1981  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: September 22, 2016, 12:27:33 PM
OKC still has a solid roster. I don't think they finish 7 or 8.

I think they could easily be fighting for a 4-5 seed with the talent and
big men they have. Granted replacing Durant sucks but the rest of the
roster is solid.

Solid but not championship caliber. OKC right now looks to me a team that would be carried single handedly by WestBrook.
I will always bet on the OKC match up this season when it formally starts but this time I will fade myself and bet on the opposing team, they should be more predictable this season although they have a good coach, no wonder westbrook will make it a triple double per game but they will lose.
we cant say that buds as okc got new face and we are not seeing them yet i guess westbrook just needed a back up that will
allow him to rest for a while a player that can give some points for them while westbrook resting at the bench.
At the gamblers point of view I would not expect the OKC will even make it to the playoffs, it is a different story when there are many stars in a team as no man can carry his team alone, even kobe needed shaq then gasol to make it to the championship. Westbrook not even the level of kobe on his prime.

I do not think so that bitcoin will be popular if the price would be stable because more people like bitcoin due to its fluctuating price they can earn lot of bitcoin on trading and also the advantage of higher value of bitcoin.
You don't get the point dude, bitcoin will not be stable if this currency will not be popular, it will happen because when the supply will be fully distributed more people will interest to own bitcoin and the price will not be manipulated.
1983  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: September 22, 2016, 12:15:03 PM
I don't know about many  ways that I can tell you, tbh, but I  think you can achieve better  results with a proper planning and control  over your own expenses.  These are simple things, but that  always make a considerable difference.
We have to learn how to sacrifice a bit and not just buy anything we want, pretty sure we do not need all the things we buy and we will just leave it unused after a certain period, so we should be wise and think twice before spending, instead focus on savings and for the future.
1984  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I quit trading on: September 22, 2016, 09:53:51 AM
I will quit trading if I will lose all my money, trading for me is better than gambling because in trading we can study what we are doing while in gambling it is just all about the luck.
Do not wait for the time the you will lose all your money before you quit, you must be wise to easily understand and determine if you really have a chance in trading, you can always know that when you are do not experience any profit or most of the time you lose.
1985  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 09:49:03 AM
Going all in on Bitcoin is just too risky an investment at this stage in the game. Don't get me wrong, Bitcoin has made great strides over the years, but it's still a young concept. If someone is 100% set on working within the Bitcoin community full time, the safest way to achieve this is as an entrepeneur within the community part time, and quitting your day job if/when you get a successful business model in place.
I would not go full time on Bitcoin because there is not that much that you have to do on Bitcoin.
Full time on Bitcoin means 8 hours per day and you do not need that much so it is better to also have a normal job.

Yup earning from bitcoin can be managed in spare time as we are not into earning it in different ways, so its good to continue with full time job and keep bitcoin as an extra income.
Depends on your way to earn, if you are just earning by signature campaign, then maybe that can be acceptable but if you are a full time trader, I think you need to spend more time to study the market and to be successful.
I agree with that, the real opportunity here is not signature campaign, it is just a small way of making money. The real opportunity to make money is when you learn to investment and if you can make it successfully then I think you should go full time with it.
1986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: September 22, 2016, 09:42:42 AM
I dont think gambling is wrong. but you are wrong if you playing with greedy and you can't control yourself, emotion and your money.

This is the truth, people are saying that gambling is wrong but gambling is just a business and a source of entertainment. It is just going to be wrong if the person who gambles doesn't know how to control his money and emotion as he loses then that is going to be his own fault for making gambling wrong for him and for the eyes of the people.
The first sentence is the right way to define gambling, it can never be wrong because this is just for the sake of entertainment while only those gamblers who look and understand gambling the other way are wrong.
1987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: September 22, 2016, 09:39:49 AM
You need to find another hobby  to occupy your time and attention.  It is important to have the  willpower to do so. If you continue with  the problem, it may be better  to ask the help of someone.

This is the most effective way of staying away in gambling. So if you are a past gambling addict then it is better if you are going to be called as sportsman. Get into sports and leagues that is going to make yourself an athlete and as you are going to get serious with it. You are not going to notice that you are already staying away from gambling.
It is a good idea if you are a sports lover, because when you do that you will be more focus on physical activities which is not only good for your healthy but it also gives you a productive life ahead.
1988  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoins safe? on: September 22, 2016, 09:36:19 AM
Can be used safely, but  I think it depends on the users. The system itself fulfills its  role by providing various security  measures. But the users must take all necessary  precautions to protect their  data and their funds.
That's true, if the user will not exercise proper care of his account it can easily be hack so that is what you called negligence and if you love money you would always make the right measure to protect your investment, there are ways out there to improve our security so we need to take steps to do that.
1989  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why we must trust with bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 09:29:03 AM
With regard to the tech,  I don't see a reason to stop  trusting Bitcoin. The only problem I think you  may have, would be with regard to price  instability, but I believe it's  normal for a currency in  its early stages.
There is no problem yet that have come up that bitcoin can be hack, the whole system is great therefore we trust bitcoin, also the market is getting bigger already and we people who are here have already witness that as evidence by the price increase.
1990  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 09:22:38 AM
Doubling bitcoin is not easy well it's easy if you take very high risk chances you can go to casino and dice for it to double it all or lose it all.
Or you can do services web developing etc it makes alot of bitcoin and you will double yours in no time depending how much you have.

Gambling  can double your coins only if you are lucky, but you cannot expect that you will double your coins each and every time from it and there are full chances that whatever you have won will make you loose in long run.
It can but it is not advisable, when the way is too easy that means it is also risky and when you choose gambling you have to be a risk taker to do that, maybe you will regret if the outcome is not in your favor.
1991  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 09:12:00 AM
Wow! As for me I have until 2020 to work as an employee. Plan seems very ambitious which also means I have to be also aggressive to my investments in order to achieve it. I started to focus on cryptocurrency during my free times, researching and studying. At this moment I only have 3 BTC worth of investment but i'll be adding more in the next months to come. I want to trade and invest on reliable sites. Hopefully bitcoin continues to grow in the years to come.  
Seems like a good plan, just be optimistic that the price of bitcoin will rise in the future as you will be able to enjoy the profit of your investment, anyway you are right that trading is good to learn the real market of bitcoin and not only that because you can make money regularly if you do the right research.
1992  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you buying bitcoins? Why? on: September 22, 2016, 08:50:13 AM
I try to buy some in each  dump, but not very often... I try also to get  something more with the  tasks performed  here in the forum.

Just like these days the price of bitcoin falls so I would like to buy bitcoins as it is a good time for buying today. And I will going to use it for holding only.

But most of the time I am buying bitcoins when I don't have enough bitcoins for trading because I have my own wallet for holding.

And it is the main reason why I am buying bitcoins for trading.
That's the right thing to do and price is below $600 at a moment so I think this is the best price to buy some coins and wait for the price rise so in future to sell them and grab some good profits.
Definitely, you should not think twice because there is no way the price will continue to fall back, I am seeing a good future for bitcoin and in fact I believe this year bitcoin will have a great progress so do not doubt the success of bitcoin and take the opportunity to ride the success by buying now.
1993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: September 22, 2016, 08:41:58 AM
Gambling is very addicting because its fun to play.
Its also that you can win money with it.
People want to win back what they lose so they stay gambling.
and their habits every day to gamble, also affects to their the addict

the addiction slowly grows day by day. that's what make it dangerous. what came slowly will leave slowly too, only things came quickly will leave quickly.
If you have ever tasted a win with gambling then you can become addicted because then you know that it is even possible for you to win.
Now you are going to go more often because know you believe that you are going to win next as well.
I think no one has not tried to win in gambling, we all experience winning but the sad reality is that we lose more that we win because as they say in the end it is still the gambler who loses, we need to accept that reality, hence controlling our self will make us safe.
1994  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2017 Year of the Bitcoin on: September 22, 2016, 08:38:11 AM
I believe 2017 will be a good year for the bitcoin yes. In 2016 it didn't go that amazing but not bad either I'm just hoping for adult steps in 2017 unlike the babysteps in 2016.
You do not even called it amazing knowing the fact that we almost have 100% increase this year, I think this year is the best year so far because we are witnessing how the price have rise abruptly.
1995  Economy / Economics / Re: How to earn money with bitcoin ? on: September 22, 2016, 08:32:52 AM
As you can see, btc is already  money, and there's different ways  to earn bitcoins. You could trade bitcoin,  or sell services for it, you can also join to signature  campaign to earn some  fractions of bitcoin...

Yes and that is why many people are hooked in earning with and through bitcoins.  You really have to be wise on spending and using them as earning them is quite harder.  Signature campaign is why I am here as I have bad experience with investing. Scam investment sites are everywhere and they will make you believe they are legit.  It is better if you would do some trading with your friends who are also into bitcoins. 
Well, if you stop when you failed that means you will not have a chance to make good money in the future, signature campaign is just a way to earn money but not really a good amount of money and we can only use this bitcoin to enjoy, the real earning is thru investing and trading.
1996  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: September 22, 2016, 08:26:36 AM
Trading is a very unpredictable job. One day you can make alot of profit and the other day you can lose it all plus more.
You have to be good at analyzing so you know the risks and which trade is worth it. If you are not good at that you will be bankrupt quickly.
Surely it is, but what matters is that we will be able to bag a profit in the long run, this is not gambling that in the long run we will lose because in the long run we will be able to master the art of trading and that is the big difference although they are both unpredictable.
1997  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: did you put all your money into bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 08:24:31 AM
I put alot of my money into bitcoin It's hard to guess a percentage though but a big part of everything for sure.
I did this because I have to take risks sometimes and bitcoin seemed like the time to take one. They seem promising so i'm keeping my faith and waiting for a increase in value.
That's a lot of risk but if you really believe then you have to accept that, usually those people who loves to takes risk are those people who might be successful, the more you risk the more reward you can get when bitcoin is a big success in the future.
1998  Other / Archival / Re: Do you use bitcoin as currency or investment? on: September 21, 2016, 02:30:02 PM
I regret that I use the bitcoin that I bought to invest on a scam site.  But I still think it is good if you will use it both as currency and investment. 
Don't worry dude cause you are not alone, when I was new in this world I was also a victim of scam sites but I have move one and learn from my mistakes in the past, and now I am already happy with the my standing as I can invest already in legitimate business online.
These are all happens regardless of how you are using bitcoins. Investing into a legitimate business, will not assure you will not get scammed in future because a business may turn at any time.
But saving bitcoin as an investment must be more secure from my experience as no one will able to scam me if I have my bitcoins more protected and also in cold storage.
this is what make an ordinary people yelling bitcoin as a scam thing ,
a lot of people believe that bitcoin investment just s biggest online scam ,
too much scam attempt in bitcoin business world ,
hard to prevent this , so just becareful choosing an investment place.
Even in the real world, there are a lot of scammers so this is just normal, we should be very vigilant here and make the right decision always, we can do that if we make the right research and do not just jump easily on any investment program we see, especially when the reward is too good to be true.
1999  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: September 21, 2016, 02:24:50 PM
The banks offer you a  lot of services that may drain  your money... where the fees depend  on the banking  service you use.  These things don't happen with btc though.
it depends on the size of your savings in the bank if you have enough savings, the interest earned from deposits able to cover these costs.
No, you cannot do that, when you put so much money in the bank which is over the amount of maximum insurance, your money is also at risk. So, I would say that you also diversify your savings in different banks so it will be subjected with the maximum deposits or if you really want to earn big then just invest it in bitcoin.
2000  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing Bitcoins? on: September 21, 2016, 02:16:10 PM
If you want to make money with the bitcoin you should invest into it off course there are so many people who are just holding bitcoins they are not supporting.
Yes, many people are just holding bitcoin and not investing anywhere just because of the risk associated with bitcoin investments usually. They are true believer of bitcoin's future growth. Their calculations must be they could get more profit than investments by simply holding bitcoins for years for price appreciations.
because in my opinion hold bitcoin has included the category of investment will be more painful if you entrust your bitcoin on the investment site are based in ponzi because you will be losing your money.
Never do that if you are a wise person, by simply holding your bitcoins is already a good investment method. you do not need to risk it anymore as the value of your bitcoins will surely grow overtime and I believe it will grow a substantial amount.
