I have said this dozen of times when i wanted to quit smoking and drinking but more than dozen that i failed myself .

so Instead of saying ?i did my best to forget those vises and i won.

same as in gambling, when i am still active , i use totell myself each time I lose that I will quit gambling but never that i won against this until  my wife helps me with it .

I quit gambling in 1990 I used and still use Gamblers Anonymous
I quite illegal drugs in 1992 some pot on my birthday . pot was not legal at the time
I quite cigarettes in 1996 I used Nicotine Anonymous

All drug urges are gone
All cigarette urges are gone
Gambling urges are in control and for the most part in full control.

while we are different from leaving gambling completely because I only quit Smoking. drinking and drugs back in 2010 but gambling? I know my limit now so Am just playing to have fun ..
never that i gamble now just to win but to enjoy and if become a winner then I may just lucky and happy standing my table.

This is more or less with me and drinking. I go long time periods and then have a quality glass of stock or vodka or tequila. Then go a long period of time and repeat.

Sometimes a month sometime 2 months without any. It is not a big issue and never really was.
I was raised in a family that had occasional drinkers not daily or weekly maybe monthly which is more or less what I do.

I don't want to be disappointed again I've been in the past, so I prefer to be moderate at 99k you put in a lot of high numbers so I prefer something that will not disappoint me but I'm hoping that I am wrong and it is much higher than what I voted I will be happy on my wrong prediction if it will go higher than 99k but I will be very excited to see it go 350k, then we are not far from the 1 million mark.

99k would be a total disaster for mining side of the game.

Miners need 125-145k not to be crushed.

So Trumps was found guilty what do you all think about this and Justice for all in America.

I put he will appeal it and it is not over yet.

I used Tradeogre exchange few times before when I needed to exchange some altcoins and everything worked fine.
They exist for years and they are known for having strict no-kyc policy, but I don't know if something changed in last few months/years.
However, I wouldn't recommend holding any coins there or on any other centralized exchange.

I mine coin a convert to coin b and pull it out.

Gambling should be fun and in such a way that you spend money to the extent that it does not present a problem in your everyday life. Anything more than that is a problem that should not be ignored because it will only get bigger.

Regarding decisions in life, I would say that there are people who have a strong will and attitude, and when they say something, they do it - unlike those others who talk a lot and promise, but in the end everything remains just an empty story. It's not just about gambling, quitting smoking or drinking alcohol is also a big challenge, but it's not something that's unachievable.

I know quitting vices can be done. It takes effort and work to do it. But I am so much better off without cigarettes gambling and drugs. The life quality is much better. I am 67 years old and doing shit like this instead

I have 12 steps to first floor from kitchen in second floor.

so I am still  discovering just how many steps / flights of stairs I can do.

I WENT to doctor  to check the operation healing so doctor was happy. But he saw me early so I decided to do one set at lunch vs 2 one at breakfast one at dinner.

SINCE I did just one set I did 240 steps up and down which is 20 flights of stairs up and down. IT is real cardio work. I COULD do more steps than 240 I am now past 8 minutes time. WANT TO ADD to steps and time.

I decided to try to do 1 set a day and get to 15-20 minutes

I did 276 steps or 23 flights of stairs today in 9 minutes and 2 seconds.

After dinner I will do relaxed cycle time with rubber band curls.

I work upper body and allow my legs a stretch exercise.

The dual stair workout was not allowing me recovery time

Along with walking on the beach with my wife of 37 plus years.

and posting here and on bitcointalk making coin as I type

I picked over 60.

I have been holding silver for a while. Hoping to make a good profit on selling it over the next 18-24 months.

Well the rtx a4000 and the rtx a5000 are selling well on ebay.

But I have found a coin Xelis to mine it seems kind of okay. The key is will it crash and burn or expand.

Good as I do have a decent amount of grin. I wonder if anyone is holding grin?

 I mine it and have some  coins.  I also may want to liquidate it one day and can not seem to find a USA based exchange that will let me trade it.

Even though I'm not a fan of privacy coins, I wish you profit with GRIN in this bullrun. Honestly, the GRIN price's downward trend makes me really worried, I don't have enough courage and belief to invest in GRIN.

There are two exchanges with quite large GRIN volume, CoinW ~ $110K/day and GateIO ~ $30K/day, you can try to register an account and use them to trade GRIN.

I AM able to mine and hodl it kind of endlessly. But not in big amounts. I think I am at about 18000 of them not much.
