Can gambling be taken as a profession?

[masudginanjar]

For those who don't have a real job, it seems like gambling is their last choice.
I can't say more because I see many retirees from various state apparatuses who are on the state salary but their job is gambling.
I also don't blame them because they actually use their own money to gamble and have fun, maybe today they get the Jackpot but one month later they lose every day and beat the value of the Jackpot from a month ago.

Winning consistently requires either skill or luck

Specifically, in sports betting, I don't think there is any skill that can guarantee a gambler a consistent win. Even with luck, a consistent win is still not guaranteed but then luck can always stand to ensure that the few times we win, it is big enough to cover for all losses.

There are some people who can do that but there is no guarantee of it even if they are skilled or lucky. Most of the time, they may win by trying to analyze the situation and trying to predict the outcome of every game they are betting on. However, there are still times when they can't even if they use the same strategy. This is the same as to how we can have a bad day or we feel unlucky to have a great day and feel fortunate when we gamble.

Undoubtedly, gambling can be a profession, but for this you need to be able to fully control yourself, clearly observe money management, and competently allocate money. The main thing is to be able to stop in time

Gambling has started to gain a lot of popularity among people nowadays. Nowadays gambling has become so accessible that anyone can gamble online. Now it is so convenient that if you want identity at home, you can gamble secretly. Is it possible to make a permanent income through gambling? What is your opinion?

It is true that Being popular day by day. Many people involving in gambling now a day's. Because it is very secure and anyone can involve here through online. No need any others physical involvement. So it is also true that many people taken gambling as a profession. But i think gambling is very risky profession. It shouldn’t take as a profession it is my personal opinion. If we take gambling as a profession then we will be fall in trap. Because it is huge risk. When anyone lose in gambling then it will be very harmful for him and his family maintenance. So i am disagree with it. I think anyone take gambling as a side earning source.

Is it possible to make a permanent income through gambling? What is your opinion?

No, it is never possible. You can not make a steady income from gambling because you definitely will not be winning all the time you go to a casino. 

For example, you might gamble today with $50 and lose all that money for that day. If you repeat the next day the same amount, you might be able to multiply the money 2x, but you might also lose all that money on the next day. That's how gambling is and therefore should not be handled as an occupation. 

Although I have seen a man gambling always and yet taking good care of the financial need of his family. I think that gambling is just what he does, but I am not yet sure that he doesn't have any secret investment that is generating money for him always.

Today's gambling is the easiest and it can be played in privacy at home. Due to which no one knows about this and people focus more on it. Moreover if gambling is taken by a person as the price of his income then it is totally wrong because it is never right to do such thing as it can become temporary at any time. Any time you gamble you can lose your money and you certainly can so it would be better for you to find a source of income elsewhere rather than gambling.

Totally get what you're saying about gambling – it's so accessible nowadays, especially with the whole at-home setup. But you hit the nail on the head – relying on it for income is a risky move. It's like playing with fire; you never know when things might take a turn. I'd say, explore other avenues for income instead. By the way, any thoughts on gambling in Brazil [nofollow]?

Lately, I have been seeing more and more topics like this, whether gambling can be taken as a profession. I think I have seen similar topics in the bitcointalk forum. My answer will be the same in both places, gambling is never a wise thing to do as a profession. And those who will take it as a subject, they will definitely not be able to lead a normal healthy life in life. I have seen many people who are addicted to gambling and spend most of their time in gambling, and they are dependent on gambling for income and all their lives are always on lending. I will not say that they have never earned money, rather I will say that they have earned more money than me by gambling but their losses are much more than mine. So I would say gambling should never be taken as a profession

I agree that gambling is a potentially harmful activity, especially if someone becomes addicted to it or relies on it for income. Like any form of addiction, gambling addiction can have serious consequences for a person's mental health. Professionally pursuing gambling as a means of income is risky and not a rational behaviour due to the unpredictable nature of gambling outcomes. Also, the lifestyle of a professional gambler can be unstable, as it often involves significant financial swings and a lack of stability. This can lead to emotional distress.

I think there are certain betting sectors that can already be considered as a job, take poker as an example (it cannot be compared to light roulette) but also think of how many players are already paid to bet to venture, so yes for me certain types of bets can become a job.

For the richest person make gambling as have fun only but where are the ideas come from to make gambling as profession? I don't think positive side when making gambling as profession because not promising well to earn much profitable in gambling. Many time see how many people loss much with gambling and change the mindset of gambling is the why for having only not for getting passive or main income.
Gambling can't promising consistency earn much profitable and how possibilities to make as profession without earn profit every day, most deposit history in our account than withdrawal history.

So that's why I wonder why someone would think that gambling can be a profession. While a profession is something related to a certain income, but gambling is not like that, it requires luck for us to be able to get money from gambling.

Do not let us have thoughts like this, because it could be that this is the thought that makes us worse later. It is different when we work in a casino, because our income comes from our work not from the gambling we do.

The condition of those who have taken gambling as a means of main income has gone to a very bad level. I have seen from my own experience that many people are falling into a major financial crisis. It is the worst decision when someone is thinking of taking up gambling as a profession, because gambling will never provide a stable income with which he can support himself and his family. Gambling must be kept separate from the profession, gambling should be considered as a means of entertainment and extra income in order to reduce the risk of major financial losses.

[Woodie]

Yes you can make gambling as a profession, but unfortunately not everyone turns out to be profitable at it and statistics of success don't look good either because many users are hungry for success and get so greedy and rush to gamble without mastering their art (strategy) and emotions are everywhere such that when the time comes they lose composure and start to chase their losses.

Totally get what you're saying about gambling – it's so accessible nowadays, especially with the whole at-home setup. But you hit the nail on the head – relying on it for income is a risky move. It's like playing with fire; you never know when things might take a turn.

naked truth, and with low numbers of success, I think this is why many refer to gambling as a game to have fun to avoid it's negative effects such as debt, suicides, broken relationships etc.

Is it possible to make a permanent income through gambling? What is your opinion?

No, it is not possible but it is possible to make permanent losses in gambling for those who are addicted to gambling and find it as a place to make quick money.

Gambling has been a habit that many young and old people have fallen short of to have it as a way of making money without being reasoned enough to bet with money they can afford to lose.

No gambler would come out openly to say that gambling is their profession but we can find out that many have been placing their luck for their family's daily bread on it for years without being thoughtful of how much money they have spent on gambling ever since they started gambling.
