Cameroon lost Mbappe, in my humble opinion.  Specially since he became World famous because his role in the last world cup, facing Messi in Qatar.

I knew there was corruption within the football world, but I never imagined it could be as widespread to even affect selections and teams on adquiring talented players. I thought corruption was mostly present in high positions... Very unfortunate for developing countries where talented people live, like Brazil, Argentina, Cameroon, among others.

In the case of Brazil or Argentina which are also regarded as third world countries, theirs is still fair if they do such obnoxious stuff because they still perform better during world tournament. Maybe in there own case, most of the players are gifted and it doesn't affect them as such. Or maybe they have had issues of selection during tournament that they didn't perform to expectation.

That is how you lose on a great player like Mbappe when you are a corrupted country like Cameroon and many other African countries lose such star players exactly because of the same reason.Also in many other third countries in the world the same is happening and I think these type of interviews should have much wider visibility so those people who asked for money would be seeing how big these players become and stop doing it.I know that it is much more difficult to achieve because we are talking about poor countries but these poor countries should start to think bigger for themselves.It would be nice to see such a player playing for Cameroon,not that I don't like seeing him play with France.

Yeah this type of stories happen in third world countries and they lose valuable players who want to give all to the club or national team. The thread is bad. When you place money first in whatever you want to do then the best will elude you. This is appalling and the reason that third world countries struggle in football especially countries from Africa.

Those at the tops only care about their own immediate financial benefit and not care where the player gets to tomorrow with the myopic thinking that they have benefited from the player. I will still blame the government when it comes to corruption.

Hey guys, reading little story on Kylian Mbappe who on Thursday visited Cameroon on a charity with the deaf and other familiarization visit to his father's home town. He spoke with Joseph Dion Ngute, the Cameroon's Prime Minister, he was honoured visiting and I believe this is just like the humanitarian work some influential people do

But one striking revelation was that he would have been a cameroonian player if they weren't asking his father to pay them money before allowing him to play while he still trying to fix his career and French allowed him without payment.

Quote
"At first, I wanted my son to play for Cameroon, but someone at the Cameroonian Football Federation charged me money that I didn't have to make him play," he explained. " The French charged nothing."

I have also heard of some local stories about how some coaches require money from new footballers before they allow them on trier both in their clubs and national teams. Is this happening globally for new players who are still seeking to find a spot in clubs?

Do you think Cameroun miss Mbappe or it is Mbappe that missed Cameroun ?

It’s very hard to be on profit in gambling while playing continuosly due to house edge. Most of the successful is focus on the quality of their bets for a better accuracy than placing multiple bets with less analysis.

I think house edge is not just the only reason that an addict or consistent bet player would fail. Yes casinos are designed in the way that you will lose more than you will profit, therefore a consistent player is already design to fail more times except with the exception to win jackpot when it is his luck to win. So naturally, house edge is concluded already on that reason for losing but because addict and consistent player does that with sole aim to chase back the loses, so they will lose more but successful player is more relaxed to play less times and even when in loss, he doesn't allow the emotion to have a better part of him.
2545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: July 09, 2023, 12:40:44 PM

Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?

No I won't classify successful gambler as an addict and these are the reasons. First, if you are called a gambler addict it could mean you are not successful in gambling because if you understand the word addict or the way that the society identify it, it is not what is attached with someone positive and the society always have good names for what is good, people associate with success and not failure. What I think about addict is failure even if you will see some addict to be successful but rare.

Another valid point is for someone to be successful, they would have been operating professionally and keeping to the rules of gambling like understanding that if it is gambling then luck is involved, play with limits and not play just as your fingers push you to and all of these are part of the characteristics of an addict. In essence, they are different. Successful gamblers are not always addicts because they could be playing with limits and guiding their emotions.

Even with low wallet balance if we were able to win good then automatically the mindset will change from broken state to healthy state.

A low wallet balance can be pragmatically used and utilized to become a rich balance if we play with more precision and focus on the target but all still depends on our luck on the time because despite the research we conduct sometimes it doesn't favour, luck come like the wave of the wind. However, I have seen series of low balance accounts being built into rich account but the challenge is lack of management because they will lose the winning pattern and keep playing heavy until they go back low. Discipline is important in gambling.

.
The world financial system is like one big coin.
The big guys the whales the financial players have sold by now most of their assets covid 19 times they sold 75% of their assets now they wait for another pmp from the whales to sell the rest of the 25% of their asssets

In an economy, there is always a profit taking and it looks like recession in the eyes of some and others smile just like the whales took their profit after the COVID-19 and bitcoin went up to $64k. I like your analysis of one big coin.


and rest of the world financial field will be under the binance control.


The agenda for a unified exchange may not work because other countries will follow the regulation restrictions that US has adopted for binance and every jurisdiction will introduce what works for them including tax. So it will not be business as usual.

I was lucky to win a very big amount in a soccer match but the day I lost all my savings I almost got a heart because the pains refused to go away.

You win some you lose some is how the gambling system is. I'm sure you have learnt your lesson now from your heart pain that you don't have to gamble all you have in the hope of winning big. Winning is not a guarantee until you see the reality of it. It is illusive until you have seen your ticket in green. Throwing all inside a bet is not advisable as you have seen and I hope you have moved passed that now with your betting.

Greed is what I guess causes lottery winners to get broke after hitting the jackpot. Addiction is a major problem as it plays a major role in a gamblers spending rate. Sometimes these lottery winners might have good plans for their wins when it comes but after hitting the jackpot,they become excited and thinks that they will be lucky again to win big and wouldn't have plans towards investing the money. Instead they will go back and keep on playing till the money gets dried up due to lack of self control.

Mismanagement of funds also contribute to what you are saying. I don't know if this lifestyle is known with all gamblers or just the chronic addicts and that kind of attitude of not holding tight to winning money is why gamblers have been said not to be taken as serious people. Not planning with the rewards from the proceed of the bet means planning to fail and that explains why they say if you don't suffer to make money then you won't value the money but I take exception to that because I feel some gamblers are becoming wiser.
2550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who is to be blamed, the gambler or the betting agent on: July 08, 2023, 05:31:55 PM

But the casino certainly won't allow someone who doesn't have enough money to gamble because the casino knows that that person has a big chance of losing compared to winning. So the casino might be able to ask for evidence from the gambler stating that the gambler really has the money, and then the casino will allow him to play gambling. And if you don't have one, the casino won't allow you to gamble, let alone place big bets. But if the casino has a feature of providing loans to gamblers, the casino must also make sure that the guarantee from the gambler is commensurate with the money to be borrowed. And if the gambler cannot repay the loan, the casino can take over the collateral.

They actually do have a strong rule on the workers not to allow bettors to bet on credit but what happens sometimes is that because a particular bettor is a friend or became close to the game house, one of the workers may fall soft for the bettor especially opposite sex. You know how the opposite attracts, and after sometime, the credit betting can start happening with repayment from time to time but it never last longer before such arrangement is unearthed and when this is noticed the worker will face losing the job or pay the debt .

People winning big and telling the stories but they don't tell you losses. Would say it is about wanting to do what others are doing. Youthful exuberance they call it right? Yeah wanted to explore, so from watching football and being a novice all around everything concerning gambling until a try to what they were doing by giving them money to stake for me from same bet slip they had analysed. It continued for some time until I started trying out myself. Of course experience comes with years  Grin

As a judge what will you do ?



I think the reasonable thing to do is to allow her go after the arrest because she has already served the jail term for the murder and won't have to be punished for it again. .


will you address the case as a fresh murder or will you consider it as a crime she already served the term?  

She won't be sentenced for a particular crime twice, so I think that settles it but if she is made to go to jail again on it, that is injustice to her. She was erroneously convicted when she had not committed the crime and now that she committed it, she didn't cause the first conviction, probably the prosecution and judges were hasty to do due diligence on the case. So she should be free.

If you are using an exchange to save your coins,

Friend , the last time I checked the post you are responding to I didn't mention exchange or was I making reference to exchange wallet. You are imputing the above because I didn't mention exchange and that response was misinterpreted if you add what was not on the post.
2554  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you prefer to own a luxury watch or invest in bitcoin or other assets? on: July 08, 2023, 02:57:06 PM

it's worth noting that their appeal may diminish over time.

Watch is watch and bitcoin is bitcoin. Watches, no matter how expensive they are they are still for that purpose that they are made for. Watch is not an investment but for luxury or comfort just like by greater extent, like buying car. Bitcoin is an investment asset that can appreciate over the years.

The real reason that I won't prefer watch over bitcoin is that watch has no additional value in the future but only serve the utility it was made for but bitcoin is $30,219 as I'm posting and tomorrow you could see it in $31k and it keeps rising just like expected with assets.

If you withdraw some and leave some there is tendency that you might have a break for sometime either because you don't want to stress yourself to login into your personal account, activate your password, get email codes or phone codes and all other necessary requirements to access your wallet funds before transferring to your casino wallet.
You do not need to login with 2FA or any code if you are talking about wallet. It is very easy to transfer money from your wallet to a gambling site account. The confirmation time will even be faster if you use altcoins.

If you use an exchange and it has been long that you login, those kind of codes can be asked. But if active on the exchange, you may only be required for authentication code. Some people even have some addresses that they have whitelisted on an exchange which needs no authentication or password.


You made a wrong analysis of the intention of the post. I only made an analysis of the way a gambler can save money by withdrawing some of his money out of the casino wallet and to his own personal wallet because leaving it there and playing from it is tempting to continue playing after losing. So if he has withdrawn some away, he may decide not to refund after losing the money he left in his wallet. I understand whotnot about 2FA . Some times we could procrastinate towards getting to refund an account so that is the purpose. Such break between losing money in casino wallet and refunding can make a bettor take some break thereby saving that money.
2556  Economy / Gambling / Re: Whats happening with Betnomi? on: July 08, 2023, 12:06:50 PM
Sorsis got in touch. He says that he will soon process my payment and, as far as I understood from the conversation, the site will also be active soon.

Quote
I am sorry for disappearing.
There was a major situation outside of my control and i had to leave but i am partially available now and will sort out your payment soon. You can be sure of that

Hopefully this is a good news and those waiting on queue for withdrawal could have some renewed hope to wait for eventual coming back of betnomi. Having a maintenance notice safe some pains and that is what should have been done from the beginning.

Meanwhile, there should be room for someone to assist even when the key man leaves for other important stuffs. Example there could be life threatening situations and a key man leaves to take care of the health, that doesn't mean that the casino has to go down this is why when employing there is need to employ people that can also do multiple jobs so that when a staff is not able to carry out a function because health issues or whotnot, someone can efficiently stand in until they are back.
2557  Economy / Gambling / Re: Dice Crypto Calculator on: July 08, 2023, 11:18:07 AM

In gambling, the best formula is to gamble what you can afford to lose until you hit it big later, so gamble safely until then.

I agree with you because at the end of it all you see see that whatever you have calculated with the calculator is between you and your luck, so to be happy after you have betted is to be reasonable with your bet. I know known some people when they get an external device like apps who gives them guarantee to win big they increase their bet but later regretting it. I think the calculator is another educational revelation in the world of dice gambling.

Two candidates visited my office two days ago to submit their applications for the position of a health assistant.

I hope this is not about racist or any other colouration because health jobs don't really require physical attributes or gender nor sex except their are these specifics for the job otherwise I don't see a reason that the lady should be disqualified for such reasons of physical attributes or because she is a lady. She was not even given a chance of interview. If these were the criterias then the health company seeking to employ those workers should have indicated that in their adverts so that only the male physically endowed will apply.
2559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Healthy mindset to save earnings from gambling on: July 08, 2023, 08:52:49 AM
There is a way that you could save money from gambling earning that it will be easy and you can control your emotions on it if you make it mandatory and a decision. That method is to withdraw your winning from the casino account out to another account that you own or your wallet. I'm sure this is a good strategy because if you leave the whole of the winnings there and you keep seeing it anytime you login, your inching fingers will keep tempting to keep playing after you have lost some so long you still have balance there. The way this works is if you withdraw some, you can see the remaining balance as the only money you have to bet and you will be prudent with it. Being prudent with it means you will play carefully, reasonably with reasonable amount that you can bear the lose just like you are gambling afresh in the beginning.

If you withdraw some and leave some there is tendency that you might have a break for sometime either because you don't want to stress yourself to login into your personal account, activate your password, get email codes or phone codes and all other necessary requirements to access your wallet funds before transferring to your casino wallet. In fact, all the necessary delays could make you change your mind and have a break for sometime until your zeal, addiction etc have cooled down and by then you would have saved that part of winning that you sent out from your casino wallet.
2560  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: July 08, 2023, 06:58:08 AM

A person who has gambled all his life and has not seen a single win has the conviction that at some point he will win and will always be able to have what he has won, and the people who are and believe in that often achieve it, because as they say for there: "He who perseveres wins"

This is often the attitude of someone who has become an addict and those who see gambling as a source of income. Otherwise when you understand gambling as a game channelled by luck and you played for a very long time without luck on your side then reasonably you should quit believing it is not your luck but when you keep believing you will win , well you should have the financial capacity to wait more longer incase the rain will fall on your planted crops but that usually the way people get addicted, because winning to the extent of recovering your losses will be difficult as you keep playing and losing contributing to the initial lose and jackpot may be illusive.
