I would rather say that the things you mentioned like education, family, health, and your children are more an investment and not so much a gamble.

Everything in your life you gambled, you had to. On regular casinos you don't have to gamble, you can simply leave, plus casino literally tells you that you will lose on this gamble and you still do it.

I'm not really into the idea of gambling for fun. There are lots of ways to have fun so why should I do that in gambling. That's a "BIG NO" for me, no offense to others (as people don't have to be offended in the first place as we have different preferences). But honestly, even people admitted or not that they are gamblers, I don't see what's big deal on that. We should have a mind instead of our own business.

And about the topic subject, it's not appropriate to compare the literal gambling activity where people risk money and the form of gambling in the real-world that people deal with their daily lives. How come those things should be correlated.

Gambling basically depends on luck, so when you have 99% assurances due to further studies and experience concerning a prediction, I won't refer to that as gambling. For example, when I have done my research in cryptocurrency and seen the possibility it has to dominate the future and invest into Bitcoin, that's not gambling although if another users blindly follows my choices without carrying out some due diligence then that's gambling since he's totally depending on the outcome of my decision.

I know the risk and I understand that I could lose more, of course because I've lose a lot of money in the past but that didn't stop me from gambling, what I did, I learn from my mistakes and I improve to become a discipline gambler.

I was even gambling at my sperm form to meet my eggs. Trust me, I was the fastest and the strongest to meet my egg among 200 Million of us at that race.

I am a gambler and I have full control over it.

Quote from: skarais on February 17, 2020, 09:48:46 AM

I like gambling, I like dice and I also like some other games but I am not addicted so I can still control it

Quote from: Ailurophile on February 17, 2020, 02:09:27 PM

There is nothing wrong from being a gambler as long as it wouldn't affect the people around you.

Quote from: sheenshane on February 17, 2020, 04:35:22 PM

This is how we threaten gambling activity, we should have full control over it not just greediness.

I like gambling but I only gamble when I have spare money in my pocket.

They shut their mindset down where gambling is a way of earning money in everyday lives, which is so ironic for most of the people.

Quote from: bering on February 18, 2020, 03:49:02 AM

I never refuse if called as the gambler because that is the fact and currently i never shy anymore why i did gamble even lately my family know my habit but the good thing is they says as long i can control myself during gambling then they can accept my habit and indeed with self admitted it can makes us slightly comfortable what have we done so far

Quote from: bhabygrim on February 18, 2020, 08:11:52 AM

Why would I even hide it?
I mean being a gambler isn't illegal and doesn't harm anyone so there is nothing to be ashame of.
The only thing that I would be ashamed of if my the money that I am using is from the other people and I couldn't support my own.

Quote from: Juggy777 on February 18, 2020, 10:39:45 AM

Im a gambler and I used to have the compulsive gambling disorder and I wasnt happy with my life, slowly and steadily I accepted this fact and then I told myself that its not always about the money lets gamble only for the thrill and thats when my life changed.

I finally gave up on my compulsive gambling habits and then I began to gamble responsibly, which not only saved me lots of money but also gave me lots of satisfaction in life.

Lastly I would like to say that being a gambler is not wrong, but cursing yourself for being a gambler is wrong so I would urge all to accept themselves and approve of themselves and then see how life suddenly changes for good.

I'm happy that most of the members could see the purpose of this thread. It's not fun right if you go to a gambling discussion and see many negative topics about gambling. Moreover, it's stupid if you see many casino signature bearers then post unconstructively here just to increase their post count.

I could make cases that your life also somewhat affected by random chances (or luck), or analyses don't mean that much in trading, or you don't have to take risks in your life to progress, etc. But that's not my point.
