I know it’s very easy to make money in gambling. That’s kind of the whole lure of it, that you can make money, fast, and easily. But gambling it's not a steady income due to the high risk involved. It’s great to win money! People love that! That's why they gamble in the first place. The main issue with gambling is that while people win money, they lose even more money if they don't know how to control it. Like I said in other post, you should know how to control it and set limitation for yourself.

Gambling is not a one shot trade. You are suppose to gamble day after day after day. So I think the main rule is to protect your capital. If you have $100 in your pocket, bet $1. If you have 1000 at your disposal, bet 10 on each game. Make sure you don’t go broke. And if you wanna learn from your past mistakes, write down everything you can. At least every single bet you take into a spreadsheet of some sort. This is the only way to have an impartial history of your performance.

I think you're right OP.
When you know what the real root of the problem is or you recognize it, you will be able to stop
being addicted to gambling once and for all. And of course you have a family and friends, tell them so they
can help you and support you.

I know it's not easy and it's very difficult to stop gambling because they spend too much time on it
but if you have strong desire to stop it and find another hobby, you can make it. Just trust yourself, I know you can.

Nowadays, almost anyone can make money online. If you are wondering how to make money online, you need to focus on what you are already good at. You have talents that a lot of other people would love to have, and you need to lean on them if you would like to make money online. Just be careful because there are so many scammer right now.

Buying an existing business does not automatically mean that the business will still be successful when it gets handed over to you. One of the pros in buying a business that is already thriving is that there are already policies, processes and standards in place. You'll just have to figure out if you will need to implement new ones or revise the existing company manuals and think of strategies for the future. However, you should take note that when buying an existing business, the previous owner or president has for sure established a good relationship with his stakeholders because no man can build an empire alone. If you takeover, consider the factor that you may experience retaliation for the new management. The previous owner might also have a different vision than you that's why it's important to maintain a good relationship with the previous key personnel of the business. Never burn bridges.

On the other hand, when you grow a business from scratch, you should be prepared with regards to the bumpy road ahead. You'll basically have no day offs if you want to seriously work on establishing your business because if you don't do something, the business will also be idle. You'll have to get your pocket ready for the capital or gather investments because money is the number 1 need in a startup. You will also have to learn a lot - even things that are out of your expertise. Prepare yourself for a lot of reading and do your research diligently beforehand. The positive aspect of growing your business from scratch though is that you'll gain a massive amount of knowledge and you will be very hands on that you will be in the loop in everything. Nobody can ever fool you when it comes to your business. The best thing that will come out of it is of course the joy and pride that you'll get when the time comes that you witness the success of the business that you built out of your own blood, sweat, tears, and money.

You don't have to feel ashamed for the fact that you are addicted to gambling because we all have a hobby or a habit. It's okay as long as you are doing it in moderation and your life has not been negatively affected. Just know know how to control it and set limitations for yourself.

Addiction doesn't just affect the gamblers, it affects their family, friends and many more people. If you're dealing with the problem gambling situation in your home, know that you are not alone like I said you have a family and friends are ready to help you find the support you need. Just remember that your family must always come first. If they are very against it, then you should consider stopping your gambling and just find another hobby. As they say, it only takes 7 days to form a habit.

Do you know how you know you are addicted to gambling or not?
Well if you stop gambling completely and you feel independently fulfilled and relaxed,
then you are not addicted. But if you become restless, irritated or even angry to people you most
likely are addicted to gambling.

When you know what the real root of the problem is or you recognize it, you will be able to stop
being addicted to gambling once and for all. You don't have to feel ashamed for the fact that you
are addicted to gambling because we all get addicted to something or someone first in life before
you know how we control it or stop right. Gambling is fun but you should know your limit.

Sa totoo lang para sakin yung 1k pesos na pera mo na dati sobrang dami mo pwedeng bilhin, ngayon parang 100 pesos na lang. Ganun ko karamdam yung inflation sa pilinas ngayon. Tapos hindi pa rin tumitigil sa pag taas yung mga bilihan every month. Dati may natatabi pa ako sa sahod ko at nakaka-ipon para mabili yung gusto ko, ngayon hindi na e. Halos kinakain na lahat kahit tumaas yung sahod ko pati saving nadadali rin dahil sa sobrang taas ng mga bilihin ngayon.

Pero wala tuloy pa rin ang buhay need mo magdoble kayod para sa kinabukasan ng pamilya mo. Kailangan mo dumiskarte o gumalaw para kahit papaano hindi ka mabaon sa utang. Sa ngayon nakikita ko naman na ang dami pa rin pwede pagkakitaan para sa extra income kung alam mong kulang talaga yung sinasahod mo kasi ako ganun ginagawa ko ngayon kaya kahit papaano nakakasurvive at nakakaipon naman kahit konti

It's natural to feel remorse after you lose in gambling because you're a human, you have emotion so don't over think bro. It's normal. Who doesn't regret when he loses money in his gambling? I think no one feels happy to lose some or bigger money in gambling.

Maybe just limit your money to use in gambling so you won't feel that bad or upset because you have budget and already have made up your mind that you may win or lose

I think I was first introduced to gambling when I was still very young. I guess I was still in high school back then.
My friends and I used to play games while wagering something. I wasn't fully aware that what we were doing at that time was already considered as gambling I was only educated about it when I told my parents stories of how my friends and I were hanging around after classes. The experience was fun and interesting. I got thrilled by the fact that I'll be able to get something bigger than the amount of money that I was betting as long as luck is on my side. Since I was told by my parents not to engage myself in such acts ever again, I have since avoided gambling.

However, in our digital world right now, I believe that there's nothing wrong with gambling as long as you are doing it moderation and you've done a lot of research before wagering something.

Well in my opinion.

Typical gambling reference “anything of value,” which is always held to include money, but can include a lot of other things as well. As long as you're risking something that can be taken away from you in hopes that you be able to get something of a higher value

In your case, I think you're not gambling because you're not wagering anything in anticipation of your chances at winning. I'm glad to hear that something like that exists though. We better check it out when we have a chance.

Exactly. There is a big distinction separating Gambling and Bitcoin, both serve their purpose and should not be compared.

In my opinion, when you do gambling, you consider chances, your luck, and your intuition within that day. While buying Bitcoin or trading crypto in general, you consider different factors through fundamental analysis and technical analysis. It is a learning process, and there should really be a strategy because, with cryptocurrency's volatility, there is a higher chance of losing your money when you risk it without proper positioning.

I, too, will never envy those who won significant amounts in the lottery. Instead, I would be proud of them. Imagine, one in a million people they have been given luck. Being envious is just a toxic trait that won't help you go places.

Recently there was a lotto lucky winner in our country who won PHP93.6 million / USD1.7 million, and I am happy for him even though I do not personally know him. Rather than being envious of them, I am more curious about how they will handle the money they have won because there has been news on the previous winner of the lottery who went back to zero just because his spending habits quickly ate up the money, and even use it in his addictions. I always hope they use their money wisely and serve it as their steppingstone to go more in life.

It does not seem practical to use money from loans in gambling. Just imagine the risk of losing the money you borrowed, how will you cover up and pay for those loans? Typically, this will be a repeating cycle until you go bankrupt from debts.

There is this one instance in which one of my relatives is asking for money, which we also suspect he will only use for gambling. It is much better not to tolerate this act because it will only be a cycle for him. Loan over loan just to cover up his losses.

Holding a Bitcoin for a long time is totally worth it, especially if you hold a considerable amount of money that the price of your Bitcoin might be doubled or tripled in the next 3 years. While if you only hold a small amount of Bitcoin, it will take long for you to be satisfied with your investment.

As for me, I will only be holding a bitcoin on the amount that I can only afford to lose because the price of Bitcoin is still volatile, and my daily needs are my top priority. Holding btc really depends on your situation and circumstances.

It doesn't mean that if you introduce Bitcoin to someone, they should already buy or invest some of their money in it. Remember, if you are introducing Bitcoin to someone else, you should be telling them the risk of investing in it by explaining to them that the price of Bitcoin is not always a win-win situation. Explain to them that Bitcoin's price is volatile, and you can not say when it will go up or down.

If you ask me, I will only introduce Bitcoin to people interested in learning more about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies before they buy it because I don't want to look like I am pushing them to buy it. That's why I only want to talk to people eager to learn more about it rather than to people only looking for easy money.

Being able to evaluate oneself that you have a gambling addiction is a good sign because you still have the awareness within yourself. Seeking help from your family and professionals will give you higher chances of overcoming such addiction. Lot of of setbacks is expected, but just keep on betting that you can overcome your gambling addiction.

Sad to say, here in our country, there are a lot of numbers of content creators who jumped in with negative publicity just because "publicity is publicity," and they still create noise and increase the range of the attention they get from people who still get baited with their tactics. Yes, they earn from it, get money from it, and they are recognized now by people with such a "negative image," but this is not sustainable, and it does not continually work overtime. Being a content creator with values and creative juices is not easy.

Yes, there are a lot of opportunities to earn money, but our mindset and perspective drive us whether we will jump in and take a risk for more opportunities or just keep staying in our comfort zones and be contented with what we already have.

I absolutely agree with this. Having the idea that you do gambling just for pure enjoyment and pastime, will give you clearer mindset with lesser pressure and sticking to your limits. But as a source of income? This will definitely develop unhealthy gambling habits to cover up and chase those losses. It is still better to find a stable income rather than depend on luck in gambling. Addiction on gambling makes you desperate on winning and lose your rationale and it will never really give us any good.

Yeah, I agree with this. I had the experience with this just when I was newly exposed to crypto trading, out of FOMO, randomly buying coins without any basis only pure luck, and I can assure you, it will never go well.

The best thing to do is invest first in knowledge. It is hard to win over something we don't fully understand, and we will never overcome all those barriers in trading if we do not have the capacity to learn. At the end of the day, we are in charge of our own destiny in trading, either we will benefit from it or give us drawbacks.
