Will you leave gambling if your future wife/husband tells you to do this ?

I was so pissed to a point that I thought ISLM marketing was turning to daily spam, my twitter, my instagram and facebook, they literally occupied everywhere but look at their price today, they seems like the usuall ICO token that promises heaven and earth in another life but when you look deeply, they are just another typical ERC-20 usual token that are launch everyday on Ethereum and BSC.

It seems there has also been a lawsuit that was file a week ago by Dubai virtual asset regulatory that they don't know and don't have any relationship with ISLM. It seems that the teams were using Dubai residents and prominents people to push the token for marketing before the launch and trading which was misleading because that is impersonation that could even bring down the project in the future if the team were to be investigated, no wonder the price has been crashing.

In addition, the token is basically listed on 4 exchange, $2M volume with a fully dilluted valuation of $4B, if tokens were to be unluck, I doubt if the two exchanges are going to able to handle that supply, the price will further slide down.

I was in argument with someone. His view is that people who gamble are those that what they have is not sufficient for them and so they try to make more money from gambling. He said if you have sufficient money to take care of your needs that you won't think of gambling. He made reference to some rich people, who don't gamble because they have sufficient money to even gift to charity but that those rich who still gamble are only addicted to it not just because of the money. Therefore, that the percentage of the rich gambling is very small compared to those in middle class and lower class.

So my question is, is the percentage of the rich gambling lower than the middle and lower class?

I don't think anyone is doubting Wembanyama's ability, he's got everything that is needed to thrive in the league, I believe what most people are saying, at least speaking for myself is that we can't expect a Jokic or Giannis-esque from him right from his first season, he's got a lot of potentials but it's not going to be a day work, Giannis and Jokic aren't were they are today by their first season.

I hope so. The less Grayson Allen I see on the court the better. He has no business being in the NBA with his dirty play style and I hate seeing him on my home team.

Just a few more days until the season kicks off now. I can tell you that I will for sure be spending Tuesday night watching the guys on TNT kick off another year of NBA basketball.

Today I witness something very strange in the area where I live recently. There was a gambling shop that was not too far from where I am staying, so every day different gamblers visit the shop to bet on games, some win and some don't win a dime.

So, yesterday afternoon, a man bet on a midnight game and the game played accordingly as predicted, but the surprising thing was that the betting agent ran away with the money the man won, and the betting agent is no where to be found.

However, I am here to say these are the reasons why it is not always good to gamble in a betting agent's shop, because if the manager of the shop does not run with the money a gambler wins, then one of the workers in the betting shop might run away with the money someone wins, so I do conclude that an online gambling site with good reputation is the best for gambler, so what do you guys have to say about this?.

A single season of bad performance in the playoffs is usually not a ground for a team to trade or let go of someone they believe is a potential. There should be something not told in public by the Warriors' management. Or it could be that they saw CP3 as a golden opportunity more than Poole hence the trade.

Fans are divided on the trade but it is what it is. This is a blessing in disguise for Poole to show what he is as a player since the Wizards do not have a superstar. We'll find out soon if he is a superstar potential or just a support type of player. 

With the current structure of Conferences and Divisions adding teams would only happen if they could add 8 teams all at once and go to 18-game regular season.  I imagine there have been talks to do just that, and adding teams from other countries would only make sense.  Canada, Mexico, England, and Germany would all make good markets for the NFL in my opinion.

I still can't believe that we are already at the start of the 2023-24 NBA season.  When the notification popped up on my TV showing that the Bucks were facing off against my Bulls, I was just shocked at how quickly the offseason went.

I can't wait to see how well Wembanyama does in the NBA.  He's super skinny so I hope to see him gain some weight.  He can still be great and all (look at Kevin Durant), but some weight would certainly help his game when he's crashing the boards with big men down low.

Cross addiction is as worst as the main addiction you are trying to quit and it is a terrible idea. But what is cross addiction?

So a friend told me that a mutual friend tried to replace his gambling addiction with another another one because he has tried all everything else. The new addiction is PS4. He pays for extra on the game and he is getting more and more into it. According to my friend, this mutual friend feels that paying $20 per month its subscription is better than $100- $500 on slots where he ends up losing.

Well I told him that this is basically cross addiction and what that mutual friend is trying to do is like running away from the truth. Not wanting to face the core issue. So he is justify spending $20 and not on slots when both are unhealthy addictions that can have far reaching consequences. He just has to sit and face his addiction head on without looking for a replacement addiction which is just as bad.

Ever heard of cross addiction or suffered from it?
What do you think?

Today, my narrative takes an exhilarating turn with the introduction of the $Opium meme token. This latest addition to my crypto portfolio radiates innovation and promises to inject fresh life into the meme coin universe. Just as with $PEPE, $CAL, and $SAFERUM, $Opium is not merely a senseless creation; it realize the spirit of a movement, a community-driven endeavor with untapped potential.

Now, I'm on a new adventure with the $Opium meme token. It's the latest coin I added to my crypto collection, and it's looking like it could be the next big thing in the world of meme coins. Just like with $PEPE, $CAL, and $SAFERUM, I see potential in $Opium that goes beyond just being a joke.


Meme tokens started as funny internet stuff, but they are turning into serious business with real communities behind them. $Opium, with its cool idea and excited supporters, seems like it's going to be a standout meme token. It's more than just a joke; it's a movement.

I want to pose a question that I believe is quite expensive for many of us here, and it's a dilemma most of us can relate to. We all know that gambling is a game where we put our luck to the test. However, there's a crucial moment in every gambler's journey. the moment when you hit that big win. Do you cash out and savor your victory, or do you continue playing in hopes of even bigger winnings?

I've often wondered how many of us can truly stop playing when we are ahead. It's a challenge because the allure of winning more can be irresistible. I've witnessed situations where a friend deposited money into a casino, faced losses, and just when he was on the brink of frustration, he struck a significant win. Did he stop playing? No, he left his winnings in the casino, only to lose it all again.
So, I ask you all, what would you do when you finally make that big win? Would you cash out immediately to enjoy your winnings, or would you keep playing in the hopes of an even more substantial prize?

He doesn't have the skill. What Manny Pacman had during his teen life was just boxing which he put all his hopes into. This allegedly son of his is not near to what Pacman can do during his amateur days. It's all on YouTube, he managed to KO older than him while he was a teen. Most boxers who tend to become the greatest are like Mike Tyson who rose from poverty. Pacman did the same. Most of them came from poor beginnings. 

Still, I doubt this rematch 2 will happen unless they are really paid in huge amount of money they can't refuse. This could be needed for the people to look into boxing and not the wars we see today.

Not a good sign that LeBron is already having nightmares and the season hasn’t even started yet. While I do think he’ll have a good season and add to his records, to me the team he’s running with just doesn’t seem good enough to win a title. For that, I think they really needed to be the winners of the Damian Lillard sweepstakes.

That's the price of moving the market into the mainstream, whether it's an artist being represented by an agent or gallery, any major auction house and even retail establishments, there will be added costs, the alternative is to sell items oneself ie on BTF, or just peel and destroy the artefacts, my decision was to go down the major auction house route with the increased exposure that their marketing, clout and collectors base will bring.
