61  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: May 29, 2018, 04:14:07 PM
I never won up to $ 200, but after that I even addicted to gambling, and finally I get a double defeat of my previous capital.

How unlucky you are mate, same here, I never won that big in gambling, that is why I've decided not to continue playing it before it get worse. I open my eyes and accepted the truth that gambling is not for me. There is a lot of doors out there or opportunity to grab other than gambling. We have to embrace the fact that gambling is not just a game where we could easily earn money in no time, most of the time it is the opposite of that.
62  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: May 29, 2018, 03:51:10 PM
I think the only positive effect of gambling is that you can earn money very easily. Gambling is more of a negative thing according to your information. The good effects you mentioned are irrelevant as nobody gambles solely for the purpose of making friends, getting pleasure( I don’t see any pleasure involved), nor does it increase our assets directly. So the only good point is that you can earn money without doing any work but that is also not guaranteed.
That is one reason, you can earn money very easily but that too is not a totally positive effect because there is a negative side in it. Because gambling is the way you can earn money very easily, gamblers are tend to become greedy when they see that they are winning already. They feel that luck is on their side so they will gamble all of their money until no money  is left with them.

There is no pleasure in gambling, maybe entertainment is a better word for gambling Cheesy. For me, I don't see any positive effects on gambling aside from entertainment ONLY.
It's not only entertainment, gambling can also  be a source of income by chance. If you are lucky enough you can make it as a source of money. Possible you gain big profit.Yes you are definitely entertain if you win. It can be a stress reliever for those who are upset at work.

If you are continually making money through gambling it is completely based on your luck but most of the cases we might loose through gambling. Yes, I can agree mostly people will feel entertained by playing gambling.

Being entertain in gambling and losing your money at the same time is just natural, but the reactions that we are having every time we experience that is different, some of us gets angry, some of us got disappointed, and some of us feels happy about it since they had some fun. The effects of gambling will depends on a person emotion.

1 – Aversion to Loss

2. False Expert Belief

3. What Goes Up Must Come Down

4. Raising Stakes

5. Bandwagon Effect


https://degenbet.com/5-mental-responses-will-make-lose-money/

That is only some of the many responses that will make you suffer in playing gambling. There is no good thing about gambling, that is why I'm wondering how other people are having a hard time leaving gambling, yes we could be addicted but if we are mature enough to accept our lose, then quitting is no big deal, our mindset should be "I lost, that is fine, gambling is not the only way to earn money" something like that for us to avoid losing too much.
64  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: May 29, 2018, 03:14:00 PM
I never thought to quiting after getting defeat. I have to play again and get a victory to cover yesterday's defeat. when it's epic comeback, I can think to stop.
But I am damn sure you would have never got back your loss. This never happens and in gambling, it is near to impossible. I know now here comes some legends who say yes we have got back our losses so soon but brothers that is just for few people. Everyone is not here to make money from gambling. People are so stupid to get into gambling for earning money.
You are doing wrong because it is the worst thing in gambling to try win back your lost money, you will lose more and more and finally you will have nothing and then debts starts. Have you ever seen a happy gambler? I have never seen such a man because gambling is bad and it is natural that the result will also be bad. You should think about quitting gambling before losing money.

That is the natural response that we could have after losing our money to gambling, the only mistake that we are doing is that we are getting too attached on that mindset, which could be a dangerous thing in the long run. Sometimes we must think first clearly on what we are going to do in order to win back our money, because most of the time, continuing will not be the way on how you could get back all the money that you have lost, it is sometimes when you quit gambling, that is when you could get it all back(in a different way though).
65  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: May 29, 2018, 08:06:45 AM
You don't get to be specifics here dude. All gamblers really know the consequences of being addicted to gambling. But why they are still getting into it despite the negative effects of it? Simply because they want to enjoy and earn lots of money in the quickest time possible. And no amount of explanation will swayed their mentality.
These "ENJOY" and "EARN LOTS OF MONEY" makes them addicted into gambling. Yes they know the consequences but they don't think it deeper. It will be hard for them also to quit in gambling because its part of their life already. Maybe they will stop only if they don't have money or they can't borrow money to their relatives anymore.

I hope that word "enjoys" and "earns a lot" happened to me way back when I'm still playing gambling, it is very rare to happen to a certain individual, all I've experienced was to lose against the house, and if I'm remembering it, all that cause to me is pain. I still wanted to win back the loses that I've had in gambling but I know what is going to happen, so I stopped dreaming about that. I divert my attention on something I know that is safer than gambling, and that is bounty hunting.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: May 29, 2018, 07:41:58 AM
I think yes. Being positive gives us more space to think and we can come up with a new idea, new strategy and we can also control our mind and body. If we can not control our body, we can become too greedy and then, in the result, we will lose our money in gambling
You don't have to be greedy to lose money. Gambling is game created for you to lose money, no matter greedy, not greedy and no matter how positive or negative you are.
I don't see how controlling your body can help you in gambling. Do you?

I don't see how controlling your body will affect the outcome either , nor what strong feelings you get whenever placing a bet will does .
It's all about luck and the outcome can infinitely random no matter what conditions your metabolism is ..
You should rather control your gambling practices and know where did you screw up and where were you good whenever following some strategy , and on top of all you must control your spending since frustration can make you spend even more in hopeless attempts to get your money back ..
Positive thinking will certainly not affect the game circumstances , house's edge or what could happen at any given time during the whole process .. so this being positive thing won't make you any money , being smart will tho and that's my advice for any gambler : whether you are willing to take risks or not , whether you are greedy or not , the more you play it smart the more benefit you'll get Wink .
If you are confident on a gambling table your opponent will think that you are an experienced and old gambler and will lose his temperament while gambling with you. Your positive attitude will affect the game and will help you win the game. But for winning only positive thinking is not enough, many other factors also involved in good gambling.
I never want to discuss these stupidities that whether you are good in gambling or not, rather we have to think why we are discussing something that is totally detrimental for us. Why we are not seeing ourselves drowning in this game and then losing every single penny? This will cost us the separation of our relationships and parents and siblings and everyone. Get yourself a break and think.

That is so true, this people are so obsessed in playing gambling, they find it entertaining while they are losing their money, how weird is that. They must have gone insane because of their addiction in gambling, it is more like they don't care anymore on whatever might happen to them as long as they are playing gambling but it is not simple like that. Time will come when they will come to their limit or to their end.
67  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Investing to Bitcoin is not that easy on: April 24, 2018, 04:35:37 PM
right because if you do not know how to invest in bitcoin you will lose all your money and be happy with your hard work because it's not easy to invest in bitcoin

Enter in the world of investing is full of risk if you don't know how to invest it will lose all your money. Investing in bitcoin is not easy it is full of risk if you have lack of knowledge about it, you need to workhard lots of research and patient.

But investing in bitcoin doesn't have any risk unless you are going to panic every time the price of it is going down, panic selling is the only risk you need to worry about, because you could lose your profit in the long run. Hold your bitcoin if it is needed, only sell some if you really need it like for an emergency or if you needed the fiat to buy your everyday needs, something like that.
68  Economy / Speculation / Re: Does war affect the price of bitcoin? on: April 24, 2018, 04:09:04 PM
For me the war in other country is not affecting the value of bitcoin, the really affecting the price is the FUD and fake news, together with the banning of bitcoin is some country in asia.

Well if there is going to be a war on a certain country or even a world war of course bitcoin would be annihilated to, I mean, if the people who are responsible on making bitcoin moves in the market dies, then the supply will become zero in no time and sadly it could die like what might happen to us if there is going to be a war, and no one will think about bitcoin during that, that is insane.
69  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin still exist in your country? on: April 24, 2018, 03:51:23 PM
currently in my country bitcoin still exist, although in my country transactions using bitcoin banned by the government, because bitcoin in my country still not legal, so bitcoin can only be used for investment and shopping in online

Same here in our country, but the media have a negative feedback about it because of the people scamming other people by using bitcoin's name. However, in spite all of that, there are still positive feedback about it, there are cases where the legit company says that bitcoin could be earn through mining and other stuffs but never on ponzi schemes, I don't see that bitcoin would be ban here in our country so far.
70  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 24, 2018, 03:34:02 PM
If you don't gamble because you are shy then you probably have some psychological problems in your life that are not necessarily related to gambling.
Most of the casinos giving you the feeling that you are at home, everybody accepts you and care about you, which in fact all they care about is take your money.
if Shyness blocks you from gambling then go ahead, whatever blocks you from gambling is acceptable.


It is not a psychological problem, being shy on playing gambling is just because we don't wanted to make a bad image on our friends or even to our love ones, and also add that we just don't want to disappoint ourselves on whatever the result is. And don't you think that it is a advantage for a certain individual if he is shy on playing gambling, that way, he could prevent himself to lose his money on betting.
71  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourselfn this on: April 24, 2018, 03:08:27 PM
Gamble for free? How are you going to gamble for free ?
Haha gambling for free, this is only applicable if you'll gamble with casino's play money.

Gambling is risking your own money and if you are referring gamble for free as in faucet money thats not even a gamble. If you are not risking anything, thats bullshit for me. You only have very small chance to win but that is enough I think because it is gambling afterall isnt it
Faucet is one of it and this is what I've done before but giving this idea to the gamblers that wants to give up gambling, you'll encourage them instead of quitting.  Grin

Nothing is free in this world as rightly being said. Even if you think you are getting it free their would be some condition apply scenario and thus you will fall in a trap and that free money will become the debt as you will play more to get more money and may end up in a losses .


It is indeed free, but it does have an interval after you claimed once,, and using free satoshi in a certain gambling site is good if you are just playing gambling just for time, though it will not last that long because that is only a small amount of money, and making profits out of it is so hard since the house always win. Using that is a safe way on how you are going to explore the game you wanted to play in gambling before you use your money on betting.
72  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: April 24, 2018, 02:54:03 PM
I think gamblers have very weird mindset, they always think they are making the right decision, they are losing a lot of money and they are going for more, always thinking they can win, if they win, again they think they can win more, and they end up losing everything .

Of course you have to be motivate yourself when you are playing gambling so that you will not attract negative things while you are playing gambling, the only wrong with their mindsets is that they are still encouraging themselves to gamble for more even though they are losing because they believe that they are going to win in the next round, but the thing that they are missing out is that gambling is not easy as they thought.
73  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling: Culture on: April 24, 2018, 02:43:11 PM
The gambling and culture I think it is related, because the gambling had such a culture in the people who are already in considers as part of their lives, in all the country in a variety of the of rich until the poor surely they are gambled than gambled small to gambled millions of

Gambling has been around even before society learned to be civilized. A lot of culture have their own forms of gambling probably same as having their own beliefs and religion. So yeah with the evolution of civilization, gambling has always been a part of it

Gambling is not a culture I guess, because the culture is something that we could be proud of, and gambling is not included because of its bad reputation. Maybe it is just a habit that we inherited to our ancestors from a very long time but it will never be a part of our culture, and in the near future, gambling will continue to evolve as the technology grows.
74  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: April 24, 2018, 02:17:06 PM
Gambling is like other addiction, you have to stop it for a while, make yourself busy and no freetime to think about it then slowly you will forget it. Never try it again even a super small bet, it will make your addiction back.

You should say that in the easiest way but trying to get out of the real thing is hard. Someone's struggling to get out of gambling for good and it's totally a pain that he can't even help himself because his fighting against his own will. He wants to gamble and his mind keeps on telling him to gamble since he used to do it repetitively and that's a hard battle for everyone, I've been there and it's not easy, we can easy say it to stop for a while or do something that you can enjoy.

If you want to come out from a bad habit then people need to take some tough decision otherwise they will never come out of these addictions. As OP mention you have to stop gambling first keep yourself busy with other activities either with non-gambling friends or family members. If you can do that then slowly you will forget and after that, you need to learn skills not to go back to gambling again. Even though it is difficult to implement but for a good reason, we have to try and stop it.

Tough decisions aren't enough without proper application and implementation. Keeping yourself busy is a good way to stop and quit gambling for good and this way you have to get some help with those people that are near you. What is the thing that's happening in the wrong way as most gamblers that wants to quit for good thinks that it will be an easy thing and quick to just quit but they don't know the slowly but surely thing.
 

Of course the decision to quit should come with some stipulated steps on the table and the roadmap leading to achieving each step of the rehabilitation should also be spelled out clearly so that  you know where you are at any moment in time with your progress.
Yes, You need proper planning and support to get out of the spell of the evil game. Once you get addicted to this game, it is really not easy to stop gambling for you.

I have seen many people who had come on road from big houses just because of this game. You need proper professional help and family support for coming out of the desire for gambling all the time and making a lot of money.

We all know that it is not really easy to be addicted on something and much more on things that may eventually loses all of our properties and hard earned money. If at all a gambler just play for fun and entertainment, I don't think there is really much of a problem at all.

The term 'Gambler' doesn't befit someone who is looking for fun and entertainment but for the profit seeking ones. I wouldn't waste my money for entertainment and fun and still call myself a gambler because im not by that standard.

Gambling is not for entertainment of fun only, gambling is about taking it seriously since you wanted to earn some money by risking your money on it by betting. If you are not going to be serious about it, I'm sure that you will not make any profits from it. Considering all of the facts about gambling will help you to quit it slowly, knowing its risk in the long run and how it will affect you could do the trick, it might be hard to resist the urge to gamble while we are forgetting about it but if we completely quit gambling, then we are free from losing our money.
75  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing money on bitcoin..! on: April 20, 2018, 03:29:42 PM
Because investing in bitcoin is much better. Where bitcoin also has a liquidity that isn't less than gold, and level demand for understanding of financial technology the better. Thus, bitcoin deserves to be an option in investing.

Indeed, investing on bitcoin is profitable in the long run, rather than investing in fiat, I'd rather choose investing in bitcoin. Not only investing is a good way for you to earn good money with bitcoin, if you are going to do Trading and joining signature campaign, I assure you that you will be more satisfied on the money you are making.

If i were the one gambling and come to an end like this for me i will surely stop for the reason that if you would continue gambling ypu will not be sure if you win or lose. To be safe just stop anf and go home.'

It is all about making the right decision, but how you are going to know if the decision you are going to make is right? you could know it when you close your eyes and think of yourself continuing playing gambling, after you lose think of what might come to you if you are still not going to quit gambling, a wise person will quit gambling is in instant after he lost in gambling, he will not force himself in the world of gambling because there is a lot of opportunities out there.
78  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: March 10, 2018, 02:37:58 PM
I am grateful to myself, because I do not like to gamble. I do not think the gamble has any positive effect on me. Only a moment's pleasure is what they feel, they do not think about the enormous negative effects. I think the thing I need to do if I am a gambler is I will leave the gambling as soon as possible and start doing positive activities that will make myself more advanced.
Maybe you're right, but there can be the nicest part, when gambling only gives you a negative effect, it's a challenge for us to find fun. The risk is enormous, if we can not control ourselves, we will end up with negative effects of gambling. Only people who dare to take risks can get pleasure from gambling.



Not all of the people who are risking in gambling are getting what they want from it, which is winning. Many of us wanted to win in gambling but we are always disappointed because we always lose againts the house, the numbers of people who are winning and lucky in gambling is only few, yet still many people are risking their money to test their luck, some of them quit trying, and some of them got addicted to it.
79  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the government ban bitcoin? on: March 10, 2018, 11:45:45 AM
most likely yes, but it will happen if criminals are already using Bitcoin as their crime

It's possible to be happen to use bitcoin in their crime,  I heard there some people use bitcoin to their bad doing. And there's possibility to government will ban bitcoin.

Some of the countries already banned bitcoin for this kind of reason which doesn't make sense, I mean all of the currency that we have in this world are being use on different things including criminality, buying illegal drugs, buying illegal firearms and so on but why they are not banning our real currency to stop those kind of illegal activities right? don't you think the real reason behind of banning bitcoin is that they can't touch it and they can't steal it from people, well that is only opinion about it.
80  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hold or Sell on: March 10, 2018, 11:24:25 AM
HOLD until I will reach my goal price and then I will sell some of my holdings but of course I will still hold 70% of my coins. I am positive with crypto and I am long term with it.

Same here, I guess all of the Traders here are holding their tokens even though the market is tempting us to sell because we might lose even more profits if we are going to hold for a little bit longer, but yeah, for me holding will do since it is just a part of cryptocurrencies, to fluctuate from time to time because of different issue in the market. I'm hoping that it will rise up soon so I could buy my own car.
