This is one  of the reasons why  merchants   do have hindrance on  switching  bitcoin  as  a payment on their  goods and services and thats  because of   price volatility and also  some merchants  on other countries doesnt even heard  about bitcoin at all thats  why  bitcoins adoption on  merchants  is slowly progressing. Well maybe in future when bitcoin adoption  increases  and also the price would increase for sure  it would increase the  sum of merchants would  accept bitcoin as a payment.

Strongly  agreed with your statement, people would surely love  to use  fiat money than spending  bitcoin on their pockets  and also paper currency is being used  since in the  beginning of time even how bitcoin would be succesful  in the future  theres no possibility that it would replace  paper currency anytime soon. Bitcoin does also depend  on  paper currency  value , if  fiat would be useless then bitcoin would also be useless too.

Exactly, and we have the same  situation  since i dont usually count off my  profits  and losses when i do trading , agree there are mix situation which sometimes you forget to tally but for me  i dont mind at all as long  i saw that my money grows somehow when im trading and thats the important thing. With  my trading pattern  i do usually sustain my money and  manage stress when im in the  middle of a decision between selling and  buying ,

You are right having a strong self control would bee needed when we intend to play gambling so that we cant be easily overcome by our emotions especially when we are experiencing  lossing  streaks or  huge amount loss already.  We could possibly lose all of our money in playing gambling as  much as we have money and we keep  playing  for longer times and for sure your money would  be gone in an instant without your awareness.

You have a point though, even OP created this thread for long time ago but still it would be useful for  new members since its better to read this  old threads rather than posting a new topic with the same  question at all. Its all the same no matter how OP had  improved or he already knows the way on earning money here in bitcointalk then its a good thing.  Making  money in bitcointalk  is easy especially jsut participating on signature campaigns which is  the most common way  but  not only that  you could also  sell your skills/ services to other which you could also  do  decent amounts with it.

Gambling is  good only for  entertainment purposes which you treat your self sometimes with leisure after a long day of hard work or any thing that you do but  its not advisable to play long enough and  staying on it for how many hours, just like what you said house edge do catch them before they cash out which is very true when you are playing gambling.  Gambling would  be wrong if you are already got addicted into it  and  you are already compromising your money and your family.

Agree, saving  up much bitcoin would be a good thing  for future investments and  future profits but  we cant really avoided to spend  some amounts  on our savings since we need to pay or use it on  our bills and other expenses but we must limit our spending  so that we could able to save more  bitcoins.  Same as yours  im using my bitcoin to pay bills, load my mobile  and  purchasing  game credits  which is  available on my local wallet services they offered.

I do admit that sometimes  doing these things just to earn bitcoin  is  a little bit boring since you just keep doing  the same thing again and again  but i wont  mind those tiring  times, i usually put  up to my mind that im earning money and just like doing a regular day job which somehow motivate me to keep going without any trouble. Sometimes  when i experience  of little bit sleepy while im doing my job  , i do play a music so that i can continue on my work.

Well its depends on what girlfriend do you have since women nowadays  do differ in anyways  like on  their  interest on such thing. If you intend to  tell her  about bitcoin from the start and you saw that  shes quite interested then  you might able to convince her to bitcoin world without any  difficulty but  there are some girls that when you try to explain to her or show  about  bitcoin then  she refused on the first try then better to leave it since those kind of girls dont want  complicated things.

Exactly, signature campaigns  are just the most common way to earn here since most of people  do participate to earn money without  any skills  needed just a pure post with understandable english grammar and must be constructive. Same as they said  there are lots of ways to earn bitcoin in these forum not only in sig camps   but also  you could sell your skills and  you could also  sell digital stuffs as you want. Just try to go in services section and you would find  what would suits you.

SO this is the last day of ICONOMI signature campaign. By the way its a very good campaign with a very good  manager. Thanks  yahoo for handling this campaign. Hope could  join one of your  handled campaigns in the future.

Is there any slots for full members? As ive read on the  queue  i would like to participate on this campaign. I would be happy if i would be given a chance.

Same here, if bitcoin price would go high its price like that then i would for sure buy a gaming pc on my own bitcoin . The big question here is when it would reach on to that price point since we are just staying stable  at $600+ price as of now. Well that time would surely come. We must extent our patience afterall.

Cloud mining  would not  give you any assurance and they are just total scams and  you didnt even  to reach your roi and they would ran away. Thats why i didnt trust those  kind of schemes because  it would  waste your money indeed.  Theres a lot of ways to earn here in bitcointalk forum which you could sell off your  skills and  stuffs and also  there are micro earning jobs here just try to research.

Faucets are good  for newbies not  on the income generated but  on the knowledge  that it gives  when you  are just starting on bitcoin world.  Old members suggest it  not directly pointing  on the  money but on the knowledge but  0.5 btc in   faucets would  be too long  maybe 1 year or even more i guess. lol

Previously years  there are signature campaigns does  have accept newbies but  that rank was being abused which you could easily create an account  in the intention of  participating on signature campaigns which  they dont even  mind on their post quality which results into spam and  campaigns doesnt tolerate such act thats why  they  cut off  it and   they increased their rank requirement.

In the word  market price  which means theres a relation between buyers and sellers and   we should expect theres a movement. As you said  satoshi didnt even left a message  that it would  go up or down. It  always depends  on people  who bought and  who sell. Inflation and deflation is a normal thing on bitcoin, as we saw on the stable price maybe theres no people who bought and who sell.

For me its not a manipulation because all of us bitcoin holders does affect it especially to those  huge amount holders. Price does depends on the supply and demand. I dont think theres a manipulation which someone could able to control it. If it does then  bitcoin is not decentralized at all.
