For most, when looking back, the answer is going to be yes without gambling. Majority of the gamblers are losing overall. I have seen people who regret that they invested instead, which would have yielded dividends. Regret usually accompanies gambling loss. Would you have been richer if you hadn't gambled?
 
Most gamblers ultimately lose money. Had they not gambled, they could have carried their money elsewhere and made some return on it. The loss from gambling surely gives rise to financial regrets If it's not done cautiously.
 
I suppose how you define "richer". More money in my pocket? Maybe, though not wildly so. But if I had not played, I would be poorer for not having all the fun experiences.
 
No. I don't gamble much outside of poker, and I'm a winning player.
 
My family has lost a lot of money gambling over the years, so I say yes, we be better off if we never gambled.

This is a mixed bag because it could go either way. Ultimately, it depends on the individual involved and the approach that was taken to carry out gambling activities.
 
I don't believe i will be richer. There are many people who are not gamblers but they are still poor. While gambling can be draining my purse, i still find it a healthy way to make quick cash. Remember, not every business will bring in profit.
 
Honestly, no. I only gamble what I can afford to lose and I won more times that I lost.

I’ve won numerous times on slot machines compared to anything thing else.
 
Poker survived my life after covid
 
I myself personally have not been affected but I have seen a few friends in the past that would of been better off thats for sure.
 
I've had some pretty mixed results too, but staying on sites like mega888kiss.com helped me manage things better—clear layout, easy tracking of wins and losses, and I don’t get carried away as much. I learned to set small budgets before I open the app, so I’m not chasing anything crazy. It’s more fun that way, and way less stressful than how I used to play a few years ago.

I don't think that my gambling behavior is so damaging to my finances to affect my financial standing today. The little money I use to play sports bet would probably have been spent on other past times even if I didn't use it to play sports betting.
