You were so clear on this and rightly too. Having income shouldn`t mean gambling without limitations. Without limitations, you will record more losses and be likely to get into debt or sell properties in the quest of trying to recoup losses. Gambling is full of uncertainty so our income shouldn't be thrown to gambling all the time. There is always a call for self-control because with self-control we can get the best from gambling. In my opinion, getting the best from gambling means having fun and learning from the experiences gathered in the course of gambling. This can only be achieved when we gamble only with the amount we are prepared to lose.

Having income means that we can manage that income to use it correctly. For this reason, we must be able to allocate income to the right places to meet all our daily needs, including allocating a certain amount of money for gambling. We cannot allocate large amounts of money to play gambling, especially since in gambling, there is uncertainty about when we will win, let alone win big. We can only use gambling as a place to have fun and not think about winning, so we don't need to gamble too often and seriously. If we can understand how to treat gambling as entertainment, we will not always seek pleasure from gambling because there are still many things that can also pleasure us.

Big losses can be minimized with good self-control and by setting a budget limit for gambling. If we gamble using the specified money then big losses will not occur. I also always emphasize that the budget used for gambling must be clear. which we are willing to lose, because losing at gambling is certain and cannot be avoided and we must be able to accept that defeat well, lest finding that defeat makes us deposit money back to chase wins or recover losses.

Gambling activities are actually not wrong, but many people experience losses because they themselves respond wrongly to gambling, they think gambling can give them an easy win. even though it is very difficult to happen, even winning a small amount is difficult, let alone winning a large amount, the chance of it happening is only 1% out of 100%.

We will not gamble excessively as long as we can allocate a budget that we can afford for gambling and can control ourselves when gambling because we will always remember that gambling will not always give us easy wins. We have to spend a lot of money first to win, even though that doesn't guarantee we can win. That's why we don't need to gamble too often to avoid losing when gambling, including losing a lot. By setting a clear budget limit, we only need to gamble according to that budget limit so that we will not exceed that budget to avoid losing a lot, which could result in losing more money.

Playing gambling is not wrong, but we have to be really careful when gambling so we don't lose a lot of money, as has been experienced by many gamblers. By considering gambling as entertainment, we already know how we should behave so that we can also avoid problems that might arise while we are gambling or after we have finished gambling. It's hard for us to win so we don't need to chase after that win and just play enough gambling.
