Economy differs from country to country. I don't feel my country has same problem. Moreover, there are countries like India, China, etc which are developing at the rate of 6-7% per annum. When we compare it to inflation in these countries, GDP exceeds inflation by 1-2%.
Boom and Recession are two poles, countries dwell between them. All what matters is political and economical policies.
While the growth per year is a good statistic it does not tell the whole story since it is not that difficult to have that much growth when there is not much in the country, for a country like the United States growing that much is hard because it is very developed already.
The world is just not fair, while the develop countries continues to be richer, poor countries are also getting poorer. If you are living in develop country life is surely faster than in poor country therefore technology is more useful in rich countries. However, that is not a hindrance for someone who would like to succeed in life, instead it could be an inspiration to work harder to develop yourself and be rich someday.

Clippers @ Nuggets:
Both teams have been on their toes in the last few games, as both have to get something done to be able to get a winning record or be able to seal a playoff spot. Overall both teams have been able to get a good offensive result this season and it will be a spectacle for the home fans. Anyhow, the Clippers will try to fight their recent season struggles but will ultimately fall to the hands of the Nuggets. i ill take Nuggets +3.5 tonight.

Magic @ Warriors:
Both teams are heading in opposite directions, with the season-long struggle the Magic will need a miracle to pull out a win, moreover the recent trend has shown the Magic are unable to win games on a constant basis. Furthermore, this game will be a confidence booster for the Warriors who will need the most they can to keep the momentum on their side. im gonna go with GSW -12.5 here.

I will follow your instinct about betting on Nuggets and GSw.  I like your reasoning on choosing team,  i will parlay my bet of 0.1BTC,  i hope we have a good time after the match.  Goodluck for both of us
At this moment that the warriors are already insured of a spot in the west, I would not trust them with that points after what they recently showed against the Sixers at home. They are heavy favorites back then but they almost let the Sixer beat them at home. Also at the point, I believe the sixers are playing great against the magic but why is it the line is lower now, that sounds like a trap to me so I would stay away.

On the other side, I like the Denver and taking it at ML sounds more better to me.

While I do agree for other reasons, the problem you state can be solved by being paid with bitcoin. Some employers (notably, police) do have the option to pay wages in bitcoin. Though these are very few they are still there.
Not necessarily that all employees will adopt with bitcoin that is not relevant if they are not interested on bitcoin. Most just like to directly receive their paycheck and spend right away, bitcoin will not give them convenience because they are not into it unlike us who considers bitcoin already as part of our life. In the future when bitcoin will be majorly adopted, investors, traders, gamblers, and shoppers online will most likely be benefited.
7464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin the future of online gambling? on: March 15, 2017, 07:01:45 AM
we realize or not, i think bitcoin is really famous in the online gambling and this could make people judges bitcoin as for illegal thing and they only thinking that bitcoin is just for playing gambling. but with the simple of bitcoin, i think many people nowadays is using their bitcoin to playing gambling in online and they can made much of bitcoin from the games.
Gambling is a bad thing, and bitcoin encourages it since bitcoin has not documentation and the user is always hidden means that anyone could do so, so your kid could just go on the internet and start gambling and that is the bad thing about bitcoin, but the good thing is that we gamble with any amount we want.

Its good point to discuss thoroughly since the concerns are not only adults but including childrens who don't have enough guidance in the usage of modern technology especially with bitcoin. There are pros and cons of bitcoin but being responsible in its usage could be the possibility of an individual utilizing it to prosper. There is a big possibility that maybe sooner or later bitcoin will become the of online gamblingm
It's more on the parents problem in the future if they will not monitor their kids properly, gambling with bitcoin is very easy and it does not require a KYC so kids can fake their information and they are good to go. For me it's only a small problem and this will not stop the progress of bitcoin online gambling as sooner or later this will also be address once gambling sites will be regulated by the government and require them to get a license before they can operate.
7465  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell or wait? on: March 15, 2017, 06:13:43 AM
In my opinion if you has many bitcoin better you sell, seems currently will continue decline.

What prices are you currently looking at? We have been increasing steadily for a while now other than the crash due to ETF denial.
Even with a mild crash we rebounded back up to $1200+ in less than 12 hours.
I have more faith in BTC now, than I did 1 week ago.

Personally for me, I wouldn't buy Bitcoin at these prices. Bitcoin always has ups and downs in price and I think we are still on the upside. I'm waiting for some kind of temporary drop in price to buy more. There could be some people cashing out gains or whales manipulating the price, but there are always dips along the way.
I think, the best price to buy again Bitcoin is at rate $1000. But I think it's impossible
the price of Bitcoin will be down again. We can see every day that price is increasing.

the best price to buy bitcoin at is $10 but it will never happen again. these are just "wishes" and if you start planning on your wishes, you will soon lose the chance of joining the revolution and buying bitcoin at a "so called high price" which will soon be super cheap price. $220 was called too expensive once but i bought there. $450 was also said to be super expensive and a bubble one but i bought more bitcoin there. last year $730 was again called to be super expensive but i bought more bitcoin there too. and so on.

and besides you can buy in the dips but for that you need to leave your money on an exchange site and leave it in an open order. are you willing to take that risk? remember the exchange hacks?
That's the risk, you cannot just entrust your money in a certain exchange even how reputable they are. Buy at the right time and the right time is based on your evaluation in the present market and your speculation in the future. People will always say expensive because they fail to analyze the price trend, if one believes that bitcoin will continue to progress then buying at any given time is worth the risk.
7466  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: March 15, 2017, 04:55:53 AM
Definitely recommend you Invest in something before you gamble that same money away. There's many "Safe" investments out there for one to invest in. However, gambling is all luck. At least if you invest, you got a better chance to make something out of that same money.
Aiming for money by doing both will give you a disaster, gambling and investing are two different things and they have different level of risk.
If you are good in gambling then definitely gambling is for you as you can become a professional and make a living in gambling, however it's apparent to us that the success rate in gambling are relatively low, therefore it's better to choose investment for lesser risk and better chance of success.

Thunder at Nets
These two squads rank in the top seven in pace of play and the Nets rank near the bottom of the league in defensive efficiency. Take the over on Tuesday night.
I go with the Thunder tonight cause the Nets play like crap even at home.
But one thing i know is that they can score so might be a high scoring game.
Especially with Westbrook going for the record of triple doubles so close now.
Beast mode might be enabled tonight for this affair. Grin
Westbrook got a very convincing win as they route the Brooklyn Nets at home, they are really protecting their playoffs spot and it's a good for them winning on the road. What I did with this game was I put only in the Thunder moneyline, I was a little hesitant since they are not playing well lately on the road and thank for the win although the payout is not really that big.

Meanwhile, game between the warriors and sixers looks interesting, looks like the warriors are a garbage team now, they are down double digits in the 3rd.

This is really great, any OP have you made money with the signals that you are saying? I want to try it but I'm quite skeptical since there is no proof yet that signal are really that reliable. I would to here from you my fellow countrymen than from other people, please enlighten me, I know there is some kind of fee after the free, so I just want to make use of my money right.
7469  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: you need to overcome your fear of losing money on: March 14, 2017, 08:11:14 AM
We have those experience of losing money in trading transaction or any business. But the things is how do we deal in such loss.

It is a great thing if after experiencing those things, we learn how to deal with it again. We will be more wiser and we will be more aware and what to do. Making us more wise in our decisions. 
Exactly, you learn from your mistakes and you continue your journey, there is nothing to fear because if you do, you will not be a successful trader. Trading offers great opportunity if you believe you can do it, never doubt yourself if you do hard work because if people can do it, you can do it as well.
We all start from the beginning and our knowledge that we learn and experience along the way is vital for a long term journey to succeed.

is there a motorcycle dealer / leasing accept credit payments motor using bitcoin?
There is no such thing in our country yet, but it's just a form of payment and with your bitcoin why not just cash it out and pay directly to the company.
Anyway, maybe in the future we can see this kind of improvement and I'm hoping it would also be possible in our country, it will give convenience to us to pay our credit directly online.

Bitcoin gambling online Poker, Sports Betting & Casino

Bitcoin gambling becomes more and more famous for online players and bettors around the world. This is because Bitcoins are anonymous, decentralized with instant transfers and almost no processing fees. Unfortunately, as Bitcoin gambling can be offered anonymously, some scammers try to take advantage of this unique feature.

Game Protect highly recommend to select Bitcoin gambling operators wisely! Please also take a look at our Online gambling scams list. This list is of course not complete, as there are 100s of operators and new operators join the online gambling market frequently. But if a Bitcoin gambling operator is on this list, you should definetely avoid them!

If you have enough from criminal Bitcoin gambling operators, simply register your online Poker, Sports Betting and Casino accounts with Game Protect and sleep better! Wink


Well even in non bitcoin gambling sites, scammers do exist also. The good thing with bitcoin gambling sites is because we are a big community here who are helping each other making reviews on sites that we usually play, it's not easy for the gambling sites to scam us as they will also doubt that due to the big market that they are catering, one mistake will lose their income forever while maintaining a reputable site will let them earn regularly.

Reputation is the very important in running a gambling site business and I would not bet on sites with bad reputation coming only from reputable person as well.

I dont know why but blackjack is really close to my heart and when it comes to playing this game i can say that i am confident with my skills of playing this game than any other  gambling game

I see people that are winning most of their money on gambling with blackjack. And you are actually good at it means that you surely got somehow professional skill on it. That's the best thing if you are good in a certain gambling game, you will have an assurance on it.
I love to learn a lot of games to try my luck but my time schedule would not allow it really, I'm busy with my job and I find sports betting and dice suitable for my time. I believe also that sports betting is where I get most of my winning without calculating my loses as I'm pretty sure it will result to negative.
7473  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Reason Bitcoin will always be #1 on: March 14, 2017, 02:35:06 AM
The reason bitcoin will always be number one for me because of its easy to use, easy to process to pay bills online, all in one. I can use bitcoin without hassle, and can gives extra income to anyone users in this forum. Its really the number one for me also because its secured, anynomity and its decentralized.
The system of bitcoin can always be duplicated but since this is the first crypto currency where people patronize that is why it's number 1 now. However, that does not mean that it will always remain to be number 1, it's still depend on how people will accept it.
As for the moment, I'm confident that it is number 1 because it has a good value and currently it's growing along with the increases of adoption rate
which is the primary reason of bitcoin's success.
7474  Economy / Economics / Re: Which one is good, trading or investing? on: March 13, 2017, 01:15:00 PM
Sometimes long term investments are profitable.Yes ofcourse it is but the risk of losing money in investing is higher than trading does
Actually investors are whom fund the traders and hence being a investor is inferior as compared to trader I feel because a trader is someone who believes in his own capabilities while investing money under others is something what lazy people would do. But that been said if you don't have the abilities it's best to invest.
The thing is not all of us has the skills in trading and even if you have that money to start it, its still useless and you are just fighting in a losing battle.
We have different options on how to spend our money, hence investment is best for ordinary people as all they need is just to trust the business or project they are putting their money. For lazy people, the best form of investment which I believe has a good potential is just by simply holding bitcoin.
7475  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and Fraud on: March 13, 2017, 06:36:46 AM
Assuming a merchant accept Bitcoin,

You as a shopper, place an order, and that merchant did not deliver, or sent to the wrong address, or sent a fake product.

You can not reverse the payment, you can get your bitcoins back, and the only thing you can do it leave a negative feedback.

Of course, there are many other scenarios, like phishing websites, fake websites, selective scams, and so on

What are your thoughts and ideas to prevent these scams.
First of all, bitcoin is not paypal who's capable of doing what you mentioned. The system of bitcoin is very much transparent to us and we know it's limitation so under the situation, it should be the transacting parties initiative to transact safely. Bitcoin was not created solely for online shopping, it's just a currency that can be use for online transaction and it has nothing to do with the safety of both party to make a successful transaction.

7477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: March 13, 2017, 05:20:20 AM
not everyone becomes addicted, working in a casino I see the same people in there everyday, those people def have addiction, i can go to the casino and be satisfied and not need to go back the next day n so on, like ive said on other post people are addicted dont even realize it or dont care, they get satisfaction out of just being in a casino spending there money, they literally sit at a machine just to push a button to chase the big prize, have realistic expectations when you go to a casino and ul be ok.
Probably the best way to do when you are going into casino is just to have fun, it's more fun in real casino than just playing in gambling site. However, it's also more risky in real casino as that fun if not controlled will be a way to temp us to spend the money which is supposedly not for gambling.
They have all the means to withdraw your cash in your ATM, it was designed for gamblers to spend more and they make more money.

Be wise and think for the consequences in every actions you are making.
7478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Investment Doubt on: March 13, 2017, 02:26:04 AM
A person with good financial analysis would probably have investments doubts on gambling because he more value on money that will be lost from more gambling rounds. When we play gambling gamea online we are prepared to have losses and in winning we always expect without any preparation, on what will happen in the future of the investments you put.
Sometimes there are more things to be worried about rather than seeing your investments in a casino every day. Someone who would place their money in casinos would be a risky move, but you should know that online casinos are always profiting and if they didn't, they would close down.
Risk is always in investment regardless of what it is, as investors we should know and accept that because if the reality is there is no easy money in investment. Others have shared their views and opinion in investing in casinos and most of the opinion shared are positive.
That could be our basis to invest but we need not to be greedy as investment does not grow as fast as we expected, it take time so patience is needed.
7479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Bitcoin even have a future? on: March 12, 2017, 05:01:27 AM
Yes bitcoin will have a good future eventhough we just have a setback in SEC not approving the ETF. However, this is just minor, the only drawback I can think of right now is the scalability issue as a result transaction fee is rising up. Other than that, bitcoin future is looking good. Maybe in the future it will truly chance the horizon of many countries with regards to doing online transaction and bitcoin will be the no. 1 global payment relegating other payment option like Paypal, WU and others.
yes that is right bitcoin is in fact our future currency. in future majority of the people of the world will be using bitcoin and then bitcoin will become the main currency of the world as people will hen be giving preference to online currency and for online trading and shopping bitcoin will be their first choice.
Bitcoin can't be the main and primary currency in the world because that seems impossible for this kind of limited currency. We need to remember that the bitcoin is limited and it is volatile on its price so it will be hard for us to make it as a main currency because the one we need is a currency that has a fixed value and also stable and that is what bitcoin lacks off so we need to accept the fact that after years and years we will still sticking and using fiat.
This world will change into a decentralized world if bitcoin will be the mainstream currency which is impossible to happen. The aware of people with bitcoin is not big enough compared to fiat that we are using in a daily basis. In making an speculation, we should know the current standing of bitcoin as that would help to make a realistic one, for now bitcoin is still a payment system or an alternate currency that has no power to replace fiat.
7480  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of the money on: March 12, 2017, 04:22:42 AM
I play dice game because the fun and excitement there is extreme and I earn a large from bitcoin gambling particularly in dice game, I earn a large profit from it then I stop the gambling. I play only a small amount when I am bored but for all the dice game is the best from me.
That's rare, you earn a lot in gambling but you only play with a small amount of money. Most of us here are losers and we lose a big amount of money in dice because we always play relying on our luck, I think dice is the hardest gambling game to win, and they are the most profitable in the industry.
Now, I'm into sports betting and I'm confident with putting a bigger bets because I know how to cap games and sometimes I make it right.
