Gambling could lead us to some bad moments or bad feeling, stay away from it if it gave you those things. You're not the right one to gambling. Just investing in something else, trading, PTC ,HYIP , whatever but not gambling.

Investing money in HYIP programs is worst than gambling because most of these programs are a scam and you don't know whether you can get back at least your investments. But in gambling at least you can play those games to enjoy your free time even though you don't make money from it. Never invest money in those scam programs.
Exactly, you are just wasting your time and money and if you are investing on it you will also help in promoting so the program will run longer and you didn't realize your making also other people's lives miserable. Investing that is too good to be true will always result in scam so as an investor we should know that signs, instead if we really want to take risk then learn a skilled based gambling and develop your skills to be successful.
But in facts i think, many people already earned money from HYIP better than gambling. Yes somebody are stupid enough to spend all their assets on the HYIP investment. That was absolutely stupid.
There are people who have already earned there but the fact is that, it's scamming you. Nothing is really legitimate there and if you manage to be part of it in the early run, then good. If it's almost a month or two, it's hard to be assured that it's going to work out because it's the time that it collapses.

Presumably as technology advances the cost of cleaner alternatives fuels will continue to decrease. Are there any hurdles that cannot be overcome?
Thinking about the hard stuff could help lessen the difficulty of it, but the hurdles that everyone can manage is the struggle with themselves. If you think about it, the discipline in people should be followed that no one should litter anywhere even if there's no one looking because it could just make the world dirtier. It's that hurdle that for sure, not everyone can overcome.

Trading and gambling are closely related the same as investment and gambling are very closely related. I think trading can be counted as gambling just because your hoping for higher prices when it may never come.
Trading and gambling is a big difference, in gambling we cant predict the outcome it's based on luck, the only way to predict gambling is to play skills-based gambling like sports, research and analyze the team could make us on profit. in others hands, trading, we are not hoping the price goes higher but we predict it using technical analysis.
We can never be sure of the outcome in gambling especially if it's something that you are not used to having. If you think that you will have to increase the chance of winning in it, it's okay because you can by applying strategies in gambling and that would significantly improve your performance. In trading, you will risk your money in a way that you hope that you will profit, like the price of it rising.
7784  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: November 06, 2017, 08:58:06 AM
it has to spread quickly. because nature is worn out. People are so cruel. everything is running out. sun, wave, wind ... we have to turn everything into energy. but we can protect it in this way. oil must be abandoned.

Technology is improving every day and the solar panels and windpower turbines are getting cheaper. May be within the next 10-15 years, we will be able to generate most of the electricity from renewable sources, such as solar, wind, tidal, and Uranium. But I still don't know when we will be able to replace the gasoline run vehicles with electric vehicles.

Hopefully, it won't be too late for our world and I hope that it could recover. The continuous addition of CO2 gases in the atmosphere won't stop and it will still continue but with the help of emerging technologies, it could really be slowed down and hoping that it could stop the worsening of the environment completely.

Nothing can be done, if the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing. However, the scientists are making good progress in this sector. They are now attempting to pump carbon dioxide in to basalt rock, where it can remain stably trapped for many tens of thousands of years.
It's the first time I have heard of this, and knowing that it could be done, hopefully, it would affect the CO2 in the atmosphere somehow. It would just be the people's discipline to follow certain rules with concern about disposal of waste, even the simple biodegradable and non-biodegradable materials, it should be followed completely. In our country, it's not very strict, that's why it's saddening and very polluted.
7785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: November 06, 2017, 07:59:40 AM
The important lesson that I learned from gambling with bitcoin is you should not be greedy and the end result always has the dependence upon the luck. However hard you make strategies, you need luck to experience the win. Because most of the events I participate were sports betting.
there's really a fun time with sports betting mate, because even the under dogs are winnings previously, i learned that not because strong team
have its advantage not always that they can win the game, its really luck that's bring some success inside the gambling activity.
It's the risk that you are willing to take to bet on the underdogs, then that's your choice. If you could somehow compute for the amount of win that you could make if the underdog wins, then you could would know how much would be needed to bet so that you can get back everything that you lost everytime you win. Somehow, a martingale type of betting. That's just patience and perseverance.
7786  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: November 06, 2017, 07:17:16 AM
I would like to buy stuffs after i won a bet. Mostly stuffs like drinks, foods and some gifts for my girls. I usually spend money to enjoy my life. So how about you ?
There are a lot of stuff you can buy with money, the difference is if you need it or just want it. If you know what you need then it's no problem for you to decide. In my experience, I have just kept my winnings in a cold storage wallet for the further keeping of my savings and hopefully, it would make my assets a lot bigger. I think it could happen just that you should be patient in your gaming.

7788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 06, 2017, 03:51:12 AM
Ofcourse to invest. First of all I think investing is the best and legal way because in other country gambling is illegal. Although they are both required to risk a money, investing is more safe and has a higher profit. You don't need to compete to someone here. You don't have to do anything. You will just invest and wait for the time that you can finally earn a profit. Unlike in gambling, you must study some strategies to win. You will stressed yourself and fight for your own.
You need skill to investing too, researching what you gonna invest, analyzing the market, and find a good entry point, that all require skill and lot of time to learn you cant asking what to coin to invest in the forum and blindly follow it, you must do your own research. also in my opinion gambling had a higher profit than invest because highrisk=highreward
Yes, I agree that when you invest a skill is one of the requirements in it, and I believe that the same is needed when you gamble. Anything with higher risk has higher possibility of winning and lossing, and gaining. I also think that both of them requires luck but gambling has a higher luck requirement.
If you think about it, gambling could be considered as an investment especially if you're the one who's going to make your money grow and you will not depend on anyone of it. You could probably gamble to make your $100 to $1000 if you are that good, then the $100 there is your investment. Hopefully, if you believe, you could do it but knowing gambling, you should expect the unexpected.
7789  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: November 06, 2017, 03:45:29 AM
technology is good, because it's development and they simplify our lives....but simplify life for what?...in my opinion, to allow us more immersed in relationships, in self-development, in recognizing ourselves...but in the end we generally ceased to think about our inner world...people in the majority became stale and uninteresting and it's sad


Right now, it has made it easier to contact with other people abroad or just people that are far from us. The side effect of that is that even people are close to each other, they would only prefer online because of the convenience, or probably they just don't want to meet them in person. It is unfortunate because the connection should be made with intimacy, not a screen to come between.
7790  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Patience and Holding on: November 06, 2017, 03:41:13 AM
That's okay, there's a lot more opportunities, at least you have learned from your experience in trading. Next time you know what to do. We do not really know when the price of bitcoin increases or decreases. so you should not regret what you did, just get back to the next.
1 BTC = $7500 is really an attractive figure . Most of the investors already holding bitcoin for a long, may be when the price of bitcoin was trading below 2000$. But i think bitcoin still has to cover more and more high levels. Therefore it is too much important to remain as patient and calm. We should continue holding our bitcoin for some more time. Those who already sold their bitcoins they are now regretting and still trying again to buy even in such a high price, because still the investors are too much confident  and sure about the price of bitcoin that it will continue increasing and may be very soon we even cross 10000$ before ending 2017.
During the times it was only around $1000, people thought that it already has a large value considering the gold reserve, the price of it but now it has really surprised and still continuing in rising and more and more people are attracted to it. It's hard to not notice knowing that the price is so high. People think it's just a bubble, it is probably but it is different with other things because it has always been like that in the crypto world.

I'm quite interested in this but I'm concerned that it will be really expensive. Do you also cater to research papers, probably in related literature part. In relation to renewable energy sources with photovoltaic devices. Something related to that.
7793  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: November 05, 2017, 01:35:28 AM
i think research in papers is not value if we can not apply in the life. In my country have a lot research in papers but in fact it is not able apply and sometime i dont understand why do we have to do it?
Research is needed because we need to discover different materials that can provide better efficiency. It's hard to apply because it's just the start of it but if has promising outcomes, it could be applied just like any other research before them. For example the oled tv displays are just research back in time and it has provided the brand's with better efficiency and colour.
7794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you like slot games ? on: November 04, 2017, 11:59:16 AM
Slot games for me are rigged too much. I read somewhere that the casino edge there is 5 - 20% I think. I think that's true because the chances of you winning there are slim. It's okay to experience but for the long run, the edge would just eat your profits there. That's just my experience and opinion.
7795  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: November 04, 2017, 11:51:32 AM
In this technological era, some advancements have potential to make our world cleaner and greener. Do you think that it is possible? That people would start doing it in their own little ways that they can eventually have an impact on our environment?

Lots of scientific studies are out there being researched and developed, for example, the artificial photosynthesis. It's where you make a plastic coating of some sorts that will get CO2 or something and make cleaner air. That's where it's going to boom when it's practical to make for everyone to use.

Do you believe that the research papers now can have an impact? Cite examples and do you think that it's possible?

If we are talking about renewable energy, the best and the most efficient is to use the power of the sun. If we can just run cars using solar power and run factories using this energy then pollutants such as smoke belching from cars will be taken care of.  The world must ban the use of plastics and cellophane and if not must make some new technology to reduce garbage without releasing pollutants to air, land and water.

Those energy that are generated from natural resources which are renewable are tides,wind,heat from the sun,rain and geothermal energy.All of this have some impact on the environment.
What do you mean by impact in the environment? It does help in the conserving of the non-renewable energy sources that we have like coal. We need to provide alternative methods and support the new research that are coming from the academe or not. It's definitely the right mindset that we all need to have.
7796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: November 04, 2017, 11:46:22 AM
Yes you have only two choices its either you lose or you win. But if you lack skills and knowledge about that certain gambling you will lose a lot. So it is better for you to gamble if you the skills to win every game so that you can gain more profit.
To be honest, not much gamlers have more win than lose. Even with gamblers have more win than lose , their profit still was minus. Because the amount on bet of them are not the same. Usually big lose and small win. So the most important thing in gambling is win big and lose small.

I agree. I don't see the reasoning behind many gamblers who still prefer to risk their hard earned money even when they're not getting good results. You're right that for most gamblers, the ratio of win/loss isn't even 50/50. Losing is more likely to happen to someone than winning
Maybe they are the thpe of people who prefer to see the positive side in everything and not care at all with their current situation. It might not be the best position for people but it is surely that we all want to win. The 50/50 part is only for half chance, it depends on how hard or high risk your bet is.
7797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: November 04, 2017, 11:42:28 AM
Well, the main reason for me to getting into Gambling is to get profit out of it.
we are trying our luck in that and the moment we win we enjoy it...

Gambling is all about the profit that is why i don't understand those that justify their gambling losses as having fun. The house is there to make profit from your pocket and so i don't see why you should be there  for another reason.

Some people actually have fun when they gamble man, no need to be so harsh. Some people really don't care too much about money you know, and as such they can lose a few hundred $ and then be done with it and call it a good night. I've been there, done that without a thought of making profits. This is mainly when you go to a physical casino though, not online..
Yes you are right, there are many different types of Gamblers some of them who gamble just for the sake of fun and they never care about the money lost or won. As far as I am considered I list myself as a fun seeking Gambler.

This is the only reason that I am practicing Gambling since a very long time but I haven't fall prey to the addiction. No matter whether you are a fun seeking Gambler a profit seeking Gambler you are always at a risk to lose your capital.
Those are probably the people who have a lot of money that they don't care too much on the money they lost. But some of them are also probably smart planners. I don't know as long as you are doing the things that you want without regret, then it's okay. If you have an extra, why not? Don't lose everything in one go.
7798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best way to quit gambling and start trading?? on: November 04, 2017, 11:38:21 AM
In the past i also is like that, I know if trading is the best and safest way to double the money, but the knowledge I have about trading is still very minimal, so I decided to continue to gamble. But after I was frustrated because it had swallowed a lot of losses, and then in slowly I can reduce my efforts to gamble and start trading also with slowly as well. Now I'm not dependent on gambling, I can trade patiently to get a good profit.
It is good to know that you at least consider trading a better option than gambling and this is the reality also.A trader can make good profits by using his skills and improving it with time while a gambler has no such option. Trading is a lot better field than gambling.

It is not very difficult also. If you will try out this with small amount, you will grasp the idea very quickly. It is all about patience and making right decision at right time.

Yeah,trading is the better option because we can earn money in trading using our skills but in gambling only luck decide win and loss.So its better to understand that gambling is not a way to earn money.So you can start trading with the investment,initially try to do small trades with small profits once you become an expert then you can enjoy more profits.But being a succesful trader need good skills so you need to improve your skills for more successful in the trading sector.

Well that's not going to be easy especially for people who enjoy gambling. Trading may prove to be a bit boring and doesn't attract that much interest unless you're already into it. The transition betweem gambling to trading would be the hardest part of it. If a person can successfully transfer interest between gambling to trading, then good for him
If you enjoy gambling then probably you won't quit it. Maybe add trading as one of your assets to bring you more possible income if you have made the right decisions and right strategies. I hope that he or she could balance it. With the right amount of gambling and trading side by side.
7799  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport Do u Like to Bet? on: November 03, 2017, 05:17:24 AM
My favourite sport to bet on is football (soccer) which I bet on very regularly. Occasionally I bet on horse racing but only during the big UK meets really.
Those sports is what I think the most bet on, and that's how people are likely to want. Not even on sportsbooks but with just their peers that they try to bet on. It's fun to watch and see that your bet is going to work out, but if you lose, that's just really sad, you can just make it up for the next bet.
7800  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any tricks available in gambling to won the bet? on: November 03, 2017, 03:31:09 AM
I don't think such things exist unless you are a hacker and can hack anything or something. Online casinos and also land-based casinos have protection against cheaters that want to cheat the game. I don't know if there bugs that could be exploited but, who knows. It might be something like being able to get free money in the thin air, and that doesn't really exist, and if there is, it's probably illegal.
