221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Jerwin Ancajas vs Takuma Inoue - Nov 15 on: September 20, 2023, 07:33:48 AM
But then again, it will have to defend his belt against the former champion Ancajas. Jerwin might have a good chance to win as Takuma is not well known to be a puncher like his brother. And Ancajas might have adjusted to 118 lbs already after his 9 successive wins at 115 lbs and most likely he had a hard time making that weight that's why he has back to back loses.

This is a fight that has fans split 50/50. There isn't a clear superior boxer in this matchup, not even the reigning champion. Jerwin has held the championship before, so he's no stranger to this situation. I'm confident he will give it his all, train diligently, and employ a smart strategy to regain his championship. In the bantamweight division, there aren't many vastly superior champions, so if Jerwin wins, he could find more success here, possibly even in an undisputed bout.
We're going to find out once the odds become available, but given that this fight is just under two months away, it's a bit early for betting odds on a match that isn't very well-known. No offense intended, this is a championship fight, but it hasn't gained much popularity, especially since Naoya (the brother of Takuma) left the division. It has gradually lost some of its appeal, and now we're paying closer attention to the super bantamweight division.

Getting quality education is one step to achieve wealth in the future. But we know that it’s still far from reality to make it work. However, educating yourself about buying a property will eventually make your future bright and secured as long as you also know how to run your investment. For me, it’s more practical to invest first for your future, and just get quality education while you are in the middle of your investment.
223  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What type of advice is worth giving such people? on: September 19, 2023, 09:14:12 PM
Invest carefully and cautiously, most particularly for bitcoin. Hacking is very rampant online so make sure to secure your wallet first and never disclose any personal details about your seed phrase as that could put your wallet into danger and steal all the coins you have stored in there. People lost their bitcoin due to their own carelessness, so if they will change that, their bitcoins will be safe and secured.

I appreciate a good user interface. As a sports bettor, I prefer not to see too many markets cluttering the gambling site. In my opinion, simplicity is better. What I dislike in a casino is when the withdrawal process takes longer than an hour; I prefer almost instant withdrawals. Additionally, I expect prompt customer support, where they attend to my queries right away. It might sound demanding, but there are sites that provide this level of service, and that's why I stick with them.

$63 million during Magic Johnson's time was already a fortune compared to the current era. In the past, there weren't as many temptations to spend your money, so if a player earned a substantial amount, they could end up wealthy even after retirement. Nowadays, even with NBA players earning massive contracts, there's still a possibility that they could face financial difficulties, as seen in cases like Delonte West who became homeless.
226  Economy / Economics / Re: Building wealth it's not just one time Luck on: September 18, 2023, 08:12:51 PM

Inheritance is not something that can be expected, especially if we have many siblings, which sometimes becomes a source of contention with our own siblings. Yes... unless you are an only child.

Becoming someone who has abundant wealth is everyone's hope, but this is not our main goal. Our main goal is to be able to manage our finances and business well. Because if we are able to do this then becoming a rich person is not something that is difficult.

If you want to build the wealth in one day,the gambling is the only way to achieve it.But you should have luck to succeed,So build your own empire by the step by step.First start with the regular job and earn some money.Use that money to inverse in the good project,once you get enough profit.It’s essential to start the business,finally you will become the successful person.So it’s big process to get huge wealth.You should hold the entire wealth as the asset in one thing.It may be the process to get huge wealth,you should ready for the process.
Even gambling cannot make you instantly rich just by a single attempt. You're bound to achieve multiple losses at first before you will hit the jackpot prize that will create a big break in your life. But mostly, gambling cannot guarantee you to become wealthy but  will certainly make you homeless in the end. The best approach is still have your own stable job and make it more productive and valuable. Surely it will offer you life changing results at the end of the day.

I don't think it is. Knowledge is power so once you've gained it, that will always be your edge everytime you decide to share information about bitcoin, most especially if you decide to invest in the future. So whether you invest today or in the future, your bitcoin knowledge will never go into waste as you can always educate others through your own knowledge, or even use it to find jobs in the crypto market that caters about bitcoin.
228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 15, 2023, 05:18:07 PM
Canelo will definitely be favoured by the fans. And it is absolutely true that a lot of people know him, even the casual fans as well. But Crawford especially when compared to Canelo is definitely a little less popular in my opinion. But just because we are comparing which fighter is going to have bigger support, does not mean that the fight is not going to be interesting. The fight is really going to be interesting and both of them will be able to bring a lot of people to see this fight. It is I think we can say that this is a much-anticipated fight and the pay-per-view is surly going to be big for this one, if this happens, of course.

There is no need to have such comparison because we all know that Canelo have his whole country to back him in every fight he had, and he will have in the future while Crawford doesn't have that much as the whole USA is somehow divided because they also have their own picks and some of the fans from the US are also backing Canelo.

If only this fight will be determined by how many fans they have, I won't be surprised if Canelo got twice or thrice than Crawford. But since it won't be judged that way, there is only one way to find out and that is to let this two fight.

If these two end up fighting, it is surely going to be a bigger support for Canelo. And that is probably going to give him a good boost of confidence. Definitely, he is going to be the better fighter if this fight happens. But that is the bigger question, if this fight is going to happen or not.

The people in the USA cannot even decide if they are a man or a woman. And how can they decide which fighter to support? LOL. Jokes aside, I am not saying that people cannot have preferences of their own. But the people of the USA are not such a big fan of Crawford, as the Mexican people support Canelo.

Boost of confidence in-terms of the amount of people that will be supporting him in case their fight will be pushed through but it's still hard to say if it will happen or not because Canelo is still deciding whether he will accept the invitation or not because a fight against Crawford will not give him any benefits aside from the money that will on the pot once it will materialize. But for Crawford, he surely got nothing to lose because he doesn't have anything on that weight class aside from his record that is on the line.

And with the money reason I guess if it's really huge and both camps will negotiate in closing the deal maybe the fight can be pushed to happen, though you have valid reason in both sides for Canelo more on money and additional hypes to his career, while with Crawford it will have a much more favorable side if ever that he will win.

Let see if Canelo's camp will be willing to give Crawford a chance to fight him and see if whoever will be the winner, but money wise both will generate a decent amount of money.

We will likely get some more news regarding about this before this year ends, we still have a few months left so there might be some interesting things to happen. Hopefully!

I think Canelo will have to weigh his situation first because of now, he is just viewed as a trophy because he is kind of cracked already and most boxers who have what it takes will take their chances because a fight against Canelo will indeed generate them a good money and of course, those precious belts that he is holding and that is all he has left.
229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: September 15, 2023, 02:47:42 PM
There is no scenario where they keep all their good players and still get Giannis. Mathematically, their contracts wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. Warriors have 209 million dollars salary per year, that is by far first in the league, even with Celtics paying Jaylen Brown insane supermax, its still Warriors ball to conquer. The salary cap is at around 123 million, or so it was last year and I do not know how much it went up this year. It is still easy to say that they are way above that line, and paying a HUGE luxury tax as well. They do have Chris Paul now, no how they managed to make that happen, but it looks like they are paying a ton of money to him, and Wiggins as well. If they somehow trade those two, then maybe? They need to find space, and when you are over 80 millions above the salary cap, that's not easy.

Getting rid of Jordan Poole was a pretty big salary dump. Chris Paul also won’t be around too much longer and could probably be bought out for cheap if it was necessary anyway. I think they would be wise to get rid of Draymond and keep Wiggins, which might be possible since Draymond obviously wants to play with LeBron. Bottom line is that the Warriors would do whatever it takes to get Giannis if the opportunity presents itself.

That might do, overall, the Warriors is still on the pace where they will make an experimentation and if things won't work their way, I won't be surprised if they set free Draymond and Chris Paul to free up some space because either way, it's not giving the team the benefit they wanted. And more obviously, they might want to free some space so that they can have a spot for Giannis, you know, just in case the star will ask for a way out from the Bucks.
230  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN: Give people time! on: September 15, 2023, 10:10:14 AM
We don't need to rush all things. People are just being too much optimistic with the bitcoin and getting hyped, so our regrets about making an investment we are passing through to the people we know can invest and give their courage like we miss out, give them a chance to understand it first not as always we are earning money, and we know older people are afraid to risk their money because it's hard-earned and they want to make sure all of that investment decision they made will result in a good outcome. Well at the end its a good news one of your family member now understand the use of the bitcoin but again its your guidance you are the one who really more knowledgeable with that we know how elder always ask if they manage to take a profit or not.
Learning takes time. There’s always a process for that. If you resort into rushing things, you will never see the real essence of a certain thing. Most especially with bitcoin, where everything seems complicated at first but when you decide to make an effort and research extensively, you will discover that it has its high potentials to succeed in the future, compared to other crypto or non-crypto assets in the market. So when we try to educate people about bitcoin, never expect that they will instantly agree on what we are telling them. Give them time, give them space to do their own research as well. That’s the only way they will completely understand bitcoin on their own.
231  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If they have the ability why would they sell? on: September 14, 2023, 09:36:22 PM
Probably they aren’t getting profits from it in the first place that’s why they decide to bargain it and here come these innocent people trying to take advantage and end up losing their funds in the end. The higher the chances people resort into trading signals to use as their own, the bigger they acquire losses from trading. Except for professional and profitable trading signals providers as they can be reliable, but most of them who sell their trading signals, their actually not worth the penny. Everything that is too good to be true is actually a fake one and will only ruin your finances in the end wishing you didn’t bite the offer in the first place.
232  Economy / Economics / Re: If the global economy collapses what's the first thing you do? on: September 14, 2023, 04:07:36 PM
Honestly if you have BTC congrats !!! We are heading  into a major economic shift and I feel like when the tides are turning like this there should be a conscious effort to land on the right side of that shift!!! Am I right? What should bitcoiners be doing right now to prepare for a potential global economic hardship other than the obvious which is to hodl and accumulate as much as you can...
You are right. Lucky are those bitcoin owners because they have prepared for the worst economy and that while others are struggling on their finances, they will reap the fruits of their investment and live life to the fullest. Probably that was my biggest regret for not knowing and not buying bitcoin earlier. Now that our economy is almost collapsing, then it’s the best time to focus more on bitcoin and prepare ourselves to take risk by investing in bitcoin. If that’s the only way to survive, then I will never stop from accumulating bitcoin. Furthermore, knowing other businesses that have also high potentials to succeed is also one of my goals. If we can take advantage from our economy, then at least we should learn how and where to diversify aside from our bitcoin investment.
233  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The power of influencials and brand ambassadors, don't fall for it. on: September 14, 2023, 09:09:59 AM
I often see this on YouTube but I'm not interested and will just press the next video button. They can use many ways to attract more people to join them. We have to be careful and do research is the best way to avoid being scammed.

Usually, they get paid for certain projects to help spread information about the project. They have nothing to do with the new project and just accept the job offer and get paid. And we can't blame what they give their followers, especially money.

But of the many influencers, some influencers are truly honest in sharing information with their followers. Usually, such influencers have very large and loyal followers.
Good influencers these days are actually rare to find as most of them are just doing it to satisfy theirselves financially. However, there are still few who can be well trusted when it comes to the projects they will promote, but still if you jump to investing without doing your own diligence to research, then you won’t still be successful in the end. Crypto influencers are only there to do their job and even promote projects they aren’t even sure if they will be successful in the future, so investors should also do their part through researching and studying the projects before they decide to invest.
234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How valuable BTC has become overtime on: September 13, 2023, 09:23:56 PM
Maybe one day the latest Apple price will be 0.003. LOL
Turns out there are 3 different but similar threads discussing Apple 15 and Bitcoin.

Currently I'm not with the newly released Apple 15, I glanced at several videos about the Apple 15 review, of course this Apple attracts a lot of attention, especially for those who like cellphones, I don't really care what the cellphone has now, it's quite better and it works.

If you have another question, do you want to buy Apple or Bitcoin?

I answer: Bitcoin Tongue
This proves that bitcoin’s value had definitely skyrocketed in time. So just imagine if instead of buying them an iPhone, you chose to accumulate them overtime, then you could have bought a lot of property by now because of the highly expensive price of bitcoin. At least you’d know that property’s value won’t depreciate in the long run, unlike an iPhone that gets to decrease its value overtime.

Is good to save money for future use so we can make good use of it when ever we need to, now what if you decide to save money in your betting account will that be possible to?
It is possible but it's never been a good idea to begin with and if you will do that, I don't know what will happen to you next as there are lots of risks entailed with it. I mean it doesn't really make sense at all; we are already avoiding banks because their interests cannot match up the growing inflation and then now you are trusting your money with in an online casino just because they are reputable? Remember, it's not your money if you are not really holding it yourself.
236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 13, 2023, 04:36:01 PM
Same with you, Canelo's fan based might bring that money plus the fact that interest if how Crawford will try to snatch the belt under Canelos possession.

We need more updates regarding to any possibility of this possible match up to take place,.

Yeah! you're right because this is the right time to make that fight happen cause Crawford is at the peak of his career and popularity which is why they need to look for a bigger stadium next time in order to make it a real historical event in the boxing history. This is how it should be, no drama whatsoever unlike with Spence they took a long time before they finally stepped in the ring. Crawford wants to make it happen, then Canelo should win his fight and then make Crawford's dreams come true.

It will still Canelo though as the A-side if he decided to fight Crawford.
Because it's obvious that he can still bring fans to whatever stadium is it and so it will result in a good live gate numbers.
Not saying that Crawford can't bring fans, but we all know that he hasn't had that following for casual fans, only hardcore boxing fans are familiar with him.
But the likes of Canelo wherein the whole country is behind it, he is really huge for the last 5 years or so.
And with that, the numbers, PPV and live gate will be very big if ever this fight is going to happen in the next coming months.

Canelo will definitely be favoured by the fans. And it is absolutely true that a lot of people know him, even the casual fans as well. But Crawford especially when compared to Canelo is definitely a little less popular in my opinion. But just because we are comparing which fighter is going to have bigger support, does not mean that the fight is not going to be interesting. The fight is really going to be interesting and both of them will be able to bring a lot of people to see this fight. It is I think we can say that this is a much-anticipated fight and the pay-per-view is surly going to be big for this one, if this happens, of course.

There is no need to have such comparison because we all know that Canelo have his whole country to back him in every fight he had, and he will have in the future while Crawford doesn't have that much as the whole USA is somehow divided because they also have their own picks and some of the fans from the US are also backing Canelo.

237  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Honest question, what to think about “crypto” affiliates or influencers? on: September 13, 2023, 08:59:09 AM
Just wondering for the sake of it, if crypto trading was so profitable for so many influencers and YouTubers, why would they care so much about affiliate money…? Why take the trouble of creating, editing and uploading so many videos? Does this mean that if you see any YouTuber or crypto “celebrity” pumping a product or trying to make a buck out of content, that you should run away from them? ‘Cos why take so much trouble if you are already making money with your trading? Of course not everyone is a trader, but…
Let’s just say that some traders are not satisfied with their profits through trading, and if there’s another way to increase their profits is being a YouTuber or a crypto influencer that attract and convince people to engage in crypto trading. If they succeed, it means more profits will enter into their account, and if they end up failing, surely they will not stop there but continue to create more inspiring videos that will eventually influence the viewers until they decide to enter trading and expect bigger profits.
238  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do we benefit in lies in forum on: September 12, 2023, 09:22:22 PM
They make up stories to gain sympathy and everyone’s attention I guess. Some do this to get merits for their amazing and inspirational stories. I don’t judge whether these stories are real or fake, I just enjoy them and believes them. As long as Bitcoins are associated, I find it very interesting to read about these stories and their life lessons that they got from Bitcoins. I know those stories might not be completely true, but the satisfaction that you get when someone says “My dream came true due to Bitcoins “ excites me a lot.
Most likely some people exaggerate their stories not to lie in the forum but to inspire others that with bitcoin, everything is still possible. It’s not just all about consistent losses, but also life changing success in the end. And I ultimately believe that bitcoin is probably our future. Whether these testimonies are fake or real, I actually don’t care. We all have different experiences with bitcoin, and let’s just accept that some have been greatly living their lives because of bitcoin while others are still working on a progress.
239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: September 12, 2023, 04:11:50 PM
Talking about stars sitting out… It’s being reported that Damian Lillard will not be reporting to training camp unless it’s with the Portland Trailblazers or the Miami Heat. I guess he’s getting worried that Portland is going to use his trade request to dump him somewhere in order to kick off their roster rebuild.

He should be worried because specially now that the league is strong arming against the players who seeks to behave like Dame. I mean, I cannot blame him for that because the remained loyal for years with some hopes that they can give him some players that will help him achieve further but he just in a wrong place and wrong time because of the situation in the league now. Plus, his team still fails to grant his request and the Miami Heat are using this very advantage as they know that Dame only want them that is why they are just offering what they see best and not their best true offer.
240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Jerwin Ancajas vs Takuma Inoue - Nov 15 on: September 12, 2023, 03:17:57 PM
I'm not really viewing Takuma as a threat because he doesn't have that one punch like his brother does.

We should disregard Takuma Inoue being the younger brother of Naoya Inoue when it comes to analyzing the fight.

Instead, we can consider saying that Takuma might not be a threat to Ancajas because of;

a) fighting experience
b) not a Knock Out specialist
c) the WBO Bantamweight title he owned was vacant prior

But personally for me, threat or not, I don't want to think that Takuma Inoue should be an easy fight for Ancajas. He is now a champion and will defend his first-ever WBO Bantamweight title in front of his fellow countrymen. It will fuel more to unleash his best performance as a champion.

Yes, so there's a lot of the shoulders of Takuma Inoue right now. I mean his brother has set precedence in the bantamweight already and we can say that he might want to follow his brother path too to become undisputed by it will not be very easy.
Because in his first title defense, it will be against a former champion and have a good knockout power in Jerwin Ancajas.
And we all know that Jerwin has all the tools to become a world champion again. And so Takuma Inoue here might be in danger losing his first title defense.
Unless he really trains very hard, but then again, even if he is the brother of the Monster, he can't be help by him once the bells ring.
With that majority here might go with Ancajas to win and it will be impressive if he can score a knockout.

That is his reality, he might want to follow his brother's footsteps because that is the goal but he cannot do anything about it because fact is, he is not viewed as a threat in this division. He may be a champion now but judging how he fights in the ring and his record, I can say that he won't be holding these belts for a long time, what more if he thins about unifying all of it. Let's say for example that he ducked Ancajas in this case and chose to pursue the other champions, namely Moloney or Rodriguez, I think his chances will remain the same, only slim.
