I've seen and I also know so some gamblers who are doing amazingly well and living their dream lives through gambling and from same country(Nigeria).
I want you to also understand that most of this things shouldn't be generalized easily because you found one or two persons who don't have savings and then Intend to judge everyone based on just that singular issues and that's not right and I'm sure if some of this persons work in a different field might also do same by not having savings, so I don't think it is an occupational issue but rather a personal issue.
Some people can live their dream lives through gambling, but not many can achieve it. What's more, many people still cannot have savings, and it's not because of gambling but because of other things. But it's still better than having no savings just because of gambling because it can create other problems for those people. But it's better if they can try to have savings and try to save it regularly. They can try to change their life using savings, especially if they are not involved with gambling. Of course, they can actually improve their lives without depending on gambling.
Indeed. Despite appearances to the contrary, gambling is not a viable strategy for long-term financial security. Instead than depending on chance, people should learn to save and invest their money wisely.

The ability to save money and manage your own money provides security and freedom to pursue your goals in life. Having savings makes it possible to do things like start a company, go back to school, or just relax and enjoy life without having to constantly worry about money. Everyone, in my opinion, should work toward establishing a stable financial base rather than depending on volatile activities like gambling for sustenance.
I agree with you. By trying to manage our money through saving money, we can start living frugally by not using that money for unnecessary things. And by saving anyway, we can start planning something that might change our lives.

Managing finances is very important if we want to achieve or change our lives for the better. And instead of using it to gamble, we can collect more money by saving it. And if we have used a lot of money for gambling, we can start to reduce it, and we just save the money while we tell ourselves that the money we save can bring a meaningful change to our lives. Everyone can start saving, but most people just say their intentions without any real action to start saving.
4182  Economy / Economics / Re: Can one achieve financial independence through crypto currency? on: February 12, 2023, 03:29:35 PM
Yes, people can achieve their dream of financial freedom by using cryptocurrencies because they can make crypto their investment. By keeping crypto as an investment, they can sell it at a high price. Of course, this will apply to coins that can really increase, for example, bitcoin. By holding bitcoins, people can get huge profits by selling them at peak prices.

And when the price corrects after hitting a peak, they can buy more bitcoins, and the cycle starts from there. With the benefits you get from bitcoin, you can be calm in enjoying your life and not worry if bitcoin experiences another correction.
4183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and it effect to our local community on: February 12, 2023, 02:22:45 PM
You can tell your experience while using bitcoin, whether from trading, investing, or other things that can allow you to earn money. Maybe the topic of money will interest them, so they will be curious and want to know more. From there, you can tell more about bitcoin and what benefits it will have for them if they use it as their long-term investment.

But don't talk about getting a lot of money instantly, but tell me about the investment side first and also explain the risks because people are usually not ready for the risks they will face later. It will benefit your community if you can tell the truth about bitcoin. Moreover, perhaps you already feel the benefits of bitcoin for you that you can tell them.
4184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The biggest casino property... on: February 12, 2023, 12:24:23 PM


Seriously, am I alone in this? Don't you guys think that playing online can be more enjoyable than inside of that monstrous modern prison?
For some people, a place like that full of people playing gambling will make them eager to take part in gambling. They will not be disturbed by the crowds in that place and can even enjoy it. But people who do not like crowds will never go to such casinos because it is too crowded and full of people. They prefer a quiet place, like in their room, alone and play gambling casually accompanied by a cup of coffee and soft tunes. I also don't like places that are crowded with people and feel uncomfortable with it all. It keeps me from being able to focus on what I'm doing.
4185  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest in new Projects (Need Suggestion) on: February 12, 2023, 11:32:00 AM
Should I invest in new projects? It depends on the nature of the said project, we can invest in them if it can be trusted or somewhat really worth it. As an investor, we also know how to assess the potentiality of the project, it is not because someone says it is good we also believe it and follow what they say but it was our position as well to make a review and make the final decision. But I would tell you that investing in new projects corresponds with high risk and therefore, we should not be easy with them unless we are sure about it.
Most people do not think about the risks, especially if they are tempted after reading one or more offers that contain large returns in a short time. They will not find out more details about the project and directly invest some money. And unfortunately, many immediately use a lot of money to invest even though they don't know whether the project will provide benefits in the future or fail after being released on the market. A wise investor should know his limits and how much money he can invest and should not invest in one project, especially if it is a new project.
4186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Features in Crypto Casinos for the Elderly on: February 12, 2023, 10:35:59 AM
Why not teach the elderly about cryptocurrencies and how to send the crypto into a casino. I am sure that they will find it easy to do since sending funds to another platform is not very complicated thing but the problem will be on how to use the gadget. Well, my mother doesn't even know how to use mobile phones and evem right now is that she didn't know all of its features and my mother only use messenger app and Facebook and nothing else. I think that it may be a challenge to teach ssomeone about gadgets but for someone who is interested even though that person is an elder then I think it may be easier to do.
It would be better than teaching parents about crypto gambling because we don't know how well they can control themselves by not using all their coins in one day. And if they find they can't control themselves, they can deposit more money into the crypto casino to continue gambling. This is the same as allowing them to gamble more than other people. We should be able to teach these parents to use something properly and correctly, especially if it is about bitcoin, and they also need to prepare for their old age in peace by making bitcoin an investment for their old age. It will really help them when they have no money and feel bad about asking their children for money, and they can sell their bitcoins to earn money and meet their needs without the help of their children.
4187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: February 12, 2023, 09:23:49 AM

Gamblers will definitely be able to adapt to the current situation because if there are already a lot of gamblers who use AI well and can benefit from using AI, they should also find a way to try it. AI is a tool to help us do something so that we can do it properly and quickly, and using AI to get information about the teams that will compete will give us a faster time in collecting the data. And we can also find out how much the percentage of each team is.

Yup, gamblers who are keen to find ways to have some decent advantages will try to explore and use it to make a good analysis when picking the right game to bet, I'm sure there's people who already exploring and trying the opportunity that this AI is now providing not an assurance but some data that can be usable to analyze well.

This data is worthy if ever you are aiming to pick games and see if which team/player do have a decent advantaged in winning the game.
Yes, it's true what you say. Perhaps some developers have launched a Beta for this program in the field of gambling but haven't said anything to the public. And perhaps that AI will be devoted to sports betting, which will help bettors to collect more complete and accurate information.

After some discussion in this thread, it makes me curious if this AI for sports betting has been launched. Surely there will be many curious people who want to try it too. And if they can win easily because they already have accurate information, it will make other people interested in using it.
No official launches yet, just some people who thought it was a great idea to waste time and use chatgpt's limited intelligence to make predictions over games that are happening in the present. AI sports betting will be a viable prediction method in the future however, especially if we are introduced to an AI model that is learning as fast as the prompts given to it are, although that is a bif risky considering how stupid and reckless some people may be when it comes to asking stuff to be done. All in all, it's an inevitable path to our future now. AI has been and is slowly being integrated into out lives.
It may still be in the BETA stage, where the developers need a lot of people to try the AI program to find out what needs to be improved to achieve what the developers want. Indeed, this requires an unknown amount of time when it will be perfect, but the developers will also give it time to work optimally. And if this AI method can function properly and provide accurate information, it may help gamblers analyze and place their bets. Yes, slowly, everything will turn into digitalization, and we must be ready for that change.

Taking out loans to gamble would never be advisable because we would not know whether we could win or even lose in gambling. If we win, we can return the loan money. But how will we repay the loan while the deadline is approaching if we lose?

Stealing money from other people to gamble can also be categorized as a gambling addiction because he needs money to gamble and does not always win. And when he has no money, even though his desire to gamble is high, he will steal money from other people just to continue gambling.
That act can really put someone into deep trouble, having a debt with a large interest as time passes by can really make a person to sell all his belongings until he don't have anything but still need to pay. It is really hard to have a self discipline and also it is hard to be a gambling as well, so the question will be in what hard way you want to choose in your life? We should not blame gambling always we should be accountable to anything that is happening to us.
Of course, we don't want our lives to experience difficulties such as losing everything valuable, including things we already have, all lost because of gambling. No one will want to see it, and because of that, we really have to be able to prevent ourselves from falling into any debt if we can't pay off the loan. We should live a simple life and still be able to play gambling like other people, but with really tight restrictions so we don't lose more money at the gambling table. And yes, we must be truly responsible for whatever happens to us.

4190  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it true that 80% of the world's wealth in the hands of 20%? on: February 12, 2023, 06:27:40 AM
That there is so much wealth disparity throughout the globe worries me. It's sad that so few people control so much of the world's wealth, while the lowest half of the population controls less than 2%. The world's increasingly uneven distribution of wealth is a source of worry for many people, including myself. A more fair version of this situation sounds like a formidable obstacle to overcome, yet it is still a fact of life in the world we now inhabit. Although influential individuals have the ability to restore equilibrium, they show little sign of doing so since they benefit from the current state of affairs. I have faith that governments and the public will come up with innovative and helpful solutions to this problem, but I recognize its complexity.

i don't think the government will be looking at solutions on this matter. that's actually hard to implement. i guess, let's not worry about this as it is beyond our control. the figures may be true, but what can we do being an ordinary person?
do you really think even one government on this earth is thinking about the equality of his people? i seriously doubt they are. so just mind your own business, and find ways how to improve your living.

Exactly, it's out of our control, there's nothing we can do, don't waste time on those things, our job is to focus on ourselves and our family. As long as we can bring a full and happy life to our loved ones, we have succeeded. The world has been unfair for thousands of years, and I suspect that even government intervention will not be able to solve it. All this, crime, and the divide between rich and poor, all stem from human greed, so no one can stop this.
We can't do much to change this injustice, but we can do something for our families in many ways, and that's what we have to do for the sake of our loved ones and preparing for the generations to come after us. When we can do it, we don't have to worry about the changes happening in this world because we can adapt, and so will the generations after us.

We also cannot expect too much from the government because they already have too much work to be done, even though the welfare of the people is the government's responsibility. And if we can try on our own until we truly do not depend on the government, we can survive well and maybe help people around us who need it more.
4191  Economy / Gambling / Re: STARTING OWN CRYPTO GAMBLING SITE on: February 11, 2023, 04:52:48 PM
It is clear that if you want to launch a casino, you will need a lot of money ready to get started, regardless of whether it will be a licensed or unlicensed crypto casino. However, you can grow if you have a license because crypto users may prefer licensed casinos. But this doesn't mean that unlicensed casinos are any less loved because there are people who are okay if they play in unlicensed casinos.

Maybe by having a license, the opportunity to add more types of games from many providers will open up more widely. However, later the regulator can ask your casino to do KYC and your casino members. I don't know much about licenses for casinos, but having a license guarantees that your casino is legal.
4192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do casino and sports betting platform owners gamble as much as other people? on: February 11, 2023, 04:06:51 PM
Casino owners can gamble on the free time they have in their busy lives managing the casino. But I don't think they will play gambling for long because there will be a lot of work that they have to complete every day. And as casino owners, they have to make sure that they can benefit and that there is no time to rest just to gamble. Maybe they can stop gambling and choose to oversee their business and think about how their business can grow even more rapidly.
4193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Signs of compulsive gambling on: February 11, 2023, 03:28:19 PM
There are more signs that a person is becoming a compulsive gambler that you didn't mentioned or include in the list you made. You forgot about finding ways to earn money when you are waiting for your salary to come just to gamble which I am sure you know that it will result in having loans or borrowed money from friends or someone they knew. I am like that before whiyI tried tk recover my lose but didn't made me a compulsive gambler and also been quite some time since I haven't gamble a single cent.

That's actually applies to everything in general in terms of being hooked up to a certain things/activities, including gambling. Taking a loan to gamble is the worst idea, not unless you're lucky enough to make a profit out of it and repay the loan right after you win to avoid additional interest.
Another worst thing to happen when someone is so desperate to gamble without money is, stealing money from others  just to satisfy one's gambling addiction.
Taking out loans to gamble would never be advisable because we would not know whether we could win or even lose in gambling. If we win, we can return the loan money. But how will we repay the loan while the deadline is approaching if we lose?

Stealing money from other people to gamble can also be categorized as a gambling addiction because he needs money to gamble and does not always win. And when he has no money, even though his desire to gamble is high, he will steal money from other people just to continue gambling.

I have read through each members thoughts, and suggestions regarding this ideas, I really appreciate, the religious leaders which am specifically referring to are those which are already aware of the currency Bitcoin, and they are not to advice there members on when to invest and when not to invest in Bitcoin but they are just letting them know of Bitcoin existence both advantages and disadvantages putting into consideration.  it's now left for the followers/members to decide wither or not the risk is worth taken
have seen a similar video on YouTube video
were Christian Religious leader was emphasizing about Bitcoin.
If it was about providing information about the whereabouts of bitcoin, religious leaders could do it to people who come to church or mosque. After all, the religious leaders don't insist that their congregations follow what they are doing and invite them to learn more about bitcoin.

That's what people who know about bitcoin and want to introduce bitcoin to others should do. They can explain what bitcoin is and how to use it, but for other things, like when people can start investing, it's up to each person.
4195  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you appreciate more Desktop or Phone on: February 11, 2023, 01:28:18 PM
Desktop screens are for convenience and it is preferable for gaming but unlike mobile device, desktop cant is moveable freely like baggie g and outdoor activities, in my opinion, it is better to use the two but choose the right place and time for both usages.
Each device we use has its advantages and disadvantages, and we already know it before we use it. People who travel a lot prefer to use their mobile devices. And likewise, people who rarely travel will prefer to use a desktop or laptop. This will be based on the convenience factor of each user so that they will choose it for themselves. Some people use laptops, travel a lot, and prefer laptops to play gambling instead of using mobile devices.

4197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is Gambling? ChatGPT Responses. on: February 11, 2023, 11:23:46 AM
I don't see any difference between the explanation of ewch age. As far as I can say, each answer explains what is gambling and ak don't see the importance of asking it from different person and different age either the answer is gathered by an AI that is available online or from people personally. Even if the accuracy is not the same as you yourself gather the information but still the answer is on point in my opinion.
Perhaps, @OP is just giving an example of an answer for people who ask what gambling is based on age. And from that ChatGPT, the bot gives answers based on what he has got and answers according to the understanding of someone of a different age.

ChatGPT may be currently still in the development stage but later, it will surely evolve better and be able to provide answers that are more satisfying to the seeker. And when AI technology can teach itself what it wants, it will be like a movie that we often watched before, where AI will replace humans at work.
4198  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading addiction, are you coping? on: February 11, 2023, 10:21:50 AM
I think trading Addiction is personally inflicted unlike gambling addiction, to avoid over trading, I sticked to 3 and 4 hours time frames that means I only analyze my chart every few minutes to a close of 3 or 4 hours candle chart for a possible trading setup based on my trading strategy, if there is a good setup I pull the trigger and wait to take profit thus I avoided being addicted to trading and my trading perception is not scalping where I needed to monitor price 24/7 which can invariably lead to trading addiction especially when the trader is trying to recover from streak of losses.
Trading addiction and gambling addiction are very different, whereas in trading addiction if you have good skills, you can make a profit. But the person who trades may not be able to time it in trading and will keep trading regardless of other things around him. Actually, it is better than gambling addiction because it has a better result than gambling addiction, namely, being able to earn money.

Perhaps what is needed for both the person with a gambling addiction or a trading addiction is to manage the time to gamble and trade so that they will not get addicted to it or lessen it.
4199  Economy / Gambling / Re: Positive Gambling Quotes for 2023! on: February 11, 2023, 09:25:27 AM
But usually, people who are addicted to gambling feel that they don't have any problems with gambling, and they don't even feel that they are experiencing a gambling addiction. This may seem strange, but it is the truth. A person will not want to admit that he has a problem with a great risk of losing money in gambling. And if a gambler can feel the existence of gambling addiction in him, he must immediately seek help before it is too late and he cannot recover from gambling addiction.
Addiction is something that will have a bad effect on someone.
Indeed, when someone is already addicted to gambling they do not feel that they are already addicted and addicted to gambling because they always gamble continuously as long as they still have money and are even willing to do anything to get money so they can continue playing or betting.
This will not be felt because every time they play they feel satisfaction and pleasure so it doesn't matter how much they have lost and how many defeats they have received.
First aid?
There is no first aid for someone to avoid gambling. If you don't want to be addicted, then don't ever try gambling from the start because even if you are addicted and can stop, it is only temporary and after a while the person will return to gambling as usual.
They will not feel that they have experienced gambling addiction will not be felt for them because they have had fun gambling. Many people have experienced this pleasure, which makes them forget that gambling is mere entertainment and should not be used to make money.

The first aid for gamblers is to immediately pull them out of gambling and invite them to do other things that can block their minds from thinking about gambling. And this requires other people to be able to watch over them while the gambler is gambling. But most gamblers often play gambling alone, and eventually, they experience gambling addiction that no one else knows about. We must be able to prevent ourselves from forgetting our goals in gambling so that we can stay on track and not get out of the boundaries we set.
4200  Economy / Speculation / Re: will bitcoin go back to 19000 on: February 11, 2023, 08:47:13 AM
right now I see the price of bitcoin on an exchange which is 21750, and has decreased by approximately 6% and I want to ask everyone,
is it possible that bitcoin will return to the price of 19000? or after this decline bitcoin will go back up higher ,,,?

and also I want to know what caused the bitcoin price to drop drastically?
We can only predict bitcoin returning to the $19k price without knowing if that will happen in the future or if the price will stay where it is now. But there seems to be support for keeping the price at its current price, but if negative news is released, it might influence the bitcoin price to decline again.

And every drop will bring bitcoin back up higher, and I consider the price drop this time a correction that is common in the crypto market. This actually gives us an advantage where we can buy more satoshis than before, and I think people have taken advantage of this situation for their benefit.
