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.
Quiting is one of the most difficult decisions we could take as gamblers because there is a spirit that always tell us that the next bet would be a win making us to keep gambling without the knowledge that the next bet might not be a win. Gamblers are facing so many challenges and if one does not have discipline then we will be surprised that we shall keep betting even when we are losing. It is very good we understand the kind of person that we are to do that we don't keep making the same mistakes again. There were times my spirit used to tell me to quit gambling even when I am winning as I do see it as a true sign to leave gambling alone.
