701  Economy / Economics / Re: What US can do with its dept? Genuine question. on: October 08, 2023, 01:00:53 PM
We all know that US borrowing heavily. There are a lot of information on US debt on the Internet. Just to make it short, I will ask few questions:

What do you think, how this situation will be resolved? What did happen to any other nations who had huge dept in history? Is there any ways offered by economists to resolve the situation?
Print more money and that's what America does. They will do anything even if the impact puts other countries on the verge of collapse. No situation can be resolved as long as the Dollar is still wind, and nothing can support it. Therefore, other countries are starting to appear bored with the current dollar system, and this has also become one of the grounds for the emergence of several other alternatives. The BRICS are trying to kick their dollar addiction while still paying their debt to the US. We also need to do that by continuing to preach that Bitcoin is the only asset source capable of fighting reverse inflation. This will also motivate Bitcoin-friendly countries to have future financial options.

Greed is the beginning of problems in any activity they undertake, especially in gambling which is based on luck alone. You want to keep winning but casinos are made for you to lose, or in other words, casinos make the percentage of wins much smaller than losses, so from this alone it is clear, and I would ask what is the more reasonable reason that has made you greedy?
All gamblers know the gambling scheme and the ratio of profits is lower compared to losses, but if you ask why gamblers are greedy in gambling, I think there are several factors that make gamblers very greedy in gambling depending on the effect that influences them to bet higher.

- Emotional, the gambler's dissatisfaction with losses can encourage gamblers to behave greedily, they will place high bets in the hope of returning capital in the next win, precisely the emotional cause will lose everything because they bet without any consideration and lose control

- passive income in gambling, many gamblers think that gambling can earn passive income because they have the opportunity to achieve low profit targets, this gambling addiction will be difficult to overcome because they are active gamblers who risk anything to be able to gamble, they tend not to set clear limits on the use of funds.

- the influence of the gambling environment, if we live in an environment that has been affected by gambling it can trigger anyone to gamble, the majority of the population is already addicted to gambling and they may not fully comply with gambling regulations, the worst effect on regeneration is that they have been exposed to gambling since they were children.

Well this seems more plausible, you've made a statement about some of the reasons why gamblers are greedy, this is very clear and there may be other points besides the ones you mentioned. Emotions have a very important role in how the final outcome, although yes it is difficult to predict and sometimes it can be what you expect but usually it always ends up with a worse result than you imagined. And well emotions are also very likely to encourage someone to behave greedily, very clearly it depends on their condition there, and in my opinion the position of winning or losing it absolutely cannot rule out the possibility that they will be greedy, not infrequently even though they are already in their condition they will continue to continue and in the hope that they will be able to get a bigger win, especially if they lose and will definitely be emotional. The point is that those who are addicted will usually never feel satisfied with the results they get and they will continue to gamble and well finally all their money is gone again, of course they lose control there so regret will arrive.

I don't think it's wrong if they make gambling as a passive incom because indeed if they win they will get money, but I wouldn't say that this is entirely true, of course it's nothing but because the impact is very large and there is also no guarantee that you will continue to win there. So don't take it too seriously, you can't fully make it as a passive incom because there is no guarantee of consistency there. That's right buddy, the environment will also really be very influential, for those who are in an active environment in gambling then I'm sure even though they have implemented self-control maybe in the end they will be tempted because they see their friends who are gambling and winning, it will greatly disturb the self-control they have made. The problem is that the impact of gambling is very negative, there are so many temptations that come and I hope you and they must continue to be careful,
don't let your guard down and don't be careless and lastly don't be easily tempted.

The host Dortmund finally won the match against each other with a score of 4-2 over their opponents Union Berlin. Actually, I was quite surprised that Union Berlin had turned things around after conceding first and thought that this time Dortmund would lose at home. But it seems that after the second half started there were two quick goals from Schlotterbeck and Julian Brandt which managed to turn things around again and made them more confident in winning this match. As the final winning goal, Ryerson did his job well which made Dortmund's victory safer.

This result raised the morale of the Dortmund players and they rose to second place temporarily, while Union Berlin had to accept the reality of being stuck at the bottom of the table again.

Yes that's right the first half was very surprising, as you said Union Berlin managed to turn the original 1 - 0 into 2 - 1 and Union Berlin took the lead until the end of the first half. Honestly, I'm sure people, especially Dortmund fans, would not have thought that their proud club would lose at home. Even though if we look at the position in the standings it is very far, where Dortmund are in the top five of the standings while Union Berlin are far below them.

The first half ended with the advantage in the Union Berlin camp and well finally the beginning of the second half Dortmund could add to their goals through N. Schlotterbeck which was also followed by goals from J. Brandt and J. Ryerson, indirectly this could already make Dortmund fans feel calm, because if they lost honestly I couldn't imagine if they had to lose at home against a team that was even far below them in terms of performance and it was clear that in the last five matches Union Berlin did not win at all. So far I see Dortmund's performance is quite consistent, they are able to crawl up which is finally now in second place in the standings behind VfB.

The outcome of the majority of casino games is mostly controlled by luck rather than ability. Examples that are often used include craps, roulette, and slot machines. Players wager on numerous outcomes in these games, and the casino has an inherent advantage that ensures they will profit in the long term.
Casino gaming is a popular source of entertainment. Instead of looking at it as a means of making money, players should approach it with the intention of having fun.

    -   I think every gambler in the crypto gambling industry knows that. But as much as all gamblers can do to just enjoy it as entertainment, knowing that it's impossible to happen, Because there are and still are casino players who want it to become a habit and lead to an addiction to it.

Because there are many gamblers who, when they get greedy, will definitely look for gambling in the casino, whether it's online or not, just gambling is fine with them. So when we feel like this, we should have discipline in ourselves and control ourselves in terms of playing in the casino.

Whoever they are, whether crypto gamblers or casinos as in general or even sports betting which does require a little analysis and skill still everything must be in accordance with the true concept of gambling, which is that this is just a place to have fun, nothing more than that and don't let you or them overestimate this gambling, because of course maybe with the risks that exist you can also realize that the impact of addiction is very significant. You say there is a chance even big there? yes for that I understand there is a chance but I say it is only a chance to win occasionally and that means not every time you gamble you will be able to win, this is a little different and I hope they do not misunderstand what is meant by chance, especially with the risk of a very high percentage there.

Greed is the beginning of problems in any activity they undertake, especially in gambling which is based on luck alone. You want to keep winning but casinos are made for you to lose, or in other words, casinos make the percentage of wins much smaller than losses, so from this alone it is clear, and I would ask what is the more reasonable reason that has made you greedy?
705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons you should not gamble on too many things at once. on: October 07, 2023, 01:20:51 PM
If you have the habit of playing and gambling on different sports and game, I think it is not good because of some few reasons like;
YOU WILL SPEND MORE MONEY ON GAMBLING.
YOU CAN BECOME MORE EASILY ADDICTED THAN A GAMBLER WHO PLAYS ONLY ONE GAME. 
YOUR CHANCES OF LOOSING WILL INCREASE, BUT YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING MAY NOT INCREASE.
YOU WILL SPEND MORE TIME GAMBLING.
Which other reason?


Moderation is the key against gambling addiction. When you kept on winning, you’ll likely get addicted to bet more money into it. Always set a strict budget limit that you can afford to lose and do not go beyond that.

I admit that I’ve been like that before mostly in sports betting, especially parley mode. In the end, I almost lost all of it as I was kinda greedy that time.

It is already given in the world of gambling that your chances of losing are far greater than winning. You must really accept and acknowledge this one as well as the risks you are taking. Only bet an amount that you can afford to lose and not going all-in.

I absolutely agree with the statement that moderation is one of the methods that can be taken to avoid addiction, they must really be able to see what actions they should take to minimize the amount of loss and not end up with addiction. Of course when they get more than one win for example then it is very likely that greed will appear, basically those who are already addicted will never feel enough with the results they have got, they always assume that "there are bigger chances so I have to increase the amount of bets", are you really sure and what convinces you? You are too sure of the obvious expectations - obviously it's just your feelings. it is real greed and they will not stop until maybe all the money they have won back is used up at the same time.

Almost everyone (gamblers) will say statements like this according to what they have experienced, like you and I have also experienced it. Parlay is very profitable, but that's also if you win, if you lose, it's all gone and you're really unlucky at that time. Obviously, the percentage of wins is much lower than losses, that means you can only get one win at the expense of dozens of defeats, just try to calculate it must be still greater the amount of your losses. That's all.
706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 06, 2023, 06:39:28 PM
I don't consider Ten Hag a failure this season, but of course some people who are angry at Manchester United's bad results will still consider Ten Hag a failure. I agree that Ten Hag failed to start this 2023-2024 season with a good and consistent start, but all of them have to admit that player injuries have had a big impact on the game.

I tend to hope Ten Hag isn't sacked so soon, meaning he'll have to get more support for a longer stay at Manchester United. Ten Hag has the ability to make Manchester United compete at the top, but whether he is successful or not really depends on the performance of the players throughout the season.
Yes, I agree with you that Erik Ten Hag should at least be retained at Manchester United because I believe this experienced coach is able to improve the quality of his players at the end of the season with better achievements and for me Manchester United's current bad streak is not the end of everything because I remember In the previous season, Erik Ten Hag provided services for Manchester United with extraordinary improvements and I am also sure that Ten Hag is able to improve Manchester United's bad situation and we will see a very surprising increase in performance in the next few matches.

This is indeed a very painful season for Manchester United, various problems have come and gone, conflicts with players and also followed by the number of injured players of course make Ten Hag dizzy, moreover the Transfer Exchange has been closed so there is no other choice but to utilize existing players. I also don't think that Ten Hag should be fired, because obviously even if he is fired it will not necessarily fully solve the problems that are happening, Ten Hag knows more about the details of the problems that are happening at this club and with that I think only consideration from him can produce a better solution to restore the club's performance.

For significant changes this season I think the chances are very small for Manchester United because obviously this is a very difficult task for Ten Hag, I am sure that by keeping Ten Hag the situation will improve again but not this soon, but maybe in the coming season, it is clear if we look at their position now, they are far behind and almost at the bottom of the standings in the competition, meaning that this problem is very heavy and so is the solution that must be found very difficult. But well nothing is impossible, hopefully in the next match they can perform better.
707  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Lady Cried After Losing to Sports Bet. Gambling is Not Your Mate. on: October 06, 2023, 05:41:11 PM

This is the first time I am seeing a lady playing gamble in the public domain. Though I have been hearing but not seen. Well she should take heart, the matter how she cried the money will not come back again. What do you say about the Lady? Did she do well in the public? As I said, gambling is not your mate, take precautions.

Obviously, the girl is not used to playing and he has no control she may have a good run, and because of her greediness he best everything she has and lose everything that is the most likely scenario I can think of.

 I have a lot of friends who almost lose their minds because they have a wrong conception about gambling, they are not there to enjoy and have fun, their mindset is how to beat the house which is impossible, and losing everything is the result that is why she is so disappointed with what happened to her, if she got good support from her love ones she will overcome this.

Maybe the girl is one of the few gamblers who just came, in the sense that they are still new to gambling so maybe they don't know what actions to take to minimize losses which in the end experienced a deep slump with a very large amount of loss, and also besides that I would not fully say that those who do things like this are always them as novices, Because in fact even though they have been gambling for a long time does not mean they can always control themselves when gambling, and of course as you say greed is very likely to occur and will not see who the person is, even though at first winning but it's not over yet, after greed controls you then the final story will be different, that is, what initially won will lose and even run out of everything they have.

That's just a very silly and funny action that your friend has done, how can you beat the house that is clearly the gambling system set by the house itself, it doesn't make sense with that kind of mindset. It will only bring you to a deeper downturn, especially the number of large losses, instead of wanting to beat the house, you yourself are drained by the casino itself. So be wiser and more realistic in looking at gambling if you want to survive.
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: October 06, 2023, 04:51:50 PM
~snip~
That's what often happens, most of them only see from one side just like you said "there is an opportunity to multiply finances", that's what always haunts their mindset and is also driven by very strong beliefs. Just because there is an opportunity that is not even guaranteed at all, they are so sure and continue to try it even though they have repeatedly found that defeat always dominates. And besides that I see the average victims are those who have poor finances, or that means from the middle to lower class, about honest hope I think it's natural because gambling can give you victory. But what we have to pay attention to is that the percentage of wins is much lower than losses, that means you will lose a lot more than win, that's a fact and I think all gamblers have to admit this statement. Instead of getting a win but what happens is even worse because of the many defeats.

It is quite strange to see the number of people who have such beliefs, as you said they are willing to allocate even a small amount of money just to gamble and have very high hopes that they will be able to bring home the winnings to buy their daily needs, but what happens? Well LOSE again. If you really want real money that means you also have to look for a real job that is really guaranteed results, not instead begging the casino to give victory, for casinos this business is not a place to hand out money for nothing, that's the logic.
That's because they see those opportunities as a way to win and to make money from gambling. Even though this opportunity does not guarantee that they can win, they should realize that if they continue to gamble, they must be able to accept the risk of losing. And if they don't have good finances, they don't need to try gambling even though the opportunities are there and there are already some people who can win from gambling. People's fate will be different, especially if it is gambling. There are people who cannot win no matter how many times they try, but there are people who only gamble a few times and can win some money. It depends on each person's luck and will be different for everyone. This is a fact, so they must realize that gambling is not a way to earn money but rather gambling is entertainment.

If they have often seen several people win from gambling, of course, it is not strange if they also want to try their luck one day. They will try to gamble for a while to see the results. If they win, it is a sign to tempt them, so they keep gambling, and of course, if they don't have strong self-control, they will get deeper into gambling where the opportunity to win will be lost, replaced by more losses.

Yes, the problem is that "they misinterpret what the opportunity means", especially in gambling. They are too sure of the opportunities that are actually a trap for them even though there is no guarantee that they can trust anything, in fact they are only too sure of the instincts and feelings that are in their own minds, even though it may only be limited to their feelings. Therefore, it is clear that something that they consider as an opportunity has never succeeded despite how many times they have tried it but the final result is always a dominating defeat. It should be like that, brands especially those whose finances are not good need to think with their logic that there is no certain victory, let alone consistent it is impossible in gambling. Yes, most of those who come and end up trapped in addiction because initially they see other people's wins which they think are big, it's true that everyone has different fate and luck, maybe they only see when other people are lucky and don't know how many defeats have been suffered by the people they see. As you said, no matter how much they try, if they are unlucky, they will lose, and on the contrary, those who just came can immediately get a victory without sacrifice.

So it is clear that everyone has their own luck and absolutely no one knows when that time will come, so don't chase too much, anyway if you are lucky you will be able to get the victory even with just one try. In my opinion so the point is not to be tempted by anything that is there including the victory of others, just ignore it because as discussed earlier everyone's luck is different, especially in terms of time, so it will only be useless and a waste of money if you continue to pursue it.
709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you gamble till old age or not on: October 06, 2023, 04:06:49 PM
Well if you have already gone through it I hope you make it a very valuable lesson in your life, and from now on you can start with a better step, I mean walking with the purpose that should be lived, forget all your bad past and never think about trying it again. Of course it's better to focus on making a living from a place or job that makes more sense and guarantees you to get money for sure than you continue to depend on gambling which is clearly only limited to luck and of course there is no certainty in terms of earning.

To be honest, there is actually no prohibition at all for gambling if indeed they have full responsibility for everything that can happen, especially the number of defeats. If you can now control it, it's a good thing because only yourself can help you, other people won't care about your problems there. Agreed, limiting the budget is a very good idea to minimize your losses and besides that you should also limit the time to gamble, because obviously if you still allocate a lot of time there then it is very likely that you will be hooked again. It's just a matter of you getting your hopes up in the wrong place.
It's true, the people around me won't care about the problems I'm experiencing, everyone will stay away, the lessons of this broken life will become a solid foundation for me not wanting this to happen again. For example, if you have the ambition to gamble, you must have a static strategy, don't just be too passionate just because you are chasing victory. if you can't control control over and over again destruction is getting closer like me

As I said above and you have repeated here that whatever condition you are in in gambling honestly other people will not care too much about you, except maybe your closest family who will be a little encouraging to get back up, there are only some friends who are still close to you, some of them will stay away because it is very likely that they are afraid of being affected like you feel there. This is a very valuable life experience that should indeed be made into lessons, take lessons and change everything into something better, that's all we can do for a better start.

To be honest, there is no prohibition for anyone to gamble, therefore only you yourself can create various restrictions including self-control so that everything does not go out of control, which can really cause something unwanted to happen to you. If you have agreed with yourself with whatever risks that will occur there, then go ahead and do whatever you want, as long as you don't invite other people to come to your lost path, whether good or bad, only you will feel it. I'm sure all gamblers don't want to experience a large amount of defeat so therefore always set a healthy and realistic mindset, after all this is just a place to seek entertainment not income, don't let you get trapped.
Sometimes I remember feeling unfair with the bitter taste I experienced before, until now, sometimes my heart is not yet at peace with reality. I experienced a lot of wasted time and creative work in the past. Now try to be patient and rise again from zero even though it will take a lot of sacrifice.
Yes, I never invite people to gamble, mostly because of the environment and social media circles that make other people get carried away

It's okay buddy, regret is bound to come and it's always at the end, you've tasted all the bitterness in gambling and thank goodness now you're aware of the mistakes you've made in the past, regret is natural and instead of continuing to think about it with various assumptions that the reality you get is like unfair I think it's better to look forward because time will not be able to turn again.

So it's better to try to make peace with the situation and the reality that has happened, and then think about what positive things we will do next, and of course that can have a good impact on ourselves. You can start from zero and with a healthy mindset and also not overdo it, it's never too late for a better change. Yes, it's better that way, gambling is only for yourself because whatever happens only you will feel and bear all the risks, if you try to invite other people then it is very likely that if the person is addicted and experiences a lot of defeat, they will come to blame you, it is very possible.
710  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: October 05, 2023, 04:22:11 PM
I may not have the stats to back this but a very huge percentage of people who gamble are in it to make money. Only very few are doing it for fun. When you go to gambling platforms, you'll see a lot of lower-class people who forever use their last money to gamble (hoping that it could be their lucky day). I've gone to numerous physical gambling stores, but I haven't seen a really rich person there, it's always people who are struggling, wasting, and tossing their money away out of desperation.
Absolutely. Only the rich or people with stable income are only engaging in gambling to have fun and as means of entertainment, and then the rest are playing with the hopes to generate an income for they cannot think of other ways to provide for themselves and their families. Well-known casinos here in our country are all occupied only by rich people, and you cannot see any other people below their status. But on the other hand, you can see a lot of less fortunate people in some not well-known casinos or even some hidden areas in the country engaging in gambling activities. That is why you can see a huge difference in both settings, as high-end casinos are filled with fun and laughter, while the other one is filled with hopes and despair. And sometimes, we cannot just tell people that only gamble for fun and not see it as a money-generating factory, as we have different status and conditions in life.
So people who don't have money will gamble because they see there is an opportunity to make money from gambling. This makes them continue gambling, and even though they have little money, they still continue because there is hope of winning the game. This is a common occurrence everywhere because people hope to bring home some money so that the money can be used to buy their daily necessities. But they often won't make money from gambling because gambling is not a place to make money. Lower-class people should be able to realize that they will not be able to make money from gambling, so they need to look for better jobs so they can make money.

That's what often happens, most of them only see from one side just like you said "there is an opportunity to multiply finances", that's what always haunts their mindset and is also driven by very strong beliefs. Just because there is an opportunity that is not even guaranteed at all, they are so sure and continue to try it even though they have repeatedly found that defeat always dominates.

that's just the past being a lesson for me, now just focus on earning a living to prioritize family. Yes, even though I still like gambling, now I can control it and don't overdo it like before, now it's just entertainment when a friend invites me to play. Even though I had budgeted the money, it wasn't much. The statement of most brain gamblers who are addicted is that only big hopes are in the brain and nothing else

Well if you have already gone through it I hope you make it a very valuable lesson in your life, and from now on you can start with a better step, I mean walking with the purpose that should be lived, forget all your bad past and never think about trying it again.

Saka is one of the crucial player, yes but we don't rely on him too much like we used to few seasons back. I feel that we have got a good density around the squad and I think we still have lot of capable players in the team that can do the job what Saka does. Yeah it's a really a bad news for Gunners but I still won't pick City win for sure here. Arteta knows how important this game is and will try to pick the best team. It's a very important fixture for us against the top contender for the title race.
Gunners are in good shape, contending for EPL League title last season and also having one of the credible performances this season for the purpose to push the team to higher spots. Mikel Arteta have alot of work to handle, he looked more worried about his key player who's under probability of starting against Manchester City. Bukayo Saka picks up an injury against Lens in UEFA Champions League, there's doubt if he would return to training for weekend game against Manchester City. Mikel Arteta would sort out replacements for his winger and probably suits in the best strategy against Pep Guardiola men.

Yes, it's clear, of course it would be a shame if Bukayo Saka couldn't be played in the big match against Manchester City. Because of course, Arsenal also still has a mission to be undefeated at this moment but unfortunately, it seems like Arsenal always has problems regarding key players being injured for important matches like this. But yes, hopefully Arteta can implement a more appropriate strategy to adjust to the shortage of key players like this. Because after all, Arsenal will also be playing at home, and at least it is a necessity for Arsenal to still get points at home. Even though it was only get one point with a draw, of course it would still be a good result for them too.

Surely this will be a serious problem for Arsenal ahead of their big match against Manchester City later, Bukayo Saka's muscle injury problem is serious enough that he was pulled off the field in the previous match against Lens, and obviously this is a serious concern for Arteta because as we know Saka is one of the important players on their wing. Of course as you say this situation is really very unfortunate when they have to play a big team like Manchester City but they have to lose their key players. Oh well on the other hand I also heard that Arteta was a bit criticized by people for rarely giving Saka a break. Honestly, this is a big problem, and it's true that Arteta must quickly find a solution to this situation, or find a replacement that will not cause a significant void in Saka's absence in the next match against Manchester City. Playing at home in my opinion is a pretty heavy responsibility, even though they will play against the strongest team in the Premier League but still the situation at home seems to require them to achieve good results, agree a draw is not bad enough if victory is not possible.

Long story short.... If you really want a change, whatever it is! The change will for sure come!
As long as there is no intention, nothing will happen. Restrictions are merely an illusion because, as you mentioned, something we enjoy is hard to let go of. It's akin to our love for someone, as we are willing to sacrifice for the ones we love. Apply this to gambling; when someone reaches a point of infatuation with gambling, it becomes difficult to separate from it unless there is an intention to do so.

Is it painful? Certainly, but that pain is only temporary.
If you really want a change, I believe that change will come no matter whatever it is. But the process of attaining the change divers greatly. If the level of addiction is early enough such that it is not mature, change will be gotten easily. But there is a level addiction will reach, even the people trying to help will simply give up and the victim might not be able to redeem himself.
Our prayers should be that the addiction shouldn't get to the level that one will begin to sell properties in order to gamble. When it eventually gets here, there must be a great will to overcome it and people who has this will are not much.

True, basically only they themselves can make changes to themselves, especially to prevent their bad habits from happening again. There are some who suggest that they should enter a rehabilitation center and also be seriously guided by several professionals, well this can help but in my opinion it will not be able to fully, because it is clear as the context of our conversation that what can fully change them is from their own intentions and sincerity to stop and of course the process they go through will also definitely be different depending on their perception and trust to get out of the bad zone.

I think for those whose level of addiction is still low it doesn't really require much sacrifice to be able to stop, I think they just need to slowly awaken their brains and minds that have gone the wrong way, for example they can see how people who are too serious in gambling end up very concerned, I think that's enough to make those whose level of addiction is still low to make a deterrent and stop slowly, except for those who have reached a very severe level of addiction well then it takes a lot of contributions to help you although in the end it comes back to your sincerity. That's the fear, if they can't change it from now on then surely the next thing they will sell everything they have, there is no other choice to continue their bad habits except to sell their valuables and of course the problem will get bigger.

It is true that I see now that most of the gamblers are from the middle to lower class, it makes sense when I ask what their reasons are that make them survive to always gamble, which is yes as you said above "hoping to win" it is clear, the average of them always bring the same reason like this. This kind of mindset is really very frightening, which is where they see this gambling as a solution to increase their finances through a few wins, honestly I am quite concerned about those who have poor finances but instead enter gambling with unreasonable hopes and mindsets, instead of winning in the end they lose all the money they have, even if they have entered the level of addiction it is very possible that they will let their stomachs starve just to gamble and think that the money they bring can multiply when they win. But the question is, is that right? No, the fact is that gambling is not a place to earn income at all, that's the exact reason why until now there are still many who are down there because of defeat.

Gambling has taken a lot of victims and the average is from the middle to lower class because of the hope factor. So really it's better to change that mindset, this is only limited to entertainment not a place to make a living, I hope you will be careful not to go too far.
that's just the past being a lesson for me, now just focus on earning a living to prioritize family. Yes, even though I still like gambling, now I can control it and don't overdo it like before, now it's just entertainment when a friend invites me to play. Even though I had budgeted the money, it wasn't much. The statement of most brain gamblers who are addicted is that only big hopes are in the brain and nothing else

Well if you have already gone through it I hope you make it a very valuable lesson in your life, and from now on you can start with a better step, I mean walking with the purpose that should be lived, forget all your bad past and never think about trying it again. Of course it's better to focus on making a living from a place or job that makes more sense and guarantees you to get money for sure than you continue to depend on gambling which is clearly only limited to luck and of course there is no certainty in terms of earning.

To be honest, there is actually no prohibition at all for gambling if indeed they have full responsibility for everything that can happen, especially the number of defeats. If you can now control it, it's a good thing because only yourself can help you, other people won't care about your problems there. Agreed, limiting the budget is a very good idea to minimize your losses and besides that you should also limit the time to gamble, because obviously if you still allocate a lot of time there then it is very likely that you will be hooked again. It's just a matter of you getting your hopes up in the wrong place.

I decided to take that risk and placed a single bet on Chelsea to win. Thankfully they helped me win as well.  Grin  Chelsea found 2 goals in 2 minutes. This was enough to finish off Fulham already. Mudryk and Broja put on a good show there. But the man of the match was Colwill as he worked really hard in this game.

This was just the win Chelsea needed. Their next game is going to be against Burnley away. I expect another win by Chelsea there. It would be a really important win as well because they are going to face Arsenal in Stamford Bridge right after that.

Honestly, I was quite surprised by Chelsea's performance in this match, finally I saw The Bluess end the match by winning full points, if only I ventured to bet on Chelsea in this match I would have fared like you, but in fact it is quite difficult to believe in this team that always looks bad. This is the result we've been waiting for from a squad that has undergone an almost complete overhaul. Yes, it's true that in the first half Pochettino's squad has managed to take a two-goal lead from Fulham and I think it's quite impressive that as you said, the difference between the first and second goals in the first half is only one minute difference. Honestly, I see that Chelsea now have a bit of a winning mentality, and it seems that they have begun to be able to unite in terms of chemistry with other players, of course this is a pretty good start to getting back from the downturn.

Well right, next Chelsea will play Burnley at Turf Moor stadium before finally competing with Arsenal which is much stronger than Pochettino's squad. I hope Chelsea will return to the next match still with their performance against Fulham, I am sure if this is one of the beginnings of Chelsea's revival to get into the proper path as a big team.

As they get older, many people don't know what the future will hold, whether there will be wealth or poverty. Of course, these two options are the basis for an adult to prioritize gambling or daily needs, but if our income is greater, it is likely that the pleasure of gambling will continue gambling, not because it is an addict. When playing gambling, the main thing is looking for fun and entertainment. and if the future income is mediocre, prioritizing daily needs to survive
There are some people who have a lot of income and it will be right if they gamble. There are some people who have very little income and gambling will not be right. Gambling requires a lot of money and time. But not everyone has it. Those who gamble  After getting addicted, they never have peace in their lives. Because they sell all their possessions to raise money for gambling. I sometimes gamble to spend my free time. But when I see myself getting more addicted to gambling, I try to stay away from gambling.
People who live barely enough when they first start gambling will find it difficult to stay away from it, they hope that like others, when they get big money from gambling, this will attract the attention of various people. I have experienced something similar in the past when hopes were high like the others but on the contrary, it was a good experience to learn from. Now playing gambling is just to enjoy fun or entertainment, not the main thing is to make money

It is true that I see now that most of the gamblers are from the middle to lower class, it makes sense when I ask what their reasons are that make them survive to always gamble, which is yes as you said above "hoping to win" it is clear, the average of them always bring the same reason like this.

Yep that's right, oversized gambling only relies on luck or hockey, as good or smart as you are in gambling games most likely can't beat the smart casino machines or slots that have been set up in it, the winnings they get are only because they are lucky. and also many people believe in tricks or patterns to get a win even though it's just an advertisement or marketing for gambling admins to make players more excited to get a big win.

And some people who play gambling cannot control their emotions in playing, they are thirsty for a high sense of victory so they can just spend a large budget to play without realizing they have entered into a casino trap that is unlikely to give them a big win that they can only get a small win that is not much. big or small they bet it will have the same bad impact on them, it's just that if they bet with a small nominal it will only slow down their defeat, and vice versa if they play with a large bet it will make them thirsty for victory, and I remind you again this is only about luck not about the great or tricks they have.
It's hard to beat the casinos because it's their business and we're just players who want to make a little profit from them. Especially if we play slot games that really rely on luck, we can never get big wins like big multipliers. That will probably only come to really lucky gamblers. We can only try to play as usual and not chase win because that will be difficult for us. One day, we will be lucky enough to get a big multiplier, which means we get a big win.

If they cannot control their emotions and become more eager to win, it will only accelerate their loss of money. They can increase the amount of their bets because by placing big bets, they can win a lot of money. But that's not how it happened because it only accelerated his loss. And it's best for those who want to gamble to start by betting an amount they can afford so that if they lose, the loss won't be big and they won't regret it too deeply. That's why when gambling, we must remember to only gamble with money we can afford.

Of course it is difficult because it is a game that has been arranged in it, there will indeed be a big win that can be obtained but whether it is comparable to what has been lost or used up because of gambling in gambling, only a few people can play by controlling their emotions or passions and consider gambling as entertainment not the main livelihood. Maybe many people who have lost their assets or property because of gambling think they can turn things around easily from losing to winning, but in fact it is not like that the victory obtained is not much and cannot replace the assets and property they sacrifice for gambling, but that is their right but they should be aware of the bad effects that will befall them because of gambling addiction, the bad effects of gambling will befall them themselves and even their families and relatives can be affected.

Even for people who are addicted to gambling they can have negative thoughts, whether it's stealing or borrowing here and there to bet back in gambling, that's one of the bad effects of gambling, in my opinion the first point in gambling is to consider it just entertainment, not more than that, if you lose, don't think of betting again with a big taurhan so that it can be replaced and even profitable.

Now I can control my emotions in trading. It's just that I don't understand chart patterns. Even though indicators are very helpful, I believe chart patterns must be mastered. now I have bought XRP at the top price. but I'm not in a hurry to sell it. This is just a bit of a beginner's mistake I guess. I just believe in predictions not with feelings like many people use because they always contain emotions.
It is always good that you can control your emotions in trading and that is because not everyone can do that. When you can't control yourself and you even bought at the peak, that's the harder part.
But if you have established yourself and you're able to control it then, that's like already an advantage for you and it's just gonna be a matter of time for you break even or get a profit margin.

Yes I agree with your first point, people must be able to control their emotions in trading, if people who trade cannot control their emotions, of course there will be bad effects that they will feel whether it is in profit losses or time losses, and also not everyone can reach profit margins easily, there are risks waiting, they must be smart in controlling emotions so as not to get losses or not rash in trading.

Some people who succeed in trading are people who can regulate their emotions or can control their emotions properly, it is good for them to see people who have succeeded in trading take a little or a lot of lessons from those who have succeeded, it is unlikely that those who want to learn first understand trading. in addition to emotions they also have to be smart in choosing decisions to take an action and not be rash in terms of trading because it is good or bad they themselves will feel the impact, so learn first understand what new things you want before getting into it.
719  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 02, 2023, 02:22:52 PM
Why are Fulham's chances higher than Chelsea? In my opinion, this is just a prediction from the bookies where they see the results of several matches and rankings between Fulham and Chelsea this season, and maybe this is just a trap from the bookies to influence everyone's minds to bet on Fulham. I don't think it's possible that Chelsea can win the match against Fulham, but I also don't know who will win this match, because this season both teams have looked very bad in some of the matches they have played. So it is very difficult to predict who will win this match.
Even though both teams are not good enough this season, at least Fulham is a little better than Chelsea so the bookie is starting to direct predictions for the Fulham team, besides that the match also takes place at Fulham's home ground so there is little motivation for Fulham to take full points at home. Moreover, Fulham are also very aware that the team they will face today is a team that is not that strong even though Chelsea is a team that is quite famous and big in the Premier League.

The Blues are in quite a bad shape right now. Chelsea have only one win in six rounds of the EPL. Therefore, I am confident in the success of the home team.
Fulham on the background of Chelsea looks pretty good - Cottagers go in 11th place. Fulham - a strong team. I would take a risk and bet on a Fulham win.
With Chelsea's current state, it is only natural to place them not above Fulham. We all know what Chelsea are like now, even I personally don't believe in them, and even I always avoid them to be in my betting list. I think betting on them is taking a huge risk.
Fulham are not as strong as other teams that are in the top half of the table now, but when compared to Chelsea then they are still better in my opinion. now in this match, they will act as the host as well, it is an indirect advantage that Fulham gets.

Chelsea is still playing poorly despite spending over 400 million pounds in the last summer transfer window. Chelsea brings in contracts mainly for young players. They have integration problems or are injured and cannot help the team. In the upcoming transfer window, Coach Pochettino will have greater responsibility in finding ways to bring in more experienced players.
In fact, Chelsea's management spent heavily in the summer and started the season poorly. Currently, coach Pochettino has a further view. He is working to improve the team – if they can keep their spirits up.

I honestly don't know what happened to Pochettino's squad, 400 million pounds is a huge amount to overhaul all the players there, Todd has allocated that much money for the good of his squad and also for progress of course. But what we see now is very far from expectations, now they are much worse than last season. And obviously this is a big disappointment for Blues supporters. In addition, honestly I also don't really know what actions Pochettino will take in the upcoming transfer market, which is certainly true as you say Pochettino has a very big responsibility. Is it possible that Todd will spend more money in the upcoming transfer market to replace players they have bought last season at exorbitant prices but are useless? let's see.

I think that no matter how often they gamble even with a larger budget level it will have absolutely no effect on the final answer of winning or losing, especially for the winnings that they always hope for. Of course that's true, it's very difficult to get a win because other people who are also gambling are eager to get it, so the luck for winning is like rolling in turns. Therefore, as I said above, no matter how often you gamble and no matter how much budget you bring, it still won't be able to fully increase your chances of luck, and maybe even the opposite, instead of wanting to win but instead continue to experience such a big defeat.

Obviously, if they can realize that it is very difficult to be able to win even with the ways and methods that they think are good but always not in accordance with what is expected, with that alone we should already realize that this is really a matter of luck, and also vice versa it is true as you say if they have managed to win then it is better to quickly make a withdrawal, secure your winnings, because even if you play again not necessarily be able to win, but it is very possible that the money will be lost again. So yes stick to a realistic and rational mindset, this is not a place to make money.
Yes, we should reduce our budget and not expect to always win because gambling is difficult to win. Other people want to win too, just like us. And if we can reduce the budget, it means we care about ourselves and our money so that we can use it for other things. But if we do not intend to reduce the budget and still want or wish to pursue victory, we must be prepared for the risk of defeat that we might receive. We may be able to win, but we don't know when we can win, so we don't need to try too hard when playing gambling.

Reality is not always what we expect, especially in gambling because everything is determined by luck and the analysis we do. But we will get loss because without good analytical skills or luck, we will not be able to win. So we have to be able to think realistically and rationally that gambling is not a place to make money. We can only use gambling as a place of entertainment so that we can enjoy gambling and relax while gambling.

Yep that's right, oversized gambling only relies on luck or hockey, as good or smart as you are in gambling games most likely can't beat the smart casino machines or slots that have been set up in it, the winnings they get are only because they are lucky. and also many people believe in tricks or patterns to get a win even though it's just an advertisement or marketing for gambling admins to make players more excited to get a big win.
