I gamble for fun but I gamble with small amounts of money so that the risk level is low and I don't have to worry about losing money. Yes, it is true that if you want to make money from gambling, you must spend money, because gambling is not just about making money, it also costs money. You have to accept that if you want to make money from gambling, you have to increase your risk and go slowly, you can win if you are lucky. I think it is quite difficult to make money from gambling but you can make money from it if you have the ability to take risks.
Increasing the risk isn't always worth it because it's 50/50, that best way to gamble is always to stake low, you never can tell if you would actually make profit of lose. But here's the thing that people don't talk about often times, even though you staked low and it turns out that you still ended up winning, the bright side is that you didn't lose and you made profit. The reason why people regret why they didnt stake higher is just greed
