I would agree with some of your points about financial stability being one of the bedrocks of a successful marriage. But one key factor I will want to point out is no amount of financial stability can be used to run a home in which both parties aren’t satisfied with each others class. You don’t need to be excessively rich to get married but both of you need to understand each others status and try to bring up children in that class, not spoiling children at early ages and then try to limit them after, they have already open up and as such will start looking for other means to get what they were denied.
There is no second option about being financially stable before getting into marriage but you can’t gather all the money before marriage, you just need to get a well structured source of income first. Financial independence doesn’t guarantee a better upbringing of children
Financial independence may not also the key for a happy and successful marriage as well as well raised children. It's not on the money but on how the parents develop effective parenting to their children that will help them grow and live life like everything gets valued. However, having money and we'll structured source of income is a great advantage when entering a married life. Thus, you will not worry anymore if both of you have something to eat today and in the following days, because you have consistent flow of income that you can rely on. |

Buy a little bit of bitcoin every week don't care if it's a $1, $5, $10, $100, figure out what you can afford every week and buy it, get rid of unnecessary expenses or whatever you can think of getting rid of and spend it on bitcoin
5 to 10 years if you buy some every week you will be a multi millionaire
In short, do the DCA. It doesn't matter if you have small or big amount, what is important is you do it consistently and increase the volume of your bitcoin portfolio months and years doing DCA. If you keep following the DCA pattern, you will never find it hard investing in bitcoin because you are not doing all in investing, but more likely an installment basis. And that's the good thing about it because you will never force to borrow money or take some debts just to start buying bitcoin since you only spend an amount that you can easily afford to lose. |

In my opinion, there is no good and consistent strategy or analysis in sports betting, because everything is a factor of luck and analysis can only improve the quality of our knowledge in sports and bring little chance of winning. However, that doesn't mean that every analysis you get will always win.
When you believe that everything is all about luck, then there's no reason to analyze the game as what we work hard would still be useless. Perhaps try to change your perspective in sports betting as it's not the same as the games with a house edge, here there's a real chance that we will succeed as a sports bettor, and although some may so negative about the word "succeed" in sports betting, if you believe on it, nothing will stop you. I'm sure you've search search some strategies that could help you win, there are lots of videos in youtube, and even you can find some testimonies from people who claim they are making money in sports betting, so if those interest you, you wouldn't say that sports betting is just all about luck. |

If you are knowledgeable and skillful with bitcoin, then why not? I have known people who have transform their lives from poverty into living comfortable lives right now because they believe in bitcoin and because they make sure to maximize bitcoin opportunities while they are still available. Poverty will never be completely eradicate but with bitcoin's presence, life can be more meaningful and valuable if we make sure to never miss single opportunity from bitcoin.
If we can use bitcoin in a more positive way, like taking advantage of all the opportunities that bitcoin has, then I am more convinced that bitcoin will really reduce the poverty that we are facing at the moment. And if more people will be introduced to bitcoin, then there will be more chances that poverty will slowly eradicate in time.

Why not just do a parlay? That way you will not miss the opportunity to bet.  It's good to parlay if you will decide to play the next game if you win, but for me, I woudn't bet on the moneyline which is 1.12 only. Magnolia lose on their previous game, so against the weakest team in the PBA now, I think they'll win and cover the spread. The current spread is -12.5, I think this only signifies that we are gonna see another blowout win by the Magnolia Hotspots. Therefore, personally I would take this early as I have a feeling that the line will move to as high as -14.5 nearing game time. |

~~those who make money on your own losses are the true profit earners.
If this is on sports betting, yes, that's right because it's one side vs the other side, one side will only win and you are good if you belong on the winning side.However, if it's for the casino, it's the house that wins most of the time, and with this, you'll likely lose your money in the long run if you think of getting into it seriously. Your skills might earn you money in other way, like business or job. So the amount you win should be carefully manage, don't put it all in gambling especially if you don't have the skills to win, just play for fun and your life will be peaceful. People would only hate gambling if they lose so much, but in reality, they hate themselves for being irresponsble. |

It was just the right amount of spread for the Golden State Warriors as they won by 4 points. Thankfully my greed didn't activate and I accepted the 1.69 odds.  Great job, reducing the spread help it. Looks like you know what's gonna happen, Genius! Houston Rockets gave the Milwaukee Bucks a bit of trouble but like I said, their stars are rested well enough due to their big win in their previous game so they can still play until the end without any sign of exhaustion. Plus it's a home game so they might as well win it for the crowd. Giannis let Lillard do his thing and he scored 39 points in the process.
Rockets were able to make it close actually, they aren't going anywhere but they were fighting the whole game. However, frustrations probably sink in to them as they weren't playing within their pace anymore, in additiona, Brooks was ejected and their coach, so it's a total mess. Despite that, I still think it's good to back the Rockets on their next game as they are a legit team with a good standing this season compared to the last. Actually I won on this game as I took a live bet with a handicap of +9.5 in favor of the Rockets. The New Orleans Pelicans won by a big margin. San Antonio Spurs are back to losing games.
They were lucky they beat the Lakers and their long losing streak was stopped, but they are back to reality again, I think they'll start filing a losing streak. |

Not necessary to give you names of the gambling sites because you can easily find it if you will explore at the gambling section. Their profile is what says about their reputation, so just make sure they don't have a negative feedback as that could put your money at risk.
A legit gambling site wouldn't freeze your funds even if you win big, they have the rules to implement, and if you are following, there's nothing you should worry. Additionally, I'm suggesting that you should get yourself ready with the KYC requirement as big wins or wagers, usually the site will require its user to pass basic KYC.

I still think that #HODLing is much better than trading. This has happened several times where we have seen the price of BTC go up, then go down and then go up several times. When that happens I often regret that I would have preferred to trade rather than hold my assets. HODLers just need extraordinary patience to reap the benefits. And it's not easy for everyone to do even though it's actually a pretty simple thing.
If you can hold and trade at the same time, then that would be a lot better since you can maximize your future profits without focusing on one only. However, I also come to realize that hodling alone is never easy and will certainly test your patience and faith when hodling for long term. Most especially for bitcoin that is highly volatile, and that anytime its price will fluctuate or experience market crash. But it's undeniable that hodling is less risky and less stress compared to trading. |

There is no restriction to who can own a Demo trading account, a new trader or an expert trader. I know many traders may feel like they are now bigger than demo accounts, and only new traders should have demo accounts for demo trades, but I think that to avoid losses still, expert traders should also have demo accounts for trying out new strategies before they try it live. What do you think?
Do you as an experienced trader that has made profit from the market repeatedly, do you still have a demo account for trying out new strategies?
I believe using a demo account aims to prepare yourself to prevent from future losses in trading. But that is only on the newbie's point of view as it's like a necessity for them to use demo account before they take risk in the real scenario of trading. However, for expert traders, it could be another way around. Using demo account is not useful anymore, as they have the skills and trading experiences that they can rely to prevent and limit their losses in trading. In the end, using a demo account is left on the individual traders if they still think it would still be helpful for them or they just have to trade directly with their real account. |

He probably didn't care as he wasn't suspended the first time, Draymond had a problem that needs to be fix and the NBA will assure he will only be able to come back once he fulfill all the conditions. Draymond is an NBA champion, won championships with the Warriors being one of the leaders, so this is a huge blow for the Warriors as a team, not only that Draymond loss millions due to this suspention that he won't be paid for not playing, but more so, the damage he brought to the team because of this reckless action.
The Warriors have a mediocre performance this regular season, and the fact that they lost Green indefinitely will probably make their spot in the standings even worse. Does Green realize his responsibility to his teammates and that his actions only hurt the team? I doubt it. They aren't gonna make it to the playoffs, even with Draymond playing good basketball, they've already showed their inconsistency. Only Curry was consistent so far and we've seen he could not carry this team when the rest are playing below their average. Players that needs to step up like Klay Thompson, Wiggins, and even CP3, the team payed their players with a significant amount and yet they aren't producing what is expected. Maybe someone will disagree with me, but I think the Warriors management made a mistake signing such a big contract with him. I mean, they could have used that $100 million to sign a few good players who would have been much more useful on the court than Green.
It was only a mistake because of what happened to Draymond, but did the management expected it? No, because during their run, I mean everytime they win a championship, Draymond always had a big contribution. Even remember when the Warriors lost to the Cavs in the NBA finals because Draymond was suspended one game when he hit Lebron in his sensitive area. |

Are you guys watching the game now?
Rain or shine and Magnolia is currently playing. As of now, the game seemed to be very competitive, so this is enjoyable to watch. This one is not probably a low scoring game as it looks like they'll score at least 100 points before this first half will end. IIRC, the total in this game was 201.50, bettors could easily jump on the under since Magnolia is a low scoring team, especially when they are in control of the game.
I'm waiting for ROS to take a good lead and I'll bet on Magnolia during the break, hopefully ROS will extend their lead to at least 10 points. \\
Took Magnolia ML @2.40

Business is really important in one's life. If you don't have any extension from your original source of income, you will really find it hard to sustain all the needs of your family, and if ever you can, saving for emergency funds will not be part of the plan anymore. That's why its an advantage if we have a business that will help to generate profits for us. In case we lost our job, we still have another soure of income that will provide for us.

>> Do not try to gain extra profit. Remember that expecting too much profit can make you addicted to profit and incur huge losses.
Op this is a perfect warning, many people will not hear this warning and continue their greediness to loss all. Well as they said, "experience is the best teacher". When I first started my trading, I first deposited the amount as dollar the converted it to Bitcoin in the trading platform and startes the trading. At first I got $20 and instead of me to withdraw the $20, I was expecting more from that trade and I lost everything in the trade. And I remember this thing from your statement. When one is so much expectancy then the end result is bad. As I said before even though you set stop loss and take profit, you can still lost. Most of the beginner traders are greedy, so as early as now, they should be exposed to the realities that not all trades result into profits, majority still end with losses. That way, they will start trading with less emotions and as much as possible, controlling greed is necessary not to incur huge losses at the end of the day. Yes, trading gives us an income, but that's only for good and professional traders. Otherwise, trading without skills and experience will only result into negative losses that some end up into depression. |

Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.
Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.
I think that's kinda normal. Some people finds betting with their favourite teams more pleasurable than without placing a bet at all, some may not. When you're a type of person who easily gets disappointed especially when your favourite team losses, I guess placing a bet on it makes it more stressful for you. The good thing about placing a bet on sports betting is it adds a little intensity while watching the game as long as the game are close, having a huge gap in score losses the intensity of the game. You have to choose, either you bet without pressure but you'll end up unsatisfied. As a gambler and a sports enthusiast, these two factors are already considered when we are watching games, we don't want without placing a bet, so we have to get used to that pressure as I'm sure eventually we will be able to learn to control ourselves. Everyday there's a game, we don't only focus on one league, we could bets on other league so there's always fun everyday, and that could only achieve if we have already matured in gambling as controlling our emotion is easy. personally, I haven't totally matured yet as I still experience the kind of feeling from time to time but I'm still thankful that I didn't lose a lot of money that I regretted although I already lose a significant amount. |

^^ It's really unpredictable games, specially the Heat vs Bulls, when we think that the Heat is going to win at home. But the Bulls come in strong in the first quarter and building a solid lead. But I thought that my bet has still a chance as I put on the Heat my handicap.
However, it seems that the Heat doesn't have the legs specially in the 4th.
I predicted the Bulls to win beause they were playing competitive basketball although they fall short in the end. Just like when they played the Bucks, the game went to OT but they lose, so I was thinking maybe they could win or at least cover the handicap being the underdog at home, and I was right, they were up early and it's just enough for them to win by not allowing the Heat to come back and beat them. Same with Luka, when Exum has a solid game against the Lakers, but against the Wolves, he as check and they just rely on Luka. But his 39 points and 13 assists was not enough.
Wolves have a different kind of defense, so you can't compare them with the Lakers. They are the number 1 team in the West for a reason. This game was a dominant win by the Wolves, and that is even Edwards was struggling with his shooting as he was only 3/19 and end up scoring 9 points only. |

Let your mom do it for you. If she is always after with the money and profits, and your safety is her last priority, then she is not a good and responsible mother in the first place. However, judging your mother is not my thing, but if she is nagging you to drive the truck knowing its bad condition, then you might lost your life in the process just to save for that one last money.
Not all risks should be given consideration to be taken. Sometimes you also have to evaluate it first before you decide to take the risk. But with your situation right now, you are putting your life in danger if you follow your mother's order, so tell her without offending her that this time, you have to save yourself first than to regret it later.

Maybe it is time for the draft lottery mechanics to change. I do not agree anymore that these worst-performing teams should get the highest chances of getting the number 1 pick. I would like it more if all teams that failed to qualify for the playoffs should have an equal percentage of getting the number 1 pick.
I don't think they'll work on changing the current rules with your suggestion. What the NBA is trying to achieve here is on balancing the NBA, and that every team are going to benefit and the fans would be interested in watching. Just like the 76ers before, they had a bunch of number 1 pick before they actually become a good team, so it's quite helpful that way. Spurs may struggle so hard this season, if they'll get another first round pick, then most likely they'll not end up at the bottom again. I also think that Spurs do this on purpose since they want to get another first round pick that's why they are not really bothered to lose this season again since as stated they are in rebuilding mode. And they are just leaving this season to develop Wemby that's the reason of all of there negative performance show in this conference. That's crazy assumption. Why would coach Pop do that, it will only tarnish his legacy in the NBA. He is one of the best coach in the NBA and would do that stupid things, I think your imagination is beyond the reality, hehe.. but I respect what you think mate. If this is the real case here then maybe there's something to investigate about and if there's a proven case of something like this happening maybe there's some changes needed to do so that they can make the league more balance and no teams would do this actions and make the league more balance then competition became more tighter since this is what fans actually like to see on each game they watch.
NBA did make the rules, teams are just following or playing with the rules, and as long as their strategy doesn't violate the rules, there's nothing to investigate on this matter. And besides, if Spurs would get another top 1 draft pick, that doesn't guarantee them to become a playoff team. |

New users within the crypto space should understand that crypto trading is different from gambling where a mere prediction can yield result. As a newbie within the crypto space kindly check the following before you go into trading.
1. Learn about the volatile market
2. Learn how to analyze chart
3. Take your time to practice demo trading before going into real trading.
4. Do not be greedy, take profit when it’s best to do that, do not hope to get the whole world at a time.
You need to understand the learning process takes long, you have to be calm and follow through the process, if you’re too interested in the profit and not the skill or you don’t have time to do so, you can opt in for copy trading where you get to copy trade from elite traders and make profit, though copy trading is not available on all exchanges just few exchanges like Bitget has it.
Good luck newbies❤️
No matter how you are going to educate newbies in trading, its undeniable that we will still see them trading like gambling at first. Trading with lack of experience is still like playing gambling, you are just waiting for your luck to favor you so you can win and beat the other players. But as you go on trading every now and then, your knowledge and skills will improve and develop, your strategies will be more enhanced as well, that made you a better trader in the process. Experience will always be the best teacher as they say, and has been proven by everyone that succeeds in trading. |
