There has been constant and unending debate in this forum about the possibility of becoming rich through gambling. I want to rejuvenate the debate by stating clearly that gambling can make someone rich. Someone uploaded his winning ticket on Twitter and this has generated diverse interest regarding gambling. This person staked #200 and won 23 million naira in Bet9ja. If not for gambling, what job can such a person do to get such an amount of money? The luck has fallen on him and if he is wise he can make more money by investing in productive business and not increasing his stake.
Below is the ticket:

This withstanding we should approach gambling with caution and an understanding of the associated risk. Remember not everyone will be lucky.
What is your opinion on this winning? Has this changed your mentality regarding gambling? Do you think people can become rich through gambling?

Yeah gambling can make someone rich without taking much time but at same time can also make someone poor when being engaged irresponsibly. I've seen alot of people that gambling have change their lives for the better by just hitting a miraculous jackpot. And some gambling have destroyed too, that why in gambling you much get principles you got to follow and you should always gamble responsibly and with caution also.

Gambling can make people rich, if that person has luck. If the person doesn't have luck, then he can lose, worse, he can go bankrupt in a day.
So we need to understand that gambling can make people rich, but the odds are quite low and not all gamblers can feel this way. That's why if you want to get rich, don't do it from gambling, but work hard or build your own business.
-
That kind of scenario is one in a million, just like someone winning in a lotto.
But the general perception that gambling can make someone rich is somewhat misleading. Though few people are making fortunes out of gambling but millions are also going broke and families broken because of gambling.
So, for me saying gambling can makes us rich is wrong.

It may not be misleading to say that gambling is capable of making someone rich because we hear and see people making millions from it. However, gambling can not reliably make someone rich because the outcome is always uncertain. The odds are typically sacked against the player and so, the house always has an edge.
Well, it is not proper to promote the idea that gambling makes people rich since majority of the gamblers do not amass wealth from gambling and so holding that gambling makes rich can be problematic and even create unrealistic expectations in the mind of the gambler which can result in emotional and financial damage.

It is possible to become rich by gambling, but there is no guarantee of this option. Considering that luck plays a big role in knowing whether or not someone will be successful in this gambling. There are indeed some individuals who have been able to change their lives by winning gambling or a lot of money in gambling, this is a rare opportunity, and not everyone can achieve it. Many people want to achieve similar gains, but it is important to know that not everyone will be successful in this endeavor.

Have you considered how often he has lost the while gambling?
Some people might be gambling for many years and have not made better winning for themselves but when the luck comes it would looks as if gambling is not hard or is so easily where you can win all the time without knowing its just a luck based game. People has became more poorer due to gambling, have you also consider such class of people as well who has been trying as much as possible to win which they sold lots of their properties to secure winning even as that no winning kept coming.
Note: Gambling can you rich at a time makes you poor as well.

Gambling can really make someone rich no doubt about that but take note it is one in a million gambler so take advantage of it it is your opportunity to have a capital for an investment to give you passive income. That being said if you have to properly manage your winnings but if not then you will end up losing all that again if tides turns against you. Winning millions in gambling is just one shot. Always remember this lyric from one of Eminem's songs that says:
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime.
-
There is nothing wrong with saying gambling can make us rich, but my question is what percentage of people become rich because of gambling? can anyone answer? is it 10% or less? 20% or more than that?
He got a big win because luck was with him when he gambled, so it made him win a big amount of money gambling.
And again, my question is how many people are lucky in gambling? I think it's not many. Regardless, I think it comes back to our own perception of this.

I disagree with the title ofyour thread no gambling cannot make you rich it could only make you rich if you're lucky enough to make the right bet, but gambling is never a cash cow many have tried that in the past, but they all failed and the numbers are growing, there are only few people who really made it in gambling it never a rule that you can be rich in gambling.
There are lotto winners, this is because they were hit by the jackpot they did not intentionally bet to win they hoped that luck would hit them and it did.
This withstanding we should approach gambling with caution and an understanding of the associated risk. Remember not everyone will be lucky.

The only people who get rich from gambling are gambling operators, owners, and promoters but if you're a bettor there's no guarantee there are people who get rich in gambling but is hard to imitate these people unless you also get hit by luck, treat gambling as an entertainment and
you will be ok and you might invite luck.
-
Gambling can make somebody rich through making thousands poor, in addition to making casinos earn. OP has given an example how some lucky person turned 200 naira into millions. Amazing achievement, but most likely that wont be repeated any month or year soon, and none of us gonna achieve similar. Chance to repeat such luck is one out of millions. This case I would not count as a motivation to start gambling. Instead it will show that where money was, not there are little.
-
The truth is that there is this fact that luck can actually make you successful but the one problem that stands is that no one is certain of that luck and I think if people actually look the winnings of others and take such step to follow up with gambling then you might find that the end outcome won't be particularly the same with your expectations.
I can point out to this fact that the habit has made millions of person go crazy with the fantasy that they can actually win that huge funds but the truth is that the possibility Is very slim
-
As you have stated already, the gambler is just lucky to have won such a huge amount of money with little staking power. Not everyone has such luck comes to, in their gambling stakes. They will bet on a big and small amount, they won't even win a dollar, talk more of such amount until the time they decide to quit gambling on their own.
It would be stupid of that person, who has won such an amount of money, to lavish it without utilize in starting up businesses or having some investment for themselves.
On that, gambling winning comes once in a while, and it remains a game of luck, that one should not rely on, for the breakthrough of riches or that of their family
-
I don't think I have said that gambling can not make someone rich but I remember saying that gambling is a game of chance which the bettors doesn't know when he or she will win a jackpot that can make him become rich abruptly. Gambling is a risky where you have to stake your money in a game that you don't yet know the outcome until the end of the game. So, while gambling, it's wise to risk the amount you can afford to lose.

And some gambling have destroyed too, that why in gambling you much get principles you got to follow and you should always gamble responsibly and with caution also.
I don't think that gambling have made more millionaires more than it has made people poor. There's no doubt that people could miraculously hit the jackpot but what is the percentage of people that gets rich through this means? Very minimal I think.
The number of people who wish and think that they will become very rich through gambling is increasing and that is the reason why there is gambling addiction.

These words and also various gambling advertisements that always show easy ways to get the jackpot will definitely make beginners or lay people believe them. so they enter the world of gaming with the hope of really getting rich quickly, fantasizing about getting the jackpot on their first spin and then becoming rich.
But does this always happen? of course not. This is an advertisement and we don't need to take it for granted. As good as gambling is and whatever the promise of getting rich quickly, the fact is that it is not easy and not everyone is that lucky. In fact, many people actually become poor when gambling, lose every bet, have more and more loans, and also commit various criminal acts. Because the impact of gambling, especially when addicted to gambling, is very dangerous. For this reason, it is necessary to have an open and wise mind when dealing with gambling activities. Learn more first so that we can really be ready to carry out gambling by reducing the risks and minimizing the risks.

you right having the mindset that a time would come when you surely hit the jackpot, that most time always initiate gambling addiction, I'm so lucky that am not addicted to gambling I'm just imagining the shit I would have been through, remembered when I was new to gambling I was pretty much getting addicted to it which made me to lose alot of my funds but the ones I could risk and the ones I could not. After losing a certain amount of money I stop gambling for a while. So that I won't get addicted to it

gambling can make someone rich
Who said that it doesn't? Who said that gambling can't make somebody rich? Who said that gambling can't change someone's life?
Gambling can make someone rich, but how many gamblers must lose their money just to make one gambler a winner? I'm not saying that gambling can't make you rich. What I'm saying is that, gambling most of the time can make your life miserably for various reasons. Gambling has changed the lives of many people, but the amount of people who got their life destroyed because of gambling is way more than those who won.
What is your opinion on this winning? Has this changed your mentality regarding gambling? Do you think people can become rich through gambling?
No. I will stand on what I see about gambling.
My opinion on that winning bet? He's lucky. Simple as that. Sometimes we're lucky, sometimes we're not. Sometime it's not our day, sometimes it's our day. People can become rich in gambling like I said. It's just that, there more people who are losing than winning.
-
It is not possible to predict how to get rich from gambling as it is an uncertain addiction that depends entirely on luck. A rich gambler can become completely bankrupt by gambling or a poor gambler can become a fortune millionaire by gambling. In fact, in gambling you can never say for sure, you can never say for sure when someone's luck will favor you. So we cannot accurately predict when an uncertain profession will make rich.
-
I think this is a wrong saying because gambling can never make people worldly, most of the times I have seen gambling destroy people. I see a lot of people in my area who gamble and are now so destitute they don't have much money to go around. A person who gambles becomes addicted and gradually loses money until eventually they run out of money and have no place to earn money. But in my opinion most gamblers have lost money and many people in my area have lost their money gambling. Gambling can make people rich but users and players who are lucky are the only ones who win such big jackpots and become rich.
-
I think this is a wrong saying because gambling can never make people worldly, most of the times I have seen gambling destroy people.
It is a simply false statement, just as it would be false to say that flower pots kill people because a flower pot occasionally falls on people walking down the street from a flat.
The crux of the matter is that gambling is a bad system for making money, and people who have money generally know that. That's why the richest postcodes are the ones that gamble the least. Conversely, the poorest areas are where people gamble the most.
Funny that he calls getting rich that amount, which at the exchange rate is $17,000. I guess that's a lot of money in Nigeria, but I don't think it's enough to retire on.

Not always about the luck sometimes about the skills or both the luck and the skills. You can be very skillful in gambling but not lucky. There are some types of gambling that requires skill like the sports betting.
So, in order to be lucky to win big money, you must have to be skillful and then lucky at the same time. But it is always difficult to have both same time.

Many people out of ignorance have had a bad experience thinking that in the game they are going to get rich quickly and that is what can lead to serious problems, among them being decapitated, it can lead to debt and even a possible addiction, and that is what which we should avoid at all costs, for that reason we should always think about everything when we play, I do not advise playing to get rich, what I advise is that people who play in a casino should be more cautious, you should not bet with so much money, and that's what snotors should always see.
People who bet a lot of money, then lose, you can't do much, so you have to know how to play, with intelligence, with everything that can be Expected from the moderation of a person, since there is a lot that is being risked, And what you can do the most is that, but losing a lot of money should be avoided, the only option that I see that a person can make a difference is by playing slots, but you still spend a lot there.
-
I think only people who got rich from gambling can say they got rich from gambling because I have never seen people who got rich from gambling. I have seen many people around who were very addicted to gambling and who struggled a lot with their family and gambled but their position never got better than before but their position always went down. A man who was once quite influential in the area is today burdened with debt due to excessive gambling and addiction to gambling. Gambling is fine for us as long as our expectations of gambling are low but whenever our expectations of gambling become high we have to assume that we must be doing something wrong that could cause us to lose money. So avoid over-expectation and limit your expectations especially when it comes to gambling.

Yes, we cannot say anything with certainty about anything that is uncertain. We have to admit that there are more people who are poor than there are people who get rich gambling. However, many have changed their lives through gambling in a way that is never possible from any other platform. Those who have won the jackpot from gambling know how quickly gambling made them rich and those who are poor also know how quickly they lost their money. In this context a gambler will win if he is lucky but there is no guarantee that he will become rich. Gambler can be both rich and poor.

There has been constant and unending debate in this forum about the possibility of becoming rich through gambling. I want to rejuvenate the debate by stating clearly that gambling can make someone rich.
There is no something impossible in the world. Sure, gambling can make someone be rich if he is a lucky person. You know the example that people can show the proof that gambling makes him be rich. However, we don't know how long someone can be rich if he continuous gamble. Not everyday we are lucky in gambling, there should be time for losses. I guess he can be poor again if he can't manage the funds for gambling properly.
-
If not for gambling, what job can such a person do to get such an amount of money? The luck has fallen on him and if he is wise he can make more money by investing in productive business and not increasing his stake.
First of all, gambling is not a job or a way of living or could ever be a main income source. The thing that depends on your luck can't give you assurance for the future. You are winning today. That's a good thing. But how can you be so sure that it will continue to happen for the rest of your life? Never take something as a primary source of income which depends on luck. It can change over time.
What is your opinion on this winning? Has this changed your mentality regarding gambling? Do you think people can become rich through gambling?
The opinion that I previously had will still remain the same. I am not changing it. You can earn or win millions of dollars through gambling. but you can lose billions in seconds too. It's a risky thing which you should only do if you can afford to do it. It is for entertainment purposes only. If you can afford to buy that entertainment, you should do it only then.
-
Yeah gambling can make someone rich without taking much time but at same time can also make someone poor when being engaged irresponsibly.
I didn't really see this gambling directly in front of my eyes, but in my mother's neighborhood, from before until now, there were definitely people who gambled.
But I noticed that the gambling was on a small scale, no one gambled with a lot of value and maybe on a small scale the gambling was done every day with friends. Hmmmmm.
I also noticed that those who gambled in my mother's neighborhood did not become rich or have valuable things, what happened instead was that they lived ordinary lives and seemed to have lost their way to a better life.

I too do not think gambling have made more millionaires than it has made more gamblers lose funds in the course of gambling. Winning of games like they say has luck factors surrounding the bettor. So therefore, if one wins big, it is assumed that luck shone on the gambler and that resulted to him or her winning the game but the winning is always regular for the house as the house factor and mechanism supports the house in that way.
When you compare the results of both variables you will discover that the losing rate of gamblers is far much bigger than the winning rate of the winners and it is rare to see a gambler saying that they had won big in games they play but rather just few of them and that is why when any gambler wins big, the casino would want to make it public for every one to know that gamblers win and they the casino honours agreement by releasing the wins to the gambler.

Yeah true! complaints and agony brought by gambling made it impossible to become rich through gambling. Even though people are becoming rich, the question is how many are making money compared to the majority crying every day? A win by one person doesn`t change the narrative that gambling is not a reliable source of income. For instance, if a person drives recklessly and nothing happened to him doesn`t mean reckless driving is good. This is similar to gambling.
Sometimes, the problem is not about making money through gambling but the ability to sustain the winning and even grow bigger. Experience showed that any money earned through gambling always end up in the accounts of the betting companies, leaving the bettor impoverished and frustrated.

What is your opinion on this winning? Has this changed your mentality regarding gambling? Do you think people can become rich through gambling?
In fact, very few people get rich from gambling, but there is a lot of evidence that gambling has ruined their lives, but there is little evidence that gambling has changed or improved their lives. Yes here maybe the man has won a lot of money if he has won so much money in gambling then I think he must have got greedy if he has got greedy and if he is gambling and earning money I think he will get more later. Greedy will participate in gambling with more money. Unfortunately if he loses the next gamble his lifetime income is gone. So I think very few people can get rich by gambling but if they have big budget then quit gambling.
Watching this gambling game has not changed my mindset because I only use gambling for entertainment, I never use this gambling game to make money outside of entertainment. From my point of view I never think people can get rich by making money from gambling.

If you see the image as green, you may be full of wins, and if there is red, you may experience defeat.
Honestly, I don't know what it is about gambling that you put in the picture because I don't want to and have never gambled.
If the person who gambles on the image is lucky, they may have to be grateful for the win. But most of the gamblers around me have lost. :'(
I can't imagine that it would be such an extraordinary victory, but the fact is that in my real work circles, gambling makes people poor, as I often tell about my boss who lost a lot of money, equivalent to the latest Honda SUV.
-
It is possible, but if you have your own strategy and spend your last money in the hope of success. Strategy is very important and the platform where you will apply it is important. For example, on the same Fairspin I can apply my strategy quite easily and consistently pull money out of there
-
It seems to me that of course someone can get rich through gambling, but there are very few such people. Even in theory, probably 1 percent of the players should receive large winnings and be in profit. As for the rest of the players, they will lose at the game distance in any case, even if they once have local winnings. But of course, gambling managers and promoters will advertise exactly those 1 percent of successful guys so that every potential player puts himself in their place.
-

I still believe that gambling is a game of chance and luck so having tricks to take advantage of the game is for me just a coincidence if you win unless the platform uses some sort of predictable patterns or intervals. Still chances of losing is high rather than winning the jackpot or something that makes a gambler rich is for me still a one in a million thing.
-
It's not like gambling can make you rich. Gambling depends entirely on luck. Most people never know what is going to happen when gambling. Most of the time people take gambling as entertainment. Making money off of it and getting rich seems ridiculous to me. Gambling is the riskiest way to get rich. It may also happen if you spent all your wealth on gambling and at the end of the day you lost all your money instead of getting rich. How will the matter then? So instead of thinking about getting rich by gambling, you can invest your wealth in different places.
-
Gambling definitely can make someone rich but not for everyone. who has a great luck and also a great gambling skill he/she can win a big jackpot at any time and can change his financial status. It is very difficult to have good luck and high skill at the same time. so, so very rare gamblers can able to win such a big jackpot to get rich. Many people hope that they might win something like this and continue wasting money on gambling with this hope.

I am always putting things as they are, for me it is very difficult to think that things are like that to get rich from one day to the next, yes it can be done, but in reality you have to have a very big risk, so in this order of ideas, we as thinking people have a lot to give and do, so I know that something is always going to be said, the only way to get rich in a casino is by betting heavily on the slots, but yes, I bet with a large amount and win a Extraordinary sum, that's all I think can happen, but to do that is very difficult, because who is going to have to lose about $200k to bet hard? maybe a very millionaire person, because if I lose at least 100usd, wow that hurts me a lot and I don't play for a month, because I have to get that money.
But to be rich, from one day to the next Playing in a casino , that's how things are, that's what we must do and we must see.
-
There are some people that made enough money through gambling but that is a real rich because it is not guaranteed to stand forever because you are not going to earn every month or weeks but it is once and when the money has been exhausted then you became poor again. So gambling millionaires are just for the main time and not for ever lasting. Gambling can make someone to become a millionaire for a short time.
