To gamble or invest? Ofcourse to invest because in gambling world once you lose your money, it is absolutely gone. While in investing you will earn even your at the bed, at the work or no matter what. You are earning more money because of the interest of your invest.

Yes, in gambling when you once lose you will have hard time to recover but in investment when you lose, still you can stand up again and take time to recover your losses. I personally prefer to invest because this is the best thing for me and I know that this will give me good profit in the end unlike with gambling it will give me frustration in the end.

If you're not smart enough then don't gamble, gambling is not about strategy either and its not about luck too, its about how will you control yourself for greed in winning then losing everything. No matter how much you win in gambling if you don't have a control then you will always end up losing. In investment we are talking about a real gamble because the chance of winning and losing is 50/50 while in online gambling you only have around 27% chance of winning even if it says 50%.
Smart people are risk takers and they succeed because they know how to manage the risk, gambling is risky but you have a chance to win if you have the skills. With that, you need to evaluate yourself and stick to what you can only, losing is part of the game but if you understand that fully, you will not have to recover your loses as you will be matured enough to understand that the money you lose is worth of the fun you get.

Safety should be considered in wallet type selection. Android os is still not assuring. If the wallet is working towards safety and system is vulnerable, so will be most of the app software on the OS.
It's safety over convenience, for now I am only using a my laptop to access my account and I don't feel worried about my account even without 2FA because I don't hold a considerable amount of bitcoin. However, by the time 2FA will be upgraded to the system, I will certainly update my account for better security.

It's not impossible to become rich in bitcoin, as long as you are willing to take risk in everything you do. It's not always a sunny day for us who do bitcoin. There is in need of full effort if you really want to earn higher. Yes, at first, it is hard. We earn only a little amount from signature campaigns. But as long as you continue to pursue your goal of becoming rich in bitcoin, it will be possible. We can use those people we know who succeeded from bitcoin as our motivation.
This is a proven experiment, there are people who became rich in gambling so it's possible. We will become rich if we will pursue our dreams and we cannot do it easily as that requires dedication and devotion on whatever you plan to do. Some were able to buy cheap bitcoins in the past and we have seen how the price substantially grow that is why they make money. For us, it's never too late yet, we have to hold longer or be a day trader if we have the skills.

Indiana Pacers 107 - 100 Utah Jazz


Jazz deserve losses whenever they wear those ridiculous green alternative road uniforms. Three straight road games in green ... three straight road losses. What joker in the organization is dressing these guys like bell peppers night after night.

LOL! That was so superstitious of you, I don't think that is the main reason why they lose, we can simply say that the Pacers did well at home like they normally do. Jazz are good really in road and in home but you cannot erase the reality that shit happens and losing streak happen to the jazz.
Currently they are on a 3 losing streak and that is good for us gamblers because we know Jazz are gonna win in the next game.

Yes it could be. It has the potential but I think it has a long way to go because I know it will face many technical issues before that happens. The timing of bitcoin is perfect for our modern generation and the best criteria for making it the new era of currency.
If there will be no more manipulation by our government bitcoin's progress will be continues, the thing is they want to maintain their standing in this world and it is their interest to control everything. Bitcoin was created being decentralized by nature, that is anti government if you would ask me and I don't think this will prosper with a big hindrance coming from the government laws and regulations.
5786  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What were your experiences with Bitcoin when you first started? on: March 20, 2017, 12:47:01 PM
My first experience with bitcoin is thru faucets since I was a newbie previous years I feel nervous from the first time I engage with it because I don't really know what to do and how to earn bitcoin from the very first place but luckily sooner I have discovered this forum and give me good learnings on all stuffs related to bitcoin.
I think it's the most popular when we are just a newbie in the bitcoin world, we think we can make easy money in faucets without exerting too much of our effort. Good thing we explored more and we mature in life, we found out that there is a better way to earn that we do not need to spend more time like we allocate with faucets, this forum really helps me a lot, I learn every earing opportunity and now I'm picking up my interest which is trading.
5787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: March 20, 2017, 07:22:45 AM
In past i used to be addict towards gambling and keep on adding more bitcoin to wallet when i lost what i have deposited before. But these days i only play for fun so i will just leave after i lost certain amount. I have lost much in slots and satoshimines being addictive.
Well if you became an addicted before, meaning it became hard for you to flee yourself into gambling. at least you overcome your weakness into that comfort zone. congrats anyway! that's the effect of applying self control in gambling.

I agree that it is hard to avoid gambling once you are addicted to it. Gambling addiction does not have cure, it only subside but it can be trigger anytime if you exposed yourself again and again to gambling.  To avoid being addicted, we need to be in control of everything. Money, time, bet, and most of all ourselves.

The basic rule in gambling is to have a self control and to know when to exit the game and if you can do that then it can give you better results but most of the gambler forgets to follow this rule which make them to make losses in long run.

It is not most of the gamblers will forget this rule but they can't do it because of greediness. Everyone will start with some game plan but they can't implement it and they will realise only after losing all money. So the best option is always gamble with small amount of bankroll then no need to worry much about when to exit the game and also you can fully concentrate on game and enjoy your game.
That's for sure and it happen's a lot I doubt if no one has ever experience violating their game plan, the real deal is when you are in the situation of gambling because your emotion will be tested and you will know how strong you are. Actually we are good in advising others to control their emotion and play for fun but sometimes we do mistakes like this also, and as usual it will result to another bigger loses.
5788  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When do you plan to sell? on: March 20, 2017, 07:01:52 AM
As we can observe, bitcoin price has dumped below 1000$ so its best to hold the price as of now. I would sell it once I already earn profit. Because I believe bitcoin price will rise again.
As of this time, I see it's trading above $1,000 now and that is already a great development since it's a sign that it's going to rise once again.
The thing is, an investor will really sell if he is afraid of the dump, I'm not new to the community and I know everything is just temporary and honestly
although it's quite scary but I like every time situation like this happens.
5789  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: you need to overcome your fear of losing money on: March 19, 2017, 06:24:32 AM
If we overcomed that fear we will lose our money, fear is a big force that stops you when you gamble.. Just remember that every single emotion is important
You gamble in trading because you know you had a better chance and if you keep learning from your mistakes, overtime you will be able to master trading. The fear is normal but you have a bigger fear if you are not so confident with what you are doing and you can build that confidence if you are trading relying in your knowledge, trading is not gambling so probably you have a bigger chance to succeed than in gambling.
5790  Economy / Economics / Re: Spending Bitcoins on: March 19, 2017, 06:10:39 AM
Spending bitcoins is difficult in my area as I don't find any place who accepts bitcoin as a payment method and even people have never heard about bitcoins so mostly I hold my bitcoins in my wallet and sometimes spend it for mobile top up or skype recharge as the usage of bitcoin is very limited.
I do not think it necessary to impose a spending bitcoin in your region if no one accepts bitcoin as a payment method. better exchange fiat to then go shopping. I think it would be easier Do not make it difficult for yourself
Time will just come that bitcoin will be widely used and I don't think it will happen easy, the massive adoption will take time but massive adoption would not mean that a bigger population or the majority will be able to use bitcoin. Still I believe that in terms of simplicity, nothing can beat fiat that is why until now people are still using it.
5791  Economy / Economics / Re: Which one is good, trading or investing? on: March 19, 2017, 12:51:50 AM
Trading is investing.

When you are trading no matter how short of a period of time you hold your wealth in a particular stock or altcoin you are still investing in that vehicle because you are still risking to lose All your money on that investment.

Trading is dangerous especially with margin, personally I do not have the balls of steel to trade with altcoin as they are so damn volatile.

See what's best for you yourself.

Agreed trading and investing goes hand in hand as even if you want to trade then you are investing your money in buying some altcoins so there is not much difference in both of them and the only common thing among them is that they both are risky in nature.
Risky but we can make a good money with trading and investing, even in real life there so much risk but if we will always play safe we will never achieve financial freedom. We all seek for a better future that we can live a comfortable life but without the right action we will not be taken to somewhere we want to be in life. In times there are problems that we may encounter in investing but this is a long journey and everything is a learning process.
5792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 19, 2017, 12:15:56 AM
Golden State Warriors vs Milwaukee Bucks , bet for Golden State Warriors to win this game .
I'll go big for the Milwaukee bucks on this one, I like the way they play after the all star break and I think they will make a good effort to make it to the playoffs. Also, the under points of this game looks good to me, I will definitely take it with them on ML.
I have parlayed Milwaukee Bucks with Cavaliers, Wizards, and Bulls, if this wins I will be very rich tonight.lol Grin
5793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Whether anyone believe???? on: March 16, 2017, 02:37:40 PM
I do not believe how, it is useless, your hit rate is extremely rare, you may never hit, and you will have to spend some money every day, that money will be extremely large If it's been a long time, it's very expensive, and you probably will not hit your whole life. It will only be as a form of savings, you send money there, and now you get your stuff, because if you want to hit, I insist the money you spent is equivalent to the number. Money you won it.
Savings is different, you spend money in lottery because you can afford what you spent and there is nothing wrong with that. What I see is wrong is when you believe that you can win without thinking properly how do you arrive that strategy. Lottery is worst that dice in terms of chances, I know a lot of people fall for the trap to win a big amount of money and keep spending everyday repeating the same number combination day by day, some will be lucky but I'm sure while one will be lucky to become millionaire, there are also millions who are losing everyday, overall it's the lottery outlet who are making money.
5794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: March 16, 2017, 02:19:43 PM
It's very easy to turn gambling into a profitable activity. There are more ways to do it but just choose what suits you. The first thing, I did know is by being an owner of a casino and that will make gambling as profitable for your part. And another thing is nothing but being an investor to a bankroll casino that will give you an advantage too.

Indeed by becoming the owner of one of the existing gambling is a greater advantage over having to play in the gambling, but I need to know if you would like to be the owner of the gambling Centre then things you should do is heavier compared to the players in the gambling. One of them is making a very safe system to avoid hacking and also make a game system that fit and suitable for everyone, and the most important thing is promotion, and your Ministry
 
Everything is possible if you have the money, the sad thing is we are gambling because we do not have that kind of capital to start on our own. We are hoping someday we will be able to win a big amount from gambling to be able to realize our dream to run a business and because we are living on that dream we will not be profitable in gambling as our chance of winning is low compared to a gambling site who's continually making good money.
5795  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: March 16, 2017, 02:00:26 PM
better to invest in bitcoin, gold maybe more secure, but bitcoin has more potential to grow

saving money in the bank, will only mean losing them in the long-term with the current high inflation

A good idea thanks i was also planning on saving money but i was also scared what will happen at this rate because of high inflation,I also want to find a place where my little money would be safe than sorry.

Well i agree. For you little amount, i think it's best to invest it in btc. You're saving at the same time your savings grow at a much faster rate than in banks so you can consider your savings as your investment at the same time. This is what's great with btc. It not just having a saving or investment but it allows you to have both
You have a better chance to be more profitable if you will do both investment and savings, however you need to find a good investment for your money. Bitcoin is good and that is one of the reason why we are in this community, we do not need to find anything else, let's convert some of our money to invest in bitcoin and hold it longer, there is nothing to chance your strategy it works in the past and will continue to be effective in the future.
5796  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the economy situation in your country that bad? on: March 16, 2017, 12:32:17 PM
Unfortunately, we have a lot of unemployed. Prices are constantly rising and it is very hard to afford the minimum required. People in our country lose hope for a good future.

It is really bad, now in third-world countries, It is normal that poor people have lose the hope for bright future, even they are doing more struggle to others. But everything is too expensive that's why they could not afford it, even they couldn't afford their children's education's expenses. But in my believe God help those who help themselves. Don't lose the hope and believe on God.     
We should not lose hope even we are struggling on living and you are right God will help us if we do help ourself first because no matter how you pray if you wont do nothing its still useless. This is the reality of life theres rich and theres poor and i consider myself belonged on the mid-range and still finding ways to have a better life.
Living in a poor country is not a hindrance for our success, we have our own destiny and we control our destiny, God will provide to those who ask and work hard for it. In my country the economic situation is not good but I make it as an inspiration to work harder to be able to help to the economy also, as soon as I will be able to reach my desired money, I will use it as capital to create my own company and that will create jobs as well.
5797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: March 16, 2017, 12:19:53 PM
gambling help your life if you won a prize in large quantities continuously, but basically it was a very difficult case, because only a fraction of the gambler who managed to make it happen. yeah, but it also has a big risk, because if it fails, you're just making life more and be in trouble.

gambling will help your life if you win the prize continuously, even if you only get a small gift. Win will continue to make steady your finances, make your financial incremented. It was very help. The problem is, a continuous winning is a very difficult thing. Let alone for a great gift, a small gift is very difficult. It takes an enormous fortune.
Gambling might give you a win but in general it will not help you in life as eventually you will still lose in the long run. Maybe the fun will stay if you do it for fun but if it's for profit, I would say you will only enjoy a temporary happiness as time will come you will experience losing again and it would be worst if you will not control yourself. Making profit is only for those who are extremely good as it's their job and they are good at it.
5798  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do I educate myself on bitcoin for investing? on: March 16, 2017, 11:59:56 AM
You might have found some trading organisations to invest in seamlessly, but i think invest in trading contains risk anyways.
Everything has a risk, even living a simple life in this world has a risk. In investing or trading, you put your money to grow it while you are not certain with the results, well, that is a very risky because you are gambling with the future of your venture. To minimize the risk and to increases your chances to succeed, it's necessary that you do not just jump to it with being equip with the full knowledge, eventually you will learn as you go along with your journey.
5799  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will save the elite. on: March 15, 2017, 07:51:51 AM
I have to respect your opinion but I'm pretty sure bitcoin will be for everyone, those who like to be rich and those rich who want to be richer.
Bitcoin offers equal opportunity and if you believe it will only make the rich richer, how would you describe those early adopters who are already millionaires or billionaires now.

Think about that, that is a complex example and to be realistic, bitcoin will not eliminate the corrupt central bank as no way it can compete with fiat.
5800  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is no longer a currency on: March 15, 2017, 07:27:48 AM
I think that bitcoin is currency I mean cryptocurrency not only currency what means that bitcoin price is fast changing what is good for investing in bitcoin so I dont think that we can call bitcoin investment when cryptocurrency=investment.
It seems to me that the rapid change in prices can only scare off investors in bitcoin. Such jumps is dangerous. The price may increase and an equally fast fall.
While the volatility on bitcoin price may scare off those investors that prefer to take safe investments for many bitcoin offers the opportunity to earn big in a liquid market that moves extremely fast and give to them the best chances of making money fast.

volatility of bitcoin NEVER scares off any investors. it scares of average Joes who want to buy bitcoin and use it as a currency. the investors know what volatility is and how they can take advantage of it which means the love it and will invest because of this volatility.
but in the end we need stability of price if we are to move forward and see mass adoption.
That's their favorite actually especially the day traders, like me because of the volatility of bitcoin I take the opportunity to buy low and sell high even in a short period of time and that gives a good margin of profit if you can do the right timing. Whatever people think, I focus more on the long term investment and it's just a bonus for me when I earn in short term trades although it's not all the time.

Bitcoin is volatile but its movement is going up, time is only our friend if we will employ the right patience before we sell for a good profit.
