Prediction can not be someone's only guess. An expert predicts something based on facts and events that are happening right now and that are upcoming in the future. Most of the time it becomes true that everyone was expecting Blackrocks ETF approval to have a heavy impact on the market and the market can rally based on that. But any unexpected change of events can prove your prediction totally wrong.

If we always use past events to say something is going to happen and we conclude that is going to come to pass in the nearest future and it doesn't, don't you think that is just a mistake to always rely on historical events?
Is suppose to be said that it might happen, that's to let those who are reading it to know is not 100% certain. But some of these guys dropping predictions will make it look like is not going to fail, and some traders do fall for these predictions, it also make them lose more money then they can imagine, because of false predictions.
We can really be able to draw up those speculations basing up on the past events or simply with the history and even if we do say that there's no assurance that things would happen the same in the future which it cant really be avoided that people would really be always loving on to peek back on what actually happens on which patterns could really be that drawn and this is something that we do really tend to look upon or making it as a reference and will really be applied into our current analysis and understanding towards the market.

Relying on prediction? Even if we do say that its not something should be done but there would really be people who would really be loving on following someone when it comes into their investment or trading decisions.
Its not really something new. This market is unpredictable and totally random on which there's no way that we could really be able to determine on where it would really be going but due to those
past events and happenings or simply with those stats then we could really make out some assumption out there. It might not be precise but it is really just that much better
comparing making out some positions without having any basis or just simply that totally basing with some intuition on which its not really that recommended.

I've been hearing a lot of debates about this recently, both online and in my local area, and it got me thinking. When it comes to sports betting, do you prefer the thrill of live sports events or the calculated nature of virtual games?

Personally, I've realized that I have a higher success rate with virtual games, but live sports events offer that adrenaline rush that's hard to beat. It's a common dilemma for many bettors. I usually love betting on virtual games giving me this sure vibe that my odds might play out. Live sports can be unpredictable, and if you don't place the right bets, you might go home empty-handed.

So, I'm throwing the question out to all of you. Which type of sports betting gets your heart racing and your wallets fattening up? Do you have a preference, and if so, why?


When it comes to thrill then hands down to live sports betting specially if you do really make out some bets to support your favorite team on which it would really be giving out that kind of feeling which it isnt something that you could really be able to feel when you do go virtual.Just like been said with other posters or members above then the results are already determined,whereas if we do speak about those live then it would really be that totally random on which considering that there would really be  factors that could really affect out overall outcome of a certain game on which it is really that making too unpredictable since in the first place.

Dont know if there would really be some recognizable numbers who do love on betting on virtual on which as far as i do understand and in comparison then it would
be understandable that there would be lots who would be preferring on betting on live on which results or outcomes would really be totally random and cant be known.
Also its always been entertaining to watch it live rather than into those predetermined kind of bets.

You are entirely correct. The true wealth is good health. It's what I've always said. Is there any point if you're not healthy? If you're bedridden, money cannot purchase happiness for you. Wealthy people have enough of money, but it's not everything. And in terms of transferring it? What a great idea! However, and this is crucially important, it goes beyond the numbers. It all comes down to the drive, work ethic, and ideals.

Splitting it equally amongst your kids? Excellent! It's the most equitable approach to maintain peace and steer clear of any needless drama, if you will. Depending on how you use it, money may either be a blessing or a punishment. Thus, it is vital to handle! The key is making wise choices, regardless of whether you're sitting on a gold mine or barely getting by. Invest, diversify, and maintain a broad perspective at all times. Remember constantly that your health comes first, money comes second. That's the recipe for success!

Health is divided into two that is your mental health and your physical health, both of which are very important to support good productivity. If you fail to take care of one of them, then all the wealth you have will be useless. Currently there are many ways on Google that you can learn to maintain your health well, maintain your sleep patterns and eating patterns too, don't be because you are too busy with work or the business you are running, you forget all that, when you fall sick, you Just spend a lot of money that you have accumulated so far, don't take your health lightly.
Indeed, both mental and physical health is important in our life, it’s important to remember that the distinction between the two is less important than we may assume. Our thoughts, moods, and mental state may feel abstract or separate from the physical, but they are all happening as part of our brain activity. It’s well evidenced that poor mental well-being can affect a person’s productivity or cause long-term stress. In addition, If you' are working with a physical ailment such as sickness and vomiting, it ca cause the illness to spread across a work space. Both issues, if not contained, can lead to unproductive days and Unstable state of mind.
Totally connected to each other and if there's something wrong with one of those areas then pretty sure it would really be creating that kind of domino effect on which it would really be definitely be affecting overall efficiency on whatever you are really that indeed doing. This is why you shouldn't really be just focused into one point and it would really be that turning out that if you do focused that much then it would really be having that cons or significant effect on other things too on which it would really be causing having no balance or compromising other things on which it would really be greatly affecting you.

When it comes about making money then we could really be able to read up tons of ideas and tutorial on how or what are the things that needs to be done. Yes,it is really that an easy thing to read up and understand
but on the  time that you would really gonna tend to do it, then it would really be an another story. There's no such thing on making  yourself that successful no matter what industry or place you are really  that
getting involved into. The thing here is that you would really be needing to take risks for you to be able to get the money or earning that you are really aiming into.
Mindset will vary into each individual since we know that each one of us does have that different goals and plans that needs to be done.
644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Just like visiting a cinema on: October 25, 2023, 09:33:53 PM
That's how I like to treat gambling.

I've always felt like it's healthy to think that you pay for the experience. When you send money to a casino you pay them for the chance to use the service and the money is lost. If you get lucky and get something back to end the experience with profit that's great but don't think it's going to happen every time.

I know it's just a way of explaining a loss to myself but it helps me cope with it and I've never had any problems with depression.
You wont really be finding yourself to get depressed if you have already anticipated on the thing that would definitely happen into you which is "losing money".Whenever you are really that getting involved with gambling then its always been that wise that you should already anticipate on what would gonna happen so that on the time that you would be facing up losses then you wont really be finding yourself ending up like a mad man.
Gambling is really just that for fun and dont expect something like an assured winning into it because if you do then it would really be just making you desperate and this is something not really that recommended at all.

When you do gamble then it would really be just that wise that you should really be treating it up just like your past time and it would be always better that you do have that kind of treatment so that
you wont really be finding yourself to be that impulsive when it comes to things. Visiting like a cinema or whatever activity that you are really that into.

You would really be just needing to set your mind on what it is and on how to deal with it.You wont really be finding yourself on having that gambling problem
if you do really just make yourself that responsible and this is something that must thing to be done.
645  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Know When to Stop. Lesson for Everyone, Particularly Investors on: October 25, 2023, 08:15:43 PM
Knowing when to stop is also like knowing yourself more. Greedy people often do not achieve success but failure and that is a lesson learned that we must know how to deal with our emotions and much more about controlling our greed. Well, for newbies it seems not easy to know about it but for experienced traders or investors, we probably know when to stop.

 - stop if we already exceed our limits
 - stop if we feel uncomfortable and out of the plan
 - stop if we never understand that market situation
Just learn to stop when everything that is happening is not on your side. Even professional traders sometimes experience this kind of feeling, so they just take a pause and eventually come back in trading when they're not exhausted anymore. But no matter how often you take your breaks but still the same result is observed, I guess you need to change your strategies in trading. Develop a new one and then work on it. And if it's still not working, assess yourself if you can still bear your future losses because if not, change your plan and change your career. Sometimes we need to separate our habit and interest to our own career, if it's the only way that we can stop ourselves from experiencing the same failures and losses that already happen repetitively.

Indeed, you should stop or pause for a while if you already seeing that there's nothing positive that happens with your current strategy, maybe you need to re-assess and try to change the patterns that you are using, it's not just because you are out of luck but maybe the guide or factors that you are following is no longer affecting the market that much, or maybe you should try twisting your strategy or also a possible that you need to have that break.

Finding some extra space inside your mind and allow learning to flow inside you to re-analyze the situation may help in order to take another step and see if how it will go to work.

You would really be needing to do such thing or else you would really be completely busting up your entire capital or your trading fund without even putting some good fight or making some good  trades just because you had made yourself that being that lose in control. It is really that true that there are really moments in trading on which you are really that been experiencing those consecutive losses because we know that there's no one on this market could really be having that perfect strategy on which means that on the time that you are that in verge of such situation then it would be wise on having some break.

You would really be able to see its relevance and importance once you do be able to get that kind of experience and awareness in the market. Knowing on when to stop and would be finding the timing on when to get
in where everything is really that calm and could really be something that could be handled.There are really that moments in the market on which prices are really that too unpredictable on which it is really that
moving into a certain extent that even trading technicals had been messed up or simply there are moments which it is really hard to read it up.
No matter on what are the things you are applying whether TA+FA but it doesnt really give out assurance about its effectiveness. So it would always boils down
into your own taking in making those decisions on point.
646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Educate yourself to be a frugal gambler on: October 25, 2023, 07:19:32 PM
Even though a topic like this has been discussed quite a lot, I still give my view on this matter. It is true that gambling is only for entertainment, it is not made as an investment or as a job for someone. If someone makes gambling their job or investment, it is the same as committing suicide, because what they will get is nothing and they might be trapped in an endless gambling cycle. That's why before gambling, a person must first understand how to manage their finances, because gambling activities are usually directly related to a person's financial condition, and mismanaging this can have bad consequences.

that is true, first and foremost, the person who would want himself to get involved with gambling activities should know possible repercussions in terms of his financials, mental health and other aspects of his life that will have direct impact because of this activity.
because if you will just follow your own desires, definitely, you can easily go to the brink of addiction.
while it is still early, much better manage your priorities in life and be firm about it. so you won't regret later on about your choices in life.

most important thing is that before starting gambling activities, it better to understand how gambling works and this can be understood by novice gamblers to try to understand how gambling actually works and how to continue gambling safely.

if someone who wants to start gambling has a more mature understanding of gambling they will definitely have a broad mindset or usually referred to as a healthy mindset to bet using money they can afford to lose and still bet responsibly without having to chase losses or losses because of this its all just about luck based games and instilling the mind that the casino always wins which will indoctrinate our minds to be afraid of putting large amount of money into the casino.
Doesnt really need for you to have that criticial thinking or whatever things that you do need to do on which you would really be just simply needing up that common sense and self awareness on the thing that you've been dealing with then you would really be that just able to assess on what are the things that you must do on the time that you would really be that having that kind of engagement specially on gambling.It doesnt really need up with some serious approach if you are really just that treating it as a past time or something that really talks about being entertainment which it is really just that the function of it in the first place.It did really just that turn out that things turns out to be messy just because of peoples mindset and hopes do really changed up.

Each person is really that different when it comes to things on which on the time that they would really be that having those kind of intents specially on making money then of course it would really be changing up their
perceptions towards things. We know that gambling could really give out that kind of experience and possibilities on making money on instant way on which they would really be that be thinking
that getting rich with gambling would really be that easy without even trying to look back on how risky it would be on having those kind of assumptions and this what
makes this industry becomes so profitable due into that kind of common behavior.
647  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin $5k rise within an hour plus. on: October 25, 2023, 10:33:23 AM
The rise in Bitcoin in a short time yesterday clearly brought us joy. Investors may have sold some of their Bitcoins to take advantage. However, many investors are still holding Bitcoin and not selling it at yesterday's high price.

But it is still far from the previous ATH where Bitcoin is currently still struggling to reach the previous ATH. And now, the price correction has come. This correction makes me curious because with the $34k level reached, where will the price of Bitcoin fall? Can Bitcoin price remain above $30k during the current correction or will Bitcoin price return to below $30k?

It remains a mystery to us. And people who bought Bitcoin at $33k or $34k yesterday could be worried because they bought Bitcoin at high prices. But if they don't panic about the decline in Bitcoin and can hold their Bitcoin tightly, they will see that they will make a profit in the future.
I don't think there has been a price correction right now from the significant increase that occurred in the last few days, currently the price is still in the $34k-$35k price range which means it is still quite high and we are still waiting to see whether the increase will continue or vice versa.

We don't deserve to talk about ATH right now, currently a significant increase has just occurred and we are entering a halving time which allows us to return to seeing the things we want.
There is no need to panic, Bitcoin's movement tends to be more in a positive direction this year, and that indicates it will continue until the end of the year, and I am quite optimistic about that.
Just wait for it, we arent still on bull market yet and just like been said or mentioned above by some posters. We are really just that still far away on bull run or year and half basing up on the history
on which there's really that still chance for you to wait up for some extreme dips or corrections on which it could really happen on this year into the next.This is why it would really be just that fine that you should really be taking up some assumption that there would really be some further dumps that could happen along the way. If you are really that just new into this market then these things would really be surely be experience
about that roller coaster ride on which it is really just that something that very normal into this market.

Now tend to look around on the news and sentiments that floating on which it seems that we would really be having some nasty corrections around the corner. This is why you should really be that
careful on what are the things that you would really be gonna do specially on deciding whether on buying or selling because in any actions be made then there would really be a
corresponding effects next to it. This is why you should really be wise on taking up decisions or else it would really be costing you.
648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Nigeria socialite went all in on this sport bet on: October 24, 2023, 09:28:18 PM
Early hours of today,  one of the Nigeria billionaire business man E money shared his bet slip online for fans to see how much he splashed on the game between Chelsea vs Asernal which already on and Cheslea leading with 1:0, this brought me to the point of asking what your opinion on celebrities staking higher amount and still be ok to publicly show it and do not feel any thing even if the ticket cut just like what happened to Drake last few weeks back.


What is you view and analysis on this bet,  although I see that he be confident in his selections to have staked such an amount,  but since football is a game of unpredictability,  what then ks your views on this game even though the match is currently live.
We all have different opinions on games and he have clearly showed us his own view of the game but what I don’t understand is why he would take such risk and stake on Arsenal to win despite watching how terrible Arsenal was in the first half, their entire midfield bullied and overshadowed by South American combo Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo who also got help from Conor Gallagher. Chelsea’s midfield was rock solid throughout the game which was why it was difficult for Arsenal to penetrate them and their most creative midfielder Odegaard was lost throughout the game. Merely seeing Arsenal’s performance in the first should have made him know he was making a wrong decision and winning Chelsea at stamford bridge will be a difficult task.

In my opinion Arsenal was even lucky to have draw the game and had it been Chelsea converted their chances it would’ve been a different story.
That's betting for him, he had his own choice to make so I don't see anything wrong here. Talking about the betting, only Chelsea fan will bet the winning for Chelsea. Trust me despite the oppression and everything Arsenal still came out strong and best with a draw, so I think Chelsea are the lucky ones here because Arsenal didn't bring out there best. I see Chelsea fan talking dirty about this match and I will laugh, bro a draw at home very bad, I expected more better from them. from my observation Arsenal would have score another goal but due to the time duration that's why they could not score
Talking about draw result and talking about having other team didnt take them seriously? I dont buy that or believe on what you are saying.There's nothing being best to be the winner on which if they could beat up
the enemy team easily then they should have  done that as much as they could and dont letting them score. It is really just that a shit kind of comment on telling about on not on being serious on which it is really just that a normal word if you are really justthat a solid fan with Arsenal.  Grin

Speaking for someone who do make out bets, doesnt matter if you are a billionaire or average joe who do make out such bet then results would really be just the same. I do agree in some points that
if someone choses a particular team then just let them be on which its their money that been used up not yours. Speaking about on how much bet they do put up then its entirely depending on you.
Financial status couldnt really be seen or predicted with just the amounts that had been gambled. We've seen here that put up some million of Naira which it isnt something
expected for a billionaire but well its their decisions to make not ours.
649  Economy / Economics / Re: Women are more economical than men. on: October 24, 2023, 07:18:57 PM
It all depends on the situation and conditions. Indeed, in this case there are advantages for each individual and it is very clear when seen from their main duties, especially if you are married. The husband's job is to earn a living for his wife and children and the wife's job is to be responsible for managing household finances because she is considered capable of navigating expenses and is wise in compartmentalizing which expenses are important and urgent (conservative). But, the head of the family remains male if in the process there is inequality in terms of management and the mandate can be withdrawn at any time.
But in today's period, women have got also lots of opportunities especially in areas where the businesses are found.
There are some cases that it is the woman that earns a living while the husband becomes the houseband. On a practicality setting, it's always the talks and agreement of the couple on what's going to work best for them.

Yes, that's right, I myself am even at first glance often confused because of this reversal, many companies are opening up jobs for women why is it like this, but what I see today is that more companies need women to join the existing jobs. I don't know clearly why more women are needed even though basically women are tasked as housewives, not required to work. I see now that usually most of the men find it difficult to get jobs, even though they have struggled here and there looking for work but with the final results that are always not in line with expectations. As we know, it is men who have full responsibility because they will be the head of the family later. Most of them are like this because of their limited economy, so they are forced to have women work and men work at home. So sometimes I like to see this matter become an argument in the family because of the reversal of circumstances. Either way, I'm still confused about this myself.
There can be some psychological reasons why companies do hire more women in every sector that they're needed.
It is no longer about the specific workforce that's coming from the manpower and pooling. But it's more of what the companies are needing when it's about production and who's more gonna produce numbers for them and that's being seen through women.
I do agree with this on which there are really indeec companies are really just that  finding on a specific gender basing up on the work that they are really that looking for. Ex. If they are hiring some secretary then most likely it would really be that a female rather than on male. Why? Traditional reasons? Or simply that it is really just that women do fits out on such role or position on which it is really that there are some certain key
areas on which women do really fits out and this is why its not really that shocking that finding out a certain gender would really be that something relevant on said position.

Speaking about economical things, then i do agree somehow basing up on real experience on which we know that women are really that too serious on spending up money on which everything should
really be in according to plan and according to those set up things. They cant really just easily afford on things on doing on what arent really that something economical or worth.
This is why they would really be that spending up money wisely rather or in compared with man.Just like my wife or women out there that they are really that too careful
on buying something because they've been thinking up on advance that spending unwise will really be resulting into such problem later on.
650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino is a Games of Chance and Entertainment on: October 24, 2023, 06:52:02 PM
I would guess that there are some people who end up having a void in them that they fill with gambling and that's what makes a lot of people gamble without control. The ones who do not have a void like that, could still gamble but they would not lose control and they would do fine, and it's important to remember that you are going to end up with something that would be a lot worse, and should be the case.

I think the best thing to do would be trying to figure out what's wrong with you that caused this to make sure that you do not have that again, it would be a bit more permanent solution to a problem and not a temporary one. If you could figure that out, then even gambling becomes a better fun for you because you would not be losing all that much and you would be doing fine. Even if you are a wealthy person with 100 million in the bank account, that doesn't mean that you are not going to end up with no problems, you should always solve your own issues first.
There are better things than in gambling that can fill those gap better. If it's some kind of a problem, gambling or looking for any other things as a way to relax or escape is not also a good idea. It would be better to just face it and solve it, no matter how hard it takes. Just try. I know you will sort it out.

Yes, a wealthy person are not free from problems but it's not always about the money. It's all about family issues, partners, and some personal ones. They are depressed so they play gambling for fun purposes only. I wont say it's wrong. It is still fine of course as long as we do it in moderation because even if we play gambling this way, it's still possible for us to get addicted on it.
Everything should really be in moderation or something that would really be talking about control and this is something far way more better rather than on making yourself that being that impulsive on things on which you cant really be that able to control yourself on the time that you are really that in the verge of continous loss of money because of that impulsive behavior when it comes to gambling which we know that it is really just that a normal scenario to have on this way considering that gambling  could really always make a person do lose. Gambling isnt bad as long you do have that control, it would really be just become that a bad thing on the time that you are really that doing things which arent supposed to be done or gonna do like that spending up tons of money just because of some wrong ideas and assumptions.

We do know that casino games are really that indeed a game of luck on which luck is the biggest or main determining factor whether you would really be that being needing to win up but on the
general essence of gambling then it is really just that for entertainment. Making out some motives or intents that making  yourself that rich with gambling then this is where
things starts up on becoming messy or on the time that reality would slap into your face.
651  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How long to learn trading? on: October 24, 2023, 10:58:49 AM
honestly if you are eager learner and diligent enough a week will suffice, that you will get the gist of trading in general, but not really knowing the ups and downs of the trading.
it definitely requires you to learn so many books to accumulate the experience of trading as well as knowing how the market behave.
there might be some anomaly that going on in the market that might be different from what some books about trading has described but that also something that you will acknowledge along the way.
but overall I don't think it will be a long journey learning how to trade.
after all, even just trying out demo account in a day you already can trade, its all about getting profit from the price movement if you trade in spot.

Learning the basics in trading is easy, as you said, it could only take a week.
However, to learn those strategies could take years and years as you will learn a thing or two everyday you are in trading.
But if you do want to start learning those tips, better start with small funds so you can grasp what's the actual trading looks like.
Also, as each coin or token or any other currency have their different features, there will be no concrete strategy that can work on them. Usually, it is the combination of various factors and you will learn it thru time and experience.
but the basic learning isn't enough for us to learn the other side of the market and trading that will mostly brings us to some sort of wrong decisioning.
though we need to only understand this whole forum as the complete ideas and knowledge lies in here.
this forum have complete sections for everyone to learn and if that will be our main goal then surely it will come.,
also like you said , there are lots of books available online and also there are schools now that offers good education for traders or potential traders.
I let my Son enroll now in one university here as he keeps pushing to understand closer the trading
so yes now he is a student and hope that in the next coming months he will have a deep understanding and great knowledge about how to trade.
Wrong decisions are inevitable specially that we are really that just starting with trading, there's no fast pace on doing so because everything would really be just that depending on how fast you would really be that learning things along the way and it isnt something that would really be that so simple. Learning trading does really takes time and tons of effort and lots of understanding on what you are dealing with because if not
then there's no sense of direction on which you would really be that going. How long is really that something that would really be just that depending on how a certain individual would really be able to learn things up.

We know that each person does have that different ways or methods on handling themselves into things on which it would really be turning out that there would really be moments that easily could caught things and adapt
accordingly and there are people who do realyl struggles when it comes to this matter on which means that the fast way on learning will really be determined by different factors on which it could
possibly affect a certain individual.Not all would really be having on the same mental alertness, emotion handling, familiarizing and everything that could possible apply
on learning trading. THere's so much needed up to learn along the way.
652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling Generally An Illicit Activity? on: October 24, 2023, 09:51:53 AM

 Hi guys, coming through with a rather odd question this morning.

So, i was looking up on Wikipedia the meaning of Money Laundering , and below is a quote of how the site defined the term "Money Laundering"

Quote
Money laundering is the process of illegally concealing the origin of money, obtained from illicit activities such as drug trafficking, corruption, embezzlement or gambling, by converting it into a legitimate source. It is a crime in many jurisdictions with varying definitions. It is usually a key operation of organized crime.

So, after i saw that Gambling was mentioned or listed among the listed illicit activities through which money can or could be laundered, I can't help but wonder if gambling is actually an illicit activity.

Wikipedia did not mention gambling being an illicit activity in their definition of gambling here, why then did they mention gambling as one of illicit activity through which money laundering can be carried out?

Please check this out and share your thoughts.
Totally just that common sense in regarding with your question on which it is really just that pretty obvious that gambling would really be a considerable medium on where those tainted money or fiat would pass through.
We do know on how big this industry is and how big the money is really that involved with gambling on which it would really be just that normal that gambling could really be able to bare that kind of reputation on which it would really just that normal and this is why government would really be getting in between and set out those regulations just to get rid of  those fiat would really be tranferred or cleaned up with these mediums and this is why it would really be just that normal that they would really be setting those kind of terms on which it would really be just that normal.

There's nothing new and its always been that gambling do really get that bad image and its not something that surprising or shocking anymore.
This is why there are community that will really be getting that bad impressions or looks towards gambling which its that normal that it would really be always

You do well for bringing this to the forum to give awareness for everyone to see and be careful with their accounts. This thing you said is not only in gambling but also in trading platforms, I have seen this in trading platforms more than gambling side. I have received plenty message from telegram users to send them my account for them to trade on behalf of me then when they have made enough they would share it with me or I should registered in their platform and send them money for them to trade for me.

Mates, I refused to do that because I don't know who behind the scene to do me what is not good. Someone that has all the sense organs will not share his information to anyone to gamble because that is a personal security which the person must keep away from anyone. Ones again thank you for the information.

On a normal situation it is not a wise decision to sell an account not just an account but a verified account to someone you have no knowledge about just for the sake of getting peanut. Even to give someone to trade on your behalf is not advisable because you do not know the intentions of that person before bringing such proposals to you. No reasonable person would have such thought of giving out their account to person to trade for them.

I personally have had such proposals several times on telegram and whatsapp from contacts I do not  recognize. So of the contacts are international numbers I have no knowledge about so tell me how they got my contact is still a misery to me not to talk of having the audacity to make such proposals.  These days on e needs be careful how they engage in such conversations and deals so as not to get themselves into trouble.
Those offers are everywhere nowadays, and gamblers must be smart enough to recognize that whatever they are being offered for their verified accounts is not worth the trouble that is coming their way if they sell or lend their accounts.

However there are some gamblers that frustrated with the long term losses they are suffering at their favorite casino will consider any offer as long as it can make them money, a big mistake but we cannot prevent those people from making it.
Gamblers to can be frustrated to that extent of selling or leasing their accounts to people they have no knowledge about just to get some peanut as a result of their losses without thinking of the out come of what they have done. I believe sometimes these things are coordinated by the casinos to buy an account in the sense that they give a buyer the details of such gambler for them to approach so they could do their bidding and if I may be ask, how do they know account holders with the casinos they make proposals to buying their accounts. You see why sometimes I wonder and not bother because most casinos can be this funny to this extent.
Totally having no idea on why people are really that selling out their gambling accounts or tending to let other people handle it out?  Speaking about on peanut amounts then for sure it would be.
How much more if its KYC verified? You wont really be that so dumb on letting others be using up your account or would really be selling it.Its impossible that you would really just simply give out those accounts
which we know that it would potentially compromise your identity and this isnt something good. You might be shocked one time that there are some facing some legal issues. lol.

Anything that we do really see that those kind of asking about account borrowing or buying then it is really just that right that you should be doubtful about those probabilities.
You cant really be able to tell on what are their plans not unless if its someone your friend then it might do but if its on random people or person on net then
better be cautious and dont risks out.
654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Much do you Value your Privacy in Gambling? on: October 22, 2023, 01:54:20 PM
I value my privacy and I wouldn't use a casino that requires it, but let's say we have a strange situation, where I got mislead by the casino and thought there's no KYC, played for a bit and won a lot of money, but they want my private information. If there was a way to use someone else's data, I'd pay someone part of the profits to do KYC posing as me. Yes' I'd try to cheat here, but I'd feel cheated by the casino in the first place, so an eye for an eye Wink
If there was no way to do that without raising suspicion and risking all the money, I'd probably do KYC and take the money.
We're talking about $70k, so that's like a 3 year wage for me.
And this is the importance on reading up sites terms and conditions on which if they are really that having no KYC kind of term but having those side notes about having that having the full rights on asking one
then there's nothing you can do because they do have the rights on doing so on whatever they do like or when but usually it would really be talking about withdrawal period or moments but if you havent been able to
read up any KYC related kind of information then suddenly there's one on the time that they would be pointing for you to read on and then viola there's that info then it is really that surely be shady.
This is why it would really be that always important that you should really make out some screen shots if you are really that having no trust in the first place so that just in case that you've win something big
then you could really be able to show up some proofs that you havent been able to read something and that would bust them up but since majority of us doesnt really care on reading up sites terms and conditions
then for sure there's no choice for us to have at least some valid reasoning.

Showing no proofs about those kind of allegations or accusations would really be ending up on getting ignored which do really sucks. This is why if you do really value your privacy then
deal up with those platforms which you do know that they arent asking some KYC on the time that you do win big, but honestly finding one nowadays
is really not that easy anymore.Majority of them does have that kind of terms that they do have the rights on asking some verification anytime they want.
655  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop Trading on: October 22, 2023, 12:04:28 PM
You know, there's this saying that goes, "Not trading is also trading." Taking breaks and knowing when to stop is just as important as actively trading. Trading psychology is often overlooked, but it plays a big role in being profitable. The factors you mentioned are all part of the psychological aspect of trading, and it's crucial to avoid trading under those circumstances. A losing streak can really mess with your mindset, so taking a break allows you to analyze your strategy, correct mistakes, and regain confidence in your trades.

Right. The perfect term would be pause from trading tho that is exactly how OP explained. It would he a regret to ultimately stop. By taking a break, we can analyze what went wrong, identify patterns and refine our approach without the pressure of trading again. We have to do something different the next time maybe. When we acknowledge the necessity to pause so we can make rational decisions and avoid common pitfalls, I think traders will have better chances of long-term success.
I don't think it was regretting but it was regrettable if we pursued trading which only losses are what we get.
We know how to stop our journey. Maybe we could start again but in the meantime, while are correcting our mistakes and making some improvements, we'd rather take a break for a while. In fact, I did this before just to picture out where I did wrong and what is the best I should have done. That is how important to recall our past trader in order to see the error that can be corrected so it won't happen again or to avoid big losses.
We should really be that wary that losing is really that indeed inevitable on which having that kind of acceptance which it wont really be making you that impulsive or making yourself that desperate on the time that you do able to encounter it. This is why it would really be that wise that you should really know on when to stop or having a break rather than on forcing yourself on correcting things or trying to chase up those losses and trying to breakeven because on the time that you would really be doing such thing where desperation and emotions been mixed up. Then this is where mistakes do really result or making things or situations come more worst.
There are really indeed times which you would really be needing to stop and calling at a day.

Just like on what majority of people been telling and saying on here that there's no such thing as perfect trader on which you do have that 100% winning trade. All of us are speculators on here
on which it would really be normal that there would be trades which are losing and which are profitable it do really varies on how we do handle out ourselves in regarding into our trading career.
We cant really be perfect but doesnt mean that we would really be able to make ourselves wont really be making those common approach and analysis towards market.
It is time consuming and needs effort but we dont have no choice if we do really like to sustain out.

And reconsider the moment at 58 min 23 sec. where the Miposhka on Tusk saves Muerta. This moment blows my mind, it's why they won the game.
Aside from these plays from Miposhka, I am now more a fan of his. But first I feel bad for him when people have been bashing him for posting his pictures on social media which he's captioned like he's drugged or what. And with the video, I saw just after their match, he went to the fans and allowed them to have selfies with him, what a nice guy and this is why they deserve whatever they're achieving and what they've achieved in the past. And with the recent match, Shopify Rebellion is out while TSM moves to the next round and will face nouns. I guess that we might see some change in the roster since this team that's considered a powerhouse of NA is no longer the same as before. Our boy Arturo what you have been doing all of these times, he seems to be the center of blame of the lost bettors that bet on them.
Is Arteezy out of his prime or do really love on always choke? I would be not surprised if ever there would really be that disband of Shopify after this TI. They had been dropped and tons of bettors did
really blame out with that Willow carry which its a complete failure which the carry willow that we have seen on LGD is something that other players tending to micmic out. One of those players is Pakazs
which making use of this Willow carry which is good but still had lost up against GG recently.

Game clutch moves could really save up and the reason on winning the game.Its not really that new anymore but its good and thrilling to see whenever it do happens.
This is what we are really that expecting to see on internatationals.

This predictions I am seeing in the above screenshot which I took from the website op shared in his post; I would say is the author of that article trying as much as he can to be very conservative, that is; he tried as much as possible not to exaggerate which I think is a good thing, since he doesn't want to take the hope of his readers too high like several other authors I read and watch on YouTube do.

Anyways, predictions just as it's called, will ever remain prediction, who ever will believe completely what is predicted then does not know what the word "prediction" means or stands for , I will advice such person to find out what prediction mean in the dictionary.
I do really much prefer on seeing conservative approach when it comes to price predictions rather than on seeing easy $200-500k or even $1M predictions which i would really be saying that it would really be that delusional.
Seeing those numbers above then it is really that something that considerable but totally not that too high but rather be low considering we are talking 2030 year on which we know that we can assume on having that 1 more halving period which 69k ATH would really be just that too low when it comes to that time period but well there's no way on knowing on what would the future looks like. This is why when it comes to Bitcoin investment or whatever crypto you are holding into then it would really be that always ideal on investing on the amount on which you can afford to lose so that on whatever things that do happen in the market on the future
then you wont really be that worrying that much as long you havent invested your emergency or life savings funds then you should really just that fine.

Always stick with your own analysis and never ever making yourself that listening with those FOMO like kind of price approach on which it would really be giving out
that kind of boost up into yourself but making you impulsive is really that likely but of course we do have our own choices and decisions towards investment.
658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Nigeria socialite went all in on this sport bet on: October 21, 2023, 07:44:39 PM
It seems a loosing bet.
But I think this has been posted probably like some form of hidden advertising, or a banal attempt to promote oneself activity on social media.
I always find publishing these bet slips to be a bad idea, especially from the point of view of... superstition Roll Eyes

This was actually pretty close since it was 2:2 at the end, so Arsenal managed to score twice more before the end of that match. It was a very good match.

I can see he bet 5 million, but what currency. If it was Naira, it wasn't a big deal. Betting 5 million bucks would be something, but 5 million Naira? For most oligarchs it's pocket change. They pay that much for a private flight to a WEF conference Cheesy

I wouldn't react to someone else betting big money like that and I hope you didn't do it because by doing it you saved some money to play another day.
Yeah, its 5 million Nigerian naira you are looking at, if converted to dollars using today's exchange rate, that is around $4000 plus dollars.
I don't have this much yet, but i consider the amount too small for this particular elite man to lose in a bet, he is a billionaire, one of the richest men in Nigeria, 5 million naira is not up to the amount of money people of his caliber spend on food and drinks in a five-star hotel. So personally, this amount of money is not huge enough to cause him any form of regret if the bet loses, which i even suspect the best lost after all.
There are many gamblers from this forum who bet more $4000 dollars in one game, game they are confident they could win.
I havent seen on that "N" symbol or Naira on those numbers above shown in the image or did i just missed something? If it would really be just that Naira then it wont really be that much of a big amount which it cant really go toe with toe with those bets been done by specially by known gambler such us Drake which splurges out hundred thousands of dollars on a single bet. Even if you are a billionaire which it doesnt mean
that you would really be spending millions of dollars on your gambling bets on which it would really be just that depending if you are really that a gambler or not or simply that could spend up a small amount which he can afford to lose or simply just that enough for him to lose. $4k might really be that small for some people specially on to those billionaires or millionaires who are capable on doing such thing.

I dont know if this would really be just that right on using up that all-in word considering that it is really just that a dust amount unless if this would really be million dollars then it would really be that
a different story but if its not then it would really be that just a small amount if ever this bet would losses but if it do win then the amount would neither be significant or not
basing up whether this one talks about million dollar bet or naira been used but well its their money. Doesnt matter if your a billionaire or not.
659  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you manage your finances and family if your income is low range? on: October 20, 2023, 10:33:37 PM
Apart from that, if you don't have another source of income, you can use your free time to work on the empty land around your house, start planting various kinds of plants such as tomatoes, chilies and other vegetables. By having produce from your own garden, you can increase your income and save money on shopping for kitchen needs.

That's good advice but in terms of healthy eating, growing your own food is way healthier than buying processed food or food full of pesticides etc. But money-wise, having own vegetable garden is not as cheap as people might think. To grow quality, nutritious food, you need to feed the plants with proper fertiliser and water them regularly. Tending to your garden can also be time-consuming, and you could use that time to earn money. So often times, buying cheap fruits/vegetables from a supermarket can actually be cheaper, but the quality will always be on the side of home-grown.
Only to those people who arent busy are the ones who would really be that skeptical when it comes to proper nutrition but for those who dont have time or simply that busy then they would really be just choosing on whats the fastest way and cheapest way without minding about if ever its not that healthy as long they could really do the thing that they supposed to do then this is what they would definitely be choosing.
Its true that having your own garden and make some planting and growing your own food is never been that cheap and its true that it would really be requiring out such effort and time consuming
on which you would definitely be able to compare which one is efficient and which one could really take a toll for you to make money on something or with the time spent.

This is why only a few would really be taking up such path and only into those people who do have passive income or do able to make money or having stream even without having a physical or day job.
They would really be the ones who are really that busy on dealing up with things something like this but if you are someone who do have work 8-5 then for sure you would be skipping out such
idea and would really be just simply going into those options on which you could really be able to not to compromise your work which it would really be that
your main priority on which it is really just that a common approach.
660  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Much do you Value your Privacy in Gambling? on: October 20, 2023, 09:18:26 PM

Will you go ahead and provide them all they require from you for account verification, so they can process your withdrawal request, or will you willingly forfeit such amount of money back to the casino on the account that your private information is more expensive than that amount of money you have own from them?

I love to read your thoughts on this.

If I win 70,000 and KYC is required before I withdraw the money, it depends on how much I'm allowed to withdraw if it is by installment.

So there is three scenerios for this, if the withdrawal is substantial then I will render my identity as KYC.

If the withdrawal is in full or unlimited then I will not hesitate even as I can abandon the casino after withdrawal if I can be sure they are shady

Then lastly, I won't do the KYC if the money to be allowed to withdraw is very poor.


Are you talking about 70,000$ ? I don't think any site will let you withdraw this amount with the KYC. In most cases, the newly built casino may never approve your KYC when they come to know that you have 70,000$ amount in your account that you want to withdraw after successful KYC.

I don't think anyone will leave this amount with the gambling site and not opt for the KYC. For most people, money is more important than their KYC documents.

By the way, even if you abandon the shady casino after doing the KYC, the casino will keep your KYC data even if you close your account.
So thats a double loss,right? This is why it would really be always recommended on making up some research first before making deposit on any site even if we do say on depositing a few hundreds then it wont really be still giving out that probability that you wont really be able to face up some issues specially on the time that you do hit up some huge wins. Dealing up with non popular or new site will really always having that risks for you not to get paid out on the time that you do win big and its true that people would really be valuing money rather with their own idnetity and even myself would really be no doubt on complying KYC as long i could get that
$70k winnin on which it is already that big or significant if its converted into our own local currency which you could already buy a car and make a house with that amount.

So it isnt surprising that majority will really be doing their best or doing all they can as to comply things that being asked just to get that amount no matter what the cost
but in the end if you are dealing with a scam site then it would really be just that hopeless and ending up on having none.
So its really that important that you should really be that making out deposits into those known sites or to those reputable ones so that you wont really be
experiencing such problem if ever you do make a big hit.
