Is it normal for you to put in $20 000 year?

All depends on your own budget and what people think they can affford to loose. If it becomes to much maybe a break is in order. I often take extended breaks from gambling so as to keep it within my own limits. I try to stick to my golden rule of "Never Gamble To Pay The Rent & Don't Gamble The Rent"
Good luck with it all

been there done it got the t shirt and the video your best bet is contact your casino and put in a deposit limit per day week or month then that stops you chasing,and when you chase you keep chasing in the forlorn hope the next win will get you out,its in your own hands.

Hiya: Short answer is, "No, it is Not". If you are putting in 20k a year, what are you cashing out in that same year? What is your net loss? No matter what the answrs are, at the end of the day, 'If you are Happy, then gret. If Not.......

If you got that kinda money to burn sure. Why not. Then again, with that kinda money to burn I'd rather travel the world and visit a casino here and there, but that's just me

Im just asking to try to get an answer how much you people put in.
I maybe withdraw $5000 that i put in again...
Yes, i limit my deposites with the casinos that allow it.
But just wanted to know what your "normal" budget it.
20 grand is to much, even for me.

It would be easy if the casino was letting me win. I just started playing online in May, within a few months I've deposited over $7k at one casino, but withdrew over $8k (most I was ever down was $200). I just kept it all in my gambling funds and had fun, too bad other casinos had to suck up that profit.

$20K/year is fine...if you're making upwards of $200K/year...
But, it's all relative. $200 to me may be like $20K to someone else.
Just make sure you have plenty in savings. I'd be kicking myself in the ass and never forgive myself if I lost a great job 5 years down the road, then think back about the $100K I _could_ have saved instead of blowing it at the casinos.
People just need to remember to only gamble with money that they're prepared to lose, and never see again. If you go into it with that mentality, you're going to be more relaxed and have a much more fun time. If you're sweating the money, or that money could be put to better use, then you have a problem.

Never!
For me putting that much in a casino per year would represent over 30% of my annual income and that would indicate a big problem.

I was actually very surprised recently to find that I've put in almost 9K so far this year. I have cash withdrawals of $8760, plus there have been smaller wins that just went to moneybookers and got played online.
If you have only withdrawn $5K from $20K in deposits, you might want to think about your cashout goals. Don't try to recover what you've lost, that's a sure road to ruin. If I've made $200 - $300, I withdraw, even if I end up playing somewhere else. I used to try for higher sums, I find I do better aiming lower.
Good luck to you, whatever decision you make. I find it very useful to only use a prepaid card and one online wallet. It requires me to preplan my deposits, a payment from my bank takes a couple of days, so no chasing is possible for me.

I looked over all 3 of my accounts and I have deposited about 10 grand for the year and my results are the following...
Riverbelle + $1300 on the year, this could be the 3rd consecutive year I finished ahead with Riverbelle
Club World - $1035, thought it was lil more than that but ok.
3dice, -$100 but only been on there for few weeks.
Interesting, Im glad this thread was made because it was worth the 10 mins of time to do the research and see where I stand 9 months into the year, im ahead! About $65 lol
I should just stick with Riverbelle:notworthy

Hmmmm, I tend to deposit around $7500 per year. I gamble more than this as winnings are withdrawn and put back in casinos.
However, I have withdrawn (and spent - not on gambling 
) around $4000.00 this year. Given the year isn't yet over I figure I'm down about $1000. Posts above are definately right about not gambling money you cannot afford to lose!

Imo 20K is way too much, regardless of the income. I am down approximately 1 K this year but always sticked to my monthly budget. When its exhausted I dont deposit but play free tournaments which are offered by many casinos. Can be very thrilling as well and you cant lose, only win.
