The Human Nature is unaccountable... The more you have the more you want...
That just an issue for greedy rich guy like Scrooge McDuck maybe, which never satisfied with his wealth. If we have retired, nothing we need except resting and enjoying our remain life.

But hasn't bitcoin been banned in Russia? I was answering a question for this forum and I read something which made me curious to know how many countries have banned bitcoin. I researched a little and found countries like Bangladesh, Vietnam, etc. I also found Russia made into the list, so I don't really expect to find a lot of Russians in this poll. Sure, some people fake their identity but in reality there are very less bitcoin users from Russia.
Really curious how many countries that ban bitcoin? Read here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_countryBitcoin banning by government wont stop people to use bitcoin, there are many ways to get into it. Wanna see how many Russians here? Maybe you can check their local section https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=10.0

there isn't a good way, it's all about luck, otherwise everyone should've been rich already, but since it isn't the case, if you aren't rich it mean that you are not lucky enough
even those rich guys that who have struggled to achieve their position, they had a big luck somehow in their life, that helped them
No it isn't. That's a defeatist attitude. Luck may be a component, but if bill gates or warren buffet kept their current knowledge but suddenly lost all their contacts/wealth and became a 20 yr old again, do you think they would not succeed? I mean they might not become multi billionaires, but I'm certain they could at least easily earn millions. Like Amph said, yeah I think luck has big effect in the way making someone to get rich. Bill Gates could be success because he was born at right moment, which there was no many computer technology at that time. Then he grabbed his chance to build Microsoft. Luck is not main point to make us get rich, but it has bigger portion than other things.

Seems you got profit with your current bankroll, but I cant follow all your picks since not all bet categories is provided by directbet on those matches you have posted. And its be harder because you didnt tell what the competition those matches are.

Over 3 @ 1.748 Real Madrid has very good attacking, and there are usually a lot of goals in friendly match.
Lost my bet, obviously. Can't believe the game is scoreless after 90 minutes... Yes, people seem to not understand the match is over...
Those people don't even read the posts above them lol. They just made the post to boost their post count. Well although they played totally in this competition, but the friendly matches are unpredictable game. Friendly match is a competition where the coach would make new strategies or give more chance for young players to show their ability. I think the better way is make score prediction or numbers goals instead of who will win.

Well you still made too many predictions today. Although as gambler we hold the principal of "to gain high profit we need to face high risks", but atleast we should avoid or reduce the risks. I dont want to bet for today, just watch what you will get with this.

I think Bipolarbob has left for another forum long long time back. There are many people here who received his love with free or super discounted gift card, some dude even created a thread when he got a 50$ gift card for just 6$ from bipolarbob, and bipolarbob's funny puns were really nice. Some guy advised him that he should get an avatar and he responded back saying,'I liked the movie but I don't know what the big deal is' ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Well atleast he still made a great giveaway thread few days ago that gave $5 for first 100 posters ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) He is a nice guy who like to help other person, not to enrich someone.

I heard somewhere that 80% of Africa use bitcoin. I don't know if there is any truth in this but it looks like Africa did quite well they came third for more than 50
If you have read some bitcoin articles, you can find there are many people who try to develop bitcoin in Africa, even Bill Gates through his foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates foundation. With many economic problem in Africa, its a nice step to make people there be interested with bitcoin.

Everyone needs money, everyone wants money, and i don't think that wealth can be boring any day, yes but when you are wealthy many things comes to your mind and the first thing is how can I increase my wealth or double it, it is not boring but wealthy people are continuously involved in thinking how to take care of their wealth.
Every non rich guy include me say that wealth is everything, and thats why we always work hardly to reach it. But some of my friends who born in rich family, stated that they are bored with their wealth which they couldnt really enjoy it. But, actually it depends on our own perception. These persons are different. They cant value their riches. They dont know how much work was involved to get this money. So they have money and time and nothing to do. It would have been better for them when they would have to learn how it is to create something or to live on nothing more than what you can create with your own work. But there are many person like that, and than make new business with their money, they prefer to continue their family businesses, so dont need to feel worry about their wealth for next generation, since their companies have got stable position and income. Thats why they always feel bored with their wealth, because they never face any challenge in their life.

If bitcoin seems like gambling to you, what about stocks? They might seem the same to you right? Bitcoin is a long term investment, and many people have reaped its benefit already. It is more than just investing a certain amount and hoping its price will increase.
Then could you give me an example of bitcoin investment? I only know about hodling, but I think that just a saving, not investment. As per real estate, it is only an investment if it is at a good place and location. And most often, people cannot afford investing in real estate because its too costly.
Its not hard to find good location for your real estate investment. You should need high capital to get high profit in your investment.

Impressive there are more people think BTC will be the default money rather than USD.
This is the bitcoin forum alright!
Still i do not think dollar will be replaced. Why? Because even now we measure the value of btc's by dollars. This will never change.
Well I never find any fiat forum There are many other fiats beside USD, like GBP and EUR. Well at that time governments werent a bunch of greedy politicians, they really gave their best to their people and their country. Now, government always take profit from any activity in society.
When i borned who hasnt money to pay exchanges things without the taxes.... what changed from past to the curent?Politicians steal our money ,and declare war to others,inteasd they worry with who has nothing to survive how much do you think they spend in army ,and how much they get to their pockets? Then do you think I support government? But actually most people say they hate government, hate taxes, and anything related to the government. But I guess they will forget that if they have worked in the government sector.

yes save part of the money your salary for savings due to make their own businesses need big capital, unless your parents rich you stay request money to your business
If you are rich person, then why you make it be complicated with build your own business, just continue your family business then. Just follow bobsurplus around and you can get rich.
Not bipolarbob? We shouldnt take advantage of his kindness to make us rich.

You are using the wrong term for this basically you are not investing but you are saving as because the main point of this would not be to get more but rather to secure your belongings. Saving is about securing your belongings and security . The words investing is only used if you are looking to get more of what you have invested which means that there is an interest rate that you gain from each of your capital
I think its better if you could explain what the examples of investment in bitcoin to us here, since many people hard to differ what is investment and saving just from those meaning, which in saving we also can get interest with time deposit.

Hahaha its not impossible that the bitcoin price goes up, because we all know that the stability of the price is not stable and change in every hour.
Yeah actually I am same with you, hoping bitcoin price goes up someday atleast reach $500, but I cant see anything that can become a trigger to make its price goes up rapidly. With Greek crisis, its price went up just around $50. Of course is a risk, Antonopoulous always says so himself, BTC is very high risk investment, but as should you know, if you play in the high risk leave, you play in the high rewards league (assuming big losses league are included, but things look good).
I prefer to do sport gambling then, which dont need long time to get the result. Its really very risky to make bitcoin as long term investment.

Taking the role of an entrepreneur, you can use other peoples money for the investment. The only difference is that you can not decide for yourself, you will have to persuade someone else that the project is profitable, and that you are trustworthy. For a good project, there is always money.
Exactly, thats why the most important point to build own business are talent/skill and luck, not always need capital. With talent, we could attract investors attention to invest in our business. And we always need a small part of luck, to get the attention. Sometimes we can make business with our luck to get capital from investor although we only have average skill.

Hahaha user's problem, they got panic if they saw that bitcoin price is going down. But we all know that bitcoin price is temporary and its stability change anytime. Just have a long patience when the price of bitcoin goes up again.
And what do you think about bitcoin price that have reached $1,000 but went down and never go up to that price again? There were people who lost much because of that, and blamed their friends who recommended bitcoin for them as an investment. We need aware to little change in bitcoin price, dont need to panic, just aware it. We all know that everything has a risk, so if you used something you must know the responsibilities. Yes you are correct they should aware about that, but why you used bitcoin or try it if you don't even know what it can do with your money? I think your friend should told you about that. Investment is a way to get profit which we should reduce any risks or anything to get profit as much as we can. Seems you havent got into bitcoin in 2014 when its price was $600 and went down next months until $300 now. Hodling bitcoin is a risk, then I only can say good luck to you, hope you will get much profit.

Well Mike Tyson has rebranded himself pretty successfully in a funny likeable guy. He has a successful cartoon airing in Adult Network and his Broadway show was a success. He is no longer the guy that would make the entire room scared shirtless as he stepped in. I think he is a very likeable character nowadays.
Actually I never seen Mike Tyson as a funny person except in The Hangover, and most of people in my city still knowing them as a scary people who did bad things in the past. But yeah that would be great if he really could make people be attracted with bitcoin.

If you really dont have any money or other capital to make your own business, the last way to get rich is make sure you have a special talent. There are many profession that doesnt require huge capital, like singer or sportsman imo. In bitcoin world, the best way is having a talent in code programming or anything like that.

I dislike taking loans in general. I think I would not take a loan in Bitcoin. But in my case it's not an entirely Bitcoin specific loan aversion
Yes I think taking a loan is not an good idea and that also on bitcoin doesn't sounds great, It is better that we work hard and earn bitcoins rather then going for a loan, as you never know anything could happen and it is not safe to go for a loan you might loose your bitcoin as well. Thats why we need a collateral to guarantee us that our loan transaction can be safer. And the collateral must have higher value than the loan, so no one cant get loss. Atleast with the loan, we can help other person for his business.
