It very important to understand that gambling is not for the purpose of becoming more wealthy because there is no guarantee or possibility for that to happen. People can choose to gamble per their wish, but it shouldn't be on daily basis, in order to prevent it from becoming a habit. Our time is too precious to be waste on something that is not tangible. Expecting so much from gambling is where the major problem lies, and the majority of gamblers make several unthinkable decisions as the result of that.

When you are gambling with the expectations to make something out of it, like the case of your cousin he took gambling to be a means of getting quick money before his salary arrives but ultimately he never know exactly whatawait him on the long run like tendency of getting into addiction and the rest of that, so for a reasonable person gambling shouldn't be anything other than just entertainment and fun, aside that you are risking your money and mental well-being chasing the money in gambling.

I agree with you because most persons go into gambling without an aim, which those aims can either be that you are gambling for fun and entertainment while the other might be that you are gambling for survival, this two can't work together i.e, you can't be gambling for fun and still be gambling for profit too, the best way to go about it as you have said is just to bet for fun and entertainment so you don't stand to regret your actions and become addicted.

Gamblers should understand that they can't get rich from gambling because this is a game of luck and it's not easy to win and get rich overnight and as such it requires patience and timing, those that have a Job should be serious with it and maybe gamble as side hustle . gambling has affected many people emotionally and mentally so those involved in it should be careful and bet with what they can afford to lose and also see it as a game of fun not where to make quick money.

I agree with this because gambling really affects a person's relationship with time. When he begins to see it as a means to wealth. They stop seeing gambling as a pastime or a potentially profitable venture and start to miss out on hours of their time that they might never get back and in the process of their seeking a “big win” they end up losing even more. Time begins spinning as a way to assess odds, wait for games to be played, try to catch up on losses and adjust to the next wager. There addiction slowly takes root. Not just money, but valuable time that could have been spent working, on the family, or growing oneself.

I often see players make the mistake of believing they can make money gambling and diving headfirst into it, but ultimately, they have nothing but a wild belief in their success and luck. I think we need to think more realistically and stop assuming it will work, critique our theories, identify weaknesses, and understand what we'll do if we don't achieve our goals. Unfortunately, almost no players think about this, so we need to learn, gradually gain experience, and move toward our goals. And the most important thing is not to give up if we lose; no professional has achieved success without losses.

Those who gamble with the hope of getting rich may be newbies or do not know anything about gambling. Most gamblers gamble to make money but very few gamblers are involved in gambling with the hope of getting rich. They are hoping to win the jackpot but I would say this is a kind of foolish decision. Deviation from the main purpose of gambling increases the amount of losses and frustration among gamblers. The purpose of gambling is to get entertainment. Those who use gambling to make money gamble uncontrollably and eventually become addicted.

Nowadays gambling has been the only remedy for those who are really losing hope in life because they felt that through gambling life becomes easier for them but without knowing that gambling is another bad way to engaged oneself as it’s influences people badly.
We shouldn’t be that overly looking at it as the best way to come out of poverty or becoming successful in life.

This is very true, nowadays many people are turning to gambling more and more due to depression, unemployment, financial stress or failure in life instead of thinking about working harder, they think that this may be an easy way to earn money quickly and through this they can change their position overnight, but basically this never happens, instead of reducing their financial stress, they face more financial losses. They should understand that we have to face losses more than winning in gambling, but they do not have this understanding, and because of this they end up in a very bad situation.

If we do not become addicted then maybe we will not have such a mind or we will never play to get rich. Because every person has a very small goal but once they become addicted they cannot control themselves and then start playing aggressively for more profit. But if every person can control themselves and if they can stop themselves at the right time then they will definitely be able to protect themselves from facing losses. Although gambling depends entirely on luck, still many times we face losses while playing aggressively after making a profit or playing for more profit.

You can't make money with gambling, you can only spend time losing money
ultimately you decide how much you want to lose essentially
you can lose little by spending time
you can lose a lot, spending the same amount of time and then regret having put all this money into it

Yes, it depends on you how much you are willing to lose, how you manage the game and how much you will face losses. Many people initially think that gambling may be a way to earn easy money, but with time they realize that the potential for loss is much greater than the potential for profit, but this is only realized when they have already suffered a lot of losses. So here you have to decide for yourself how you will accept the results here. If you can be careful on your part, then you can stay away from big losses here.

When this whole picture is so bad in a person where depression is what points to everything going wrong because things are always more difficult, that's when you should be most aware that gambling is only to be done when you have the money prepared to lose. Those who start inventing other things or inventing what everything can lead to are something that is not feasible, things don't work that way.

People see gambling as means of making money, today I know people that won money because they bet that Arsenal will win Crystal palace and as well bet that Manchester City were going to lose to Aston Villa. All these looks sweet and all that but were you will know that it's not good until you check people that have loss all their life to gambling, instead of betting little amount to gambling, they put all of their money to gambling and have nothing left.

Another problem is with many gamblers is because of their high expectations, the fact that you win today doesn't mean you will continue to win. It's not done that way. You can win today and still lose the next one, there is no assurance in gambling, there is just luck and you don't know when the luck will come. So play nice and enjoy the time but don't expect it will always come in your favour, it's not a place to make a stable living even if you are too good at it.

Basically gambling is a form of game that tends to be played by rich people. They gamble to have fun and escape the stress of the world of work, but then the poor person who is interested in it thinks this is a reasonable place to change his fate. An improper approach to gambling will ultimately only plunge a gambler deeper into addiction, making it increasingly difficult for them to escape the cycle. They are fully aware that they have spent vast sums of money on gambling, but they regularly return and try to recoup their losses and hoping to turn their fortunes around.

Becoming rich through gambling is not impossible, but a professional gambler would do so in a land-based casino using skill-based games. There are very few gambler who can truly win a big amount of money at online casinos, especially in luck-based games. Online casinos are a great place to have fun, not to easily turn the poor into the rich, even if that has happened in the past.

Well perhaps it all comes down to the psychology of financial interest. Though I don't see gambling as a bad thing, because if you actually observe our sole existence it all comes to taking a risk which is just the nature of man. Still I believe how one makes their money is a choice based on which pays better... though there are risks in gambling so as they are profit perhaps that's something your cousin understands fully well......

​That said, gambling isn't a job and spending so much time on it is a risk which I mentioned earlier a risk of getting addicted. So yeah psychologically, gambling has its good and bad side it all depends on the individual's mind status that's all......

What do u all think ? Psychology is my fav topic . Everyone has its own opinion regarding gambling and psychology and i also love to read your replies as well. Because in the end my main focus is to learn from experienced peoples here. And i respect your opinions as well.

There is usually a kind of mentality that comes with gambling and it can be different for every gambler. It depends on if you are the type that wins or that who lose. But the worse mistake you can make in gambling is considering it as something that can sustain you in life. It doesn't not have such potential to be a source of income because it's gains are uncertain. You might end up losing everything just to make one win which will not be able to account for any of your losses.. your friend to me lost interest in his job because he probably saw gambling as a short cut to success, which gambling isn't. It may seem like you've gotten a hang of it but when the fall begins to come in, you will begin to regret your actions..

It very important to understand that gambling is not for the purpose of becoming more wealthy because there is no guarantee or possibility for that to happen. People can choose to gamble per their wish, but it shouldn't be on daily basis, in order to prevent it from becoming a habit. Our time is too precious to be waste on something that is not tangible. Expecting so much from gambling is where the major problem lies, and the majority of gamblers make several unthinkable decisions as the result of that.

the biggest mistake many gamblers make is treating gambling like a reliable way to build wealth when in reality gambling was never designed to guarantee financial success. Some gamblers may land themselves big wins occasionally but for majority people the loses eventually outweigh the gains over a long period of time and that is why it’s not encouraging for a gambler to make gambling a daily habit because it can become addictive and cause serious emotional problems and its also at that stage that it affects not just your financial situation but also your time , focus and peace of mind . Making gambling more dangerous and less profitable for any gambler. The more you chase money in gambling the more you are exposed to failing and losing more money and that is why I also advise us to gamble with moderation and self discipline.

I disagree you can actually make money with gambling, plenty money of that, gambling has made so many people rich for life, the testimony is there to find out, because you're losing money in gambling doesn't mean others are not making money. The reason you see people playing gambling is because there is a lucky money in it. It's very hard to win in gambling and for you to win you have to depend on luck, that's why one don't have to spend so much time in gambling. It will mess up your brain and finance, in gambling smart ones stake what they're can afford to lose and they don't chase loses, once the lucky is not on their sides they quite immediately for the moment then try another time when you're free or when your have spare cash to play.

There are even many real-life stories that they bought a lottery as accident like when the cashier didn't have the change and handed over the ticket or when someone didn't have the money but tipped the waiter with their ticket and promised to share the winnings,etc.

If someone is meant to win big then they will win, no matter what and even if they didn't try to do it but in reality we can win only if we gamble that is the dilemma here and that is why most people are still gambling even if they are losing. Ideally we should not gamble for money just focus on the entertainment and treat the winnings as extra rewards.
