101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 20, 2024, 11:38:57 AM
snip

The match was definitely dominated by Lazio, 2nd consecutive win for them. 0-1 win, the result was pretty much expected. Maybe I did expect Lazio to score more than one in this match. But I think that. As long as they are getting the three points, I think they will be fine. The goal difference of Lazio is really bad by the way. especially considering the fact that they are in the sixth position of the table. But I guess that is not the main priority right now. The main priority is to get three points from any matches that they can. There is a chance that they will finish in the fifth position but it is definitely going to be really hard. but at the same time certainly not impossible. And that's what they will be thinking right now.
after last week Lazio won 4-1 over Salernitana, this time they narrowly won 1-0 over Genoa, their next opponent is Juventus and i'm sure this will not be an easy match.

in another match, Juventus were held to a draw by Cagliari, Cagliari were lucky because they got 2 penalties in the 30th and 36th minutes, if there was no own goal scored by Dossena in the 87th minute then Juventus would be the team that would lose to Cagliari.  Juventus is still in 3rd position with 62 points and it is difficult for them to be in 2nd position chasing Milan.



102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: April 20, 2024, 10:18:56 AM
Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling. One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.
18+ does not mean only allowing experienced people to gamble but means only allowing someone who is mature in mind and mentality to gamble.  it is impossible for 14 year old children to be allowed to gamble, they are still at school, besides that they still get money from their parents while those over 20 years of age usually already work and have their own income.

the danger is that if they are immature in their thinking and mental gambling, they will do silly things such as stealing, cheating other people or robbing to get gambling capital.

One of my colleagues told me that his salary is lower now than it was five years ago. Sadly, the price of goods is rising.
everyone in the world is currently feeling the same thing, unstoppable inflation means that many people can no longer afford to buy goods at the same price 5 years ago, even those who are running a business are also feeling it, the price of basic materials for running a business has risen several percent, some have even increased by 100% while the costs charged to customers are still the same as before the costs increased.

nowadays we have to live wisely and frugally, don't let excessive spending make us run out of money quickly.
104  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hodling or selling? on: April 19, 2024, 08:04:49 PM
Well holding bitcoin is a matter of choice, those who held bitcoin for this long are people who made a strong decision and stood by it. You might think HODLing  like $1-2k will be less risky in terms of dip compeard to $20k, but you should not think of the dip but think of the rise because if a $20k investment rise by %20 you would have a huge increase compeard to a $1-2k investment. We should look at the profit when investing. a dip in price should be an advantage to accumulate more. There is no need to be afraid of HODLing for long because surely bitcoin is a good and reliable assets which stand to be the best digital asset so far.
Experienced investors definitely see that a dip is an opportunity, that's why there is the slogan buy the dip, it's not easy to do that, especially as we see the value of bitcoin continuing to decline, but if we continue to accumulate the bitcoin we have by continuing to buy, we will get extraordinary benefits.  i know that everyone's time is different, but selling the loss of bitcoin you have because of FUD is stupid act.

The more you read, the easier it is to resist temptation. I would at least wait until the end of the year if I was willing to sell and had bitcoin available
Good luck with your target time, because bearish is normal in the crypto market.
105  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial Advice for a young millionaire on: April 19, 2024, 07:10:26 PM
What financial advice would you give to a young boy, probably, at the age of 18 who just received a whole lots of money from the inheritance of his late father who was a trader and multimillionaire in the textile industry?

The boy is the only child of the widower and does not seem to be interested in the same line of business and even when he does, he requires more maturity to be able to manage the business such as graduating from the college, etc.
i have never met someone like this, but if i knew him, i would tell the child to go to school first, running a business at a very young age will only end in losses, surely the company founded by his father can run on autopilot because of management already good.

every person who has a big business must have predicted this, when he suddenly dies then someone has to continue, indeed these men definitely want their children to carry on but with someone who is still very young, it is very difficult to be able to run the company, and also politics in business it's disgusting, young people will only be down.
106  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: advice for a beginner on: April 19, 2024, 05:41:48 PM
Hello, I'm a new trader. I started a month ago. I deposited $100, and now I've lost $40. Any advice for me? I watched some YouTube videos and found a technical analysis video which helped a lot. I started not losing as much. Sometimes I even earn. But even though, I feel so lost. Like every day, I see some random coins get boosted. Some people earn from how they know that coin will go up. I'm sorry for my bad English; it's not my first language.
if i may ask, what coin did you buy?  Did you buy the coin based on analysis or just following along?  Do you know the basic theory of trading?

sorry if above, i asked a question like that, many beginner traders join in the market because they are inspired by someone in the video they watched, even though that is not something that can be followed easily, to become a profitable trader then combine skill + patience + mentality, that's important so what you do is trade, not gamble...

my advice for beginner traders, if you want to learn, choose coins that already have a good reputation, such as Bbitcoin, Ethereum or BNB, so that you don't have to worry anymore about the prices of those 3 coins not going up.
107  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Fulfilling dreams with agriculture! on: April 19, 2024, 05:13:19 PM
Accumulating bitcoins has been my dream for a long time, but it never became possible due to lack of extra money. As I am a student it is not possible for me to earn extra money.

After many attempts I came up with a way that is possible for family prosperity and fulfilling my dreams. Being a student I am not able to get a job so after much thought an idea came up,
my father has some cultivable land which is about 20-22 percent.Where I plant some papaya seedlings, it is possible to sell papayas worth around $250-$300 per month from here as it is a high yielding papaya variety.
even though you are still a student, i really agree with your desire to open a papaya farm that belongs to your family, especially since agriculture is a business that will always be needed and will not be replaced, maybe in the future you will become a success papaya farmer.

If I deposit $100 or $120 worth of bitcoins per month from here, how much will it benefit me? Is it right for me to invest more $ in Bitcoin than this? And should I invest the whole money in Bitcoin?
invest in bitcoin with the right amount every month (for example, you set $100 then stick to that amount) then you can use the remaining money to buy something or put it in your emergency savings.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 19, 2024, 04:34:37 PM
They have locked in the title in the Bundesliga, so you can be sure they will focus on chasing the Europa League title this season. The challenge that is close to them is the match against AS Roma, AS Roma themselves have performed well in the Europa League so far, they were able to get rid of AC Milan who are actually better on paper than them, but they managed to win in 2 legs at once.
Opportunities are very open for Leverkusen, but they must focus on their closest match against AS Roma. In the European League, AS Roma is a team that can surprise. When many people doubted them, they were able to show their best, and last season they appeared in the final match, even though in the end they lost.
Even though there are 4 matches remaining, Leverkusen are certain to be champions of the Bundesliga, their points are no longer possible for Bayern to catch up, what makes me a little surprised is that VfB and Bayern have the same points, it would be very embarrassing if Bayern were shifted to 3rd place.

Leverkusen's current focus is the European League, their opponent is actually a team that is not very stable, because De Rossi has not shown that Roma has changed drastically, in contrast to Alonso, he has succeeded in making Leverkusen an unbeatable team this season in all competitions.  Leverkusen's chances of getting into the final are much wider than Roma's.
109  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is not a lifetime job. on: April 19, 2024, 02:40:34 PM
Trading is very risky because professional traders may make profit from trading with their own strategy but they also cannot always guarantee their profit. because no one can guarantee when the market will move in any direction, trading is very risky for everyone, no matter how professional. so it is better to use trading for part time and should not decide to lead life depending on trading. a separate source of passive income is essential to meet the regular expenses of life. so trading should not be thought of as a profession or a source of lifetime income in any way
When I first started trading, I suffered huge losses due to many wrong decisions. 
it's very normal if you lose at the beginning when trying to trade, 99% of traders at the beginning definitely experience the same thing (me too)

But since I gradually gained good experience in trading, I did not face any big loss. But we always start trading with good experience in the market.
good for you, you want to learn from your past mistakes, you don't stop trading because you know that it's all just a process, failure at the beginning is normal, giving up only makes everything in vain.

But we can get good money from trading and if there is no wrong decision we risk big loss.
people do trading of course to make money and profits, and out there there are many traders who make big money from trading, therefore it's not wrong for everyone to try to become a trader because the results they get are very good and quite profitable if they make a mistake can be minimized as small as possible.

If more people realise that decentralized systems isn't like a banking or centralized system were you can go and report a transaction and they seize the persons money or track the person( although its possible if they are not smart enough) then you would be more careful when doing deals here.

Absolutely. Bitcoin transaction cannot be undone. I would like to draw attention to the virus that has caused a lot of losses recently. It infects you computer and does nothing except it waits until you make a transaction and it changes the address you just copied to another one. Please, guys, double check what you are pasting.
Times are getting crazier, because it's hard to get money nowadays, lots of people do crazy things, a few days ago my neighbor was cheated by his "future" wife out of hundreds of millions of rupiah, the woman hijacked the man's smartphone and withdrew all of the man's savings, i wonder if this guy has Bitcoin on his smartphone, it's definitely not safe, however, fraudsters can come in any form and usually in the form of friends and close people, so be careful with people close to you, it's not a problem if you invest suspicious of them.
111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Geopolitical Tension and its effects on Gambling on: April 19, 2024, 09:31:12 AM
From the last two days, we have experienced some major Geopolitical Tension as Iran invaded Israel and there is a fear whole world including the United States of America, Russia, China and other Middle Eastern/ Asian countries may be directly involved in this war if the situation does not norm quickly.

We have seen some big dumps in the world stock market and crypto market and the world's business may get affected by this situation. I would like to know what impact will it have on gambling ?

Do people gamble less when they see such tensions around the globe?
Maybe for some people, the war going on in the Middle East this time will make them postpone their desire to gamble, just imagine the difficulty of earning money now will definitely make people hold on to their money.  but for those who are addicted to gambling, i doubt they will refrain from gambling even when they don't have any money, they still gamble lol.

Will the gambling sites/bookies will have an impact on this situation?
affected of course, however, the war definitely had a big impact on all lines of business including the gambling business.
112  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: April 19, 2024, 08:47:40 AM
snip
I’m truth, one can not always buy Bitcoin at the very dip, can you?
Remember that Bitcoin is volatile and even the dip doesn’t announce itself to be the dip neither does it rest there for a long time and should you be waiting on the dip to take a buy, you might be waiting for such a long time and wasting a lot of buy opportunities along the way.

One mistake I feel people make now is that, we often seem to be more realistic about Bitcoin losses and don’t think much of the losses we make to other industries like gambling and whatever we are invested in. Even the money we might spend on hoes, lol… But yeah, those are the real losses.

In fact, you’ve not loss your Bitcoin even in the event of a bearish market and you’ve not sold. I made a thread about this only the day before Loss in Bitcoin holding is a dollar validated idea. So long as you continue to hold your Bitcoin through the bear season, though the values might drop as per dollar validation, your Bitcoin stays the same and that ain’t a loss. It would go up again and you see the price appreciation, the more reason why holding is a good practice and you could always buy more when the bears are pulling on price.
For this reason, you yourself must make a good plan regarding your investment in Bitcoin, it's difficult to survive holding Bitcoin when you don't have money to cover your needs, usually those who use the DCA method, already have good finances, they know that the money they buy for Bitcoin is their cold money that they can hold onto for the next few years.
  • set a budget for your needs
  • have income from other sources
  • increase information by reading the news
  • make a long-term plan for investing in bitcoin using the DCA concept
  • patience
as long as you don't sell the bitcoins you have during a bearish market, the amount of bitcoins you have will never change, only the value will certainly fluctuate.

Liverpool managed to beat Atalanta away from home but unfortunately couldn't get through the round as they lost 3-0 in the first leg.Although they scored an early penalty against Atalanta, they couldn't find enough goals to get through the round.They were in control of the match but I think we can say that they didn't put much effort to get through the round.
Marseille, on the other hand, ended their bad run with a win over Benfica.Marseille, who lost 2-1 to Benfica in the first match, won 1-0 in the second match and the match went into extra time.When the score did not change in extra time, they managed to eliminate their opponent on penalties.
Again, this was surprising, Liverpool managed to qualify after getting a draw against West Ham while Liverpool lost 3-1 on aggregate to Atalanta so it was official again that the club from the EPL was eliminated and did not make it to the semifinals. 

i predict that the match between Atalanta vs Marseille will be tight, Atalanta who managed to beat Liverpool is not a team that gives up easily, meanwhile for Leverkusen vs Roma, it will also be a great match, Alonso's success is in sight.

Arteta is the coach he learned a lot when he was working with Guardiola at Manchester City but he is still not experienced enough like Guardiola and he needs to learn more. But I think he is performing much better than last season in Arsenal and considering the games we have seen so far from Arsenal I was even expecting to see Arsenal beat Bayern Munich in the Champions League because technically they had much better sitation than Bayern Munich.
However, the race is not just between Arsenal and Mcnshter City but Liverpool is also close to these two teams and Klopp doesn't want to leave Liverpool without a trophy at the end of this season. But I think Arsenal has much harder games ahead compared to the two other teams.
losing at home was actually quite painful for Arsenal, even though in the 1st leg Arsenal managed to score a draw at Bayern's home ground.  However, i see that Arsenal's performance has been quite bad since they lost 2-0 to Aston Villa.

unexpectedly, in this season's UCL semifinals, not a single EPL team made it to the semifinals, Arsenal and Man City were eliminated.  Indeed, the competition in UCL is very tight, it is not easy to advance to the semifinals.
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 18, 2024, 10:49:45 PM
PSG was lucky because Borussia Dortmund was their opponent, if it had been Atletico Madrid, it would have been very difficult to go to the UCL final. Even so, PSG can't underestimate Borussia Dortmund, because sometimes Borussia Dortmund can produce unexpected results.

On the other side of the UCL match we'll also see Bayern Munich - Real Madrid, PSG fans hope that Bayern Munich will make it to the final, but is that possible considering that even Real Madrid can win against Manchester City who are more favored?

PSG are lucky indeed, they were lucky by facing the weakest teams among those present and even in the semifinals they won't face the hardest teams like Real Madrid or Bayern Munich.
PSG should now hope to see Real Madrid eliminated by Bayern Munich because Bayern are easier for them than Real and for once they could hope to get the Champions League title. Obviously they should not underestimate Borussia Dortmund Roll Eyes
discussing PSG in the Champions League, we can't say that Dortmund is a weak team because just look at how Dortmund destroyed ATM with a score of 4-2, and their meeting will take place at the Signal Iduna Park stadium.  PSG must be careful, especially since winning the UCL has been PSG's dream for a long time, if Enrique is successful in bringing PSG to win the UCL then he will make new history for PSG.

I almost won the bet but Real Madrid couldn't maintain the lead until full time, although in the end Los Blancos escaped on penalties.

It's a real payback for last season when Manchester City beat Real Madrid and went on to become champions, will Real Madrid be the same? It's still very possible with its potential.

My assumption about the prediction of the Champion League Final now (Real Madrid vs PSG) will they meet? I think Real Madrid can still qualify, while PSG was in the same group with Dortmund and the results were better for Dortmund.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your bet because in the end Madrid vs Man City was a penalty shootout.

PSG was really unexpected, they were lucky to win 4-1 against Barcelona, if Araujo didn't get a red card then there was a big chance for Barcelona to get rid of PSG, most likely PSG would win against Dortmund later, and finally Madrid would meet PSG in the final (sorry this is just my prediction)

What are your thoughts do you believe BTC will remain the greatest crypto currency in the world.
you explained at length lol, but one thing is certain there will be no altcoin that can replace bitcoin, the reason is simple:

  • Bitcoin's limited circulation, which will always be 21 million, is this limited supply which is one of the strengths of Bitcoin's appeal.
  • Bitcoin has the strongest community, which is unshakable by anything and will not move to other altcoins
  • Even though Bitcoin is closely monitored in various countries, the government is definitely studying it
  • Bitcoin prices are very volatile, this is a big attraction

Maybe someone can add more Grin

There are still 6 matches to be played before the end of this year, anything can still happen. Not that Manchester City has won the league already. But you are not wrong that it might be hard for Arsenal or Liverpool to stay at the top again. Arsenal has always disappointed me. You said you will be sad if Arsenal did not win, why? It is just a football and nothing more than that. I wish Arsenal to win in the last season, also wishing the club to win in this season but they are disappointing.
it has been very difficult for liverpool and arsenal to catch up with man city, especially since there are only 4 games remaining, liverpool's defeat against crystal palace was really beyond expectations, even though i really believe liverpool can win, the reality is different, liverpool lost by a narrow score 1-0.  it will be difficult to catch up with the 2 point difference from Man City (when Man City's next opponents are the weak team) it looks like they will be the EPL champions again this season.

I had suggested my friend to quit gambling and I had feel that he totally get addicted to the gambling.Which was the cause for the many high risk to get into the complete loss.But he clarify me,he had loss the money because he had follow the same betting strategy with the changing algorithm of the gambling site.From his experience,I had learned we should not follow the same betting style for the changing algorithm.

Now he had decided to start the gambling again with the loan money to balance the previous loss of 2000$.What is your opinion on this,I had suggested him to go to the regular job to reduce the loan in step by step to reduce the loan burden.But he had word of “We can earn,Where we had loss everything “.Share your opinion on this.
You must be prepared to lose your money if you are willing to lend your money to your friend.

In my principle, if the person is a gambler then i will not want to lend him my money, it is different if he is a businessman.  all gambling addicts think like that, they think that the mistakes they make can be corrected in the future but it's all just a trap in their minds, nonsense with the strategies they improve, they will only repeat and repeat the mistakes of the past, losing is their fate.

Yes, it won't be difficult to choose Real Madrid as the favorite team to win La Liga title this season. It is quite obvious that Real Madrid will secure the title if they can keep winning in the next few matches. Sure, it will be very clear if Real Madrid can defeat Barcelona in the upcoming El Clasico. Real Madrid will play against Barcelona in Bernabeu in matchday 32. I think Real Madrid won't miss the chance to beat Barcelona and wider the point gap to be 11 points.
The El Clasico match will be a big match because Madrid is playing at home and on paper Madrid's chance of winning is 55%.  But we can't say that Madrid will easily face Barcelona because in the last few matches, Barcelona has not been defeated, their performance is improving.

Since Real Madrid performed more consistently than Real Madrid, most people will also do the same way, they will bet for the win of Real Madrid. I really expect it will come true, so the win will secure Real Madrid position and they surely wins the trophy of La Liga this season.
I believe what you mean is that Madrid plays more consistently than Barcelona!

Madrid's consistency is truly beyond doubt, in fact they are a team that is difficult to beat, but everything will be determined in the El Clasico match later, even though Barcelona will find it difficult to catch up with Madrid, they still have a chance for a draw.
