I always hear stories of friends who always lose playing online gambling. I don't know what his purpose to tell his story to me. even it's clear, his story makes him look stupid.
Is he playing for fun or his main desire is to profit? It is stupid if he's complaining yet he can't refrain himself. Majority of us often lose in gambling but despite this we still keep on playing since we have our own reason for doing so. Sometimes it's about entertainment and satisfaction that's why we gamble. Besides that, in another place, Many young people around to me still play slot gambling even don't have a job and always lose. I wonder where they get the money for deposits? and why they repeat that?
A gambler who is eager to play can do anything just to sustain his habit. Thus, regardless of where they get their money, what motivates them is gambling. So they can play to earn even there's no assurance at all. if I always lose in the game, I will change the type of game, example If I always lose on a slot, I will change the type of game like sports betting until my capital is back and try the luck again to the slot.
Well, you have a point but switching games doesn't guarantee anything. You can become lucky but it's still uncertain. Therefore, much better to play the games that you can enjoy the most. Hence even you're not lucky to win, at least you are entertained. |

You arent that forced to do something in the first place on which on the time that you do make out some bets then it is really that according into your own decision on which you dont really have the rights on pointing out fingers into someone just because they had influenced you on what are the bets that you are taking. It is really just that according into your own choice and no one had forced you to bet on on which it is really just that too unfair for you to blame out someone just because you had lost that particular bet. You are really just that making yourself that laughable on which we do know that there's no other
that should be blamed but rather yourself on why you do commit out those loses. Its your money and its your right on what you should gonna do. It is really just that there are people who are really that having this kind of behavior which it isnt actually good.
Exactly. It's your own will to use your money in gambling. Therefore regardless of someone influence you or promise a sure profit, it doesn't change the fact that it's your decision on why you end up playing. Blaming someone because of your own mistake is like washing hands as if you're innocent and don't know what you are doing. For others, doing so might help them to move on and accept the reality but, still, it's not right to held someone accountable for your own mistake. So if you gamble, be matured enough to face the consequences of your own action. |

Many of us have learn a couple of lessons from other people comment and even apply some suggestions that have helped us to adjust our overall gambling experience till this very moment, so being lazy will only increase one chances to slide into troubles instead of avoiding them by following a set rules and regulations.
Those who take time to learn first to become aware of what to expect in gambling can prevent themselves becoming out of control since they know the risk of using their money in gambling. The reason why it's important that you know what you are getting into, and not diving into gambling just because you heard someone won a decent amount through playing a specific game. If you became attracted to play because of this (not knowing the risk) then chances are you'll have a high expectation that same fate will fall into you too. Thus don't rush to play and know your limit to not spend the amount that you can't live without. This way you can gamble while not having problem about addiction since you have self-discipline. |

Without:
Charity, begging, illegal, stocks, trading.
Find a job. That's the usual way to gain money and probably majority of us had one to earn a stable income. If you don't like the idea of working a certain hours per day with a boss around then building a business is another option. However, this requires a decent capital and plan to succeed because not all who venture into business had a good result. On the other side, investing in real estate then open it for lease is also a good way to have a passive income. So find a decent job, build a business or invest in real estate. These are some of the ways that you can do in order to gain money. |

During 2019 to 2020, only a handful of people in the forum would post confidently that their expectations for Bitcoin would be to reach six digits. Many of the other users, although maybe they believed or hoped that it could happen, would never let everyone know what they were thinking probably because they didn't want to sound and look stupid.
Let's go further, in mid-2017 the price was around $1000-1500 and who would have thought the bitcoin would pass 20K in the next few months, so that is how an investment works and that is why few people become rich and most of others end up living an average life. Now we have an opportunity to become one among the few with bitcoin and still the choice is ours. The problem is, many investors are still hesitant to invest until they see the price already soaring high. That's their turning point to engage themselves and join the ride even it's already risky since we know it can go downward unexpectedly. Thus if you are a type of investor waiting for recovery before buying, it's not a mistake since that's your strategy BUT it's not wise because the ideal time to buy is during dip. Bear season that passed is long enough to accumulate, fill our bags and wait. If you didn't buy during those times because you are afraid to lose your capital or don't have strong belief about the future, then expect that you are still one of those who missed again the opportunity to be a huge gainer in the future. So don't wait for the price to rise before buying. |

Just recently, I was tempted to check my first ever Bitcoin wallet to see what I have done in the past. I was so depressed seeing the volume of Bitcoin that have passed through my wallet without me saving a reasonable portion of it.
I have the feeling that many forum users too have similar experience; do kindly share just maybe I can feel a little better knowing that I'm not a lone.
Pretty sure I also have a significant amount of Bitcoin that passed through my wallet as i'm not a fan of holding before, when I was just starting. Everytime I buy, it doesn't take too long for me to sell my Bitcoin. It's just come and go (as I never expected this is something that I will regret later on) until I learned the importance of holding. Well, as others have said already, even many of us have similar experience, it's not yet late to buy Bitcoin and hold. There's no such thing as too late if your plan is to hold for long period. Thus, timing when to buy and be firm to hold because it is proven as an effective strategy to profit in Bitcoin. But one should have a long patience. |

Kapag na ban na totally ng Gobyerno and pag access natin sa Binance, mahirap na sumalungat at baka magsisi pa tayo sa huli dahil funds at security natin nakataya. Pero sana naman magkaron pa ng pag-asa at maayos ng Binance kung anuman ang dapat nilang i comply dito satin. Kahit na maraming alternative, iba pa rin talaga yung nakasanayan natin at subok na. Hindi na kasi friendly gamitin ang coins masyadong mahigpit. Magulat ka na lang naka freeze na account mo. |

For those of us that are into altcoin signature campaign and have accumulate some in your wallet, what do you do with it since some of them has low value at the moment if you check their current price?
Do you keep holding it hoping that the price will finally come up since it seems you can't actually trade it with it current value.
Will the altcoin become valueless after the campaign is over or could still gain value after some years.
If the price is very low at the moment then you have no choice but to hold and hope the value will increase in the future. However, keep in mind that this depends on the project because even you keep holding (since selling won't give you profit) there's no assurance the price will bounce back. Unfortunately this is the risk of being paid in alts because chances are the coin has low value or worst turn as a dead project. |

👉Fear of leaving your comfort zone
Many of us are afraid to try new things and don't want to leave our comfort zone because of worries. I have been there and honestly, I can say nothing will happen if you just stay on what you used to and won't explore for new opportunities. It's normal to have worries but if you won't take risk then you can't gain anything. You can add your point so that others can learn
Well, I think too much spending for wants instead of what is only necessary can also cause financial failure. Because if you can't manage your finances properly (not thinking wisely) spending here and there just because you have money on hand is also a factor to fail. We need to be wise and think of what is the best thing to do currently that can be beneficial for the future. That even the time comes we're already incapable to work, we still have sources to earn money. |

This now triggered me to come ask here whether you cares about what people says or sees you as when gambling, I know there are people who don't know you from time or who doesn't believe that you are a gambler and if it happens that you came across such people and their reaction towards you goes other way round would you care about it or you just totally ignore them?
It depends on who said it. Because I appreciate and understand the opinions of people who truly knows me (family and close friends) since they are just concern and it's understandable (even the words are not so nice to hear). However, if you're just someone who judge me based on what you see (and we're not even close) I just ignore it. I'm just playing in moderation and I know better myself more than anyone else. So regardless of what they say I just ignore them. Because if you let yourself be affected it will only give you stress. Thus, as long as you're not doing anything wrong then you don't owe them an explanation. |

Perhaps deep down in our conscience, somewhere that we don't like to listen to, it still tells us the truth that the reason why we're going to gamble is to hopefully win money, not really to have fun.
Well, it's normal to gamble with such hope. However if that's your main goal on why you're playing, then you can't really enjoy the games because you're pressured to win since that's your goal and having losses are not fine. But if your reason to play is to kill time and to be entertained regardless of the outcome, it just shows that you are just having fun, therefore it depends on what you desire. I know that it's said that you should gamble the amount that you can afford to loose, but will you call it a true fun when you know that there's a higher probability of losing your bet?
This is the reason why you need to condition yourself before deciding to use your money in gambling. If you can't bear the thought of facing losses when you gamble then gambling is not meant for you just to have fun. |

Why would you want to avoid being identified, if you gamble legally and if you are not a criminal? Let's discuss the reasons why KYC are not advantageous for the gamblers and casinos?
Simple reason is because I want to play anonymously. It's all about privacy that the platform is not holding any of my private information because it can leak anytime if there's a data breach. The security of data is often a concern. That's why if possible, I want to play without undergoing identity verification. However, we know nowadays, many casinos are implementing this for the reasons you have stated (to prevent fraud, age verification etc.) and it's a reality that we need to accept if we want to gamble in legitimate casinos since they're just doing it for legal compliance. At first you wanted to play anonymously, cared about privacy, was worried about data leak, said that you prefer gambling without passing identity verification. But now it looks like you are first in the line to upload your documents to a casino that has good reputation; reputation that was built on gambling experience, not on privacy experience. See the bolded part. What i'm saying is " if possible". Who don't want to play anonymously if possible? But as I have said, if you're playing in a centralized casinos expect this to be asked sooner or later. KYC thing is already expected and sometimes inevitable. So to be clear, I will only do this in reputable casinos where I am playing currently and not just in any casinos that are not trustworthy. Besides, the thread topic where you quoted my reply is an answer for a question about the specific reason of the gamblers on why they're hesitant to submit their personal information. It doesn't mean i'm not willing, it's just my own reasoning. I still stand to what I said there. |

We here discuss how bad or good asking for KYC is, how fair or not to do it when we withdraw, will it help to fight money laundry or not, but if you would be asked to pass it, will you do it? Will the amount on balance influence on your decision? What is the amount that will make you step over principles and start uploading your document to casino?
I will mate if I am to answer , KYC for me is nothing if dealing with the sites trusted by me for long time , because once i decide to gamble in a site for sure i gave them my trust so providing KYC will not be be an issue at all cost but this is just me I don't know with others. Same thoughts. I only play in casino that has a good reputation. Therefore if I was asked for KYC I will do it especially if there's a decent amount involved. Moreover, once you play in a centralized casinos, KYC is already expected to be ask to their customers (sooner or later). One of the reason why we need to read the ToS before playing on the specific casino. So if we don't agree on their rules, we can look for other site where we can play without worries. |

Bitcoin $BTC was dead at $15,500 now see🔥
Those who say Bitcoin is dead at its lowest price last year probably don't know the real meaning of the word dead. Because once the coin is dead, it can't recover back and we know that's not the case for Bitcoin. If you are a real investor and did conduct a research before investing, then you won't say such thing. Now they are saying $LUNC $LUNA is__
Just move on. There are so many coins that are worth your money and attention. Why hoping for Luna to come back? Even it does, it's not the type that can be trusted again since many investors lose their money after what happened. |

As we enter the 2024, many people are making plans on how to achieve financial success and personally I have decided that trading will be one of my area of focus. I'm gathering information on how to go about it. Your opinion will be highly appreciated.
Take time to learn by gaining knowledge and experience. There's a possibility to succeed in trading if you know what you're doing and not in rush to profit. Many traders failed because of their greed and unable to wait by committing a wrong decision. Keep in mind that trading is not easy. Thus always use the money that you can live without hence even you lose (it's inevitable sometimes) it is not hard to move on since you already prepared yourself for such situation. In addition, don't rely too much in trading, it's still best to have other source of income. |

It's New Year here in our country and I happened to bump into an old friend who narrated a story about how he almost suffered a heart attack after he won a big amount of money in a casino, this was several months ago, he's lucky that his son was around at that time so he got the right treatment at the right time.
Winning a huge amount is really shocking especially if you less expect it. He is still fortunate to have his son around and his condition is treated immediately. My question is :
Do you know the status of your health while gambling and what do you do if you happen to suffer a mild or hard stroke?
This is why I make it a point to open my messenger and have my loved one that I can contact in case, whenever I'm playing alone.
Well, it's really a must that we're aware of our health condition before playing. Because regardless of you win or lose, both can give a different emotions that might affect us negatively. Just recently, I had a full medical check up so i'm aware that I have no hypertension or heart problem. |

Well, I don't have plan to stop my gambling activity because i'm not a compulsive gambler. So my new year's resolution will be the same just like the past years. That is to only play in moderation and avoid temptations that can trigger me to be out of control. Because there are times that you'll be tempt to exceeds on your set limit for a certain reason. Moreover, I want to lessen my spent time in gambling since I was diagnose with an eye problem recently (though it was improving now).
Happy New Year everyone may this year bring full of blessings to all of us.

Just want to say thank you to Roobet management and @HHampuz for constantly bringing the artwork contest to the BitcoinTalk community.

Also a Happy New Year to everyone!
Congrats. Your artworks are really good. No wonder why they managed to have a slot for the specific categories.

Actually kahit hindi call center agent, yung mga office based work ay nawawalan na ng work life balance kaya may pinang huhugutan talaga, tipong kahit break mo during work from home status ay nagagamit na sa work dahil may hinahabol na kota. Madalas nakakaligtaan pa nga kumain at ang masaklap ay walang vitamins na tinetake. hirap din ng ganito pero soon sana makahanap na ng other work na malayo sa ganitong klase ng trabaho kasi mahirap talaga.
Kwento mo yata to kabayan? ramdam na ramdam ang Hugot sau hehehe. Kahit ano pa ang circumstances eh dapat pa din nating gawin ang nararapat para sa ating kalusugan , dahil tayo naman ang mag susuffer nito . naranasan ko ding maging sobrang busy pero never ko inalis ang vitamins and exercise , minsan nga habang may kausap ako sa phone eh nag eexercise pa dina ko eh. Mahirap yung malaki nga sahod mo pero kalusugan naman ang napapabayaan. Ang ending baka sa gamot lang din mapunta yung perang pinagsikapan mong kitain at ipunin. Kaya dapat talaga balanse pero kung hindi maiwasan na talagang yung nature ng trabaho eh nakakaapekto sa kalusugan, dapat gumawa pa rin ng paraan para maalagaan ang sarili. Health is wealth, sabi nga ng iba di bale ng walang pera basta walang sakit. Naging aral na sakin na makita yung kapatid kong subsob sa negosyo, maginhawa buhay pero pinabayaan ang sarili, ang nangyari sa gamutan lang din napunta ang kanyang ipon. So aral na sakin yun dahil ayokong pati sakin mangyari na hindi prepared sa ganung pagkakataon. Malaking tulong kung may health insurance. |
