kung kaya mo na protektahan sarili mo sa masasamang loob eh pwede ka magyabang at mapasikat , pero kung hindi mo magagawang ingatan sarili mo eh tama lang na manahimik at makuntento sa maganda buhay na meron tayo.
Mas maganda ng play safe at kahit na successful ka sa crypto investments mo, mas mainam na tahimik lang. Kahit na may kakayahan tayong protektahan sarili natin, mas okay na manahimik nalang. Yun lang ang sa tingin ko na makakabuti sa bawat isa, kahit na kaya mong ipagyabang kung anong meron ka, siguro sa mga close mo lang talaga o di kaya sa pamilya mo lang na puwede mong i-treat sa labas at sabihin mo sa kanila na maganda ganda ang kita mo.
Hindi kasi natin kontrolado ang sitwasyon at lalong hindi natin alam kung ano ang nasa isip ng iba. May mga tao din naman na nagfiflex ng kanilang nga achievements in life upang maging inspirasyon ng iba hindi yung ipagmamayabang, kaso imbes na mamotivate ang iba na "Kaya nya nga, kaya ko din!" ay naiinggit sila. Kapag ang isang tao ay naiinggit, ibig sabihin ay hindi nya lang gustong kunin ang mga achievements mo sa buhay kundi gusto nya ring pabagsakin ka. Kaya dahil hindi natin talagang kilala ang mga tao sa Social Media ay mas mabuting iwasan nalang ang mag flex lalong-lalo na sa pera.

Ang iba naman ay nagfflex para lang ipakita na may naachieve na sila pero lung tutuussin, wala naman tayong dapat patunayan sa social media o kahit sa mga tao sa paligid natin. Tandaan natin na hindi lahat ay masaya sa pag-angat natin. Marami sa mga makakakita ng achievements natin ang pwedeng mainggit at magwish pa na bumagsak tayo kaya mas mabuti nang maging lowkey para hindi rin makapagattract ng negativity. Isa pa, ang pagfeflex ng pera o ano mang karangyaan ay nagaattract din ng mga masasamang loob na nagaabang lang ng target nila so better be safe at gawing confidential ang mga ganitong bagay.
Kung masaya man tayo sa naachieve natin ay dapat may limitasyon pa rin. Maaaring maoverwhelmed tayo pero dapat controllin pa din natin ang sarili natin at laging isaalang alang ang safety natin higit sa lahat ang pamilya natin. Walang masama sa pagfeflex pero nagiging masama ito aa paningin ng iba kaya magingat na lang tayo.
302  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Before investing on meme coin or shitcoins consider this. on: June 24, 2023, 09:50:34 PM
Good advices but here's a thing or two about these people that have been investing into these and keeping the faith for their fate of being rich with those.

They won't listen to people's reminder that are worried and concerned about them. They'll continue to what they've been doing and no matter what reminders and tips you give them, they'll still give their best shot to it.

As they've been into, they'll only say that they afford to lose it and what if the investment they've made there will make them rich. Even so, they won't listen until they ran out of money.

Maybe in most people there are people who are really stubborn, because they will buy and keep buying for sure. Because there are and still are meme coins that can make anyone who trusts rich. Just like those who believed in Pepe coin.

Do you think if other pepe coin investors followed what others are saying here that it's just shitcoins they would be enjoying the money they made from pepe coins today? It means maybe as long as you know how to look for potential meme coins as long as you are sure of what you are choosing there is nothing wrong with that and do it. The bad thing is that you know it has potential but you still haven't bought it. If the market is unpredictable, it's the same with the selection of meme coins that we think are useless but in the end they are.

Some meme coins could probably be profitable during its hype but that couldn't change the fact that they are still meme coins. We can make profit from it if we know how to take advantage of the hype. If ever we gain profit due to their popularity, that doesn't mean that they already have a huge potential because we could only see the real potential of a coin on how it will survive in the long run. Most investors who make a profit from meme coins are early investors. Those who invested after the hype usually end up losing just like other meme coins that turned into rugs last year. Meme coins are for risk-takers but we shouldn't expect too much from them. If you want assurance, better invest with high-potential coins especially those that have proven a lot already
303  Economy / Economics / Re: Rent or buy real estate - let's have a debate on: June 24, 2023, 04:32:32 PM
I totally get your point about preferring to buy rather than rent. It's a smart long-term investment strategy if you have the means. But you're right. It's not as easy as it sounds. There are challenges and considerations involved, especially when it comes to financing and managing the property.
Every choice will always have a good side and a bad side, a good side and a bad side. It's just that when talking about which option has more advantages than disadvantages, I personally am more inclined to buy and fully own the property. although maintenance is needed, the increase in property prices from year to year will cover the maintenance costs. different from renting which will make the money we pay only evaporate and we cannot expect any development for the money we pay.
Well, renting is never a choice but it's a compulsion, one who rents a place to give doesn't do it because they want to but they do it because they have to, the main reason behind that is of course lack of finances to be able to buy a property. You can never find a person who has enough money to buy a home but still lives on rent, if you find anyone doing that, that person is either out of their mind or have some complications in their life.

So the answer to the question of whether one would like to have their own property or rent a house will always be that they would like to have their own home instead of paying a certain amount of money in rent every month and living in different places in different phases of their lives.

For sure, all of us wants to own real estate properties and to live in our own home without the need of renting but we have different financial situations. Some people choose to rent over buying properties because of a lack of funds and renting is what they could only afford so that doesn't mean that renters choose to rent because they are not into buying land properties. It's just that we have different privileges.
It's just a good thing that there are rent-to-own programs in our country which will also help renters to own land properties by renting for years. It may take a long time but I think it's a better opportunity than just renting alone. I'm sure that if we are all financially capable of investing, real estate investment will be one of our main options.

The probability of winning a lottery is very slim but sometimes we might be calculating the tendency to win thinking that it could be easy for us but mere looking at it, it is very difficult for us if we look at it from a general angle. It isnjuts like throwing a dice and calculating the tendency for us to have number 6 and a result. We can throw the dice and it can take us like 20 to 60 throw for us to have the number 6.
Those that play lottery and keep winning are just being lucky.
Exactly , and I think the hopes to win is the reason why people  play Lottery and to be very frank, I really don't enjoy play Lottery  and I can't  even remember  if I ever tried it simply  because I wasn't told any good stories about it.
I have a friend who is a huge fan of lottery and I wouldn't say his addicted but he does enjoys playing more of lottery to any form.of gambling  and I guess because he feels more lucky in that field and though the lottery he promotes isn't a big one, and the winnings aren't that life transforming bjt the consistency of their payoff is good to me but I'm never moved to pay and one thing I've learnt so far is the fact that people who play the lottery are one set of persons with high hopes and people who believe in the impossible.

As long as there will be testimonies and winning stories from lottery winners, people will always have an interest in it. Most lottery bettors have high hopes believing they could have their lives changed through it though the percentage of winning is too low. They believe that their luck could bring them a life-changing fate in the future. Many people are hooked to it because they could bet with just a single penny and it has been a part of their routine. Some bettors have been betting with the same number combination for years and still not losing hope. I think they see a lot of possibilities in the lottery despite the risk and low chances of winning.

what makes you sure that your Bitcoin arrived safely and was not taken away by the owner?


When you use Bitcoin, it is quite safe and difficult for the owner to snatch it. Blockchain technology makes everything transparent and secure. Every transaction is logged, so you can see if your Bitcoins reach you. The fancy crypto stuff ensures the transaction is legit. Well, what you need to do is make sure you use a secure wallet and keep your private keys safe that way, you are in control of your Bitcoins, and no one can mess with it.

In the blockchain technology, you're the one who is in control of accessing your funds as long as you alone have the access on it and if you're storing them in a safer wallet. You can actually track your transaction if you're having doubts. If you seek assurance, when it comes to storing, you better keep your funds in a safer wallet and not on exchanges because you still don't know the possible things that might happen. You can use your personal blockchain wallet or a hard wallet to assure that your assets are safe. Even huge and reputable exchanges are still prone to hacking so you must be wise to rule your funds.
Putting funds in exchanges will only be safe for a short term period or for transaction purposes only especially if you're doing trading. Exchanges these days have strong security systems but we shouldn't be too confident because scammers and hackers are also getting smarter each day.
306  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Confident Are You In The Reliability of the KYC system on: June 23, 2023, 04:49:40 PM
Take note, Casinos will ask or demand a KYC if there's a big winning involved, is this one of their ways to scam their players?

It's somehow debatable because there are other platforms that I personally know of that are not really strict about their KYC procedure as long as you can provide the needed documents to prove that it's you personally who have won the money and of course, if you're eligible to get the massive wins and that you're already old enough to be playing for starters.

Although I also heard some isolated cases that casinos are using KYCs to get away with their responsibilities and has been using that ever since to decline the users of their winnings. I'd say, we've signed up for it and it was our own choice that we chose them and personally, it's already a gamble choosing reliable and reputable casinos because we all know that they are all not the same

Yes, there are cases where winners have complied with the KYC requirements but casinos aren't allowing them to pass the procedure which I think is unfair to players who have experienced such a thing. That's also one of the reasons why most gamblers these days are avoiding KYCs to get rid of unnecessary and unexpected situations in the future.
With reputable casinos, I don't have any doubt when it comes to passing the KYC requirements as I believe that they are protecting their users' private information. They aren't using KYC against their players as long as all the required documents are complete. Casinos really have to require KYCs to protect their site and to avoid abuse at the same time. They are also requiring it to track fraudulent activities.
307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between futures trading and gambling on: June 23, 2023, 04:10:36 PM
There are many gamblers that can gamble just to have some fun and make money in the process and there are some that focus on gambling only to make money so I would like to ask such people a question.

would you prefer to gamble in a casino and make some money or learn about futures trading and make some money?

Which one do you actually find to be more easier and I believe that futures trading is also capable of giving someone life-changing money but which one do you believe is less risky than the other?

You can actually do both things at the same time. It all depends on how you will handle these but you should never disregard the risks. Keep in mind the possibility of losing would always exist but these two will differ when it comes to skills. Trading especially in futures will take a long process of learning. It is not as easy as gambling where you will just choose where to bet and what to choose because it requires further understanding of analysis and dealing with the market's volatility. I must say that future isn't for everyone because it needs eagerness and willingness to learn and adopt knowledge.
In gambling, no matter how skills you may apply, your profit and earnings will still rely on your luck. Doing both is possible but challenging but it requires the presence of mind and focus. It also needs discipline and a proper mindset.
308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you find it offensive to be referred to as an addicted gambler? on: June 23, 2023, 03:37:47 PM

if you tell a gambler who you think is addicted that he or she is an addict, and he or she picks an offense, do not blame such a gambler because it's very possible he or she is yet to realize he's or she's addicted, they can only discover when they decide to stop gambling but realize they are finding it difficult to stop.

Perfectly understandable. A whole lot of addicts wouldn’t actually realize they’re addicts unless being told to their face or perhaps when they’re trying to stop the habit and finds out that it’s not as easy to stop as it initially was when first starting out.
I can understand when an addicted gambler takes offense when being told to his face that he’s addicted. Denial is a phase when the person doesn’t believe he/she can get addicted and denial in itself could hinder any thoughts of trying to get better cause in the mind, there is no addiction to get out of.
But most addicted gamblers will not stop even though they already know they are addicted to gambling. They can easily deny it and show proof that they are not a gambling addict. But some gamblers who are addicted to gambling and find out that they are gambling addicts will be offended and even angry at people who say that. They would probably say it was none of their business, knowing he was a gambling addict. It is very difficult to tell someone affected by gambling addiction, but if it is a family member, we must warn him and ask him to heal himself.

Any form of addiction would face a denial stage where they would neglect listening to opinions and observations by the people around them. Most of them are aware that they are spending too much time in gambling but they couldn't notice personally that they are really into gambling addiction. They will surely feel offended and will deny other people's observations as their defense but I don't think telling or informing them that they are already addicted to gambling would stop them from excessive playing.
To occasional gamblers, it will surely hurt their feelings unless it will be delivered in a good manner where they could also explain their side and defend themselves. Of course, most of us are protecting our image and being referred as a gambling addict is a heavy thing for us to bear.
309  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Paraan para umunlad ang Buhay pinansyal on: June 22, 2023, 05:11:15 PM
Isa sa mga natutunan ko ay ang pagdevelop ng ating kakayahan o skills dahil isa ito sa pinakaimportante na dapat nating madevelop, sabi nga nila ay knowledge is power. Sa pagdevelop ng ating kakayahan ay malaki ang maitutulong neto sa ating buhay pinansyal. Sa panahon ngayon ay kung wala kang sapat na skills ay hindi ka mahihire sa isang trabaho. Alam naman naten na nakabase sa experience at skills ang ating mga salary sa ating trabaho. At isa sa pinakasafe na investment na magagawa ng ating mga kababayan kung gusto natin kumita ng mabilis at safe na pera ay maghanap tayo ng trabaho.
Kaya sobrang daming mga courses at mga online seminars ang makikita natin kung mag scroll lang tayo sa Facebook alone. Ang pag improve ng skill ang isa sa pinakamagandang pagkakakitaan ngayon. Dahil dito sa bansa natin na limited lang ang opportunity, sa mga skilled naman mas maraming opportunity na dumadating na kahit nandito ka lang sa Pinas, madami kang maa-applyan at mas malaki ang chance mo na makatanggap ng job offer o di kaya ay mag apply ng WFH jobs kasi nga isa yan sa ima-market mo bilang service.
Ang skills ang pinaka maibebenta natin pag nag hahanap tayo ng trabaho. Kahit nga hindi ka nakapag tapos ng pag aaral eh posible ka makahanap ng high paying job. Nakita naman natin ang social media na punong puno ng rags to riches stories na yung skills lang nila yung ginamit nila para makita kung nasaan sila ngayon. Sinasabayan pa nila ng business and investment which is necessary if may funds ka na at gusto mo tuloy tuloy ang pag unlad mo. Marami naman course online na kahit nasa bahay kalang is magagawa mo matutunan yun, marami na ring investment guides online. Halos lahat ay matututunan mo if may pag sisikap at determinasyon ka matutunan ang gusto mong path sa buhay.

Sa panahon natin ngayon na kung saan mas marami na ang remote job opportunities ay skills na talaga ang labanan at hindi na gaya noon na diploma na lang ang tiitingnan. Ngayon, ang mga international clients ay nakabase na lang sa skills at experience ng mga applicants at hindi na sa educational attainment at certificates nila kaya mas makagagaan talaga sa buhay lalo na kung long term pag mas marami tayong skills na inaral.
Mas advantage nga ngayon dahil marami tayong resources na mapagkukuhanan na kung saan karamihan ay libre lang. Maraming pages ang nagooffer ng free courses para makapag upskill pa tayo. Determinasyon at willingness to learn talaga ang magdadala sa atin sa financial freedom. Sa tindi ng kumpetenya ngayon, mas lamang ka kung mas marami kang skills dahil mas marami kang opportunities na pwedeng igrab. Sa simpleng panonood at pagaaral ay mkakapagupskill na tayo. Kailangan lang talagang maging masigasig at maging masikap lalo na at napaka convenient ng remote jobs para sa atin at di hamak na mas malaki ang pwedeng kitain.
310  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: June 22, 2023, 04:36:04 PM
If you have that kind of trick to win, you better not spit it out or casinos will be checking who else has found that trick.

I'm sure morals can be bent until proven to be a cheat but if it's a strategy it's possibly gonna be pushed by a gambler as a strategy than a cheat. Until it's not proven to be a cheat, then the conscience is clean. I have tried different tricks already somehow I find it not worth it in the end, one cheat to exploit isn't so bad lol. Now spit it out!

Many gamblers have been doing tricks and strategies for them to win but that doesn't mean that they are cheating unless the casino itself would see it as an illegal activity. For a gambler who has been experiencing losing streaks, I'm sure that it will be easier for him to decide whether to cheat or not especially if it will help him recover from his losses.
It will be a risk because we might be penalized for our actions if it's against the casino's TOS which may affect our account or even our future transactions that might also put our funds on hold. If we'll do such a thing, we have to make sure that we are also ready to face the possible consequences because for sure, once the casino notices that they're being abused, they will also take action to penalize proven cheaters.
311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: June 22, 2023, 03:58:54 PM
If the main idea is to get VIP rewards, I believe focusing on 1 site is better than having 3 different casino accounts at the same time.
It will be easier to manage our gambling funds if we play in 1 casino only and the rewards we may maximize the possible VIP rewards from the casino.
Of course it is also based on my personal experience and you have your own experience as well as your own preferences about this thing.
At the end, our casinos may become useless once we stop wagering for long time because VIP program will always be based on our gambling activity.

Especially to users with less capital in casinos. A gambler will have to deposit or lose a significant amount of money before he can rank in a casino. The rich gamblers may be able to rank easily and the addicted ones may already have VIP accounts too. It pays to be a gambling addict I say  Cheesy

So having 3 mature accounts, I guess will not make this user deposit any further after all the benefits can still make him play around all those 3 accounts. No wonder there are VIP casino accounts that are for sale.

If the players aim for a higher tier then it will be hard to maintain it using three accounts and it will also cost him a lot since he has to play and continue wagering in all those accounts. It will be much easier to focus on a single account to continuously enjoy the VIP perks. Having multiple accounts in different casinos will also not grant you too much luck. Maybe you've just been lucky but the same thing will not happen no matter how many accounts you may have regardless of their maturity.
Wagering and focusing on one casino that you're comfortable with will be less stressful for you to maintain and handle as you could focus on getting the bonuses and promotions that they could offer because of your rank. Unless your goal is to enjoy different perks from different gambling sites.
312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do gambling addicts bother about the consequences of their actions? on: June 22, 2023, 03:27:21 PM
1. Do gambling addicts ever take a second thought on what the consequences of their actions can be not just to them but on those close to them? 

As far as I know, gamblers who are addicted usually don't think long ahead, they are usually short minded and tend to solve their problems with violence. In some cases, they become more aggressive and are willing to hurt those around them, if these people stand up to them and call gambling bad.

2. Do they in reality genuinely feel any remorse about  how those affected by their actions might be feeling? 

Usually they will not think about the feelings of the people around them. They tend to only think about themselves and their gambling. These addicts don't even have a sense of remorse for the actions they take which can harm not only them, but also the people around them.

Gambling addicts only want to fulfill their desire to gamble. They only want to feel satisfied and follow their urge to bet regardless of the possible results. They gamble with no direction, no target goal, no restrictions, and no fear, therefore they aren't disturbed by the results of their actions. They are also not concern about the feelings of people around them because if yes, it will be easy for them to stop and quit. Gambling addiction is an emotional condition that needs a professional help so advices or even the negative effects of their actions will not affect them anymore.
I think those who are just starting to fall for gambling addiction would still be able to find remorse about how their wrong decisions would affect them but it could only drag them to the worse situation of falling more into addiction.
I agree that gambling addicts are blinded to the long term effect because what they want is just to enjoy their present gambling activity.
313  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Next bull market comes in June on: June 21, 2023, 10:48:29 PM
Absolutely we wanted it but not chance now for bull market. June month coming soon end but the crypto market conditions still Fail. If i have billion assets then i can change crypto market but i am a small investors so that's why i couldn’t talked confirmed date for when coming bull market.

I agree with you, even though currently market conditions have started to improve again, but I think this month (June) is still not the time for a bull run occurs, because according to my predictions, a bull run might occur at the end of the year or early next year, so now it's still the right time for us to continue do DCA Bitcoin or altcoin that we invest and hold until a bullrun occurs (not until 1 year), because I'm sure when a bull run occurs, then the price of Bitcoin and altcoin will increase very high or even make a new ATH price, so it will make us get a big profit from investing in Bitcoin and altcoin at this time.

A few days and June will be over and we haven't seen a glimpse of the bull season so I must say that we're still far from that. There might be a few market price improvements but there hasn't been an indication showing the market's bull trend. It will still be best if we'll take advantage of this season to accumulate more potential coins while we're waiting for the bullish season to approach.
It will be hard to expect for a bullish trend without any preparation so it will be best if we have prepared well for it through long-term investment. We will only benefit from the bull season if we bought good coins during their low prices. I think it will take months or even years before the bull season comes but at least we are prepared enough in case it happens.
314  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Better to have a trading knowledge than depending on signals. on: June 21, 2023, 10:18:58 PM
I honestly don't trust trading signals at all. Why should I risk my money depending on others? Does he have skills about trading that I should pursue? Maybe we can take some ideas from him to master trading ourselves but he asked to buy a coin and if we buy that coin on blind faith and hope for profit then it will not bring good results at all. Be confident in yourself and prepare yourself for trading. It will be very difficult for us to gain a complete understanding of trading but if we are patient and work hard to gain enough knowledge about trading then we will always be successful in trading. So those who buy different coins depending on others please stop doing this.
Despite the fact that I have been trading cryptocurrency for a long time, I am still no expert in the field, and I have never relied on trade signals. Most of them simply want paid signal services, but we can perform our own analyses by conducting independent research. It's a challenging endeavor, but what matters is that we are able to complete it on our own without depending on purchased signals, which might only be a waste of money. The use of our own expertise and understanding when trading is important.
Trading requires a lot of studying, but if we are ready and willing to learn everything there is to know, we will be able to do analysis effectively and on our own. Only when we can save money and improve our job knowledge should we be willing to learn new things.

Just try to make it more attractive so you can easily catch the interest of most players. Also, you can try to create a formal ANN thread about your casino where you could answer queries and post updates about your events there. It will be easier for players to reach out to you there if ever they would have concerns and questions. You can check the ANN thread of other casinos so you'll have an idea.

316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Categories of Unrealistic Sports Betting Expectations on: June 21, 2023, 09:35:16 PM
We encounter different categories of sports bettors every day, both online and offline. However, some of them express unrealistic expectations regarding their potential winnings.

The first category is composed of sports bettors with a $1000 bankroll who hope to make $100,000 by the end of the year. In what universe do they think this is possible? Such expectations are unrealistic and only occur in the lottery, not in sports betting. Even in sports betting, it would be a chance occurrence, happening only once in every 100 bets. A more realistic expectation would be to aim for increasing their bankroll.
this could be extremely hard but I don't think it is unrealistic, with luck, proper money management, and knowledge of the game, etc... though could be extremely hard, it is possible to achieve, especially if you have 1 year(if you start at the beginning of the year) to turn $1k into $100k. some members mentioned NAPK1NS_RA3, using him as an example shows that it is not unrealistic.


It is possible but it will take time. We can't generate such an amount of profit in just a short period. We know that if our target profit is huge, then our capital must be huge as well. To make it happen, the gambler must have an effective strategy and be wise in every move that he would make. However, if a player is compulsive especially when it comes to decision-making, there's also a risk that instead of reaching his target profit, he might lose the same amount.
Sometimes our expectations that exceed the reality could bring us into more losses. We have to keep in mind that gambling has risks that we have to deal with and that the result mostly relies on our luck. We can expect big profits but we can't disregard the fact that we can also face losses along the way. If we will have an unrealistic target, we might end up chasing our losses just to reach what we want.
317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Casinos Go Bankrupt Because of Player Wins? on: June 21, 2023, 09:16:35 PM
Is it possible for a casino to go bankrupt because a player gets a very big win?

I think maybe that's hard to happen if we look at casinos that are already big and well known. But suppose there is a new casino, and there are some players who are very good at playing, so they can win continuously, can the casino go bankrupt? or do they already have an algorithm or a way so players can't keep winning?

That algorithm is always there, they can't let the players keep winning. I believe it's always there. I don't believe that a casino can go bankrupt just because a player got a big win. We have what we called the house edge, this will allow the casino to garner more profit outside of the one they have earned from the losing bets. So, even if there are a handful of players who wins big today and tomorrow, there are still more than enough to cover their winning amount from those gamblers who have lost today. Casinos are just basically paying winners using the money from the losers and the casinos are profiting primarily with the house edge.
So therefore, no it's most likely not possible for a casino to go bankrupt for the reason that someone has made a huge winning.

Casinos already know how to keep their business running and winning gamblers will not make them have huge losses. They know how to make things work and as a powerhouse, they will always have an edge. A player can't keep winning and once they notice it, they will surely put limitations. Each casino has their own strategy.
However, it could happen to some small time and casinos that are beginning especially those who can't handle and manage the business wisely. But this rarely happens because most casinos are protecting their names and reputation. That's the reason why those who are putting up a casino make sure that they know how to deal with the possibilities. Their goal is to keep their business running and to generate profit from it so they won't let winning players to be the reason for their bankruptcy.
318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who is to be blamed, the gambler or the betting agent on: June 20, 2023, 10:14:51 PM
The agent wasn't the one to be blamed to be honest and the worker really has the capacity to pay that debt on his name with 4 days of working. Maybe, the agent knows that the worker can pay it and he really knows where he can be found, so he didn't hesitate to give him some credits. I think the gambler should be the one responsible for what he had act.
This problem lies in gambling addiction and I will not blame any of them for anything. Gambling when we do it too frequently could make us become an addict with a bigger consequences if we don't know how to reduce our urge. Gambling is something we all want to make money from and that is why the person that have to gamble on credit did that thinking that he will make profit from it and return the money back to the agent.

 This is why we need to try and bet with the fund that we can afford to lose not going further because it greed and end up losing big in gambling because we want to make big profits. Greed had given many of us scar on our skin due to mistakes which other gamblers can learn from to prevent the same error.
Gambling is not the problem, it has been there ever since and we all know that it has risks that you'll lose in the first place. It is our urge that we think we can make profit out of it because we feel it but in reality that wouldn't be reciprocated. Addiction isn't the cause of the constant thing, it is cause because we tend to make a habit out of it and gambling isn't an exception, we have choices and it's upon our responsibility to make those choices.

Gambling will always be gambling, and it may be very addicting, but it all depends on our ability to manage our impulses and refrain from placing excessive bets. It is not our fault, but rather our choice to risk more out of greed and a desire to cover up for the time we lost. Everything would depend on our personal decision because we were genuinely given the ability to decide whether or not to gamble and whether to continue or stop.
Because we were the ones who made our own decisions after losing at gambling, we cannot hold anyone else responsible for the consequences we are currently experiencing. If the employee had set boundaries and exercised self-control in the first place, this issue would not have arisen.

In my personal view, there are only a few women who know how to gamble in casinos and most of them are actually men who love gambling. But in land-based casinos, women are often used by house edge owners to attract gamblers to play.

You know what it means, even in online casinos the faces of sexy women are displayed on the platform interface of their website, right? Now the question is, even if only a few women gamble, are they luckier than male gamblers?
showing the face of a beautiful woman is the best way (not only in the gambling business but in almost all businesses that have a male target market) by gambling business owners to attract more gambling players to play in their place, but for the answer to what you asked (what women luckier than men) i think the answer is that both women and men have the same luck, it's just that men and women have differences in emotional control, so i see that women rarely become gambling addicts, while men are quite many become gambling addicts.

Given their keener and more experienced decision-making abilities, women are better able to manage their urges to gamble. Women also value their reputation more than men do since we are aware of society's expectations of us. They also have greater obligations and perform more duties than males, leaving them with insufficient free time for gambling.
Luck has no preference for any gender. Regardless of gender, a person may be fortunate and it all depends on the technique he employs. According to my observations, women like to play games that produce results more quickly and don't require a strategic execution because, as I've already indicated, their time for gambling is simply limited.

Tingin maganda yung mga ganitong organization para lang lumawak ang connection mo. Kulang sa mga details kung ano ang magiging perk ng isang member. Hanggang katapusan nalang ng June ang membership, tingin ko maganda din na makasalamuha ka sa mga bigating mga yan. Yun ay kung kapag may mga pa-event itong organization na ito ay present yang mga yan. Ang dami ko pa sana gustong malaman kaso kulang sa article. Chineck ko FB page nila parang wala masyadong ganap at following sila. Pero kung sa 1k eh ok lang sayo gastusin para sa membership fee, go lang.

Totoo lang kasi kulang kulang details eh, siguro yung title la na part ka nung organization yung benefits mo diyan as in matawag ka na member eh ayon na yung advantage mo. Pero hirap pa din kasi mag try ng walang complete details kahit na sabihin mong 1k eh mababa lang sa iba pero money is money, mas oks pa din nagagamit natin pera natin sa useful na bagay. Still nasa sa inyo pa rin yan kasi malay mo after mo maging member dun lang sila mag bibigay ng details na di pwede sa public kumbaga private announcements.

Isa rin ako sa nagihintay ng kumpleto and detalyadong impormasyon tungkol dito. Interesting siya lalo na para sa mga gustong lmawak ang network  pero hindi siya ideal para sa mga small investors kung hindi din naman ganun kahalaga yung benefit na pwede nating makuha dito. 1k is 1k pa rin kahit pa maliit yan sa iba, nkakapanghinayang pa rin kung mapupunta lang sa wala. Sana nga ay mas kumpletong paliwanag tungkol jan at sigurado, mas marami ang magiging interesado kung mas marami pa tayong matututunan at mababanefit sa membership na iyan. Mabuti na rin at may mga ganitong organization, at least marami pa ring open opportunities and nagiintroduct sa crypto adaption dito sa bansa.
