481  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who says you can't be a millionaire in sports betting? on: December 02, 2023, 08:57:29 PM
I just saw this betslip shared by someone on social media and he was bragging that he turn his builder bet to Php 1 million pesos or equivalent to over $18k.

The bet is only Php 1k or ($18)... see the bet slip below. (check the outcome to see the winning).... Smiley

So you see, those who are preaching that you can't win in gambling, this is for you!

You don't win if you don't try, this gambler for sure kept trying on playing "bet builder", probably even on "parlay", and finally one day he made himself a millionaire. This is a significant success already as not everyone can win a huge amount in gambling, considering the bet was only less than $20.

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?
why i hesitate to put $ 18 to win big prizes, and parlay is my hobby, i even scolded a big prize several times (about a few hundred dollars from parlay), Getting big money from parlay is not a myth, it can be found by anyone, especially those who have good analysis in a soccer match.  but anyone who wants to do a parlay must be aware that even though the rewards received will be good, the chances of winning in parlay are quite small, if your analysis is not good then you will not get anything, especially if the big team you choose turns out to lose to the weak team, it is a big bad luck and many people who are actually deterrent with parlay.

A lot of persons who despise Bitcoin or crypto currencies in General were once involved in them.some of these persons hated Bitcoin and crypto in general because of some common reasons.
Some of these persons may never have ventured the crypto space nor Bitcoin investments before because of some government restrictions against Crypto especially in countries like china etc where the government is strictly against it. Others are just afraid due to possible stories they have heard of people who lost drastically in the crypto space either due to hacks or scam.
However my main interest here is solely towards those who have invested in crypto in the past.Most of these persons hate Bitcoin and other Crypto currencies due to the great loss they suffered from dips in alt coins .most of these losses were as a result of improper understanding and experience before attempting massive investments.Of course some early adopters of Bitcoin who sold or lost access to Their coins have also lost faith in the crypto verse.
My question is should altcoins really be blamed for hate some persons have for Bitcoin due to their loss in alt coins?
why should we blame altcoin?  altcoins remain circulating in the market, so many people will see which asset is better, whether bitcoin or altcoins.  Bitcoin is a crypto asset that is impossible for altcoins to shift even though they claim that the altcoins that have emerged are the best in terms of speed, fees, and so on, but remember that only Bitcoin is a truly decentralized asset and is far from manipulation.  most of the altcoins that appear are only created to take a little of the market away from bitcoin, bitcoin will still be at the top.

Manchester City will be looking forward to hosts Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium this week, we expects the usual humiliation that will be exerted on Spurs from Manchester City. Pep Guardiola and his fired squad will thrash Angelos Postecoglou and his men with ease efforts because we're yet to watch these returning injured players falling back to the team. Tottenham Hotspur have fallen from the race to compete with elite clubs this season, probably for temporary moments but this shouldn't be an event to unmotivated the players from reaching their peak this season.
since the season started, there were only two teams that successfully won the victory against Man City, it was Wolves and Arsenal, but the chances of Tottenham to imitate what Wolves and Arsenal did as they defeated Man City.  Man City is currently only 1 point difference from Arsenal, they will definitely target a big victory against Tottenham tomorrow.

while tomorrow Newcastle will face Man Utd, on paper, the percentage of predictions of Newcastle's victory is very large than MAN UTD, Ten Hag must bring victory to Man Utd, if it is not certain the mockery given by fans to Ten Hag will be very rough lol.

Now this is what I mean: assuming you sold your piece of landform $20k, you use $10-13k to invest in bitcoin and the remaining $7k to buy another land somewhere at a cheap rate. Surely, with years the value of that land will always appreciate so you still have a land (only that it's at a different location) while you invest in bitcoin stead of using (risking) all the money at ones.

Just my two cents.
Even though your idea is good, not everyone is willing to sell their land because there are several factors that limit it, one of which is memories and also the hope that the value of the land will increase many fold, i still remember one of the members here made a good post, for an asset like property is actually not much different from bitcoin, the price will rise if the location is strategic and usually a lot of land will not sell because the location is not strategic and the price is expensive, so don't be surprised that some land will sell for decades to come.  Bitcoin investment is really good and very profitable, but if you want to sell your property, think about it carefully unless you are very sure and reckless.

It's not enough having an investment plan, knowing the right choice to make for every investment defines the investor better. Take for example jumping on every new coin we find on reputable exchange might not be enough guarantee that coin will do well in the future.

Some coin might have good Supply but low liquidity, some might have high market capitalisation but very poor volatility. Although it's hard to predict the accuracy of a coin performance in the near future this why it is always advised to stick to the known which is BTC.

Another option is to spread ones portfolio amongst different coins but ensuring the have a greater percentage in projects with a visible future. It is better to win small and lose less than lose more and win less
this is the reason why you actually only have to invest in bitcoin, even though the majority of altcoins are still cheap, altcoins are centralized assets, while bitcoin is a decentralized asset, wise people will definitely only choose bitcoin as their investment, besides that the liquidity and price volatility will be very high affect the profits from the investment made.  The very important thing that always saves investors from losses is that wise investors will not easily suffer from FOMO and FUD, they have good fundamental analysis and Bitcoin is usually the choice of smart investors, not altcoin.
486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? on: December 01, 2023, 11:26:44 AM
When you have the limits and you have control over your activities it is possible to make regular earning from gambling. From my experience as a gambler who tries to earn from gambling, it is really hard when your capital is small. When you've got atleast $1000 it is possible to make $10 regularly. Beyond that is kind of risk, so based on the capital will be our chance of regular earning.
In fact, if we have capital above $500, we can make a regular profit of more than $50 every day by gambling, but of course we have to have a thorough plan and an accurate strategy because even a few wrong steps can make us lose all the capital we have, usually those who are skilled at sports betting have a regular income from gambling, they are very confident about what they will get, even the capital they use is not small, usually above $500, it is not impossible to get a good and steady income from gambling, But are you sure you can get it and be disciplined for it?

parenting is not an easy thing to do, there are many rich parents who actually want to make their children happy but in reality, it actually makes their children become spoiled and unable to be independent, i often scold my little sister because she always buys luxury things that she didn't really need but when reminded she actually scolded me for taking care of her money lol.  wrongly educating children is the root of poverty, rich children who are not given good moral education by their parents will only become useless people in the future while those born from poor families continue to work hard to change their lives and eventually become rich, life is like a spinning wheel.

I have always advised people not to take gambling seriously but I myself became heavily addicted to live blackjack from stake.com and kept winning and losing. In this case I will not blame the gambling site because they give live cards. I started the game with just $20 but gradually I got addicted to it and wanted to gamble and win bigger amounts by depositing bigger amounts. I lost $1700 playing this way then I decided to play with a much bigger amount and recover all the losses then quit gambling for this I borrowed 270000 BDT ($2180) from the bank and deposited there. But unfortunately I lost them. Now I am financially so weak that it has become very difficult to meet my family expenses and I owe the bank $2180 which will take me a long time to pay off. Now it will take about 2 years for my financial situation to be normal again. Gambling addiction set back my normal life by 2 years. I am a victim of real experience and I am sharing my real experience with you.  Don't make the same mistake I did.  And never decide to gamble with a loan. If you do, your situation may be similar to mine. so beware of gambling
First of all, i'm sorry about the condition you are experiencing, indeed when we are passionate about gambling, we feel that the loan we are going to make will be easy for us to pay in the future, in fact that's not the case at all, we are even overwhelmed to pay it, in fact we have to lose with the loan money which means we have already lost twice as much.  Gambling responsibly is very easy to say, but difficult to carry out, so it requires a strong intention from within us to gamble carefully.  The importance of your finances is now normal, your experience is very inspiring so that beginners in gambling are careful so that they don't get caught in debt tricks for gambling capital.

Financial freedom is usually understood as having achieved a wealth that allows you to live without working for the rest of your life. I care more about, and already enjoy, partial financial freedom, because years of saving and investing give me a freedom of choice that if I didn't have money I wouldn't have. Besides, since I like what I do when I work, I am not obsessed with retiring. I think that if I had enough money not to work for the rest of my life I would work, at least part-time, or otherwise, in projects that I create.
i like your concept of life, you continue to intend to be productive, you don't want to retire at a young age and never work again even if you have a stable income.  For me personally, financial freedom means that i have full control over the money i earn, i am independent in money and don't lack money at certain moments. 

i run a small business and the income i get is enough to meet my daily living needs, i don't feel satisfied with everything i get now, i have strong ambitions to grow further in the future, for now i can say that i have achieved half financial freedom, it never crossed my mind to retire early and vacation in many countries, i have a big responsibility for my business and also my family, my self-worth is my achievements.
491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most gamblers do not believe they can consistently make money, that's why... on: November 27, 2023, 06:55:12 PM
As you've read the thread title, I'll continue the explanation here, as it cannot accommodate additional text. I've come across numerous topics and posts where gamblers express disbelief in the idea of consistently making profit through gambling. It makes me question whether these individuals are truly involved in gambling or if they're posting without the real experiences and knowledge. Personally, I firmly believe that there are people who have achieved real success in gambling. What perplexes me is why many discourage gambling as a means of making money. Instead of outright saying no, they could guide gamblers with the right strategies on how to stay disciplined, enhance skills, minimize the risk of bankruptcy, and increase the chances of winning.

If you're someone who doesn't believe anyone can be profitable in gambling, you might as well consider yourself not welcome in this thread. I'm looking for people who maintain optimism about their chances in gambling so they can share valuable insights.

Now, let's hear your opinion. In 3...2...1... go!
there are many opinions emerging on this topic, it's really interesting, for me gambling is a game that must be played with strategy and discipline because without these two the possibility of winning and still making a profit consistently will be very difficult.  Surely there are many gambling players out there who only gamble occasionally because they are not confident in their own abilities, believe it or not, when you lose gambling today you will not possibly lose tomorrow, you have to be confident in your own abilities, don't 't let it happen doubt makes you fail to achieve big wins when gambling.  Another important thing in gambling is to always play games that you really like, you can't gamble on games that you don't like just because you see there are players making big profits there, focus on your own development and also look for the best strategy in that game.

I am so elated each time I come into this forum and see thousands of members who are already outside the matrix doing great things and doing everything possible to get the novice and beginners up in the crypto world. I want to put it out here Iro know if possible we can get to know the intending coins that one could invest into against 2024. We need a good crypto analyst of wall street standard.
Did you know that Wall Street is a market filled with manipulation and speculators!

Apart from Bitcoin, there is no more decentralization of assets that are truly not controlled by a company or person, altcoins are indeed tempting but full of manipulation, so investing in Altcoins has a much greater risk of loss than investing in Bitcoin.  My advice is that if you really want to invest in altcoins, you have to deepen fundamental analysis and also join broadcasts that are owned by the developers of the altcoin, usually they will give signals when they will carry out a pump and dump scheme, and you should be able to join them at the appropriate time, so you don't miss a moment.
493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling game is not good and everyone should stay away from it on: November 27, 2023, 05:59:35 PM
I can't deny that there are huge numbers of people who involve themselves in gambling and ruin his life including his family by keep losing all the money they have. They inject more money in gambling so that they could recover what they lost but they keep losing continuesly and at a time, they have no money to buy things they need even during emergency situation. Thats why if you can't control gambling that isn't for you. Honestly here in this forum, most of gamblers who discussion about gambling, have main source of income. Even they earn from bounties & signature and become responsible person during gambling. But I don't recommend gambling the person who is always out mind during gambling
OP should have made the title 'gambling is not for everyone, only those with a strong mentality are worthy of gambling'.  When you are going to gamble then the thing you have to prepare is capital, after that is a plan and strategy, if you don't have a plan when gambling then you will gamble uncontrollably, you will definitely continue to spend money to play even though you have run out of all the money you have at that time.  Try to pay attention to people who are bankrupt due to gambling, they are definitely people who have no control over themselves and also have no plans in their gambling activities.  gambling is not a bad activity if you have good control over yourself, winning when gambling can be entertainment for your tired mind.
494  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is it difficult for people to get capital easily? on: November 27, 2023, 05:20:35 PM
there are many start-ups that are currently big and have funding difficulties at the start, even the founders have to work extra hard to get capital from outside parties, all business people who start their business from scratch definitely have the same problem, so funding is actually not a problem.  If you have tried here and there to get capital then never give up on that, often we get miracles at the last moment, your only focus is actually building your personal branding well, and creating a business that is truly promising, if you have fulfilled it with the two conditions above, you will easily get funding from outside parties, hopefully, you can find a way, don't be discouraged if you get rejected at the start of your loan application.
495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 27, 2023, 10:05:47 AM
I didn't have a doubt that the game will end in a draw but I had more hopes that inter would have turned the game around in their favor after that exceptional goal which came in from Lautaro Martinez in the 33rd minutes, Milan's morale got boosted and they had more shots on goal than Juventus and to be honest, I feel the Old Lady would have to settle for second place cause I don't see them winning the Italian league, not with so many competitions coming in from the likes of Napoli, AC Milan and even Roma is even interested. The season is still fresh, maybe they can turn things around. The two have impressive records but their strengths will each be tested when they meet other clubs and I'm curious to see if Juventus will keep their form and win Monza.
the first half in the Juve vs Inter match was really very interesting, after Vlahovic scored a goal in the 27th minute, Inter immediately accelerated their attack and the results were quite effective, Martinez managed to score 1 goal to equalize the score through a good assist from Thuram. 

another match, Roma managed to win 3-1 over Udinese, Dybala and El Shaarawy managed to score the winning goal for Roma in the last minute of the second half, since the first half Roam had already controlled the game, this victory kept Roma firmly in 5th position, however, it's still quite far to get close to Napoli.

The conference their new coach have is much, he thinks it is easy to keep winning streak in this premier league, now he has suffered three defeats which was not part of his coaching career proof because people were saying that he is dangerous and he hardly lose matches at home.
Tottenham need to go back to transfer market, or January transfer window to strengthen their bench because almost all their bench players are not up to standard that is why they started to lose.
Tottenham continues to suffer bitter defeats and this time they lost at home with a narrow score of 2-1, even though Celso managed to score a quick goal in the 22nd minute.  The bad thing i saw Tottenham do was play too aggressively in this match, they forgot that their back line was still far from perfect, in the end in the second half they were not ready for a counter-attack, the defeat that Tottenham received was actually quite painful, especially since they had won in a row at the start season.  i support Tottenham to buy players in the January transfer market, their current squad cannot compete with the teams at the top.  next week tottenham will face man city, will they suffer their fourth defeat in a row!

I hope that a long time from now, most newbies will stop making news from this kind of temporary network congestion, and start focusing more on how to contribute to making the Bitcoin network cleaner and globally adaptable to all, for me I don't see any negativity in bitcoin but rather a lot of opportunity to develop along with Bitcoin as an alternative among another alternatives.
the news about high bitcoin fees is actually not a bad thing imo, in fact, it is good news so that beginners have considerations before investing in bitcoin, i remember when i first bought bitcoin, even though the fees at that time were not too high, however, i was quite surprised that buying Bitcoin requires a fee, Beginners will definitely be well prepared if they know that Bitcoin fees are very fluctuating and can change at any time.  If you have been in Bitcoin for a long time, the current Bitcoin fee will definitely not change. bother you, but if you are still a beginner, you have to prepare yourself for all of that, as time goes by, bitcoin buyers have to be prepared for high bitcoin transaction costs, because when mass adoption occurs then bitcoin fees will not be much different from the current costs.
499  Economy / Speculation / Re: The volatility volumes of Bitcoin is not the Will of man on: November 26, 2023, 08:12:26 PM
I will remain to say that Bitcoin investment is not for everybody but it proffers flexibilities exciting opportunities in both of its investors who had already invested in the Bitcoin and the pre-investors who are yet to invest.

I made this thread for a unification because if Bitcoin systematic acceleration was programmed according to the will of man, the already investors in the industry would definitely hover the volatility of the coin to keep on Bull-Running being sentimental to the markets volume that is to give affordable impressive values to its willing investors (pre-investors). Whereas... They want to keep making it count profits with no lost as a medium of deflation.

I really appreciates it that the will of man is not the will of the volume of Bitcoin volatility.
The bull-run that  was so much impressive to the inventors are on a seize and now willing investors (pre-investors) has its time to take advantage and be pertakers in the Bitcoin market now.
I hope those interested in the Bitcoin investment would realize that the season for them is now and doesn't long for a lower volume else they would be left behind whereas time comes where the volume of the market also have to consider the other phase of favouring the already investors in the Bitcoin industrial markets.
Bitcoin price volatility since Bitcoin was first created is purely due to market demand, not due to manipulation by the creator of Bitcoin or a company that makes Bitcoin, Bitcoin is not a centralized asset, unlike altcoins which can be pumped and dumped at will by the creator of the token.  Soon the halving will happen and if we look at the history of Bitcoin prices every 4 years, we will see that Bitcoin prices will definitely strengthen at that time and that is something that cannot be avoided.  Ordinary people definitely think that the price of bitcoin is manipulated by a company, the price of bitcoin is purely market sentiment, traders must also understand that.

Seeing this again on this platform and with the similar experiences from different people, it is obvious we are being  spied on! Come to think of it, what were we expecting when we ignorantly agree to terms and conditions that grant permissions to Applications to have access to our calls, messages, galleries and others on our devices? As long as we keep granting permissions, nothing changes.
In fact, this has already been discussed in a forum related to user privacy and it is clear that if you agree to an application accessing your memory card, your calls and also your audio then they will definitely collect all your search data and interests so far, application developers actually aim to make more money by placing advertisements on their apk, because only that way they can have more income than just expecting from VIP users.  As long as you don't search for items or things you are interested in in your smartphone browser and don't give random permission to the applications you install, your privacy is safe and you won't be able to be tracked.
