Can gambling make a person rich


Guest Guest

Recommended Posts

Considering every week, there is at least 1 people became a millionaire thru Toto.   I encourage people who are poor, like the Bangaleshi, Pinoy Maid, and those blue-collar General Workers to buy at least $2.  You never know when miracle will happen and change your life forever.  Rich people can forget about buying. No point.

Toto is the only chance for u to have a windfall,  working hard is good but that is only going to put 3 meals on your table and a roof over your head.

 

Buy what u can afford to lose and pray for the God of fortune to knock on your door. Buy and at least there is a chance the God can knock on your door,  don't buy,  zero chance.

everyone wants to be rich, who wants to be poor ? 

 

physical money confers wealth , power , status, sexual attractiveness, provides a veneer of 'respectability', when you are rich , very rich , you can act like an arsehole like simon cowell , yet people will pay to watch you entertain them , when you are poor, people treat you like an encumbrance.

 

want to get rich , change your mindset about how you look at money.

 

 

people who get rich , very rich .

 

they build a better , super effective kelong,  all the fish in the sea is directed into their self made kelong, 

 

toto, 4d, is like throwing a line into the sea , and hoping a gigantic golden tuna will bite your bait of hae bee,  

 

whereas the rich , rich , just build a giant kelong to guide and direct all the fish in the sea into their kelong trap.

Years back, in Genting Highland. Strolling around the casino complex, I noticed haggard looking men with bulging red eyes speaking on their handphones, they spoke with rough voices, some whispering, presumably discussing their strategies on their next bet. They stared blankly into the space. Their hearts and minds were so on the betting tables. All of them had vibes of a gambler.

 

Either win or lose, I wonder what is the long term consequences.

Thats why must throw more lines or better still cast a net, throwing fishing lines or casting net doesnt guarantee that u will get fishes but dont try,  u get nothing.

 

Yes,  building a kelong is good but before u can do that, u need money right and working hard is just not enough to do that.

 

This friday, there will be a few more kelong owners born,  one of them might just be u, that is if u have throw some fishing lines or cast a net 😀

How many ppl become millionaires playing Toto. How many become millionaire doing his/her own business.

 

Only different is one is 100% luck, the other is 20% luck and 80% others. Will u go all in on 100% luck?

 

I know both types of people.. The best one is he win lottery, THEN go into business... Now very very rich.

Unless you are a professional

gambler prepared to lose a lot as well as win, be aware that almost everyone who buys a lottery ticket or visits a casino will lose. Casinos are in business to make money. They can only do that if more gamblers lose than win. So the odds on every game are stacked in favour of the casino. How do you think Sheldon Adelson made such a ton of money? 
 

Same with a lottery ticket you

buy on the street. The prizes seem big but huge numbers of people buy them. Profits are high for the lottery organizers. 


One poster mentioned Warren Buffett. There is a difference. He is not a gambler - even though some people regard investing in stocks as a gamble, Buffett is an investor who spends a great deal of his own and his executives time researching the companies he buys and invests in. He has been remarkably successful, even though occasionally an investment will turn sour. Had you bought US$300 of his company’s shares in 1980, they would be worth US$50,000 now!

 

For casinos and lotteries, a good rule of thumb is never gamble more than you can afford to lose.

I knew of this guy in the US, who paid for his university education by gambling poker during each of his summer breaks. Very unusual way of paying your way through college, but he did it, with money to spare. That said, he was a pretty smart guy. When I met him, he was taking a break from his PhD to do his Masters in IP Law...

Слава Україні!

But build kelong in the wrong sea or illegally also can land you in jail.

Gambling makes the gambling places, the casinos, rich.  Unless they are owned by Donald Trump.

IMO, the reality is, gambling can provide occasional wins, but relying on it to make you rich isn't a sustainable plan. It's more about enjoying the thrill responsibly. Setting limits and understanding the odds are key to making it a fun pastime rather than a financial risk. True wealth comes from sound investments and smart financial choices over time.

 

Not everyone is able to set limits and understand the odds.   To enjoy the thrills of gambling can be a first step towards an ugly addiction that leads to ruin.   The rules of probability don't respect anyone.  The best is to avoid any unnecessary gamble.

I would say gambling is a zero sum game.

 

All those winnings came from those people who lost money.

 

So those who are able to make money from gambling - we shall skip the "rich" part - were either luckier or smarter at the gambling game than those who lost money.

 

This also means more people lose money in gambling than people winning money from gambling. 

 

Back to the question, "can gambling make a person rich?" - yes, but more people lose money than winning.  Also, I think the ultimate winner in gambling would be the gambling joint owner.

I have known such people who won regularly in gambling and witnessed some who won big myself.

 

In Genting, I saw this man winning so much that the table game needed to pause for a long time waiting for a trolley loaded with cash chips to pay him in boxes. This episode happened twice on separate days. And I heard that this happened few times before. Maybe one of you might have witnessed before too.  This man betted on numbers 30's in roulette and playing two to four tables simultaneously.  

 

At MBS , there are many retiree  uncles  who gamble in enjoyment chatting up each other and slowly but eventually made a profit end of session. I think they call themselves 'tan chia '.  But are they rich from gambling?  IDK.  At least they are winning money whether enough to classify them as rich is another matter.

Another very successful uncle I know is a horse racing bookie.  Once he made enough money he would hide himself in a VIP room so that the punters couldn't find him to place bet.  When racing starts again,  he would go to the toilet to pee then leave the premise.  That's also where I saw his big tool and remembered him as a character a!ways.

 

Most people lose in gambling.  The successful ones are those who do it with a strategy.  One which I find helpful is you must not lose big money. Only losing small money then can you have a  better chance to win big money.  How to stop the loss if you are on a losing spree?  Stop the game! Leave!

In the company in the same building as my company, there was apparently 1 person who "gambled" on crypto during pandemic. Halfway through she told the boss to go fly a kite. Heard she moved out from her 4 room HDB to a private house and her husband now drives a sports car. She has a good heart and still comes back now and then to visit her ex-colleagues to treat them to lunch nearby.

Just found out this topic. I'm agree with gambling can make you rich. But with correct ways of gambling, not just simply simply ones.

 

My current 4 room condo, my car and even now me semi retirement mode in age of 31 years old with 6 figures saving in bank, all is from football gambling in Singapore Pools since 2016 till now. Long I'm no say, just say recently my winnings is enough. Just only yesterday in FIFA World cup 2026 qualifiers match, Argentina vs Chile, win 3-0 tht match, myself winning profits of SGD $5.3k from SG Pools, because I'm a diehard supporter of Lionel Messi. My bets in Argentina during world cup and their qualifiers match never disappointed, always win money bets. This morning only I'm win again $2.2k with Brazil win 1-0 match. Haha. Almost weekly I'm will go SG Pools HQ to collect my winnings cheque altogether in 5 figure amount to bank in ones. Haha.

Luck or lack of it...  does not come with the genes.  "Luck" is a function of randomness in nature, and is evaluated with "probability". We all have the same probability in that gambling that does not involve skills.  In casino gambling, the rules give us a higher probability to lose than to gain,  so on the long run the casino gains and we lose.  Only if skills are involved, the probability can turn in our favor... or against... depending on our skills being good or bad.

 

A smart person will never gamble, not a single dollar.  What we all do in life is "risk taking", a rational decision that depends on our smartness, but where there is still a component of randomness.

True, but no luck also can win ah. Like my ex colleague. Whatever im buy, they follow me to bets. Well, some of them already own their own condo and car too. Even ystd big win too, do you know France shockingly lost to Italy on Nation Leagues, everybody thought France winning so rate only 1.35 at SG Pools, myself I'm Italy supporter, so lost also im bet Italy with rate 8.00 actually. But Italy win 3-1 actually, shocking big profits for me. Even ystd morning Brazil win 1-0 too, actually I'm win more than lost. Haha.

Always go for Argentina, England, Brazil, Italy, etc, is enough. This team win more than lost. Haha. Its a strategy in football betting world, not luck.

Perhaps.  But the probability is minuscule.  Same with winning the big prize in a lottery.   We should not seek minuscule probabilities.  After all, there is a minuscule probability that we fall dead every day...

Never give up on the tiniest flicker of hope; it is what kept life moving in spite of overwhelming adversity.

Thank you for your remark about my native country. My feelings also always go for Argentina.  However, you are not the only one who notices that these countries have better teams whose probability of winning are higher.  Isn't this reflected in the odds of your betting?

Thanks, I second your opinion.  We should always keep up hope, although with realism.  In cases where we should not give up on the tiniest flicker of hope, we have much, much more to gain if the hope succeeds, like a beloved or ourselves recovering from a deadly disease, as compared to... some money!

Not to show off ya, clarify only. See this morning Nation Leagues round, again im win on Portugal 2-1 & Spain 4-1 , both round again im earn total of 5.2k sgd from SG Pools tickets. Haha. Almost two month free salary of this amount, im get overnight in 2 hours football match, but normal ppl need work two month salary. Of coz other ppl got notices the rate too in SG pools there but not many want to buy big amounts, some think its small rate so win a bit not worth. Mine opinion small rate also good because im bet large amounts for sure win match especially strong country. Portugal have Ronaldo, Spain have Torres, haha. 90% sure win game actually. See spain rate, its only 1.78 , but im betting $5k sgd so 5,000 X 1.78 = $8,900 , minus my 5k, I'm profits 3.9k already.

Its actually a strategy in gambling football in SG Pools. Example, this morning 4.45am match for Colombia vs Argentina, many say its 1-1 but im not believe. So, the rate in SG Pools is Colombia 2.80 vs Argentina 2.40, myself betting 10k each on both side actually in tickets. Because either side win then im win back my money plus profits. Unless its draw only I'm lost. But based on experience, they wont easily let draw because their spirits is to win enemy. Turn out now Colombia win 2-1 , Argentina lost. So, my 10k bet on Colombia 2.80 rate, come back $28k, mean im get back my betting money 20k, plus profits 8k extra now. Normal ppl need work 3-4 month for 8k, me get in two hour football match SG Pools. Haha. Tht why im agree gambling can make you rich topic.

And also in football world bets, remember dont bet a match when strong team in right side, which is away team no matter how strong it is. Because left side always home team, home stadium got home crowd advantages. Sew today morning, Brazil at away team also lost to Paraguay, shocking defeat. Lucky im no bet too. Always bet football in left side, home team. It's my strategy to gamble football. Rich mah this week me, win quite a lot profits from nation leagues & world cup qualifiers 2026, yay.
