3561  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: August 03, 2016, 12:06:24 PM
Gambling is really dangerous if you do not know how to control yourself. My share of experience with this is that I'm having successive wins for a few days and then I thought that if I earn that much with a small amount then I will deposit a bigger amount and then it happened. I had successive losses and then I lose it all including the profit that I accumulated. It happened because I'm greedy and I was not able to control myself. I can't say that it wrecked my life totally because I was able to catch myself before I fall into the trap and lose everything dear to me.

Greediness wont make any good thing into you but  only disaster, its really hard to control your self to those times your  experiencing this kind of feeling, you cant even think when you should stop. Having a good self control and  realization would be a big help to stop yourself  if you already experiencing greediness.
Greediness is a way to lose our money, mostly who have this attitude are those people who are desperate in making money in the easiest way and a short period of time. This is not a good way in gambling because it will never bring good to you as a gambler and you will not last in doing that since you are not doing it base on your ability to think rather play with your emotion only.

Yeah, most people lose all their money because greedy and because greedy on gambling, it will wreck somebody life. Same as my experience on gambling.
It is really depend on how they will used being greedy, being greedy sometimes good but sometimes it is really bad, yeah, I think most of the time it is bad especially in gambling, but sometimes when the greediness is come with us, we really want to earn money and some of us work hard just to get it, and not just to gamble and thinking that we can win this time.

I am gambling only for fun, and i deposit small amount every month, but in my whole life i think i lost more than 5000$ gambling. I am talking about 20-30$/month.

You have been lost more than $5000 just to play for fun, but if you play to make serious money than how big you can lost with bad habit, I think gambling always hurt and nobody can make guaranteed profit with it.
Those who even make profit are sooner or later are ruined by gambling. The only thing is when you are in profit is how long can you keep being in profit and when that moment come when you will loose it all. Some people I know have ruined their life.
Yes, not all winner in gambling can win all the time and can earn money consistently, they can also lose anytime. There is no permanent in this world. But if your status in gambling is good and you really earn money, I think once you lose once, stop for a while, cause if you continue, you will just lose what you have already earn from it.
3563  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 03, 2016, 11:58:55 AM
I have given some suggestions few days ago but I think it is good to add one more suggestion. Actually there should be a set of suggestions as for every addicted person needs some different strategy. You should stay away from gambling sites and to make yourself realize that you are still betting you can put bets with your partner or some family member to help you to stay away from real gambling sites. This strategy really worked for one of my friend who successfully got rid of gambling doing these practices of false gambling.

Good thing because your friend was able to get rid of this addicting game called gambling. You are also right that different strategies should be applied. It would be a trial and error, if this strategy works then you are good to go but if not then try another strategy.
You have to do all the way to stay away in gambling and it is not easy to do that because addiction is hard to cure, you need to be fully submissive with yourself and make sure you will do what it takes just to change for the better.

Gambling addiction is really hard to cure especially if you are not sincere  on making a change on yourself. If you want to stay away from gambling then dont play ever again and hold yourself  to play again so that you wont be  get addicted again. Just do somethings that can make you busy  so that you would forget  gambling.

Well i guess it would not just limit to addiction on gambling. It would apply to all  kind of addiction. There is no such easy way to be able to get through with addiction. You are right sincerity and dedication will for me are the key to overcome addiction
Yeah, agree with you, because if we don't have determination to quit in one thing that we wanted to quit, we will never be successful in our plan, first thing first.
We must know first if we really wanted to quit for now cause if you don't you just wasting your time and also the time of other people that wants to help you to quit in gambling.
3564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: August 03, 2016, 11:52:56 AM
you must have a plan to make gambling as your steady income , you can make it as long as you stick on it. you will never feel want more profit once you have to set the limit , set the goal and make it as your safe method ever in gambling.
Is there really a safe method in gambling? Cause I think only one thing I know, just bet what you can afford to lose, that’s the safest way I think when we play gambling, no special plan we can make in gambling, we cannot analyze everything, and we don't know when our luck will be there for us.
3565  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: August 03, 2016, 11:49:54 AM
Play , win > stop Cheesy
LOL! how about the other way around? Play , lose >STOP?

I think that would not happen because the more you lose the more you want to gamble, you are in the manner chasing your bets and that happens to everyone of us and we know that it is not smart but when your emotions will take over we play dumb.
I don't think that all people is with also the same mindset of yours, once that your situation is like "Play>lose>stop" I think it is better than to lose more than that. Don't let that your mind will dictate you. Or else you will end up losing money.
3566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: August 03, 2016, 11:34:14 AM
i think gambling is not a bad habit. it become bad if a person is playing it badly and wrongly. it become bad when a person make it a way of become rich in a day or so. my personal experience is that when i came back from my job in evening time i went to my friends house. as we have no casino in area therefore we do gambling on cricket match. when i went to my friend's house there we get on live cricket matches. i play gambling in a limit. for the money which i have budgeted for my pocket on daily basis. if i won its ok other wise i will lose only my daily limit of my pocket money. so i think its not bad its just fun and enjoyment.

Gambling is never really bad nor good since it's just a game that required a user to be played. It is the users responsibility wether what will be the result of his decision in gambling. You can't blame a game, that's hypocritical.
True! we are the once who responsible in our self, especially when we play gambling, cause we are the one who choose to play gambling and no one dictate us if we need to play or not.

Curiosity sometimes kill, well in gambling people may turn addicted to it and yes no one dictates you to play gambling because you are the one doing it but I think curiosity sometimes will strike to a person, you can really think for your self in what will you do from the start you should know that gambling has many effect that may affect you, knowledge in something would help you stop your curiosity towards something specially when it is bad.
But I think curiosity is just fine, because if they don't try to play gambling they will don't have idea what it is and how it works, they can also used their experience here for them to learn something and for them to be matured enough. Smiley


Out of curiosity worst things starts to happen, so when that happens of course you really want to quit and stop it for real and good.

And the solution for it is you are going to give importance to your own money, think about that you have plans in the future.

Instead of investing it into gambling, put it into your bank accounts and hope for it that it can give you a good future.
Yeah, we really need to save money for our future, but of course for sure, we also have extra money for this kind of activity.
Why not try? For them also to experience and for them to try their luck also, but of course I know that luck is not always there for us right? But if we just used money that we can afford to lose I think that is fine to try.
3567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: August 03, 2016, 11:29:30 AM
Lottery gives you hope to get reach. You would expect the prize draw. You'll be glad or sad after the draw. It's funny) So gambling, so addicting.
gambling is addicting for me either because i get a chance to win big money, though it is also addicting because these games give me a really great opportunity to make big money
Okay! but that opportunity is just temporary, we win in gambling when we are lucky only and when our luck is gone we all lose. The opportunity is only for the gamblers with great capability to win in the long run and they are the gamblers involved in skilled base games like poker and also sports betting can be considered.
Yeah, some professional gamblers I think used to play gambling games that only needs strategy and not just only relying on their luck. Because we cannot say that we are lucky today, no one can even know even yourself if you are lucky today.
3568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your gambling stats? (Profit/Loss) on: August 02, 2016, 10:44:12 AM
I am in very good profit because of having very good streak with betting, even some bets I lost but recently I made very good profit in some friendly match as it was much easy to predict about them.
Well, I think it is better to play with friends than outside gambling places. Because I think when we play with our friends we all know their weaknesses, and we can easily handle our emotions with them cause at the same time we can laugh at them while playing and also bond with them at the same time.
3569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: August 02, 2016, 10:06:57 AM
Not severe? lol. Gambling addiction would  give you a miserable  life  when the time comes  that you dont have a single penny to spent. You even  sold your house to someone  just  to have money to play as  also others said that it might   be a cause  that your family would leave you. That thing  is not severe to you? Why you are comparing to other addictions? Put in mind that  everything is abused might lead to things that  you wouldnt expect to happen.

Everyone knows that gambling is a bad habit and every suggest not to do it in any cost if you are planning to earn money through it.
And addiction is something that never let us stop doing something, even if we know that can lead us to destruction, it is the same case in gambling as well, one obviously knows that gambling can lead him to destruction but he still gambles just because he is addicted to it.
I think gambling is just a game that has an effect like the other games, but many people say that gambling is a game that is better, because it makes a person becomes excited. Well, I guess gambling can not be regarded as sickness, but I guess gambling has an effect that makes people addicted, like drugs
Yes there is a possibility that their addicted in gambling will more likely on drugs. Because I know some people are like that, they will sell everything or their belongings just to gamble again like drugs also they will sell their belongings or even an appliances just to have a drugs again. That’s addict person how it was. They will use to sell everything that they can sell just to satisfy their wants.
3570  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What stuff you buy when you win gambling? on: August 02, 2016, 09:46:59 AM
I won many times but didn't succeed to buy anything as I busted all winnings in try to make them much more. This is my story which I do over and again but can't control. I may be buy someday car or some real life stuff using gambling money. I never bought anything from winning money this is situation at this moment.
Well I think most gamblers have the same situation especially to those who are really addicted to it. Cause it is really hard to stay away in gambling especially when our winning moment is often, however, we really need a supervised of our family or friends that will lead us to a good future or give us some advice on how can we handle our money from winning in gambling.
3571  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this what we called "addictive to gamble"? on: August 01, 2016, 10:56:24 AM
Definitely if a person starts to gamble to win the money they most likely will try to chase loses leading to bigger ones. People need to avoid this and keep their bitcoins safe.
Addiction will never bring good into your life as you are like doing gambling without having the right mentality, most addicts loses in the end and will result to doing illegal things just finance their gambling addiction, we should avoid that scenario to happen in our life and maintain self control in gambling.
That's true, once they really wanted to get what they want, they will do something just to gamble again cause they are really addicted and they cannot control themselves, some people are like that, they don't know how really to stop from playing gambling so if you have a family member that is like that guide them and always be with them.
3572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What stuff you buy when you win gambling? on: August 01, 2016, 10:54:24 AM
If I win I think I will save some of it and I think I will buy the sandals that I saw the last time I go to mall cause I really like it and it is nice to my feet.  Grin So I wish I can win in gambling HAHAHAHA!  But if I really win huge amount that can buy a house, I will buy one for my family.  Smiley
3573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: August 01, 2016, 10:52:15 AM
Yes bro Gambling Is Wrong Because when I was a Newbie I lost my Faucet earnings totaling 0.01 Btc in Gambling. After that I Never Tried Gambling Again.
I think Gambling is Not a Good Way of Growing your Money. you can Grow your Bitcoins By many ways online....

That is the key for a real change. I do that also but first I withdraw all my money now and just leave some satoshi in my gambling wallet. That will be the one for my game. If all of that lose then I stop. just 50-100k satoshis then I am good.

You're right, gambling is not a good way to make money or to grow our money, and we cannot use gambling to gain profit, because I think Gambling can be also an additional to our problems. If you really want to earn money just use you money to make small business instead to play gambling.
Maybe you are having big problem with gambling mate, you should not say that gambling will only give a problem in overall as there are still number of gamblers that are enjoying doing gambling as their way to release the stress in real life work.
You can feel happiness or excitement in gambling that's what others feel when they are feeling but at the same time this will reverse your mood when you see that you're constantly losing. So the result may end up that you feel happy or full of regret that you gamble.
Not all the time in gambling when we lose we are also feel regret. cause some people just use their money for entertainment and the money that they use is I think intended to play for it. So when we have the amount that we can afford to lose in gambling and we already lose it I think it is okay. As long as it is just your extra money not your personal money.
3574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: August 01, 2016, 10:49:33 AM
Yes, just like i do now, from time to time and when i get the chance to play some extra cash Cheesy
Yes I think play with just your extra money and do not use all your money, because I know that rich people will not waste their time just to gamble without purpose, they will gamble because they have a purpose. And that's the truth and we cannot deny it.
3575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Gambling is Fun? on: August 01, 2016, 10:47:23 AM
Gambling for Fun, not just to win money, can still be rewarding. You can learn good gambling habits by playing for the fun of the game instead of for money. Don't think of money you spent gambling as money you 'lost.
Yes, gambling really make us fun especially when we win, but once we play gambling there is always a risk and we all know that so don't expect that we can win all the time, if we lose it's okay cause that's what you pay for your entertainment.  Grin
3576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: August 01, 2016, 10:44:30 AM
I don't think gambling will be always profitable when we play this kind of activity.
Gambling will not always profitable at all, but in gambling we can earn money and we can also lose.
But for me, loses is more often than winning, so don't put in our mind that gambling will can be profitable in a future.
3577  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: August 01, 2016, 10:41:17 AM
Planning decreases your chances of mistakes, but it's important to be prepared
to deal with failure situations, because sooner or later may happen.


I believe it too, before you are going to gamble make sure the amount you are going to gamble is you afford to lose. And make sure that it is not going to hurt your feelings whenever you are going to lose. But it is really necessary that in the end all of the gamblers are just losin easily.
That should be the practice if you are only having fun, but for professionals it is a different setting because they gamble more to win more and they are the persons who mostly make the right decision and in the long run will make money. They are the exemption to the rule.
I don't think people can control their feeling after losing their money, of course people will hurt when they lose money and we cannot control our feelings. But we must all know that we can have a self control so that we can minimize our loses.

3579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: August 01, 2016, 10:32:12 AM
gambling can fix life or destroy life. it depends on you on how you handle yourself and how you manage to not be addicted to it because once you've been addicted to it, you can loose all your investments, properties, and money. it can make you have many lending and be jailed because you aren't be able to pay your doubts. again, it is depends on you on how you manage yourself.
Some gamblers doesn't really attached to gambling they just want to try their luck so I think it is just okay for them to play gambling as long as they know the limitation and how to handle and budget their money. I think it is okay to play.
3580  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 01, 2016, 10:30:00 AM
The problem with most gambling addicts is that they won't trust their own selves with money because as soon as they get their hands on some balance the will go on and gamble it away. I do agree that the first step is to admit to yourself that you have a problem but I think that the first step to take is make sure that you can't access any money in order to go on and gamble it away. So let someone know that you can't stop gambling and make them secure your balance from yourself.
Yes, i think you are also right that they don't have enough trust to themselves with money so they want more profit and they want to use gambling for them to have more money but the truth is they are just losing it. But we also know that when we enter gambling sites or places there are always a risk so it is not safe to put our money here, so if I were that person I will just continue work hard and save some money and I think get some extra income and not here in gambling for them to have some income.
