281  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Playing crypto for many years without holding Bitcoin. on: January 28, 2024, 11:13:27 PM
...

But he doesn't hold any Bitcoin.

The sister graduates without even enrolling.

The experienced crypto guy with years of learning still hasn't graduated.

He always tells himself the familiar phrase, "Wait for the right time..."

And the sister? She doesn't talk much; she just bought 1 BTC. Let those guys' bodies lie where they fall.

Don't be like that young guy...

traders are very different from investors and from your story I see that the brother is an active trader while the sister is an investor or holder, but the biggest mistake of the brother is that he doesn't have bitcoin at all, if he only focuses on shitcoins but doesn't focus on build the stability of its assets by investing in bitcoin
out there there are many cases like those brother, they don't have bitcoin to hold, they only focus on trying to trade with bitcoin, portfolio diversification is very important, never just focus on one crypto asset, invest in more than 3 or 4 more crypto assets OK, and the most important thing is never miss Bitcoin.

Say that to women to get a better replies. Tongue

They will says:
1. Well, that's my life why you need to judge me, mind your own business.
2. Men always like pretty girl, I want to become a pretty girl, that's why my maintenance costs e.g. skincare, nice outfit, nice car are high.
3. You only live once, no one know how long you will life, just enjoy your life.
etc.
This one is good, and it made me laugh cause we know that some or most of the woman would totally answer it that way.
I also get that they want to look good and all spend on beauty products skin care, but if it is too expensive for their income then might as well think about other options.

Actually, you don't need to ridicule women like this, they have the right to be beautiful by buying skin care and branded clothes with their own money, and when they have husbands, their husbands are the ones who have the obligation to beautify their wives (if women are not beautiful then men will cheat)
beauty costs money, in fact every man is obliged to spend money to make their partner happy, because it is a man's responsibility, don't think that when you pay for your partner that you will fall into poverty, don't be too stingy, you as a man will not fall into extreme poverty, increase your income then your partner will be happy with you Grin

Using the money from gambling winnings for important things is wise, there have been many gambling winners who have fallen into poverty because they didn't use the money from their gambling winnings for something that built their wealth when they won gambling, they instead squandered the money so they ended up returning life is difficult when the money runs out.
I once won up to $400 in gambling, I used the money to buy a new smartphone which had higher specifications than my old smartphone, I used the smartphone for my daily activities and it really helped me use the money from my gambling winnings for important things.
284  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 28, 2024, 10:24:57 PM
I might think that Girona strength will really be tested in the next 3 matches because Girona will face Real Sociedad, Real Madrid and Bilbao where this team is the top team which might make it difficult for Girona to continue their winning trend. Of course, the big match is the Real Madrid vs Girona meeting which will take place at Madrid home ground. I am amazed by the strong strength that Girona has this season because they are very well organized in the way they play when facing strong teams. Their defense is strong enough to make it difficult for their opponents to score goals against them.

However, if Girona manages to get through the next 3 matches by winning then I will favor Girona as the team at the forefront to win the trophy this season. Barcelona has withdrawn from the competition for the trophy because it is far behind Girona. For this reason, it would be big history for Laliga if a team other than Barcelona and Real Madrid managed to win the trophy in this season. I think they will focus with their best strength to stay at the top of the standings by successfully defeating their opponents in the next match.

Who would have thought, Girona's journey so far has been very smooth, they were able to win easily against a team that could be said to be quite tough when facing Celtic last time, they performed well, Girona's defense also looked solid.

For Barcelona, this season they don't seem to have a chance to win the title. To be honest, I'm disappointed with Barcelona because they were beaten 5-3 by Villareal. xavi must be able to provide new energy for the barcelona squad if he is not able to, it is likely that his future at barceloan will be short.
285  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: January 28, 2024, 09:57:46 PM
Gambling though is a risky game that the chances of winning and losing is in equilibrium but however in other for one to have a possibility of winning, it requires a steady income.

 Having a steady and regular income is very important as a gambler because it would enable you to scrap out money you should use for gambling, feeding, taking care of yourself and family and other miscellaneous.

A gambler who has a steady and regular income can have the possibility of winning because his gambling habit can not affect his personal obligations as a man even if he's an addict because being addicted to gambling doesn't actually implies that one will eventually stake all his money on bets but rather someone who plays gambling frequently. By having a steady income, he can take care of other life responsibilities without being affected by his gambling activities and moreover, someone who have a stable income can be aiming to win higher amount in his bets and might be lucky of winning one day and use the money to establish an investment.

Your thoughts on this

A gambler who does not have a stable income will only end up committing crimes and there have been many criminal cases committed by gambling addicts because they do not have the capital to play gambling.
For this reason, keep an eye on the people closest to you, and try to advise those who gamble but don't have a job or income because it could be that you or other family members will become victims of crimes committed by unemployed gamblers.
for an unemployed person, it's better if you don't try gambling, your thinking is wrong, gambling is not the best and fastest way to make money.
286  Economy / Economics / Re: The productive capacities of an individual to the society. on: January 28, 2024, 09:29:18 PM
Financial and economical capacity that is potentialed to enhance the society or regional welfares of the masses is primarily weighed by the individual capacities with the proportionalities dependencies of the individuals and the governments awareness, concerns and contributions to   possibly achieved a stable and reliable productive economy prides.

It is true that the regulatory and economy optimization is the responsibility of the government but a fascinating economic infrastructures is more sufficient if individuals is inspired with the credibilities of what to the for the masses (government) and not relentedly relying on what the masses (government) would do for them.
This is also a call security being responsibilities of everyone individuals and not giving it all up to the governments.

Personally, I am inspired with an utmost believe that the ability to accumulate the energy and knowledges to achieve a goal is aspired by when an individual is independently reliable to itself without the reliances of hoping on someone else even though there is a reputable. The essence is that you stays mindedly and focus with the agilities to reach out to your goals and targets.

That's right, your success actually depends on your own abilities, not because of the goodness of your government, it's just that the role of government is also very important for a person's success, access to education and good health can make a person's chances of success greater, besides that, infrastructure will also boost economic growth. which makes a person's chances of success in running a business greater.
The conclusion in my opinion is that a person's ability and also the role of the government have a fairly balanced portion in boosting a person's success and the role of parents is also important.

...

Benzema is not a star in the Saudi Professional League. He is 7th in the goal scorer list and he wants to leave the league if that is true. But I don't think he is still a considered a star like he was one when he left Europe. If a FIFA world player comes to a weak league like the Saudi Professional League, I think that the fans expect more from a striker like him than he is doing for Al-Ittihad.

Why isn't he a star? Benzema is still a world star either way. The fact that he's not performing in the league right now certainly has to do with the fact that he doesn't feel comfortable. He's already said that several times now and is desperate to leave. Perhaps he is also too old to play at the highest level. Real wouldn't have let him go if they were still fully convinced of him.

Benzema is not a striker who has pure talent, at Real Madrid he is supported by the world's best central midfielder while in the Arab League, the team he plays for does not have such resources.
The current issue is that Manchester United continues to be linked with Benzema, and I really agree with him being there, temporarily as a loan player, I support it if that happens.
Benzema will definitely be successful at Manchester United until his retirement, Manchester United has a pretty good midfielder but if he returns to Madrid, I am 100% sure that will never happen.

...

For Klopp, this will be a trademark to his name and the team will never forget him whilst the premier league will also see him as a great icon to have badged two trophies after he has announced to leave the club, that will be the best way to leave your name back in a club.

From the Europa League competition they are currently participating in, they are amongst the team with the higher probability of winning it. In the premier league also, they are still maintaining the top of the table which they look very good and can’t be easily defeated and removed from that position to the second place.

Klopp has an opportunity to add to his trophies before he leaves by end of the season, I don’t doubt his ability, but it won’t be an easy one for him since it has to do with two big competitions in the European football.

Jurgen Klopp left Liverpool at a time when Liverpool was at the top of the standings and I saw that it was a very unexpected decision (even though he has coached Liverpool since the 2015/16 season) I didn't expect him not to wait until this season was over, reportedly Moh Salah will follow in his footsteps leaving Liverpool, this is really a hard blow for liverpool. but the reason for resigning from Liverpool in my opinion is still unclear, I read in the online news about him running out of energy, what he really meant.
There is little chance that Liverpool will be able to get another coach like Klopp, he is a professional saint and is able to give Liverpool the best.

Look, you can be old and rich or young an poor, but being old and poor is bad shit.

A surefire way of doing the wrong kind of things is to spend your money early or try to live a good life quickly without thinking about the future. Or if you have an ok job or income to think that is enough, even if you cannot save.

All young people, understand that time an money are linked. It is not the same to invest early than late, it is not the same  to invest more early that try to invest more later. 100 is worth 100 today, but 800 in 20 years if you play it safe but well. Make no mistake, you will need to start creating your wealth.

I once argued with a young person who said that youth should not take life too seriously, just enjoy it, give yourself self-reward with spree, when he said that I could only mutter to myself "he will definitely fall very poor when he get old".
what you say is all true, that the discipline towards money that we do from a young age will be connected until we are old, so don't let the extravagance we make in youth have a bad impact in old age, there are many examples of people who are old and poor  but when they are young they have a lot of money and potential.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is addiction bad only when it is a problem? on: January 27, 2024, 05:06:48 AM
Addiction to gambling is not a problem for some gamblers because there are some gamblers who are addicted to gambling, but it doesn't affect the other activities of their life. They take care of their families, wear good clothes, smell nice, meet up with appointments but still cannot control the urge to gamble. It doesn't affect their life because they can afford to gamble and manage the loses they make. So, to these people addiction is not a problem. They are addicts, but because they are successful, their addiction is ignored or excused as it is not a problem.
So I am need to know, is addiction only bad when it is a problem?


More or less like that, addiction is a bad thing if your life is damaged, but if the addiction doesn't disrupt your life then it's not a bad thing because you can manage it so it's not something that has a bad impact on your life.
For this reason, it is very important for every active gambling player to continue to evaluate the gambling activities they carry out, because there are many rich people whose lives have been ruined due to their gambling addiction, which is quite worrying.
set your gambling budget - set your gambling time - use money you can afford to lose, this is good advice that every active gambling player must follow.

- snip -

Meanwhile in the right corner the competition is tighter because most of the favorite teams are there Australia, Saudi Arabia, South Korea and Iraq we know these countries always dominate the final matches. On the other hand, Indonesia's chances of going further are very small unfortunately Indonesia has to fight against these favorite countries, Indonesia really needs luck to win. How far do you think Indonesia can go to the next round? will they be kicked out early?

In theory, even a draw will be hard to achieve for Indonesia, but this is football and anything can happen such as the results from group E and F yesterday.
Indonesia must strengthen the defense with hope our national team able to score from counter attack or force the game to a penalty shootout.

This is the first time ever for our national team to enter the round of 16, they better do their best tomorrow.
The whole nation will go crazy if they able to beat Australia tomorrow.

Even though it's not easy, I'm still pessimistic that the Indonesian national team will be able to put a lot of pressure on the Australian national team, but Australia is a tough team, in GROUP B Australia has not been defeated at all while Indonesia has lost 2 times (losing 3-1 to Iraq and 3-1 from Japan)

Tomorrow there is also a match between Tajikistan vs UAE, if we look at the standings table, both teams are equally in 2nd place in each group they are in, I feel the result of this match is a draw.
292  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 25, 2024, 10:51:34 PM
This is not like the French League or Eredivise where the first place team leads the standings by a very long way in points. Munich is only 4 points behind Leverkusen. And both teams still have to face strong opponents in the League. They will also meet on February 11. So I think Munich's chances of winning the league are still very big. We know Leverkusen is playing very well this season but I see that Munich has a much better squad than Leverkusen so they can rotate their players better and this of course will affect the team's overall performance and mentality.

There's nothing wrong with the prediction you said, but we have to look at what is shown in the standings table, currently Leverkusen haven't lost at all while Bayern have lost twice, so even if in their next meeting (Bayern vs Leverkusen) Bayern wins, that's means that Leverkusen has only lost once, A height of 7 points is really not an easy thing for Bayern to chase, even though they have only played 17 matches while Leverkusen have played 18 matches. so I actually see that Leverkusen's chances of becoming Bundesliga champions this season are much greater than Bayern's chances.

293  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 25, 2024, 09:36:40 PM
Liverpool still have many players that Klopp can rely on even if Salah is absent Liverpool's performance will remain the same as previous performances, it's just that now Arsenal's opponents will certainly be a little tougher but Liverpool will still try to win to stay in the Premier League standings.

Even though Arsenal won big against Crystal Palace, it is not certain that they will win only for motivation, it is natural because the team with the victory will definitely have confidence, but overall the Liverpool squad is still fine even though this is away they still have the potential to win.

Because this match is still long and must face Chelsea first before Arsenal.

I am waiting for the match between Arsenal vs Liverpool which will take place in February, it will definitely be a great match, but it is true that you say before that match, Liverpool will face Chelsea, even though at this time Chelsea's performance is not good but it could be Chelsea give a surprise and hold a draw or even defeat Liverpool (but it's hard because the match will occur at home to Liverpool)

Liverpool is currently the strongest team in EPL so far they have lost 1 time while Man City has lost 3 times and Arsenal has lost 4 times. Liverpool opportunity to become EPL champions this season is very large.
294  Economy / Economics / Re: How to stay poor! on: January 22, 2024, 11:04:50 PM
It is very easy to stay poor  Cheesy I would say if you want to stay poor do not start any business, do not invest in any good asset, Do not work on your good ideas, do not make good strategies, do not take the advice of Good people, do not work on your own dreams just keep thinking I will do it tomorrow and that tomorrow will never come for you.

If you really want to achieve any goal, make good strategies and implement them on your ideas,s and be your own boss.  Smiley

Investing in yourself actually has huge benefits, but many people are not aware of this, investing in education and new skills will definitely have a tremendous impact on lives.

don't chase money, this is the sentence that successful people always say nowadays, they are not chasing money but they are trying hard to become problem solvers in society, just look at what successful people have done by Jeff Bezos - Elon Musk - Zuckerberg, they are great people who at first were not after money but they wanted to provide the best solution to society.

Not all success can be measured with money, in fact there are many people who have little cash but have large investment assets. Apart from the point, we have to be able to invest, choose the best for you.
295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 22, 2024, 10:36:40 PM
Xavi didn't get the money that he wanted and that is a reason he didn't bring the results that were probably expected from him. But before he came into the team he knew that the situation was going to be like this and he still took the job. So he knew what he was getting himself into. So now complaining is not an option for him. I am not saying that he is complaining a lot. But better results are expected. And the tactics are also not the best from him right now. He could do better.

But the problem for Barcelona is that they can not afford to bring in another new coach. Let's say for some reason Barcelona thinks that they deserve better results. They fire Xavi.

who will they bring in?

Who is going to agree to work with a club that has an empty vault?

I also agree with you, actually the problem currently being experienced by Barcelona is that Xavi is unable to provide a good strategy for Barcelona, just look at how Leverkusen is currently turning into a great team even though Leverkusen's squad is very low but Alonso is a great coach If he is able to maximize the abilities of the players he trains, Xavi should imitate what Alonso is doing.
In my opinion, Barcelona currently has an extraordinary squad, the current Barcelona squad is one of the best in the world so buying new players would just be a waste of money. I read the news that Xavi still really wants Bernado Silva, Xavi believes that if Silva is in the Barcelona squad then Barcelona's performance will improve this season, I see this as impossible because Silva is still very comfortable in Man City.

Expecting a battle between Brighton and Wolves tonight... This match is very important for both clubs... I can't say who is the favourite in this match, but the bookies think it's Brighton... Although it seems to me that Wolves are playing just as well at the moment... I think that the bet that both teams will score should work...

Brighton are really unpredictable recently. They are lacking lots of important players due to various reasons these days. This has a really bad impact on their consistency level. One day they score 4 goals against Tottenham but the other day they can't score a single goal against West Ham.  Sad  Otherwise I would have really liked to place a bet on Brighton to win against Wolves honestly.

I'm hardly keeping myself from their win right now too though but I won't. Because it seems really risky while Wolves have been in-form for three weeks on one hand. Playing a home game can still be misleading about Brighton here.

Even though Brighton is in 7th position at the moment, they are still a team that is not very consistent (when facing tottenham in 29/12/23 ago, pedro successfully scored 2 goals and i see that luck is also on brighton) even in the last 5 matches, they were only able to win 1 - lose 1 - draw 3 times. Even so, Brighton's current performance is much better than Newcastle's performance, which continues to lose.


Pochettino reportedly said to the public that Chelsea will not buy players in this transfer market, they will focus on the players they currently have, and face Liverpool later, Pochettino claims their team is ready.

297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto gambling and religious restrictions on: January 22, 2024, 09:57:52 PM
Perhaps the only religion that prohibits gambling is Islam. other than that, it seems that other religions do not really prohibit gambling.
What's more, gambling is online and only uses crypto currency so if you want to gamble, no one will blame you legally. only religiously, even then, only Islam prohibits gambling.
but for the crypto currency itself there is no problem. like money wants to be used for sin or good things, it depends on the user.

I think all religions prohibit gambling but most likely the most harsh one in prohibiting it is Islam.I know people from all religions who are religious and they all say that their religion prohibit gambling,even Buddist people say so.The funny thing is that these persons despite saying like that they used to play even with Fiat money as long as it was online and none of their circle knew about them gambling.Now with crypto is even easier.

It's very funny if someone thinks that gambling with fiat is haram while gambling with crypto currency is not haram. I once asked someone who was a Muslim about the reasons why gambling was haram in their religion, he said that gambling could trigger someone to commit other crimes because if they win or lose gambling, the player will definitely commit a sin.
Therefore, gamble as much as you can, don't let our carelessness and greed cause us to suffer losses, all religions prohibit gambling, but if you can't lose when gambling then your view of gambling in your religion will be different.

I made a very wrong decision on a game I staked today and this is unlike me because I don't normally check on my games until its settled because sometimes you will tempted with some crazy things like cash-out which is what I did today and although you won't blame me to some extent but still if I was patient enough as the final results if the games came through and Instead of winning the whole money, I got only a fraction of the funds.

I don't know whether what you are saying is true but I am sorry for your story, in gambling the rule that must be obeyed is patience, those who are impatient will definitely only suffer losses, I also lost a lot because of my desire to get my money back. who have lost but ultimately end up with big losses.
Not everyone, even though they know that what they are doing is wrong, will stop playing when they have run out of capital, even worse, some gambling addicts will incur other debts to gamble, people who follow their passion for gambling too much will only make themselves lose money, so when you are losing today, stop first then continue again tomorrow.
299  Economy / Economics / Re: How will the BRICS currency influence Bitcoin? on: January 22, 2024, 07:31:33 PM
Whatever they (BRICS) do, remember that it is the people who use Bitcoin, not the government. Until now we have seen big countries using Bitcoin as their opponent, but Bitcoin is still strong and there are still many people who use Bitcoin as a tool for transactions and trading.
As far as I know, all the countries that joined BRICS already have their own CBDC, but what happens is that people are not interested in it and prefer to use Bitcoin or other crypto assets rather than using the CBDC that the government issues.
bitcoin will remain strong, even if BRICS does not adopt it, they are afraid to fight bitcoin strongly and suppress, against bitocin = against citizens.
300  Economy / Economics / Re: How influential is crypto worldwide? on: January 22, 2024, 06:54:04 PM
I feel like it's not as influential as it is right now and seeing that even with I perceived to be a small amount of influence that crypto is still increasing in value by day makes me full of hope that the more people getting into crypto then the more the price will increase and this is probably a start yet and we're not yet at what many thinks is the true peak of crypto so if that doesn't say anything about the potential of crypto then I don't know what others are waiting for.

Cryptocurrency has become a topic of conversation among many people around the world, there are even many people who use it for transactions, even though government regulations in many countries are still gray regarding cryptocurrencies.
Before cryptocurrencies boomed, we never saw many crypto-related businesses popping up such as exchanges and others, this also made me see that cryptocurrencies have really influenced the world economy.
Adoption of cryptocurrencies will not necessarily cause prices to increase because there are many crypto assets being traded, but the adoption of bitcoin can make the popularity of cryptocurrencies increase sharply.
