Saving money would be easy if you know what is your responsibility as an adult. The most effective way on how to save your money is to list all of the bills that you are going to pay, then list of the things you need daily, for example is your groceries, then after you paid all of your bills and already did shopped for your groceries, then do the savings, because it is hard to do the savings first before you paid all of your bills, you'' experience money shortage with that, you could have debts too instead of having money in your bank.

The other way to save money is don't buy the things that you don't need, the things you wanted is only your desire or satisfaction, after you bought it, you'll just ignore it becase you want new things, and it is a waste of money.

To make the story short, know your wants and needs, and as much as possible, ignore most of the things you wanted, focus on the things you need.

This is exactly will soon be over, hang in there, autumn is coming. in autumn, we always see a growth trend and it's a buzz!! I look forward to that time!!! and then we can make good money! I didn't have time to get my money out in January, so I'm looking forward to the autumn and the market growth, because now I have experience and will definitely get over profit!!!

Same here as well, but it is not that I'm regretting what I didn't do way back in January when the market was still fine unlike now, but yes, I'm holding my coin. Maybe I missed the opportunity to sell my coins at the good price but sometimes life is like that, we thought we could make more profits so we hold but instead the market goes down and we hold not because we were waiting for the prices to go up even more, we are holding because the price is too low for us to risk our coins by selling them.

We are patiently holding waiting for the next PUMP that is going to happen in the right time, we don't know if it is going to be the same last year which by the month of September starts, the market is also starting to PUMP.
743  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will the Crypto market collapse on: August 27, 2018, 08:10:31 AM
I think that the cryptocurrency market cannot collapse. The cryptocurrency is a new technology that will play a very important role in the future social development. I think the cryptocurrency market is very promising. I am full of confidence in cryptocurrency.

To be frankly honest it will, cryptocurrency is not different on the other things that are existing or existed on this world, everything ends, animals, people, plants, or even material things will end in the right time, if you are a biblical person and you believe in God, then I know you believe that someday this world will come to its end which is the Judgment Day.

But for now, cryptocurrency is way far from ending, maybe it is not on the good season right now but it doesn't mean it will continue to crash as in it doesn't have any price at all, we are just in the bearish trend that is why.
744  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: August 27, 2018, 06:57:57 AM
Quitting a game after loosing is the best way to avoid more lose of asset , As a gambler I do stop playing after loosing and came back after a day or two , not by regaining my lose on the other day but to get a profit or to win on that day. I make a schedule of playing gambling and the worth of asset that I will play for the day. On my move, I think I can avoid bankruptcy in playing gambling.

Maybe you can avoid bankruptcy but you are on your way there, even though you are not losing one time big time, still, a lost is a lost, the bottom line here is that you are still losing your money. Rather than having an interval on playing gambling, if the outcome is still the same and you know it, why not just completely get yourself out of the game, there is no point on playing if you are not making any profits at all.

If you are going to say it is just for fun, well you are indeed having fun but what about your money, there is no fun anymore if you don't have any fiat left on your wallet, it is all about getting practical.
745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: August 27, 2018, 06:14:01 AM
Why focus so much on individuals? Look at the countries where gambling is 100% legalized, such as Macau and Monaco. These countries have become super-rich due to the tax revenues from casinos. Also, huge number of jobs are created as a result of gambling.  

Bad effects will occur and the impact will be greater than the good one. Not all countries can legalize gambling even though the potential state revenue that can be obtained from this sector is quite tempting.
It depends on what country we are living, gambling is just a form of entertainment but it's an expensive type.
Poor countries are against gambling because they know it will only make their people poorer as people are desperate to make instant money without knowing their chances.

I agree with you, legalizing gambling doesn't mean the same thing will happen in a certain country, perhaps it may worsen the situation of that certain country. I guess it depends on the situation of the society of that country for them to legalize gambling, but if the person who Governs that certain country knows that gambling will not contribute any help, then he will not legalize gambling, simple as that.

For example here in our country, the society is having too many problems about drugs and killings everywhere, poverty is also one of the biggest problem we are facing, so technically I don't think that gambling might help us right now.
746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: August 27, 2018, 04:14:41 AM
With addiction as a side effect of gambling, I do wish to know what exactly the success rate of your gambling is. How many times have you not found yourself facing simply losses and that you still pin hope on success?

Gambling allows you to think that you will win every time in spite of the losses that you incur. You feel that success is just missed by a margin as thin as a hair. Every time you lose, you do feel that success was almost there and you could have had it almost certainly. And since it was almost a success story just missed by a very thin margin, you do not mind going in for another try only to miss again by a thinner margin! One success and you are happy. But does it stop? No. You feel that your efforts have now borne fruit and here onward you will surely win every time you take a shot in that game. But what happens? You lose again by a margin thinner than the previous time.

In this way we are lured every time for that success almost at hand, which we saw but could not get hold of. And we try time and again because it is so near. The truth is that you will find you end up losing everything in the hope of laying your hands on that success. Only the extremely self-controlled man will stop himself from further gambling the moment he tastes success.

True, many times one success can compensate for all the losses incurred. But what we miss is that that success itself is extremely rare. It is not a bad thing to have hope. But hope serves when we work hard towards success not otherwise.

This is 100% legit, this already happened to me, I'm playing gambling and I've made profits but I've noticed that I'm losing my money---profits, so I hesitated for a moment that time, I've asked my self if I'm going to continue or not because I care about my profits, and what you have said that "we almost feel that success is almost there" that is why we give another shot is very accurate.

That is the reason why most of the gamblers never have a second thought on continuing betting even though they are losing, they have this mindset, and this mindset is a very giant risk they are taking everyday on their gambling life.
747  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How long should one have to wait to sell on: August 24, 2018, 05:38:22 PM
You can't tell how long you are going to wait, because you are just going to sell your tokens when you know it is the right time to harvest your profits. And if you are patient you will never be bored on waiting for the moment you could sell the tokens you are holding because you longed for it, you are waiting for that time, so you could feel the profits you've been finding since the market turns to red.

To sell your tokens is when the market is in the bull run, that is the time when the wait should stop, you won't even realize that you spent some time on waiting when you know that you have the profits in your hand, you knew that you have it, seize it, and don't let that right time to go away.
748  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to choose bounty? on: August 24, 2018, 04:35:50 PM
We all know that there are a lot of bounty in the bounty section as we can see, but my question is how to choose good bounty campaign that we are able to  earn money?

We could earn money even if we just randomly joined any bounty, but in 10 out of 10 bounties, only 7 of them will pay you at the end of their bounty and the rest are all scams.


Many people mention, that the only way to determine whether the bounty is profitable or not  is by reading its white paper but may I ask to those expert here what is the other way to determine the profitable bounty?

Sometimes it is not enough to read whitepapers because there is a lot of things that you should do to determine if it is a good bounty or not. You also have to check their background, just simply google all of the people in their team, do a solid research, check their partners(that would help you too) if their partners are big company, then the chances of earning big amount of money is also big.

Don't get your hopes high because you found out that a certain bounty that you are going to join have great partners, sometimes at the end, no matter how great their project is at the start, if they are going to be a scam then there is nothing you could do to prevent that to happen.
749  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Patience is the key on: August 24, 2018, 02:43:40 PM
It may be that being patient is "the key", but by  being patient I lost 90% of the value of my tokens ...
If I had sold everything a few months ago, I would definitely be better now.
But we are patient, and we hope for the best.

Maybe it is not just the patient, maybe it is because of greediness also, that is why you have lost your profits in the tokens that you were holding. I've already experienced something like that, I'm holding MCO tokens, and when it pumped really hard, I've had second thoughts if I'm going to sell it or wait for its price to exceed its current price way back 2017 I think, and guess what, instead of gaining profits, I didn't make any, it started to dump and I was very disappointed that time, until now I'm still holding that MCO tokens and waiting for the right time.

If you missed the opportunity to make profits with a certain coin because of too much patient you have in holding, then don't be upset or blame yourself, there is always another chance for it, and it would be much bigger than what you thought. Smiley
750  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Know when to stop a HODL/HOLD on: August 24, 2018, 01:43:41 PM
Newbies can easily be influenced from what they hear from speculations.. I've read several times people tend to advice to hold long term. because its easy for them to say JUST HOLD cause theyre not the one losing! For me its not all about holding, its being smart about your own invesment know when to stop and cut the losses.  


What are your thoughts?

It is normal for newbies to be feeded by those people who are superior to them, they shoudn't be ashamed of it, but they should be if they remain on being a newbie forever, I mean if they are always a spoon feed people, then they have no chance on surviving on this world, they would just cry if they get scammed or if they lost their profits. Holding is not bad, but holding forever is bad.


The reason why people are holding thier tokens is because they are not satisfied with the prices, they wanted more, so they hodl, but what happened is the opposite, instead of increasing of its price, it decreased, so they hodl again, and then when the right time will come when they get satisfied with the prices, then they will sell it all with no hesitation, that is how it works. It is all about profits that we are after that is why we go to the option "Hodl".

752  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: August 23, 2018, 03:43:09 AM
The 100% sure way would be to self-exclude yourself from all online and land casinos so that you can't gamble even if you want to.

If a certain person is addicted already in gambling, then self-excluding wouldn't be enough for him but if you are just a beginner in the gambling world then it mgiht work. Gambling addicts are the ones who are having troubles on how to resist the urge of playing gambling, it became part of their lives that is why removing it would be a hardest thing to do for them. It might take some time, but if they could completely quit gambling, then that would be an achievement for them.
753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner's Luck on: August 22, 2018, 06:14:59 PM
Unfortunately, my first luck was bad luck I lost like 150$ on sport bettings. I took advice from betting tips on mobile apps but they didn't work Embarrassed. But then I recover my money by help of mine idea Grin
Good for you then, actually luck doesn't mean 'good' everytime but generally people think as a good thing.

Well that's where being lucky comes from so of course people will always or most of the time associate luck with something good. Bad luck often times is not worth mentioning.

We have our own type of luck, taking some advices on a mobile apps is not going to work for sure, you and the others who you sees making fortune in gambling shares different luck, meaning, if he wins it doesn't mean you are also going to win if you follow every single tips he is going to say to you. House is a very tough player to compete with, it is not fixed like the other games which do have patterns and stuffs that you could use to win, NO, it is all random.

And that what it makes annoying, you are going to lose most of the time, "beginners luck" also worked on me the first time I tried gambling but that is all, after I tried it again, I've lost my profits and even my capital.
754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: August 22, 2018, 04:58:06 PM
I been a long playing gambling as my fast time to fullfil my happiness not get become successful
I can't see success in gambling, gambling is not a source of income is play for fun and exciting games.

that is right, and gambling is not a source of income. gambling is just for fun, and we can enjoy the game by playing many games in the gambling places. we want to make a win in the gambling game and reach success in the gambling, but unfortunately, we cannot do that because, in the gambling, we don't know when the time we can win. the most time of playing gambling, we only get lost, so we need to understand this.

That is the point, you can't call it that it is just for fun if you are losing, there is no fun on it at all. Let's just be all honest here, we do gambling or we did gamble because of one thing, and that is for profits, most of the gamblers are after the big money they could won on it(depends on their bet of course), even if they are losing most of the time, they are still keep on betting because they are being blinded by their expectation.

Many people have decided to ignore this fact, that is why there are too many people who are addicted in gambling and they are complaining about what happened to their money.
755  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Be calm when the market falls on: August 22, 2018, 03:36:25 PM
we cant control the emotions of people specially those who has investment because they are on the position that they might lose their money and they cant make it come back that is why they sell immediately to prevent the mass lose of their money.

Maybe we can't, but if they really have enough knowledge about cryptocurrency then they are not going to panic every time when the market in on the bearish season. Yes, we are talking money here but why bother worrying if you have no doubts on the tokens that you are holding, you are the one that gives yourself a problem, you are just making yourself paranoid even though there is no reason for that.


Instead of worrying about the market, why not just chill in your room, do something else to freshen up your mind, hangout with friends, because even you worry about your tokens, if it is really going to dump even more, then there is nothing you can do about it.
756  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should buy altcoin now? on: August 22, 2018, 09:03:45 AM

Looking at the market at the moment, there has been an increase in altcoin from a low of $ 5900 at the end of June 2018 to $ 8200 today. However, the value of the altcoin did not increase, some of it decreased. Percentage of market capitalization of the current bitcoin compared to the overall market is over 47%. Is this the right time to buy altcoin to make a profit?

The strategy Buy Low and Sell High is the most common thing that Traders do, it is profitable of course from the word itself you are going to buy in a low price and wait for it to pump then sell it, easy profit, but, you also have to consider what tokens you are going to buy because not all of them would pump but some of them would dump even more, so be careful on choosing what tokens you are going to use in Trading.

Grabbing the opportunity to buy tokens right now is a pretty ballsy move to do since we are not sure when would be the market going back to green one again.
757  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is this the end of Bitcoin ? on: August 22, 2018, 06:10:49 AM
I have seen the crypto market for last 1 year and the last 6 months are not so good for BTC and Alts.
The total market cap is going down and price of BTC is pumping and dumping again and again.
What should we do now hold or take a exit and wait for more drop ?
 

Usually, quitting or thinking for another option like to sell out your bitcoins because its price is going down and up and you are a little bit confused on what is happening now in the market is the most common thing that most people suggest or already did in this forum. You are just looking on a tree that is in front of you, why not look on the entire forest(I mean you are looking on the price of bitcoin that is why you are panicking), instead of looking for its price only, why not look for its capability to pump even more in the long run, bitcoin will not be devalued just like that.

Thinking this way that bitcoin is going to end because of its price means that you are not that knowledgeable about Bitcoin, there is a term called "volatility" on its price so I guess it is just normal for pump and dump to happen.
758  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading or mining? on: August 20, 2018, 04:32:39 PM
Trading has it's advantages so is mining.  The right approach to all these is to combine the both trading and mining in order to maximise income and gain from both activities!

Yet we need to have a bigger capital for us to do them both, and what you have said is true, they have their own advantages and disadvantages. Actually, it could be better if a certain someone could do it both, the bigger profits he could get of course, and the advantage of having multiple source of income is that you are not going to have any problem at all in case the other one messed up.

However, when you are going to choose one, it would have to depends on what you can do, on what field do you excel the most, though anything could be master by studying about it. So, if I'm going to choose, I'd go for mining first if you have the money, and while I'm earning money on mining, I would slowly engage to the world of Trading.
759  Economy / Economics / Re: Know Your Customer on: August 20, 2018, 03:02:43 PM
I'm not sure what is your problem. We have no choice due to under law. please read below.
This is share wiki pedia in term of KYC.
Know your customer (alternatively know your client or 'KYC') is the process of a business verifying the identity of its clients and assessing potential risks of illegal intentions for the business relationship. The term is also used to refer to the bank regulations and anti-money laundering regulations which govern these activities. Know your customer processes are also employed by companies of all sizes for the purpose of ensuring their proposed agents, consultants, or distributors are anti-bribery compliant. Banks, insurers and export creditors are increasingly demanding that customers provide detailed anti-corruption due diligence information.

But this should only applies for the people who invested on a certain ICO because they are the ones who launched their money for this investment, which is related to the anti-money laundering regulations, but if it is only about social media bounties, signature campaigns, I guess it is not necessary to be apply, we are just bounty hunters that are just participating through this forum and even in social media without putting up any big capital at all for a certain company to be wary about our personal backgrounds.

Because it is not safe for someone to always gives his real identity in the internet, we don't even know them if we could really trust them with our personal information, they might use it on bad things like faking their identity using ours.
760  Economy / Economics / Re: Why spend time in bitcoins? on: August 20, 2018, 01:23:28 PM
We all experience being financially challenged and we cannot deny that money makes us revolve around it. When we find ways to alleviate our financial suffering, we stand our ground and spend so much effort just to see the result and of course, benefit from it. Do you think that spending time and effort to gain bitcoins is a rational idea? Do you think that you could've been wasting your time? Let me know about your thoughts.

There is no way that someone is just wasting his time when he is going the things that's benefit him, it is obviously right to do that kind of thing, I mean spending my time to earn bitcoins is the most precious time that I'm having, but the first of the "most" things that I'm happy to spend my time is of course when I'm with my family. I'm a little bit disappointed when I'm spending my time on attending classes with those teachers that we have that didn't even know how to teach, how ironic.

I wanted to spend most of my time on earning bitcoin to be honest rather than to spend it on gaming or watching movie, because my mindset is that I could do that some kind of stuffs later after I finished my work, priorities comes first.
