For me it's quite simple. If I don't have money to bet , I won't even open the website because I know from start that gambling the money I don't have can turn out quickly into a bad habit so I remind myself this everytime I want to gamble and I don't have the money. To stop gambling it's the same ...no money to spare = no money to bet but I know a lot of people who are making debts just to place a freaking bet and it's sad to see this.
those who are making debts just to play gambling are those person who's suffering in an obesession in gambling which ia unhealthy in their physical and menral health, If it's easy for you to quit gambling when you dont have money, then congrats because you're on your mind and you know what you should supposed to do if you ran out of money. Most improtantly, know your priorities rathen than your own happiness and vices in life. |

Take for instant, a seamstress without a degree only believes in acquiring a small space where they will sew. No advertisement, no promotions and the seamstress might do little or nothing at all to influence her brand. She only believes customers who passby will locate her. This act will only limit her customer base and possibly hinder the growth of her business. On the other hand, a degree holder who has undergone training on different marketing skills and how to reach out to customers no matter the distance will do better.
Academic pursuit makes one prepared for any opportunity. This opportunities might be delayed but when it finally comes, you should not be caught unprepared.
Skill application in the world of work and business is somewhat like that. When you decide to learn, there's no guarantee of success from the start, but learning increases the chances of achieving your goals more easily. Although it's not a surefire thing, with better odds, you can reach your objectives with a higher success rate. Educated individuals might not always outperform those without formal education... it depends on how someone approaches the world of work and business. Education isn't the sole factor that supports a person's success in their career or business... it's not the primary key. There are other factors that can influence a person's success apart from education. As we know that some business individuals who is now very successful in their life are the one who doesn't have any education at first, Some them became successful because of their natural intelligence and determination. At this age, Many people who has a bachelor degree but still dont have a successful career in life so I think, its not all about education, It's all about your will to work, your dreams, perseverance and determination to reach the success in life |

It is most likely that things will go south after you win because the excitement of the win will definitely put you in a psychological position that will make you see the wins as easy and then the money starts redcuing, in a bit to want to meet up with the amount it was. Thats gonna see you loose even more.
So that means, If you won a huge amount better to cash out the prize at first and pause for a moment and think well if you want to play again or it's okay to play again but do not use the whole prize that you've claimed, just use at least 5% of the money then it's up to you how will you manage to use that 5% in gambling, in that way you will prevent yourself losing the whole prize that you have while still playing. |

Avoid being emotional. I guess that's the number one thing. If you are emotional, you will be carried away by joy, greed, despair, etc. If you are winning and you're very emotional, you could end up losing everything. You think you're lucky and would continue to play even after winning big already. Or if you lost, you could be angry and you would chase your loss and try to recover it. This emotion is equally damaging. You would go home with a bigger loss.
One can never be too emotional when it comes to gambling. Always consider the facts and then a gambler has to make a decision. Just as excessive greed is not good, it is never good to be overly emotional. Losing a bet will make you sad but winning a bet will give you immense joy and because of that extreme joy you will be overly greedy and emotional if you bet your money in the wrong place again you can lose all the money. No matter how much money you make in betting, before placing your next bet you need to think whether you are betting in the right place or in the wrong place. Never take a bet thinking that whatever is in luck, you should be confident enough in yourself and then decide to bet. Over-emotional decision-making means losing your money. Why would you say that? In fact, as far as I know, most people who gamble cannot manage their emotions which makes them lose control and makes them lose a lot of money, not a few people are like this. It is a fact that losing is synonymous with sadness or disappointment and winning is synonymous with joy, excitement, happiness. There is no defeat that makes us happy even outside of gambling, I don't think there is. 'You win, you're happy, you lose, you just shut up bro". And I think when people lose in gambling, most people will feel upset about the defeat they get. And when they lose, there will be a sense of emotion that will make them want to pursue the losses they have lost and they may lose more money to pursue the losses. How to distinguish the right and wrong places? Doesn't gambling only rely on luck? Are there patterns and tricks to be able to get continuous wins? I think that's one of the reason that you must know prior in entering gambling world, everyone should at least learn how to manage their emotions, It's up to a person in what way they can manage their emotions, I also agree that everyone has a different level of emotional control and it's valid. It's also difficult to determine when to stop or when to proceed in gambling because we didn't know what will gonna happen if you're not planned it well. Does gambling only rely on luck? for me yes, but for others they have different strategies and plan when they gamble. |

One key advice, never gamble for "making money" or as a source of income to pay your bills. You should gamble for fun. Think of the losses as a "payment" for the entertainment and the profits as a "rewards" that you can use to play more. Never run after the losses. That will only cause you to lose more. And oh, remember, in the long run, it's the house that will always in. Plus, gamble only if you can afford to gamble. Think of gambling as a luxury that you can live without. If you do start gambling, and feel like you are doing it too much and can't stop, you should start talking to someone about it. But remember, precaution is better than cure.
Thet "gamble only if you can afford to gamble" Is very much true, Sometimes some people used to borrow a money to others or they will use their savings just to get along with others in gambling even in reality, they can't afford to play, which is very dangerous if you're starting to gamble. Never ever use a loan money because it will lead you in having a huge debt, worst case scenario; a bankruptcy. |

So, be some of the wise people in determining something, including in choosing the gambling site that we will visit.
At least find out and ask in this forum, there is a lot of information on sites that have good reputations in this forum, of course people will recommend the best and most trusted places for us to play because out there we don't necessarily get accurate information based on fake reviews that can be done by the casino, but this forum is based on the experiences of real people where there are no fake reviews as long as they are from users who have high rankings in the forum. I also always look for new casinos on this forum because it is safer for anyone who asks, you can directly see positive feedback from friends on the forum who may have tried playing on one of the recommended casino sites, of course with the reputation of their account too. It's impossible to cheat anyone, that's why it's important to ask what the best gambling sites are on this forum rather than asking out there. You're right! This forum helps a lot when it comes to looking for suggestions and recommendations also a lot of experts will extend their help just to make sure that all new comers in gambling will not going to experience any scam activities.Informations from the experts and pioneers here is one of a trusted for me than asking someone outside this forum . |

I want to know about the cost of living and average income in each country. Can I ask that here?
For comparison, may I ask how much a standard meal in your country costs for one meal? what is the standard food menu? What is the average monthly and annual income in your country? Please those who answer can use calculations in USD
Note: I don't need the tables issued by the government because they are usually different from the reality on the ground
In Philippines, The basic monthly salary offer is $250.00- $300.00 and the average income is $650.00 but it depends on your location because we have a city and provincial rate. Provincial rate is lower than the city rate because of the cost of living in City is much higher especially Around BGC, Makati and Manila. For the cost of one meal is $3.00 and the standard food menu from Fast food chain is chicken, Rice and Drinks. To save money, better to cook your own food than buying outside, as well as having your own car to lessen your Transportation expenses. |

Let us discuss in this thread the things one should completely avoid while gambling. Here are some suggestions according to me :
1) Do not gamble in work area : It is not ethical to do so. Your employer is paying you to work for him for certain hours. If you waste these hours for gambling, it is a bad habit.
2) Do not take loan to gamble: Some young guys are so irresponsible that they take loans to gamble. It is a very bad move and can even produce life threatening conditions in future when loan recover agents knock your door.
Gambling during working hours is indeed unethical and strictly prohibited. It may affects your productivity and attitude towards your work. There's a sanction once your employer know that you're doing it, grave offense and can lead to termination as well. So it's better to have a time management on yourself and must do gambling if you're having a spare time just like your rest days and leaves. On the 2nd part, I think that's obvious to know that it's not okay to borrow a money just for gambling because it may lead you to huge debt and bankruptcy. Most people who takes loan just for gambling are suffering in a gambling addiction. |

In an online casino, most of their requirements with their lottery live experiences have a designated month-only event, more particularly with Christmas, New Year, Halloween, and valentines Day, have a time frame only like those occasions in terms of physical lottery still depends on their requirements too, base on my country once you win and you didn't claim for a while you can claim it after couple of years once you still have the ticket of course with proper good condition to make a verification if this is legitimate or not. Before participating always try to read the rules and regulations.
Right. Always read the terms and conditions. If you know when to expect the winnings in case you win, at least check it until that day. Usually lottery prizes have expiration dates and if you don't claim your prize within a certain period, you might forfeit your winnings. It's unlikely that the casino would refund your money if you fail to claim your prize within the specified time frame thats why its important to stay informed about the terms and conditions of the lottery you're participating in to ensure you don't miss out on any potential winnings. It s basic Also be mindful and responsible, if you know that you have a bet, be updated in winning result because there's a lottery draw daily, so there's a lot of possible winners in a daily basis. Upon checking, some lottery gives at least 7 days to claim you're prizes and you're right, unlike in other casino there's a possibility to claim you prize even if you're unable to claim it on time. |

What he did I think is what he feels is the best for him to have done. I believe he must have seeked the opinion of well meaningful individuals before he took that step because I know on a normal he could have just let his friends know that he would be traveling or changing environment and possibly might not tell them about his wins but they would have found out wether he told them or not but what matters most is his safety with respect to the amount of his wins. Many people have that friend who only wants to benefit and not contribute and when it is time for merriment, you would always see them at the front singing and shouting your praises when they are not the reflection of what they do at the time of your reimbursement. These has made people to take such decisions of running away when ever they make it big avoiding their friends and most times relatives as well. So OP took such decisions based on his experience with his friends.
While some may consider this to be a bad attitude to have towards their friends we do not know what could have pushed this person to take that decision. As for all we know they could have been justified on their actions and what they did is what any other rational person would have done, as it is easy to take the side of their friends as this is the only information the OP received, but as we know there are always two versions of the same story, and maybe if the OP heard it they will understand why this happened. We need to hear both sides of the story! kidding aside, It's quite difficult to judge since we don't know the possible issues prior the winning break of that person. maybe there's a misunderstanding between them or maybe they are not that close and those friends assume that they are. I don't think a person will avoid you without having any valid reason and for me, if I won a big prize, there's a tendency that I will treat my friends since they are my company during the gambling session. |

The entertaining part will be replace of aggresion to win back the losing amount of money that they use, if the person continue to look for a way to chase the money they already lose it will affect their emotional balance, meaning that it will reflect with how they will think about gambling and even they are trying to keep it as secret when chasing loses come out in their minds they will use additional money that not allocated to gambling, then lose it as well, emotional stress and more on focusing into gambling that may lead into addictions.
And keeping their gambling activities a secret can cause more problems to arise because they can exceed their limits and no one knows how much money they have spent gambling. This is very risky because someone could deposit more money to gamble because they think they want to win more but they don't realize that it will only cost them more money. But if he can have good self-control, he can hide his gambling activities and will not get into any trouble, although that does not guarantee that he will not exceed his limits because he gambles in secret. We will never know when we will lose self-control or how long we can control ourselves because in gambling, we can get bigger temptations than before, so we must always be alert and stop gambling immediately if we have had enough of gambling. well. you have a point, maybe being a lowkey just to protect a gamblers from some evil eyes that may surrounds them, we all know that some people doesn't agree and support you once they know that you're into gambling and There's a traditional belief that once they know what you're doing, they can ruin it. In a gamblers vocabulary, Luck is very important that's why sometimes they tend to hide what they are doing even in their family members just to avoid losing in a game. Having a self control and limitations is a must and if gambler feels that they are turning being addicted to it, maybe that's the time that you can tell it to them. |

The first thing to realize newcomer to gambling is that the probability that he will lose more money than win is quite high. In games based on luck, he can change almost nothing over time, and in games in which the result depends on the experience of the player, he has a chance to become better than others, but it will have to spend a lot of time and money. The second thing you need to understand the beginner is that gambling is invented to tickle your nerves, and without high risks it is not possible.
Yeah, so just enjoy in the games you play when you are a beginner. Specially if you go out with your friends and going on a traditional based casinos. It's more fun there for sure specially if are a newbie and you will at awe with what you are going to see. So no need to chase big wins, maybe you might experience what we call beginners luck. But after that it could be string of bad luck and so you will definitely lose a lot of money and it will be a bad experience. And from then on you can decide whether to continue or just have fun when gambling. do not fall in what we called beginners luck, it will tease you just to play more because you've already experienced winning the prizes. At first It's fun but I'll tell you, casino will reclaimed the money that you've won, But once you passed the beginners luck and you're still continuously winning which is signs of a lucky streak, then that's a sign to play even more but always note that the luck can change quickly when it comes to gambling so it's crucial to have your self limitations and never get too carried away. |

Nakita ko rin yang post na yan, hehehe, technically, hindi naman sya mali, hindi na talagang mag $20.00 ang Bitcoin kasi tumaas ng tumaas na to at hindi na talaga maawat.
At tiyak dyan, yung mga ganyan tao eh talagang malaki ang pagisisi nila at hindi sila nagtiwala at hindi nag HODL dahil malamang kung sila ang early adopter mga self made milionaire na yang mga yan at generational wealth, at hindi na maghihirap pa. Kayal ang wala naman talagang nakaka alam ng mangyayari sa hinaharap kaya marami sa kanila ay talagang umalis sa bitcoin o nagiba ng investments at mangilan ngilan lang ang naiwan at ngayon ay malaki ang pasasalamat sa bitcoin.
Sang-ayon ako sa sinabi mo, lahat marahil sa kanila ay nagsisisi kapag naalala nila ang mga panahon na yan, sino ba naman ang mag-aakalang tataas ng todo ang price ni Bitcoin sa merkado na hindi nila inaasahan, baka iniisip pa ng iba na sana kung hindi nila binenta ay mayaman na sila ngayon. Maraming nag akala kabayan , kaya nga meron tayong mga early adopters kasi nagtiwala sila na tataas ng sobra ang presyo, kung hindi malamang eh nung nag 100$ palang eh nagbenta na sila pero dba hindi? instead meron pa din tayong mga first holder na until now hawak pa mga bitcoins nila, actually meron nga tayo dito sa local na nag hohold pa din from 10 years ago ng bitcoin nya. Kahit ako man siguro ganito din ang aking iisipin, baka nga yung iba paghindi nila kinaya yung stress o depression ay posibleng ikabaliw o ikasira pa ng kanilang mga ulo dahil hindi nila lubos maisip ngayon na sobrang mahal na ng bitcoin bawat isa sa merkado diba?
lahat tayong mga minsan naghinala at hindi nagtiwala , pero ang importante nagising tayo at nagsimulang maniwala kaya now mga Bitcoin holders na tayo at mga investors. Tama ka jan. pero hindi siguro ganun kadami ang nagtiwala, dahil karamihan ay sadyang kinalimutan o nakalimutan talaga na may Bitcoin sila. At nung nag-ingay ang Bitcoin tyaka lang hinagilap kung nandoon pa ba ang hawak nila na Bitcoin, yung iba ay pinalad na makita pa ang Bitcoin nila, yung iba naman ay hindi na. lalo kung wala tayong kaalaman masyado tungkol sa Bitcoin at makikita mo na mabilis bumaba o umangat ang price. Mauunahan ka talaga ng pagduduga, kaya mas maigi na natuto tayo. Marami kasi ang mabilis mag duda lalo na kung iilan palang naman ang mga nakapag papatunay na may value ang bitcoin plus nalink pa ang crypto sa mga masasamang balita like scam. Siguro may iilan na nakapag invest sa bitcoin pero sa katagalan hindi na ulit nila nakita or nabalikan yung ininvest nila, marahil nawala na sa isip nila dahil sa katagalan ng Panahon. Eye opener nadin siguro ang mga nangyari noon sa mga investors ngayon. |

Ako sa sarili ko hindi talaga ako naniniwala sa hula. Kaya nga hula dahil hindi sigurado o 100% accurate na tugma sa hula ang mangyayari. Tapos ang source pa ng tarot reading nila ay social media. Not sure kung nagbabayad sila sa tarot reading, pero kung oo, para sakin mukhang pineperahan lang sila.
Parang yung dating bigla nalang sumulpot sa bansa natin, nag predict ng mga sakuna sa social media, walang malinaw na explanation pero nung bandang huli wala namang nangyaring sakuna.
Kanya kanyang paniniwala lang din Talaga ang basehan dito, May mga tao talaga na naniniwala sa hula dala nadin ng tradisyon at kinalakihang lugar. Yun mga card readers sa social media ay tumatanggap ng bayad, nalaman ko lang yung rate dahil may nabasa ako before na tweets about sa reading rates, kumbaga wala ng libre ngayon kaya karamihan ay ginagawa itong hanap buhay kahit hindi na accurate ang mga sinasbai ng card reader, may iilan na nanloloko nalang din lalo na likas sa mga pinoy ang mabilis maniwala sa mga bagay bagay. |

The normal age for financial stability varies for individuals based on their goals, circumstances & financial habits.
Maybe by the age of 30 you should aim to have a stable income, a well-managed budget, a savings plan & a good credit score. It's important to start building financial stability as early as possible but remember that everyone's journey is different & it's never too late to start taking control of your finances.
Age of 30 seems possible but it depends to every individual like what you've said, everyone's journey is different. So if you're in the mid of 25-30 years old, I think It's fine if you have no enough savings and didn't hit the financial stability that you set in yourself as long as little by little, you already know how to manage your finances and expenses, also you have a time to enjoy your 20's. Nowadays it's difficult to have a spare money because of minimum salary offer while experiencing Inflation in economy but if there's an opportunity that may help you to aim the financial stability that you need, don't miss the chance, grab it and take a risk. |

Just don't go all in. Start with a small, manageable amount you can afford to lose. Think of it like dipping your toes in the water before diving in. Always do your homework on the platforms and go for the well-known and trustworthy ones. Avoid those shady schemes promising quick riches because they usually lead to disappointment. It's like finding the right party to hang out at and you want the one with a good crowd and positive vibes. There are a lot ot tips here in the forum. You will do well.  Best thing to do if you're playing in an online casino but if you're going on some casino, you can probably consider observation first to see how the games are played, how the players play and if you're lucky, how the winners play. I think that it's common sense to avoid those schemes, didn't the Led Zeppelin said that all that glitters isn't gold? If something is just too good of an offer, there's probably a catch that's a total disadvantage to you. I can't really add any new advice since most of the advice that a newcomer should know is probably said already, I guess I just have to say that you should just enjoy gambling and never make it too serious. also before new comers play in online casino, I suggest them to watch and to read other information about the casino site that they interested to play, they can even test out the game in a demo mode so that they will learn how it works. Do a background check to see if this is a legit and reputable online casino to prevent them from scammers since there are many unscrupulous operators out there who are looking to take advantage of newcomers... 100% agree on you, for all new comers, Just enjoy the gambling and always think that you play it for fun. |

Who on earth hasn't heard or known how gambling is negatively affecting some people's financial lives? Nevertheless, a lot of individuals choose to ignore all the warning indications they have seen about the dangers of gambling addiction in people's lives. Still on still, they will continue to permit such events to occur to them.
Hmm. It's true that gambling can affect someone financial status, but these individuals do really know it can crush them to zero if they got involved with it heavily, and when I say heavily it means addiction taking bet outside their financial capability. The fact remains that many would rather learn things the hard way. When they hear of other people's bad experiences with gambling, they are not moved or stopped unless they are painfully experiencing the worst with them. By then, they'll start moving on from their addiction to something more positive.
Maybe because they think that we do have our own lives, stories from other people or experience from others does not necessarily mean that they have going the same fate, but with gambling there's just two way, winning and losing, comes at worst the losing streak and become addicted to regain their losses. That's the kind of thing we see in today's people's lives. They prefer to experience it first before quitting any bad addiction that will cost their lives.
Definitely, some are not moved by other's stories unless it happened to them, not just with gambling specifically. Funny how they wanna experience some tragedy before realizing. i think it's the nature of humans. we wait for something tragic before we take action and sometimes its even too late before we do something to prevent it. the gamblers in the forum are very much aware of addiction but we are up to bet our coins thinking we could double the amount after. when we win, we still aren't satisfied and once again we're up to continue betting. just like the smoker who knows it can cause lung cancer but there they are enjoying the smoke. yeap sometimes the bad experiences are not that helpful, it even ignites curiosity. but it sometimes serves as a warning for the fearful. I admit that this is somehow true, We tend to wait for something bad might happen before we take an action and decide what's the best for ourself. Actually even if there's a lot of topic here about preventions and safety measures about gambling, others may read it but they won't apply it in their life or they are having a hard time to absorb all information's that they learned. For me, it's better not to experience or we don't have to wait for some things to happen, avoid and prevent it as fast as possible. |

What is the most money you have ever lost in one session? could be land base casino or crypto casino.
mine was $200,000 on Stake.com 2 weeks ago
from my experience I only once lost the biggest loss in 1 session around $350 on a fiat bet on a roulette game and if I remember at that time I was overcome by very high emotions chasing losses and in the end I still lost everything but thats okay it made it the best experience ever I've experienced. wait a minute you said you lost $200,000 in 1 session? If I may ask, what is your aim in betting such a large amount? to chase defeat or just for fun? IMO, if you are able to bet large amounts, perhaps losing will not reduce your wealth because I am sure you are a rich person. While each person can do whatever they want with their money, at the same time losing so much money in a single session seems like it is too much, after all with that amount of money you could do many other things to entertain yourself which will last longer than the few hours the average gambling session last, so maybe it is time for the OP to think about other hobbies they may like, since gambling so much regardless of their level of wealth seems to be unsustainable. It's all about how to manage proper risk in betting. Since it's a huge amount, it's seems to be hard to believe that you've lost it in one session and if the reason is for fun and leisure only, I bet you're super rich person because you can use high dollar amount for gambling. Better to take a break in gambling and create a management plan how to use money in gambling correctly. |
