It is better to believe in own abilities and increase knowledge in the field of sports and this can be much better than just relying on prediction which is not guaranteed to give victory.
I agree.

We have our own greatness in gambling. We may sometimes stumble and have some bad day but it's not always like a bad day. There are moments that we're so good and we realize that to ourselves.

Relying on someone's prediction and even they're not experts is like a lazy task that you're allowing people to do a thing on your money.

If you're good with that then always allow people to invade you with your gambling decisions and see how it will end.
Also it do give out that kind of regret feeling on the time that you do follow someone and ended up on a loss just because you have trusted up them well and this isnt something my forte.
I would rather accept my loses on having those kind of predictions on my own rather than on losing just because its been given by some so-called professionals or predictors.
Right.

You have no defense with that when you followed that prediction of any person you whom trust with your money and then you suddenly lose. You can't do anything with that and you have no one to blame but yourself.

That's why if you're going to make predictions, do it on your own and follow it when you're comfortable. So that when you win, it's your pride and if you lose, you're going to blame yourself and it's not that bad at all because you are the one who bet with your money and not dependent on others predictions.

That's true and it's a real situation that's being dealt by many. It's easier to work for the food that we shall put in the table than to buy an insurance.

This varies to the situation of living and I think poorest of the poor, can't really avail these insurances. But if you're a working person and a family guy, at least allocate to the best that you can for your income's protection and assets too.

We don't want to foresee what may happen in the future but it's the reality that everyone has to go through.
This is why they would really be trusting up everything on God above on whatever the things that might happen into them on which they do know that they cant be able to afford on having that insurances
just because they do give out priority on what they could really be able to put up into their table on which it would really be just that a normal that you would really be giving out priority of it
rather than on considering on taking up or getting some insurance on which they do know that neither they could be able to make use of it or not. That would really be on their least priority
on which we know that this is something that they would really be thinking off with.

Just let people do their thing because when it comes to survival then we would really be doing on what we do see which is right. We cant really make ourselves
give out priorities into something which is more important than with food. We do know on what are the basic and main needs on which it would
be normal that we would be focusing into it.
That's their least priority because they are challenged to bring food to the table but I hope that those families that are in that situation will have a better life in the next few years of their survival.

So that they will get to understand the importance of having an insurance and that also means that they're able to upgrade their lives and are starting to have some relief with their kind of living.

Yes, they will just do their thing and so do we. This is the reality that no one will help you out unless you're able to help yourself out first and have your family helped out first before anything and anyone else.

This is quite interesting op but how do i join in the Bivest campaign if it is still open?
This thread is specifically for bitvest concerns and not of the campaign, there is the campaign thread that's for this concern of yours.

And with that, you have to read the updates if there are open slots or none. But I'd do you a favor that there are some slots for senior members only if you read the second to the last update of our campaign manager, Brainboss.

Okay whales, pump Bitcoin up!  I need to make a big profit on this.  And do whatever it takes to surge Shiba Inu as much as possible too.  It doesn't have to be true, it just has to make me money.
LOL.

Meme coins have been pumping but it's still far from the ATH but if you're able to buy it when it's on a slump then congratulations to you, you're in profit now I guess.

As for Bitcoin, is $70k is just the max that you're thinking about? Majority of us here even think that it's possible for it to reach $100k this time and that could be the highest for this year and even more next year.

But that's true, we're here to make money and if you want to dump your Bitcoin at $70k then you should have sold it when it was able to reached back the former ATH at $69k.

He who fight and run away lives to fight another learn how to accept defeat go home and rest and come back with a fresh breath not because you want Chase you loss but as what you use to do when it pleases you if not you are going to loss even more stay in control of yourself it is only a game take a break and feel refreshed. That is my concept of this thread.
You just can't be sure when a gambler comes back and tells you not to chase his losses but eventually, that's where it is going to go.

There's so much with these gamblers that are coming back and tells you that they're not chasing their losses because every reason has something behind it.

And if they come back fresh, it is for sure that one of the reasons they come back and that's to take back somehow their losses.
If we do speak up realistically on how gambling business is really that profitable then we can really say that they are really that this is just because gamblers are really that impulsive.
They do tend to chase up loses and they would tend to break even or getting back on what they have spend out or being simply trying out not only to chase those loses but also chase up on how to win.
This cycle never ends and it would never be, as long that gambling sites or casinos would really be that existing because of this matter. Chasing up loses and trying out break
even on which this is something an emotion that needs to be that stopped.

Play gambling for fun and never ever make yourself that too confident on winning up the game because gamblers would be always having the disadvantage in the end.
You would really be just needing on having that control at least on the time that you are really that dealing up with things specially with gamblnig.
I like that when we always tell people to gamble for fun only.

But we don't know on how many of them do gamble for fun only because the majority of us do gamble for the sake of money and no one will know if you'd been doing that.

It's hard to stop that gambler when you've been gambling for so long and you are still chasing your losses. It's better to give up that aim to recover and stop that chase.

Is their MMA fight won't continue? I remember that there was a challenge that they'd make a fight and people are counting on Elon for having that huge body.

But Mark was also into karate or some training as well that should count him as the better fighter. This fight should be brought on the ring so that people will be entertained with these billionaires and CEOs of their own companies.

We're done entertaining them and sending them money as we use their platforms, it should be them now that should give us entertainment.

Let's related that on this market. I agree that self discipline includes emotional control and as well as delayed gratification.

So, connecting that on this market. When you've been holding that bitcoin for so long and you don't want to sell because you believe that there's a way that the value of it will become bigger in the future, that's delayed gratification you've got there even though you want to buy a lot of things from the profit that you'll make from there.

In fact, with most of the wealthy people that I've heard being interviewed. They always talk about being disciplined and waking up early in the morning. A routine that makes them productive so as it results to being successful.

We are all for decentralization but if there's no one that manages and moderates the entire forum, it will be penetrated with various scams, unsolicited threads, etc and all of those illegal things that you can ever imagine.

We must have insurance. Danger can come anytime, this insurance can help us when we fall into a big problem. I think what we need the most is health insurance. We should definitely take this insurance. If your income is high then you must have insurance. This will save you from major problems.
Insurance is protection.

Protection to our assets, to the things and possessions that we've worked hard. And that's why if you love your family, you're going to get insurance and no matter how wealthy you are, if you think that it's worth it to have it, definitely you'll get one, two or more insurance policies.

Whilst for the poor and don't have that much wealth, this is the best protection that they can have. Many treats it as an investment and some people still get the wrong idea about insurances. We all will die someday and it's up to you on what legacy you'll leave your family.

For most people, they can't afford to buy any type of insurance, reason being, they can't even put food on their table. This is why it is understandable that some people are hesitant to get one because of financial constraints. Whereas, those few who can really afford just like the OP's story have their qualms to get insurance because they are too confident, they don't need one. Well, some people don't want to foresee worst possible scenarios that may come because they feel it won't happen to them.

Sometimes anyone can be like that.

You have no enthusiam over gambling because you seem to be tired or being affected by outside world matters. It's okay, we're all humans and we go through some certain process that losses our interest temporarily in gambling.

But the thing there is still you gamble and out of nowhere, that kind of bet makes you win. I guess that's the main strategy that everyone has to learn as the casino might feel you not wanting to win and they give you a win.  Tongue

695  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Or Investing which one is better to focus on right now? on: March 05, 2024, 08:30:59 PM
Holding, most of the time.

Especially when the surge is almost everywhere, you just have to pick what you have to pick on this market and you need to sit and tighten your belt before the market leaves you
I don't want to take chances in trading, if I want to add some of my balances because I have to take time checking it from time to time. I'll just use my money and simply gonna buy that in addition to my portfolio.
For me, I’ll say investing and hodling too. Although trading this time would still make you profitable, but if you want to maximize your returns, don’t just trade but accumulating more bitcoin through DCA will give you the biggest opportunity to be massively profitable when bull run comes. Invest while the price has not reached its peak yet, because once an all time high will be achieved, it would be the perfect time to sell already, not the best time to invest.
It's still profitable to trade but if you compare the efforts that you commit with trading and holding, it's obviously more profitable and effortless with investing and holding.

Holding, most of the time.

the best option is to hold back. However, holding is almost the same as investing. Meanwhile, trading can be said to be about seeking profits in a short period of time.
Personally, I also tend to hold rather than trade whenever I make a profit. I prefer to target profits in the long term. It's just that holding or investing will only be better if we choose popular coins, especially bitcoin or popular altcoins.
Holding is actually investing.

On these times when the market is on a bull run, every trader is profitable I guess and whatever the season is they make money. While for investors, we're all seasonal and we prepare for these bull runs during the bear markets. That's the difference that we do, we save for the rainy days.
696  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Market Correction on: March 05, 2024, 08:04:17 PM
If you panic, you lose.

But if you stay calm and you have it planned and don't have to be hysterical, you're in good hands. You know the diamond hands are for real on this situation of the market.
Right but most of people's carried losses only to panic sell if when see market is going down and can't control their mind but also it's true that very hard to stay calm to keep holding a coin for long time, is someone had extra money who can keep it invest in long term but not possible to everyone.
Just like now, there's a flash crash. People again showed their true nature as if the market didn't came from $50kish level for Bitcoin and now from ATH of $69k, down to $61k. Still in a panic? don't be!

While the thread was made on December 2023 where there have been some corrections too, this is still applicable today as there are some corrections happening too.

The corrections we have seen in recent days are way lower than the pumps that we are witnessing in the market. Bitcoin has already touched $69k which wasn't expected at all despite some people predicting that it will hit a new all-time high before the halving but we were not expecting that to happen this soon. We are still a month or more away from the halving event, what else can we expect from the market? $70k?
Such corrections shouldn't make anyone panic because the price of Bitcoin dropping $2k from its value is then gaining more than $5k which should make people gain more confidence.
The correction has came and that's a normal thing and expected moment to come. So that's like a correction of $7k-$8k after hitting the peak again.

They are one of the best and has got a lot of rings and props to them with that. But the time isn't going in the past, we're moving on and there are new champions coming in that are showing that they're stronger.

Like the Nuggets.

But I know that if some massage on their roster, I think that they'd be able to get that momentum again like what they used to have before.
I would also include the Boston Celtics along with the Nuggets...
In recent years Boston  had an absurd evolution, I'm impressed how Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and other players have evolved (I would even include
Marcus Smart on this list, but he left the Celtics). Basically, these and other players were polished diamonds and are currently ready to be NBA champions.
Yeah, no doubt with the Celtics.

They're always included in the playoffs and also semis. Can be said that one of the strongest teams and most consistent at all together with the Miami heat.

Talking about the Warriors, I believe that the team needs to make a big change for them to be NBA champions again, I believe that the level of Thompson and Green has dropped drastically, and Curry alone cannot carry the team on his back.
They're older this time and they're no longer the same as before and that's why there's a need to revamp their roster.

Update:

I got the job and It's a lot better than my last one! I'm going to have to learn a lot but my coworkers are great and they're very willing to show me the ropes.

Finding a good job took a long time, and I had to be willing to drive far but I got really lucky with this one. After a few months I'll have a regular schedule with 5 consecutive 8 hour days, overtime if I sign up for it but generally no need to stay past quitting time or come in early.

Coming from a very long time in a job with random scheduling and my days off not being consecutive this is huge for me. And the pay is decent too!


Congratulations!

That seems to be a dream job for everybody and hopefully that work-life balance will be there based on how you have told the descriptions.

The reason I didn't update for so long is because the process is really long to get in!
That's okay, there's more to life outside the forum and good luck with your new job.  Smiley

There really are times that teams and players don't perform as what we're expected. I still remember those years when GSW after being the champs, they've became slumps during the next years.
Apparently the Warriors dynasty isn't forever...
I'm amazed by GSW performance in the game against the Celtics yesterday, and also by the Warriors decline year after year, a few seasons ago they were the most feared team in the NBA and Today, the Warriors are a team that is fighting to get a seed in the playoffs in the league...
