I have this principle of not gambling when I'm financially down, some people might consider such a phase the best time to gamble because they might get lucky. For me I see it as a very easy way to get desperate, you become more stressed out mentally when your expectations keeps crashing. Putting your last hope on gambling can be very frustrating, that's why I wouldn't advice anyone that's broke to do it. Most wins I have had where times that I wasn't broke, I didn't stress about losing the money in my account. There's something about gambling when you are not broke.
Individuals need to understand what is good for them and have a principle that works for them. Some gamblers do have problems because they do not have good principles and do not adhere to what is good for them. Gambling is very risky, and it is not good to take a risk that you cant affod because losing money will cause significant pain. Risks in gambling need to be calculated, and it is always best when gamblers play with an amount they can afford. I don't think it is a good idea to gamble when you are financially down, as it can make one very greedy and desperate.
Till now, there are still gamblers that are always scared to lose money nit because they don't feel like gambling but because they have had so many worse experiences in the past that is making them to over think that gambling could bring them ore loses than profits.
It is will wise for very gamblers to gamblers with what they could afford to lose so that they would not have problem when they lost bets. There are so many bets we are taking that have no guarantee which is why we need to keep trying luck and not to gamble excessively which could cause severe loses to us if carr is not taken.
