Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ? If not, how much you think is sufficient to retire as Gambling winning ?
Gambling can never give you money for retirement because it is not a job and any gambler that wins big will definitely continue gambling because he sees it as an opportunity to win more money since he already have won big. It is only addicted gamblers that needs to quit gambling but a responsible gambler will continue gambling because he sees gambling as fun. The fact remains that as a gambler, you will lose more than you win and there is no hope for retirement funds in gambling. |

I completely agree that each of the newbie accumulators need to mostly focus on DCA, and if they want to try to wait and time dips, they also should be putting deadlines on themselves, so for example, if they have a weekly DCA, and they want to try to time the dip within each week, then they try to time their BTC buy for when the price seems to be most dipped within the week, but if the price is only going up, then they are going to have to have a deadline.. such as Saturday at noon or whatever time in which their definition of the week ends and the new week begins, so they make themselves buy by the deadline if they had not bought earlier in the week.
This is a good strategy to use to see if you can buy at the low price from the initial price during the week and I haven't thought of this since I started my DCA approach. I am also looking at it from this way that since I am a newbie who has already made up my mind to hodli for a long term and at the same time increase my bitcoin portfolio. Looking for the dip wouldn't be necessary as it might even make you ignore the opportunity to buy at that moment that the funds is available at the available price and when you don't, you might be unlucky that the price will then move above the price that you were suppose to buy. Looking for the dip during the week might not be helpful, buy immediately you have the money since you are on a long term drive, because the price different wouldn't be much. Where this will be very helpful will be for investors that are buying once in a month, they can have the opportunity to take their time to look for the dip price of bitcoin within the month to take advantage of and also have a time limit like you said. Accumulating persistently is what really matters. On the other hand if an investor wants to take advantage of the dip, then he should always save some unwanted and unexpected funds to buy at dip. I am not sure if I would call it lack of knowledge or even lack of experience, but some kind of lack of confidence and appreciation of the value of acting rather than fucking around trying to figure out which way the BTC price is going to go in the short term..
I will also say that it is lack of determination and zeal to get started. Also I think that such people are more of short term mindset. So I just clear that for some Bitcoin is all about and for some others altcoins matter.
It like you are a shitcoin investor, this one that you are coming here to hype shitcoin. If it is true, you should better sell those shitcoin of your and invest the money on bitcoin, if not you will regret it. You cannot compare superior to inferior. Like @JJG said if you can't do without shitcoin, let it be below 10% of your investment portfolio. Whatever, you have your own decision to make. |

I will not be happy if she does that all the time but if it is once in a while, then that wouldn't be a problem because it shows that she is a responsible gambler and there will no side effect.
From the look of this woman in the bet shop, it shows that she is not a responsible gambler because she has gambled with more than the amount that she can afford to lose and that is why you can see her thinking and frustrated that she cannot even leave the bet shop. I will not be happy if such person is my grandma because it can have big effect on her health. Old people don't need much thinking to avoid high blood pressure.

OP, when we were in college the text books that we read were written by people that are no longer in the world i.e they are dead but that didn't stop people from using these text books because they have all the information that the students needs to learn that subject, and till date those books are still recommended in schools for students to have them in order for them to read on their own and have the knowledge of that subject, and how will you get these books, you are to buy them.
This is how those quality posts are even though the OP are no longer active, as long as you learnt something from the post, and you see it that it deserves merit, don't hesitate to merit them. This is why old posts are not deleted in the forum because they can be useful to forum members anytime. I have also learnt from a lot of inactive users post.

What a disappointment for Napoli in the first half as they were unable to break the deadlock. Torino played brilliantly in the first half as they were able to find the back of the net on the 43rd minutes with a beautiful goal from Sanabria who was at the right position at the right time, and he was able to turn in the middle of Napoli two defenders to place the goalkeeper in the last angle of the right side of the post.
He got the assist from Zapata. It was a beautiful way to end the first half. After the break Napoli has been vulnerable to clubs that they clash with. Napoli needs to improve their game in the second half if they want to win this match, because Torino had more chances of scoring than them.
Torino 1-0 Napoli
No hope for Napoli today, a red card and another goal from Torino in the 2nd half sealed the winning for Torino. Napoli hasnt win any away games since December 2023, and their next away schedule is to visit Lazio and Milan. Mazzochi, has been given a red card just five minutes in the second half after he did a hard tackle on Torino's player. This is a big advantage for Torino to win the game, because they are now one man down. This is a big moment for Torino,as Vlasic has taken a powerful shot close to the box of Napoli, and the ball went straight into the post within few seconds. Mazzochi has messed up this match by conceiving a red card to punish Napoli. Torino now has a high hope of winning this match, and this is their best opportunity to have 3 points from this game. Torino is rising high and they are Napoli is giving them morale to score more goals. Alessandro Buongiorno has scored the third goal on the 66th minutes and after VAR checking, the goals stands. 3-0 against the visitors. |

AC Milan is playing a solid game against Empoli and what would add 3 important points to their account. They would finally have a good streak without defeat again.
Milan is on the lead with 2-0 in the first half with an early goal scored by Ruben Lottus on the 11th minutes after he got an assist from Raphael Leao. What a great finish from Lottus. The second goal was scored by Giroud with a PK and he stylishly net the post on the 31st minutes of the game, to put Milan in a better position of winning the game. Milan took control of the first half by gaining possession and also scoring two goals to show that they are ready to get 3 points from today's game. The second half will tell if Empoli will be able to equalize the goals or conceive more goals by their visitors. I believe that Milan will win this match from the look of things in the first half because I don't think that Empoli will be able to resist their pressure in the second half. The second half has being quite interesting and finally Milan were able to score their last goal to seal up their victory on the 87th minutes of the game. It was a brilliant strike from Traore to fnd the back of the net after Milan has an opportunity to counter Empoli and it was two against one. This is the first goal for Traore has scored in Seria A and the second goal in all competitions. Milan victory has made them four points close to Juventus. It was a wonderful victory for Milan and if the can continue in this form they might still be able to be on the second position if Juventus take their games for granted. |

That's the mistake many investors makes about Bitcoin investment, they won't buy won't buy when there is a price correction. But they will be jumping to buy when they start seeing the green candles or when the price correction might have ended and the price has moved up. The price got to over $45k and went back to $42k, there are some investors who are still out there waiting and confused to buy now or wait more, as they still hoping that there will be more dip. When they wait and the price suddenly jump to $46k or above that's when they will buy. Sometimes I wonder their wisdom or who is advising them.
Most investors tend just to watch the correction happen without doing anything so they are often too late to buy bitcoin. And most of them only started buying bitcoin when the bitcoin price started turning green because they thought it would soon rise again. But what often happens is that the price of bitcoin does get a green candle and makes the price go up a little but then the price goes back down. What's the point op being a spectator on something you are not benefiting from? Bitcoin investment is not a sporting activities where we come to cheer others who are benefiting from it, by making the right call once there is a slight opportunity in price dip. The moment the opportunity presents itself grab it and wait. It is better that way than waiting for your perfect imaginary price to buy. No one has control of the market, and there are opportunities we might not see again. There are those who are still waiting for price to drop to $35k, just imagine how long they have been waiting and how long they will keep waiting. But there was a time when the price was at that region and they were still watching. Instead of being a spectator be a participant. Only active participants gets the results. Some people are very funny they have plans to invest in bitcoin but they prefer to speculate and see if they can get to a price of their choice before buying, forgetting that the longer you wait, the less bitcoin you will have in your portfolio. Watching the market is only to discourage you from getting started because you wil think that it is not yet the right time. It is better to get yourself occupied with accumulating and growing your bitcoin portfolio with DCA method regularly and also think of other method that will help based on your cash inflow, rather than speculating on other investors profit and loss. The market is open to welcome new investors at all time so don't be a waiter but an investor. |

I've seen debt escalate out of control. Loan sharks are merciless and unethical. The more you owe, the harder it is to escape. Gambling should be fun, not a money-making technique. A frenzied drive to make quick money, especially with borrowed cash, replaces the essence with a risky game of risk and debt The problem is, that the people who are supposed to understand this thing do not understand it. Or they understand it when it is too late already. People do not take loans on the first day. At first, they become addicted to gambling and then start losing their savings money. At first, they get broke, and then start to take loans from friends and family members. Then they choose banks or other financial companies to get loans. A gambler supposed to understand that they are already addicted and that should be the stop point for them. But unfortunately, most of them do not even realize that they are already addicted. Family and Friends could have notice this and possibliy help them so they don't get addicted. This is why we should try to examine our actions towards gambling time to time to see if we are doing it rightly or wrongly. The moment a gambler have started gambling a lot that he always get broke, he should know that he has entered in a high realm of addiction and such person should quit gambling so that he can put himself together again for him to know if he will continue with gambling or not. The worst of it is that if a gambler starts having the urge gamble, when he doesn't have any funds on him and start taking money from people to gamble, it means that gambler will end up frustrating his life because he will end up losing everything both family and properties because he will become irresponsible. |

As stated by @tranthidung, it is the latest updates that rules saying such clubs cannot participate in European competitions has been relaxed and by 2023/2024 season any of such clubs would partake in the competitions, if they qualify because they have seen it that some investors have shares in two clubs, using football as their investment.
We will see to this by next season because I know that it is possible for two clubs own by the same company to qualify this season.

They may be right or wrong. In sportbet, I don't think that there is any particular time in the week that is for the strong or underdogs. What I know is that a strong team has a higher chance of winning the underdog because they are well experienced than the under dogs and they also have quality players, this is why I will not accept with this conclusion.
It is always once in a while that we see underdogs winning a strong team and if it happens like that and you were lucky to bet on the underdog team, you will win a good amount of money. Gambling is based on luck and nobody knows when he will be lucky, this is why you should have you don't need to gamble with an amount that will cause you pain.

I wouldn't place my bet on people's determination, especially this one which is the approval of spot ETF. This is because this approval issue didn't start today but it has being since onset, about SEC approval of spot ETF and it didn't come to pass. Gamblers can bet on any event of their choice as long as money is involved, and gamblers uses everything they see as an opportunity to gamble for profit.
I don't like to bet on these type of events where my skill wouldn't be put in use, but a guess work. Instead of this, I will gamble on slot machines. I love watching and having fun when betting and I don't see this kind of bet entertaining.

Federal Government of Nigeria ordered the central bank of Nigeria CBN to ban all the cryptocurrency related services in the country in the year 2021 and this has been a discussion among the cryptocurrency enthusiasts though the banned didn't affect them that much because they were all using peer_to_peer(p2p) transaction system. It was restricted from using public service like bank and cryptocurrency related statement in the public space.
And based on the restriction, many were arrested because they violated the restriction law, police arrested some people across the country yet Nigerian youths were agitating and insisting to adopt bitcoin in the country and finally, the newly elected president Tinubu, in the month of November asked the newly appointed CBN governor to accept cryptocurrency in the country, and there was a mini jubilation in the cryptocurrency ecosystem world in the country.
Therefore, now that the long waited expectation has come, what is the next thing to do in the country concerning cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is not yet a legal tender in the country, so many businesses are still lagging behind, what's the next step now?
I will prefer to use the word bitcoin and not cryptocurrency because bitcoin is the king of them all Bitcoin must not be a legal tender before it can be used as a payment method. The important thing is that bitcoin has been approved in the country for people to adopt. I wouldn't say that I would advise businesses to start accepting bitcoin now because of the high rate transaction fee. What is needed is to let bitcoin grow gradually because in our country, the youths are always after new innovation so that they can take advantage of the opportunity attaches to it. What I mean is that some youths are already into bitcoin and they will tell their friends who is interested to learn just like forum members have being giving bitcoin awareness in their neighborhood. Bitcoin will speak for itself. |

This happens to most gamblers because gambling is something that we can't look into the future to know when we are going to win big. This is why you will see it that they day you didn't stake, that is when the game will drop that you have being chasing. This is why it is called gamble because you are betting on what the probability of it happening is 50-50.
I wouldn't blame you because you did the right thing. Nobody will sit down and start gambling on someone else prediction, when you know that you can make your own predictions yourself and might become lucky. Did you witness the person that he said he gave the game and won that big sum of money, he might be lying to you so that you will not see him and avoid his games, or who knows maybe his luck and yours don't match.

I think its a lot harder when you are really in the actual situation, but if you really have that strong mentality to stop when its necessary is a very great weapon in gambling having it when winning and losing will help you a lot, and all gambler should have that kind of mindset.
if all gamblers will be able to control themselves successfully then all casino will go bankrupt. they are profitable because of this, that we can not control our mind while losing that is the advantage to the casino after the edge they collect. yes, it will be best to stop at the right time but it's very hard whole losing our mind completely stops and we start to take higher bets then after losing it all, we think... would had withdrawn. When you have the mindset that you can make profit from your gambling activities, it becomes a problem to stop even when you are winning because you feel that you are in your lucky day or you understand the game. This is what lure us into more losses because we don't know when to stop playing. I always prefer to stop when I am winning or losing as long as I have noticed that my gambling time is up. This enables me to be able to adjust my losses and also limits my gambling activities. When a gambler has won some bets, it is better that he stops and think of playing the next day instead of playing over and over again, this is the same with when you are losing. |

I do not like betting undergo against strong clubs. Strong clubs will have low odds while underdogs will have higher odds but which may not worth going for. Although sometimes I can go for underdog, but the only reason I can do that is when the strong club is not performing good in its previous matches and making me to have doubt as the strong club is losing to most matches it recently played.
Betting on underdog against a strong club is like throwing away your bet purposely but sometimes we get it wrong as gamble is something that is based on luck, sometimes the underdog wins the game and anyone that took the risk to bet on them will win big. I have been lucky just once when I bet on an underdog club with 7 odds and I won big that day, I will say it was my luck and not that it normally happen, because for sure we all know that a strong club will definitely win the game. |
