Gambling: for fun or to earn money?

[Penlex_Writer]

Gambling should be for fun. When you gamble to earn money you can easily become desperate and then create so many problems for yourself. When you gamble for fun, it becomes difficult to be addicted. Show me an addict and I will show you a gambler who wants to make a life from gambling.

When it comes to gambling, I think it's a bit of both – a way to have fun and possibly earn some extra cash. It's all about finding that balance between excitement and responsibility.

Personally, I see gambling as a mix of both entertainment and a potential source of income. I enjoy the excitement and thrill of gambling.  However, I approach it with caution, understanding that losses are part of the game and it's essential to gamble responsibly. Setting limits and managing finances wisely is crucial to ensure that gambling remains enjoyable without risking financial stability. Take care!

I think everything you do in a gambling place is full of risk, only a few people think that gambling places are for fun. Recently I read online media news which said that one of the best singers named Bruno Mars was in debt in gambling place. This is a real example of a rich person who cannot control his financial condition well and is addicted to gambling.

Whether a gambler considers gambling for personal enjoyment or as a means of making money that depends on the gambler's personal choice. But if gambler consider gambling as means of earning. It will definitely be a big mistake for him if he takes it for earning. When a gambler takes gambling as part of entertainment, he can enjoy gambling without human pressure. However, many gamblers may also gamble for money, requiring a higher level of skill and experience than usual. But skill and experience alone cannot make a gambler win. Along with those qualities of gambler must also have luck.

In some special gambling threads, they are conflicted regarding the function of gambling, some consider it as fun only and some consider it as a way to earn money quickly. What about you? If I myself feel gambling is a way to earn money quickly, although defeat is inevitable.

Everyone actually has their different opinions and perspective about what gambling is and what not but one thing is for sure which is the results that come after any of the way you decide to go with your gambling habits. Some results are negatively effective and can ruin you as a gambler while the other will keep you in check and I believe everyone knows what's after their actions they choose about gambling.

So many gamblers feel they can use the act to get an edge by winning quick and fast money while others play it for the passion involved especially if you are sport gambling. But thing that is supposed to pin to everyone mindset when it involves gambling should be the thought that gambling should always be done with atleast 5-10% of the gamblers income to avoid any issue when the loses come.

I agree that when it comes to gambling, finding a balance between excitement and responsibility is crucial. Finding this balance has to do with discipline and self-control. When these two attributes are lacking in a gambler then finding a balance between excitement and responsibility will be difficult. Without self-control, a gambler will find it difficult to stop gambling when he is losing or even winning. When a gambler is losing, it is a direct call to stop gambling and when he is winning it is also a call to stop and then use the profit for something more rewarding and promising.

Some gamblers who don`t have self-control and discipline are always chasing loss and this makes them lose more than necessary keeps them in a state of frustration and sometimes makes them appear melancholy. Other times, they win but refuse to stop gambling and then lose everything. In my thinking, this is the stepping stone to problem gambling and should be guided against by all gamblers.

Yeah, it should be but we can't control sometimes our emotions when we lose that is why i tried to be more discipline as to not be desperate and lose focus on gambling. I gamble not just for fun but to earn or gain profit also and yeah, a balance of both should be necessary.

Gambling for fun can make someone to become addicted by accessing sites and services which can lead to financial ruin. Governments need to find ways on balancing the need for potential risks involved in gambling.

Gambling for fun can make someone to become addicted by accessing sites and services which can lead to financial ruin. Governments need to find ways on balancing the need for potential risks involved in gambling.

Betting is exclusively for adults, which is why the government regulates all sites and only allows adults to play. As adults, you are accountable for your financial dealings; if you are unable to gamble responsibly and have allowed yourself to be ruined, it is your fault, and the government can do nothing to help you.

Gambling for fun and Money comes together; you can't do one without the other. Gambling is about making money and having fun. If you're having fun but not making money, you're in the wrong business. And vice versa.

Gambling is based on luck, you can gamble to see how lucky u are, and it is all fun, not that you don't need the money, but you just do it for fun, if you're lucky enough that day you win, and if you're not then you loose, and it's advisable to gamble with only money you can afford to loose, to avoid the risk of loosing your budget.
For me I gamble for fun, and only in my free times...

I think this mindset is what attracts people more into gambling because they have it all that gambling is a form money creation or generation where they could get quickly rich when they join gambling but to me I don't see gambling as place to catch fun rather a place to put you in a higher pressure of finance, since when they play with the little amount left with them and expect to make a huge pay out if their game plays correct but when it's lost then such person has no other fall into pressure and thinking how much he has lost or the money gone.

So, before someone goes into gambling s/he should be prepared for any lost and not to channel their blame or lost to the government because they aren't the people who asked their citizen to gamble, naturally as you said gambling is for adults and not those aren't ready to make lost or profits.

For me, gambling for fun only happens when I have extra money and dont care about winning or losing.
To be honest, Im pretty sure that most of us gamble because we need money. And we will feel that fun only after we win something.

Yes, that's not wrong, because winning will make us happier, but if we need money, shouldn't we be in a gambling place, and should we be at work? hoping luck will come to us by forcing ourselves to spend money? that was a bad move.

We can get pleasure when we win, I agree with that, but we can also get pleasure when we can enjoy gambling with the money we have prepared, or in other words we know what happens to us when we gamble.

Well, I like to be honest, I play and I bet because I want to win money, besides that is something very normal, one plays for that, the fact that the fun comes in addition is another thing, but in particular I am like that, the only thing that I do play is To relax, to de-stress and to not feel bad or get rid of all my pressure of the week are the slots, so if I don't mind losing the balance that I have for that, I usually play with 10usd or if I play with less money then I play With that, the truth is I use it as a de-stressing method, but at the same time the bets, the other casino games, I play to win.

Of course things are very different when it's about winning all the time, that's what you want, for me it's the best thing you can do but you have to accept the Designs of the game, sometimes you lose and that must be accepted.

Actually gambling should be for fun and earn money as bonuses, if priority to earn money in gambling I don't sure become easily after looking how many people loss much money with gambling. If gambling for fun and position on the winning will make us more happiness and keep enjoying with the gambling games although on losses position.
If gambling only for to earn money I don't know how bad mentality if losses much and not enjoying with how many games in gambling make us happiness.
