2541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: July 24, 2017, 09:20:46 AM
to me i think gambling is too much addicted because it is giving hope to people to make money. when people become disappointed from finding job,they come to casino for seeking the shorted way of earning, money, in fact gambling do not require any  proper knowledge or experience or skill therefore people come to casino to try their luck, when they make some money their their confidence become increase and so they continue gambling and becoe  addicted to it.

Well it is giving us hope and stress to get money because it is very stressful to gamble and hope that we can get money. We cant get money but we can get fun from gambling that is why I play for fun only to avoid stress from trying to get money. Sometimes I think that I was relieved that I get out of the way I used to think because I thought that I could make money from gambling as well
If you think about it, it's okay as long as you win right? No matter what you do it would be awesome if you win because it benefits us. Whatever you are trying to do, you would always be stressed when there is money involved.
That's is true, every time the game starts, stressed will always there because we never know if we gonna win back our money or double it. Every time the game plays we don't know what will be the result of it, so thnking of the result of the game will also makes us stress, especially if that money that we used is for our personal use and not to gamble. Addicted in gambling is hard to quit, because the game is really enjoyable and we cannot deny it. But we must also know how to control.

Before when I am employed, the first day of the week which is Monday is very tiring for me. Because I am on weekends and I feel that my weekend is not enough. 😁
2544  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: July 24, 2017, 01:47:21 AM
Leave the game when you think you have enough profit. Never ever tell yourself that you can still gamble and win more because you will only lose in the end. People tend to do that and end up losing everything.
Enough profits ? If I would have got chances to have some profits, probably I will stop gambling right after those profits. Unfortunately I never get chances to see any profits and for the process of recovering my earlier losses, I keep on gambling and leaving the gambling only when I am running short of bankroll. You are just talking of positive side of gambling but I am still struggling with negative earning.

When gambling is giving you some satisfaction in terms of at least some little profits, you will be thinking to stop at right times. But when you are struggling and you are not at all finding any justification why you come to gamble then most probably you will never stop.

What are you trying to say then? Of course when you gamble, you don't really expect you'd profit that much. I don't know how you gamble but when I was into gambling, I set or I have a target amount on when to stop. And it is expected you'd have lots of losses than winnings on gambling, its pure luck for those who always win when they gamble too. Probably what he/she meant about enough profit is the target amount he/she set she gained from playing.
We only need to set the amount that we can afford to lose, other than that save it ang stop if you already use what you set an amount for gambling, do not waste another bitcoin, minute and effort for you to lose again. It is also important to value our bitcoin because it can also increase when you save some of it.

Everyday we gambling with limited amount that we just set unfortunately it won't affect to us from losing many people still get negative profit in their statistic and some people get profit from it, it's only affect to how much amount we loss. It's better to not try gamble at all even when you already into gamble don't play it so often it would make your wallet dry.
Some people doesn't think of that. They continue playing  even if they already losing huge amount. They still gamble often because that is their nature, people who are addicted are hard to leave the game. They need some advice of an expect for them to understand, and I guess they already need psychiatrist.

Yeah, I've read that fidgeting can help allow you to better focus on whatever you are trying to focus on. The spinner toys are a cool little toy that you can fidget with that is supposed to help you better focus.
That's true. My younger brother has ADHD and when we gave him a fidget spinner, it has greatly helped him to be more focus on doing a single thing compared to what he does before that after just how many minutes of doing this, he will jump onto another.
My son has an ADHD, but I think it didn't work for him. Fidget spinner is not helping him to focus, maybe that is not his level. I mean maybe he is worse than your brother, maybe your brother has only have mild ADHD.
2546  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: July 23, 2017, 02:30:11 PM
I've just thought about this for a moment but, if we want bitcoin to get more popularity, attention or acceptance would it be nice to make some advertisement about it on T.V.? I don't know if in other countries they advertise bitcoin but in my country, I haven't seen one. How do you think advertising bitcoin will affect the people? Any thoughts?
I guess depend in our country, maybe if all people are open minded then I guess it is also good. But some other people can use this in a bad way. Maybe for the meantime I think bitcoin is good as for now without advertisement. But this is also a good idea so that bitcoin users will increase too.

There is always love in a mothers heart for his children, thatīs the true love that are always in the bibble, itīs the best example that i can express of true love.
This is true, because I am now a mother with 1 boy and his 5yrs old now. I know the feeling if your own child hurt by anyone. The love of a mother is the greatest love that we can have in the world.

2549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: July 22, 2017, 05:24:36 AM
theres no smart way in playing. All we need to do to is stop losing the funds is playing on what you can afford to lose. Dont play with all your money remember we cant get rich instant in gambling.
Probably stopping at your affordable limit is the smart way of gambling. Keeping your gambling problems within your control must be the smart way of gambling hence I am never ready to agree there is no smart way of gambling.
There could be multiple smart way for gambling but we are not capable of finding them and making utilising those methods to safeguard while gambling.

Gambling by accepting the fact that gambling will not make instant rich is also a way of smart gambling. When you are not gambling for making money, I believe you will become a smart gambler.
The bottom line is we should be gambling for fun only, don't fantasize about becoming rich because although it could happen but chances of getting it is very low, therefore we need to be realistic all the time so we will not gonna regret our wrong decision in the end. Our frustration to make instant money lead us to a wrong decision making, we should not do that and think of a good way even if it will take a little time but you can ensure progress.

If want to be rich, gambling is not the way . Gambling is for fun and for stress reliever not an additional for stress  so better play only if you have extra money and have spare time. And appreciate every winnings even small amount to be happy and not to be greedy ,learn to sets limits and be responsible.
Agree! Don't make gambling as an additional for stress, because sometimes people go to casinos or they gamble online to reduce their stress or just to have fun but the truth, they are just making their stress double especially when they lose often.
2550  Economy / Economics / Re: How long could bitcoin last? on: July 22, 2017, 03:16:22 AM
As of right now, the bitcoin price is expected to keep going up in the next 20 years. But can it last that long? I believe it's possible. But can't it crash at a random time? Like the price going down hard.
yes i believe that bitcoin will last very long. as long that there are still people who are using bitcoin for an extra income, bitcoin is still here or still will exist. i would never accept if bitcoin was gone, i would be madly depressed if that really happens because bitcoin has been part of my life since i first use bitcoin and earn money with bitcoin. and i am still hoping that bitcoin will be a legal currency one day.
I also believe that bitcoin will still increases its value because until now a lot of people are believing in bitcoin and as far as we all know that a lot of countries are using bitcoin so the value of bitcoin is continue to increase and a lot of people are still into bitcoin and hold huge amount of bitcoin. I think there is nothing to worry about, even if bitcoin will decreases its value I still believe that it will make its way to increase again.  Wink
2551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: July 22, 2017, 03:12:42 AM
When it is a card game you really need analysis, and when also betting in sports, this will also help for you to win because when it comes in color games it is pure luck. I think it is really depend of what game do we play when we are in gambling sites or casinos.
Sometimes even in a luck base games you also needed to use analysis theres some better ways in order to win against the house if you have a better strategy that you can use analyzing the possible outcome or yet much better to say predicting things to happen aince you already expecting possible result due to your analyzation.

yeah, you also have a point, but it is also depend on us if we really need to do some analysis because for me when I know that it is just pure luck I know that I don't need to analyze I just need to wait for the result of the game.
if you think strategy really has a big influence on an outcome and believe on that then just do it. but based on people vouches and experiences they feel it has no big difference when you used analysis to gamble in no matter what kind games it is.

and so do i , sportsbetting for example . people think it should be done with analysis but still in the long run it just same.
Because most of the time gambling games are needs luck and I don't said that all gambling games needs analysis, I said that i don't need to analyze if the game is pure luck. There are games needs some strategy to do, but of course luck will always be there for you, for you to win in the game.
yes that is right that there are some kinds of games where we need our luck. and there our experience and analysis do not have any role to play.

Even on those luck based games, your experience will help in reducing your losses. You may not be able to control the outcome of the game, but if you use your experience to manage your bankroll well, then you can reduce your losses. I usually go with some fixed amount to play these luck based game to cut the losses.
That's true, experiences will also reduce your losses, but it is not the same with analysis, because sometime there are newbie who also uses their analysis but they still lose most of the time so Experience and analysis are different. But if you have them both that you have an experience and you know how to analyse then it will also help you to reduce your loses and some of the time win the game. But still, we need luck in gambling games  Grin
2552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: July 22, 2017, 01:13:52 AM
Why is someone get addicted to gambling once he gamble ?

They addicted because of money involve.  Once you enter into the gambling world your always looking for it and you were always trying to win more that cause of addiction. Gambling is fun for those people have more money and even they lost they were trying to seek a game.

well probably yes though not all the time. money has a lot to do woth why people get addicted to gambling as it is because of greed that they can't seem to get enough of it even though it's clear that they may lose everything. people's love of money leads them to a lot of bad decisions and gambling is one of them
So you are saying that money is the main reason why gambling becomes bad in some people? Because I really do agree with that, people needs money because if we don't have eat, we cannot buy our basic needs. Main reasons why we are working is because we want to earn for our family so they can give their needs like foods, clothes, and their education. We need to earn big so we can give what they need and also their wants at the same time. But sometimes gambling can also be a problem why many people are buried in debt.
Those person who do think that gambling can solve their money problems I can say that they are too dumb which they do strongly believe that gambling can give it to them,its possible but really on slim chances since it would really depend on luck, in the field on gambling luck is the biggest factor to win and we should never ever think that we do compromise our money to earn money just to cope up with your priorities.
Most of the time gambling really depend on luck. But many gamblers doesn't realise it, they just wanna play until they don't have any money remaining to their pocket, because the truth is, gambling is more often in losing than winning. And we may not know when we're gonna win. So the outcome, your going to get addicted in gambling while you are waiting that your going to hit the jackpot.

I dont know if this is off-topic,correct me if I am wrong.
I would like to know is there a way here on bitcointalk or other places on net for fundraising-to collect money in a short period of time for sick friend? Any advice would be appriciated
You can post trough social Medias and also try to pursue some of your friends that your other friend has sick. You can also make tickets and do mini concerts to do fund raising. There is a lot of way if you really want to earn money for your friend.
2554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: July 21, 2017, 02:04:00 PM
Basically, Gambling was invented for the entertaining purpose but it has become a profit making segment in recent years. it is really a fun making sector by spending money. if you are lucky enough then you can gain a large amount of money from gambling. but I always prefer gambling for fulfilling a mental desire.
No, gambling is made to make money, but gradually a lot of people are gambling for fun. Nothing is wrong and nothing is better than both. Both are the same. Depending on how each gambler plays it.
A person plays gambling because they wanted to try their luck. Like me, sometimes I play gambling because I wanted to try my luck and I am not playing to earn money, I just really want to try if I have some free time. Sometimes I am lucky but sometimes I am not. But it is always depend on a gambler if why they are really playing gambling, is it for fun or for profit? But I guess if we are expecting profit when we plays gambling, I think it is not good if you are expecting more than to entertainment or fun, because for me it is still better if we play for fun so that even if we lose some of our money we cannot hurt deeply if we lose some of our money.
2555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: July 21, 2017, 01:59:05 PM
Trading is the best and fastest way I've ever gotten to add bitcoin, but in gambling, I always lose my money, but most likely, more gambling players than trading. But I feel that trading is still better. Many are more likely to gamble perhaps because they really love the game that pumps adrenaline
there are lots of people in gambling because a lot of people doesn't know how to invest and how to do it or how to make their bitcoin grow in investing. But I agree that trading is better than gambling because most of the time we are just losing money in gambling.

There are many people in gambling because everyone wants an easy and fast money without doing any hard work and they think that it can be possible only in gambling. But in reality, they will not make money. Instead, they lose more money in gambling, and by the time most of the gamblers realise this it will too late and might have lost lot of money in it. Go to gambling only if you want to enjoy your free time and not to make money from it.
Exactly, that is true that some other people are playing gambling because they really want an easy money and fast money without doing a hard work they wanted to hit the jackpot in one click. Sometimes gamblers are lucky enough to do it, but some gamblers can't make it, because most of the time gambling is really more on luck. We can just do gambling with our spare time and if we want some entertainment or we want to use some of our spare money. Unlike in trading, trading is better for me because in trading we can make money in a long run and trading is for the person who thinks for their future.
2556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: July 21, 2017, 01:47:50 PM
Experience is very important but I think also depend on what game, maybe if it is just based on luck and you just play with a small amount I think you should nothing to worry about your loses. Maybe if you are a real gambler and you wanted to win huge amount so you really need to spent more money/bitcoin then you really need a good experience for you to handle loses.

It may be important at some point but it wont really help you to win. If you actually think like this and could write like this then you are going to try and prove it, the fact that you didnt try it only means that you are not convinced as well that it will really help you to win the game, isnt it right?
It cannot help you to win but at least you've try and experience to play in gambling so that in the next time around you want to play you already know how to do it or to handle it.
Knowing what to do and what should be avoided must be the first step toward profit making. If it is true then we can never claim that experiences does not matter in gambling. You may user your experience in some where for some reasons which may help you to avoid some big losses.

I always value experiences because that is the thing you could never buy anywhere. Your experience is your biggest asset. But applying your experience is up to you. If you are not capable of making use of your experiences then you could never find success anywhere.
That's true, I also value experiences, because experience cannot never steal by anyone, and we are the one who have learned from that experiences. And for me experience in gambling really matters especially when we wanted to play again again atleast we know how it works and for the next time around we can do better than before.
2557  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: July 21, 2017, 12:06:39 PM
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/9-ways-kids-smarter-money-100050132.html

This article doesn't talk about bitcoin but it got me thinking how to get kinds interested in bitcoin within the context of appropriate money management lessons. Think of we could teach kinds about it. The growth, the adoption, the inflation and retraction. The allure of the "internet money".

...what other ideas come to mind?
I don't think it is right for them to teach them so early about bitcoin, maybe you could do first is to teach them to know the value of money first because internet is not really good for children, they will got to search unpleasant things without knowing. So maybe it is better to wait your child until they can earn their own money trough bitcoin. Maybe around 16 years old is the right age for them to teach bitcoin.

Internet exposes you to all the unpleasant things out there. And as a person that have been lurking on the Internet for most of my spare time ever since I was a kid, I can tell you that kids are going to search for these unpleasant things by their own anyway. Bitcoin wouldn't be the reason why would would they look up these things but rather their very own curiosity.

If anything, bitcoin might even make them less exposed to these unpleasant things. They can become so pre-occupied with reading things about bitcoin that they have little to no time for searching things that are irrelevant and/or trivial.
Yeah, we are all expose in many unpleasant things when we are browsing in the internet, so when we are allowing our kids to browse the internet, also make sure that you look up into them. They still need guidance and I think in their young age they will be not interested in bitcoin. So, maybe we just need to wait until they become more resposible.
2558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: July 21, 2017, 10:23:31 AM
Can trading be considered as gambling? No. But both of them are risky to take. For me, it's better to invest your money in any gambling sites than trading because in trading, you don't have any idea or exact date where your money will return to you. You will be clueless as possible but in gambling you just have to analyze and then bet
It is still depend on a person, if the person knows gambling and trading at the same time for sure, that person would choose trading than gambling, we all know that both of them have risk but depends on how you handle it, if you know when to buy and sell your bitcoin and how to really trade or have a good knowledge in trading you will surely get profit/huge profit in a long run, people who trade are people who thinks for future, but people who gambles are people who just want to take more risk, and just want entertainment.
2559  Other / Off-topic / Re: Can you survive off bitcoin alone? on: July 21, 2017, 10:19:05 AM
I do not think it is possible yet, at least for me. Things like healthcare are too expensive and unpredictable. The value of bitcoin is still fluctuating too much fpr me to entirely rely on it as a primary asset or income.
I agree, bitcoin value still unstable,so we still cannot rely in bitcoin right now, I think if this happens immediately some people will not survive, bitcoin needs to transact online and not all the time we have it whenever we go. Especially those who can't afford to. It is hard to rely in bitcoin right now. I don't think its a good idea.
2560  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is really life is beautiful? on: July 21, 2017, 10:03:43 AM
Everyone has different concepts of beauty. But as for me, it is beautiful.
That's true, every person has its own problem, but why did we need to think about our problems? There are a lot of beautiful things out there and think of the positive side always. Do not waste our time thinking of the negative side. Come to think of it, if we have a problem we can make a way to finish that problem. Just be patient and it will be done soon. And always believe in God He is always there for us no matter what happens.  Grin We also need to help ourselves and don't just blame other people why you have a lot of problems right now. Just be positive!
I have the same opinion as you. Despite of having so many problems, always think about the brighter side of everything. And let God handle your problems. He will help you get through everything. Just do your best in everything and let God reward you.
Yes, because I believe that God's time is God's perfect time, maybe what you wish to God is not yet in your way but for sure God will make way just to give what you need in right time. We always have a different problem, every person has a problem but if you can see, some people are still positive even if they have a lot of problems because they always thinks of a brighter side of their life.  Grin Which is very important.
