We have said it several times without number on this gambling board that gambling is not for making money. Gambling should only be for fun.
Or let me put it this way. If you want to gamble, either for fun or to make money, do not use more than 1% to 5% of your weekly income on gambling. The recommended percentage is 1% but I do not see 5% affecting me. So if you can not go more than 1% of your weekly income, do not go more than that.
If gambling is taking your money, do not gamble again.
I completely agree.
That is exactly the reason why I only gamble with tiny amounts of money and I make sure to put a daily spending limit in place. Gambling is not a profitable practice and nobody should suffer under the delusion of it being some kind of amazing, secret income source that others, who lose their money gambling, do not have the skill to achieve.
The ultimate truth is that when we gamble, we seek the rush of adrenaline and dopamine. That is all. Some of us know that and others seek it without understanding what it is that they seek.
And you can get the same rush with tiny amounts of money, so why gamble large amounts?
