Just keep reminding your self the money you are going to spend on gambling needs to be done without any earnings which can give us self control while we lose bets and when we win we just have to walk away with that and feels lucky for that.

I've been addicted to gambling before and I am also doing this the time I am realizing I have enough but it is not working. I thought, if my bet win I will be leaving this area but after that a rooster with good body will be fighting or sometimes you know the owner of it so you continue to bet talking to yourself again about getting out until it becomes, I will get out once I got my losses. Continuing, in the end it will be I hope I stopped at that time. To explain this, it is easier to say this than to do it.
2282  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - A Game of Luck or Strategy on: March 08, 2019, 04:58:27 PM
Gambling is a game of luck and I don't see anything strategies in it.
-snip-
I tend to agree with such statement.
There is no strategies when it comes to chance based games. Notion of strategy existence in gambling, can give us false understanding and unrealistic sense of security. Gambling technique or systems can be considered true but not tactics nor strategy is adequate here. Most of the time it all comes to "try and error" - pure luck, adding extra ideology to it is potentially dangerous and can bring unnecessary losses.
Yep, chanced based games like roulette or slot machines or dice game. There's no way that you can put a strategy in those games and the likelihood of you winning is very slim unless you really exited on time and not play that long because the house edge will catch up on you.

A lot of people know that. Even though that is the fact, still there are a lot of people playing those and I am not talking about some but a lot of people keep on playing them and kept playing even though they are losing a lot of numbers. I know that there are chances that they can win, and I can't stop them from gambling but they should pick a game that will keep their numbers up like sports betting that don't really depend on luck.
2283  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling addiction a disease? on: March 08, 2019, 02:58:43 PM
If gambling is a disease then it can be solved by taking a aspirin unfortunately it won't work that way. Its up to that particular person to fix himself up

In my opinion, I don't think gambling is a disease, for me it is a disorder. There are a lot of kinds of diseases nowadays and how you earn them is through bacterias, heriditary, from other people and a lot of ways. In terms of  disorder, it might be because of the state you are in before you got the disorder or also it is hereditary. For me gambling addiction is a mental disorder, you  don't know that you are prioritizing the wrong thing,you are spending your money endlessly to something that will destroy you in the end.
I think it's only a proverb, not literally interpreted. addicts can be called diseases because they attack and damage you inside. if you don't treat it properly then it will be very detrimental to you in the end, of course it does not mean the addict is really a disease that is only a proverb`

Well, believe what you want but that is proven. You can just google it if you don't want to you can just click in this LINK. Addiction for example Gambling addiction, Cigarette addiction, Liquor Addiction, and Drug Addiction is a disease. It is true that Liquor, Cigarette and Drug addiction can damage your body but talking about the whole addiction, it is a disease.

..gambling is fun..but make sure that you gamble the amount of money that you are afford to lose..yeah you're right..all of this disadvantages will come to you if you let it happen..your wealth,friends,families will gone and worst of it there is a possibility that you will suffer from a great depression..but this will not go through if you have control in yourself..just use gamble for fun and have a mindset that if you gamble too much,,you will everything you have..
I think the biggest disadvantage is thinking how much you're going to win, that's where the frustrations begin when you can not reach the goal, which could be amended to think, how much are you willing to lose? It would be the option that would transform a disadvantage into an advantage.
You're right because the ego of how much ones will win was one of the thing that lead majority of gamblers depression but gambling with the amount ones cant afford to loose as Carrel said and playing to recover losses was what keep the addiction going simultaneously.

I don't agree with this. I know these since I am addicted to gambling in the past. After a game, I would regret that I did not bet on this side, not bet on the other side, something like that but if I will be gambling again, I never thought of my losses as my aim at that point is to win. I don't really stick to the luck-based games as we all know that it would be really hard to win. I usually bet on cockfighting at that time and also some small sports betting as I am new to that kind of gambling then.
2285  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin adoption: Don't just sit down, do something on: March 04, 2019, 10:46:13 AM
If we want to make this a realization, then we have to first educate newbies and people who think that Bitcoin is just a ponzi scheme and people using to buy illegal stuff, after we educate them and they accepted this technology, they will integrate it to their lives and businesses.

We may educate them but will they be using it? I am that kind of person that do something if I know that it will create or have an effect on something but if I know thay it won't work, I don't do it. I am not that positive into something and I think even if we educate them about Bitcoin and crypto currencies, they will not be using it. They will just know what Bitcoin is and it will be great even if some start to use it or invest on it but I think if they are good investors they should Bitcoin already, right?
2286  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - Make things possible on: March 03, 2019, 02:24:25 PM
Truly, Bitcoin has a lots of interesting things that made into my life. I could say that Bitcoin made a lot of changes in my life that make thing better, make some of my dreams come true too. I am so much thankful that I have been come and engage into the world of crypto.

Bitcoin gave me a lot of profit in the past, when the price of Bitcoin is so high. It is a regret of mine not selling at that time but still, it did gave me a profit. As I said it did gave me a profit but not that much as yours maybe. I think you are a great investor, can you give me some advice? That would be really great.
2287  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing in Bitcoin in 2019? on: March 03, 2019, 11:44:19 AM
Bitcoin is still the most valuable and profitable cryptocurrency right now, and it is predicted to keep this first position for several coming years. So it is always profitable to invest in BTC, regardless of its actual price, because the price is volatile and going up and down all the time almost.

"Regardless of its actual price"?

What does that mean? Is the price pumps to $10K and the price are having a sign that it will be dumping you will still invest? No, you should look at the price as it is really important. Not just important because it will give you a profit but it is, it really is. It is the reason why you invested in cryptocurrency or Bitcoin in the first place, to earn money.

Yes, people invest in Bitcoin because of profit. But when it was said that is good to invest in Bitcoin regardless of its actual price, it was meant that maybe at the moment the price is low but because of volatility this will change and the price will rise. So, now it's the good moment for buying more coins for the future profit.

Well now, it is a great time to invest again. The price of it is not that high and it might even go lower, if that happens, people might invest again and might trigger another pump in this year. I hope it just goes as I said it though I don't think that is just that easy. I am just happy I am also patient since that is really needed as a investor.
2288  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we get people to use bitcoin as a currency? on: March 03, 2019, 11:25:21 AM
If we want this, of course, there is a big role from the government of each country that indeed must be able to provide a big rule in every country where they can legalize cryptocurrency as an investment.

If they will be accepting Bitcoin in their country, that just means they are openminded and they accept new technologies that might open their citizen to new possibilities or new things that can or might improve their country. Bitcoin is legalized in our country, even though it is not that popular to our people since we are just a third world country.
2289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How safe is Bitcoin gambling on: March 02, 2019, 11:58:17 PM
Hello friends

How safe is bit coin gambling is it worth?
If yes and than how to play and where to play?
can now make a living on this gambling?
waiting for your opinions guys.

hope all good. Wink

This depends on the gambling sites that you are playing and obviously the game that you are playing. Some say that we should not be gambling as gambling will make our lives worst but that depends on what are you doing with your money when you are gambling and what game are you playing. You can make a living if you know what you are doing, always remember that.
2290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: March 02, 2019, 03:10:08 PM
Yeah it possible to lose all you have in gambling we need to accept that if the gamblers isn't use selfcontrol and discipline in ourself to avoid this scenario, play gamble just for fun not for anythings else example dreaming quick rich.

Why would people gamble for fun? I don't understand that. People might gamble, they gamble to have a good time, to enjoy, to be thrilled but I don't think that they are just gambling for fun, they are gambling to earn money. If they are just gambling for fun, they can use or spend that money into other things that can give them more fun than gambling.
2291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: March 02, 2019, 02:46:23 PM
Everyone including me think of quiting after losing but one can quit it in reality. Although I don't gamble with big amounts, sometimes when I lose everything, I think of quitting it but I got failed.

I don't know what you are playing but as an addicted gambler in the past, I can say that you are playing the wrong game. In reality, gamblers don't really lose that much money as most of the addicted gamblers won a lot of money, well a large amount of money already and that is the reason they are getting more addicted to gambling. I did lose a lot of money but I can guarantee you, I've won a lot of money before that.
2292  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you want to see for Bitcoin - A stable or a volatile market? on: March 01, 2019, 11:34:07 AM
a stable market makes it easy for traders to get results, and traders need not feel threatened at any time due to sudden price changes. this is my opinion, maybe your opinion is different that is normal ...

Well, for some investors, Bitcoin being a stable investment will be great. You don't need to worry about your investment and I think it will be more popular than ever. Being popular means it will be also having great price pumps, that will invite more investors to invest on Bitcoin and also to other crypto currencies though we can't do anything about that now.
2293  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What cryptocurrency would you engage to gamble in? on: February 28, 2019, 10:09:55 AM
I wouldn't gamble using BTC because it might take up to an hour for confirmation. I would prefer something that's much faster such as XRP or DGB.

I agree with it though I don't really transact my crypto currencies on gambling sites, it is more efficient to use or gamble with cryptos that are more faster to transact as we can enjoy our time from gambling.
2294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any valid reason to continue gambling? on: February 23, 2019, 12:10:29 PM
If you do gambling just to unleash your trapped emotions, then maybe that's your valid reason why you are into gambling. But most people are into this business, hoping someday they will hit the jackpot of their lives. That will be a big mistake and you will fall hard if that's your main purpose.

Come on man, you should not say business but the money. Being addicted because of the business and being addicted because of the money is different from each other. If we are speaking about the business, what I have in mind is that you are the owner of that certain gambling site or gambling place or casino. Well, if you are an owner of a gambling place or a casino, that is a good business.
2295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: February 21, 2019, 12:54:19 PM
Do not get discouraged, a few days are lost, but others are won and won big! The important thing is to raise your head and move forward, life gives many opportunities to get up and if life gives those opportunities believe me the game will also give them! Wink

This has to be some of the worst advice I've seen anyone give to a gambling addict.
Probably because he is a gambling addict too. I don't have any evidence to prove this but I guess no one will give such advice except for those who already hooked too much because they already don't know what is right or wrong.

We don't know that. I can even see that this post is not that serious as it seems since we can all see that wink emoji at the end, we don't need to take this post seriously. Gambling will really eat your Brain, your money and also your time as you will be spending most of your time in the casino or in the gambling sites unless you have a gambling bot, but still.
2296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you play loteries ,did you won something on: February 21, 2019, 12:22:48 PM
I did try my luck on the lottery but it is a bit boring for me. It is true that it is exciting to wait for the night when the draw is coming but it is really frustrating seeing the numbers you thought but then again you follow your guts and change that number and then in the day of the draw, that number is shown, that number that you changed in which you first thought will show up but you changed it. It is really frustrating.
2297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: February 21, 2019, 11:35:17 AM
I guess this is where your problem lies.  You always have high expectations in a game of probabiity., This is probably whAT it results to gambling addiction.
Sometimes we need to learn to control this things and don't let them control us

Well, to gamblers, it doesn't really matter if the probability of success or winning the game is low as long as they are enjoying what they are doing and also winning a good amount of money, it is fine. I know this because I am addicted to gambling in the past. It is a terrible experience and I am still regretting wasting my money there as I can do a lot of things right now with that money but it is fine since I now know that it is a mistake and we all know we should really learn from it.
2298  Economy / Economics / Re: CryptoCurrencies around the GLOBE on: February 17, 2019, 11:28:35 PM
As the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies are spreading around the world we can see most of the countries are coming forward and implementing guidelines and the rest of the countries are using their in talks with policymakers

We can't do a thing about it. They are the government and all we can do is to disagree or agree with their decisions. If they will be legalizing Bitcoin and cryptos with some certain guidelines, I think it is fine as long as they will not be banning it. There are some countries that tax Bitcoin so I think we should be grateful as in our country, Bitcoin is not being taxed.
2299  Economy / Economics / Re: Can my economy be fulfilled in the future with Bitcoin? on: February 17, 2019, 10:30:58 PM
If you expect your economy in the future to be better then you must be able to work hard, and not be too dependent on crypto profits, at prices that are difficult to predict then it is too risky.

That is right, working hard is the only way you will be having a good economy in the future. You can invest on crypto currencies but you don't need to rely on it since it is really risky. Instead, you can rely on other things like your work or business as they really need a lot of your attention. On cryptos, you just need to be patient and wait.
2300  Economy / Economics / Re: What should I choose on: February 17, 2019, 12:13:51 PM
I think that you should choose a business, your friends will help you, advise you and teach you.
A cryptocurrency is a risky business, and here you need to have extensive knowledge,
It is best to go into the business, and some free money to invest in cryptocurrency.

Well, even though they will be of help to you, it will still depend on how you will take your action and how will you take their advice. Even if you choose the business, it still has its consequences and I think you should really think carefully about it. Though if I am in that situation, I will still pick starting my own business as I can make investing in crypto currencies my part-time.
