I don't think so, based on the terms it seem successful gambler is someone who's making money through gambling while an addict is someone who's keep losing his money including the money that should be used for food, bill, monthly need etc.

A successful gambler should have spend a lot time in gambling similar like an addict, but the result between both of them are completely different.

I think it can also be an advantage to have a game like that very early. They don't have anything to lose and they can find out what their own condition is. If they lose that game big time, nobody will really care that much and they would rather play against Manchester City on the first day of the season than on the last day of the season when it might be a decisive game in the fight for the safe ranks in the table.

Can't wait to see how the game between Chelsea and Arsenal will end. It could end in a horrible start for one of the teams, but a draw would also be disappointing although I guess both teams would be ok with it after the results of last season.
Usually early and end of season are unpredictable, playing with new teammates and not really warmed up can be a reason of why early season is unpredictable. While the end of season, when a team already secure their position with big margin, they will play with their second layer or not really serious.

Arsenal should be win against Chelsea, recent with of Community Shield trophy should bump their mental and motivation.

PayPal itself is one of worse company, they have a buggy website, tend to freeze someone else money for few weeks or months and they charge quite high fee.

This PayPal stable coin is obviously want to compete against USDT, they launch it ASAP in order to gain more attention before there's a country officially launch their own CBDC. More and more crypto adoption isn't looking good due to this centralization.

First and foremost, gambling is always depend on luck.
Second, the additional withdrawal fee, the commission odds, the rules e.g. wager amount to force you to gamble more.
Third, you're just not good in sport.

That's why most of bettors always lose, even though many people say it's a skill based game, but it's still not enough to give a higher guarantee the gambler will win and beat the house.

1. Not every Bitcoin holders want to link their coins with centralized site especially the Bitcoin maximalist. Maybe 70-80% coins would be controlled by the government, but the other 20-30% are still free in decentralized exchange or P2P.

2. Are you a god so you can make sure Bitcoin price is always stay at $30K? the last Bitcoin ATH was $69K.

Both of your scenarios wouldn't work, I'm not choosing any of them because the government's adoption toward Bitcoin will make it more centralized, we can still trade Bitcoin without third party and there's no guarantee the price will went up to 1000x times.

No one is showing anyone anything, I've never done that, but people will someday notice, especially if you grow up in such area where they know that you are struggling and later your body changed, you look better and you have a ride, which you never had before, of cos people will notice, this ain't even the case for me, they came asking what they can do to make a change, I told them about Bitcoin investment, and Bitcoin mining, but along the line they can't cope with it, because it's not free, you need money to invest, and it's same with mining too.
I'm not really sure the condition in your area where you live and your neighbor, but I'm the one who's not show anything and it seems everyone including my friend, my neighbor, my family etc don't know what I doing and what I have.

I can afford to buy expensive thing, but I choose to not buy it and invest in Bitcoin, where no one will know about my wealth.

In my area, owning a motorcycle is normal. Right now I only have an old motorcycle, while my neighbor have 2 sporty motorcycles, a car, a business, etc where it make me look become the poorest among them.

Bayern Munich tried everything to sign Harry Kane and came very close but couldn't finish the deal. I think it's time for Harry Kane to take the initiative and make it clear that he wants to transfer to Bayern Munich. Tottenham are prolonging the negotiations for him, but in the meantime Bayern Munich might get discouraged. This is starting to drag on for too long. I think Harry Kane should be the one to put an end to it. The moment he says I want to go to Bayern Munich or the moment he says I want to stay at Tottenham, the transfer rumors are over.
Bayern Munich already give what Tottenham's want, they bid €110 Million for Harry Kane. If this transfer isn't successfully achieved, it's mean Harry Kane already choose to not want to get any trophy and looking for popularity because he will be known as a top player who's carrying his club for ten years and still counting.

Maybe he worried if he will become the next Sadio Mane where he can perform in Liverpool and ended up awful in Bayern Munich.

The meaning of "money you can lose gambling" is money that you use to gamble and if that money is lost at the gambling table, you will be okay and have no problem with losing it. So if some people can afford to lose $100-$1k, they can afford to lose that much money and maybe they'll still return to the casino another day. As long as that person can still be wise in using their money, it won't be a problem because they must have thought before using their money. We should only use the money we can afford not to be too disappointed and sad.
It's correct, but we shouldn't like saying if gambling is only burn your money and don't be sad for that. Everyone will sad if they lose their money, but the beauty of gambling is for entertain. When we logged our account and bet the money we can afford to lose, we should feel happy during that time regardless what the result is. If we're not able to feel happy, then it's right to say we're not used to be a gambler.
869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anonymity is no longer a benefit of gambling with cryptocurrency. on: August 05, 2023, 10:23:10 AM
Most of people don't care about anonymity, but they're care with the risk of their life.

When you gamble in online casino and submit your KYC, only the team behind casino know your face, your location, your wealth etc.

But if you gamble in offline casino, you need to reveal your identity, other gamblers will know your face, they will pay attention with your car, how much you bet, your friend, your body etc. Which make many people aren't comfortable.

It's mean those people are better than you because they can compete against the locals, if you think earning €700 isn't enough, what about them?

You need to improve your skill in this competitive world, you can't just sit down, scrolling TikTok and wish something miracle you will get promoted to earn higher wage. There's no one should be blame, the strong people will win and the weak people will lose, that's a nature.

Alright so your problem is you've make a good amount of money, when you tell them how you make it, they're not showing any interest, correct?

You have 2 solutions:
1. Never show your wealth, just stay low and dress up like low income class people.
2. Tell them and forget it, you must not expect they will follow your path because they're just curious.
872  Economy / Economics / Re: What's the effect of having plenty children to the national economy of a country on: August 04, 2023, 07:08:05 AM
You should know that going to school does not necessarily mean education. There are many old people in my country that do not go to school but later make it in life and they are educated in the work they are doing without going to school.
That's correct, educated and skilled are different, what most people doing are school and not learn anything. While skilled people are needed for jobs and that make them have higher chance to eligible with the job criterias.

No citizen is a waste or cannot be useful to the country. There is always a hole that can be filled by someone, no matter how ineffective people believe they are. It is a nasty word to call a human being rubbish for their country since they can do and undo just as the educated can do and undo in their own part and experience.
Yeah any citizen can be useful for the country, poor people will eat trash since they don't have any money, this will make them sick and cause serious illness, that force them come to hospital. As we're know you're need money to pay the hospital bills, you're poor and you want to be cured, this will force you to give your money to them and make you become more poor.

He is the second front-line player that Paris Saint Germain has sign after Marco Asensio in a transfer this summer
After Ousmane Dembele officially joins, does that mean Paris Saint Germain's chance to get Goncalo Ramos will fail? Previously it was report that Paris Saint Germain were interested in bring in the Benfica striker, several offers were made and the last they prepare an offer worth 65-80 million euros to bring Goncalo Ramos to Paris.
It will happen if Mbappe and Neymar are leaving PSG, Mbappe will high likely leave sooner or later, so Dembele will replace him. But I don't really know about Neymar, this player seems can't compete in top league anymore, I believe he will join Saudi Pro League since he's more interested in money.

However we shouldn't forget with the rumor of Vlahovic to PSG.

The more you gamble, the more money you will lose. So if you want to talk about gambling and investing, both of them are contradicts each other.

Even you're won $600K in lottery, you want to start to create your own business or invest your money, it's not always success and you will make money as fast as you lose money through gambling.

1. There's no relation between wallet and the transaction speed, but choosing a good wallet which wouldn't charge you additional fee and given you a choice to bump your fee are indirectly affect the transaction speed.

2. Bitcoin is POW coin, not POS. There are many sites offer staking option for Bitcoin, but it's scam.

3. Bitcoin Core, Electrum or Bluewallet.

Arsenal hasn't impressive performance in pre season match, but couldn't be comparison because difference level between pre season and FA Community Shield match, based on your prediction who will get first tittle in this season "Arsenal or Manchester City"
Manchester City always been a counter for Arsenal because Arsenal never won against Manchester City in the last season. Since Arsenal is still build their squad, so I expect this will be an easy win for Manchester City.

This will be a good test for Rice if he's really worth for $100 Million Euros or not, he must able to stop Haaland.

I predict the score will be 3-1 favor on Manchester City.

1. Maybe
2. Nope, if the bank is operated poorly, how it's possible you can get a loan through Bitcoin or crypto? Bitcoin or crypto aren't an institutions who will give you money.
3. Not really, Bitcoin transaction is still expensive if you want to pay something cheap, while cash or mobile banking will cost you nothing.
4. and 6. You're contradicts yourself, if Bitcoin give you anonymity, how it's possible you can track the fraudulent activity?
5. Correct as long as you hold it on cold storage.

I am not so sure why Rasmus Hojlund is tagged the second Erling Haaland, maybe it’s because of his statue and physic. Looking at the stats of both players there is a huge gap between them, I really hope Manchester United have not made a big mistake and gambled with this player because it will be disastrous if that is the case, hopefully they have finally found their man this time.
This guy is overrated, still remember how the crowd when Manchester United were signing Maguire and Sancho? one is perform like 20-30 Million Euros player while the another one is a nightmare for the team. Hojlund is playing for Atalanta and now Atalanta isn't a champion, it was different with Haaland where he carried Dortmund in every matches. Haaland is similar like Grealish when he was playing for Aston Villa.

When it's related to gift card, you must trade with highly reputable and trusted seller. So you will be safe and save some money because you don't need to pay escrow service. Using escrow service when you trade something that easily could be reversible would just cause a drama.

Also you shouldn't trade big amount of money for gift card.

Demo accounts are useful because they allow beginners to experiment without putting their own money at risk. You are right, though, that they do have some restrictions. Since there is no risk of losing money in a practice mode, you wont feel the same range of emotions that you would with a real money account.
But I feel like demo mode and real mode are different.

When you gamble using demo mode, you tend to win and make profit. This will give you an impression where gambling is really easy to make money like when you gamble in demo mode.

But when you try to make deposit and gamble on real mode, most of the times you're only lose and keep losing.
