11401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: September 04, 2016, 06:37:59 AM
I'm sure many gambler keeps coming back because they already lose much money/bitcoins on gambling and they want to try winning back their loses.

I agree, gamblers wanted to get back what they lose that's why they keep coming back hoping that the next time they will be lucky. But the sad thing is that most of the time instead of getting back the losses, they lose more because they keep betting bigger amount and then supposedly he got lucky and get back his losses, he wanted to get more and then become greedy betting more and more until such time that he will lose it all again and then the cycle starts again. He will stop only until all his funds are depleted or will really have a conviction that he will just stop because he is losing too much already.
Well, that is the beauty of gambling, you cannot win if you are aiming for the money if you are not a professional gamble, emotion is the big problem because we cannot manage it and it will give us distraction in our gambling plan which mostly give us a problem in the end.
11402  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: September 03, 2016, 09:00:09 AM
I'm not sure about it, for me in my life the main stuff is steady income, and when i'm not reciving enough money, im always in bad mood, so better not to try different jobs with unexpecting result.

Not everyone has a steady income, you are lucky you have it. I'm constantly trying different jobs because I can't find a steady one and I'm sure there are many people like me. But you have a point, if your income is good and steady it's better not to jump to something unknown.

I think the happy place in between is getting your wages in BTC or at least a portion.  Really, if you look at Bitcoin for what it is, a currency, the question the OP poses is something like saying to an America, "Would you quit your full time job to make dollars?". 
I think you did not get the point of the question, the OP means that would you quit your job to go full time with working in the bitcoin world? That is the argument here and of course most of the members are not promoting to quit their job because they can do both effectively.

How to make money!? It was my first question when i found Bitcoin!

Faucets, faucets, faucets.. No way! A lot of time for nothing! You always have to do something to win money! In this thread i found few offers:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=985550.0

Typing captcha is sh*t but there are some nice freelance offers! Good luck!


Captcha and faucets are both time and eyes killer, you would not learn from that job, I would rather recommend signature campaign rather than that. In signature campaign, you will not only earn from the information you can read in the forum but you will also earn at the same time.
11404  Economy / Economics / Re: Big Crash coming on: September 03, 2016, 08:47:23 AM
Most of the short crashes were coming in Bitcoin's life. But it doesn't mean that the bitcoin would be end.
Now we can see recently, Bitfinex has been hacked, and also bitcoin price down, and within 2 months bitcoin is remain downing, So in my view, thats all are incident and always be happen in future but bitcoin will be remain in future.
There was a big hacked that has happen before which is bigger than in Bitfinex but still bitcoin has recovered and like we have witness in the recent, I believe hacking will not let bitcoin down or crash its economy because we are decentralize and the who system is safe, we can store our money in a safer place like cold wallet.
11405  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: September 03, 2016, 08:14:08 AM
I am not sure it's right way to sell everything, i believe that holding bitcoins for a long time is the best way for a lazy people. Wink

Yeah lazy people will prefer to hold their coins without doing anything with it, but a wise person will try to grow his coins from trading to get additional benefits in future.

There are high risk involved in trading. For the conservatives, it is wiser to hold on to them.
The thing is if you want big return you will have to venture on high risk activity and though trading is high risk but there is a bigger chance that we can learn how to master the right technique in trading and as a result it would give us more income that focus on long term investment only.
11406  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: September 03, 2016, 08:10:13 AM
The smartest way to save money is to control yourself not spend any. Or if you really want to take risk just invest in a safe company that you know that will not run. Just make sure that invest 20% - 40% of your money only and the rest store it in a nice hot wallet. 60% saved money every week or every month will result $$ after a year.

That is certainly true comrades, it is the main thing that we have to take care is our emotions or thoughts. If we cannot control the thoughts or emotions we then our desire to save money is only a plan that will never happen, for we must be more concerned with the desires of the mind or emotions than the desires of our hearts
There is no room of emotion in gambling if you are serious with your goal to make money, you need to set aside that and you will have to focus straight on your game plan with no emotions involves, emotions will make us weak and will be the hindrance for our success.
11407  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: September 03, 2016, 08:01:02 AM
yes i will accept my salary in bitcoin because bitcoin is very useful in everywhere corner of the wold and we can buy any product through bitcoin with easily and with fastest transaction .
Well, that would help a lot when you spend regularly online, but I doubts others would follow that kind of mentality of yours, I think they are more concern on the value of their money rather than the opportunity to transact online, there problem is the price fluctuation which makes the value of their salary also fluctuate.
11408  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcoin and Porn on: September 02, 2016, 09:29:52 AM
I would go for bitcoin, porn will not give you the amount of happiness bitcoin can. Focusing on watching porn will only destroy your health while when you focus your time with bitcoin you can get more benefits and you will enjoy your life in the future.
11409  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin help poor countries? on: September 02, 2016, 09:27:35 AM
Definitely, poor countries benefits in using bitcoin is they can save on the remittances expenses, when you are in the poor country usually the people who has a family will go work in a more develop country and will send their money back to their family but with the high remittance fee they cannot enjoy the whole amount of salary but with bitcoin they can send with a little amount of charges.
11410  Other / Off-topic / Re: What value does Bitcoin bring to you? on: September 02, 2016, 09:24:48 AM
It gives me more value because I can transact online very fast and it is not just a currency as I can also use this for my investment. Actually I am happy now because I have a lot of opportunity that I am currently enjoying because of bitcoin.
11411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: September 02, 2016, 09:22:14 AM
You started gambling for fun, so you have to find another thing that brings you fun

But in reality it's not easy to find more attractive than gambling, gambling has so much charm because it give us chance to make money easily, that is very big reason which lead the people to get addicted, but if someone get succeed to do this than it is very easy to stay away from gambling.
It actually is easy to find other things that are fun besides gambling, but because of the addiction you could fail to see joy in those other things.
I've also read a few scientific articles that state it's better to try and quit after a loss than right after you've won due to the negative emotions you will connect to gambling. Getting professional help is usually required though.
That is not necessary if you believe that gambling is only for fun, that is the worst action of a gamble. Addiction is what you called a disease where you will not be able to enjoy gambling anymore but you will always think of it and with that it will not give you a positive result.
11412  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today? on: September 02, 2016, 08:59:08 AM
I think yes, it's good for long term investment to buy 1 bitcoin today. Because i speculate the price of bitcoin will stable up to the next month and it might be increase in the end of 2016.
I hope God will listen to your speculation so we all gonna be selling for profit, I believe the price will increase but I would love to see it next month although I am not so confident that it will happen just that easily.
11413  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin goes up very high should i buy a house? on: September 02, 2016, 08:53:15 AM

Remember the pizza guy with his 10.000 coins? think what you can buy in 2015 with all those coins.


Please stop using this argument. If not for the 'pizza guy' and others who were giving away hundreds if not thousands of coins, Bitcoin probably would never go off the ground.
Let us move on and forget about the past, we should be focus more on the current situation and I know in the near future we cannot only buy pizza with the money in our hand, believe in bitcoin and do not ever take for granted the opportunity that is in our hands now.
11414  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: September 02, 2016, 07:49:25 AM
No target, still buying what I can afford to lose. When the time comes, I won't need fiat, I'll just spend from my btc savings. Which btw,I consider my btc a form of savings account, not a standard investment so I don't really plan to be in and out at the markets whim. Just letting what happens happen. I figure if we ever hit $100k USD per BTC I might buy something nice, but I wouldn't use all my holdings.

Its difficult to expect that high price from bitcoin in future, I don't think bitcoin can go over $10k in future and that is also not sure whether it will achieve that price or not.
Of course it can go that big amount but the question is all about the right time because I do not see it will happen the soonest, we hardly even see the amount of $1,000 again.
yeah I think if you wait for the price of $ 1,000. maybe you will find that prices in some years to come. because I think it would be very difficult to reach that price. better to sell at the right price
Well considering the results from the last halving, is quite a sure that bitcoin will reach 1000 dollars on the next halving, that is predicted to be reached at 2020, soo lets say bitcoin will get a small ammount all years till achieve those. The question is if you able to save bitcoin for the next years and close your eyes to the several opportunities to double and invest your bitcoins, you may get those value if nothing bad happens to bitcoin.
You do not need to put all your money for long term investment because there are opportunities anytime so you need to take that opportunity. To be effective in investing you have to divide your investment into short term and long term.
11415  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: September 02, 2016, 07:41:29 AM
I think it is not the best decision at the time. The main reason is that bitcoin is a highly volatile currency, so I could not take the risk of having it as my salary, because the price may change every time that I get it, and manage it will be really difficult.

That is true. You can accept a portion of your salary in Bitcoin.
That way, you will still be able to cover your daily expenses even if Bitcoin crashes.
But you will benefit from gains in the currency.
Good for us but for the others they think of their salary so much because they need the whole amount to feed their family, life is really hard when you are just a mere worker, you will receive a low salary but your needs keep rising. Only those you receive big income will allow that to happen to them.
11416  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you buy Bitcoins? on: September 02, 2016, 07:35:59 AM
I do not buy bitcoin from the very beginning.  What I have is what I have earned in
this forum. I do not buy because I do not have money. That's why I am very keen in earning some bits here because I really needed the  money for myi daily expenses.
That is sad to hear you will miss the opportunity to invest, I hope you will find your steady income and will not only rely on your income working here, it is not enough and believe me I know that because I have tried it before and I am lucky now I have a stable day job.
11417  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can a newbie earn bitcoins????? on: September 02, 2016, 07:26:07 AM
Newbie is just an rank in this forum, if you hold any technical skills then you can check in services section and you may earn even higher in compare to high rank accounts that are earning in signature campaign.
Right, because the opportunity is not only for the rank up members of this forum, if you have the skills then you are free to do a certain task that pays well and more than what a signature campaign pays. Just find in the service section as I am pretty sure there are a lot of opportunities their.
11418  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: September 02, 2016, 07:16:32 AM
I believe it is better to trust in bitcoin than to trust only in fiat, considering that the inflation rate for this currency is a big problem. I do not think it would be possible to use only cryptocurrencies these days, then I believe that despite the flaws found in fiat, the best alternative is to use both.
Nah, you don't get the real value of fiat, you are only looking at one side of the coin where in fact fiat is more powerful than bitcoin. We should believe in both as this two will work hand in hand to be successful. I convert my earnings in bitcoin to fiat so I believe in both.
11419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: September 02, 2016, 07:04:39 AM


I agree with you if you are just an ordinary gambler and you are just going to play with your excess money and you are just going to treat it for fun. Then you are not going to earn with it. But if you have ample capital as you play gambling for sure even you are going to lose you are able to manage to get back your loses as you have a lot of capital. And most of the people that has a lot of capital with gambling they are the ones who are earning easily with gambling.

I don't really think they can earn an easy money over gambling cause their is no such thing as easy earning over gambling even if they have a large amount of capital it is surely not infinite to not decrease a certain amount of numbers right cause nothing would last that long in these world even a big company get bankrupt too, maybe the method in playing gambling are easy to understand but the randomness in winning over it would not required a knowledge cause it is just a mere coincidence.
That's right no easy money over gambling and the feeling we got to bet on something it's just a coincidence at the time of winning the bet and that too make us go to inside a trap of addicted.
It is not a trap because when we were able to predict the outcome we win but the problem is on how to effectively continue our journey in gambling which a very difficult thing to do as everyone loses in the long run.
11420  Economy / Economics / Re: When do you buy Bitcoin ? on: September 02, 2016, 06:41:04 AM
it will be over 600 $ soon so you can buy btc now.
I do believe on that, it will happen because we have achieve that once this year and we have witness the price has stayed for a little bit so we will see the price to seat on that amount again, just be patient there are still remaining months to realize that so time for buying now.
