Do not take profits soon, wait for it to reach atleast $130k price range and then you can start taking profit. I mean it's not a surety that it will reach that price amount which I have mentioned but I truely hope it will go way above that. Not today, not this month but surely one day. Just HODL it and do not look out for taking profit just before Bitcoin Halving. Prices will never be same here and you will miss holding BTC worth your current average.
It's very important to remain patient and not get caught up in short-term price fluctuation when investing in Bitcoin. What really matters in Bitcoin Investment is the long-term results, because you can only reap the actual benefits of Bitcoin when you go long-term, that way you'll not only be gaining the full benefits but also saving yourself from the trauma and heartache of dips and Bitcoin's dramatic trends.
Therefore, everyone who decides to invest must continue to learn about their investments in order to be able to properly carry out the investments they make. For those who really understand it well, we will continue to hold back in the long term the profits from these investments and will not affected by falling prices, but if they see prices are low they will certainly take advantage to be able to collect an amount that they can afford to hold in the long term in order to make a profit.
The market is always changing, and new information is always coming out that can affect the value of investments. Being able to stay on top of this information and make informed decisions is really important, because if you fail to equip yourself with the required knowledge and information, you might end up making decisions that'll end up affecting your investment or putting your assets in jeopardy.

People say that they don't know what is the btc and there is no clear story for them to trust btc.
But the same people don't know what is the money and how it's created and they are collateral or some type of security body by themselfes.
For the first time I know what's bitcoin I did not believe what's bitcoin until I began to understand that bitcoin is not a scam and it can be trusted, sometimes we have to invest in bitcoin and remove our eye on it, specially when we are on long-term investment, because it's obvious that cryptocurrency is all about understanding, many people have to millionaires and billionaire through bitcoin immediately they remove fear in cryptocurrency in question, we have to know such, you can make money through bitcoin when you research of bitcoin and it's investment.
It's true that many people have to overcome their initial skepticism and fear to really understand the value of bitcoin and see its potential as an investment. And for those who do take the time to learn about it and invest, there is the potential to make a lot of money. But with that potential comes risk, and not everyone will be successful. And this is the exact reason why it's advised for people who are interested in Bitcoin to first learn about it and equip themselves with the required knowledge about Bitcoin to avoid making rational and ignorant mistakes that'll cost you your funds, mistakes that would've been easily avoided if only you took time to study about Bitcoin and the best investment technique to employ.

Every investment will be successful, if the investment is long-term. Almost every Bitcoin investor thinks and hopes that Bitcoin will soon reach new highs and it will be above 100k. Bitcoin price is currently on an growth. Currently, the movement of Bitcoin price increase proves that Bitcoin will definitely succeed. In order to achieve only good, Bitcoin must be held for a long time. So just hold long time, and keep biggest profit.

Not every investments is successful when they're long term, some investment are meant for short term because they're just hyped projects and doesn't have any strong useable abilities of the project. Only Bitcoin can be said to be a long term investment because of history and how Bitcoin was built. Bitcoin price hasn't reached it's highest potential and it still has many room for growth, the price of Bitcoin will keep growing everyday because of the adoptions of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is going to be bigger than it's currently,  because many people are beginning to understand the concept of Bitcoin. More rich people's are begining to see how important Bitcoin is good to be to the future economy and they're investing in Bitcoin while we're here doubting the success of Bitcoin and we'll miss out.

Indeed, majority of the Altcoins are designed to provide short-term gains. I always advice investors who are looking for short-term gain to focus more on altcoins because Investing in Bitcoin with the intention of making quick gain might make you incur unimaginable losses for yourself because Bitcoin isnt like every other tokens, to really reap the actual benefits of Bitcoin would be to buy and HODL for as long as you can, that way you'll also be saving yourself the emotional stress that comes with dips and other dramatic trends following the market

Bukele is a great president, he changed El Salvador by reducing criminal rates, reducing unemployment rates, increase the GDP rate, and brave enough to accept Bitcoin as legal tender despite many retired people complaining about Bitcoin.

We can learn from Bukele, but remember with our current conditions.

Bukele is investing in Bitcoin using El Salvador's remaining money, so if you (everyone) don't have enough money and you're still struggle to fill your monthly needs, don't be stupid to use that money to buy Bitcoin. Wink
In terms of personality, steadfastness and confidence, Bukele needs to be given a thumbs up. He showed his entire existence to the world that Bitcoin was not just empty talk but by proving that his country system was listed as a country that was harvesting wealth. It is not easy to instill a stance like this, especially since Bukele is the leader of a country and he is risking his citizens in one decision to take Bitcoin. At least we as individuals who also have a few sats must have more confidence because even if we experience losses it will not be as severe as El Salvador. But I don't think that will happen. I believe that this year is entering a super mega Bullish market.
Indeed, Bukele really took a risk by embracing bitcoin, but he was confident in his decision and is now reaping the benefits. You're right that individuals who have invested in bitcoin should also have confidence in its potential. However, it's important to remember that investing in bitcoin comes with risks, and no one should invest more than they can afford to lose. And it's also very important to realize that you should acquire all the necessary knowledge and information about Bitcoin before going to invest, else you may just end up choosing the wrong Investment approach which mostly results to losing your money or even worse.
346  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why inflated countries should adopt Bitcoin to help boost their economy. on: February 29, 2024, 02:39:19 PM
I think African countries should adopt the use of crypto currencies to help boost their economy more. Rather than fighting against the use of bitcoin.

 It is a great privilege to experience the explicit and dynamics of the currency innovation in our local and global markets, transaction platforms and businesses in the day to day life. In one word bitcoin is "REVOLUTIONAL".
You're right, African countries have been rather slow when it comes to bitcoin adoption, Bitcoin adoption in Africa could turn the state of the continue around. Many African countries are dealing with hyperinflation and other economic issues and there's no doubt that Bitcoin adoption could provide a much better alternative to the failing traditional financial system in the country.
347  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it too advanced to get into Bitcoin now? on: February 29, 2024, 02:28:07 PM
Cryptocurrency prices have increased by 118% compared to last year. Similarly, prices are increasing by almost 83% in the last 04 months.The dramatic history price of Bitcoin peaks and the recent buzz around its upcoming "halving" its only fair to pose the most obvious question in front of us that-
Did the Bitcoin flight already leave investors? or is there still time to buy a ticket?

The attractions of Bitcoin investments has always been double the potential for significant returns and its suggested role as digital gold.Historically Bitcoin has rewarded the bold to investors. For the next "halving" currently on track for April, another bull run seems highly likely. Recent price gains although this potential wave should take Bitcoin to a whole other level as it did after the May 2020, July 2016 and November 2012.

As far as Bitcoin has not reached it ATH, the opportunities are still open for anyone to embrace, Bitcoin increase is still at it early stage despite the recent appreciation in price, it only a novice that will say that buying now doesn't make sense, last week the movement of bitcoin was between 50k-51k but now we can see that there is an upwards increase which we never know the next price, so it is better to buy now than to keep spectating, spectators are always discouraged because of their eagerness to always work with any available information which is bad, to me the best thing to do as an investor that's is ready is weighing options and doing the needful before regretting your actions.
True, there is no way to predict or time the future price of bitcoin, therefore attempting to do so is always risky. The "buy the dip" technique you proposed can be a smart way to capitalize on opportunities when the price of bitcoin is low, but keep in mind that there is always the danger of losing money when it comes to buying during a dip, but you can never know if it's the lowest it can go or if it will go even lower, so it's important to expect anything and everything no matter the technique you choose to employ when investing.
348  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If everyone is holding their bitcoin, will there be a balance? on: February 29, 2024, 02:14:37 PM
That is not a dumb question at all! In reality, it's an extremely important subject to explore, particularly as bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies gain popularity. If everyone holds on to their bitcoin and does not sell it, the value of bitcoin may fall gradually. This is because the demand for bitcoin would be reduced, and fewer individuals would be prepared to pay a higher price for it. It is possible that miners will not find it profitable to continue mining, which could have an influence on the overall stability of the bitcoin network. So, while holding onto bitcoin may appear to be an effective strategy for Bitcoin Investment, it is important to examine the possible repercussions. This is something that could potentially have a big impact on the bitcoin ecosystem, so it's definitely something to keep in mind.

It's true that gambling can be done responsibly as long as the person in question has a great level of self-control. But the question should be, is the level of self-control control common amongst most gamblers or are some gamblers just prone to addiction and they might not be able to have that level of self control, no matter how hard they try to acquire it?
All gamblers have their self-control but because many of them gamble for too long which makes their self-control decrease. That makes many gamblers losing their self-control which they must take care when they playing gambling. They forget to always have self-control but after losing streak or win some money, their self-control decrease and that can give a chance for their greedy to increase. That makes them continue playing gambling instead to stop their gambling activity because they already playing gambling for some times. That's the times for them to losing their money and if they don't realizes what happen to them, they will lose all of their money. Once they lose all of their money, that will not easy to recover their lost.
You have a nice psychology behind gambling addiction. We can all agree that there's a lot of  factors at play here, like the length of time someone spends gambling, the decrease in self control over time, and the increased sense of greed and also the desire to win more money.
It's more of a downward spiral, when people get caught up in thia cycle of chasing wins and losing money in the process, and then it becomes harder and harder to break free from it.

.
Many people experience big losses because they are not aware that the chances of winning are so slim, so that by not realizing it, they experience big, serious and long-term problems. The fact is that gambling companies will win more often because their goal in holding or establishing casinos is to be able to seek profits from many people, so they will not give wins to everyone, especially often, because that is not their goal, and on the contrary, they will lose. It is clear that gamblers find it more often because the goal of gambling is to seek profits from many people, so with the large number of people who gamble in the casino, there is a greater possibility that they will experience losses, perhaps compared to the number of gamblers who experience losses in every gambling game, it is 97%. an, and 3% are those who win. Therefore, the thing that must be emphasized is that the chance of winning is so slim that it cannot be changed. indeed we should be able to gamble with money that we are willing to lose, because if they are not prepared for the money they are betting on it can trigger them to become addicted to gambling and of course this must be avoided or prevented, it is true what you said, there are limits. is one of the things that can be done to avoid excessive addiction. because there have been many cases of the bad effects of being addicted to gambling, and I hope that with this many cases it can be a lesson for us not to overdo it when gambling.
I'll say those are quite an eye-opening statistics you got there. Indeed the odds are really staked against the gamblers, and the individuals that run the casinos are really the ones who are truly benefiting from the all the gambling activities in the end. This also explains why casinos are often seen as the house of cards, they are designed to give the general public the illusion that winning is very easy and that the chances of winning are more than that of losing, while in reality it's quite the opposite, the vast majority of people who gamble there will end up losing. With this in mind, it's preposterous how people often get addicted to gambling, it's almost like they're all chasing a mirage.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: February 29, 2024, 08:59:24 AM
If you want to gamble every day, you have to allocate a budget every day, which will not be possible for everyone because almost everyone has a limited income, so gambling will not be possible after meeting the family expenses with this limited income. Because gambling will not always win anyone. The amount of loss in gambling is very high, so no matter how expert one is, he cannot continue to gamble every day. And if he does, he will be completely ruined financially. So one should never gamble daily.  If he cannot afford to accept that loss
There are logic in your point because most of the person situation kind of same as you saying on your post. So in this case that will be never be better if anyone do gambling everyday on the others hand it can be bring a disaster situation in his life. But those person who have ability to make a minimum fund for gambling in everyday those can do if they want. But I will say that playing gambling everyday can become a addiction and addiction never be a better things
Absolutely, addiction is never a good thing, and gambling addiction is especially tough to overcome. Even if someone can restrict how much money they spend on gambling, there is always the question of how much time and mental energy they devote to it. And I believe that's where a lot of the actual issues arise: when individuals start ignoring other aspects of their lives, such as relationships, employment, and personal well-being. So, even if someone manages to keep their gambling budget under check, they may still be harming themselves in other ways.
Actually its not really that bad to gamble, the only bad thing comes only on the time that you would really be making yourself that getting addicted to it. I've known some friends or close to me who had been gambling and doing it for long years already but it seems that they arent that been affected in terms of financial.Why is that? because they are really that responsible on the actions that they are taking.
They dont really be able to wreck up their finances and this is how gamblers should really be having this kind of approach on things on which they do have that kind of control and this is something
that those gamblers should really be taking into. Gambling in everyday isnt bad as long you do have the control and this is something that had been proved out already.
It is really just that there are people who are really that impulsive and ended up on having no control with their gambling activity.
It's true that gambling can be done responsibly as long as the person in question has a great level of self-control. But the question should be, is the level of self-control control common amongst most gamblers or are some gamblers just prone to addiction and they might not be able to have that level of self control, no matter how hard they try to acquire it?

My question is do you think gambling every day is better? From his reasoning and points of narrations.

Your friend might be onto something if he's tried this method successfully without becoming addicted. However, gambling daily isn't advisable for a responsible gambler, as it can develop into a bad habit and lead to addiction. There's no guarantee of increased winning chances by playing every day, but you might gain more insights into how the games work. Yet, the risk is becoming addicted and relying too much on gambling for income. To avoid the pitfalls of addiction and financial losses, responsible gamblers should steer clear of such frequent gambling. It will make more sense to focus on the potential negative outcomes rather than emphasizing the positives side of this method.
You're right when you say practicing a game might give a player more insight about how it works. But it won't necessarily give the player any greater advantage over the house because anything can still happen. It's really not how much a person knows about a game, but more of their ability to control their behavior and avoid the Falling into the traps of addiction.

Once a gambler already experienced the winning moment some of them want to test out where their luck will bring them, so the reason why most of them keep playing even every day, but too much gambling is like are putting the gambling part of your daily routine or habit and once your muscle memory already program with this, possible might bring you into an addiction, if your friend still have the chance to control themselves in playing gambling and become responsible do as possible, some people would like to give up their gambling addiction, its not only affect you but to your financial and people surrounded by you.
Indeed, gambling can become a real addiction and can have negative impacts on all aspects of someone's life. Even if someone starts out just gambling for fun, the addictive nature of gambling can quickly lead to serious problems. And you're right that it's not just about the financial aspect, but it can also affect relationships and cause emotional distress. there are many effective ways to help people overcome a gambling addiction,  is it may appear too difficult, but with time, if you are consistent towards fighting it.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do people truly risk their money on bets for profit? on: February 28, 2024, 05:00:33 PM
I came across a recent topic where the op was saying over 80% of gamblers gamble to make money and I had to have a dip thought on that and was curious as to know if there are possibilities that people gamble just for the sake of answering the name gambler?
Nearly eighty percentage of the gamblers are doing gambling for the money making.
From my opinion, I think there isn’t any need to stake or risk one’s money on a game simply because you want to catch fun when you could simply not risk your money and still have fun while watching same game.
I don’t know if I’m really staying my points well but I wish to know if people really have to gamble without intentions of making money?
You can't have fun by watching the game. Would you prefer to download God Of War on your pc and play yourself or you prefer to watch how other person plays it? I prefer to play by myself because I control the process and I feel like the character. The same applies to gambling too, I play slots myself, I control how much I bet instead of watching others decisions. If you want to have fun, there are many games that let you to gamble with play money. You also have to keep in mind that not every game is playable via play money, for example, live casinos need you to bet real money. There will be some people who get fun from live casinos and bet small to enjoy the experience,
winning is a bonus in this case.
Most of these games also increase anxiety and I also noticed that some of us are already derailing from
The subject matter which is, if we truly have people who gamble strictly because of fun when there are several games they can play without getting to risk any money because I personally believe over 80% of gamblers are there to make money and from my little time of observation, I’ve notice that these set of people who gamble they gamble for fun are people who’s losses are largely greater than that winnings and telling people that they gamble for fun seems to be one of the best ways to get out of shame from the losses because I believe there is always a special joy that comes from winning a bet
Many people appear to gamble with the intention of making money, but the reality is that the majority of gamblers lose money over time. So, to save face or prevent feeling awful about their losses, they may claim that they are gambling for enjoyment. However, even if someone claims to be gambling for enjoyment, they are almost certainly expecting to earn money, even if it is not their major motivation. It's almost as if people are deluding themselves into believing they don't care about money, but in reality, they are only attempting to insulate themselves from the emotional and psychological anguish of losing money by claiming they don't care.

Not really just that good or beneficial on gambling but also in other things as well on which we could almost access everything on our mobile phone.Yes, this is really that giving out that easy access and convenience but we cant really be able to deny the fact that it does have its cons too on which minors could easily access out these platforms even if its not really that allow for them to do so, and since detecting out those minors on playing or
dealing with those things then it isnt something that could be that easily detected and this is why we've seen that there are people who do easily make out those engagement.

Its definitely evident on what we are currently seeing now on what this technology brings out on which it did really bring out that huge convenience into people who are really that tending on doing something.
Everything is really that almost in the touch of our fingertips on which we could be able to deal up with those things without any problems.
Accessibility is really that too easy.
You're right easy access and convenience can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it's wonderful to have so much knowledge and entertainment at our fingertips. However, there are risks associated, particularly when minors access sites and content to which they should not be exposed. There are some age verification methods in place, but as you stated, they are not always reliable.
356  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: February 28, 2024, 07:17:13 AM

For many people who become addicted to gambling, in my opinion, it is likely that they cannot resist the temptation to gamble. Indeed, the temptation of gambling is heavy, I feel it But now I can control myself because I know it is important. In order not to experience major losses we must be able to control ourselves. Also the big losses that occurred were due to myself not being able to limit the gambling activities that were carried out. As you said, have control over yourself. That's important, don't let us gamble with a loss of self-control which can result in big problems such as addiction and loss.

It appears you've learned quite a lesson from your personal experience about self control and the potential consequences of not having it when it comes to gambling. You're right that it's not just about losing money, there are also other hazzard irresponsible gambling can cause a gambler such as emotional trauma, this often happens when a gambler has lost everything maybe due to chasing losses and then ended  up taking loans to continue gambling in order to recover the funds he lost, this can easily result to emotional trauma, as well as affecting your mental health and leading someone to frustration, which can often make some gamblers often attempt to take their own life.
Nothing more can bring anything good. A gamble who gamble more, the more likely he is to lose. Gambling is always uncertain. A gambler may be in danger whenever he envisions gambling as a regular income opportunity. There is no regular income opportunity in gambling. But without knowing this fact, many consider gambling as another source of income. They even lost their control at one point. For regular income they even try to use more money to recover losses which results in higher losses and those gamblers suffer more. It is better to have the intention of enjoying gambling rather than earning. Greed will work in it when gambling consider as a income source. Rather, after losing money in gambling, it is better not to try to recover the lost money.

It's true what you said, the more often and more they gamble, the more often and more they experience defeat, there is nothing that can guarantee that they can get a definite win even if it is by gambling frequently, because a win that is not certain to be obtained is absolutely impossible to obtain by according to your heart's desires, but what is certain is that defeat will always occur or be obtained, so even if you gamble frequently you cannot guarantee that you will be able to win at gambling. It's really unfortunate for people who consider gambling as their main source of income, because that is an incorrect principle, making gambling a permanent income in my opinion is the same as giving money away for free, because there is no guaranteed profit, even though there is a chance of winning Maybe even if you win, it won't cover all the losses that have occurred. and I think that people who gamble as a regular income are people who are no longer of sound mind, because with that they will only experience big losses as they continue to gamble and the losses will continue to accompany them. understanding the fact that gambling is not a good thing if it is done frequently is real, because gambling is only a means of paid entertainment, nothing more than that, but if they think gambling is a source of income then they are very wrong. there is no definite profit that can be obtained consistently.

In my opinion, if they gamble frequently or consider gambling as a source of income, it means that they have lost self-control, thinking that they want to recover losses or chase wins is the same as wasting their money. Even though they try to use a lot of money and a large bet amount, it doesn't guarantee they can win if they don't have absolute luck in gambling, unlike those who have luck, even though they bet with a small bet amount, they can win. the maximum amount of the bet is due to luck. What must be paid attention to is that when they don't have money they shouldn't force themselves to gamble, but rather they have to work to earn money, and gamble when they have more money or money that is apart from all needs, I mean when basic needs are met and still If you have leftover money, it doesn't matter if you use the remaining money for gambling. This is what you have to pay attention to, don't gamble when you don't have income or force yourself to gamble, that's not recommended at all.
Well, the first thing I'd say is that people should be acutely aware of their chances of winning. Most types of gambling have the odds stacked in favor of the house, making it extremely unlikely that someone will regularly win money over time. Understanding the odds can help people make more informed decisions about how much to gamble and if the risk is worthwhile. Second, I believe that people should set limitations for themselves in terms of how much time and money they are ready to spend on gambling. This can assist them avoid falling into the cycle of chasing losses.

Another thing I'd add is that it's critical to detect the signs of gambling addiction, which might include spending more time and money than anticipated, feeling nervous or unhappy when not gaming, or believing that gambling is required to escape difficulties or relieve stress. If a person exhibits any of these symptoms, they should get help from a specialist, such as a therapist or counselor who specializes in gambling addiction. Finally, I believe that people should have a support structure in place, such as friends or family members, to assist them keep accountable and avoid problem gambling.

Yes, technology has brought with it a lot of benefits, but it's also created a lot of new challenges. The freedom to gamble from anywhere, at any time, and on any device can make it extremely difficult for people to maintain control. And it is true that children can easily access gambling websites and apps, even if they are not permitted to. There are age-verification procedures in place, but they are not always reliable. Early exposure to gaming may also increase the likelihood of having a gambling disorder later in life.
358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This was my highest risk. on: February 28, 2024, 06:56:21 AM
I've never bet anything so large that I would end up in a much worse position than I started in.  I know serious gamblers, or more so professional gamblers, which I think is the more appropriate word, tend to take such large risks, but it's part of their game/job and it's just how they have to bet to make it work as a career.  This is why unless you're that, I just wouldn't ever recommend doing something of this nature.
There is a significant distinction between recreational and professional gambling. A recreational gambler is doing it for enjoyment, thus they are likely to be more conservative with their wagers. A professional gambler is doing it for a living, thus they are more prone to take risks in order to win big. People should comprehend the difference between the two and only gamble with money they can afford to lose.

It's like the opposite if we understand it, right? because those who play gambling just for fun, they should be the ones who don't care about the money they take out, they should be the ones who are stronger to lose money compared to the gamblers who make it a means of living. Anyways, no matter what the explanation is, there is only one thing that is most important of all, we should always be careful when gambling and we will only use the money we can afford to lose or spend without regret.


Absolutely, it's very important that people should cultivate the habit of gambling with money they can afford to lose. It's very easy to get caught up in the thrill of winning and forget that there's a real risk of losing, that's why even before you start gambling, you should be fully aware of the risks, most especially that any money you use to gamble has at least 80% chance of being lost, when you have this attitude towards gambling, I believe it will help you make certain choices.
It's also very important to understand that gambling should be seen as a  recreational and form of entertainment rather than a way to make money, still, there's every need to be careful and cautious while playing because even people who consider gambling as a way to have fun can still get into trouble if they're not careful.

It is normal to expect that gambling, just like other businesses will continue to develop and advance as alongside technology. The internet revolution brought with it many new and smart ways of doing things, the reason we are experience serious improvements in traditional ways of doing things. As you have already stated, gambling have been and will continue to adapt to changes in technology and in line with best practices and operators will play their part to sustain their business.

Some areas gambling might explore in the future is something like telegram casinos which is beginning to emerge and which still need a lot of improvements. Soon, I feel many companies will begin to integrate something that simple to use in their businesses.
We were blind not to notice other sectors in gambling but sticking to on, however it's all in the past.The old days comes with alot of complicated task that were considered as hurdles for most of these gamblers. There was no other better way than following the system in plain techniques. I preferred the current days because there we have the vast sectors of gambling and we choose the odds that become convenient for us. There are large firms that have invested quit alot in these gambling sites and they're ready to level themselves to major phases.
The gambling scene has evolved throughout time, with more alternatives and chances for gamblers. The rise of online gambling has also made it easier for people to enjoy various forms of gambling from the comfort of their own homes. You noted that there are now companies that are significantly invested in the sector.

Gambling has become more advance when compare to the olden days. I could remember when I started sport betting, alot of options that wasn't there then are now included giving you more chances to lose or win.
You're absolutely correct, technology has changed a lot of things in the gambling landscape in a very big and notable way.
Today, rather walking into a casino people can gamble comfortably on their phone, while in their houses, on the bus or any other place, which were not available before, but like we know, whatever that has an advantage must also have its own disadvantages. It has also made gambling more dangerous.
With all the options and opportunities made available in gambling, it's very easy to get caught up in it and lose control. It can very really hard and almost impossible to resist the temptations, especially with so many online ads and promotions.

For many people who become addicted to gambling, in my opinion, it is likely that they cannot resist the temptation to gamble. Indeed, the temptation of gambling is heavy, I feel it But now I can control myself because I know it is important. In order not to experience major losses we must be able to control ourselves. Also the big losses that occurred were due to myself not being able to limit the gambling activities that were carried out. As you said, have control over yourself. That's important, don't let us gamble with a loss of self-control which can result in big problems such as addiction and loss.

It appears you've learned quite a lesson from your personal experience about self control and the potential consequences of not having it when it comes to gambling. You're right that it's not just about losing money, there are also other hazzard irresponsible gambling can cause a gambler such as emotional trauma, this often happens when a gambler has lost everything maybe due to chasing losses and then ended  up taking loans to continue gambling in order to recover the funds he lost, this can easily result to emotional trauma, as well as affecting your mental health and leading someone to frustration, which can often make some gamblers often attempt to take their own life.
Nothing more can bring anything good. A gamble who gamble more, the more likely he is to lose. Gambling is always uncertain. A gambler may be in danger whenever he envisions gambling as a regular income opportunity. There is no regular income opportunity in gambling. But without knowing this fact, many consider gambling as another source of income. They even lost their control at one point. For regular income they even try to use more money to recover losses which results in higher losses and those gamblers suffer more. It is better to have the intention of enjoying gambling rather than earning. Greed will work in it when gambling consider as a income source. Rather, after losing money in gambling, it is better not to try to recover the lost money.
The worse thing a gambler can do for himself is viewing gambling as a source of income, because it's inherently a game of chances and luck, nothing about gambling is certain and there's no guarantee of winning. In fact, the odds often works in favor of the casino rather than the gamblers. It's really easy to get caught up in the cycle of loss chasing, as you said, and it can lead to more problems.
