with the system. But to those who are not gamblers, adapting to this situation will be very difficult for them, though they could cope with time.
I feel gambling being the only source of survival would be so frustrating. the reason is because, gambling has not been an easy way of making money, some have vowed never to gamble any longer because of the frustration that gambling has brought to them. So, if gambling becomes the only source of income, life will definitely become so miserable for people.

It is difficult to live a healthy life with uncertainty of income. And if someone depends on gambling for his livelihood, it is completely dependent on luck. Due to which, financial uncertainty, debt and mental stress will naturally arise. Gambling never forces anyone to play. A person  person can be influenced to play gambling. And the decision to play is entirely up to the individual. So if someone loses, then the responsibility is also the individual's own. So if someone chooses gambling as a source of income despite the uncertainty, then he will be responsible for it later if he loses.

It will certainly be tough on everyone, as some people don't like gambling, as they see gambling as a game that makes one to go insane and gambling as a means of survival will really make their lives difficult and this will be an easy way for most people to become addicted to the game, as they won't have any other excuse. Obviously, gambling will be for the best of everyone if it remains as a game of fun and entertainment, as that's the only way most people lives won't be destroy.

Very rarely also in my opinion there are people who really like to gamble and have a habit of calculating the losses they experience, more people who gamble only focus on the winnings they have to get and this makes many cases happen about someone who is addicted to gambling.

And this notion of gambling as a source of income is not at all correct and not recommended, because when this is applied in the mindset then the destruction will most likely occur either sooner or later.

But yes if gambling becomes the only alternative to profit then everyone will do it, I don't imagine this is the case.

When somethings happen, some people don't really have a choice but to just tag along, not because they are happy doing that but they don't really have any other option. That is why when gambling, one should have the intention that gambling is not built to be a means for them to sort out their bills, as that will basically cause destruction in their lives, keeping it as game its the right way for one to enjoy the game, as to rely on it won't be enjoyable and will hurt and cause them pains.

Well if gambling becomes the only means of survival, it will be difficult initially, but with time it will no longer be frustrating as you think. The beginning of everything is usually difficult, but as Time goes on you will find a way to cope with the situation. There are situation worster than gambling but people find solution to it, so gambling is not exempted from those most difficult situation we never thought of escaping. Those that said they can never gamble just Said so because they have option but if it was the "only option" they will have no choice than to follow it.

I still can’t picture that scenario in my head honestly,how would a game of luck becomes an individual’s only means of survival,even those set of gamblers that always claim to be experienced gamblers probably haven’t thought of making gambling a source of income.If you’re rooting for gambling to always be on the winning side then you honestly don’t know what gambling is.People that would want to make gambling their source of income should get ready for encountering more losses than wins because the chances of winning in the long term is nothing but an unimaginable thought.

You’d be surprised how some people think.
But the truth is that,  the moment that someone begins to consider gambling as their only source of income or survival, then it’s a clear indicator that they are already taking a wrong turn, a part that would most possibly lead them into addiction. Just as you said, even those who are considered to be professional gamblers still have their normal jobs and source(s) of survival and thus won’t have to depend on gambling. That’s not what gambling is about.

basically gambling is a game of entertainment but most people who is intro gambling misunderstood gambling and took gambling as a means of surviving, so that is the problem we are having in gambler, we should not misunderstood that gambling is entertainment and if we Focus to use gambling to sustain it will disappoint us mostly when we needed it, so I always say that we should not hope in gambling and they find another means of surviving and use gambling for kind of entertaining ourselves when we are sad but so many jobless people does not consider gambling as entertaining means..

A matter of good perspectives and not being influences by situation, though if there's no other alternative option and you really need to push yourself into it, better to have a good control over your emotions, as most of the time it's your own decision making that leads you to lose control while playing or betting, but if you have  a exemptional control maybe you'll be able to maximize your profits while minimizing the amount of your possible losses.

Those people view gambling as if those staking on it are insane, are those that sees gambling as a sin to them, i will not bother myself on those categories of people discriminating gambling because gambling has liberated so many gamblers to a better future, so if those sets of people are still thinking so low on gamblers, i don't give a damn but for focus more on how to be lucky to win and i get the point of OP but i want us not see gambling as only alternatives to survive because the addiction will be much, i support the motion that gambling should only remain gambling for funs.

Although people consider gambling as a source of pleasure, in the end, it is not limited to a source. Well, if I were to ask you why people risk their hard-earned money? I don't know what your answer would be, but if someone were to ask me the same question, I would say that people risk their money to make extra money. So I don't understand why people don't want to admit that they gamble for money. If there really wasn't a chance of winning money in gambling, we wouldn't see so many gamblers.

Hello fellas!
Just a little bit bored at night..
I want to know if there are no other sources of livelihood and we have gambling as the only means of income and people are already getting used to it, and you are not a gambler would gamble instead?
Now, this would definitely revealed those who are truly a gambler or those who just had passion for gambling and even as it turns to only means of income you wouldn't be that feeling bad because already you are well customed to it.
Of course there are some countries that bans gambling but yet there are some citizens who are still gambling either by using a vpn or Tor to access the gambling site.

It's impossible for a person to be alive and not have a source of livelihood or income, so by virtue of your question, if gambling was the only source of income that existed and the only means we could get money for our basic needs, then definitely I would have been one of those die hard gamblers that existed in that era or that city. Because there is definitely no two ways about it, as it's either you gamble and have money or you don't and starve to death. But however, it's literally not possible for gambling to be portrayed as a mess for earning source of income, due to the risk associated with gambling, and the fact that winning a bet is never always guaranteed, as you can place a bet now and still loose.

Honestly almost everyone kept claiming how gambling is just for fun but lets be honest to ourselves gambling is a drive for more money that is; we gamble to make profit not the other way round, because why on earth will someone spend their hard earned just for fun, I guess this is just another way some persons are trying to avoid being classified as a gambler there is not wrong with gambling so far we control ourselves, gamble smart, and don't get carried due to greed the desire to keep chasing wins or lose instead of resisting and taking a break. If gambling is made the only source of survival don't get disappointed everyone will go into gambling because how do will survive, unless a person has a plan B to escape which is impossible.

Gambling cannot be a sole source of income for any responsible person who has financial responsibilities that must be met for survival like food on your family's table, there is no guarantee of winning in gambling and that is why many people that sees it as such will end up being addicted to it. Because of that I think that it is better to gamble for fun because I cannot understand why somebody would depend on something that there is no guarantee of making money seriously. Let us remember that gambling is not a business where you are sure of making profit anytime you engage in it. The best strategy for gambling is to use amount that you are comfortable to lose, just gamble for the thrill of it not that you must win because you don't control the casino.

Most people have the mindset of wanting to become rich through gambling, which has made people to have another perspective of gambling and this has made so many of them to make decisions that will not be of good tides to their lives instead it will cause them more of harm.

Casinos are created mathematically so it is foolish to think of gambling as a source of income which is not sustainable for most people. In fact gambling should not be seen as a financial plan but as an entertainment where money should be prepared in such a way that even if you lose there will be no problem. Whenever people change it in the hope of profit instead of enjoyment it becomes a harmful gaming habit.

No matter how interesting gambling games and sportsbooks become so that gamblers can consider playing simply just to have fun, i bet that majority of gamblers will not stop or even take a break from gambling so long as the possibility of winning and making profit remains.

The ability to win and make profit from gambling is majorly the number one reason why so many people are gambling in the whole wide world, I bet that if casinos were to scrap or take away the possibility of winning and making profit from gambling, 99.9 percent of gamblers will stop gambling because that money was their main reason for becoming a gambler in the first place.
And let's be honest with ourselves, playing gambling games and minus the possibility of potentially winning and making money, gambling games would be the most boring games to play for entertainment.

it is not that people don't have a choice when face with challenges but rather they prefer to choose the easy part. So it is not about having an option but rather the will and determination to always strive to do the right thing even when face with difficult situations.
Yes , gambling isn't a source of income and any gambler that treats gambling as a source of income will only end up putting themselves into serious mess instead gambling should be seen as means of entertainment rather than an avenue of generating wealth.

Many gamblers are already living this reality. They have only gambling as their source of income. When you see such gamblers, you can tell that they do not look like they are doing well for themselves. That is why gamblers are often warned to have major sources of income that have no affiliation with gambling.

To respond to the question OP asked about whether we would still gamble if gambling were the only source of income available, yes, I would gamble, and everyone else would gamble. Gambling would become a major part of living because that would be the only thing that gives them money. No discrimination, just a normal way of living.

It is difficult to live a healthy life with uncertainty of income. And if someone depends on gambling for his livelihood, it is completely dependent on luck. Due to which, financial uncertainty, debt and mental stress will naturally arise. Gambling never forces anyone to play. A person  person can be influenced to play gambling. And the decision to play is entirely up to the individual. So if someone loses, then the responsibility is also the individual's own. So if someone chooses gambling as a source of income despite the uncertainty, then he will be responsible for it later if he loses.

As the name state's gambling meaning that you can not tell the outcome, gambling can not be an alternative source of income, because they is no way you can make income from gambling, gambling should be done just to have fun and not to generate anything tangible to sustain a person, life expectancy needs focused and steady income that one can plan towards and not some uncertainty like gambling.

If it were gambling, I'd only bet on slots, because they're pure luck, but I'd bet little because it's like coins, you win or lose, but you have more chances of losing because of what a casino represents. Only the casino owners can win from this, but as a gambler who knows that casinos and gambling are about luck, I'd choose that because with small bets you can win a lot of money.

I don't understand why people use gambling as a continuous profit even though they know that there are risks involved. If someone wants to use gambling as an income source, they have to win consistently. If they lose, they won't be able to meet their daily expenses. But losing in gambling is very normal. Most of the gamblers I have talked to so far and who have shared their gambling experiences have been in a long-term state of loss. Even then, some people continue to take it as an income source and continue to harm themselves. That is why gambling should never be with the hope of making continuous profit or becoming rich overnight.
