Gambling is risky game of money from which most people lose and just a few wins. Gambling too is addictive and fun especially when you're winning and that's why most people can't get away from gambling once they get in it.
In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

1. You can lose from the very start. Happened to me many times.

2. No one wins from gambling in the long run(proved many times)

3. Everything can be considered as a sickness: eating, watching TV series, playing games, etc.

What I'm saying is gambling is an ordinary thing: we are gambling with death every minute.

Do you really trust online bitcoin casinos you play at?

I think all lost in casino, except the owner.

You don't have to trust them just looking at their site, you can read reviews, feedback, you can check if the site is provably fair by yourself. The other story is whether you can win there. I think you can't, but that's not because a site can't be trusted.
11783  Other / Politics & Society / Re: should women be blamed for wearing daring dress thus reason they were raped on: May 29, 2016, 06:26:44 PM
Not such a bad question.

I'd say a woman wearing daring dress knows the effect it will have on men. It was invented for that sole purpose.
So such woman shouldn't blame later any man having a daring behavior.

The limit being, again, set by the law. You shouldn't be blamed for looking at such a woman and even daring asking her out. She doesn't like it? Well that's her problem. She says men are pigs? Well she shouldn't dress like a sow. (ever seen how much more insulting "sow" sounds? i mean feminists always yell everywhere that men are pigs but try calling a woman a sow you gonna see what you gonna see xD).

But again, any physical contact or insult are a crime in the eye of the law. So as you're question concerns rape, well the answer is rather obvious. She could be naked that wouldn't make any difference  Smiley

"your liberty stops where the one of others begin". You don't touch her liberty by looking or whistling, at least not more that she's doing by her look. But that's all you have the right to do to a stranger without its consent. Anything more is, and should always be, forbidden and punished.

Good point and very nicely put. I agree with almost every word. If go by a food stall in the street and see a delicious fruit lying on it would you take it and then say it was looking so seductive that's why I took it? No, you'll be punished for taking it without paying... Well maybe not the best comparison, but what I'm trying to say is seductive looks is no excuse for raping.
11784  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: May 29, 2016, 06:15:18 PM
Just recently got into BTC; I have 2.5 saved up.
Plan on taking 25% of each of my paychecks and accumulating and seeing what will happen in 2017 or later in the year.

Thoughts? Ideas? Speculation? Advice? Tips?

 Huh

You are doing the right thing IMO. Unfortunately I can't afford to take 25% of my payment and turn it into Bitcoin. I spend all the money I earn each month sometimes even waiting 2-3 days to the next payment almost without a dollar in my pocket. BUT I have no debts and I have almost 1 BTC so I guess the life is good. )
11785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: May 29, 2016, 05:56:08 PM
Yeah, I'm rich from gambling. My negative profit is just slightly over $25 so that's why I say I'm rich - I haven't lost much. If you are a gambler there are two options:

1. You might lose a lot

2. You might lose a little
11786  Other / Off-topic / Re: The bitcoin in daily life on: May 29, 2016, 05:51:40 PM
For now Bitcoin for me is an investment mostly. I do sell a litle bit from time to time when I need some cash and have no other way to get it, but generally I'm trying not to.
11787  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Mobile phones and cancer. on: May 29, 2016, 04:50:38 PM
No, they don't.

The amount of known cancer cases haven't changed significantly since the seventies actually. But mobile phone usage has increased by several billion since the start of the nineties. If mobile phones would cause cancer somehow then this would be incredibly easy to see in the amount of reported cancer cases.

Absolutely. Now we have more than enough numbers to do a statistic research. Mobile companies would be sued thousand times and this would cause the end of mobile phones' era. All these things aren't happening though.
11788  Economy / Economics / Re: So BitCoin is at $520 right now... Sell or Keep for a few more days? on: May 29, 2016, 04:12:52 PM
I said it briefly at $532/BTC today. It just dropped down to $520. if you had a large investment (~50 Bitcoins), so that makes a big difference in a few thousand dollars...

Should i keep it for a little longer and hope it jumps again?
Or sell now as it seems to have already peaked?

Closely watch,if bitcoin will keep above 520$ level,than we will see 650$ soon
personally i think btc will be at 650$

I really like your prediction! Hope you are right. I always thought Bitcoin will be over $500 by this Summer but it looks like it will be even more than that. Hope you are right mate.
11789  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: May 29, 2016, 03:53:36 PM
Because if your gaining, your mind think that you can earn more. And if your losing, your mind think that you can recover your loss.
this kind of thing is like a hypnotist
yes, indeed sometimes gambling can always hypnotize everyone to be able to gamble.

Yeah, actually any addiction is like that. Take food addiction for example,  you are like hypnotized by food and can't resist eating it. ) Don't eat too much if you don't want to look ugly, don't gamble too much if you don't want to poor as a rat.
11790  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Accurate, unbias news media that is dedicated to crytocurrency development? on: May 29, 2016, 03:44:26 PM
What are the sources of your crytocurrency news and economy analysis?

Coindesk and cointelegraph are two of the trusted sites I am suscribed but I stumble the best and the breaking news about crypto currency here in Bitcointalk ...

I agree. I check Coindesk and cointelegraph from time to time but I've noticed that in case something worth attention appears there you'll find it pretty soon here on Bitcointalk. So Bitcointalk is the best IMO.
11791  Economy / Speculation / Re: LOOK BITCOIN IS GOING UP. on: May 28, 2016, 02:55:57 PM
Very much satisfied with today's price, never expected that it will reach there so early, and now it really excites me to see what will be the price at halving.

Although I wish the price Bitcoin to go up more and more I think the rising we are seeing now is due to coming halving, so after the halving it will not increase significantly. I expect around $550 but not higher.
11792  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Forget trans bathrooms! Now you can choose to be a dog on: May 28, 2016, 02:42:51 PM
LOL, the face on that woman is priceless. You can practically hear her thinking "I hope no one I know sees this!".

Actually I think all of that was staged and the woman is wearing that face to make us believe it's real. Reminds of the movie I love, What We Do in the Shadows, only that movie was fun this program was not.
11793  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: May 28, 2016, 01:48:22 PM
If you mean sell everything and buy Bitcoin with the money you are probably right. This is just the right time to do it. ) I'm joking of course, but seriously don't sell your coins now, cause it's the worst time to do it.
11794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: i win every day some btc, it's easy on: May 28, 2016, 11:33:49 AM
I do not believe that game i am sure game like that surely take sides to admin
and finally the player will lose my experience like that Sad

need use magic numbers too.
ends of amount bet use 77 or 55

for example amount 0.01 is wrong!!
Right bet 0.0177 or 0.0155

Are you even serious? "Magic numbers"? Who else except you have won anything on that site? If you want to promote your site start a Signature campaign and do giveaways. Do not think you are smarter than those who do it.
11795  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you buying bitcoins? Why? on: May 28, 2016, 11:21:22 AM
I have kept buying on hold now, will wait for price drop, as today's price is very bigger for me, may be it will come down in next couple of days.

I wouldn't count on that happening in the future. The price of Bitcoin might stay as it is now or go slightly higher but not in the other direction. $500 for 1 BTC is a pretty fair price for today.
11796  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: May 27, 2016, 01:58:31 PM
It is really hard to say how much you need to retire in 20 years and that is because the value of the Bitcoin is always changing and that is risky for the most people.
Because some people dont even know what they have to do with the Bitcoin so they are also making some mistakes.

We cannot afford to think of that long, as we don't know how long is the life of bitcoin, and whether it will be alive after next 20 years or not.

Yes but you can that say about any prediction. If you think of it long enough it becomes a philosophical question, but still we can make some predictions just for the fun of it IMO. So my prediction is around 100 BTC will be more than enough to retire in 20 years if you are not going to live a life of a billionaire of course.
11797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: May 27, 2016, 01:48:51 PM
gambling is so addicting because it is a easy way for people to try and make some fast money. Playing games and being able to win money sounds like music to some peoples ears and they just keep going.
Very nice parable, gambling like music that makes us sleep in the arms of the music.
Gambling will never let you sleep because by doing it you are thrilled feeling mixed emotions and even if you won you don't want to go to sleep because you want some more actions, you can only sleep when you have no money to gamble.

To me gambling is like an ocean during a very hot day: you want to go in for a while and that's ok, but if you are in too much you might get cold or even be eaten by sharks.
11798  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: May 27, 2016, 08:36:13 AM
Most of us have both. Unfortunately we can't have only Bitcoin Wallet to serve all our needs nowadays. I know some people are having fun trying to live using a Bitcoin Wallet only and I also know that some of them succeed but if you have a family to care about that's impossible now.
11799  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drugs fuck you up, man on: May 27, 2016, 08:30:44 AM
People who using drugs is have no fun and have no sens to live in normal state so they are trying to change the world around them using drugs, not so good anyway.

You are right in a way but what about the legal drugs which millions of people use everyday? That's a shame most people think they are harmless just because they are legal.
11800  Economy / Economics / Re: Why gold price going down? on: May 27, 2016, 08:14:08 AM
Why is gold price falling now, even when bitcoin price going up?


I want to know that.

The price of gold is going down because gold was overpriced a lot and more and more people start to realize that. Bitcoin on the other hand was underestimated by many and now we can see that the price of it is going up slowly but steadily.

P.S. I was nicely surprized today seeing 474,8 )
