3001  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: From Janitor to Millionaire on: June 12, 2019, 10:28:50 AM
This was on the news this week on our local television. A man named Vito Halasan was won a 7M canadian dollars in a draw. He is already on late 50's and is currently working as a janitor and buy lottery tickets for the hope to have a better life. I dont think that this man is lucky but i consider him blessed. They say that gambling isnt the answer to poverty but this man becomes an exception knowing he deserved to won and i know its really for him.

“I buy lottery tickets so I can dream. I dream of being able to take care of my kids and make their future better. Now we’ll be able to buy a nice house for my children and grandchildren,” -  Vito Halasan

In every rule, there is an exception but we also should not compare his life to us. The universe wants to make him win because of some particular reasons. If you devote your money and time with gambling, you will end up with a life completely opposite to him. Hardwork and dedication is really the key.

Here's the link for complete article:
https://news.mb.com.ph/2019/05/29/filipino-janitor-wins-7-million-jackpot-in-canadian-lottery/

Personally, I am not impressed with this story, i know it is true, But the fact is not everyone has too much luck. Actually, i have listen a lot of stories about lottery, that once a man who bought a lottery and one day he won and become rich. So he is only one man out of millionaire people, and i am sure it is not you and me. That's why i don't like lottery system.

I am sure that he has big luck in that lottery so he can win a lot of money. Many people were jealous of him because they cannot get the same thing as him and I think that will attract other people to tries their luck in the lottery too. I only hope that people will know what they do and don't spend too much money to buy the lottery because the chance to win the jackpot will not be bigger.
No need to be jealous of to that guy mate, we must be thankful enough that a very low class guy won the price and became a millionaire. It's hard to figure out on how it happened, but that's the principle in life that we should look up on. As long there's life there's hope! And I consider that man a real proof of a person which is from rags to riches.

We are not jealous with him, we all are happy to see that he has won, but you know only low class buy these type tickets, up class don't need to buy lottery tickets. And the surprising thing, when he bought ticket he also didn't know that he could win in lottery, But luck bless him and unpredictably he won.
3002  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Want to quit? Here's how on: June 12, 2019, 10:20:15 AM
Quitting is easy if you want to achieve something, but never easy if you want to stop doing what you always do and what you always wanted to do. This is what you called addiction, and we all know that its really hard to over come. Is this the end? Is there any cure? Let me help you.

1.) if you really want to quit, you should WANT it. You should be serious about it and not play around. Most people failed to change because they didnt take quitting seriously.

2.) Have a stone hard mindset. Picture yourself to the person you want to be. The old person who doesnt need that things in order to be happy. Always think about the future results you will become.


3.) Be faithful on what you are doing. Cheating is not an option. Dont be fooled on peer pressure or the callings of slot machine. Learn how to have self dicipline. Focus on your goal and have a blindfold if needed.

4.) If you already strengthen your inner self, the next steps is already easy for you. You see, yourself is the best enemy you have and we should start changing you by the way you think. Next is, have other things to do that can make you busy. Start trading or having new business. You will soon realize that the essense of the money you lost in gambling.

5.) never to try it again. People are also malleable in nature and even you didnt do it for years, once you tasted it again, you will turn back to the same addict person you want to get rid of. We have a deep caravings for it psychologically or what you called cravings by our subconscious minds that once triggered, can never be stopped.

Lastly, give me merits if this tips help you. Nah. Just kidding. I just want to write a book someday and i need some inspiration. Gambling is fun though.

Great suggestions, but you know the big truth is when anyone become addicted, he has no stage to come back. Actually, i never see anyone who come back from addiction. Too many ways to save from addiction, but the addicted man don't want to come, especially in gambling.

I'm also new to cryptocurrencies, but if I should answer this question, I think I will say that everyone needs to do his/her own research before investing any amount of their money to crypto. At least that's what I did.

Happy to know about it that you accept it that people should invest on bitcoin. I always admire the newbie to come on bitcoin field, it is new technology. People should taste the new changing. But before to invest we should search about it, because not everyone handle it. Actually, everyone has different skills that's why before invest on bitcoin we should educate yourself.
3004  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Adoption In Your Country on: June 11, 2019, 07:00:30 AM


This is for members outside of the United States of America since things going in that country are all on the news but for those countries who are usually outside the radar of the mainstream media, I would like to get updates which can be good and bad, favorable and unfavorable with bitcoin. Here in my country, we have no problem with the government as regulatory bodies are not hindering the growth of cryptocurrency and in fact we have many more exchanges already approved and they can start doing business in 2020. Reading the news in other countries, I am feeling lucky to be a resident here.

What about in your own native land...how's bitcoin adoption been going on? Is there a bright future in there or maybe is it facing a gloomy and cloudy prospect? Let's talk...

I am not glad with my government because now a days, my government against the bitcoin, may be government can't handle the bitcoin price. Actually the main reason is our bankers are not happy with bitcoin or crypto currency, they are fully against of it, that's why government is confused with bitcoin. But may be in coming days, situation will be better.   
3005  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for scammers, yea right! on: June 11, 2019, 06:55:12 AM
I am disagree with you, scammer is here but not for bitcoin. When bitcoin was not but still scammers were here. A huge number of the investors are here in bitcoin list, they do trade daily and satisfied with it that everything is fine, including me, i am happy with bitcoin trade and i am not afraid of it that scammers are here. They don't bother us if we know that how to save your bitcoins in our wallets.
3006  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The use of Crypto currencies in our country. on: June 11, 2019, 06:46:28 AM
I wish all the other countries who are making a whole lot of derogatory remarks about cryptocurrencies and its use would see the benefits that the people of Philippines are gaining from it. Cryptocurrency can be used as an accepted medium of payment. All that is really necessary to do is to educate people about it and show them how to use it. Hopefully this would be achieve in future.

It will be happened when all countries's governments accept bitcoin or crypto currency and allow to use it in legally manners. As we know only few countries allow crypto currencies in their countries and a lot of countries ban it because they don't faith on bitcoin or crypto currency, same here in my country, crypto is not allow to use it but people use it and do trade hiddenly.     
3007  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The reason we need cryptocurrencies on: June 11, 2019, 06:41:01 AM
For everyday daily life we need crypto as a daily dose if there's no crypto we are fools now by banks or government by using there fiat currency. I always looking forward the future of crypto as one who changes the world.

Don't blame banks and governments by using the fiat currency. Now bitcoin is come in a few years ago, but fiat is here before you birth, fiat is also necessary for us. But about bitcoin, it is latest technology, that's why we should use it and also use it in our daily life. Every change is good, that's why i rely on it that bitcoin is good change in our social point of view.

101 Proofs For God

A growing list of common sense Proofs for God.

Proof for God, #65 Mitochondrial Eve and Y-Chromosome Adam

 Genetic scientists seem to be in general agreement that we are all descendants of one woman and one man. This research was fairly recent, starting about 1978. They, of course, do not believe in the creation story of Adam and Eve in the Bible, but their conclusions are getting closer and closer.

In case you have not heard about this, it makes very interesting reading. But I think it raises a number of profound challenges to the Theory of Evolution.

The scientists base the above conclusions on the known facts of human reproduction, specifically on properties of the sperm and egg. .....
Full article read here: http://101proofsforgod.blogspot.com/2014/07/65-mitochondial-eve-and-y-chromosome.html


God is here, and i don't think that God need any scientific proof, we should ask our heart then we will get our answer and our questions are here that how make our earth and how make human being and how is the owner of the Universal?
Definitely he is God because He has a huge power and he is one and only, and he is not like us.  

I asked my heart and it told me that you are a faggot, must be true then huh? It also told me your god is fake and the real god is actually a flying spaghetti monster, do you believe me or not?

When we can't find a solution then we should educated ourself, so same situation is here in our faith, we should define ourself what is actually we are?
When we are in childhood, we can't understand high qualifies questions, but when we get education then easily we find it. However, we should get education about our faith then in the end you will find your answers.
But i see in different religious most of the people worship too many Gods, I disagree with it. My point is God is only ONE, . It is same like, in one kingdom has only one King.

Everyone's standard of living is different。Are you satisfied with your current living standard?

When I was student in that time, i was thinking that if i have a lot of money then i will get every thing in my life. But now my thinking has been changed, because now i have money but i have no time to spend with my family, and now i realize without family everyone is poor. We make our life happy with money no doubt in it but also family is important part of our life, So in my eyes,  Happy Family and Money both things make your life complete.

There is always a chance to win in gambling.  If dont take risk to play. You cannot win.  If you're playing lotery you should buy a lot of tickets so that you can a lot of chance to win.the luck is always there.

Exactly, the number is not matter, matter is that how much we bought the tickets in lottery, then our chance is more to win. Same situation is here in gambling, if we have luck then we definitely win in our game, i don't think that some numbers give us luck to win in gambling.

3013  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency In The Gambling Industry: All You Need To Know About Bitcoin on: June 10, 2019, 10:46:28 AM
You are right, but i also have a lot of reasons in my mind about crypto currency popularity in gambling industry, and the main reason, majority gambler want to play without giving their personal information and don't want to show their identity, that's why majority of the gamblers are here in crypto world of these type of gamblers. Otherwise we have discuses a lot of time that crypto currency has a big role on online gambling industry.   
3014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I LOST OVER 10 BTC IN GAMBLING IN 2018 on: June 10, 2019, 10:36:02 AM
Maybe for some gamblers, 10 BTC is small only but for me that is living in a third world country that amount is very huge already.

Anyway, I feel sorry for your lost but there is a problem with you. You know that you are losing a lot of money and yet you chose to gamble all of your bitcoins. Gamblers must know how to control themselves especially when they are losing money consecutive times.

You should never feel sorry, even i realize he has no sad feeling of his biggest loss of 10 bitcoins in this thread. So why we feel sad on his loss. Also if he was a good gambler then he must careful about his money, But he was not. However, it is his loss, and may be he has a lot of bitcoins, that's why he has no sorry of his big loss.
3015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can i start a game here in the forum? on: June 10, 2019, 10:30:21 AM
As stated in the title, is it possible to run a game here in forum?
Here is the idea, let's take the example of Noona and Mismar (they are my turtles), if i can publish a live video (in youtube for example) of the tortules competing in a course for many times and offer bets for users here in a live thread by the help of one of the known escrows here, as we see in auctions or ruffles. (is this against forum rules?)
This may look dumb for many of you because i don't take it seriously so i can't explain it well.
I want to know if this is possible here in btc forum or not. And if anyone can suggest more ideas on how to realize this.

Sorry for the bad english.

Yeah, you can, you can see most of the membera accept it that you can do it. People like all sort of games, then why not we like it, However, you should start your thread, and see the result i have great hopes for you, and i am curious to see you turtles.   
3016  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling.. way to loss on: June 10, 2019, 10:22:53 AM
you should play becuse its fun not to make you rich or anything, gambling is a way to have a fun activity that can earn you money or lose ou money, but its all about having fun with money on the line to make it more exciting.
Sometime you need to get a target when you play gambling, if you rely on that gambling is just for fun only you will be addicted soon. When you play gambling you need a money then where do you get money for gambling?You can't continue to spend money just to gamble without you earning an income. An honesty, I once thought that gambling was only limited to luck so I just played around without paying attention to a start or something else that could make me get the bet. I did it a few times until I realized I had spent a lot of money doing it, until finally I thought that gambling is not about lucky, I can get a bet with the strategy that I have.
Yes the gambling games needs strategy at least we must have management of money in gambling games, so we have knew when we stop playing gambling games or keeps continue. That's my strategy of gambling games and it was worked so i don't blame gambling games because i have lost my money in gambling and i don't think that gambling games is way to lost my money because on trading alternatives coins we still can lost our money in it.
Strategy not just to win but also to save money from gambling, so you wont think that this is just a way to lose money. Trading is an alternative that works like a gambling where you need to study or else you will lose. If you just want to have fun on gambling, then its fine to lose money.

I always say strategy work in these games where definitely games need strategy, otherwise, strategy is not working in few games. But the truth is, if we have loss in our luck then definitely we will be get it, and our strategy has no mean in front of our luck, and in gambling we must need luck.   
3017  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does your country knows about cock fighting betting? on: June 09, 2019, 08:05:47 AM
Yes, In philippines I think it's not illegal to fight a cock,  here in my place I have seen a cock fight maybe a year ago but I never tried to bet on cock fight gambling but I have many friends that put a bet on cock fight they are so happy when they won on betting a cock fight.

It meant, it is popular betting in your city, then you much play it and try your luck. But i see only in few countries, cock fight is on betting. Otherwise majority of people don't know about cock fighting. Can you believe it that i never see cock fight in my whole life.
3018  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why not play games online instead of gambling? on: June 09, 2019, 08:02:04 AM
Yeh I also agree on it if people wants to entertain their selves then they can also do some online games instead of being addicted on gambling. It is much more funfor me and vvery interesting but I guess some people are much more preferred on gambling since they want more exciting and much challenging.

Online gambling is benefit to quit the addiction of gambling. Games are suit of every type of gamblers, but it is not giving us thrills and exciting to win money in games. However if we wanna save our money to loss then online games are better for us instead of gambling. Otherwise if we have a lot of money then gambling is much better than online games. 
3019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling frustration and depression on: June 09, 2019, 07:51:35 AM

This is not a drunk gambler for sure, he might suffering from a frustration and maybe a depression for losing money.

Gambling is not supposed to make you look like this because it supposed to make you happy.
If you feel any depression right now because of the money that you've lost better to quit gambling, and seek for some help. That pictures speaks a lot, so start waking up now.

Do you ever feel this before because you didn't achieve your goal and you lose all your savings because of greediness?


Agreed, I agree with you, because gambling is risky and not everyone has skills to handle it. When we have lose our money and if we earn our money with full of hard and suddenly we lose it in gambling, then i have no words to explain about our losing feeling. I call it feeling frustration and depression.  Hence gambling is not safe place where we use our saving money or expenses, if we play gambling with our limit then gambling is not bad for us. 
3020  Economy / Economics / Re: How to prevent fraud? on: June 08, 2019, 06:48:51 PM
Probably we have no choice but to wait for the arrival of full or at least partial regulation, as well as to take part only in the IEO, and ICO will temporarily bypass projects.

Currently IEO are gaining popularity and are giving good profits but we should not invest blindly in ieo and should study the project first before investing. We should only invest in IEO which are on top exchanges like binance etc.  IEO at small exchanges are still risky to invest in.
