What would be your advice for a pharmacist hoping to create generational wealth in the pharmaceutical industry

And how will those powerful pharmaceutical companies earn billions after this? A powerful industry whose goal is not to create generational wealth, their goal is to sell more drugs and earn more money. Sadly, it's all about the money... and they are making tons of money every second.

And I think that they are working more on generational diseases, pandemics, etc, and it's more likely they will take advice about that... It's how they can provide themselves even more profit, enormous profit.

I also received the same email, it's not the first time I have received a similar email from a casino, but I don't pay any attention to it, I simply ignore it and that's it.
By any chance did this happen recently? Or is it something that happened in the past?

It happens from time to time... Except for this case with BC.Game, which happened on December 30, a few months ago, something similar happened to me with Rocketpot. Or it was more than a few months ago, I couldn't find the mail. Messages in the trash are being deleted after 30 days... I don't even remember the others, I have been gambling in crypto casinos since 2015, and I was active in many casinos and crypto services.

I don’t think the balance in an account is a criteria that hackers use to send phishing emails. My account still has some funds in it yet I didn’t receive any Reset password mail, this user just happened to have exposed his email address one way or another and same with others that have also received it.

And another thing is that they (the hackers) only have his email address they still don’t have the password or login details of the email so it’s impossible for them to have known if his account or his friend’s account have been funded or not, they are simply just trying their luck.

I agree with you, these hacking attempts have nothing to do with the current balance. I received similar messages from casinos/services where I have not been active for a long time and where my balance is zero.
503  Economy / Gambling / Re: Finding a Bug on: December 31, 2023, 10:01:56 PM
How does someone go about reporting a bug to a casino a still hold casino accountable to pay a bounty?

Well, it's hard to be ethical here... finding a bug should get you a reward, but not all casinos have a "bug bounty". So before you report some bug try to speak with their support and if they can refer you to some admins. Before revealing your cards try to talk about it, and maybe you can get something in return. Sadly, not all casino owners/managers are fair. So if you share what you know with them before any deals you can stay without any reward.
504  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your New Year's resolution? on: December 31, 2023, 07:57:00 PM
Well, I don't have any resolutions... but I hope that next year will bring more wins & profits, and if I could finally catch at least one "max win" on any slot it would be wonderful, especially if it was with a higher bet than $0.2. Smiley

Happy New Year and good luck to all active players! Smiley

Email looks real:
Code:
 support@bc.game

I also received the same email, it's not the first time I have received a similar email from a casino, but I don't pay any attention to it, I simply ignore it and that's it.

Be careful if you didn't request a reset password email as bc.game just announced on their site that these emails are a fishing attempt. It should not compromise your account in any way and they also recommend to add 2FA to your account. Just report these emails and ignore them if you receive these mails.

I didn't notice that news on the BC site, but here is the confirmation that something is happening. Anyway, 2FA and ignoring these emails is the right thing to do.

Happy New Year, I hope that we will have more luck and some really big wins next year!  Smiley
506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there long-term profitable sports bettors? on: December 31, 2023, 10:20:02 AM
One ex-colleague went to an early retirement due to some health issues. I didn't see him for a while and I am not sure if he is still playing, but he was crazy. He was alone without family and he used to spend a lot of time in casinos gambling on all sports, and he was winning often... He used to buy drinks & snacks after some big wins,  and he had some crazy big wins.

I believe there are long-term profitable players, but some people don't like to share their gambling winnings for various reasons. I am not one of them, I have good streaks but after that, I have even longer bad streaks.
507  Economy / Gambling / Re: Trustdice: Terrible sportsbook, 5x! wager to withdraw on: December 30, 2023, 08:21:47 PM
Well, that x5 wager is in their terms, point 5.1, but i think that's an abuse too. Moves like that are not to avoid money laundering, is to avoid the users from withdrawing. But is the decision of the users of play here or not, i personally don't like those terms of service, the fact that the max withdrawal each day is $5,000 and $15,000/weeks is another rape for users, if you get a big win you will not even be able to take the money, so, there are multiple reasons to avoid this casino.
What a trap if you don't read those T&C tbh, they're more stricter than my bank on the daily withdrawals but it's their term and gamblers should abide on that. Moreover, it was like hidden in plain sight to gamblers who would think they'll just have their way from other casinos.

I don't think that Seoincorporation is strict here, Trustdoce is taking this too far with x5 wagering requirements before withdrawal (even if it's just with the first deposit) and with minimum daily/weekly withdrawals... I wonder do they have limited max bets as well?

And I wouldn't compare banks with crypto casinos... I understand they have their own rules, but some of these rules are there just to keep depositors/winners on the site as long as they can. I think there are better ways to keep players on the site.

508  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: why do people always play gambling even if they always lose? on: December 30, 2023, 05:41:46 PM
My friend also seems to be happy with slot games maybe because the game is easy so he never wants to try other games like sports betting because he never knows about any sports so he can't follow other gambling to gamble all he has in mind is winning at slot games and get the jackpot, hoping that the results of the jackpot can return the money they have lost because of their losses, while the money they get for gambling on average they work part time to get extra money to pay for their gambling on slots but there are also those who commit crimes such as stealing or borrowing money . everything is done to meet their needs

It's hard to compare slots and sports betting, slots are exciting... the flashing lights, engaging graphics, and the thrill of watching the reels spin create a dynamic gaming experience, and there the chance of hitting a jackpot or unlocking bonus features is especially exciting.

Experienced gamblers know that gambling is full of ups and downs, and if some people just lose they should think about stopping their gambling activities, or they need to think about what they are doing wrong... Nobody wins/loses all the time, for me it's hard to imagine that, but in case some people are so "unlucky" they should just stop and do something else.
509  Economy / Gambling / Re: Guide for newcomers Start a fun and profitable gambling entertainment journey o on: December 30, 2023, 02:04:31 PM
I am not sure if it is a guide or a casino but the title is misleading, isn't it? Well, I am trying to access the website but it is very slow tbh and for a casino, the site has to be much faster than this. For some time I was confused whether it's my system that's getting slower or the site itself is having loading issues. Anyways, there is also a country selection window right when we enter the site and surprisingly there are only three countries. Does it mean I can't play at the casino if I am accessing the same from a different country?
Just making the point so anyone else with the same confusion can understand what is the next step here.

Coming back to guiding the newbies, I think it is better they learn it from their own experience. I mean we have been there all the time, we started at some point, we lost the money and much more. That's how we tailored our experience with the time and then learned how casinos can be fun sometimes but it can be a big loss sometimes. It's better they it themselves. Smiley

It's pretty confusing, and I am not sure why they arranged it like that. After accessing there is that country selection with just 3 countries, but you can click on any we just get redirected to the casino in the English language. Anyway, the site is pretty simple, I didn't notice anything special... I didn't want to lose time with registration, I don't think it's smart to play on this site.

And I agree with you about the title, it's misleading... I think that OP (if he decides to be more active here) needs to rethink his marketing strategy. Of course, if he wishes to attract some players from this forum, like this his casino doesn't look like some serious place.
510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can I dodge KYC using the his medium. on: December 30, 2023, 11:27:45 AM
Is it possible one can dodge KYC verification request after winning a big amount of money and decides not to withdraw a lump sum but bit by bit in smaller amounts. I have read many posts talking about how they wanted to withdraw the money they won but due to the amount they wanted to withdraw was big, they were asked  pass kyc verification because they never did when they first registered.

I don't think anyone can answer this question with certainty, something like that has to happen to you first and then you will see how it goes and if this can pass or not. I am not sure what "big win" is for you, what I know is that some casinos allow high payouts even without KYC, but it depends on several factors, how long have you been active on the site, and how did you manage to score a big win...

Many of us don't like KYC, but we should still be prepared for it in case the casino asks us for it, after all, we are dealing with money here. That is why it is always advised to respect the casino rules, in case of a big win the casino can take advantage of some irregularity and not pay out that win.
511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Martingale betting system on: December 29, 2023, 08:21:02 PM
While many members here speak very negatively about Martingale I will try to shed some positive light... after all, we can't run away from Martingale, one way or another. Simply, after a streak of losses, we will raise bets or odds, and when we do that it's martingale, whatever game we are playing. The good thing about Martingale and some lucky-based games is that we can start from very low min bets, in that case, we can survive longer, but the bad part is that profit will be very low.

Martingale betting system is wrong when the base bet is high, it's stupid to push with high bets if you don't have the balance for that. But when it comes to betting with low amounts and some auto-betting strategies I think that we can't run away from Martingale. That doesn't need to be doubling after every loss, it means that we will raise the bet after losing "some amount" of bets. People who like to set-up auto betting strategies like I do understand what I am talking about.
512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How should Lotteries be categorized? on: December 29, 2023, 07:00:47 PM
...
With all these factors laid in front of you, would you still think that lotteries are supposed to be linked with standard gambling systems, or should we set them to a different system/standard from here on out? Answers please.

And what is a standard gambling system? Each game has a minimum bet and max payout, and depending on the odds we pursue we can calculate our winning chances. The lottery is not different, people play with lottery with some minimum bets and they wish to win x1000000 (more or less), but you can try that with limbo as well... but you know what, if you play limbo with $1 bet you will probably lose $100 (or more) in 10-20 minutes, but if you play the lottery (daily or weekly) $100 will last a lot longer.

I don't like to buy tickets for lotteries and raffles, I like when we can play some games and earn the tickets. It's some crypto thing I guess.

Guys check the Coins.game Telegram channel ASAP! They have a promocode for a Free Spin without wager requirements, no limit of claims and no deposit requirements. The promo code is valid until December 27th. I received 10 spins - per spin value is 0.4$ for my current rank which is Rank 5 and won $12. The number of free spins is based on your Coins.game rank.

I want to post the promocode here but I think it is against the forum rules.

I got a few dollars as well, I was the same rank so I played with the same value per spin, and now I am lvl 6. I got an email today, there's a similar promotion with one condition, we need to deposit $5 and we can claim free spins. The new year is here and promotions are everywhere.

Big thanks to Coins.Games and LM for organizing awesome "Slot Coins.Games Multipliers Mania"! I got the prize, and I can say that I had a lot of fun, and believe it or not I hit the bonus round after a few spins... Don't you love it when it happens?! Smiley I hope we will get the chance to compete again! Good luck all players! Smiley

514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's Your Feeling After You Finish Gambling. on: December 29, 2023, 10:32:48 AM
It's a pretty complicated question and I think it's hard to put all the feelings we can feel after we finish with gambling session in just one word. I am not a "one game" person, so depending on the game I am playing and how I am doing, I can feel negative in some cases. Mostly it's because of some "beginner mistakes" during the game.

But if I need to choose a "one-word answer" to this question I guess it would be satisfaction... As I already like to gamble and if I can afford it after the end I feel satisfied, it's especially nice if I end up with some profit in my pocket. And if I lose, I wish myself better luck next time.
515  Economy / Economics / Re: Why must you used such money to purchased a car? on: December 28, 2023, 07:29:36 PM

I guess this is the most important question, millions of what currency? And I doubt that OP talks about dollars or euros...
He used the dollar sign multiple times so I’m guessing he really meant USD. The amount and the age of his friend is very puzzling. The only explanation to that kind of wealth is old money. I don’t think it is anyone’s business how another choose to spend their money. Even though OP means well for his friend, it may come off as jealousy. ...

Man, he can use any sign he wants, but it's probably some mistake... I checked the entire thread page by page, and someone already shared it but I can do it again:



There are no such expensive cars... and if there were, do you think that someone who hangs out with so rich people would be here? And if there is a model that costs this much, it is probably a collector's car, in itself that car is an investment and will cost even more in the future.

But how can someone at the age of 20 years used $28 millions to purchased a car that is not going to bring income to he, when we have some decentralized investment you can invest such amount of money in the bear season and have hope of making more money that will reach you to start other business that will be fetching you cool money.
28$ million of what currency? Dollar that it must not be...

I guess this is the most important question, millions of what currency? And I doubt that OP talks about dollars or euros...

We all have failed investments... for sure there are smarter things than buying a car, but in some way, a car can also serve to make some money. Some people buy a nice car and and then earn from transportation (taxi, uber, or whatever is available in some specific city, or region).
I also have friends who love cars more than anything, they spend their last money on a car and improvements, it's a passion for cars. I personally don't have it, but I understand people who do. In any case, I don't think it's a big loss... the car will certainly lose value over the years, but if it's well cared for and maintained, it won't be much. So it's not the end of the world, it's not worth it to lose a good friend because of this.

Has anyone tried this casino? Nice ANN thread and if you pay attention to the comments, you will see that the casino representative answered some questions very well, looks like they are serious about this casino, I guess we all know how hard it can be to convince people in the fairness of PvP games and attract enough people. Unfortunately, I can't register, the casino is blocked in my region, but it seems like a good site with interesting PvP games.
519  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun, is it a lie that we tell ourselves? on: December 27, 2023, 08:07:29 PM
...
I know that it's said that you should gamble the amount that you can afford to loose, but will you call it a true fun when you know that there's a higher probability of losing your bet?

But there's fun in trying to beat the odds... Gambling with the amount we can afford to lose is exactly that, we know that we are playing against the odds and we need to be ready to lose, but there's that chance, sometimes a tiny one, that we can pull it off and make some profit.

So it's not a complete lie that we gamble for fun, we gamble and we are trying to win of course, we would like to win as big as possible... but a real gambler knows that winning is not always possible and that gambling is full of ups and downs. So we need to enjoy the process, up or down we have fun chasing the big prize! Good luck all the players! Smiley

Well, I had some nice wins in the first days, but I ran out of luck and busted all the winnings... Smiley I blame the high fees for that, in one moment I wanted to withdraw at least something, but I didn't want to pay a 1 mBTC fee. What a degen I am, what to say. I played like crazy and made some pretty bold moves, I wanted to make even more. Anyway, I had a few crazy gambling days, maybe I will hit something really big one day. Smiley
That's natural, I've experienced the same many times Smiley greed is hard to control and we will always find something to blame when we cant control our greed LOL.
Even if your balance is not BTC, I think you will still do the same thing and you will have nothing to blame except yourself Smiley
At least you will get something back from the contest as you are the first winner and you'll get $200.
Next time you should avoid depositing with bitcoin especially when the fee is crazy, so you will have no worry about high fee and you can withdraw your winning first.


That's natural for some of us, that part is making me smile and cry at the same time. And I don't blame anyone else than myself and my greediness, I raised bets and I wanted to make even more... it's not the first and I can bet it's not the last time, it's easy to get carried away while we gamble and win. I wanted to move some money at one moment, but I am sure that I would make another deposit sooner or later... so it's the same thing.

Well, I am the winner this time and that is a great thing. Many times I spent a few deposits and I didn't win anything, slots can be crazy sometimes! Anyway, good luck to all the players, I hope that we will have a chance to compete again! Smiley
