661  Economy / Economics / Re: How Much Does Food Cost in Your Country? on: November 09, 2023, 08:59:51 PM
Besides depending on your income you could afford more expensive food other people may not be able to afford, so I prefer to look at things in terms of percentage, so when I think about all the costs I have to pay to live my life and the amount I get paid I only need to spend 50% of my monthly salary to sustain myself and any other related expenses, which allows me to save half of my income which I eventually invest in bitcoin.
don't know your monthly income but I'm sure it's very difficult for us to maintain 50% for savings and investments, we know the impact of inflation has worsened the condition of countries everywhere, almost all aspects of prices have experienced drastic increases so we can only save around 15-20% per month, Sometimes I think about looking for another half-day job for additional income but job vacancies are limited due to the impact of many people losing their jobs during the pandemic, but however I will try to get other income to increase savings funds for my family's needs.
662  Economy / Economics / Re: How to avoid over expenses and have discipline on: November 09, 2023, 08:37:04 PM
In my opinion, one of the things that can be done for prevention is to do research in advance about what you really need within a month or one year, such as separating what your basic needs are within a month and if that's all you need then you can put the amount of money that you need for expenses, and also on the other hand we must learn to distinguish what is meant by needs and desires, sometimes people like to be fooled by something they think is a need when in fact it is just a desire from their lust that will only give them satisfaction but not get any other positive impact.
You are right, our effective steps must be to differentiate basic needs and other needs to organize maximum financial management. If we have a limited budget, we must calculate the amount of monthly expenses for basic needs and the rest for other needs if necessary, but I suggest you have monthly savings for increase emergency needs funds. Of course, managing financial patterns in life is very simple, but our instincts are difficult to control to buy other needs without consideration, which is why many people do not have emergency savings funds which are very useful for future financial needs.
663  Economy / Economics / Re: Real estate vs cryptocurrencies vs business on: November 09, 2023, 08:21:26 PM
For real estate, it can be done at any time if you have more ability in this matter, because most types of business such as real estate always require more capital at the start. Meanwhile, for businesses in the cryptocurrency sector, everyone can run it with minimal capital so they don't have to wait to accumulate larger capital and for real businesses such as marketing certain products, I think it just needs to be adjusted to the environment around each of us. Because not all businesses are suitable for different environments.
Investing in real estate and business must have a high threshold of funds to start developing real estate or business, but cryptocurrency investment is a different thing that cannot be compared with any business because everyone can start investing with unlimited capital according to the funds allocated for investment crypto portfolio.

Dominant crypto investments tend to be preferred higher than real estate and business investments, they have generated huge profits from the impact of the current market bulls and other profits will come in the next bullish period, high profits cannot be achieved in a short time when compared between real estate and business and even investing in gold, but crypto investment is high risk if you don't have the knowledge to manage crypto investments, and we have the knowledge and experience to survive in crypto investments until now.
664  Economy / Economics / Re: Any business where today you launch, tomorrow you begin making profit...? on: November 06, 2023, 09:18:59 PM
To answer from a slightly different perspective, a business without solid foundations cannot provide continuity of income in any way and even if it is successful at first this success cannot last very long. For this reason, instead of focusing on the profit a business will provide the day after its establishment it is necessary to focus on the details about how it can provide a continuous return.

In short, it is very unlikely that a business established today will make a profit tomorrow and ensure its continuity. Focusing on the profit potential that the business can provide continuously rather than the daily income it will provide after its new establishment will help you achieve better results.
I see that many new restaurant businesses seem to be popular in several countries, every new restaurant business launched can attract many customers because the design is still fresh and unique, they also promote the restaurant on social media. However, I agree with your opinion regarding a new business, there is no guarantee of sustainable profits, the potential profit is up to the first 1-2 weeks because many people want to try the taste of food and drinks at your restaurant and customers will start to decrease in the following month, but we remain focused on business to achieve annual targets rather than uncertain daily income.
665  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you rather start/grow a business from scratch or buy an existing business? on: November 06, 2023, 08:47:36 PM
Starting a business from scratch causes dealing with many problems from the very beginning. Taking over an existing business comes with its advantages. What we need to pay attention to is why are they selling the business we are going to buy? If the answer to this is sufficient for you, then taking over is a logical thing to do.

Instead of doing many of the things necessary to ensure that the business makes a profit while trying to establish a business from scratch, when we take over a business, these necessary things are already provided. There are many details and you should consider every possibility before making this decision.
If you are a professional businessman, you will choose the option of taking over a business because you have analyzed strategies to grow the business bigger, but you must have large finances to buy a trademark and buy all the details from the previous business owner.

But I am not interested in taking over a business even though I have business skills and financial support, but I will start a new business to increase entrepreneurship to build a business to achieve success.
666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's the best advice or should I just let him on: November 06, 2023, 08:22:11 PM
Maybe for now, let him do what he wants to do with his life. Anyway, he's a pensioner and his games are like his companion these days.
Try giving such piece of advice if he asks for it or give hints that he needs help about his gambling habits.
But without showing any indication that he needs help, don't offer it. As you said, he will just ignore those words.
He is enjoying his senior years, and maybe this activity is helping him to stay sane and active with life.
I agree with your opinion, we can only give advice if he asks for it but if your relationship is very close to the old widow then you can communicate the gambling problem to suggest gambling with limits and avoid the effects of gambling addiction. I feel sorry for the old widow who earns a monthly pension but her children don't necessarily send her funds every month. If he doesn't have other income then it won't be enough to use to gamble every day because he also depends on buying other necessities using those funds.
667  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Believe That Reading People's Bad Experience Will Help You on: November 06, 2023, 07:51:32 PM
I don't think it will help me in any way. If it's about bad experience from a platform, then I think it will help me. But personal experiences, grievances, and frustrations? That doesn't really add anything to my gambling experiences. Will it deter me from gambling knowing that other people have worse fates than me? I don't think so. Most of these people who have lost a lot of money in gambling didn't know the word 'control,' and will not stop from gambling until after their last penny has been spent trying to take back what they lost in gambling.

Everything in moderation is okay. People who don't take things in such tempo are those who are bound to get defeated by something that they thoroughly enjoy.
Many cases of various negative impacts from other people's gambling activities have been studied to increase knowledge so that you are not one of them. You have only taken one case of gambling related to loss of control or emotional gambling, but other cases include interpersonal problems with partners and friends, and cases of gambling addiction have psychological and mental effects. We can learn from many experiences to take anticipatory steps for ourselves to prevent the bad effects of gambling.

Many things are discussed on gambling boards regarding news about gambling experiences from outside sources or experiences from forum members which can be used as lessons to be careful when gambling. The more things you know the more you will gamble responsibly. .
668  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Chat GTP destroy poker on-line gambling??? on: November 06, 2023, 07:11:52 PM
we can't discard the fact that with the right codes and programmer's skills, any online gaming can be at risk if deployed by AI. so gaming platforms should always be on the lookout if someone is using AI, maybe they have the softwares to detect such movements. with the technological developments these days, it is no doubt that AI may somehow greatly influence how gaming these days work.
for physical tournaments, this may not affect the game. but for online gaming scenario, i believe, it will have a great role in the very near future.
AI programming will continue to be improved without us realizing it because some AI programs such as Chatgpt, automatic effects for media, voice changer translation have also been developed to a level almost reaching perfection, we are very worried that the development of AI can affect gambling which will have a negative impact on betting, if AI used by irresponsible gamblers to harm opponents in poker gambling.

I think casinos should immediately set up features to detect users using AI or bots, they should ensure the best gambling services for users and casinos should guarantee that no user can take advantage of AI to cheat other users.
669  Economy / Economics / Re: AI will put an end to work, says Elon Musk on: November 05, 2023, 10:46:17 PM
Humans aren't going to give up on tech so in the future we're going to work alongside AI. We're working with robotic colleagues today in manufacturing plants so it's going to be building on a platform which's commonly used. Robotics & AI aren't going to stop being used they're future's certain.
The need for human resource productivity will be reduced, we have seen how robotics works in companies to create products quickly and neatly, companies have had many layoffs because their jobs have been replaced by robots, they only need a few employees to move and lift goods using small cars. However, AI is scarier than robot technology, the basic development stage of AI can manipulate media in seconds compared to professional editors, AI can change effects, sound can even imitate sounds to be translated into other languages, etc. I think the presence of AI in work sessions can replace more human work.
670  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can it be real bull or just a temptation. on: November 05, 2023, 10:19:22 PM
Many people want us to say that we are in the bullrun or bullish because they are confused of bitcoin being in a bullrun or bearish, so bitcoin is having positive and that positive bitcoin is having in the market I will say that we are in the bullrun because the price of bitcoin now and like a month ago is not the same, so theirs increased in the price and secondly the price continues to accelerate from one level to another level, so therefore I believe that bitcoin right is at the increase state and its in bullrun in other way of understanding.
We consider that the market reality is having a positive impact on increasing to the next level, the increase reached more than 10% on the same day, so we think the market is bull run or bullish but not assuming that the market is rising is just a temptation. Another supporting aspect is that some positive news will come soon ahead of the halving period which will trigger market acceleration to reach high prices in a few months. I think we must immediately correct thoughts that are not correct in assessing the market, it is just a temptation, they will always fail in investing because they are hesitant and they will regret not having assets when the Bitcoin price has reached $50k.
671  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is horse racing so unpopular here and a bit of extra feedback on: November 05, 2023, 10:02:19 PM
The leading countries with growing Horse Racing markets are Japan, the U.S.A., Hong Kong, Australia, and France. I believe in the forum, it's not that popular because no one actually has done the research on strategies and how to actually pick winners. Perhaps we should start?

 Cool
Even though horse racing has grown in several countries that you have mentioned above, horse racing is only popular in certain regions of the country, although the interest of horse racing spectators is expected to increase, but they are not interested in gambling on the game. However we do not yet know how many gamblers are involved in horse racing on this forum because this board does not have a specific thread discussing horse racing so we cannot research the level of interest of forum users towards horse racing betting, if horse racing matches become more interesting and they will try your luck in betting on these sports.

Kemaren ane merasa juga agak berat ketika mau masuk ke forum, ane kira itu internet, tapi ketika kucoba buka situs lain, lancar jaya, cuma forum ini aja yang ane rasa berat sekali mau masuk. Bisa sih masuk, namun pas loadingnya lama banget, kayak ada sesuatu yang menahannya.
Mungkin agan bisa memberikan infomasi lebih detail pada jam berapa agan mengakses forum karena kemarin saya akses forum tidak ada kendala apapun, kadang-kadang pengaruh jaringan yang membuat akses pada situs tertentu mengalami lambat loading atau hal lain bisa jadi ada kendala teknis yang sedang diperbarui admin tanpa pemberitahuan maintenance karena tidak termasuk pembaruan besar yang membutuhkan waktu yang lama, seperti maintenance pada awal bulan ini yang langsung tidak bisa mengakses forum sementara waktu.
673  Economy / Gambling / Re: what are the best crypto casinos! on: November 05, 2023, 09:23:29 PM
Each person does have their own personal favorite which we know that we do have different taste and preference on things that we do encounter on which these kind of polls or voting arent really that something precise. When it comes to interest then each of us does have its own and this is why we do see different platforms does have different numbers of players who are really that playing.
Numbers are divided and this is why every site does have their own loyal players which they do find that the current platform or site they are in which they are really that comfortable on playing with or simply does really like that UI/UX in overall which it is also a contributing factor which it would really be making people stay even if there are places which do offers the same
set of games.
Every gambler has their own favorite casino site and maybe some gamblers have a list of 2 favorite casinos because each casino has different features, the main thing is that they stick to their favorite casino because of reputation and trust factors, many new casinos will find it difficult to compete with the top casinos even though they are building casinos with new games but gamblers will not easily leave their favorite casinos and they may register new casinos to get bonus offers but their principles will not change to gamble at their favorite casinos.
674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have your own casino. on: November 05, 2023, 08:56:29 PM
Actually why there will be not difficult to attract customers  because of the number of competitors are quite good in the market? But it is also true that a strong background and potential team with a good strategy can only be successful.
We find it difficult to attract customers from other gambling sites because many gamblers will not replace a gambling platform that has given them confidence in fair play and the best service for users, even though you have a potential team but to increase your gambling reputation will take time and a strategy to quickly provide bonuses Welcome every new user to make them interested in visiting your casino and make sure they feel a better gambling sensation at your casino.

I myself sometimes think that I will make a gambling website, but here various restrictions come in front of me.  The restriction at the beginning is that I have to invest money for the gambling website, which I don't have, especially after making the website, I have to make a budget for the promotion. Moreover, another big restriction is that crypto currency is currently illegal in my country, moreover, such casino's websites are also illegal in my country. That's why for now I have put down my dream about own a casino Roll Eyes
It seems that you have complex limitations to make your dream of owning a casino come true, the main thing you need is to have knowledge of casino management and to prepare a large budget to develop online gambling products and to have a competent team to run a gambling site. If you build a casino for a global target then you will not be constrained by your country's regulations because you can run a casino in another country and build relationships to get a gambling license.
675  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling on: November 04, 2023, 10:44:55 PM
Casino games can be very uncertainty when it come to winning because the house have big chances of winning than us who are just a gambler. There may be some gamblers who make good profits from casino games but that do not happen to everyone. There would be people that would lose there funds nit because they are not intelligent or do not have a better skill but we all can not be a winner at the same time. There would be people that would lose their bet and their will also be those that would gain. We might be always lucky to be among people that do make consistent profits from betting and that do not mean that everyone is making reasonable profits from the same bets.
We must underline your statement "because the house have big chances of winning than us who are just a gambler". So we prepare anticipatory steps to handle losses and gamble according to the funds we can afford, we must know that a high winning ratio is only obtained based on luck and there are always losses from other gamblers at the same time, the house will not be harmed in any way even though Gamblers get maximum profits in high bets, but the next gambling betting session will trigger a gambling addiction that involves higher bets so that they will experience higher losses than wins.
676  Economy / Speculation / Re: Has anybody expected this? on: November 04, 2023, 10:21:22 PM
Too surprising that it goes that way because what we are thinking is just a slow recovery and price pump but what happens is really unexpected makes people ask what is the cause. But till now, we're still in the puzzle of the reason behind and what some people are saying about ETF. Well, whatever it is, still it proves that nobody sees what really gonna happen, we are all just no-how and wondering. But I don't think it is necessary to know what is the reason and besides, we're ready for the pump and the coming bull run.
The relevance of the current market increase is very close to the influence of ETFs and perhaps some whales have prepared themselves before the bull market thereby triggering the impact of daily increases of up to $5k, we may not know the actual news on the influence of the market pump but we remain optimistic that the market will recover to reach ATH in the future regardless of anything that has a positive impact on the market.

But if we know the cause of the positive news that supports the current market rise then we will soon see the price above $40k, the price recovery will soon reach ATH before and maybe the price of $60k will be reached sooner than we thought and we have been waiting for that moment for some last year.
677  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is doubling your investment more probable than we think? on: November 04, 2023, 10:04:51 PM
what you are applying here is the bitcoin investment method with DCA, so regardless of the price of bitcoin, you will buy it within the time period you planned, apart from that, only using money that we can lose in Bitcoin investment is a good thing in your financial management, buying bitcoin at a price like now will give you many benefits, sooner or later, bitcoin will definitely make a new ATH, so those who buy bitcoin regularly will definitely be lucky in the future.
Even though we apply the DCA strategy, we must prioritize buying bitcoin at a lower price than the current market price to get maximum profit, the impact of market fluctuations allows the market to experience a market correction after a high increase, so we still have the opportunity to buy at a lower price and even though If you are focused on long-term investment, we still prioritize buying Bitcoin at the right price. The key to successful bitcoin investment is to be patient to carry out your investment strategy, my friend said he would invest if the price of bitcoin fell below $20k and he had been waiting for it after the last ATH last year, he had collected a 1x profit from his investment capital.
678  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: November 04, 2023, 09:42:39 PM
The thing is that, if you are really prepared to to earn some decent amount in refersl, it quite easy even though the referal chasser is ready to sacrifice time and energy to build their cycle and network that will keep the traffic of the the programe to be able to accumulate eneough end of the month bonuses.
Hunting for referrals for gambling will be very difficult compared to referrals on other platforms, we need a long time to recruit many community members to follow us, but if we have analytical skills in sports betting or other gambling with accuracy that can win bets then they will be willing to join your referrals.

Quote
As a referral chaser, it goes beyond just having people register under your link to how many activities and wagering amount they can do per month because that is what will amount to how much earnings they get for the end of the month.
So we must prioritize referral members from active gamblers rather than having many members who are relatively not active gamblers. Our target must be to get lots of active gambling members with the most gambling activities so that we will get a high referral bonus every month.

Do you keep a record of winnings and losses in gambling? Many here will feel that this is waste of time and will also not let them enjoy the game peacefully. Do you also have same mentality?
Nope this is not waste of times nor this is a good one as we all know that recording our losses is good enough to be more careful nextime cause we can see in our record how bad it is, and also once we are tracking our losses we can control ourselves in our next bet. Anyways still it's up to us if we gonna track our record or not cause there's re many gambler that they don't have to worry all about si they will not going to track thier losses.
We can track losses from the game history or compare deposits and withdrawals, I'm sure on average they experience losses rather than wins when comparing from the withdrawal side, but gambling is not a factor in making a profit because I gamble for entertainment and I am prepared to accept losses from using funds limited to gambling, some gamblers may not have the mentality to calculate the funds that have been used for gambling, but some gamblers do not care to track previous gambling history because they are not ready to accept losses from gambling.

Bet big? What is big in your opinion? Your understanding of big might be different from what we and owners of Stake think it is.
If you really see it happening this way, why wouldn't you record your session and put it on youtube? I could be sympathetic if I saw this happen. If you were to bet in a pattern like this ($1 W, $1 W, $10 L, $1 W, $1 W, $10 L, $10 L and so on), people might start to believe you, but for now it's your word against the casino's.
I don't think that it's rigged but if I lost a million dollars I'd probably change my mind. You can go crazy after such loss.

Maybe the OP is gambling with a different playing pattern and he has explained that he will always raise the bet every time he loses, so the gambler should know the algorithm of how the slot casino works then he will not accuse the casino of being rigged because the slot casino has low potential to win and the solution must minimize losses for the next betting session.

Don't play emotionally to increase your bet every time you lose because you will experience high losses and won't be able to recover your losses if you gamble with a pattern like that, that's why I rarely play slot gambling because it has an impact on the emotional factor of risking all my funds.
