Ask yourself as a business man will you happy when new competition comes up?

Banks will traditionally be against anything that has the potential to affect their business. Traditional banks have been against even fintechs because they reduced their customer base, cryptocurrency has the ability to also affect the customer base of these banks that is why they are against it.

The finance network is becoming more competitive than we expected and the banks always want to be number one in the finance chain, Banks have failed to update the systems they don't have anything to offer other than to help you save money and there will be monthly charges for maintenance and many more. but aside from the bitcoin network, it is an investment that, whenever it increases, it increases alongside your money, Investing there might be risky but it is better than leaving your money dormant. you will gradually profit from your money invested without stress or even anyone knowing what you are doing with it. and Bitcoin being decentralized makes it overly interesting. your privacy is secured.  and they are not happy with the inception of Bitcoin the fact is that Bitcoin offers more than what banks can offer, and people already see Bitcoin as legal tender, and Bitcoin has been recognized as a payment method in some parts of the world some people still don't want bitcoin but that is their problem people that want will continue investing.
 

It is imperative that our leaders show compassion and empathy for the people they serve, and take action to address the needs of the people. They should learn from the examples of those who have failed their followers, and realize that ultimately, they will be accountable to God for their actions. Good leadership is vital to the well-being of a nation, and the leaders of Nigeria must take this responsibility seriously. And is as a result of the current regime

The enemy of success identified here is procrastination. Procrastination is the delay in taking action or the inability to exert action immediately. Procrastination means setting goals but failing to start the process of achieving the goal. Procrastination means knowing you have to read but keeps postponing the time to start reading. Procrastination means having a work in mind and resources at hand but lacking the zeal to utilize the resources at that time.

Procrastination is an evil to success and this accounts for the reason a lot of potentials are yet to be unraveled. The ability to chase dreams is so challenging to some people that they feel tomorrow is the best time to pursue their dreams not knowing that now is the best time.

Most people have failed to succeed because they have never started the journey of success. This I have described as failure at arrival. It will interest us to know that success is for the risk taker and not the comfort seeker. Risk here means starting not minding the perceived challenges. And so, to succeed you must start!
 

You are right about Nigeria having talented and well gifted individuals in production but just as I usually say that no matter what we produce here, you can't match it up with international standards and that is basically because our government do not create an enabling environment for her citizen to showcase their talents and skills, so that they can possibly sponsor them to acquire more knowledge that will bring out the best that can match up with international standards. What I observed is that few of us that went abroad to get more knowledge on production, after being certified, the foreign countries usually hire them to work for them and considering the current state of our country and it's economy, no one will decline such an offer so these are the part of the many reasons why our economy is not growing and to me, it's all as a result of the selfish interests of our political leaders.

Professional gamblers who gamble on daily basis a d some who sees it as a means of survival , will only see you as not been skilled enough and that's why you would see it like it's not lucrative enough gambling as a means of making money probably on daily basis. Just like you go to work every day and eventually have your pay day by weekends or months ends, so aer strategies in gambling that get such gamblers to earn daily or weekly and sometimes monthly but it's all relative and dependent on the strategy they are applying to get such.

It's very possible to make gambling a job and probably a means of livelihood, as a matter of fact, in my country, I know of a man who gambles daily as his means of livelihood and he's not poor, he's got a house  and even others that he uses for his real  estate business all of which were gotten gambling.

I don't even know why someone would even think of making gambling as a source of income, I mean there is absolutely no certainty to what will happen the next minute with your gambling session so you relying on that is completely absurd and should I say share stupidity to have such mentality. Like you said success rate is never assured on every gambling session so their is absolutely no way to make this as an ends means.
 

Sincerely this requires precision, and also the type of game such gambler chooses to play. The gambler must first have a good, balance source of income and the most needed will be Risk Management in his gambling habits, what will bring breakthrough is chance meeting opportunity but the Truth is not everyone get there. Many return with Addition, debts, Financial crisis, etc.
The only stable way is passive which is Affiliation, promotion, of gambling sites.
Be cautious, build a better life and gamble responsibly.

In reality no one is rich from gambling or can even maintain and increase his money consistently in gambling to support him, if it were true it would be the most popular industry in the whole world, maybe even the founder of a global company would rather gamble than having to work hard all day and think hard to develop his business if he can easily get money in gambling through luck.

And yes that person in the end only depends on what he makes from work not from gambling, even the money from work is spent on gambling, so where is the right thing here if someone gets more money in gambling, it's not that difficult and only luck might be able to give him that, my point is that there is no sure thing in gambling, gambling to earn money is not a true money solution for survival.
Don't ever think that gambling will give you money for free in the easiest way like a game or pressing a button and watching the machine work.
 

The proper answer to your question is no, it is very unpleasing and a bad reason to gamble. Gambling should never be taken as a source of income, gambling is something we do for fun despite with the intentions of wanting to get profit but that does not mean we should depend on it in order to take care of our bills and needs. There is no certainty of winning any gambling participation so why risk our finance into something that has lesser probability of working out.

I have heard the word professional gambling several times and they are seen as people whose main source of income comes through gambling. When you search further, you will see that this set of people are those who have once been won big. Profession gamblers could also be seen as individuals who have full control over their gambling activities. Apart from those who have won big or have enough money aside to take care of their need, anyone who depends on gambling for survival will die of hunger. I might be wrong, but I am speaking based on experience. Most of the unemployed gamblers that I know ended up becoming beggars until they decided to get jobs. Gambling is an unpredictable terrain, which makes income from there unstable. And with an inconsistent source of income, survival will become a problem.

Gambling addiction is process in which an individual cannot control their urge in gambling even when they tend to lose. They are willing to sacrifice their most valuable assets with the hope of winning. A story was told of a young man in my community who used his only son for gambling because he was so addicted that he can't do without gambling in a day. he can do anything when it comes to gambling. I also know people who are wealthy today through gambling. So, is it wrong to be too addicted to gambling? how can it be control or how can one manage gambling?
 

If you want to borrow money, there must be a collateral. If there is not collateral, there must be one or more guarantors. I do not think anyone can be a guarantor of a gambler. It is the father that have the debt and if he dies, his family will pay with the properties or works that the father left on earth. I do not think the son have any problem with his own property. That is why it is good to have your own property and be independent.

The high rate of gamblers who take loan for gambling purposes is quite alarming, and most of them are fathers to kids. Most of them don't end up taking care of their debt before passing. What happens to the funds, when the lender comes for his money? It's quite a tough one for a person who isn't a gambler to inherit a trouble from a gambling dad. Such things also increase the anger of the society on gamblers, because the addicts are, also, good at extending their problem gambling to other close relatives. Could it be talked through in the law court?

This is outrageous men, how would you kill someone for possession of hard drugs, so just because someone choses to take a hard drug then you end his life, how is this a good solution to the problem, why not rehabilitation, in fact jailing is a waste of time, maybe the jails have been filled up and they want to just waste any new intake.

Since gambling is a something you cannot manipulate the result to be favoring you, you don't need to take gambling as your source of income, and even though you see yourself in the dream about to take gambling as source of income rebuke it and stay away from anything that will make you to take gambling as a source of income.

Many people has loss everything they have on gambling, because they take gambling as source of income which is a wrong decision that can make someone useless in the society, no matter how educated you are in the society because people hate those people that allow gambling to finish their career.

Nothing will make me to take gambling as source of income, because I know that is not everyday winning no matter how experience you are in gambling.

but only a few gamblers are able to become professional players in games that rely on strategy such as poker or cards, and even though they can rely on their skills and experience in gambling, it is still too risky because it could be that other people are smarter than them and it can make them lose a lot of money in gambling. so it is better for a person to find another job other than gambling to be able to get money and not rely on gambling completely because it is risky.

Fact, anyone who chooses gambling as a source of income will live to regret someday because there is this mentality that is attached to gambling in the sense that when you are lucky to win it looks like the winning is gonna keep coming every day and by so doing, addiction begins and you can't do without gambling and will literally use money from other sources to fund your gambling which is to say that gambling can never or should never stand as a source of income.

People who succeed more in gambling are literally people that doesn't take it serious if they lose or win and these set of people have other jobs and businesses they do that gives them huge money so they just see gambling as part of having fun and in the process most of them even record huge wins because they don't take to many risks and they play according to how they can endure in a case of losses.

It's a question I asked myself this evening while playing a Slot game on a telegram casino.
I asked myself this question, and was puzzled for a while because I was actually confused of what exactly to answer myself, I wasn't sure if money was what I wanted from gambling, or whether I was just playing to have fun, or whether I was gambling for both money and fun.

And honestly, I am still confused, because I've thought of money being what I wanted, then "what is my actual target?, what amount will be enough?" is the next question I asked myself, and I realized I didn't actually have any amount in mind, and this made me conclude that money wasnt really what I wanted, but it's not fun either, cus I cant have fun if I am not winning, like I would always say, " there is no fun in losing money".

So, I thought I should throw this question to the gambling community here, maybe I could draw some ideas from your ideas and contributions.

1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?

Or

Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?

Let's have a healthy discussion.
