1601  Economy / Economics / Re: What does being rich mean in your perspective? on: October 24, 2023, 11:02:33 AM
We often hear the word rich, and our immediate thought is money. However, I know for others, being rich goes beyond just financial wealth. For me, and I'm sure you won't deny it, it's about having a substantial amount of money or owning numerous assets and enough money to meet basic needs and desires. As a parent, having enough money to provide for my children's necessities like food, clothing, and shelter, as well as the ability to send them to good schools, is crucial.

I believe that financial security, the ability to afford a comfortable lifestyle, and the freedom to live life to the fullest are essential aspects that bring joy and fulfillment.

Thumbs up for this one. The first thing that comes to our mind when we hear the word "rich" is all about having lots of money and I agree with that, for me, it should be being financially secure, meaning you have an investment, some business, asset and also if you're not living paycheck to paycheck. having a large income doesn't mean you're rich, especially if you're living paycheck-to-paycheck. You may consider yourself a rich person when you can afford to have a lifestyle that you want without needing a job when you are your own boss and not beholden to an employer, and when you're free to do what you want. One thing that I also consider being rich is having good health, a comfortable life, and stable mental health.

I don't think the two of them will be able to directly matching and collaborate to help minimize the roots of the problems currently being faced, food shortages and climate change, which are very global challenges and problems at the moment and in my opinion these problems are very complex and have a very big impact. Many aspects even though it is considered an idea. which is innovative.

It is necessary to immediately carry out efforts that are deemed capable of minimizing this, for example by looking for plant varieties that are more resistant to changing climatic conditions and providing them to farmers. Well, in this case the government has a strong role in advocating for policies that encourage sustainable agriculture so that implementation can run well and there will be no more busy work if at any time the intensity increases.
It cannot be denied that the government plays a very big role in overcoming problems like this. I think this is a little difficult because the main problem is that it can no longer be as effective as before because the influence of the situation is not a decline in farmer performance so that farmers do not have a solution so the government is encouraged to find a solution and invite farmers. to work together to increase the productivity of food shortages like today.
You're right, the world today is experiencing a major shortage or food crisis and the government has a big impact on overcoming this economic problem. The government should have an agricultural program for our farmers, helping them by giving funds and stocks that may be used in farming can prevent food shortages. Also, farm worker's salary rate should increase given that they are the one who provides us a good quality food. Good collaboration between the government and Farmers will possibly overcome this economic issue that we are facing.
1603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: October 24, 2023, 10:14:07 AM
Really hard indeed and there's no way that it could really be that so easy on the time that you would really be on such situation on which that "CONTROL" that we are all saying.There's no way that you could really be able to tell that it would really be easy when you are there.  Getting too far with gambling is really that likely because majority of us would really be that too impulsive when it comes to money and winning something on which this would really be that always an interesting thing that we would really be continuing on doing and doesnt matter if we do get addicted to it then this is where
people do usually ending up. Getting to far would be most likely the case and if you dont have that control then you are really that likely to end up like that.

If you dont like to end up on a mess then you would really be just simply that stopping if you do see that your finances is already that greatly been that affected.
Dont wait for the time to things to mess up because it would really be that a huge pain in the ass in that case.
I know it's easy to say that gambler needs to be responsible and know how to control their spending but I agree with you that it's hard to do if we were in their position, But it's really up to them, Gamblers are the only one who can help their selves even if there's a lot of advices and reminders that they've received, if Gamblers didn't know how to control and manage their selves, I bet they will ended up having a gambling addiction, Worst, it can ruin their entire life.
1604  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: October 24, 2023, 09:53:52 AM
In fact, all the time one of the lottery participants repeats some of the same numbers and their sequences, for example, the date of one’s birth, this can be regarded as superstition.  But many people treat such superstition as a magic number that once was something memorable and significant for them.  And they constantly write the same numbers, believing that the probability of winning again from such a lucky number is higher.  But it is clear that this is not at all the case.  

But still, most lottery players, it seems to me, still choose numbers quite randomly.  By the way, it’s interesting how these random numbers come to a person’s head, why are they exactly like that?

When it comes to repeating numbers, I have a real-life experience with that, one of my relatives plays the lottery on a daily basis. Just like what others do, she bet on the same number for almost 20 years I guess? those numbers came from her dream and believes that those are her lucky numbers but she never wins a single penny. I think, winning in the lottery is just pure luck because it doesn't require any gambling experience as long as you have money to buy tickets. Some people pick random numbers based on their birthdays, important dates of events, and based on their instincts.
1605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fake casino streamers! Why such streamers are very popular? on: October 24, 2023, 09:32:52 AM
There are two types of streamers currently in the streaming platforms. One who invests funds from himself and gambles to entertain people. Another one is who get sponsored by the casinos to play in those and hence they gamble. Now there is no need to call anyone fake according to me. They have done enough hardwork also to reach this position. So yes it’s according to them whether they will promote a site or how they will stream. If you don’t like them, then just ignore and move on.

As far as I know, some streamers have literally no idea of what they'd advertise or they don't really play it in real life just like what others feature in their posts and streams. Some casino hires many influencers nowadays, that's one of their marketing and advertising strategy to gain players, investors, and clients. Influencers and Streamers received sponsors and business proposals not just for gambling but also to introduce new online games in the market. Yes, we can't call them fake, they're just doing their job.
1606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you leave gambling if your future wife/husband tells you to do this ? on: October 23, 2023, 11:17:49 AM
Will you leave gambling if your future wife/husband tells you to do this ?

In the first place, why did they ask it to do so?

Might they see us showing irresponsible, crappy attitudes or unusual behavior? In that case, they are just right to ask that and we have no right to even complain since they are just concerned and it will be for our own benefit. Actually, no need for them to ask that but just stop on our own.

It's all about respect and if only we are not showing a bad attitude, I don't think they will ask that question in the first place.

Once your partner is asking you to stop and leave the gambling, it shows that there's something wrong in your behavior and attitude or it depends on your partner's perspective when it comes to gambling. If you're not addicted to gambling, I think you can easily quit without any hesitation and you don't have to ask this because you can stop it even if your partner is not asking and complaining. the effect of gambling on a marriage can be devastating, it can destroy your partner's trust and can also ruin your finances, and put your family in harm's way.
1607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cross addictions is Just as Bad. on: October 23, 2023, 10:59:30 AM
I also believe that he is spending way more on gambling than the subscription of $20 on his new shinny console, he is enjoying himself so let him, and if you think that gaming will destroy him just like gambling then you don't know the difference, the urge to play video games is different from the urge to make a fortune with gambling, one is less addictive than the other.
However, he will still become addicted to video games and can spend the whole day without doing other activities. But at least he had saved much money instead of using it for gambling. And maybe later, he can find a way to make money from playing video games.

If he could make money, that would be a great way. He could even benefit from playing video games but he has to find a way. That's like what I saw in some young people playing video games on smartphones.

They enthusiastically played the video game and answered that it could make money when I asked about it. But I don't know how because I didn't ask further.
I think changing his addiction to video games is much better and safer because it helps to lessen the expenses as well as the possibility of losing a huge amount of money. It is also much safer than using the 100% addiction withdrawal method which causes many psychological side effects to the person. Cross-addiction can occur because addictive behaviors often stem from underlying psychological and emotional issues that are not fully resolved, leaving individuals vulnerable to developing new addictive patterns to fill the void left by the initial addiction.
1608  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Educate yourself to be a frugal gambler on: October 23, 2023, 10:33:51 AM
Gambling is not the way to become financially independent. It is neither a side hustle or an alternate source of income. Contrary to what you may have watched on the internet about people who live off of gambling, it is a very dangerous and risky thing to do. We already have a thousand and one thread on this forum that highlights this same topic raised by the OP and we do not need more of this because as the good old books says, let him that have an ear hear.
I think gambling is really okay to consider as a side hustle while having fun as long as you know your limitations in spending your money and don't let your emotion affects you. do not let yourself be in a desperate situation chasing the losses. I already saw a thread somehow related to this and there's a topic on how to become a responsible gambler, that's a must-read. Also if you're familiar with the author Jean Scott, She released her book Titled "How to Become a Frugal Gambler" which States the comprehensive details and how to lose less and play longer.
1609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: October 23, 2023, 10:12:34 AM


One more point to add: Clear mindset
Having a clear and fresh mind is really important when gambling. It helps us to make better choices and understand the risk. If you are tired or stressed in that moment, your mind may go blank, and you may make quick decision that you regret later. Therefore, it is important to relax and play with fresh mind. A clear head will help you make better decisions and lead to better results.
once i was playing dice in lazy way in stressed condition and made a number mistake and lost m bankroll in a second
That's right, by having a clear mindset, someone who will carry out an activity will seem relaxed, not reckless and the results will not be disappointing, including in gambling, someone who will carry out gambling with a clear mindset, then that person will not be careless in actions or strategies that will be used. He gambles with a calm attitude, not excessively, and is aware that victory or defeat is right before his eyes.
If your mind is confused, tired, then you should stop first, rest your mind by going on holiday with friends or family to return your mind to normal or fine. And this must be done as much as possible, so that the mind is not too stressed if you want to return to gambling again.
One thing that I always advise everyone, when it comes to gambling, is you should also know how to manage your emotional state because gambling can affect our mental health, it can cause low self-esteem, stress, and depression. if you use it compulsively or feel out of control, it can lead to addiction. While most people who gamble do it mainly for fun, others can’t help but end up emotionally invested in the game. So, it is necessary to control your emotions.
1610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cockfighting? on: October 23, 2023, 07:18:37 AM
The cock fighting game may be from the old time when things are not that civilized. Although I have seen this kind of fight most time just for fun but the purpose was not for gambling. Gambling can be very addictive if we don't have control of it ourselves. This is one of the reasons why we are still seeing that kind of games because some persons see it as a good means of betting especially when they have big and strong cocks in there farm. Although this kind of game can be a ban in some locality due to strict laws against animal misuse.
With some bets, it's no longer for fun and there's blood and money that's on the line. That's how it's made for the gamblers and this is also part of history.
So, if there are cockfighters that do it for fun it is like they're testing their cocks before releasing that in the cockpit arena and see if they'll be the same during those non serious fights without the blade or sharp thing attached to them.

of course, this won't be only for fun especially those gamblers who really dedicate their resources for cockfighters. as any other gambling games, this can also involved high amount of money depending on where it is being handled at and who are the stakeholders involved. in some countries, high profile politicians are even involved with this game. so the money involved is indeed staggering.

Yeah high profile government officials are also involve together with well-known business owners are involved with cockfighting that being handled by big arenas, they are not just doing it for entertainment but they are raising those rosters to aim for big wins, the amount of money that in stake can go up to millions depending from who are the people behind that cockfighting deals.

Here in our country, cockfighting is very popular , it was owned and operates by a most influencing man in gambling. The investors and bettors are came from high class of family and some government officials are involve. the primary purposes of cockfighting is for entertainment and leisure, It can be addictive because of the culture and festivity, to the point that bettors are willing to risk something they value in hope of getting something of even greater value.

Guys another hacking incident na naman ang napanuod ko sa balita. Pati ang website ng kamara or yung website ng house of representatives ay na hack na rin. Mukhang iniisa-isa na i-hack ang mga government facilities ng bansa natin na nagpapakita laman kung gaano ka-bulok yung Cybersecurity when it comes to government.

Check this link tiktok link from DZBB
Fake hacking ito. I've seen a video na may naka-access pa din sa website ng HOR after that hacking news although through a different route. Pagkatapos ma-debunk yung 'hack', sinabi ng HOR na hindi naman talaga hack kundi prank lang daw Grin

Tingin ko gawa ng Congress yan siguro dahil may gustong itago. Na-expose kasi yung katotohanan na parang may confidential funds din pala bawat Kongresista at Senador. Meron silang tinataawg na Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses (MOOE) kung saan pwede nila gastusin yung pondo ng bayan at sabihin nilang para sa MOOE nila ito. Papaano ito naging confidential? Hindi na kasi nila kailangan magbigay pa ng resibo bilang patunay. Magbibigay lang sila ng certification na nagastos nila sa ganito o sa ganyan. Ibig sabihin, hindi ma-verify ng COA kung doon nga talaga napunta ang pera.

Inside job ba yung tinutukoy mo?  kung sa bagay posibleng ganun nga din yung ginawa, palalabasin na ganun tapos yung pondo pwedeng paghati-hatian nila or solohin ng isang congressman. Pero palagay ko lang naman ito, kaya lang sa mga taong walang ibang gagawin na maganda ay posible talagang gawin ito ng mga ilang opisyales n gobyerno.

Kelan pa kaya magkakaroon ng opisyales na talagang merong tunay na pagmamalasakit sa ganitong klaseng mga isyu sa gobyerno?
Sana naman maayos ng husto ang ating cryber crime system natin. Huwag yung sa ganitong pagpapakita ng kapalpakan sa totoo lang.

may posibilidad na magkaroon ng internal fraud, actually normal at gawain na talaga iyon ng iilan sa mga governement officials. nakakaya ng sikmura nila yung mga ginagawa nila kasi alam nilang malaki yung makukuha nilang pera galing sa pondo ng bayan. Mayroon namang mga tapat ay may malasakit sa bansa pero hindi nabibigyan ng pagkakataon na makaupo. sabagay, pati nga boto ng mga kandidato dinadaya na ng may mga kapangyarihan at pera e. Nkakapagtaka kasi ang laki ng budget para mas mapaayos yung cyber security system ng bansa pero parang walang progress.

It is very danger  Grin I mean who the hell is combining company and personal funds in the same account.
I has couple of bank account with different purposes there is for saving there are for daily transaction and many more.

The danger would be real if you can't track all the debit or credit for personal use or company use. The accountant should pay double for this hahahah

Combining your company and personal funds in the same account is one of the most common problems of a start up entrepreneurs, this is what we called commingling funds. It can be a serious problem and it leads you to a personal liability for your business debts if this can't prevent as early as now. It's best to maintain a separate bank accounts for your personal and business transactions as well as to keep you books diligently, that's why it is essential to have your company accountant/bookkeeper.
1613  Economy / Economics / Re: Is there a formula for Bitcoin starters? on: October 23, 2023, 04:38:54 AM
I say the easiest way to invest in bitcoin is to actually allocate money to investing, instead of just investing what would be left of your monthly pay if you're employed. The thing is that most of us here are living paycheck to paycheck, and by the end of the month, we wouldn't have anything left for ourselves no matter what we do. Allocating money for investing and saving money beforehand ensures that whatever happens your investments is taken care of since you already kept funds for it prepared.

If you can't invest really, because you're in abject poverty and every dime counts, I say you find a better job first, and then from there work towards allocating money for investing. If there's a will, there's a way as the old adage goes.
There's no actual formula for newbies in investing in bitcoin, perhaps investors are aware on what's the basic steps in investing. Some minimum wage earner says it's quite difficult to save a money for investments but for me, it's better to have one or try to find a high paying jobs so you could save an extra money. For the most part, all you need to do is invest your money or digital assets in a particular crypto investment strategy or platform and watch it generate profit but please note that the profit is not fixed and unpredictable.
1614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is horse racing so unpopular here and a bit of extra feedback on: October 23, 2023, 04:09:33 AM
Even me now, I can't remember when last have witnessed horse riding or see people gambling on horse riding because it's no more as popular as it was then, things have been modernized and advanced and there's more interest on other sport games than horse riding, we also see that most of the gambling platforms don't have this kind of game for gamblers to bet bacause of it low rate of gamblers participation in it.

In some of the countries the horse racing was still legal one,because some of the gambling site had totally ban the horse race because of the animal was affected by the horse race.Some horse rider was injecting the drugs to the horse for the better performance.After the origin of the many online gambling sites,the horse racing interest on the gambler was oxidised over a period of time.Some people started the case for the usage f the animal in the gambling and also the gambler affecting huge by the financial loss by the game.
I have not really come across any gambling site that have listed horse racing before not to talk of those that have ban the games on they casinos,  this is because horse race is one of the most old popular games,  but the only problem with this game is that,  the physical event requires a lot of preparation and also need many manpower to guides and officiate the games at some point and as far as I know,  it much more of a local event than it is at an international scales may be fhat be the reason why those horse or other animal games are mostly unpopular in online casino.
horse racing is still somehow popular and legal in other countries. In our country, it indicates that approximately 65% of wagers of the community are related to racing particularly horse racing as this is the most popular. the statistics demonstrate the significant role that horse racing betting plays in our country's gambling culture making it an essential component of the industry. Some gamblers in our country engage in betting as a means to earn money, while others do it for leisure.

For those still confused about the payrate, minimum of 15 posts to be eligible for weekly payment, total of 60 posts are eligible for payment, inside that 60 posts you can get up to 15 post bonus for post only in gambling boards. This means if you made a total of 60 posts, you get 45 regular payment and 15 bonus payment if you made those post in the gambling sector but if you didn't you get straight 60 regular payment.
Do you mean the bonus will not add up to the regular rate per post? Does it mean it's better to complete the maximum weekly post without posting in the gambling board/section?

Since this is a gambling campaign, I thought posting in the gambling section is good for better promotion.

Sorry about that, this statement has been updated, and bonus payment are on the way. It should be 15 regular payment + bonus payment.
I understand, thank you for the clarification

Do not listen to people saying you will lose money, there is no way you can lose money investing in Bitcoin
Op can lose their coins if they do not know what they are doing, i don't think op understands much about BTC and it is worth mentioning to newbies that BTC is not a risk-free investment. Op has to understand what they are doing, if not they can easily lose their coins to scammers. BTC doesn't also give profit immediately, so if op isn't patient, they can sell their coins at a loss and lose a part of their money.

I think Op understands what he is saying and what he is planning about Bitcoin. In fact, the parent is even very lucky because, at his young age, he can immediately see a good investment opportunity in Bitcoin.

And I also think he knows what he's doing right now, as he's studying Bitcoin, so I don't see anything wrong with what he's doing, to be honest.
Yes, OP already has the vision of Bitcoin as his investment even at a young age. It only means that he already understands it. Due to his curiosity, he did some research about it and learned the basic knowledge. But the people around him do not want OP to get involved in Bitcoin for the reason that it is too early for him. Even though, he has a plan to invest regularly. It's a good start for someone who just wants to start knowing bitcoin. Don't let other people stop you or dictate you on when to start your investment.

Ako din gagamitin ko pa rin sila kahit na sinubukan ko yung hold USDC feature nila. Affordable amount lang naman dineposit ko doon at mukhang XRP lang naman affected dito. Antayin lang natin official statement nila o baka hindi na sila mag release niyan para makalimutan lang.

Mahirap din naman kasi gumamit ng iba lalo na nakasanayan na natin si coins.ph at tsaka napakaraming option ang offer nila lalo na sa pag cash out. Kaya sa ganung bagay ko nalang gagamitin si coins at hindi na ako mag iiwan ng malaking halaga since dumagdag naman itong kasalukuyang issue sa red flags nila. Pero tingin ko malalampasan din naman ito ni coins.ph since hindi naman sila maliit na platform pero yun ngalang ingat parin naman talaga tayo dahil di natin alam kung kailan sila mag down knowing malaking halaga din ang nawala sa kanila at ewan lang kung mababawi paba talaga nila yun.
Oo, huwag nalang mag iwan ng malaking halaga kung gagamitin siya. Base nalang din sa mga sagot nila, parang hindi talaga part ng plano nila na i-announce yung nangyari at nireport ng The Block.

Sinubukan ko lang ng one week yung USDC feature nila pero pinull out ko rin dahil mahirap talaga mag tago ng malaking halaga kay coins.ph since may issue talaga sila dati na pag close ng account na walang matinong explanation.
Mukhang malaking halaga ng USDC nga talaga yung nilagay mo kaya mahirap ipagkatiwala sa kanila. Mapapaisip ka sa weekly na kita mo o di kaya safety ng funds mo lalo na nangyari itong issue na ito.

Unless magagaya nila ang binance na naibalik yung nawalang pera baka hindi ganun kadami ang mabawas sa mga users nila, need kasi dito sa issue ng trust eh talagang mailabas mo yung pera nung mga nadamay, or kung ayaw mo mag admit na may nangyari ngang hack eh need ma-make sure na talagang my pondo at hindi mahihirapan mailabas yung perang naideposito ng mga users sa platform nila.

Sa ngayon, sila lang ang maaaring mag confirm nung insidente at kung anong action plan nila patungkol dito.
Hindi na nila siguro ibabalik yung nawala at automatic cover naman na nila siguro itong losses na ito. Wala pa naman akong nakitang user na nagrereklamo na nawala yung funds nila at isa sila sa nadamay sa nangyaring ito.
Ang nababasa ko lang is may problem sa withdrawal ng coins sa ngayon, pero wala yung mga nagrereklamo na nawalan sila ng funda sa mga wallet nila. Baka sa pondo mismo ng coinsph ang nakuha ng mga hacker at hindi sa account ng mga user. Wala pa malinaw na insidente dahil wala din nilalabas na announcement si coinsph sa ngayon. Pero kung sakali siguro na ang nawala ay ang laman ng mga wallet ng user nila, for sure ibabalik nila yun at count un sa losses nila.

Stories like always cracks me up.
Well crying is better than those who committed suicide. After crying she's going to get a plate of ice cream after which she'll forget about her loss.
Real gamblers don't cry. We what that it is what it is. Anyone who doesn't gamble responsibly will face the consequences.
You're right, crying is better than committing suicide.

And with her reaction, she cried because she lost her money that she's not prepared for. It's okay to cry for someone who assumed that she's gonna make money quickly with sports betting because everybody does.

But on her case, she's not just prepared for it because of what she thought. Gambling isn't for her and she shouldn't gamble anymore because there can be a worst case scenario that she might do for herself when losses comes to her.
Better to know that crying will not do anything. Instead of crying, moving on should be done. By doing so, accepting the fact that the money is gone will be easy to accept and never get into gambling activity again if she's not prepared to lose her money. I'm not saying that crying is not okay, but the moment that the lady starts to gamble, it comes with the risk of losing her money. Crying only shows that she's not prepared and now after losing, that's the only thing she can do.
1620  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: October 22, 2023, 04:47:10 PM
I'm tempted to ask what our response will be when we are gambling and our kinds come to ask what we are doing.  Do we lie to them or tell them the truth. At a certain age children become so inquisitive that they ask questions virtually in everything they see us do.
It is normal to a kid asking what are their parents doing in front of their devices, it's their curiosity that why parents should know their responsibilities. Parents should check their children's social accounts as well because gambling products and opportunities is more accessible now than before, children are getting the ideas from the advertising or by hearing some words from the adults so one way to avoid normalizing gambling is to set the example to your children by not gambling yourself or at least do not gambling in front of them. Be aware that kids are being exposed to gambling through advertisement so it's better to start a conversation with them and discuss the risk associated with gambling.

It’s very hard to check every activity they are doing now that smartphones is very common and it’s easy to browse this kind content by just browsing on the news feed. I think it’s better to educate them earlier on what to avoid so that you can implant a warning message on their mind before their curiosity makes them do their own research towards gambling.

It’s way harder to restrict children nowadays compared before because technology makes everything very handy even accessing website that was supposed for adult by just clicking the yes button when ask if you are a legal age for a mature content website.
Yes, as I said, monitoring the usage of and their activities with their smartphone is a must. Educating them is not enough because their curiosity will surely get to them. Kids must be monitored and supervised every time to prevent them from accessing any gambling activities. This way, chances for them to gamble at an early age will be lower. They will be able to enjoy being a kid for a longer time than to be exposed to this kind of activity.
