I doubt that you are making money from it like you claim because if you do then they won't complain when they see the things you achieve with money. Old people like to see their children doing good with money and taking care of expenses and who doesn't ? So you probably wasting your money if you are not making money and don't that they will keep quiet.


They will want to know how you making money if really you are taking care of the home front and by that you can educate them. You don't expect someone to believe you in things like bitcoin with the story and propaganda against it.

I don't think there is a relationship between betting against the public and not betting against the public because it doesn't really affect the outcome of the game, it is just a strategy that you adopt for a particular bet. If you choose to bet against the crowd, it is a choice and it won't change the outcome of what will eventually happen if you don't.


Low odd games are those that the public usually go for. They look easy because it is between big clubs and small club where smaller teams are given bigger odds. I also prefer the big odd games, they increase chances of winning big but you have to analyse very well, not all big odds game have the potential for winning.

The growth is not yet overwhelming to take the shine away from fiat because alot of people still storing fiat, investing in real life of course with fiat. People need to be on the internet space for them to invest with cryptocurrency so for now we still have to keep creating that scam free atmosphere with cryptocurrency and that will allay the fear of the growing population of cryptocurrency.

There is no need to ask if you can win such jackpots in casino or not because it is specified how much that can be won maximally in a bet. It is to go through the rules and you see that. They limit the winning limit and you can't win more than what it specify. Like in Nigeria, the gambling companies have a limit that you can bet with and the limit also for winning and so it is not possible for you to bet below the minimum amount or to win above the winning limit.

You are right on that because I have also seen many posters not having signature campaign on them or applying either. For those users it doesn't matter what financial gains from the forum yet they are dedicated to the forum, supporting other users were necessary. So I think the main benefit or booster is the learning process that the forum affords. It trains people's mind to investment in bitcoin and cryptocurrency it also expose users to the reality that online space is to be taken with all care and diligent not to be scammed.

Prevention is better than cure is what they say and that is what addict don't know and won't do because they are always interested in shooting for profit and don't care about how much they are losing until they run out of cash totally and get into depression. It is those who have less control of themselves that will chase losses until they are finally bankrupt.

I hope you are better with the new year already running. Yeah we pray and wish for peace but it seem a mirage in the world we live. Human being is built with interest and having to interact with each other, there will be clash of interest and this is certain but we can only manage to handle it. We have had this clash causing different revolutions in the past and empire subduing the less powerful like the Roman empire far back in history. We have also had first and second world war, hope we won't have the third. . I wish the Ukrainian would have peace .

High chance games are not illusion because some bettors are confidence to put in their risk money into it. A gambling addict sees it as a chance to increase his money and not just the losing aspect. For example if we are to consider some games played by drake then you will see how the chance games work. If you benefit from it then it won't be considered as an illusion because it is a possibility if you have the moral to try your luck but however you don't play such high games if you can't take the loses too.

A single person or few people can not over take the majority in decision or things like throwing away cash. It presence is still felt all around the world even in war zone like Russia and Ukraine like you mentioned. They are only struggling to modernize the system into cashless so that it is not carried about and that prevent more security challenges. This is going to last longer before cash could go off the street but that is very difficult with the challenges of internet, so many traditional users of cash which are those above 40 years are still around and that is a challenge already in taking away cash from the system.

It is not new to gambling. I have heard people betting this way but I don't really think it makes any difference especially in football and where you can't prove match fixing or how will the players know of the population of bettors in a particular odd or betting option. So I don't consider it professional but yet a prove that gambling is a game of luck and to whatever means you device to win so you try on it.

The reason for thinking to bet against the public is that people think that since greater number of people have bet in a certain direction that the luck will go against them so they want to stay behind the other side. But IMO I think to do a personal analysis of the game is better than just betting randomly depending on the public view or bet.

I know a friend who doesn't allow others to see his betting slip just because of this reason of public awareness of the bet.

The story of the countryman is that of high type of greed and he wants to get everything at once but ended up losing the source he was getting the golden eggs at least once in a day. Every person who is greedy will go that part eventually. If we compare the price of bitcoin last two months to what it is today, we can see it has added 3k, that is from 17k to 20k. Being patient is what a hodler needs and halving is yet coming, I think we may see high volatility this time with the rate of price increase.

The system I think has been compromised that is what can lead to that. There could be insiders in the apex bank doing the sabotage to the government. The government need to flush out bad eggs from her system otherwise the sabotage will continue and that is affecting the economy. The confidence in Naira is falling and that has affected also the exchange against the dollar.

Talking in relation to women, I don't agree that it is religion that has oppressed women, no it is the society at large that has done that especially in African society. African society is majorly patrilineal and that is oppressive already but do we even say it is oppressive if that is the people's way of life. Culture is the way that people life, organise and do their own stuff so it is already settled that is the way they live.


I think the custodians and interpreters are the culprits in this. The way they present what is written in the scriptures is the issue and followers follow sheepishly.

I think I have not heard of it either especially that of fighting sports like boxing. This kind of best are usually serious in nature, the opponent always try to win and so would not bet and maybe there is a rule guiding against that to avoid manipulation and unseriousness on the fight. It is the spectators that bet on games like this and even soccer. I think a player in local match can bet to score a goal or two in a particular match but I don't know about the international football yet on that.

The question you asked is wise so that other newbies can also learn. As a newbie you need to read extensively to understand the boards that fits the topic you want to discuss. So there are different boards and if you post your topic wrongly in another board then the moderator will move it into appropriate board for you. Don't be surprised if your post is moved from the board you posted in to another board, it is just for the reason I stated earlier meaning you posted in wrong board.

If casinos put out such disclaimer on such as not to respond to complaint of customers here it shows they want to distant themselves from the watching eyes of members here. But it is a choice for members who see such disclaimer to decide. However I understand also that whatsoever is the resolution they have outside this thread will be brought back here either through thread and if the resolution is not favourable to members here then scam accusation will be opened against them for members to know what is happening.

Considering this on self defence and the way the court look at it. To this I think some people will consider the measure of defense against the strength of attack. Like if it is assault done on someone with mere plastic chair and the defender goes on to use lethal or gun to retaliate, this is not to be considered as self defense. Moreover if the attacker dies from the lethal weapon of the defender, it becomes a crime. I think this is the rationale behind the illegality of self defense. It should be measure for measure and not taking the opportunity to cause bodily harm while the attacker's effect wouldn't inflict such injury.

Remember shit coins are also used for other crypto market activities and not just operating like bitcoin. Some prefer to hodl other projects because they use them for trading. Having up to 90% of bitcoin is good but some altcoins can also give you some profit like staking them. Bitcoin is not staked but you can staked some altcoins and make profit from them and this is an advantage.

Faith without work amounts to nothing. No pain no gain as they say it. If you have a good mindset that is not where it ends because you must have to work for that mindset that you have. If you are not doing well likewise you can change your destiny by working harder but working harder is not about the amount of muscles you have in your biceps but your ability to change your environment, ability to learn new things because if you are doing the same thing every day then don't expect a different result.

It was a rise and fall story and like you said human life is full of such and it will get to a point where you will be a little more stable and if you are stronger then you could rise forever. I thank God for all those times and now because he preserve my life and a living soul still has the opportunity to be better. It takes effort and not to lazy around. Doing odd jobs is not the end of our lives but how we are able to struggle through it that matters. I may not have shared a particular story but I tell you there are very many of them but above all I was hopeful and I kept fighting and with God my future is better than my past.



So where is the lady in your life today?  I hope she is somewhere special in your life or if not I hope you made her know you appreciated her role in your life because it is always good to show people how much we appreciate them while they were still alive and not in death.
