You’ve got a point on that option taking a darker path as the dependent child, not getting access to funds like he previously did and perhaps, has already taken a deep unhealthy liking to gambling as an activity, such child would be forced to acquire money any way he could possibly could including stealing from friends and family and burglarizing houses looking for valuable to pawn for cash.

I would suggest the dependent child that’s 18 to get a job and earns his own money. He would learn the value of money that way and then, might just get wise to how he handles money moving on.

It’a such people you should avoid and not necessarily the land based casinos. There are some weird ass people out there and online casinos has shielded us from ever meeting such individuals. There are some gamblers who having had an unexpected and unwanted outcome, would react very strongly and differently from the average gambler. Such people are found everywhere. Physically in the land based casinos and on the online casinos we’ve got today.

People just have different ways of reacting to unfavorable news. Especially when money used to gamble and losing out on was budgeted for something important.

Russians baseless attack on Ukraine did in fact disrupt the flow of food supply in the world. Ukraine is said to be the breadbasket of Europe. If you had done a little research, it would be clear to you in just a few clicks, just how grains from Ukraine feeds the world.
It’s literally suicide if a country solely depends on another country for food but it hasn’t stopped a good number of countries from largely relying on other countries like Ukraine for a good portion of their food supply.

Africa would seem sufficient in agricultural produce but it still imports a shit load of agricultural products as well with Ukraine being a good supplier of wheats and grains.

There’s no moving coins by “mistake”. Any move made would be quite intentional and Satoshi moving his coins would surely cause a stir in the crypto market. Although, the stir caused by a move would depend heavily on where the coins are being moved to.
If the coins are moved to an address of a known exchange, then there’s the likelihood of the coins being sold for fiat or whatever. Now that’s a move that I think its sure to cause some movements in the price of bitcoin. But if it’s a harmless move from an address to another, it would only confirm he’s still alive and kicking and would cause little to no impact.

For a dependent who receives pocket change from family and goes on to regularly use it to gamble, such an individual who doesn’t really know how not easy it is for a lot of people to earn money, would spend it without giving much thought to how it’s gotten in the first place. It’s easier to burn through money that isn’t earned and for the dependent making bad financial decisions at a young age, it would be easy to grow having these habits.

When an individual has no sense of earning money and using it for himself, that person would have no value for the money being given.

Good question. I sure didn’t see this move coming and I’m curious on his reasons for wanting to end his time at Liverpool. Perhaps he’s tired of English football (or just Liverpool?) and wants something different?
I wonder what’s going to be different in Liverpool when he finally leaves. Who would be suitable for the wide shoes that Klopp would be leaving behind? And what lies ahead in Klopp’s career in the future?

They’ve been speculations on him going over to Manchester United but I don’t see that happening any time soon. I think Man United would still stick with Ten Hag for the moment. But who knows right?

The Saudi league is slowly but steadily improving and building up its league, making known its presence in the international stage. No doubt, it’s bound to climb up the rankings as it continues to scoop up players from Europe into its league.
Having Ronaldo alongside other notable players from European clubs playing in its league is one of the greatest move they had made in its bid to increase the popularity of the league. Its goal is probably still far off but they seem consistent and they’ve got the funds to continue building.

“Opportunity comes but once” is totally false and in my opinion a wrong mentality to have as an individual. Opportunity comes to an individual numerous times in his lifetime. It’s majorly us who sometimes, can’t recognize such opportunities when they come our way or we were totally unprepared for its arrival and failed to utilize it and follow through.
Many has had opportunities that led to financial success but failed to utilize it properly and fell back to where they began. Such individuals won’t be able to utilize another opportunity even if it comes again. So yeah, every opportunity needs to handled and utilized properly.

There are gamblers who are good at doing their own research when it’s comes to sports betting. I wouldn’t necessarily call them “experts” but they’re good at going thorough research on the statistics of teams before a game.
But In football, even the stronger team that’s has all the likelihood of winning the game could go on to suffer a humiliating defeat from the weaker opponent hence making the “expert” predictions wrong.
Knowing the stats of both sides helps to make a prediction of a likely outcome. But the outcome is also anyone’s guess.

I don’t see any reason why a newbie or anyone else would feel hurt whenever someone has a contrary opinion to their thoughts. It brings about healthy discussions amongst members.
Also, there are some threads started by newbies that are redundant and when other members share on the thread their opinions, the newbie feels bad and withdraws back into his shell.

Criticism may be harsh but it’s advice in its purest form and left for the recipient to pick relevant information from the lot. If one gets angry over criticisms, it would be difficult to learn.

The economy of a country would be strong if it has a equally strong and robust private sector that is thriving successfully. The private sector would help reduce the burden the government would otherwise have to carry. The private sector helps reduce the unemployment rate and that in turn help builds the economy.

Obviously, we should not have to wait on the government to make good out of yourself but the government has to put in place policies that would help the private sector grow. Aside policies, an enabling environment would go a long way to enable small business start up and thrive. Without a suitable environment as well as helpful policies enforced by the government, there’s little an average individual can do to be productive for himself and the society.

There are people who I would say unknowingly or perhaps being absent minded, gamble everyday. They’ve been gambling for years and go on to play everyday.
I also think the loss accrued over the years over the course of his gambling activity would be significant. But a gambler with a steady source of income would not realize how much that has been lost over the years but one looking to gambling as a source of income would feel the brunt on his pockets.

It’s easy for one who gamblers everyday to slowly and steadily fall into the clutches of addiction.

Patience in this case would be very useful. Continuous betting could be risky, mostly for the pockets of the person gambling. Playing continuously without pause, perhaps hoping for a miracle in between would not bring your miracle any closer.
A compulsive gambler is no stranger to this as such an individual plays repeatedly and without much thought on the games being played. A level headed gambler who paused and reflects on the time and money spent gambling would pause and head home when it’s time to do so.

Ronaldo as well as Messi cannot be forgotten in a hurry in the game of football. They’ve achieved a lot and has earned the recognition they’ve got.
Ronaldo is obviously an important player for Al-Nassr as they’ve cancelled friendly games cause of him. They know supporters would want to see Ronaldo play.

Both players have left the major spotlight but It’s quite obvious a lot of football fans would like to see both players play against each other again. Thinking along these lines, it’s apparent on why they would delay the friendly match between both teams.

I don’t know what world In which a courier earns more than a administrator in a company or even a middle level manager in an organization but it’s certainly not the world you and I presently live in.
Couriers may work for longer hours or all day delivering packages and may get bonuses depending on the number of successful deliveries made. The combination of wages, bonuses and tips earned wouldn’t sum up to half of what an administrator in an organization would make for working same hours.

Just about anyone who could drive okay could get a job as a courier but not everyone could successfully manage and run smaller units or the whole of an organization.

We’re all anonymous on here and you likely  do not know anyone on here. Why should you be scared and then hesitant to discuss and contribute your thoughts and opinions on any thread?
If you’re sure of the information you’re about to share to be correct and factual, then you should be courageous even to share them with anyone. And I’m sure no one would berate you or anything. Instead we’re more likely to add more information to what you’ve already put out.

This thread voices out what you and a lot of other newbies probably feel and It’s not nonsense in my opinion. As long as you’re doing the right thing and more importantly, being yourself; you should learn to care less about what other people would think of you. Not everyone would think nicely of you no matter how nice you are. We’re human and our thought process varies.

People lives and opportunities gotten in life varies. Some people are just more lucky than others and it’s just the way life is. There are people who have won considerably more than others, there’s no doubt about that and I agree. But I don’t think an individual could be so lucky and go on to have more wins than losses through out his entire gambling history.
No matter how lucky you a gambler is, I don’t think it could happen and I haven’t really heard anyone who actively gambles having more wins than losses. If someone like that happens to exist, that’s a lucky person for sure.

I disagree. Gambling, being more of a recreational activity should be done when you’re free, less busy and relaxed. The average employee in the workplace is certainly not free and not even close to being relaxed while at work. My opinion; work hours should be left for work related stuff.
Trying to do anything else aside your tasks could be distracting and one could end up messing up on the tasks that had been assigned to that employee.

People generally play in hopes of winning some money. So if one doesn’t play for the money, why gamble? The thrill of giving away your money to the casino wouldn’t feel so good.

I would disagree with your opinion. Do you personally think an individual who’s an addict can be successful at whatever he/she does? I don’t think so. In my opinion, Success and addiction are far apart and don’t have anything in common. A gambler who’s addicted to gambling could almost never be successful in the activity as being addicted to gambling, you’ll find such individuals always at the casinos playing away whatever money is in their possession.

A gambler that wins majority of bets placed due to methods used or painstakingly doing some good research to have a somewhat accurate prediction. I wouldn’t say such individuals are addicts.
An addict would rarely be successful in anything especially gambling.

Stealing is never right. How it’s taken and what you need the money for that led to you stealing is totally irrelevant. Of course any responsible mother would frown at her ward stealing and would try to kill that habit in her child.
Your question on if the mother would have remained angry if the kid had won a huge amount with the money he stole. A responsible parent should not fail to reprimand their kid even if that child had won a life changing amount with money that was stolen.
There is no justifying the act of stealing and if I were the parent, my kid would be well aware of my displeasure and is sure to learn a lesson that stealing someone else’s property is never acceptable.
