Suppose our bankroll is $100 and it has already grown to $500, would you quit or continue? Conversely, if with our bankroll, we are down to $10, would you still continue or save the remaining $10?

i’d take the $500 and go thank you

i am not one to keep myself bleeding down to the last cent if i notice my money decreasing and not getting any profit then i would take that as a sign to stop and take my money to put into better things that could potentially give me profit instead

That's how it should be. If you're in profit, be contented so just quit. However, not all gamblers are able to do this because of their greed to gain more. The reason why it's much easier to stop once your bankroll is slowly decreasing. Because that's the time you'll feel a regret for losing your money in gambling instead of spending it into other things. Thus, it is likely you will save what's left before it's too late.

Contentment. I think that's the real goal here. When or at what number are we going to be content? To say that we had enough and we are done so we should withdraw.
Most gamblers might just go through continuous betting because they know that they won more and they have the capacity to bet longer for a chance to receive the same multiplier. I think that is a wrong point of view of gambling. The chances decrease by a lot after a win. It means the system will try to win back what you took from them and in the case of slots, bonuses, free spins, and scatter will be so rare that you will be stressed out about why it's not coming out.
Take the win, get out, leave a little bit of money, play with it, and be contented with what you have. Avoid depositing more after you lose the spare.

If you're happy, you might slip up, right? There is no magical finish line or jackpot to win. Thinking that another win will fill the void is like chasing ghosts. Trust me, I've seen people who have everything a rich person could want and are still very unhappy

It's not really about collecting prizes to be happy. The idea is to enjoy the small things, the relationships, and the sheer ridiculousness of life. Not being great is what it's about. "Damn, life's a wild ride, and I'm just glad to be on it" is what it's about upon reflection
