If you can't persevere losses, don't gamble

I also think that to be a gambler you must be aware of the high risks involved in the activity and not think that you will get rich quick, or that it's easy money, because it isn't. I also don't advise treating it like a job, unless you work at the casino.

Oh, I can't forget those who believe it's an investment; it's not an investment, maybe of time, but not of money.

Maybe newbies could make the mistake of perceiving gambling as a source of income. This is understandable because they don't have experience and might have been misinformed. But when I see those who have been gambling for a long time suffer from psychological, physical, or mental illness because of their actions, I blame them. Greed motivates people to gamble with more than they can afford. And some of them end up going as far as borrowing to finance gambling, which leads to health problems.

There is no excuse for ignorance. Newbies dont make mistakes in perceiving gambling as a source of income. Newbies know of the uncertainty in gambling, yet they still take gambling as a source of income. That's intentional, not a mistake. In addition, greed may not be the only factor. I think some newbies are desperate people who join gambling due to the difficulties and challenges in their personal life. Some use gambling as a way to escape responsibilities, while others use it to find money to sort responsibilities desperately.

Your opinion may not be correct for all gamblers because there are actually some new gamblers on the gambling platform who imitate other gamblers and gamble in the hope of winning big. Initially, they are curious about gambling and are eager to test their luck. But later, as the number of losses increases, they gradually start to understand the real principles of gambling.

There is a concerted effort of people at every level on the gambling platform. Some know that their chances of losing are high in gambling but despite that, they gamble in the hope of entertainment. Many gamblers are aware of their responsibilities and continue to gamble regularly and some gamblers are irresponsible and addicted gamblers can be found among them.

I agree with you. gambling should never be used as an income source or a source of investment. And if someone thinks of gambling as an investment and betting , then I find it really funny. Because there are many reasons behind investing in something. There are many reasons for profit. There is existence of wealth. But there is nothing like that in gambling. Gambling is a game of luck, where profit or loss depends on luck. Where if someone is lucky, he can make a profit. However, through various types of casino games, the gambling system has been developed in such a way that it is very difficult to make a profit. It is always in a loss situation. I have seen very few gamblers who have been able to make a lot of profit by gambling for a long time and their quality of life has improved.

Gambling always entails the risk of loss, but the nature of those losses varies. Gambling games themselves are also highly diverse. Losses are inevitable, but the key issue is not the loss itself; rather, it is the opportunity to employ some form of rational strategy. In casino games (excluding poker and other card games), rational strategies either do not exist or are unknown to me. Sports betting and prediction platforms do allow for the use of rational strategies, yet even then, winning is not guaranteed.

The percentage of people who believe gambling can be a source of income is higher than those who believe it's an investment, because the first one makes more sense unless there is a casino which allows people to invest in their bankroll and get a percentage of the revenue they make, but that's a different thing. There are a lot of people who are so delusional that they believe they can constantly make money from gambling to consider it a source of income, I don't understand why they think this way because if they were to try this, they would know that it's not possible since you can't be winning all the time, so if you are winning $100, you will eventually lose more than that before you win more.

Gambling should only be considered a way to try your luck, or a source of fun and entertainment, but if you think of anything other than that, you will be ruining yourself financially and mentally as well, because most people who think they can make money from gambling usually end up getting addicted to it, and then they can't get rid of it until they lose everything they have. People have lost millions of dollars in gambling only, you can imagine what one can do with that much money, but no, they waste it on gambling only because they believed they can make more money with it.

As gamblers, we are all aware that gambling has a two ways direction either you win or you loose, that is to say, as you continue to gamble, you will not only record winning, but losses too.
Don't take gambling as your source of income because if this notion fails, you are likely to have a heartbreak. There are times when a gambler will continue in long term losses, and barely make wins, in this case it takes someone who knows about gambling or what gambling is all about to withstand such pressure, otherwise their could be negative effect on the gambler.
Not every gambler can endure losses, and when you are unable to control your emotions as a gambler even when you loose a bet, your health can be affected, or even aggression can be transferred as a result of the losses incured to family, and friends. So, it is adviceable not to gamble if your emotions can not be controlled as gambler, especially when you are at loss.

What is your take on this?

As a gambler your opponents are either going to be the casino/bookmaker or another player. The casino in particular is only interested in offering games where they make guaranteed money, as they are a business with costs and a desire for profit, so they cannot leak money constantly - that would be charity. A bookmaker has a little less control, because the events they offer odds on are outside of their control, but they can do enough analysis on datasets and work in a margin of safety that means they win more than they lose in average - it's quite a tight and competitive market though. Then you've got player, where you must simply be better or luckier than your opponent if you want to leave with their money, otherwise you hand over your own.

Unfortunately even today, after centuries of gambling, note the name, gambling not gambling work, there are many people who think that gambling can be a source of income.
Obviously this leads directly to addiction, for many reasons that we all know by now.

The difficulty in quitting gambling is that joining out of curiosity and without any prior research can lead to addiction. Once addicted, even if we're advised to stop, it's futile; no one will listen to our good advice. The most mature aspect of gambling is accepting both sides, realizing that there are winners and losers, and accepting those losses as well.

it is not difficult to quit gambling the thing is that most of us does not like to quit from gambling but if you decide to quit from gambling it will not make you much time it will not involve yourself in gambling again because sometimes what makes us to find it very difficult to Leave gambling is because we don't have any other thing that takes our time, because someone who is involved in job cannot live what is doing and there Gamble so leaving gambling is it determination and which everyone can do if you decide to leave gambling

Quitting gambling for a while is not difficult but when we want to completely stopping from gambling is much harder because the urge to gamble often comes back after some time. If we cannot control ourselves, we may start gambling again. In the end, what we need to control is ourselve when we gamble rather than focusing only on how to quit gambling because self control help us manage our losses by preventing greed, reducing impulsive or rushed decisions.

It must be emphasized that if we want to do gambling then we must be prepared to face and experience losses, because gambling losses are very inherent and there is no way to avoid them even those who have gambling experience or those who are said to be professionals do not mean they can avoid losses in gambling because after all everyone who gambles has the same chance of losing which is greater than the chance to win.
