Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?
When you are rich you can get away with many things. Nobody, questions whatever you do rather people would give excuse on your behalf. Technically, a successful gambler can never be an addict or struggle with gambling addiction. Afterall, show me a gambling addict who is successful, people would say. But come to think of it, unless the successful person got his wealth through gambling and spends their whole day gambling they may be tagged addicts. However, if their wealth was gotten from hard work and they love to gamble, I wouldn't say they are addicted maybe it is just a hobby something that makes them relax. Firstly I would like to point out that no one can actually be successful through their gambling because your success will always go back to the source where it came from whether in large quantity or small one. But for what you said about a successful taking gambling as a fun part of his life that I can relate very well and an example will be drake the hip pop artist, I mean the man is already successful and still loves to gamble and he doesn't gamble little funds as his stake are always high but no one actually calls him an addict. |

Gambling is a game that has an addictive effect. Most people who have joined gambling sites will find it difficult to get out of the gambling circle. It doesn't matter how much you lose at gambling, as long as we still have money, we will continue to gamble
Can you share your first experience playing gambling? and who told you about gambling sites?
I myself know gambling sites from my own friends. I idly and try to deposit. Starting from playing with a little money, after a while I didn't know how much money I had spent playing gambling
Well my first gambling experience turned out to be a whole big trap for because it was on my first try that had a quite impressive win although it was during my secondary school days and my older friends were the ones that invited to the casino where I actually took my first try and had a win on that try and I can recall how I felt during that time. After that day I always went back to the casino never knowing this casino just hustle me and this time when I went back it was like rain with the losing streak. |

If na buhari remove am since then the price of fuel for no they where e dey now the price for don rise more than the current one since. we all know that, but wetin they there be say, when buhari they as the president of Nigeria, the actual amount of money that suppose to go where them they pay for the subsidy no they go complete, some set of people they chop am, and that is why by that time you go see say price they rise sometimes and fuel go scarce.

Another move from the Arabian team and Al Hilal. This time they target Sergej Milinković-Savić, while Inter Milan and Juventus tried to hire this player who is under contract with Lazio until 2024. They couldn't pay enough money and that's why Savić is going to play in Al Hilal in the next season for 40m.  Wow! Its like the Arab league is now becoming a center for good player to move to, since the full declaration of the football association in Saudi Arabia to turn their league to one of the most watched league in the world they have been putting all the talks into action because more Europe league player are now trooping to play there and if not for any reason for the fact that the league pays quite well. |

What procrastination has to do with investing? When investing is more on a passive side. In fact, a lot of lazy people just try their luck in investing thinking it will bear them a good wealth later on. Procrastination only becomes a bad thing if you are already a poor person. Even if you badly want to invest, you cannot do it because you have no money in your pocket.
We are getting closer to the halving event and we can feel the vibe already because crypto prices are now starting to get stronger again. People should act now quickly before they regret and complain that the price is already high. We know, this is a common mentality here.
I like to think its not only those who don't money to invest that always procrastinate, someone who has the funds but lacking proper and full knowledge of what he is putting his money into can also procrastinate when it comes to acquiring some BTC because he will be skeptical about the price and thinking that would be thinking that every time he would want to invest is going to be the wrong time and so doing miss all the available opportunities to actually start an investment. |

I go say this problem dey very common for our country. Some parent no dey know say everybody get him time when he go shine. God no fit bless everybody the same time. Those parents wey dey downgrade their first pikin because say he never make money,those parents like money too much and why them the parents no make am when them young. My parent no dey like that,instead na pray and how to help the situation on ground na e my mom go dey reason. I don see this kind of thing well,and sometimes that pikin wey first get money wey make them downgrade the first child dey end up getting the money in a wrong way. Actually,I no see any fault from parents wey dey act like this,where dey vex me pass na if the younger one wey don dey help the family small small no come dey respect him senior.
You know say money get spirit wey dey follow am and e go hard to see house wey the younger one nai dey feed and still get respect for the others wey be him senior. I fit use one of my friend household as an example the house na their younger brother nai dey feed the house and the boy no dey gree do anything for the house again as him don turn oga and everyone just dey quite because na there food dey come on a daily. |

Spurs of course doesn't want to let Kane go because he is their best player but if they can make some decent money for him, at least that would be good and they could say that they came out of that with as little damage as possible. Of course after that they need to get a new striker, I suggest someone cheaper and younger that they can develop into something bigger, and they should even sell Son as well, could make some money from that and get another younger cheaper player as well.
Spurs should look into what Dortmund has done and try to do the same thing, get young players, make them play at Spurs which already increases their value and then sell them later on to make tens of millions of dollars every year and build a better team slowly with that income.
For me, I think Harry Kane is the one who has decided by himself to actually stay in the club because if the guy really wants to leave the club he would have threaten them to leave and not sign any contract with Tottenham again because if his contract actually expires he will be free to go as a free agent. On the other hand Tottenham are also scared of losing him because he is their best and also one of the beat striker currently in the world today but the club should consider his age and make arrangement for younger stars like you said . |

At least you have learnt from your mistake and thats a common part of every human life as mistake is really unavoidable but the only thing you are to do is to learn from that mistake. I want to tell you welcome as you are still not too late to join in the race and hustle of actually benefiting from the wonderful initiative which is bitcoin, bitcointalk is certainly the right place to learn and know everything about BTC that you have had wrong view about.

Haha, addiction to gambling is lot a curse my friend, it's just a gambling disorder, lucky ones still find a way around their addictions before it turns chronic, while the unlucky ones, well, like you said, keep gambling even after they've gone bankrupt, they can go hungry the whole day provided they find some money to satisfy their gambling urge.
I know someone who made hundreds of thousands of dollars from gambling. But he got so addicted to gambling that he lost that money by gambling, he even sold his favorite bike and gambled with that money and lost. In fact, we have a lot to learn after seeing this kind of real experience, that we have to be emotionally strong in every place so that we don't have to put ourselves in bad situations due to our wrong decisions. Many gamblers have committed same mistake and in most of the cases its not actually because they lack control over their habits, I like to think that greediness and not being content also plays a major contributory factor for this gambler to have actually gone A-wire and lost control to the extent of even selling his motor bike and other stuffs. |

Can you explain me why i need to learned gambling?
Simply put, here only millions of money are managed by asset owners, so where i have no money. In fact, i have ideas about gambling, but I don't have the ability to spend money there.
Gambling is very interesting when you do it for fun and not for profit. You should only gamble with funds that you can afford to loss so that it isn't going to take anything from you. Don't see gambling as something bad and don't involve in it if your conscience is against it. Gambling has been part of human nature and has ever being there before cryptocurrency was created. I enjoy it when am gambling with friends on weekends. Gambling is bad when someone lack self-control on his gambling activities and turn into an addict. Gambling like other habit turns very negative if abuse and how does someone abuse his gambling habit ? By playing and thinking that gambling can be your escape root to all your problem. Many gamblers see gambling as a way to earn massive which is not bad but should not be their major priority because the act is a two way thing which is loosing and winning. |

Yes, Harry Kane already played with Tottenham for a long time, it is time to get a new team. Sure, Harry Kane becomes a special player in Tottenham, he showed that the team relies on him, he is Tottenham machine goal. He also becomes a captain that have a big role to lead Tottenham players in the field.
True, if Tottenham doesn't sell him in the current transfer window, Harry Kane will leave Tottenham with free agent in the next season. His contract expires in June 30, 2024. Or Tottenham may try to extend his contract for more years again.
One good reason for Harry Kane to leave Tottenham and join another team can be the champions league, we know Tottenham had a bad performance in the past and they couldn't get good results and that's why they even changed Conte and used another coach but it didn't work. I think Kane wants to get some achievements in the champions league and this can be the reason for him to join Bayern Munich instead of staying in Tottenham. Kane had so many opportunities to leave Tottenham in the past but he was very reluctant to leave the club because of the zeal that he has playing in England and Tottenham precisely. If not he would have been more successful in his football career. I don't know maybe back then he thought that only him will be able toake a difference for Tottenham by winning title for his club all alone. I am happy that he has noticed that sticking to one club especially Tottenham will no longer benefit him if he wants to win the champions like league. I believe he will be able to achieve this,if he moves to Bayen Munich. Kane is a very excellent players and he has proven this over the years by sticking with his club in the premiere despite big offers from different league giants like real Madrid and others but I feel taking or making the decision to leave the club now is rather a bit kinda late because he is almost at his low peak point looking at the age left for him to be in his prime. |

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?
VPNs should not be used in casinos that prohibit it in their TOS, although some casinos accept VPN use. In this case the gambler can conduct his normal gambling but can restrict his account after a big win. So as a responsible gambler each of us should be absolutely safe from our own place. While some gambling platforms are flexible with VPN usage, not all gambling platforms are the same. I would definitely avoid sites that don't allow VPN use. And if someone wants to use VPN with risk, he will be responsible for it. But there are some casinos that look for excuses and very small things to punish the gamblers out of their money, and such casinos will never take even the smallest things lightly like using a VPN for only logging into the platform but not gambling, they will take that and use it against you only to confiscate your funds. Indeed a lot of casino are actually looking for slight error from their customers especially when he or she might have acquired some huge winnings, I have seen many casino online restrict users of their big winning due to some violation of their Tos and the problem is no one actually have time to even read these TOS in these gambling sites so for me I just go through the FAQ of the casino to actually have some insight not to violate any of their regulations. |

It's one thing to wish to be as rich as Dangote and am sure anyone here would agree to a mentorship program by this man. That is yourself and not all, people like me will never and ever attend such program, if Dangote is my mentor then I have ruin my life be dat. I consider him one of Africa's greatest entrepreneurs mostly with the completion of Africa's biggest refinery, in Lagos. It is an enormous achievement by a true visionary. Lol!!! Many people know the wealth of Dangote and you are not nawaoo. Yes he is di rich but if everyone withdraw their money from him, im no go take 20 sef. So, he was advising young entrepreneurs to be careful in spending their money, mostly as the business is still growing, that living flamboyant lifestyle should be reduced to the barest minimum. Instead the money should be saved or reinvested if the success of the business is the ultimate goal.
He said he doesn't have a house abroad and it is not a do die affair to own one.
Nigerians has expressed their opinions on the advice he gave, and am asking it here to know what we feel he should have added to the advice of reinvesting, besides saving or not buying real estate abroad?
This is the discussion over the radio on Max FM this morning.
Dangote dey exploit you in dis country badly and you are here support im nawaoo. Abi you no no before? Dangote advise na for sef interest and nothing more. Dangote na bi di richest man in Africa, meaning nobody reach for Nigeria yet im dey kill us with high price. Na dat kind person u dey support come ma domont. My mentor don tell me sae, Dangote nai dey suffer us for dis country bcos im get permission to enter any government house and discuss with dem di way im want. My broad no be small oo, me sef na so I see the mata oo dangote just dey exploit we Nigerians because of the upper hand wey him get for the country which is very bad. Him don become so superior wey him even fit dictate some of the issues and decisions for even aso rock. Some things about this man wey I no like be say him go dey sell him goes for outside country for smaller price and for here the price na almost x3 of the sold ones outside. |

In my opinion, Andre Onana might not be suitable for a value as high as 60 million euros. The quality is good, but it's a rather insane value for a goalkeeper who is 27 years old. Manchester United have to be very realistic about their high bids, but I think there are plenty of other young goalkeepers they should consider.
There are many young players available, but Manchester United is searching for a quality goalkeeper who can perform and confidently step in for De Gea. Onana, the goalkeeper, is still young and active at the age of 27. He won't soon lose the determination to be a good goalkeeper, in my opinion. If Manchester United can afford the 60 million euros Inter Milan is asking for, they should try to sign him. He merits the cost. I think Onana deserves more than the cost. Last year, Inter won a lot of points in Serie A thanks to him. Also at UCL, Inter played the final and Onana's influence cannot be underestimated. If Manchester United sign him, he won't have a goalkeeper problem for a long time. this will be the pros and cons because on the other hand De Gea seems to have begged Man United to extend his contract and is willing to cut his salary and it's all because De Gea has been too long and comfortable at Man United which has made a very long contribution to history. that Man United went through. but on the other hand MU also needs the performance of MU players who are younger and have better talent. this will be the next drama when MU needs Onana and De Gea begs to stay at MU. Manchester United already thinks David de Gea should be replaced immediately with a younger keeper than him, which is why Manchester United are not interested in extending his contract. The less than optimal performance he showed last season was also cited as one of the reasons Manchester United began to look at new goalkeepers who would become their strength under the crossbar. Onana was not simply released by Inter Milan, the price that did not match Inter Milan's wishes was an obstacle for Manchester United, the article they have a limited budget now. This is the 3rd time they have submitted a price proposal, I think this will be a tough negotiation process between Manchester United and Inter Milan. Inter Milan still persist with the price they want which is 60k, while Mancheste United wants a price below that. Well it actually just boils down to whether Manchester united are desperate or not because with all what I have seen so far inter Milan seem to be persistent and they will surely not give in to the reduction of price by Manchester united. If Manchester united really want a new goalkeeper and deem onana to be a perfect choice then I don't think there is any reason to hazzle with price proposal from inter Milan. |

Lack of money to invest in Bitcoin is the only thing that can make someone spend time on learning about Bitcoin, and that is if they found Bitcoin to be interesting, if everything is money to you, the patience won't be enough and you will want to get into business straight away, but lack of money can help you slow down and you will end up reading and reading to know and understand what's happening with Bitcoin and how people are really making money through Bitcoin, actually I am using my own past experience to give advice here, there are possibilities that I would have make many mistakes in crypto space if I don't take my time and started my journey when I don't have money to invest.
But I think there are cases of people having all the money to invest but they still remain cautious to putting their money into bitcoin investment either because of the lack of proper knowledge in what you are actually putting your money. Bitcoin is currently spread and taught to many people out there without the proper basic of it the whole volatility aspect which can make some of these people invest without hesitation thats if the funds is actually available like you said. |

- 2000$ is your betting amount, are you willing to loss it in one day? maybe yes, and maybe not. Now, let's reverse the situation, For example you are the owner of a casino, and you read this question from a gambler, what would you do as a casino owner? will you let this gambler win 100$ daily or Not?
Of course not, right? because you made the casino to do business not to give 100$ every day to a player in your casino. Your intention is to make money, and to make it happen most of the gamblers who enter your casino, your priority is to make them lose and you only let a few win each day., I hope you get my point.
Totally understood and its just the simple truth about the gambling industry because the owners of these casino are actually running a business and every business owner would want in every way possible to be earning profits from his business although for a customer to be actually 100$ every won't really affect a big and well established casino as they are equivalent customers who are actually losing same or even bigger amount everyday. |

Everybody should not quit gambling because they hate it. Gambling is not a profession; it's not an ideal means of making money. Whoever gambles for fun will not think of quitting. Even those who see it as a means of earning money will not stop gambling because they believe that's what can fetch them quick cash. The least likely people to quit gambling are those who have become so addicted to it that they are doing crazy things (like picking pockets, borrowing money, etc.) just to gamble, but it's even more difficult to convince an addict to stop gambling.
Cheers 🥂, Dr.Bitcoin_Strange 👺👺
I suppose you are right but the problem is that most gambling addict never actually admit to themselves the truth that their habit are actually causing problems for them. Gambling is actually quite fun and easy to control if you have actually have set principles for yourself concerning your gambling habit and again one major contributory that can lead every gambler to become an addict is the will to keep chasing your losses which actually is triggered by HUMAN GREED. |

I think Chelsea set a selling price too high for Lukaku which in the end was very difficult for Inter to accept. Lukaku is still good, but I don't think his value is higher than 30 million euros, but Chelsea want Inter to pay more. Loan options are being discussed, but it seems Chelsea just want to sell rather than put him on loan again.
Inter have so far not looked like they are going to force Lukaku's transfer at the value asked by Chelsea, that's because Inter seem to want to save a lot of money for other plans. Chelsea had to make a tough decision about Lukaku but I think 30 million euros is a good value for a 30 year old striker.
Ofcourse Inter Milan will be reluctant to buy the Chelsea man who is past his prime years for £30 million. Such amount for a 30 year old isn’t common, the fact that Chelsea prefer to sell him permanently rather than accepting a loan will make it even difficult to strike a deal. Somehow they will have to find a way around the transfer fee, Chelsea will have to reduce the fee for Inter Milan to get the player this summer. Lukaku might be in his 30s but when it comes to delivering performance he surely doesn't disappoint and I think inter will be well aware of this as lukaku was a prominent figure in their achievement during their last season performance although they didn't secure the title but reaching the finals was a major achievement for them and making a permanent deal with chelsea at £30 million for lukaku won't be a wrong move if they know his Worth. |
