I don't have any children yet, but in the future, if I already have children, I don't really wanna limit them to what they want to do, for sure if they are still kids I wouldn't allow them to gamble at all at any time, because I believed that if they are exposed to this kind of things they might develop some kind of habit when they grow up that might not be the best for them. But probably at the right age around when they are already in high school, I think they could probably already decide for themselves self, for sure it might not be the best thing to let them do but for me, it's better to let them develop their financial management allowing them to save on their own, I would just give them enough money for them like in a week and then he could budget it on there own if he wanted to gamble it he can but I wouldn't support it financially. I just want him to realize that it is not easy to earn money, I do multiple jobs and side hustle and I can say that earning money is very difficult.

Probably gonna take some profit rin pero ang goal ko pa rin ay long term kaya hindi siguro ako magbebenta kahit 80k or 90k probably kapag lumagpas ng 100k ay malaki ang chance na magbenta ako pero not sure pa rin naman dahil hindi ko naman kailangan pa ng pera, I was aiming sana na pangbili ko ito ng lupa pero kahit ibenta ko naman ito ngayo ay hindi pa ito magiging sapat kaya hindi ko pa balak ibenta, so far Dollar Cost Averaging pa rin naman ang ginagawa ko investing every week, kaya lumalaki at lumalaki pa rin ang investment ko sa Bitcoin so for sure darating ang araw na lalaki pa ito to the point na kapag benenta ko ang Bitcoin ko ay makakabili agad ako ng lupa or house.

Still im expecting pa rin ng isang malaking drop, this usually happened like sa mga nakaraang halving kapag malapit na ang halving tumataas talaga ang hype ng market, pero pagdating ng halving ay hindi na masyadong malaki ang price neto medjo nakakatempt lang din talaga kahit na wala akong balak magbenta pero nakikita ko ang profit ko ngayon na sobrang laki natetempt ako minsan na what if ibenta ko na then buyback na lang.

Money yes is never really enough, I mean even though you have a huge amount of money already it is never really going to be enough for you, and for sure you are never really going to be satisfied with it it is just going to feel that it is not enough, It is probably because we are human and we have desires that is never-ending. It doesnt really mean that money is not important, it is actually one of the most important parts because you can do anything with money, you need money to survive, to buy what you want, etc.

It is still very important to be financially literate especially because money is a very important thing, In my experience having the financial mindset is the best thing and changes my way of living, having that we could surely gonna be able to achieve financial freedom at least, I mean it is still better to have financial freedom even though money is never gonna be enough other than being poor and having the poor man mindset, spending things that they can't really afford, not saving and not investing for there future.

I mean for sure sometimes, If I win a huge amount in a bet I mostly treat my friends as well, it just feels good to do it most of the time, especially with your friends knowing that you win a huge amount.

But it wasn't for sure the case most of the time, because there was some part of it that you needed to save at least because it is just profit for sure, I mean personally if I win a huge amount of gambling I usually just buy something that I really wanted to buy for a long time, basically, I become an impulsive buyer every time I win huge just to feel better, In my mind I did win that money really easily so it's gonna be easy as well to spend it at least on something that is going to make me happy. Compared to something like Bitcoin or cryptocurrency investment that I've been holding for a long time it's going to be difficult for me to spend it on something, I'll probably go to spend it on something like an asset probably real estate not just on some wants.

There are also some chances that you become a generous gambler because you just feel alone, for most people that don't really have some kind of real friends they just want all the love and end up treating a lot of their friends. I remember a Bitcoin hacker who is already a Billionaire his just living alone mostly treated his friends go to a bar and everything he just felt so lonely and wanted someone to love him so he ended up treating and giving money to his friends most of the time, in the end his friend stole his Bitcoin and cash on his house, ends up getting discovered by FBI as a Bitcoin hacker related to silk road.

In my opinion, when it comes to Bitcoin the main thing is always on long-term investment from 17k to 22k wasn't really going to be a huge profit for sure, but looking at the market price today at 60k$ I think is already a decent profit for sure, imagine if you sold your Bitcoin at 22k it's probably not going to be a lose since you still earn profit in the end, but you just lose a huge opportunity to earn a huge profit.

For me when you buy Bitcoin the strategy is always going to be long-term, because it just minimizes the risk of the investment, and could give you a high chance of earning a huge amount of profit in the future with a lower risk. Still, it is still going to depend on what is your perspective on the market I mean as we can see the price continues to skyrocket, It is probably not ideal to buy more Bitcoin since a lot of investors are getting greedy at this time in the market that could result to a huge lose for them, Personally, I wouldn't really want for the price to skyrocket yet since if drop happened I could easily see it as an opportunity to buyback.

Most likely you should do the opposite since the market price is rising at this time you shouldn't really do some kind of big buy in my opinion because most likely when the market price continues to rise it is going to be a huge bubble, in the end, it is going to result for sure to a huge drop when it finally hits its limit, worst case scenario you're going to lose a huge amount of money due to the drop since your exporting for the market price to continue to skyrocket.

Still, it's not really going to be a bad thing to invest at this time, I mean you might probably make a profit as well, but investing at this time is going to be very risky compared when you are investing when the market price is around 20k$ - 25k$, that just means there will be a huge room for profit and the risk is much lower compared when investing right now around 60k$, when we hit the All time high there will be no guarantee at all that the market is just gonna continue to increases its price. The market is just so unpredictable the best thing to do right now is hold or continue doing DCA if your accumulating already.

I get your point for sure, I mean the main thing for me when I'm gambling is it is mainly just for entertainment but for sure I'll be lying if I'm not hoping to at least win even though it wasn't really my main goal. I'm not really expecting anything for sure in return, before even started to bet I already knew in myself that I lose that money that I was going to gamble and bet.

Probably the main thing in gambling is money and as well as emotion if you're doing it for money and you can't control your emotions on gambling that is probably going to be a problem for you in the long run since you are for sure going to lose some money on it. As long as you have control over this thing it's probably going to be might, control of your money is very important if you doesnt have control over it you didn't set any limit on your gambling you probably always end up losing a huge amount of it. If you dont control your emotions as well it could easily end up the same loss again, frustration and pressure for sure could easily drive you to make wrong decisions.

My take here personally is, Dont gamble or gamble occasionally, it's going to be difficult to follow this kind of thing so the best thing to do is not gamble at all, remove the easy money mindset on your mind, treat gambling as entertainment only, and enjoy it.

Bitcoin is still a new thing even though it is already running for years some people still doesnt know it for them it's still a new thing, and even in the market, there is no proof or any guarantee that the market is going to sustain its value because it is just a digital asset there was no some kind of backup or any kind of value when it comes to tangible assets. The Market is just driven by the supply and demand of the market, other than that there was no other value to it, I mean we still know people who don't trust Bitcoin because of it, even though they are already successful people. And we know how risky investment in cryptocurrency is even though we invest our money on it and witness it skyrocket its market price.

I think we just need some time for the cryptocurrency and Bitcoin to adopt in our countries and a lot of business, I mean I could already see a lot of companies going and promoting cryptocurrencies on there platform, there are some banks here in my country and also support cryptocurrency allowing there users to buy and sell cryptocurrency with that, it could easily help for some users to trust and understand Bitcoin more.

I mean both probably are not going to be recommended for sure, drugs are prohibited in many countries taking that is gonna be an even bigger risk than just gambling so its already out of the equation, your probably gonna be high in that time thinking that it is better since your not gonna get carried away with your emotion, but it's still kinda the same but probably a much higher risk since your gonna do some aggressive bets probably its gonna be a even huge lose compared if your not high, Its still gonna end up on luck for sure, even with half sleep it is useful I guess on some cases to have a full sleep since there are for sure a lot of games that gonna need some skills, if your not gonna have focus because of half sleep that could easily be a problem.

Still, we're kind of getting the wrong idea since your friend probably just gambling for a source of income which is for sure kinda wrong, he might not admit it but in my perspective, he's already a gambling addict, I mean doing drugs? just gambling that is just some high-level stuff that you're not gonna think about if you're just a regular gambler who is just gambling for entertainment. I would never think to do drugs just to be high in order to increase my winning on gambling.

I mean you have a point actually, it is already happening here in my country in the Philippines if you are aware of the West Philippines Sea and Scarborough Shoal, if we are going to look at the conflict here it's kinda obvious what was the motive here since this part of the seas is full of resources. To be honest it's kinda scary sometimes knowing that at any moment there are always chances that a war might start in your own country.

I've already thought about it, the thing is it is always great to have a backup plan just in case because in case the war actually starts its we are kinda unlucky about it, the backup plan, in my opinion, is having dual citizenship on some other country that be safer compared the country that you are living in, in case of emergency you could always go to the other country.

Money is always a thing here since it's going to be expensive to have that kind of plan, having other citizens also needed some kind of connection, so for most of the people they can't really do anything about it, I mean its not like we have a choice something like that because we can't really pick what country you want to be born in.

Any proof? I mean don't expect the members here to easily believe what you said here in the forum, just looking at your account it is just newly made so you don't really have any kind of credibility to make some kind of claim unless you're gonna show us some proof that you actually did make some kind of money just by founding an exploit on a casino. Tell us what casino you did it, are you able to cash out?

I know people who actually able to win a huge amount of money on a gambling website it wasn't gambling that involved cryptocurrency, it was just some kind of gambling website that used an E-wallet, If I'm not mistaken it became trending because at that point the casino was really popular on Facebook then, end up winning almost 200k$ on the casino, but in the end, he encounter some issue on the casino when he reported it his account got banned which is really unfair, he has a recording of how he win that kind of money but the casino banned him and just say that it is a some kind of bug.

Personally, I dont really think that we are going to see an all-time high this year, my bullrun prediction is next year to 2026, that is probably when we are going to see more than 100k$ in my opinion but for sure there are some chances that we might already break or right the all-time high next year, There was going to be a huge drop again in my opinion as we are getting near the Bitcoin Halving event I mean we could already see how the movement of the market is slowing down the upside trend cannot keep up anymore in my opinion, for sure there are still a lot of people that is going to be encouraged to invest or put their money on Bitcoin because the market price just continues to skyrocket but you might wanna think again about that.

Still, the market is just unpredictable, personally, I dont really expect for Bitcoin market price to skyrocket up to 50k$ but I guess the hype was just high already considering there are a lot of great Bitcoin news including the ETFs. For sure that could easily boost the movement in the market, still, I'm waiting for a huge correction or drop, in my opinion, it is still going to happen soon because the market is just on an uptrend in the past month we dont really see any correction yet, so probably a lot of investors and traders are already expecting this as a huge bubble.

Di ko rin sigurado kung bakit Bitcoin Cash ang ginagamit nila, pero siguro mga supporters sila ng Bitcoin Cash matagal na, pero sa ngayon kase halos wala talagang gamit itong Bitcoin Cash good thing lang na galing siya sa Bitcoin, and probably siguro dahil Bitcoin din naman ang pangalan at some point napopromote din ang Bitcoin kahit magkaiba talaga sila.

Since custodial wallet naman ang gamit nila so no problem na naman sila pagdating sa mga fees so di ko lang makita kung bakit hindi Bitcoin ang ginamit nila or kaya naman kahit stable coin siguro like USDT pwede na rin, ang pinaka disadvantage lang talaga dito ay ang wallet dahil kung di ka siguro gagamit ng wallet nila ay hindi ka makakapagtransact sa vending machinge nila, i guess kapag galing nga naman sa labas ang transaction like Bitcoin magbabayad ka talaga ng fees, I dont know if sa wallet lang ba nila dapat nangyayari ang transaction or pwede kang magsend galing sa ibang wallet, kung ganun kase ang process ay malaki rin ang fees in the end.

Pero gusto ko ang koncept na ito dahil possible talaga siya in the future, imagine ang mga vendine machines naten in the future pwede kang magbayad gamit ang Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency magandang way siya to adopt ang cryptocurrency dito sa ating bansa.

Play Blackjack most of the time, I mean, I just feel I'm lucky at it or I can observe that I win more in this kind of game, the rules are very simple so it was easy for me to understand so the winning would totally depend on luck, It's for sure better than useless games in some casino that can easily be rig by the developers, I mean you're not really sure if there are actually players playing to games like slots, crash, etc. I'm not saying that it was a scam game but a card game for sure is better since it is playing live.

I love sports betting as well, betting on NBA games was also my favorite, small bets like 20$ possible wins could be 60$ on single bets, sometimes I could easily earn up to 400$ on this kind of bet on NBA games, recently I was betting on Denver Nuggets and Golden State Warriors games it was kinda fun and entertaining for me since I'm already a fan of NBA and I love watching it, I kinda know most of the player so, I kinda know in my observation what team have high chance of winning probably, or maybe I'm just really lucky, As a fan its probably gives more exiting as well if you gamble sometimes.

It is still going to depend on how you handle your finances, lifestyle, and probably your salary as well. I mean there are really salaries that are not going to be enough for sure if you're just going to maintain one source of income you could probably survive with that, but I would bet that no one here is actually working full-time just to survive, but instead live a kinda luxurious life as well, something where we could probably buy at least what we wanted most of the time not just to buy something that we need.

Personally, here in my country, it is probably going to be difficult if you only have one source of income, I mean depending on your salary if you're on a senior level probably with a salary of about 1000$ it is probably going to be enough at least for the most part with only one source of income, but if you only get minimum wage salary that is going to be difficult to do that, not to mention some other problem, I have a friend that is earning a kinda great salary and only one source of income, the pay was actually good and even compared to my salary it was almost double that but still wasn't enough because he is a breadwinner on their family, he's the only one working that has a decent pay, he's a parent is not working anymore so it's really difficult on his position to still buy things that he really wanted.

That is probably one of the magic of Bitcoin getting that kind of return is really insane compared to other tangible investments like gold and real estate, Still, it is a risky investment because compared to the two Bitcoin is just a new thing that there was no proof of income on it, so there was no guarantee that Bitcoin investment is going to be profitable in the future, we dont really know if Bitcoin is still going to exist in the coming years, is it going to still exist after 5 years? plus the market is just so volatile, that something could easily come up and affect the market price, what happens if a pandemic hits? what would happen if war hit? or a zombie apocalypse how is it going to affect the market of Bitcoin, it's kind of difficult to predict that because it also wasn't a tangible asset like real estate.

Gold for sure is one the best investment out there but there is just one big problem with it the supply of it, we just doesnt know the supply of gold, I mean there could be so much gold here on earth that we dont know, and that might affect the price of gold in the market.

Real estate, in my opinion, is still going to be the end game, personally, I would still end up buying real estate because it is probably the safest investment or asset that I could make, but I would still buy Bitcoin for sure it already a no brainer for sure with that kind of potential income there was no way that I'm not going to HODL Bitcoin for long term investments, but after getting that profit the main going is going to be real estate just to take the risk in that money and put it on something that is gonna give me guaranteed income.

It would surely just gonna depend on the reason of the holder but there are sure many different reasons behind it, but I would probably say that a high percentage of those people are doing it for profit or money.

I mean there are people that doesnt have any plans on selling their Bitcoin until they die which is almost similar to religion at some point, maybe like Bitcoin believers, but if they dont want to take profit from it, that just means that they dont want the money on it, probably status, standards, etc. Since having or holding a huge amount of Bitcoin could be a title probably.

I have some friends who don't have any plan on selling their Bitcoin investment just because they are going to use it as an inheritance for their kids or something like that which I think is going to make more sense.

Personally, I'm holding Bitcoin just as an investment to make a profit, so I keep on accumulating Bitcoin, probably going to sell if there is a good opportunity in the market, after selling and making a huge profit from it, just going to repeat that cycle again probably buyback when the market is down again to create more and more profit on it. I dont really see Bitcoin as a digital currency at this moment since the market is just volatile it's not really fit right now, but I think it's fit as an investment, and for sure a lot of people are doing it because of that reason as well, but in the end there was no right or wrong about it it is still going to depend on you how you're going to see buying Bitcoin on your perspective.

Gambling surely destroys his thinking already, I mean after losing a business he's already thinking of gambling and thinking that he might win just to expand his business without even thinking about the risk of it.

Its surely not that easy to recover from the loss of a business for sure it was a decent amount of money that is lost just because of gambling, he just got the wrong mindset thinking of a possible shortcut on how he could earn a huge amount of money in just a short amount of time which is risky and wrong when starting a business, yet alone involving gambling on starting a business that doesnt really going to make any sense. You could totally start a good business with 1000$ but it just gonna take a lot of effort as long as you are not lazy and doing the work there is a very low chance that your business is gonna fail for sure, but this guy is already thinking of gambling that just means that is wanted to take a shortcut and risk everything again, it just not going to work.

Probably isa na rin sa pinakamadali lalo na if wala naman talaga tayong malaking pera na panginvest pa sa cryptocurrency o Bitcoin, if mayroon tayong pera pwd siguro tayong mag buy low sa market then hold na lang for long term investment, pero kung iisipin masmalaki ang risk ng ganoong strategy dahil sa specific price ka lang bumili so kapag hindi tumaas sa price na yun ang market pwedeng maipit ang funds lalo na kung hindi mo kayang ihold ng long term.

Ang pinakamagandang gawin talaga ay DCA dahil kahit wala kang funds na panginvest sa cryptocurrency o Bitcoin ay pwedeng pwede mo pa rin itong gamitin dahil maaari kang makaacumulate ng malaking funds overtime kung consistent ka magaacumulate like kahit naman 1000pesos lang per week o per month over time dahil volatile ang market ng Bitcoin taas ang value, to be honest nagulat din ako sa naacumulate ko lalo ng tumaas ang presyo ng Bitcoin sa 50k$ talagang di ko akalain na sa pagsave ko ng pera at ginagamit ko ito pambili ng Bitcoin ay malaki na rin pala ang naacumulate ko, isa pa masmadali mong malolong term ang investment mo dahil dito as long as mayroon ka na mang financial foundation o hindi ka lang umaasa sa cryptocurrency bilang source of income mo makakaya mong magsurvive na hindi galawin ang cryptocurrency investments mo.

I mean that is probably how we should do it right, gambling only the amount that you can afford to lose is probably the best strategy to control your gambling, one of the things that you need to avoid on gambling is your emotion if you're gonna get carried away by your emotions that is the time your gonna lose huge amount of money, probably you're going to still continue even though you are already at your set limit on gambling because your getting frustrated and wanted to win.

That is just probably what you wanted to avoid, but as long as you are gambling a set amount of money that you can afford to lose, it's not going to be a bigger problem in the long run, yes you might lose your bet right if you're not lucky. But then you could just try again some other time the next time you recover that lost funds, I mean if you're gonna set 100$ on gambling it wasn't that big of money since we could say that next month you probably gonna get your salary, for example, 1000$, you could easily recover from that lose. The bottom line is you not gonna get a bigger problem in the end as long as you only gamble the amount the you afford to lose.
