441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: February 16, 2024, 03:51:07 PM
Time goes that it becomes unusual that we began to feel offenced and rebelled that we as relatives(1 family) are extorting from each other without empathy for one another and then, we unconciously grew wild developing in sentiments, greeds and taking it as an avenue to make profits.
Alongside, it was more of serious business than the just fun.

Then the casino and other online bet platforms was introduced in time. This was how I was exposed and my begining of gambling life!
In my area this is not very common because from the story you describe it is about family and you are one of those involved in it. Families should be more harmonious and strengthen each other, not rebel against each other or blackmail each other and in my place it is very rare for one family to be seen in gambling. Gambling is becoming more modern and currently there are many platforms that provide online gambling such as casinos and there are many people who are easily involved in gambling without other people knowing.

Gambling will become wilder if people do not have control and generally gamblers will be considered addicted when they can no longer stop or in other words they spend money unreasonably on the gambling they play. This is the basis for some people who think that gambling is not a good activity to do openly or secretly.

He said that he had nearly 64k dollars as a loss in the gambling site.In order to recover that 64k dollars,he keeps on betting from all his economic resources.I had advice him to use only 20 percentage of salary to get away from entire gambling loss.But he is now repeating the same 100 percentage of income from weekly,biweekly and monthly.So he was in the big loan problem.Still he is arranging funds from loan to play gambling,because he think that the recovery was possible at the place where he lost his money.What will be your suggestion for my friend to recover from the gambling addiction.
Apart from running out of financial resources he used it to gamble and took out other loans to put money into gambling which was much worse. This is why gambling should be seen as an activity for fun because people can set a budget responsibly according to portions. If gambling activities are carried out irresponsibly then things like this happen and people will lose a lot of money from their work and worse still try to seek loans from outside to increase the amount of gambling they do.

Rehabilitate and don't give access to gambling to this kind of person and finally, the involvement of people close to you can also give suggestions for him to slowly stop gambling. Treating people who are addicted to gambling is not easy, but if you don't treat them properly, don't expect them to be able to cure their gambling habit.

It cannot be denied that in the current era looking for work is difficult due to the general and ongoing decline in economic activity where we are really required to free ourselves by making changes in strategy and this needs to be done and attempted. I see that some people in my area are making efforts to open new businesses which are essentially always needed in everyday life and initially they focus on the short term and when they start to grow and develop they will target the long term.  
In the field of product sales many businesses have to close down because sales continue to decline, so business owners have to cut their employees because they are unable to provide salaries. Likewise, in other sectors and difficult economic processes make things worse and in the end people have to lose their jobs, which affects their lives in financial terms. The service sector is stronger to withstand collapse because this is a service that is quite needed and makes businesses in the midst of bad economic conditions in society have to look at the right opportunities.

All forms of business are basically built on a short-term basis and only after the journey can we determine the direction of development. I have a business in the field of selling clothes and indeed the bad economic conditions have slightly affected sales and I have to try to innovate with the times because if not I will have to lose the business that has been built for a long time.
444  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Struggle now to invest in Bitcoin for a bright future. on: February 16, 2024, 01:29:18 PM
You're right. If we want to succeed to achieve our dream, we must struggle to make it to come true. No one could succeed if he/she only wait for the miracle, it doesn't make sense. Effort is a must, patience should be needed, and has a strong belief to achieve it someday. If we have struggled with our best, then we may pray to get a luck from the God.
Effort never betrays the results and that is the process that humans must go through and there are no words of success if people do not struggle and dare to take risks. After the business is carried out correctly, increase it with prayer because the path of sky also determines a person's success process because effort without prayer is a lie and prayer without trying is lazy. Human behavior often ignores the process and they prefer instant things, even though instant ones will not provide maximum results.

Although Bitcoin has the advantage to make any one be independent to manage their wealth. But it can't bring the advantage optimally if there is no proper way or strategy applying on the Bitcoin investment. That's why we must have good understanding about Bitcoin investment firstly before we decide to join the Bitcoin investment.
All actions we take must be based on knowledge and cannot be carried out according to wishes. Bitcoin provides freedom for anyone to reach the stage of perfection and if we are involved in investing without the correct knowledge then it is feared that we will suffer losses. Because there are times when the market reacts to a sharp decline and if this cannot be controlled then someone will try to cut losses by selling the assets they own.

It is in this process that people's psychology starts to play and if they do not have the ability to control their emotions then it is feared that they will do something based on panic. So it is natural that before getting involved in investing or trading someone must study first so that they can get involved correctly.
445  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Implications of War on Individuals on: February 11, 2024, 05:36:02 AM
I am deeply saddened by these wars. I am not taking sides because there are human causalities in both sides
No one wants war because the big effects of war can affect human life in general. War will make things worse because the necessary access could be closed and life would not be much safer in it, so it could affect the economy, health and other sectors.

- do you have any survival tips during war period?
There is almost no way to survive during a war because talking about security is quite problematic, not to mention talking about fulfilling life in the basic needs sector as a basis that needs to be prepared for food needs.

- are there any business that I can do during a period of war so as to sustain my family? Can I still budget, save and earn in Bitcoin?
Saving is not done during war, but you have to do it long before war occurs and vice versa regarding investing in bitcoin. But if your financial structure is a little better, you can still invest in bitcoin as long as internet access and electricity are still available in your country.

- What is the economic impacts on individuals with families and how do I sustain them during war period.
Avoid leaving the house and don't buy ready-to-eat food because it can be expensive, but instead buy basic necessities that can be prepared at home so you can stretch your budget a little. Another way is to interact with the security system that supports the community and ask for a little help with the food they provide so you can save money.
446  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do you have a hard time bringing new people to the forum? on: February 11, 2024, 04:22:33 AM
I picked myself up and proceeded and I consider that one of the best decision of my life. Today I'm more than motivated to help as many people as possible to grasp this whole things as I know the benefits are innumerable. I don't consider it enough to encourage them to read through the forum because I still remember how difficult it was for me as a newbie, so I'm challenged in my spirit that there should be an easier way to go about introducing the entire concept to newbies.  

I don't know if any of you faced this challenge, if yes, how were you able to proceed?  
Basically there is no obligation for us to direct beginners to enter the forum and there are many things that might limit people from getting involved in it. In general, we come to the forum only to look for more profit than a permanent job in the real world because the forum provides a sigcamp that can make money. But if we want to progress, we are also required to understand more things when we are involved in discussions because without us realizing it. Apart from placing the forum as a place to learn more about crypto and this industry, it also has a big influence on our life journey if used properly.

I had some newbies I didn't know directly message me through the forums and they asked me how to rank up. I try to direct them through a general path where they have to be focused, consistent and as active as possible in the forum to learn many things. So that at the right time they will understand how the forum works and what they want can be achieved in the right way.

So we can avoid spending unnecessary money because we can survive without it. And we can start investing in Bitcoin with that money. We have to find a solid income source, even if it is small. So we can go ahead with our bitcoin investment. If we struggle now, we may build a bright future. Even students could save some money from their daily spending and invest in Bitcoin.
There is no success if you don't fight for it, that's the real life in this world because hoping for luck is an effort for lazy people to go through the process. Bitcoin provides freedom for anyone and bitcoin is also more independent for everyone who wants to invest. Determine strategies to make your finances better and stay away from unproductive spending to avoid unnecessary waste. If Bitcoin is considered one of the best investments then we should have a plan to get involved in it.

Without us realizing it developments have provided opportunities for anyone to achieve financial freedom through bitcoin, but there are many people who have not seen this advantage. For those of us who know more about Bitcoin, now there are stages that we continue to strive for as a long-term investment step.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taking a break in gambling on: February 10, 2024, 04:34:43 PM
I know it's sometimes not really easy to quit nor take a break at once but then you shouldn't have to wait till you are bankrupt before you stop because that's almost a sign of addiction which may lead to irresponsible and unhealthy gambling habit which is actually detrimental to both your finances and healthy and by extension the people around you too so you don't have to wait for such to happen to you first. Except you gamble exclusively for fun of which is still not too good because too much of anything or everything cause harm at some point

If you don't want such negative effect of addiction on you then you should quit or take a break at this point before it becomes too late and you are no longer able to to stop meanwhile you have lost so much already to the unhealthy habit, gambling must be done with caution and sense of responsibility.
Gambling addiction will be quite difficult to cure and even if they have nothing they still intend to gamble at all costs. The psychological impact of gambling addiction will indeed end very badly, but it cannot be seen how someone can stop or not, but rather how they position themselves in gambling as an alternative when they want to stop. Gambling responsibly is the desire of many people but some people get stuck with an addiction once they enjoy gambling and eventually find it difficult to stop.

There are times when we need entertainment and occasionally come to gambling places as a way to find new things for inspiration, even though we rarely find such people. But at the same time, you must also be able to control gambling so that it doesn't affect your finances for the worse, especially if your income is unstable.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 10, 2024, 03:38:36 PM
This is a Barcelona fan article or maybe the media fanatic, I don't believe Xabi Alonso will accept an offer from Barcelona which is financially deprived so it will be a little difficult for Xabi to buy players except to develop existing players.
There are rumors that Barcelona will have to sell some of their main players to cover their financial crisis, well this is a new problem if the main players have to be sold it could reduce Barcelona's performance but again not sure Xabi Alonso will accept an offer from Barcelona even though this is just a rumor.
Xabi Alonso is still under contract with Leverkusen and maybe if he wants to leave then the club he goes to will not be Barcelona. The financial problems faced by Barcelona make it impossible to recruit a coach who has a high bargaining value because currently the name Xabi Alonso is of interest to many clubs who want to sign him. Even though Barcelona managed to recruit him, I'm not sure he can take advantage of the transfer market to recruit some of the players he wants because Barcelona is currently experiencing serious financial problems.

Selling several players is also not a solution because it will make them lose strength and the money from selling these players is not necessarily enough to cover the costs of buying other players. I'm not really sure that Xabi Alonso will accept the offer from Barcelona because his career has just started and if he decides something wrong it could affect his future career.
450  Economy / Economics / Re: Opportunities During Economic Downturns? on: February 10, 2024, 02:25:57 PM
Yes, during periods of economic downturn new opportunities for innovation and business development arise.  For example, demand for alternative solutions can fuel the growth of new industries.  However, high costs and taxes can be a barrier to local production.
The presence of the government is very important in this situation because it can help provide services to local product owners such as taxes and high production costs. My country is trying to increase community interest in developing local products and the government is present to provide the necessary assistance, so that local products can help the sales process in the market. Without the presence of the government with regulations that benefit local product developers, I am sure that the community will be quite difficult to make products sell well.

Because there are many foreign products that are sold quite cheaply and the purchase process is also quite easy because of the availability of social media that sells these products. The government must ensure that local products have a place in the market in addition to the production process and promotional levels that can be reached by all existing people, thus local products can compete with foreign products.
451  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin an opportunity like land on: February 10, 2024, 01:37:03 PM
It's never a bad decision to buy land, it's the place where we physically live and there is always a huge demand for it but land is something that average Joe can only dream about. The price of land is very high, you have to work very hard for years to buy a small land, it's not the best investment in terms of how much work you have to put to just get a tiny part of it. Times change, we should always follow innovations because less competition can make us rich easier.
Land is also the best investment because we can build rental houses, shops and other needs that can generate profits. The problem is that at this time the price of land is high enough to make it difficult for people to meet purchases. The times have changed and if we are unable to meet the purchase of land as an investment, Bitcoin is the right choice because people can buy in the amount determined by the capital owned.

Everyone must have a plan in living life because without a plan we will be as difficult as determining finances more stable in the future. Especially now that work is quite difficult to get and if someone does not have a plan in life it will be very dangerous.

How do you guys manage to take a break in gambling? I’m not asking for advice but rather I’m just interested to know what you are doing on your own or if you really do a break.
I am not one of the active gamblers so it is easy for me to stop gambling when I want to stop. But so far it hasn't completely stopped because occasionally I am also interested in betting when my favorite football club is playing. I just rest and don't gamble all the time so there is nothing to explain and another reason I have a job as a place to get rid of boredom so as not to get involved in irresponsible gambling.

I recently decided to take a break since I want to hold my crypto due to its increasing value and I don’t to spend it while it’s giving me passive profit. I just claiming bonus now or anything that is free to still enjoy gambling without risking my money.  
That means you haven't stopped completely and maybe only stopped for a moment because you're focused on crypto and I'm also sure you're not an active gambler. Because if you are an active gambler, it will be very difficult for you to stop, even if you are just resting.
453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 09, 2024, 04:21:39 PM
Manchester City and Liverpool are both favorites in their home match, if they both win the match then nothing will change in the standings this week. Liverpool has a mission to maintain its top position with a 2 point gap from Manchester City for the time being, but Manchester City is also aiming for an important win so that their chances of leading the standings are realistic when playing the postponed match.

Arsenal, who are behind Manchester City, certainly expect the top two teams to lose points in each match, but I don't think Manchester City and Liverpool will lose this match. A defeat or draw will certainly benefit Arsenal, but Arsenal have a more interesting match when they visit the London Olympic Stadium.
I think there is no change in the standings for the next game and the two teams will definitely get a victory because the opponents faced are much easier. Both Everton and Burnley were both in a poor condition in the previous five matches and they faced the top team so that it would be much more difficult to win the match. Now both positions are in the relegation zone and this is not an easy problem for both of them to get out of pressure, especially Liverpool and Manchester City intend to maintain the position of the standings to continue to be in the competition for the title.

Arsenal would want Liverpool and Manchester City to defeat or draw in the match but I am not sure they will lose or the series to face the lower -board team in the relegation zone. Arsenal's hope to pursue the two top teams will definitely be quite constrained in the match because statistically both of them are very favored to come out as winners.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 09, 2024, 03:07:57 PM
Guirassy is really shining right now. and he will be in demand by many clubs. but Stuttgart has to defend it. if they do not get into serious financial problems, it is better not to take financial advantage at this time. it is better to focus on the club's achievements and achievements while maintaining a solid squad.
If Stuttgart sells Guirassy to any club, they could get a cash injection. but they might have difficulty getting a good talent like Guirassy. They have to defend it. because it's not just Liverpool and MU who will approach.
And I'm sure that in the end they will release Guirassy to a club that offers high prices and in modern football it is quite difficult to retain players who are interested in many groups, especially if the club cannot have any impact on the player, for example, such as a domestic title or Champions League title which is almost all players want it. In fact, there is a typical player who is quite easy to persuade to move with a large salary offer from another club.

I also don't see the vision that clubs that are not title contenders will try to keep their shining players and they will definitely be tempted by big offers from other clubs. This is a matter of business and I think almost many clubs will take this opportunity to make big profits from the players they have.
455  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin an opportunity like land on: February 09, 2024, 02:15:16 PM
The potential value growth of the two assets (bitcoin and land) and the risks are different. As a bitcoin user and holder, I remain of the opinion that bitcoin is far more likely to have a more profitable performance than land. However, I also cannot deny that land investment can also provide benefits as long as the location is strategic for development.

I agree that land investment usually requires a large budget if we want a strategic location. Bitcoin is different, you and anyone else can buy it with a minimal budget (eg: $10, $20 and soo on) and it is impossible to buy land with the same budget. But instead of just having bitcoin, then I tend to think having both assets is a good thing as long as we have a budget. This is asset diversification which in turn can minimize risks for investors.
We see growth and indeed land has increased much more in terms of selling prices, but if you want to be fast and full of risk then investing in bitcoin is much better. Land has had a big impact on people and land can also be used as a movable asset such as building buildings, shops or rental houses. There are many benefits to land if it can be utilized and the profits are no less great than bitcoin. Still, if you want to be fast and ready to take risks, Bitcoin is definitely much more likely to get maximum profits in the not too distant future.

The weakness of investing in land is that people cannot buy the amount they want because the land owner will definitely sell the entire amount. It is different from investing in Bitcoin because people can buy in small amounts according to the money they have. This advantage is what makes bitcoin much superior, apart from being able to be purchased in any amount and bitcoin can also maintain its value in the long term.

When a team is trying to survive and looking out for things that work for them, the day they make a normal performance, it becomes like a magic to everyone. If not that the season has isn't how it use to be, Aston Villa will not confront Chelsea and want to go down on them that easily but because it's now a normal thing for the team to lose consistently, we get surprised when they do normal performance in matches, Aston Villa is normal team Chelsea can trash any time.
In this match, Chelsea played much better than Aston Villa and they really gave the impression of an attacking game with high intensity. Luckily when Chelsea tried to put pressure on the Aston Villa players, they couldn't escape the pressure so Chelsea managed to get three goals. When Cheslea should have controlled the game with continuous attacking intensity Aston Villa could have carried out a quick counterattack. The method had to be to cut Chelsea players outside the penalty box, but unfortunately this couldn't be done because Aston Villa played more under pressure

Will the results of the match in the FA Cup affect Aston Villa in the Premier League? Because actually Aston Villa is quite consistent compared to Chelsea and several other big teams. However, this defeat will definitely have a small impact because after all Aston Villa's defeat in the FA Cup was not due to luck but rather the clever strategy that Pochettino implemented in that match.
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Selling a property to play gamble on: February 08, 2024, 03:53:28 PM
No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.
That's a bad decision because selling the property we own to gamble may not necessarily result in winnings and at most risks losing everything. Someone who gambles responsibly will not do that because there are many considerations that make them not choose that path.

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?
Until now I have never sold any property to gamble because I am not an active gambler who always gambles. For me, selling property to gamble is a bad decision because we buy it with difficulty and then sell it easily while engaging in gambling and that is quite ridiculous in my opinion.

The opportunity for Mbappe to win an individual title with Real Madrid is greater than if he stayed with PSG, has large possibility for winning UEFA Champion League trophy with Real Madrid than PSG and he will get more support to be the best players when joining with Real Madrid. But Mbappe have ready with consequence about his payment salary, actually Madrid will reduce the payment salary received by Mbappe with PSG and he will get cut off few percent of his higher salary before.
Depend with Mbappe if want to win more trophies and get chance for winning individual achieving Madrid is the best club for him but he wants priority with higher payment salary he can extends contract with PSG for long term duration.
That's why I said that the opportunity to play at Real Madrid would bring him to the next stage of his individual career. Because this club has a long history and has always been the favorite team in the Champions League, the opportunity for Mbappe to achieve career heights is quite wide open. The decision to cut his salary by a few percent is not a big problem because he can still earn a more decent income by attracting certain sponsors because when he reaches the peak of his career there will be many sponsors who will want to work with him.

We are not saying that PSG is not a great club, but if you look at the current conditions, there is no chance for Mbappe to achieve an individual career or bring the Champions League title to the club. Because there are a lot of preparations that need to be made by the coach and it may take several seasons for PSG to establish itself as one of the teams to be taken into account.
459  Economy / Economics / Re: Opportunities During Economic Downturns? on: February 08, 2024, 02:50:46 PM
Yes. You get it very well. Some of these developing countries are the sole imported of certain goods and because they make a lot of money out of it, they oppressed and suppress any local business that serve as competition.
I'm just trying to study some of the events that have happened in my country in the near future because I also happen to be an economics graduate. Importing goods from abroad is actually not a problem as long as the government can regulate permanent regulations, so that local products do not stop producing due to weak market value and they can compete with foreign products by relying on product quality and much more affordable prices.

These governments have to encourage local production like introducing a grant system for those local companies.A country that is dependent on exports and doesn't develop their local sector will remain stagnant.
The government needs to improve microeconomics because this sector can usually influence local products to grow. Unfortunately, in some countries it is still quite difficult to restrict foreign goods because they come from various social media platforms and according to regulations they are legal to buy and will not cause problems with the law. Luckily in my country regulations have been made regarding the sale of foreign and local products that are bought and sold on social media platforms, so that local products can still compete even though they have not been optimal until now.
460  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin an opportunity like land on: February 08, 2024, 02:28:01 PM
Even we do say that we do tend to buy a small piece of land or lot size but still it wont really be coming so cheap. This is why people would really be going into those alternatives on which it would really be that much more cheaper and this is why they do really end up on dealing up with this market on which its not really that something expensive at all specially on crypto space or buying up Bitcoin on which we could really be able to do it in portions on which it would really be just that understandable  that people are really that making out those optimistic approach into certain levels on which it isnt really that something that we should be doing.

Just like on what others been saying or into those other members been mentioned that as long you do have the money that you could be able to invest on different area then it would be always recommended.
Im not saying that Crypto investment isnt enough but it would be always best that you should really that having that diversification as always on which it could give out that kind of
possibility on getting different income source on which it could give out that opportunity on having  that good financial status or standing.
When someone doesn't have the ability to buy land, they should try investing in Bitcoin because here people can buy in any amount. But what I mean is previous people, especially my parents, who bought several plots of land when the price was much cheaper and now the price of the land has soared to ten times the initial purchase. Land still has enough potential to be invested and perhaps talking about price means that people are quite limited in being able to buy it, in contrast to bitcoin which can be bought in whatever amount they want and according to the finances they have.

For people who have a lot of money, trying several aspects of investment will be much better because it will provide a number of benefits in different sectors, such as buying land or gold as a step to maintain better cash flow. As long as we can take advantage of a number of existing opportunities, we will automatically benefit from the various investment capital we make.
