Winnings from gambling comes unexpected and they are subject to proper management or excessive spending depending on the gambler's orientation.
Some gamblers have argued that the wins is not part of their financial plan, describing it as lucky and free money and they do not care how they spend it, but mainly use it for recreational purposes and to enjoy themselves by increasing their living conditions, partying and other forms of fun for a while, while there are others that apply more prudence in managing their winnings.
I like to think of my gambling wins as an income boost and depending on the amount, I always prefer using it to solve a particular issue or purchase a need that would always remind me of the winning.
Let's hear from you, how do you think gambling winnings should be spent?
In my case, it depends how much I will win. If my winnings is not that big then I just spend it on a temporary happiness like buying a food or cooking a special meal. But if I manage to win an amount that is big, I think many times where should I spend it properly that can benefit my life long term like buying a new appliance or pay in advance my monthly bills.
In that way, I would have extra budget for the next month and also less stress for me to manage my financials.
