521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Low cost but effective solutions to gambling addiction on: January 18, 2024, 05:34:45 PM
One of the solutions which is recommended by most gamblers on this forum for gambling addiction is "Therapy" . Professional help in the form of therapy. It is good and very effective but how many persons can actually afford it? There is a fee for each session that lasts for a duration of 60minutes. And there are more than one session. Therapy for gambling addiction is expensive. How can those who are unemployed afford it?
There are free services that active gamblers can take advantage of, although it is not the same for paid people as for free ones. The question is how can unemployed people or people who don't have money get addicted to gambling? Don't addicted gamblers usually have the money to get involved in it because there is no way for people to be addicted to gambling but don't have the money to gamble.

The therapy in question can also be carried out by the family at home, although it is not the same as the pattern used by professional therapy, but at least simple things can be done alone at home with the family.

I think he has decided to do the right thing. Maybe it is time for him to take a break. And probably it will be better for him in the long run as well. I think Roma could actually have given a chance to him till the end of the season. But maybe they want better results and they will bring in a new coach. But I have heard that they are not planning to bring in any new coach at this moment because De Rossi is probably going to be the coach for Roma till the end of the season. I don't think that was actually a good decision to make. But it has already been done. I think if he had given more money, he could have brought in better results.
Jose Mourinho was fired by AS Roma so the decision to leave was not entirely his wish and I also don't understand why AS Roma made the decision to fire Jose Mourinho before the season ended without preparation for the new coach they were going to recruit. Jose Mourinho is a coach who has a big name on the European football scene and it is not difficult for him to train other teams because there are many clubs who are willing to accept him as a coach.

In the Premier League there are several clubs who are rumored to be trying to offer a new job to Jose Mourinho and perhaps there are a number of other clubs outside the Premier League who also intend to recruit him. It was not a good decision to fire Jose Mourinho and choose De Rossi as the main coach even though he will be the coach until the end of this season.

I think they most importantly need to win the games they will play against the other teams that are threatened to end their season in the relegation zone. Of course it is a nice to have if they can beat other teams from the upper half of the table, but the most important points are those against their competitors from the lower half of the table.

Within the last 7 games of the season their opponents are Burnley, Nottingham, Brentford, Luton Town and Sheffield. That's when the season will be most important for Everton.  
The team you mentioned also has the desire to win the match and they also don't want to be in the relegation zone so everyone will play for a win or at least a draw. Everton should be able to get out of the zone more easily, but their inconsistent performance means everything can change. Nottingham and Brentford are not easy to beat because they also have to win if they don't want to be in the relegation zone so they will try the same thing as Everton.

If can't win in all the remaining matches then a draw is enough, but it's also important to get several wins to avoid unforeseen possibilities. Being above one level in the relegation zone is not an easy thing because if they want to be safe they have to be in 14th or 15th position in the final standings.

There is a big chance that Mou could become the next England manager, he ever mentioned it back in 2023.
Here is the link: https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-jose-mourinho-clear-plan-become-next-england-boss-decision-roma-future

This guy know alot about the style of English football and Mou is the only person who ever handle different big teams in the Premier League (Manutd, Chelsea and Tottenham)
It is difficult to predict Jose Mourinho's future because this controversial coach always provides unexpected surprises and even though the media tries to make news about the club he will work with next. England is a familiar place for The Special One and perhaps he has passed many stories there, so it is not surprising when he returns to train a club in the Premier League. But if you want something different, the Saudi Arabian League becomes a new story for him and football starts to develop there as usual.

Let's wait and see how the story goes and if he wants to return to coach another club, I would prefer him to choose the Saudi Arabian League as his next place. Even though this league is not that extraordinary, the future there will be much more tempting for Jose Mourinho.

We can conclude that money will be in the right condition when someone can use it and perhaps the mindset of women and men has a different structure, whether they are young or old. Men usually handle finances differently from women and there are times when the two are often out of sync when combined together, for example how each partner handles money in everyday life with different needs.

The point is that I agree that age and gender will see money differently in the process. Even though money is essentially the same and the only difference is how someone uses it to buy, invest, do business or other ways. Sources of income can be seen from how aggressively a person can produce and opportunities may also differ.
526  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't only pray for mass adoption, start HODLING!! on: January 17, 2024, 04:17:47 PM
I'm not saying anyone should go on start telling people about how much bitcoin they have accumulated, all I'm saying is start your own bitcoin journey if you haven't, stop praying for good things when your not planning on beign a partaker
Because they don't have a lot of financial resources, people decide to use the DCA pattern to invest regularly and only in this way can people add to their portfolio of bitcoin assets. It's different when people have the ability to accumulate large amounts at once and it might be much easier for them to add to their portfolio in a short time at much cheaper accumulation conditions. But when it comes to not having many opportunities, people have to take advantage of the existing potential and DCA is the easiest way to continue collecting regularly.

The problem lies not in the amount of accumulation but rather how someone can take advantage of opportunities and perhaps the method taken can be adjusted to each individual's abilities. This part needs to be taken because when opportunities exist but are not utilized then we lose everything.
527  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto investment vs real estate investment : Which one more dependable? on: January 14, 2024, 08:21:43 AM
Investing in real estate is now starting to be made easier for people who want to do it. To reach the total price, I may pay in installments to arrive at the total price.
For those with a standard monthly income, investing in real estate is not suitable because this investment sector is not enough with little capital as you said.

If you think about the profits that real estate investors will get, then it will be quite large if this type of investment is made in developing countries.
This needs to be looked at because capital is sometimes enough to determine the direction of investments we make in sectors other than bitcoin, the property sector may have a big attraction for young entrepreneurs today, but if we move in this field we need a network so that our business can run well. Real estate does not have opportunities for everyone, especially for the younger generation who are not financially stable because moving in this field requires quite a large amount of capital.

Property does have a very prominent attraction nowadays because almost many young people are starting to get into it and if in our opinion there is an opportunity to develop, maybe it's time to learn the concept of working in property so that we can make maximum profits.

If you have capital of $2500 then it is best to buy bitcoin first and after that just hold it until it reaches the next ATH. When investing in Bitcoin succeeds in providing big profits for you, then try thinking about real estate, because you have a certain amount of money that can give way to real estate investment.
$2500 is too little return to be had when Bitcoin hits ATH. From this amount, if it continues to be added consistently every time, the profit from price returns will be greater than %.
For the initial stage of purchasing, this may be enough and then he can repurchase using certain methods and strategies, rather than using the money in other sectors that do not have great potential. The more you know how to invest in Bitcoin, the greater the profits you will receive.
528  Economy / Economics / Re: 4 COMMON MISTAKES PEOPLE MADE WITH THEIR FINANCES IN THE PAST YEARS on: January 14, 2024, 07:39:16 AM
And changing bad habits into better ones is not easy and not a fast process as long as the young generation has no goals and no motivation to change.
What I mean by that is that goals and motivation are needed as a starting point, which is then done with the skills you have.
If daily habits depend on parents, such as the need to eat and drink, education is 100% thought of by the parents, it is very difficult to change unless you are in a really tight situation. At that time his brain will think and that's when it all starts.
The bad thing in question might be how a person can change his lifestyle for the better, for example having criteria about how to place goals in the self -development process in the skill area. The purpose and motivation to change must be in the background as a goal to change lifestyle for the better, without good preparation and financial plans generation of young people will be increasingly difficult to develop because at this time the availability of jobs is so difficult.

There are limits when someone depends on parents and maybe parents will only bear our burden to the high school or college level education process. After that we are required to find our own source of income by working, from this, at the beginning we began to be responsible for ourselves before going to a more responsible level of life.
529  Economy / Economics / Re: 4 COMMON MISTAKES PEOPLE MADE WITH THEIR FINANCES IN THE PAST YEARS on: January 13, 2024, 07:31:29 PM
That's the thing. It's easy to set up and maintain healthy financial habits if you have a nice surplus of your regular income over your expenses. But all the advice regarding emergency fund and investing is pointless when one does not earn enough to meet their needs.
That's why probably the most valuable advice, especially for younger people, is to "invest in yourself", i.e. get a set of marketable skills which will boost your income and make it way easier to manage your money or maybe even retire at relatively young age. Being on a low income your entire life can be a real nightmare.
In essence we can easily manage our expenses and income if we have a good financial structure, although sometimes people who have fairly stable income are much more wasteful in spending on things they consider important. An emergency fund is still considered much more important even if someone cannot generate a stable income because at least the amount of instability can be used for much more productive things. Investing in themselves is related to what they are able to do and perhaps there is a need to have self-skills.

I agree with that statement and indeed the younger generation must be able to improve their skills to make money because without skills it will be much more difficult for someone to reach the stage of financial freedom through whatever job they are involved in. Managing money is not as easy as it sounds, but that doesn't mean it's impossible to change bad habits into better and more targeted ones.
530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 13, 2024, 05:07:00 PM
Chelsea want to win so bad even though they need to sacrifice 5 players to receive yellow cards, honestly it's shame, the match held in Chelsea's home and they're struggle to win. They need to play carefully or they will lose many players, they're currently lack of players because some of them are injured and absence due to international league.

Tomorrow should the most interesting match in this week.
Mauricio Pochettino missed several good moments when Chelsea could have control the match but in the end they lost concentration which ended in defeat. After experiencing a surprising defeat in the EFL Cup against Middlesbrough, Mauricio Pochettino seemed to be looking for weaknesses that needed to be corrected and unfortunately, even though he managed to win against Fulham, he did not show how Chelsea could achieve a promising victory.

Without a penalty maybe Chelsea would get a draw against Fulham and this should be an evaluation point because so far Chelsea have lost their sharpness in terms of finishing to score goals. There were two big opportunities that were simply missed and this is about how the forwards can take advantage of them to score goals.
531  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you willing to bet $50 spin for a chance to win $42 million? on: January 13, 2024, 04:01:25 PM
Exactly, We don't know the profile of the person who gambled and get that huge jackpot, whether he was a rich person or someone who happened to use some of his money to take risks, but managed to get the jackpot. If the person is rich, then even spending $10,000 will not be a problem to bet $50. it's hard to put perspective on this. but some that us need to remember is, we cannot chase this luck, whatever our status.
I agree with you on one thing and that is that it is impossible to pursue because luck cannot possibly always be on our side and because the characteristics of gambling are always synonymous with luck, it will be much more difficult to get luck consistently. I remember playing at high dominoes as my favorite game in the past and there I learned a lot about how someone gets a jackpot which is always unpredictable and unfortunately it happens when we try to lower the bet on a much smaller table.

For people who have a good or stable source of income, there will definitely be no problem taking betting opportunities of $50 or even more. Apart from having enough perspective, sometimes gamblers handle this activity differently and there are times when they are influenced by the uncertainty of getting a win or a jackpot.
532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 13, 2024, 03:29:33 PM
Currently, all we can see are only rumors. Mbappe has still shown no sign of wanting to leave PSG, but he is also not in talks for a new contract.  This is something everyone is curious about, not only PSG but also clubs that might be interested in Mbappe, such as Madrid.
The possibility that could justify this scenario is that Madrid sold Vinicius to bring in Mbappe. that's what we hear, but will Madrid throw away their young star? Does Madrid also lack the funds to bring in Mbappe? If that happens, Man United shouldn't be Vinicius' place. that's what I expected.
I don't think Real Madrid will sell Vinicius to bring in Mbappe because that is not the desired scenario and Real Madrid also does not have financial problems at the moment so to bring in Mbappe there is no need to sell Vinicius. This is just a rumor and may be the same as Mbappe's condition in delaying his move from PSG or it could also be a scenario that Real Madrid is preparing for PSG to let him go at a price that is not too expensive.

When Mbappe does not want to sign a new contract, a free transfer will automatically occur and Real Madrid have the ability to play this strategy and perhaps in the past they have done it to other players. So let's just wait for the terms of the agreement between Mbappe, Real Madrid and PSG because I'm sure this will become clearer before the transfer window closes.

Crypto investment vs real estate investment : Which one more dependable in the future
Though have been in the crypto space for quite some time now, I knew little about crypto. A friend of mine just introduced me to real estate investment.
Which one should I go for with a capital less than $2500?
Both have differences and the approach to getting involved in them also has differences in the amount of capital we will invest. Real Estate requires a lot of money because investment in this sector cannot be done with small capital, while investment in crypto can be adjusted to the capital we have. But if asked which is more reliable then in my opinion both have good opportunities in the future, because over time both will be quite needed for an investment system that is able to maintain value.

If you have capital of $2500 then it is best to buy bitcoin first and after that just hold it until it reaches the next ATH. When investing in Bitcoin succeeds in providing big profits for you, then try thinking about real estate, because you have a certain amount of money that can give way to real estate investment.
534  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Just HODL on: January 12, 2024, 05:16:01 PM
Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.  
I agree more with saying bitcoin than crypto in general because when you say something in general there are far more misunderstandings. Basically, investing in Bitcoin will not cause anyone to suffer losses as long as they know how to invest correctly. Trading is much more difficult to do when one does not understand how and that is why it is better to invest rather than trade. But it comes back to each individual and if both can be done simultaneously it would be much better because it could open two directions to achieve profits.

Bitcoin has the strength to survive in the long term and the Hold concept is usually the best choice for people who hold it because if we are able to be patient until Bitcoin reaches the next ATH then the investment value we have from Bitcoin assets will increase.
535  Economy / Economics / Re: How to survive hyperinflation? on: January 12, 2024, 04:51:06 PM
How do you strategically navigate hyperinflation to safeguard your financial well-being?
Spend according to your needs and increase your income to make money because that way we will get out of the hyperinflation problem that is occurring. The problem is that this is not as easy as it is discussed because it requires a concept to live it and if someone does not have a good lifestyle it will make the condition even more problematic.

Would you invest on crypto, stocks or household when the cash is not the king? 
I prefer investing in bitcoin compared to stocks or real estate because investing in bitcoin can be done with the amount we want and if our finances are not large then only investing in bitcoin is much more reliable. Saving money is unproductive because it loses value and money will not produce anything if saved.
536  Economy / Economics / Re: 4 COMMON MISTAKES PEOPLE MADE WITH THEIR FINANCES IN THE PAST YEARS on: January 12, 2024, 04:29:37 PM
That's true currently looking for or getting a job is difficult, because this is what happens in my country. The large number of unemployed cannot be hidden because job opportunities are limited too. but if we have a good mindset of course we must be able to take advantage of current technological developments, because current technological developments make everything easy to access or do,  including making money  there are many ways to make money by utilizing current technological developments but for this it depends on yourself who carries it out.
You and anyone else will decide to live independently through alternative paths and currently the availability of work does not have to be an excuse for anyone not to develop. Even though jobs are difficult to find, people have to find ways to get out of the economic pressure and existing technological developments make it easier for people to find income. But it takes skill and you have to understand the technology itself because when we know how to make money it will be easy to do it.

I agree with you, if basic needs or basic needs have been met in the sense that there are no major shortages then investment can be carried out consistently, which must also be owned because if investments are carried out inconsistently, they are vulnerable to losses,  and before making an investment, of course there must be learning, understanding and knowledge about investment because it is impossible to make an investment without the slightest knowledge, it is the same as lying.
Basically what makes people become more burdened is because they are unable to meet their family's needs, so pessimistic thoughts will arise about doing anything. So before getting involved in many things such as investment, we should look at the position of the financial structure first and then look for patterns to get involved in investment. When our daily needs are met properly, when we invest, we don't have a burden, so we can focus more and not place risks in it.
537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 11, 2024, 04:50:36 PM
Don't understand why they say Manchester City is no longer a strong team while still in the top 4? They also have one game left if they win they are only second then where is Manchester City not strong? It's a bit strange.
I also do not understand how people say Man City is no longer a strong team even though at this time they are in third place in the standings with one match they haven't played.

Indeed Manchester City have lost 3 times but the decline of this team does not mean it is not strong in theory this team is still tough and difficult to beat, I believe Pep Guardiola can still overcome this and be able to compete again with Liverpool even though they are a little behind points but they can still catch up.

Now the players have recovered including Kevin De Bruyne who has appeared, only Haaland is uncertain but I'm sure it won't be long and he can play.
Three defeats are a natural thing to happen in the Premier League and this does not show Man City as a weak club, on the contrary we can see how Tottenham who was previously unbeaten actually declined after getting his first defeat when facing Chelsea. Man City is still one of the champion candidates because the difference in points with the top of the standings is not far so there is still a great opportunity to pursue.

If you can choose, Haaland's injury is better than Kevin De Bruyne's because his role is quite big in the team. Without Haaland, Man City has a number of other strikers who can replace him, but the loss of Kevin De Bruyne is quite visible because he lost a player who was able to regulate the rhythm of the game.
538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who is the money manager? is it a casino or game provider? on: January 11, 2024, 03:52:57 PM
Most of the games in online casinos come from third parties or game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Bgaming, Pgsoft, Play'N Go, etc. When playing at any casino, we will use their services. Perhaps only the house edge games are fully owned and powered by the casino

So who actually manages finances? is it the casino itself or the game provider? Does the casino only get a commission from the game provider or buy the game license from the game provider?
Those who manage the casino as the holder of full authority over finances and third parties or game providers will get paid according to the agreed percentage. Regarding the provision of buying games or just getting a license, it just depends on the agreement and most of the time what happens is that the game provider gets the commission and the casino pays it. Logically in relation to financial matters, it is the owner of the company who holds full power because the goods provider cannot possibly hold power regarding finances.

Or it could depend on how the agreement is built between the casino owner and the game provider. To be honest, I don't really know and my assumptions are as explained above, because it is impossible for casino owners to want to be paid by game providers.
539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you willing to bet $50 spin for a chance to win $42 million? on: January 11, 2024, 02:58:50 PM
I don't think it's a big deal to stake $50 on a game with potential winning of $42 million provided a gambler gave the money to do so but what I'll not do is to advise anyone to do because I won't even fo that myself in my current financial status. $42 million isn't a small money and for a gambling company to put up such mouthwatering amount for their customers to win , I think it'll be almost impossible to win it at just one try.

No betting company will want such amount of money to leave their account easily and that's why they'll not want their customers to win it until they've fully recovered their money. So to me it's a way of attracting people to stake their money when they know it won't be an easy win
Not only you and maybe most gamblers also don't have a problem risking $50 on the games they play because that's what they're used to doing. Talking about companies that have a good reputation in gambling, it is normal to pay big winnings obtained by customers because they will not sacrifice their reputation by cheating, except for certain companies that do not have a clear reputation. I think there are times when companies spend as much money on winners who hit the jackpot as there are many people who have already won.

Apart from that we can see in the lottery how people get big wins and the company keeps paying them according to the winnings. The level of a company's reputation is seen in how they handle it and more rationally, it may be difficult to get a big win in the jackpot category, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Timo Werner is back in the Premier League again by a six-month loan transfer to Tottenham.  Smiley

I must admit that he wasn't good when he was playing for Chelsea. He wasn't very lucky at the same time as well but he wasted enormous opportunities too. After coming back to Leipzig I was curious about whether there would be an improvement in his performance as he was great back there before. But nothing changed. Now I don't know whether we can see him making a good contribution to Tottenham honestly.  Sad  I hope he can prove me wrong about it.
Tottenham doesn't seem to have any intention of looking for another player who is more developed than Timo Werner because if you look at his performance, he is less consistent. At Chelsea he didn't have the ability to bring something good to the team so he was sold again. Who knows what the Tottenham coach is expecting and maybe he has been monitoring Timo Werner's progress so he decided on the loan option. Hopefully Timo Werner he can provide change for Tottenham because so far Tottenham have lost their best performance like at the start of the season.

But after returning to Leipzig his performance has improved and perhaps it is for that reason that Tottenham intend to loan him out in the current transfer market. After all, this is just a loan and if Timo Werner doesn't provide something good then Tottenham can return him to Leipzig after his contract ends.
