Gambling discussion / Re: A famous influencer lost more than $4000 in just 2 minutes.

« on: February 25, 2024, 01:50:45 PM »

I've seen that video also, but that guy is really betting huge, and he is also earning big, so he could easily earn his losses. Luckily for me, I haven't experienced that kind of huge loss as I always budget on what I should only bet and I am really disciplined in it and not go over the budget, but there are times like when I've already tripled my winning but I lose it later on, but I don't consider it a big loss as I used only my budget money.

Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble with what you can afford to lose can actually make a good return

People prefer to spend it and have some fun. This is the same with buying beer because others will say if you save it, then you'll be able to have some money, but even though it is true, people can't still stop it as they are having fun, so you can't really stop people from doing it. Also, in gambling, people mostly think about doubling the money they have now or having fun with it, so only a few people will be saving that money instead of betting it.

In fact gambling addiction is hard to quit and i have seen him continue to gamble even after winning big money. How do you see it reflected? I think that when i suddenly make big money from gambling, i will stop gambling and start a unique business with that money. Because then i don't want to lose money so i want to keep the money strong and that's why i stop gambling.

There are various types of gamblers who gamble just for fun even if they get rich as they have an allotted budget to spend on gambling activities, but for us like myself, who are casual gamblers I do bet when I am sure of winning as I am after money and sometimes for entertainment. I will not quit as long as it won't affect me as for sure I will be putting my money into business and gambling is just my relaxation and a form of entertainment.

Cryptocurrency Trading / Re: Are you using a Demo account to practice trading?

« on: February 15, 2024, 03:17:36 PM »

It is a controversial and highly debated topic about trading because others have their points, so this is with us about what is our strategy. Because for me every cent counts and if I do have a chance to earn money without spending money I will do it. So before I dive into trading, I always make sure that my winning percentage is high and know how to look out for high probability trades to make sure a winning so I do always go for demo accounts as well as to feel the platform that I will be using.

Bitcoin Forum / Re: Do you think it's possible for Bitcoin to reach a price of $288K?

Remember the early days of Bitcoin when it was practically worthless? Two pizzas in 2010 cost 10,000 BTC thanks to Laszlo Hanyecz the Bitcoin community for the first time understood the monetary value of Bitcoin.

From $30 in 2011 to $68350 in 2021 the journey of Bitcoin has been phenomenal. Some said it was a bubble that would burst soon and some said it was a Ponzi scheme while Bitcoin never stopped and surprised everyone against all odds. After 15 years of its existence, it is now a legal tender in the country. The US has approved all Bitcoin ETFs and is currently on the path of global adoption.

The Bitcoin halving is set to take place in 2024, and many in our community are eagerly anticipating this event. Recently, the price of Bitcoin has spiked, reaching $50,000 in December 2021. I have come across several articles predicting that the price of Bitcoin will reach $288,000 by December 2024.

Are you of the opinion that Bitcoin will reach its projected price point or do you think it will fall short of the target?

It is possible as Bitcoin is very volatile so there will be a possibility but right now it is really far from that price and there is a lot of selling pressure above it so it would be hard to break it. There will be a time when the price will reach that price but the question is when and for sure no one can predict it. What I am sure of is that I can witness it. Maybe I am old or young but I am still living at that time.

Bitcoin Forum / Re: Big fish - small fish feelings in Bitcoin industry.

When we say whale, they are already used to being at loss or gain in volatile markets, so they have the same feeling as those people who have been investing for a few years, but if we say newbie, it is not the same feeling as whale unless it is the first time, but usually not because the newbie is his first time, and you know the feeling of first time, so it is very different but it will just change over time.

Yes, even when someone gambles for fun they must have limits so that the gambling will not affect their financial condition. When a gambler does not set limits on their gambling activities, it means they will only gamble according to their pleasure - they don't care about how much money they will/have gambled. And this could lead to more serious cases such as gambling addiction which will worsen their mental condition.
Not only affects financial condition but also we have wasted a lot of time and even have nothing left for our loved ones. Health issues is also one that we are taking into consideration when talking about gambling addiction. Limits should always be there in everything we do in our gambling activities.

In every aspect of life we should always have limits because if we don't, then for sure we will suffer either us or our loved ones. Most of the issues you'll encounter in gambling are financial, as you'll be in debt if you can't control yourself, and that will also affect your relationships with your family and others like health, etc. That is the start of you'll be ruining your life.

Economics , Sociology & Politics / Re: Education or Income Generating job, which will you chose first?

« on: February 08, 2024, 03:23:50 PM »

We both need it because let's say we choose job, you will have a hard time doing those tasks if you are not well educated. Yes it can be learned but the phase would take a long time so eventually you'll get fired unless there is a condition like you won't get fired even if you are very dumb and not contributing to work which is not possible. Also in education we do go to school because we want to have a good job.It is really good to start at first and not skip, the first step is having an education, and having a job is the second step.

Gambling discussion / Re: How can you cure a gambling addict?

« on: February 05, 2024, 05:59:15 PM »

There is no way that you can just help your friend by telling him. The gambler who is addicted to gambling should go to rehab and spend a few months or years there with the help of professionals. I am not sure how expensive it is, but this is the only way to stop an addiction because you cannot do it on your own. Ive seen a couple of people that went through rehab, and most of them got rid of their addiction.

Economics , Sociology & Politics / Re: Food Shortage

Quote from: Youngkhngdiddy on December 21, 2023, 11:08:02 AM

Food shortage is one situation in a nation that causes some consequences. Some countries are liable to food shortages and then they're left with less economic growth which they have to fix. Food and Agriculture has its own impact on the economy of a country and if left unattended to will definitely cause some negativities. There are correction processes that must be followed by countries that experience shortage and the key process should be diverting the focus of that nation to solely agriculture.
It's not an intentional action that causes shortage, sometimes it's climatic, sometimes it's due to less resources, so in such situations, there has to be alternative ways to generate resources for these nations. The government in turn ensures that they infuse more on planting and harvesting, so even as the food shortage tend to occur, there'll always be residual foods in store that'll go round and be available for the people.

There are times that it is intentional, and we don't know it like a few years ago that they are doing it so that they can control the price. Last year, we received tons of news about the storage facility holding some goods so that there would be shortages and a high price, and that is when they would sell them off. If the police didn't track it, then for sure prices keep continuing to increase.

Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling not fun for everyone!

If someone wants to make money by gambling it is quite a stupid idea, because they will not get the maximum money from gambling, on the contrary they might lose all their money. This is because gambling games have varying chances of winning, for example slots or games that rely on luck usually have quite low chances of winning, or poker usually depends on skill. Because the possibility of winning is low, it makes it very difficult for someone to make gambling their job to earn money, and because of this people should gamble for fun, regardless of whether they are rich or poor.

This is where you will lose more so it is really a stupid idea because you have a goal that is set in your mind to earn that day, so if you lose that day you won't get money, so there will be no food to be served on the table, which means you'll be pressured to win, so it is really a bad idea to treat it as a source of income. Also, it is not fun if we are thinking like this. You are not enjoying per game as you are just thinking to win, so the mindset should be to have fun.

Gambling discussion / Re: Control your emotions when gambling.

« on: January 30, 2024, 06:36:02 PM »

Quote from: MVL~$ on January 30, 2024, 06:18:09 PM

Every game has certain strategies to win. The trick in gambling is to control your emotions. When gambling, when you see that half of your capital is gone, you must stop gambling any further. Because it is a trap for you so that you can no longer profit from this gambling. Then you have to fully use your conscience so that you don't suffer from here.

But doesn't mean that if you have strategy your winning is guaranteed. It is just you have a chance on winning but if again the casino will decide your faith but when it comes to emotion that is really the key on winning no matter you lose some money because that is the time you wont be losing a lot like you go beyond from your budget also that is where you can decide when to stop also this is hard to control at first but if you work on it then you'll able to control it.

Bitcoin Forum / Re: How often do you buy bitcoins at this time?

« on: January 28, 2024, 02:56:09 PM »

I don't have a pattern for buying Bitcoin, I only buy it when I do have extra money to spend on it, and if I don't have any extra, I don't push myself to purchase it. It really depends on my salary and extra income, but I don't have a plan for selling it unless it is needed for an emergency and I don't have money. Right now I will hold it as long as it reaches my target price, but I won't sell it all. I will still hold some of it for the future.
