1921  Economy / Gambling / Re: Looking for paying online casinos for refer on: March 08, 2023, 04:30:15 AM
The so called influencers has the mandate to pull a traffic for the casino and once they have done that, it's left on the casinos to develop various means in retaining those gamblers to remain and have interest in their site, that is why a gambling casino has many responsibilities to take in ensuring they build up a good and loyalty gamblers to their casinos, that's why some attract them with promotional offers like bonus and seasonal promos, because they realize that these are part if what gives gamblers sight attraction to a casino.
Influencers and publishers can be hired for a fee according to the number of referrals they get from referral promotions, they will be very lucky especially getting referrals from big gamblers because they will get a bonus every time they deposit money to the casino. The casino will continue to improve promotional services for referrals and other promotions to attract many new gamblers and many new casinos pay high referral bonuses, but make sure you promote referrals from trusted casinos.
if there is enough promotion, casinos would be having great profits from gambler that are coming to there platform everytime that is mostly based on traffic that is generated from gamblers coming to the casino. I would prefer betting in a casino where there is referrals bonus for people that are interested I'm referring other gamblers.

But still there are casinos prefer to focus more on promotions like bonuses for new customers and for the existing one they are just having rafles or any cashback but still it is good than nothing but i really noticed most is that they prefer to attract new gamblers. Referrals are really big factor but most of the casino that I've known they really have referral program but it varies the bonus or money you could get per platform and again we will be using this to play again in their platform
1922  Economy / Economics / Re: Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing. on: March 08, 2023, 03:38:34 AM
Do you think social media is now becoming more a place for business than socializing, Could it be as a result of digitalization and things moving online or more people now starting business online because of need to somehow generate income or another source of income for self to survive the economic situations which is becoming tougher?
You are right and it has become inevitable too. More people are online now so why not take advantage of that by bringing the market/business online on every social media platform. We can see these days how easy it is for people to advertise their businesses on every social media space even when the original information isn't about that business cos it has become much quicker for people to see your business that way and why not make money instead of just socializing on there.

Even governments are using social networks to convey information to their people, showing that people are living on social networks more in real life. Therefore, social networks used for business are inevitable. There is too much convenience if you do business on social networks, such as shopping you can choose directly through the images posted instead of running each store to choose a satisfactory product. Save time and costs for both sellers and buyers.

Even ourselves we are just easily got contactable in social media than calling our contact number as in social media we are always checking this than our messages. The audience also in social is pretty huge like you dont need to go to places just to announce those things like the government they just have a page and  announced there so no need to exert a lot of effort and man power. This also applies to business because of a lot of audience can reach your advertisement then it is a good platform but still the purpose of social media still the same
1923  Economy / Economics / Re: The cost of living is trying to kill the living on: March 08, 2023, 02:27:01 AM
No matter how we blame our government, they still can't move a single thing on this. Even mandating an increase in the minimum wage of employees takes time; how much more lowering the value of those things? Only you can help yourself, so it is better to move and find another source of income so that you can earn more and be able to buy our needs. As of the moment, those who are really having difficulties right now would be more struggling, so if ever we have a chance, let's help them.
1924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling earn someone a living on: March 07, 2023, 05:21:37 PM
No matter what anyone say, gambling can never be a source of livelihood for anyone. Anyone who gambles must already have an alternative source of income where he get the money he or she uses to wager on any game.
The only sets of persons who may decide to pick up gambling to "earn a living" are Trust fund babies who are living off the wealth of their parents. Because this is absolutely unsustainable. Anyone who claims they are doing it must be lying.

There couple people that their source of income at first was gambling but it was just lucky and put up businesses as they know that gambling is not sustainable . For sure you've seen any documentary about professional gamblers earning huge and winning huge. They are really earning from gambling but again for sure it is not sustainable that is why they invested into businesses to continue their wealth and gamble. Gambling is just bonus in our life if we win but we still need to have stable income like work so that we have money to use to bet and if got lucky and won then it is bonus money to us.
1925  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: who would you trust? on: March 07, 2023, 04:23:56 PM
Since strategy are always changing in trading, what is the relevance of experience? Who would you trust the most for trading tips,
An old trader who has had better days and mostly still relevant because they have a strong reputation for the fact that he has been trading for a while, or would you trust a new trader who is hot in the market and fresh with new strategies?

it's important to consider multiple sources of information and do thorough research before making a decision. While an old trader with a strong reputation can bring valuable experience and insight, a new trader with fresh strategies and a successful track record can also bring new perspectives and potential profitable opportunities. The most important factor is to trust your own analysis and judgement, and not solely rely on someone else's advice.

A veteran with proven and reliable strategy and a newbie with no experience but new tools that are promising for strategy It is really best if you have a lot of sources of information; the more the better, as you can cast, make, and polish your trading strategy, which is really good to earn more profit. I agree that it is still up to your own decision which to follow, but combining them if both are relevant is the best as you can benefit from it.
1926  Economy / Economics / Re: Is taking a loan/debt addicted ? on: March 07, 2023, 02:42:29 PM
You can say that, this is because nowadays it is very easy to get a loan, if 10 years ago we had to be embarrassed because we wanted to borrow money from friends or family, but now there are hundreds of online loan applications that have become a trap for us, I suggest avoiding online loans because the interest is very high.

and most it is almost impossible to get approved your loan, so before you could only borrow money from those people that were lending it, but with a high interest rate, and you had no choice because you were in need of money, but now there are applications on your phone that you just need to install, and then money will be sent to you; it is really easy and tempting, which is why others right now can easily take a loan as it is easy to apply, though it is not an addiction, but they just got easily persuaded on getting a loan and just buying useless things.
1927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I managed to convince my senior dad to invest in BTC on: March 07, 2023, 01:19:12 PM
I don't want to convince anybody to invest in bitcoin; I just told them about it and let them decide if they want it or not. I think your father discovered it on his own; that is why he approached you to try it; probably he found an article or saw it in social media about it. Also, just a word regarding convincing people: it is risky because some people will blame you when the price drops or they lose their investment. The minds of people are built differently, so if you don't want to get mocked, don't convince them.
1928  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel selling your BTC against your plans? on: March 07, 2023, 12:02:29 PM
Most of us will say we are disappointed or hurt because we sell it, but it depends on the perspective of the person. For me, I invest in bitcoin so that, in rainy days or emergencies, I can use it. That is really the main purpose of holding bitcoin. Though if I were in your situation, it would be best if you borrowed money from relatives or someone else and returned it, as you were still expecting the money, rather than selling bitcoin. It happened to me a lot of times. I would just borrow, but when it came to needing huge amounts, that was the time I sold, no matter what the price was.
1929  Economy / Economics / Re: Money is for the important things on: March 07, 2023, 11:02:45 AM
Money of course is a very important thing, almost difficult to find a place that does not need money, especially a lot of life needs that must always be paid routinely such as electricity, clean water, gas, etc., of course, makes everyone think of making money even in my country many officials who is corrupt for fear of poor.

Anywhere in the world are using money or some sort of payment system unless you are in a remote area or untouched tribe but most of now needs money to continue what they are doing though you can still lived without it but you'll struggle a lot. Ive seen a lot of videos on social media not sure if it is true but most of them lived in forest area like tarzan and they are finding food and not relying on the money but for us that we got used to it then it is impossible to us to survive.
1930  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading addiction, are you coping? on: March 07, 2023, 10:01:33 AM
Any venture that has the word "addiction" attached to it, is never a good one. If you check carefully, you will see that the individual's physical and mental health, social and personal life, and relationships are affected, either directly or indirectly. Anyone who is addicted to trading despite having losses is just chasing losses. There is no professional trader that I know who has been very successful with trading who wouldn't advise beginners on the need to maintain a balance.
Everything that is done abused always create a negative motivation that will lead into an addiction. And with addiction, everything will be affected especially if you keep ignoring it and instead, continue to chase more profits so you can benefit them more. However, with trading addiction, it can be more manageable because you can actually stop trading if you have no funds to start it with. Therefore, being addicted into trading is probably more on seasonal that you can anytime stop your addiction if the market too is not allowing you to be profitable.
Addiction is more likely to lead to negative things, especially when it involves finances. Back to ourselves, if we don't want to have addiction in trading we can manage time and finances one of them. Maybe we usually trade 7 days a week, that can be reduced to 5 days for example. Or we usually trade 8 hours a day, we can reduce it to 4 hours. Set profit targets and set loss targets, it will help us not to have addiction in trading.

Also having other things to do, like sports, because it is useless if you cut down your trading time but still sit there all day thinking about trading, then it is still not worth it. By having a hobby like sports, which you will allocate time on that day to play, you will forget trading and later on, your playing time in trading will become shorter, but again, this is easy to say but difficult to do, and trading and gambling addiction are pretty different as trading is some sort of work for profit purpose and gambling is for fun so it is more easy to overcome trading addiction than gambling
1931  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: In the best interest of investors, Bounties shouldn't be paid in Tokens on: March 07, 2023, 05:03:11 AM
It was a great idea if the goal of the owner is to keep his token success because mostly the dump happens when the bounty hunters received their token and all of them start selling and they don't care of what will happen to the project. Though the problem really is the cost paying on it like others dont have really enough budget to pay those bounty hunters that is why they are going to pay then via their own token. I seen couple of bounties before that pays in USDT but still bounties is really paid by their own tokens
1932  Economy / Economics / Re: Methods to cut food costs on: March 07, 2023, 03:56:04 AM
If the government can help the farmers by reducing the price of fertilizers and other equipments that are needed for agricultural produce then things is going to get better with time. We are going to see great impact in food production that what we have been seeing all these years making the food supply to be shortage because of many factors and the war going on.

They cant control it right now its because all prices are high even the fuel it is still high right now even the government try to hold it but again those supplier and other merchants would this agree though if they can help those farmers like providing fertilizer and having a big budget for agriculture sector it is possible that it will drop the price but again its because of war it is not yet possible so we have no choice to continue buying it and if we have a chance then find another source of income
1933  Economy / Economics / Re: Are people really having the wrong concept of savings? on: March 07, 2023, 02:08:04 AM
Saving is for good and people do saving to have a good future, savings for health,education, billings, etc., it is good but sometimes people have a wrong way of savings, for me it is better to invest or buy things that can give you profit in the near future buying btc or land that we can sell in a high price in the near future is also good,instead of saving the money we do invest to make more money in the future.

It is called they invest but at the same time they save money but it is more effective as they earn profit over time but this requires a lot of money its either you save first to achieve that money and buy those land or invest it to something or you will take out a loan though risky. Saving is really for you to use in the future but others wont be touching it even if they are struggling which is wrong and not efficient and serve no purpose unless it is more important the reason why you are saving it
1934  Economy / Economics / Re: Planning avoids unnecessary expenses on: March 06, 2023, 04:55:41 PM
maybe if can, all people will do that, but sometime we have unexpected expenses that should we pay.
or another goods or something you want sunddenly come to your mind.
we can blame that because we are human, we want something and must to buy that, but if we can control that we can control all.

We can prevent this if we have savings or extra funds like an emergency fund or savings for unexpected expenses, but again, this is only applicable for those who have extra money, like if they are spending a lot of money to take out food, then they can save more if they control it. But if our salaries are just enough, then we can mostly end up having savings for emergencies. We can prevent being an impulsive buyer if we are just thinking about it, but there are things like when you need to pay this or give this to your relatives as they need it, so it is still unexpected, which means we are not prepared and you can't prevent it, so having extra money or that kind of savings can save you.
1935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would You Build your Own Casino(online/offline) If You Know You Can? on: March 06, 2023, 01:34:31 PM
That was a big budget. You can build multiple casinos or focus on one, but it should be a hybrid style online and offline casino so that it can be accessed anywhere, and you should also focus on marketing to ensure that your casino becomes well known. But when building your offline casino, you should consider where to put it, like where the biggest percentage of people gamble in your country, and try to build one there and also in other countries so that your target audience is huge and the possibility of getting a profit is good. If ever I have a chance, I will build one, but I won't go all in with one business; I would invest in or build another one too.
1936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling earn someone a living on: March 06, 2023, 11:30:23 AM
When you say gambling, most of the older people that you've talked to will tell you that it is illegal and dangerous, as you are right, a lot of rich people like drug kingpins are there playing, so you should avoid it, and over time, because of the advertisements and social media, the reputation is getting better and they are showing off this as it can change the lives of others from poor to rich, but I would say it is about luck, so it is not a sure-win scenario that you can live with, so it is not stable that you will earn this money the following month, but there are really wealthy gamblers that make a living from it.
1937  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are there age limits to Bitcoin investment? on: March 06, 2023, 09:44:14 AM
There are generally no age restrictions for investing in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, but minors may require parental consent. However, it is not advisable to introduce children or elderly individuals to cryptocurrencies without proper education and caution. These investments can be volatile, and it's important to seek advice from financial professionals and conduct thorough research before investing.

I think there should be an age limit when investing in bitcoin. For children who are too young, raised by their parents, there is no need to rush to learn about bitcoin, at that age should only learn age-appropriate things, not too much pressure. Give them a good childhood instead of forcing them. As for those who are too old, the age that needs to rest and enjoy life is also not suitable to invest in bitcoin. Bitcoin is a very volatile asset and investing in it is stressful, so it is important to have the right age and audience to avoid unfortunate crashes.

There are children (not infants or those who still cannot understand) that are advanced, like they are mature enough to learn this. Mostly, I found those children curious about things, mostly technology, which those kinds of kids should be guided in learning as this has a big impact on them, but those kids that just want to play and nothing else is to be desired should not be pushed to learn as it is useless as they can't understand it. It would be preferable if those kids already showed interest in learning how to earn money, which is the best time to teach it to them.
1938  Economy / Economics / Re: My survival strategies in this harsh economic conditions on: March 06, 2023, 08:23:43 AM

Growing some crops: We have little space in our compound and we have started a vegetable garden which has cut the cost we spend on vegetables. We have also started plans to develop eight plots of land Cassava farm that can provide a year-long supply of our main staple food called the "garri".


This would be a problem for those who live in the city and have no extra space, but I've seen new technology right now about vertical farming and hydroponics, which is really good for those who have no soil or extra space, though it would still be beneficial if you have backyards as you can easily plant. Most of this was done in province, not just to save money but also to be healthy since you'd be cooking it yourself rather than buying it outside. Even just planting it in a single pot can save you money over buying it.
1939  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did they not know about the importance of Bitcoin? on: March 06, 2023, 07:25:45 AM
It's pretty weird what your point is in posting this thread, like you are talking to them stupidly about selling it. Imagine they sell it for a purpose and for a reason, and because of their sell, there is a huge jump in the popularity of bitcoin all over the world. I find it cool and amazed that it was the first time to buy pizza using virtual currency and those other things before, because that year the internet was not known at that time and only a few people had it.
1940  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never Trade on Emotions on: March 06, 2023, 05:03:21 AM
I would like to give some advice, especially to those who are new to the market. Whoever there is a pump in the market, you think you should invest in Bitcoin and Altcoins and you may benefit from it. But after your investment, the market goes down, and you think you are losing money, so you sell everything, again when you see the market go up you invest. This may you to get hurt again and again and again. So whenever you have to invest, invest a small portion of your portfolio. Never trade on emotions calculate well and then invest in it, also the type of people who lose in trading the et are the ones who"
- panic
- Doubt
- Hurry
- Fomo
- Angry
- worried
A major key for a trader is your enemy is always his emotions.

I just want to clarify a little bit OP, When we say emotions, it's quite a broad matter, to be honest. Why did I say? Because the feeling of fear, doubt, anger, and worry are part of our emotions or human nature.

All that is needed is to use our emotions correctly without affecting our assets. Just like we need to be calm enough to think properly and correctly about what to do.

OP thinks about the factor of emotions that affects his trades, meaning he can't control his emotions, like if there is hype, he will then jump in, or when he loses, he will always think negatively and end up losing or selling his assets. When it comes to calmness, for sure we are calm while we plan out a trade, but sometimes because we are very eager to trigger that trade, we missed those confirmation signals that would make our trades go on our own  way and that is why we lose.
