201  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can you earn with gambling? on: November 05, 2015, 03:46:53 PM
usually people tell how to win and earn money, but only include last winning, without loss on earlier bad gambling game

That is the point. Everyone who play to win money is remembering only last winnings. It is the first step to be addicted!
gamblers tend to remember two things, their winnings, no matter how small, and their huge losses. and i mean huge losses as in a significant portion of your net worth, not the five dollars people deposit into a dice site for 3 seconds of fun. no one even gives a second thought to those rolls.

As a gambler, here is my personal professional opinion.  Do not try to win big because you will not.  You need to know the game you are playing.  You need to understand the odds and understand that the House always wins.  If I am betting 20,000 Satoshi, I will dip out when I win 2.5% for each gamble I am doing.  It does not seem like a lot, however if you roll it over all in over and over, in about 500 turns you will have a nice chunk of change.  The key is getting to that 500 mark.  I am in day 34 of my project with this and I have over 2,000,000 Satoshi or .02 BTC from doing this.  I always cut back 1/2 when I double allowing me to play again if I loose out, which I have.  Hope this helps you build your strategy.  Good luck.
professional implies you gamble for a living, and if youre talking about 50 cent - 10 dollar bets, youre probably not a professional gambler Cheesy

I've earned $12 in btc for the first time and lost it all thru dice lol. I thought I could win.

hell, that's all? no worries, move along son. Wink

$12 could be a large amount of money in some countries. If it is a large amount in your situation, then do not bet it all in a dice game. Keep some for your living.

that $12 is already enough feeding a poor family on a third world country on a whole day Cheesy i'll consider that a big lose if i lost that amount since i am living on a third world country. though i already lost more than that overall on dice sites Grin
if he really needed that 12 dollars to feed his family, then maybe he shouldnt have used it to feed his family instead of gambling it away Roll Eyes
probably isnt from some third world country if he has the internet connection to connect to this site though.
203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: November 04, 2015, 03:09:21 PM
Not wrong but if you're getting too much into it. try to stop

That is right. Gambling is just a way to pass time, by using money. That is no different from other activities such as cycling, climbing and travelling. All those activities cost money and time.
but with gambling, you just tend to "spend" your money a lot faster when things go wrong Grin
You can get addicted to anything, not just gambling, alcohol, or cigarettes. Gambling in itself is not wrong, However, getting addicted to it so badly that it destroys your life is wrong. I have friends who gamble for fun each weekend, and it does them no harm, but they tell me stories of a few gamblers who lost money to pay for electricity bills by gambling it, leaving their entire families without electric.

There is no problem gambling for fun every weekend. As long as family life is not affected, gambling is a good entertainment.
only if you can afford to lose that money. if you have debts or bills to pay, you should never be gambling with that money.

I got some from an interest in a p2p loan.
youre pretty lucky then, from what i remember those loans on p2p lending sites usually end up defaulting and theres not much dont about the scammers Angry
211  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Can someone please explain "Private Key" and "Public Key" on: August 23, 2015, 08:42:42 AM
Hello,


Public key is your Bitcoin adress.
This address can be seen by all.
Private key is your protection for bitcoins.
If I have your private key and your wallet is not protected with password,I can spend your bitcoins.
password protection doesnt matter if you have the private key. the private key alone would give access to control of the bitcoins associated with the public address of the private key.
212  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How earn 1BTC a year? on: August 23, 2015, 08:38:54 AM
Find a good signature campaign, use those payouts to buy in on various alts and hope one gets rising!!!  (but you'll lose if the coin fails, obviously - in that case, hold in BTC  Grin )

yes I used to play a signature campaign with payment altcoin, I also do not think it turned out paid more than bitcoin, because when that time the coin prices are rising. but for now I think it is rare and did not last long like payment by bitcoin.

Just throwing at random alt coins wont really help.  It's essentially gambling.  You should know what your doing and have reasons for the specific altcoin.

If you are just gambling and picking random altcoins you chances are would be better off with just holding bitcoin.  It is the safer bet and takes much less knowledge.
dont forget about the time investment to research the altcoins you would be picking up, I would think it takes more than a few minutes to dig through the forum and other places to get a good feel for the con's future if youre capable of that sort of stuff.
213  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which bitcoin wallet is the safest and the most convenient? on: August 23, 2015, 08:33:49 AM
Why does everyone keep asking about this question, can we just discuss it in a same topic. So please search any other topic that has the same question, before you asking it.
BTW I use Multibit, easy to use and lightweight. Grin
electrum is great too, and one thing it has over multibit is the ability to adjust the tx fee and also choose which addresses outputs are spent from.
214  Economy / Economics / Re: Will a bank being hacked boost adoption of bitcoin? on: August 22, 2015, 03:14:21 PM
if this happens world wide it would be more of the panic and drama that might just get too violent just because people would want to cash out their accounts and we all know the banks never have the real amount of money they use to lend or move around.
the panic and drama would likely cause the economy to come to a halt as the banks would no longer have capital to move around as well, nothing good can come of a situation like that.
215  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: August 22, 2015, 05:51:34 AM
The best way to save money - invest successfully!

To invest successfully first you need to save money then only you can think of investing. So investing is different from saving money.
plus, investing isnt risk free, you might actually end up losing money if the investment fails. setting aside some of your income and never touching it until retirement or some other later time is a good way to save money on a regular basis.
216  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 22, 2015, 05:49:44 AM
investing in bitcoin or saving your fiat money/bitcoin, just remember the risks vs the potential profits. no investment is guaranteed profit, but having your money sitting around isnt too bad either in terms of financial stability/security.

Just small portion of your saved money invest in bitcoin to gain more profits if bitcoin prices go up. Do not invest all your savings in bitcoins
thats investing to profit in fiat money in the future, and if course it doesnt make sense to put all your money into bitcoin if you only intend to hold it as an investment. if you plan to use it, it is possible to live on bitcoin.
217  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin as a Retirement Account on: August 22, 2015, 05:40:40 AM
very nice if bitcoin can be used as a fund after we retire from work, which is expected bitcoin exchange rates on the future will increase and can be used up to the day our parents, hopefully the price will be more stable bitcoin exchange ...  Grin
having retirement funds in bitcoin might not be a fantastic idea in the current economy, the volatility could lead to financial insecurity in the case of a price drop. if bitcoin becomes more stable and living solely on bitcoin becomes a realistic and convenient possibility in the future, maybe.

219  Economy / Speculation / Re: PRICE DOWN on: August 22, 2015, 05:33:18 AM
yes, the current bitcoin prices are down dramatically
I hope this is only temporary
it is temporary, the price should rise again when all this FUD with the fork related stuff settles.
