Maybe I'll quit for some time period, but the tempt to gamble remains. Important thing I'll never expose it to anyone that I've won big, because we don't know at which moment mind changes. Maybe if I want to gamble, then sure I'll do it as I've got good backing. I don't know whether I'll win it or end up everything. If I've revealed the big winning, surely the minds of my close ones won't accept if I end up losing everything.

I'll quit based on the situation, because if I don't have debts and other financial needs I'll continue to gamble. If I were with commitments and need of money to have peaceful living, surely I'll quit gambling and lead life happier with the winning.

Whether you rent or buy the property needs to be prioritised based on one's plan. If you've settled everything in the location (business/job) and you've got good finance to support buying a property, then it is good to go for buying.

When you're no more in a position to stay on particular location and wants relocation due to business or for your professional needs, then the right choice is to rent. If you've got good sum of money after your regular needs and support buying a property then go for it. This is a big investment and could create income through renting the property with which the loan can be repaid.
703  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC > 1M ? on: June 13, 2023, 10:57:20 PM
Bitcoin to 1 Million is it really possible?

I think it depends on inflation rates. Now there is a high risk of fiat inflation, so 1 btc for $1M is possible, but its more probable not from the "BTC price rise" point of view, but from "inflation" point of view. The ability of cryptoassets to remain valuable in case of fiats inflation is questionable. The mechanisms (and outcome) of changes in values of cryptoassets in case of intense fiat value fluctuations is one of the main riddles in modern, highly digitalised economy.
The market is not much dependent over the traditional market. This means there is inflation which will keep the bitcoin at a better price, but the same doesn't drive bitcoin towards a new ath or 1m+ in price. Whether the financial situation is good or bad around is not at all an issue, the market of bitcoin is all about the demand to the supply. How this gets varied will reflect on the price of bitcoin.
704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: $90,000 all in bet on: June 12, 2023, 11:40:55 PM
In other words this post can inspire others to bet continuously on sports betting to get big returns like Op.
Big return? Eventually he even lost his initial $4000.

It seems $90,000 is an amount of money for op who is okay to lose it so he did not care even when he could withdraw any amount from it. May be a $50,000 or $80,000 and keep the rest to continue the entertainment. $10,000 is still a lot of money considering his deposit of $4,000.

But there is the saying, house always wins. House indeed won and became $4,000 richer to pay their bills and staffs and to make their balance sheet better.

We are looking at a high-roller bettor who is not comfortable with just doubling his bet, he is a winner take all player he is a sports bettor and he seems to be good at it, I don't see him beating the house he should have a more realistic approach to gambling and stop doing all out.

I don't how rich he is but if he keeps doing this for months he will lose a lot of money, and this will have an impact on his finances, my advice is to not imitate OP he is capable so he can keep up.

for one, if you are a sports bettor, you should not copy someone else's strategy as you have other things to consider first. your bankroll, and your knowledge about the sports itself.
if you will follow others, definitely, you will end up broke and no one will save you from your situation but yourself. you can only bet continuously if you have your bankroll continuously flowing and you know the sports at least.
With Casinos we shouldn't copy strategies which won't work. With sports betting the win is completely upon the knowledge the person have got relative to the game along with the luck factor. With sports betting we can follow the strategies, but the amount spent should be much connected to the affordability of us and not based on the gambler who's strategy is copied.
705  Economy / Economics / Re: Landed properties is the best investment on: June 12, 2023, 11:10:46 PM
Land value never depreciates. It also depends upon the location and the surroundings, based on which will be the market. Whatever the investment, it'll give return. All that required is the patience, which we can never expect with our people. Everyone want to invest today and need their investment to be doubled by the very next day. Maybe there are few lucky ones who were able to experience similar things, and for the same it isn't mandatory that we could also have the same luck.
706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: June 12, 2023, 08:12:15 PM

India is strong team and they brought some new talent in the cricket. Shubman gill and sourya Kumar Yadav are known best for ODI and twenty format. Siraj is also best bowlers have agood technique with ball. India team is favourite for this year Asia cup. Pakistan also has good batsmen and bowlers but i think Pakistan are more special in bowling rather then batting. if they improved their batting then i think Pakistan will be dangerous team.
The Asia cup will tell now how will suryakumar yadav and shubman gill will perform,  they are totally judged on basis of their performance in ipl but sometimes things turn out to be different in other grounds and formats .
Those two have played almost same number of ODI matches. Shubman Gill have got better batting average of 60+ runs against that of Suryakumar Yadav's 24 runs. We can't be early judgemental, everyone should be given sufficient opportunities. Only then it is possible to watch the real ability of the players. Shubman Gill is very young and he have got years to build his career better. Suryakumar Yadav is already 32 and now its time to do the best for the team and get slotted in every important tournaments.
707  Economy / Speculation / Re: Take advantage of the price fall. on: June 12, 2023, 07:50:24 PM
Every form of investment have got risk in it. With bitcoin it is high because of the volatility. When a person gets into bitcoin investment for the first time he/she'll find it strange, because the price drops will happen in larger margin. Some out of panic just end up their involvement with bitcoin. Whenever price fall happens, automatically there'll be Whales who take advantage and buy more. When it comes to cryptomarket we should have the patience, if not we cannot make our portfolio strong. When price fall takes place we should have the mind to take the short term profit, if not we should be long term focused.
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Still Gamble? on: June 12, 2023, 07:04:20 PM
Who doesn't have the desire to be rich in the short term without much efforts. We will see someone experiencing it, and the same makes us give a try. What the other person have experienced is out of his luck, but we expect the same to happen with us is simply not fair. This is the prime reason for which people get into gambling. The percentage of people getting into gambling for fun and entertainment is very small. In the history itself gambling is termed to be something bad and for that reason people want this to be hidden from others. Once a person have entered gambling it is really hard to make an exit, because the loss will keep him chasing it and the win will make him greedy.
709  Economy / Economics / Re: Keeping money and keeping bitcoins? are they similar? on: June 12, 2023, 06:47:24 PM
The objective of saving itself differ between people. The main purpose for which savings is preferred is to be financial strong during emergencies, to overcome unexpected job loss or to meet unexpected needs, have debt free life, enjoy retirement.

When one saves in terms of fiat and when one save in terms of bitcoin, both way of savings is for the betterment of life. With this in mind it is always good to prioritise savings and further get into investment with fiat/cryptocurrency depending on the user. When we hold bitcoin the volatility will give the added advantage and better profit whereas savings will give mere interest. With bitcoin there is risk, but long term focus will always successful. With savings at times the user gets notified with bankruptcy. Angry
710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin must surpass gold on: June 11, 2023, 11:59:33 PM
People always expect the growth to be high over the other. This js the major reason why people need price comparison as well a growth in value against each other. Gold have got varied features and it is unfair to have a comparison between gold and bitcoin. The growth of the two have got a very big difference. With gold it is all about the history and the rare availability. With bitcoin it is all about the demand to the supply. Both were masters in their own, nothing needs to be overcome.
711  Economy / Economics / Re: What to do with all guy who loss money to stock market on: June 11, 2023, 01:18:42 AM
Everything runs in a cyclic movement, which is true. We don't know the right time interval for the same to happen. This means there is risk with each and every form of investment, whether it is stock market, cryptocurrency or other schemes.

In the opening post we were able to see the term fast as a prefix to each and every achievement from a person. This increase the risk even more higher and there are high chances of unknown people getting into traps and losing hard earned money.

In each and every form of investment there is need of patience with which life and the investment can be made more enjoyable than just losing. Just think of a situation a person have borrowed money for interest and invested into something with the expectation of return within specific timeline. What happens if the person wasn't able to get back what he expected.
712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: European Sex Championship 😳, Will you Bet? on: June 10, 2023, 11:29:41 PM
LOL sex as a sport what would be next, various positions or oral would also be considered as a sport?
I don't really support this and hope that this is just a joke.
If they would consider this as a sport then watching pornography would only be considered as watching sports this idea really makes me laugh.
Haha this is really funny and I don't know how this is going to be like. I would love to see what kind of position that would want to indulge in that will make a team to become the winners. This would be very interesting but it can pose a risk to children and adolescents that would snick to watch this kind of competition. This is could also be a big blow to the society at large and this might also make children to see sex as something that should not be valued. In our society today, sex is no more a value to a gender, people see is with a random view.

I guess the ones with the big blow will lose the championship. LOL.
I don't think children will be able to see this because it won't be shown on TV obviously.
Online streaming would be a ideal choice to see such kind of things but I don't think this kind of championship will take place ever.
For me this is a big mistake it's should not be taken into the world of the internet an in sports because the first thing is Sex is not a sports then why is this happening, why another country take pick this kind of sports.  And also once sex is became a sports to other country then for sure many children can see. And the population will arise because of the minors engage with this..
Maybe what you've mentioned could happen, but for gods sake this hasn't been added to the sports category. Also the location where this has been taking place isn't disclosed. So, this something just a controversy that is been circulated to read the mind of people. Everything is business, and based on the people's view this can further turn to be successful or stay away. Every country won't be lineant towards such act, so there is nothing to worry about the minors .
713  Economy / Economics / Re: Getting an MBA before starting a company or directly starting a company? on: June 10, 2023, 11:13:24 PM
An MBA can assist create the leadership abilities required to succeed in these areas for those who plan to work in a managerial role, with financial institutions, or with entrepreneurship, but company or personal success does not always correspond to having achieved excellence in academics or holding an MBA. Some millionaires and outstanding tycoons never completed higher school, let alone an MBA.
MBA will give the theoretical learning about the managerial role. Only through experience he/she will make a better suited to the position. As said to have a standard development to the business or company the MBA adds value, if not we need to hire someone for the position and make things happen under their control. The educated strategies work based on the previous results where the experience based system function on assumptions.
714  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The role of Bitcoin in eliminating unemployment in our country on: June 10, 2023, 10:57:20 PM
Bitcoin have got nothing to do with unemployment. Already there is a miscommunication about bitcoin that it is a quick rich scheme. People without proper understanding get into the market and end up losing. Same as that something not related to bitcoin shouldn't be spread around. Through bitcoin it is possible to earn, but the same shouldn't be connected with reduction in unemployment.

Maybe someday people who look for job could land into bitcoin leaving all his professional learning which isn't a good idea. So, when it comes to bitcoin, things need to be analysed well than just making decisions based on the overview.
715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stop gambling (sports betting, casino e.t.c)? on: June 10, 2023, 10:46:58 PM
Gambling brings so much joy especially when you're on the winning side, when things are all in your favor it just seems like you should never stop. But when it gets bad, you look for a way to pour out your anger, either on someone or on something.
When someone is addicted to gambling I feel it's worst than one who's addicted to drugs.

So much has been said about betting companies regarding how they should be responsible in helping those who are addicted to gambling, although is really hard to do so on there own path because gamblers can't be monitored.
I don't know if booking an appointment with a therapist would help or is something you as a gambler who wants out should do on your own.

The question is if you're a gambler or have someone who is, what's the best way to help out. And what's your story on escaping that addiction (gambling)...

How do you fight this battle?
You should see gamble as fun so that you don't end up chasing your loss due to greed and emotions,all these when done as a gambler will lead to addiction. Only gamble with money that you can afford to lose. Self-control is the only thing a gambler needs to discipline himself. You can go for a break for maybe 6months to 1ur,then come back to it again.
Even the person who consider gambling as fun will chase the loss when he experience continuous loss against wins. As in the post, chasing the loss or trying to recover the loss and stop gambling doesn't gonna help people with safe gambling. Right choice is to take break for long term, if not atleast taking interval between bets too could help in having safe gambling. Because, most of the time people loss out of losing the emotional control, when we take interval between bets we'll have the time to realise and take the better decision.
716  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: June 10, 2023, 09:58:36 PM
Good to see Kohli and Rahane building a partnership, but I don't think that will do the trick. They don't have any X-factor players like Pant lower down the order who could rescue the team even if those two got out quickly.

The final day is basically an ODI for both teams with Australia having the edge. Exciting stuff!

Although Kohli did not play well in the first innings, Virat Kohli is playing very well in the second innings. And I would say that the performance of the first session tomorrow will depend on the outcome of this match. If Kohli and Rahane play well in the first session tomorrow, India will control the match. India needs 280 runs to win. 280 will not be a tough task for India tomorrow if the partnership between Rahane and Kohli continues. And if Rahane and Kohli can take wickets at the beginning of the day then Australia will win easily.
I am really not going to be critic today. I just hope Virat Kohli and Jinks play two sessions atleast tomorrow. Honestly pacers won't really have a lot to do tomorrow as after ball gets old. But Llyon can be a Trump Card as there are too much cracks on the pitch right now. 280 runs with 7 wickets in hand is anyways a big thing to chase on the last day of any test.
That's a big number to be reached, however there is hope and there is change in the people's opinion about the match.In between the winning probability of India went down to 5% and now this have reached 18% which is a big change. Everyone looking for some great innings from Kohli and Rahane. If the partnership works we can expect India to make history. As said it is in the hands of Lyon who could be the game changer anytime as the pitch favours spin in the last day.
717  Economy / Economics / Re: The impact of artificial intelligence, chat GPT on the crypto market. on: June 09, 2023, 09:33:39 PM
Technological developments are indeed directed at replacing human labor, it is inconceivable that currently heavy work, for example lifting goods weighing more than 1 ton, must be carried out by humans, of course it will not be effective, the same as the ChatGPT development plan, which of course can provide efficiency in service to consumers.
We must remember that this is just the beginning, in another decade ChatGPT or its successors will be way better than they are right now and will replace even more human jobs while generating only a fraction of those jobs, so it would not surprise me if soon enough we saw the economies of the world suffering greatly, as they cannot find a away to square that circle and tens of millions of people lose their jobs around the world as they fail to get another one.
We are going to see more if this in the future that is why we should not limit the capacity of chatgpt now that is is still in the development stage. Thie tool is going to be us to get things done since it is incorporated with information that would help us learn very fast and get answers to questions and fast as possible. Artificial intelligence is going to be a useful tools for us whether now or in the future with enough information to get things started without using search engines that might not give us accurate information about what we really need.
ChatGPT is developed as a tool that ease out the search of information and help in assistance in a much faster and accurate manner. This is the core for which ChatGPT is developed, but the reality will differ beyond certain point. In simple, increasing usage will surely cut jobs to some extent. As in the previous post, we'll be able to much more advanced tools into usage in the future. However everything gets developed to support the human work, but the financial struggle lets people take advantage over these innovations and cut jobs.

After this defeat of UAE against west indies will shift the series from 2-0 to whitewash, current performance of UAE is not enough to servive in Cricket world they should need a lot of improvement because they can't even score above 200 in ODI format and just lose most of his wicket in early stage,
Previous two matches performance was similar disappointed results hope they will learn after participating in his own league and some international event appearance,
Currently west indies performance show how they love power hitting, still they have dozen of over left but they chased down the small target before 30th over...
If you thought UAE was a strong enough team to face a team like West Indies, then you are mistaken. If they play against another associate country then you can expect them to score above 200 runs and win matches but not against full member teams.

West Indies is also having a fairly young team and yet UAE is not able to compete against them which shows their level.
The experience both the teams hold is completely different. UAE were 142/3 and finally it was 184 runs. The scoring rate is good, but they weren't good at standing wickets. West Indies didn't reach the target easily, it too struggled. If the target were something around 250 runs surely UAE might've won the match, because chasing 184 runs West Indies have lost 6 wickets.
719  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: June 09, 2023, 12:57:34 PM
finally an excellent session for India. First 100-run partnership for India and a very good one.

Wondering what would be our scorecard if this duo manages to bat all day. That would be something and it requires a lot of luck and courage. Ahh, why Rahane and Lord are giving hope to Indian fans? Undecided  lol

Not looking good! I was expecting a century from Rahane. He did his job, while the top order failed. How long Thakur and Yadav will be able to stay is a big question now. India need to stay till the end of day 3 and need a score of more than 300 if they want to draw this match.
The only hope now is Shardul Thakur, if he stays more on the strike side and the relatively weak batting that keeps them more on the non-strike side, India's collection will cross roughly 300 plus. In this case Shardul Thakur is the second highest run scorer in the first innings and he just completed his half century. In any case, Shardul Thakur's outstanding authority in this crisis is worth remembering. Welcome to him for outstanding leadership.
The score have reached 293/8, somehow 300+ runs will be reached. It is really bad that India's top order didn't perform well. The lower order is far better and had contributed good to the team score. Shardul Thakur is really good at his performance, and none could've expected this from him. For Australia it is the top order that performed, with Indian team the lower order is doing well. Mohammed Shami is giving the best support. If this partnership continues for the day, then the chances of India to draw the match will increase. However such an chance is really narrow against the mighty bowlers of Australia who are in good form.
720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: June 09, 2023, 06:27:27 AM
What a disaster! Again the top order and the middle order batting collapsed. Australia domination continues on the second day as well. I have as of now zero hopes from Indian batters. Travis Head by the way has recorded his name in the history books. He became the first batter to score a century in World Test Championship followed by Smith. The third day would be crucial as we will be able to know where this match is headed. At the moment the road looks very bumpy and steep for India.

On the first day, we saw the dominance of Australia's batsmen. And on the second day too we saw the dominance of Australian bowlers. The IPL ended a few days ago. I thought Indian batsmen can play with responsibility in this match. Kohli has played very well in IPL. But no top-order batsman can collect more than 15 runs. Such poor batting was not expected from India's experienced top-order players. The Indian team is still behind by 318 runs. If Rahane doesn't play big innings I would say India will definitely lose this match.
The dominance of Australia continues. Even today the same will continue, India have already lost the top order. We can't expect IPL to make a big impact on the test match. Indian batsmen weren't able to perform, atleast they should've lost the wickets after scoring same as playing a T20 match. If so, the score might've reached atleast 250 runs. Mohammed Siraj have recorded his 50th wicket in test Matches and holds a five wicket haul against Australia.
