Dont let yourself be ending up on sleeping on the streets just because of the wrong decision you had made. People do really make out learnings on the time that they would be experiencing unfortunate events
or those devastating moments on their lives. If they wont really be changing up their behavior then this would really be ending up on a lifetime regret and dont let
these things happen into you.

Worse things like this can happen if you failed to balance your budget, overspending your money can lead you to a certain thing that you will regret after, keep yourself from what you need and not with what you want.

A basic principle that will allow you to adjust to the budget that you can have in a daily or up to monthly
expenses. With good money management, there's a chance that you may be able to save and after that, have
a good investment to add up with your savings.

Regarding the bull run, history hasn't failed as yet, so I do not think that you have to worry about what if the next bull run is not going to come. If that is the case they still though, good to hold and acquire cheap bitcoin, and just wait for it to go up.
I tend to agree with your last point; accumulate now and wait until the price goes up. It is true that current market conditions are very unstable and tend to be easily corrected just because of some negative things that are happening out there, but I am sure that the halving that will occur in 2024 will encourage more demand which in turn will make the price of bitcoin even more expensive.

At this time all investors need to be patient and maintain their long-term investment plans. The accumulation stage is still continuing and they need to maximize this opportunity to accumulate, but of course as long as they still have a budget.

That's really the only thing to do in this era, especially now that the volatility of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is so aggressive that it's very difficult to keep up if you do day trading in the crypto space. Especially if you don't know enough about it.

So, what is the best thing to do, then? Of course, it is said that it is better to save while the market situation is not good, and at least in this way, think that you are accumulating savings for your future, your family, and others. But if you can do it short-term, it's fine as long as you know what you're going to do.

Better to keep holding and if you still have enough spare, it's also possible to buy for more and maybe lessen the chance
of dealing with day trading or any future trade position.

The market is so volatile it may harm your investment if you don't know what you are doing
while placing your position.

It might go in any possible direction better to anticipate and make your decision when you
already reached your target.

This is a very normal condition and we all feel the same thing when we feel tired but want to entertain ourselves by gambling but the results are bad when our focus is too bad when we feel our body is tired so our mind cant think of a strategy to win the bet and things are worse When someone starts to get tired of forcing themselves to gamble, they will only be provoked by emotions and spend all their existing funds on gambling.
In contrast to a healthy state of mind and not feeling tired, it is more comfortable and we can think of any strategy that can give us a greater chance of winning if we are lucky and other positive things, when our minds are cool, we can always control our emotions so as not to continue betting.

The ultimate aim of the creation of the gambling was to entertain the gamblers and to earn some small money for it.Because the gambling site owner spending some money to build the site and spending huge money for the marketing.The gambler may win the big money,if they had enough luck.The win or loss based on the good time of the gamblers,the healthy mind will enable you to make the quick decision in the gambling.The important factor in the gambling was taking the quick decision on the betting.The strategy will play the next role in the winning of the betting at the time of playing gambling.

It's business and for sure the design is to earn. Yup, sometimes the gambler may win some but that's not always going to happen
casino may allow you to win, but the time will come that it will be sucked away again from you.

You need to pay for your entertainment, but you need to balance. You should always be in control
and not let your emotions to dominate you, as most of the time when you are losing you wanted
to keep playing for more, adding more money and regret after you got emptied.

Oops, something is interesting that has been reported just now. Dwight is in the meeting with the Golden State Warriors. Maybe he's been heard and this is it for his comeback to the NBA. This wall that has been tweeting funnily from Taiwan seems to be serious now about being acquired by the Dub nation.
(https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-dwight-howard-possible-nba-return)

Just in case this really happens hopefully they will win the championship to help Chris Paul get one. However I'm not sure if Dwight Howard would really contribute to him or the whole organization because let's be honest at this time Howard is far different from his era. Dwight Howard has had two finals appearances and one of them resulted in a championship. He went from losing to the Lakers to winning a championship when he joined the Lakers like Kevin Durant does when losing to Warriors.

In my honest opinion, Dwight will never going to be something of a huge help for the Warriors to get back in the finals, and he'll never going to be the team's starting center, It should be Looney who will start and he is going to be a back up center.
The kind of play he had will not going to be effective in todays NBA game. I hope the Warriors will going to find a gem for them to be relevant again so we can see them again in the finals.



I agree as Looney will still be on the rotation and if ever Howard will be signed by the Warriors, he will have lesser minutes as Warriors can also do an experiment to play small.

Instead of having Looney or Howard, they can go with Green, that if CP3 will be included with their starting 5,
Chance to see Splash bros with Green, Wiggins and CP3. Small lineup that will focus with good offense to counter
whatever the system of their opponents.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the stars that Milwaukee has and is it true that Giannis will really leave Milwaukee to look for opportunities with another team that could potentially take him to the top and win the NBA?
Giannis Antetokounmpo have the credits he deserved, I think is time for him to push forward and make more accomplishments in the league. He is a brilliant NBA player and has couples of achievements in the game. It's quite unfortunate that Milwaukee can't give him the necessary accolades he deserves, rather he needs to push for an exits from the team and explore more alternatives elsewhere. There's more time for him to developed into a more prominent player and ofcourse, all clubs would want him because he's a crucial player.
He has done his job with the Bucks since he already delivered a championship. He has played 10 seasons with his current team, and I believe the management will understand his decision. They can't keep a player forever, especially if they can't provide what he wants, which is another championship. Considering the current lineup of the Bucks, I'm doubtful they will win another championship, so Giannis's decision seems justified.

Yes, although they tried to sign Middleton and Lopez to say with the Bucks, I think it will not be enough though. Not sure but maybe there are some teams that after winning their first ring, something has change inside within them and this perhaps might have happen to the Bucks.

Although Giannis got injured, they have a big chance to win vs Miami in the first round but they were upset and you can see the frustration of Giannis that he is really mad to himself for not winning that series. So it seems he was burn already and so he wanted to get out and be a winner.

More on how Bucks will perform as Giannis is open with his statement, he wanted to win another title and it's up to the management if how they will going to bring that in terms of giving Giannis the squad that he wanted to have,

For sure this will continue regarding to what will be the next update in terms of Giannis future inside Bucks
management, maybe yes or maybe he will stay depending on what will be the negotiation between his camp
and the management of Bucks.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A person who won 600k$ in lottery on: September 15, 2023, 08:10:45 AM

Actually, when we talk about the desire to get a big jackpot from gambling, even if it is a lottery bet, almost all gamblers want it, but it is very difficult to get a big jackpot, even in lottery it is very difficult to get a big win because this lottery bet really only depends on luck, like this thread. when someone is very lucky to get a jackpot of 600k, while a lottery bettor has been buying lottery tickets for a long time, even almost every day for several years and has never gotten the jackpot as you said.

With this in mind I can take the hidden meaning here that everything depends on the level of luck of each gambler.
But it would be very interesting if we occasionally bought lottery tickets for a small amount every day to try our luck because no one would have thought that one day luck would come to us.

The lottery only give huge win like this,their was many game in the gambling.But not all the game will give the gambler like 600k as the winning amount.This 600k win will be the desire of the many of the gamblers,but the fact is only who had the luck will win this big amount.Because if the gambler make this 600k in the fixed deposit,he may get good interest.If we consider the bank giving them 5% for the money,So he will get 30k dollars as the interest in the regular basic.

Yup, lottery is where this kind of winning that you can have when you gamble. If you are lucky and you manage to pick the right sets of numbers, then expect to earn this huge amount of money.

But I think there are other things that you can use your money, instead of putting it all in the bank and earn interest
better to find good investment and businesses that will allow you to earn from the money that you win, very practical
to find ways of making more money instead of using it in a luxury way of life.
67  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Typical scenario when you are losing on: September 15, 2023, 07:13:21 AM
The last one.

It's like when I am already winning and I think that I can win some more so I play and look for more other games to bet with. It's hard to control that moment when you're winning.

I think that's even harder when you're on that part than when you're losing because that's the drive for you to stop. Unlike when you're winning, you just can't stop because you're thinking more positive.

smiling while reading your post, as I also have this kind of mentality when playing, instead of quitting while still in positive that kind of thinking that maybe I'll try for one last time to add some more with my earnings.

Then you know mostly things will start the other way, you lose, then you will try to bet again till you notice
that you are already empty and there's nothing in your wallet anymore, and then it's just regret and nothing
else..
68  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: September 15, 2023, 06:44:40 AM
I've experienced big loss and I've made myself on the right track. However I wasn't able to keep myself away from the gambling habit for a longer time period. What makes me better than the past is the losing amount. Compared to the old days I've set my limits and never go beyond. This keeps my living undisturbed in all situations and I've shared my losing experience in a thread so that someone into hard addiction could get out of it.
If you are able to decrease your losses progressively each cycle of addiction you face, it means you are already doing progress, therefore it should encourage you to keep trying to completely get rid of new addiction cycles futurely. We don't defeat our biggest inner monsters at once and we can't win every battles. It's a long process which takes time and endurance from our side. Never lose hope and always believe you have the potential to improve yourself as individual, by defeating the addictions which disturb you and don't let you reach further!

Yeah, each time you manage to control and not following what your desire wants you to do, that's something to learn and continue
to accomplish, each small step is a new beginning to learn for more.

You just need to be open and willing to continue being progressive, hard but doable and, if in case, you
manage to work it out, the chance to fulfil your willingness to manage your gambling is way ahead of you.

For me consistency is my problem,
Yup I know why and where my money is draining or why I am having trouble saving up.
I could budget when I needed but when I have my salary or have my money on my hand I tend to spend more than I needed.
Don't get me wrong I am not addicted to anything or have some vices, it is just that I tend to buy more foods than what I really needed.
For example if I know that I have a tight budget till my next pay day or salary I would buy some food and cook it for my self to lessen the expenses and I would choose the cheapest frozen or process food, but when I have money I tend to order up and buy the foods and buy whatever I want to eat without hesitation or looking at it's price.
Just try to spend on what you think it will be enough for you , buying excessive food might make nothing left to be in your sqvings, just buy what will be enough for you then save the remaining. Savings is not easy, it takes much discipline to succeed in saving money, one just needs to be conscious on how money is been spent because if you are carried away you might just end up spending all the money that you should have saved. Discipline and consciousness is the secrete in making successful savings.

Buy what you need and always check your budget before spending. It's best to work on it to make sure that you will not be short in your
next month's budget, over spending not just affecting your budget in that month, but also in the corresponding month.

Better to assess your money movement, there's always an issue if you don't check your capabilities
and just throwing your money when you receive your paycheck.

According to betting companies, the championship favorite of the 2023-24 season is Boston Celtics!
Maybe they can be this year, but it's hard to say for sure, because other teams are also favorites this year. One of my favorites is Phoenix Suns.

How does it be like that when they already messed up every time also they seem like getting rust compared to the Phoenix Suns who acquired many more star players to bring them to another championship game. Maybe it is because the Boston Celtics don't have much competition in the East because the Nuggets and Lakers are in the West. that's what they are counting here.

We never know, but it's too early for that and seems that they are just providing this kind of prediction to hype the team as early as now. Maybe the competition in the east is different from the west.

Super teams mostly around the west, which are composed of well-known teams and stars that are playing from this
side, while there is also good competition in the east, but most of the time they are just facing common rivals
and compete with each repeatedly.

~snip~
Agree with this. It's really acceptance and willingness to overcome gambling addiction. If these are not going to ne the attitude of the gambler that's been addicted, he won't be better in time because the traits are crucial while undergoing treatment. You have to tell other people about your condition, at least the ones very close to you so that they can guide and support you throughout your treatment and medication process. It's definitely hard to do it all alone and without support system to check up on you and keep you in track. Consistency and the way how you do it to manage preventing relapse is essential.
It's difficult to do it alone, but perhaps someone can do it alone. Such a person has a strong will and enthusiasm to cure his gambling addiction and can get through it alone. Not many can do it, while others will only fall deeper into gambling without anyone being able to help them. This makes them truly admit that they are addicted to gambling and need help so that the people around them can help, guide, and support them to recover from gambling addiction. With everything he gets from his family, it can help him overcome his problems so that he will not have a gambling addiction.
The madness of gambling addiction can be very attractive to us but the end might be disaster if we are not too careful on how to go about it. Gambling need a lot of personal discipline to help us make a better decisions because without that we might become a victim of addiction which can be very difficult to handle. Addiction has level and the level we are in a particular addiction will determine whether we are going to be able to come out of it or not. We need to be very alert when trying to leave an addiction so that we can measure our success and what it will take.

Yup, the level of addiction depends on how we engage in this activity. There are many factors in terms of controlling and avoiding to deal with possible addiction.

It's needed a serious control in terms of emotions and all other factors that might affect you when
you are inside and doing your sessions, with a good balance between your bankroll and sets of limitation
with the time and money that you can afford to lose.
72  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Big is the online gambling industry today? on: September 14, 2023, 02:44:25 AM
I think the legalization of gambling websites needs to be considered and implemented under a strict management system. After all, the more banned, the more players there are. Even children can play. By applying it to legal practice, we can manage children. If we cannot control them, children's consciousness cannot know the harmful effects of gambling addiction. I believe this will lead the younger generation to a dead end. Children will become addicted and lose their future. This is alarming when the gambling industry is so developed and legal management is so lax.
Through the history of the world if there was one thing that does not work to stop people from engaging in an activity is to ban it, and if anything this increases the desire people have of it as now it is even more attractive precisely because it is illegal, so if we want to avoid that minors gamble the best way to do so is by the implementation of regulations which legal casinos must follow, this way you get the best of both worlds, you reduce gambling on minors as much as possible, while at the same time you make an industry legal which generates enormous amounts of taxes.

Yeah, that way you help both sides avoid minors to get an early addiction while providing additional income coming from the tax that there
government will implement when a legal casino applies for the permits.

We will continue to see more updates and more developments coming from this industry as more and
more people are already engaged with gambling, legalizing will help in terms of controlling the situations
especially with rules for minors to play.

What we need to understand first, we have to continue to train and build habits.
It is a good thing to do but it is easier said than done especially for those in the poor strata.
When they have a lot of money and get any kind of profit they will try to do it to be hedonistic first. The reason is simple, they have never tried it so when they get a lot of money or their fortune changes for the better they will try to satisfy themselves with what they have never done before.
There are many instances like this where their frenzy just makes it harder for themselves.


Agree to this, instead of thinking ahead where finding how money to work for them, they will surely try things that they never experienced before,

consuming money and not thinking that chances to spend it all and waste it to something that's not important will take place, either they don't have that knowledge or they choose to consume the money in a luxury way that they never have before.

Thinking ahead of time is very crucial in limiting your expenses, making sure to find business or investment or continue
to stay living the way you used to have will prevent you from overspending your money.
74  Economy / Economics / Re: I wonder if food prices in your country have also increased? on: September 13, 2023, 11:39:11 AM
Like in other country price here n the Philippines continuously rises due to the government not supporting too much the agriculture field they keep wasting a lot of money on the confidential funds Sometimes it's also with the government how they manage their community instead of doing an action to the people of the community here in us we are suffering with the poor politics and corrupt people.
Even not pandemic this happen reason why there's no changes here with the management unlike into the other world countries.
I think the agricultural sector is often not a priority in a country. Because there is always a lot of funds for building roads and the like rather than for helping agricultural land such as making modern irrigation and so on. In fact, farmers are rarely helped in obtaining modern tools for farming. Even the price of fertilizer is also getting more expensive. Likewise in animal husbandry. Feed prices are getting more expensive. But we also can't completely complain about this to the government. Because we ourselves are also responsible for ourselves and the sector we enter. But I also hope that the agricultural sector can be given better attention by every government in the world. Because food is the main thing in this world to support life.

I agree with this, although what the government has attempted to do by building infrastructure in the form of upgrading or building new ones such as roads, bridges and so on is also a priority. But, the basics must also be touched upon, of course. Today, many natural phenomena occur and one of them is the devastating floods in Libya with 2% of the Libyan population dead and missing (Condolences for this disaster). So, if we look at what is focused on, the main thing is basic fulfillment, health and then post-incident rehabilitation.

It should be, aside from infrastructures, there should be additional aid that the government should be preparing, like with what happened currently in Libya. it's an un-plan disaster that needs to address or to anticipate.

We can't control everything and same with the government, the inflations affects the prices of the basic needs
additional concern that should also be taking care of the government to help, especially those poor communities
who really need help the most.

You can't exactly ban resting, they will just list those players as injured and since the doctors are the team doctors there isn't really anything you can do about it neither. Yeah yeah I know they will definitely "do something about that too" which they say every year, but first fix the free throws and lack of defense. We complain about all-star games becoming no defense games, people just show their shooting range and all, but regular season games are not getting any better, all those amazing defenders back in the day would foul out in the first minute of the game today. Every year they they will be more careful with the fouls, and every year they give 100 fouls a game. I don't believe a thing NBA says.

You know as they say, the NBA has become too soft nowadays. The highlights of the game are mostly from the three-point area or long-range shooting. No one defends the inside as hard as the 90s, nor is there anyone even brave enough to play like that because of the current rules governing the game. I know that they are actively going against players that are 'flopping,' but I don't think it's enough of a change to bring back at least a semblance of basketball wherein defenders are actually trying to prevent the enemy team to shoot.

And players itself is not the same, they are more on the safe side, more on highlights and forget about the defense. I mean, like what you said with the current rules, best defenders can be fouled out in the early minutes of the game.

More on how the league regulations to adjust and how to bring back the interest of those fans who already
left as they no longer see the entertainment due to the softness or whatever reason behind.

Better it would be pushed through and your right that the hype is already on the roof on which i do really have questions in mind on why those promoters or boxing organization wont really be considering out this fight
to happen? Of course it would really be that understandable that they should really be on the same division but totally checking then they are really just that the same.
I did see something interesting here:  https://box.live/fights/inoue-vs-casimero/ . Is this something that shows about those probabilities to be pushed on?

Here are the notable differences in between two.
The stats suggest Inoue would have a large advantage in power over Casimero, boosting at 88% knock out percentage over Casimero's 67%.

Naoya Inoue is the younger man by 3 years, at 30 years old.
Inoue has a height advantage of 1 inch over Casimero.
Both Naoya Inoue & John Riel Casimero fight out of an orthodox stance.

Source

So with these info along then you could really tell on who does have the advantage.

I truly think that because Inoue has the advantage in this fight against Casimero, it is going to be a bigger fight for Casimero, and if he can actually give his opponent a close competition, which is going to be appreciated by a lot of people. And in the movies we see a line being thrown around, "he did not win the fight, but he did win the hearts of people". Probably something like that is going to happen if Casimero can take this close. But with the knockout power that Inoue has, it is not going to be surprising to see Casimero get knocked out. But that fight has to get arranged in the first place. I think this is the right time when the fight should be arranged. If they are late, they might kill the hype.

The possibility for the fight to happen depends on how fans will try to bring the hype to the promoters. They both need to win with their respective upcoming fight, then start to talk about the possibility.

I think all that opinion and speculation can only be concluded once they are already inside the ring
fighting each other, for now, we can just bring our opinion and favor who we think that have the
advantage according to their past fights and stats.

Hello Kawhi Leonard.
Sources: NBA likely to pass tougher rules on resting stars
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/38380166/sources-nba-likely-pass-tougher-rules-resting-stars
Quote
The NBA is expected to pass more stringent rules and punishments to limit the resting of star players for nationally televised and in-season tournament games and instances of multiple All-Stars sitting out individual regular-season games, sources told ESPN on Monday.

The NBA's competition committee recommended a plan that the league's board of governors is expected to approve Wednesday. It would ultimately give the league office authority for greater oversight over discipline for missed games and an ability to fine teams over $1 million for each instance of violating resting rules, sources said.
If ever this is approved, no more load management. He must find a good reason if ever he wants to take a rest. The same with Kyrie Irving who shouted about the back-to-back games that he doesn't want to play.
Looks like the NBA is wearing its fangs to this type of behavior. The chances of the team management as the culprit for resting there are high and I'd agree that they should be the ones who should be fined if their players are behaving unnaturally even though they are able to play. It's given that they want to protect their assets but what about the fans who are expecting to see their stars on the day they are able to watch and yet they cannot be seen anywhere?
It's bad for business, NBA business. Cheesy

This is some rule I'm finding it very hard to come to terms with, what's the issue with a team resting their stars ?, probably for tougher for fixtures ahead or the so called work load management, you have some guys playing back to back, about 4 games in a week on the road sometimes, how do you expect these players to keep up for an entire season without fatigue setting in or becoming more prone to injury, I understand that this could be a move towards cubbing match fixing and making every penny some fans pay to come watch some big teams only for them to find out that it's their rotation team that's gracing the court. Despite the amount of rest these supposed stars get, you see how many games they miss being out injured, and playing the post season through one discomfort or the order, NBA might need to work on a more flexible schedule for this teams before prioritizing some supposedly resting rules for humans, not robot, nor aliens.

Yes, and we really don't know how started it, maybe it has been done way before Kawhi. It's just Doc Rivers was the first one to speak about it and that's why it highlighted Kawhi with it. But I do agree that did shouldn't be done in the first place by any coach or team. I mean there are fans who paid expensive tickets and it's a disappointing that when they come to see and watch the games, the superstars are nowhere to be found? Haven't they seen Kobe, in which he broke his fingers and trainer Gary Vitti pops it back in in live TV? Damn (RIP Mamba), where are those kind of players now? All of them with huge contracts are being pampered.

I just can't stop myself commenting on it, stars nowadays are more concern with the money and so with the managements, they value their investment and forget about those fans who bring them the money.

Though I don't know what might be the impact and how things will be done in this upcoming season but
if executed it the right way, it will give fans much better watching live experienced knowing that the value

What's really the hold up in the price rising because earlier this year some see the price to be above the current price even up to $40-$45k and up till now is like there's something holding it and who's holding at the moment has given up.
What's the best advise to be given to investors who thinks the next bull isn't coming anytime soon but from next year?
To me I still have faith on this whole weak market price with the way it seems Bitcoin price can start rising starting from this week, not a prophecy or something is just keeping the hope up high.

If you have that trust better to buy and hold while the price is still cheap, if your analysis is right, then expect to earn decently once the market begins to pump back and rally high.

All depends on how you trust and understand the market and how willing you are in case that another
dump takes place, how you will survive and how decide your investment.

It's not really a shame because Donaire has proved enough in the industry of what he can do, he achieved enough that Manny Pacquiao himself trusted and passed the torch to him to make the Filipinos proud, and as a Filipino, I'm proud of what he has become but when it comes to reality, it's hard to argue that Donaire is already in the sunset of his career while Inoue is still at his sunrise.

We can say that age might not be a factor but that is not really the case because let's not forget that Donaire is already at his 40s and it's hard to say really that he still have the power and speed to keep up with the guys who are still on the height of their prime like Naoya Inoue.

Good point and it's valid, if they met during Donaire's prime I can also agree that it might be a different outcome, just look what happened from the first met Donaire coming from a long vacation and almost beat that prime Inoue.

The rematch might seem to be dominated by Inoue, as expected, since he already knew what Donaire can do
and he's well prepared for what Donaire can bring, and just easily counter him and bring him down.
