It depends on the nature of the addicts, egoistic addicts probably don't care about the consequences. They only think about how to get money for gambling and they just focus on chasing the winning. These types of addicts will be difficult to handle, it is because they have a complicated nature. IMO, the basic problem isn't about the addiction but it is about their nature/characteristics.

While for addicts who love their close people, I think most of them won't ruin the happiness of the people they love. They won't take the money from their close people, but they prefer to borrow money from other people.

If they become aware of their actions and the bad impacts, they should feel remorse. But it is not easy to make them aware.

Of course, Perez must want to sign a top striker for their main striker. After Benzema left the club and joined At Ittihad, Real Madrid has no striker. There was a rumor Real Madrid negotiating for Harry Kane, but I am not sure Real Madrid is still interested to sign him now. Recently, we heard that Tottenham management sets Harry Kane's price is about £200 million. I thik Real Madrid doesn't want to pay Harry Kane at that price, it is too expensive for 29 years old striker. Moreover, Harry Kane's market value is actually only about £90 million. It is a bit strange that Daniel Levy and Tottenham management wants £200 million for Harry Kane's transfer fees. So, Real Madrid should look for another striker, Osimhen, Vlahovic or Firmino is still available on the market. I believe these strikers will be much cheaper than Harry Kane's price (£200 million).

Basically, trading or gambling isn't for everyone. Only people who understand trading or gambling deserve to join it. Anyway, I think it is not only about luck, here are many things to consider. In trading, it is required to have enough knowledge, skills, and experience. Without sufficient knowledge/skills, a trader can lose all their money and probably be difficult to determine the entry/exit time. So, knowledge/skills have a big role in trading. While in gambling, people need to understand how to manage their money and must have good self-control. So, they know how to spend money in gambling in the right way. And people also can avoid addiction if they have good self-control.

Well, regarding luck, it is actually not only in gambling. When people trade coins, they sometimes also rely on luck. Traders who trade without proper analysis and don't do their own research can be categorized as trading for luck. Since they just guess the price change, it is almost similar to the gambling style. 

Unfortunately, people don't want SEC to be the arbitrator. SEC seems not only acting as an arbitrator, but I think they also act as the regulator in crypto space now. They seem to have the authority for this, they don't know that crypto is a decentralized system. So, there is no need for an arbitrator or regulator. This only makes crypto market condition becomes worse, SEC activity creates big negative issues. At the end of the day, I am sure SEC main purpose is to make people afraid of crypto investment.

Although Mbappe already said to stay in PSG, I agree that it is not impossible to sign Mbappe as long as the transfer window is opened. Moreover, Tottenham management already set the price for Harry Kane with an unreasonable price. I heard they want €200m for the transfer fees, it is a too excessive amount of money. For a striker that is almost 30 years old, I'm sure Real Madrid will stop to negotiate for Harry Kane. Now, Real Madrid may focus on Mbappe or Osimhen. Sure, there is still a long time before the end of the transfer window, but Real Madrid has many competitors to sign a top striker like Mbappe and Osimhen. It is not easy to sign a top striker to replace Benzema's role in Real Madrid, I'm worried Real Madrid fails to sign a top CF for the next season.

Since there is no big change in Chelsea squad, I also doubt that Chelsea will have a better performance in the next season. Chelsea needs to rebuild their attacking line if they are serious to improve their performance. So far, Cheslea can't sign a top striker, they are only rumored to sign a top striker. The current strikers of Chelsea are not really productive, they rarely scored during the last season.

Liverpool seems a bit better, they still have a good squad although they failed to perform at their best in the last season. If Liverpool can sign a top striker in the current transfer window, they surely may have a chance to perform well in the next season. Well, they have enough wingers, but they only have Nunez in the CF position. So, I agree that they need a CF (striker) now.

As far as I know, Florentino Pérez is still interested and has a plan to sign Mbappe. But he stated Real Madrid possibly sign Mbappe next year. We all know that Mbappe's price is very expensive, Real Madrid is waiting for Mbappe's price a bit lower. Mbappe also has confirmed that he wants to stay in PSG this season. However, if it is possible, Real Madrid may sign him this year because Real Madrid is urgent to have a new striker. We don't know what to happen in the next few weeks, Mbappe may change his mind and decide to leave PSG sooner. Let's see where Mbappe plays this year!

Mbappe has a special contract with PSG, that's why he is unable to leave PSG very soon. It is not about the money only, it is about how Real Madrid ability to negotiate with PSG. I'm sure Real Madrid already reached a personal agreement with Mabappe, but Real Madrid has difficulty to reach an agreement with PSG management.

Since he is an anti-crypto stance, we shouldn't be surprised to hear negative statements from him. He must spread FUDs related to the issue around Binance and Coinbase. He thinks the end of Binance and Coinbase means the end of crypto, but it is absolutely the wrong perception. There are many other top exchanges, crypto will survive even if those 2 major exchanges are shut down. People who have crypto assets on those exchanges will move their assets to other major exchanges.

I also think the same, those who spread FUDs may try to have an entry price as lower as possible. They expect the FUDs will make people panic and the prices to freefall because people sell their coins immediately. This scheme already happened many times, some people try to manipulate crypto market by spreading FUDs. Sadly, this scheme seems still work effectively because people are easy to feel worried.

I think most newbies know this, they must know that every business needs a process to be successful. But they may hurry to use bigger funds because they saw some professional traders can earn thousands of dollars from crypto trading. They don't know if it requires good skills and experience, it won't be achieved instantly.

Sure. Using borrowing money isn't recommended. Besides we trade under pressure, we also will be in trouble if we get losses and we can't repay the money on time. I believe we will try to get loan money from another person if we experience the problem. So, the borrowing money is getting bigger and bigger.

Controlling emotion is always difficult to do, even it is an experienced trader.
We need to experience a lot of exercises to master our emotions. So, it should take a long time, especially for beginners/newbies who never know crypto.

Personally, I doubt Man United to sign Mbappe. Man United may have the money to sign him, but Mbappe should prioritize Real Madrid over Man United. Real Madrid is his dream team and Real Madrid offers a bigger chance to win any top trophies. Specifically, Real Madrid is a perfect team for Mbappe if he dreams to win UCL trophy. So, he should assume to have a better career in Real Madrid. Well, because of these reasons, I'm very doubtful if Man United can change Mbappe's mind. Since the chance is likely very small, I think Man United is better to look for another striker.

In addition, Real Madrid constantly monitors Mbappe's situation in PSG. If Mbappe has the intention to leave PSG, Real Madrid must be the first team to know it. So, Real Madrid is likely leading the competition to sign Mbappe.

Many newcomers or beginners don't understand what gambling is. They don't know how to deal with gambling risks, they probably only hear about instant winning from other gamblers. So, it is very reasonable if they misunderstand gambling, they only know the benefits and have no knowledge about the risks. But they will understand it gradually, specifically when they learn seriously how to gamble in a proper way or in a safe way. Unfortunately, there are many newcomers who have no intention to learn, they are only obsessed with the profits. These types of newcomers will be easy to lose huge money and have a big chance of being addicted. In conclusion, not every newcomer focuses on profits only and will end up with severe losses. Those who gamble carefully and want to learn how to deal with gambling risks, probably will be safe from bad impacts or the risks of gambling.

Do you switch your Bitcoin to another coin?
I think you shouldn't switch your Bitcoin, most people prioritize Bitcoin as their main asset.
If you still have money, you just need to add your wallets with more coins. However, I suggest prioritizing top altcoins, old coins are good for investment. But if you really want to invest in new coins, you must do deep research, many new coins have weak fundamentals. Don't buy those new coins that seem difficult to develop in the future!

It doesn't support learning, people don't need to learn if they know how to use AI. 
I suspect people become lazier when AI can cover every field in life, people no longer want to force their efforts.

By the way, I agree that not every job can be done by AI. Some jobs with complicated tasks are difficult to handle by AI, only humans can do it. We must understand that AI still has a limitation, while the human mind is endless. The human mind is improving, while AI technology is programmed and planned. There should be some jobs that only people can handle it, AI won't be a solution for some specified jobs.

Indeed. Real Madrid wanted to sign Mbappe since a few years ago. Sadly, they failed because PSG gave an interesting contract to Mbappe. I don't think Mbappe has a bad relationship with PSG management, he accepted the contract extension means he is happy there. But Mbappe often has a problem with some PSG players, including Messi and Neymar. He has gone too far as a player, he even has the right to manage the team. I think it leads a bad relationship with some players.

Agree. Real Madrid must sign a proper player to replace Benzema's position. So far, there are some players rumored to sign by Real Madrid management but there is not enough good progress until now. Harry Kane, Mbappe, and Osimhen are the ideal player to replace Benzema. Unfortunately, signing these players are difficult because they are expensive and there are many other clubs interested as well.

Yep. It may be too early for him to decide joining Chelsea. When Chelsea ended up the season with a bad result, he has no chance to change his decision because he is already a part of Chelsea squad. However, if he can play well in Chelsea, there should be many offers from other clubs. Or if he can help Chelsea to perform better, Chelsea may have a better position in EPL league in the next season. There should be a chance for him to have a good career in EPL, Chelsea also is rebuilding their squad.

Sure, Nkunku is a great player and Pochettino may improve Cheslea performance in the next season. However, I'm not sure Chelsea will target for winning EPL trophy in the next season. They may target a realistic goal, they probably want to return their position in the top 4 (UCL zone). I think it is Chelsea goal for the next season, but it won't be easy since EPL becomes more competitive.

Harusnya kecil kemungkinan member lama melakukan plagiarism karena mereka sudah paham resikonya. Plagiarism berarti siap-siap untuk dinonaktifkan dari forum, itu merupakan hukuman terberat yang ada. Member lama juga pasti sudah membaca aturan yang tertera di thread aturan yang sudah dibuat oleh forum. Sedangkan untuk member baru, mungkin ada yang belum menyadari aturan tersebut. Mereka juga mungkin belum paham resikonya jika melakukan plagiarism. Jadinya potensi member baru untuk melakukan plagiarism lebih tinggi karena ketidaktahuan mereka. Tapi tentu tidak semua member baru seperti itu, mereka yang hati-hati dan teliti pasti baca dulu aturan sebelum melakukan aktivitas apapaun di forum.

Betul. Jumlah merit melebihi jumlah aktivitas mencerminkan kualitas seseorang. Yang seperti ini biasanya punya kualitas post di atas rata-rata. Tentu itu sebuah kebanggaan, namun jangan sampai cepat puas. Konsistensi adalah hal yang juga tidak kalah penting. Harapannya mereka bisa mempertahankan kualitas post mereka, sehingga sampai rank atas pun jumlah meritnya tetap melebihi jumlah aktivitasnya.

Tidak salah jika memprioritaskan pendistribusian sMeritnya di board lokal SFI. Semoga ente tetap objektif, pilih post yang memang benar-benar layak. Support itu dari berbagai rank, tidak hanya dari Legendary. Malah kelihatannya yang rank Hero dan SR lebih banyak yang berkontribusi. Kadang yang sudah rank legend agak jarang dapat merit, alhasil sMerit juga minim. 

Indeed. For someone who trades without sufficient knowledge and less experience, it is almost the same as gambling. He is unable to expect a good chance to take profits by trading carelessly, the chance for losses will be higher. That's why trading should require sufficient knowledge and experience, these things will lead us to the right way in trading. We also need to have a good mentality, we can't trade if we do it with emotions. For people who are difficult to control emotions, better to stay away from trading. When we trade, we must do it with a calm mind. It really helps us in determining our decision during trading. Regarding gambling, it has no way to improve the chance to win, especially in luck-based games. Using a certain tactic/strategy won't be effective since the win isn't determined by the strategy.

There will be always rumors about Mbappe and Real Madrid. It is not only in this forum but there are still some media that spread the rumors about Mbappe and Real Madrid. Besides Mabppe has clarified it, Florentino Pérez also has stated to sign Mbappe in the next year. His price is still too expensive if Real Madrid signs him this transfer season. Real Madrid may have the money, but Florentino Pérez doesn't want to pay Mbappe with unrealistic money.

Sure, Ancelotti must target other players, just forget Mbappe temporarily. Harry Kane and Osimhen are also good strikers, these players deserve to replace Benzema, too. I really hope Real Madrid wants to consider these players and they should be more serious to negotiate with Tottenham/Napoli.
