Gambling is a game that has an addictive effect. Most people who have joined gambling sites will find it difficult to get out of the gambling circle. It doesn't matter how much you lose at gambling, as long as we still have money, we will continue to gamble

Can you share your first experience playing gambling? and who told you about gambling sites?

I myself know gambling sites from my own friends. I idly and try to deposit. Starting from playing with a little money, after a while I didn't know how much money I had spent playing gambling

when i was still in college, i had 5 friends and we often did things together (even went to a nightclub together), i remember that at this time there was a big football event and i was interested in joining them to place a bet and luckily we won, since then i gambled a lot, but communication we have been cut off, some have moved to other cities.

Often the information we get comes from word of "mouth to mouth" and i'm sure the majority of gambling players currently get information about gambling from their friends too.

At the moment i think this would also be very illogical to happen, seeing how long it took bitcoin to reach its current state makes me more confident that its value will always grow in time. time.
Some of the fiction stories that I've seen on many movies talk about the future life of people in war, or natural disasters,... and it's also very unlikely to happen like a tragedy right now disaster with the economy causing things like bitcoin to lose the status it created.
natural disasters and wars in the future might happen and there are even some rumors that say there will be an internet apocalypse in the next few years, even so bitcoin will not be erased in the minds of millions of people, even though the internet doesn't exist, we can still transact bitcoin with systems such as SMS.

the volatility of the bitcoin price is its nature, no one will be able to change that but for bitcoins to have no value is impossible, people will not let that happen, they will continue to buy and sell bitcoins.
923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Thoughts On First Time Lottery Bettor Who Won Big Amount? on: July 15, 2023, 08:19:12 PM
Lottery here in our country is being run by our government and the majority of the citizen in our country are lottery bettors for many years, I personally know people who are betting for ten or more years but they still have not hit the jackpot I wonder what these people think or if you're a lottery bettor for many years and you read that one first time bettor hit a huge jackpot in a lottery.

Will you feel envious? Ok with it? or motivated?

Filipino first-time bettor wins 15 million Dirhams in Dubai lottery
i was very excited when i heard that someone won a big prize in the lottery, it was truly once-in-a-lifetime luck...

In my country too, there are many lottery bettors who have even been lottery bettors for decades but have never won the jackpot, the lottery has become the hope of many people who might be able to change their lives 180 degrees in 1 night, with those expectations that have kept them going for so many years. 

i don't do lotto very often, i'm a bit of a fad and only place a few times in 1 month, maybe one day i will win big prize, that's really my dream lol.
924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: July 15, 2023, 07:58:32 PM
It's easy to say and its to do it, some people want to quitting gambling in some point they win already a large amount that copes all their losses and another is keep hoping that they will make a profit the same with the option one but does not as they wish but seems impossible to happen which is not always as happen. If you can stop playing gambling and have a control to your self that you wasted a lot of opportunities and assets and even life balance ideal to quit. But if you are a rich person have a good cash flow seems playing will be just a cents to you. All depends on the person and it's status.
i am interested in your sentence that i put in bold.  have you never heard of a rich man falling into poverty overnight at the gambling table?

Becoming a gambling addict is a nightmare for many people.  Those who are infected with the virus instantly turn into someone who doesn't care about anything, not even their family, their minds are filled with the ambition to win.  It's not easy to cure gambling addicts, many cases happened.  So before you turn into a gambling addict, you must first understand your real goal of gambling, if it's only to chase money then you make a big mistake, you will never win it, you should immediately stop or reduce the intensity of your gambling.

do you follow their twitter account, guys https://twitter.com/kingpynboxing/status/1680299154801672193?  in my opinion kingpyn is not a boxing, it's just entertainment that is deliberately made for influencers to get more attention from fans.

i quite like boxing but i will not bet my money on kingpyn boxing, they are not natural boxers, they are just influencers, for me the end result that is created in every kingpyn fight that happens will not be much different from WWE (it's already set).  once again, don't bet your money on things you don't know or just an entertainment event.
926  Economy / Economics / Re: Fast Transportation Makes Economic Turnover Faster on: July 15, 2023, 07:09:34 PM
It can be said that the main key to making the economy move faster is the support of transportation and infrastructure, China is a successful example that can become a world economic power because the government is very serious about building a transportation system.
China is really very aggressive in developing fast transportation, they even spend big money to develop it, the Xin Jinping government claims that with the speed of transportation, their economy will move strong (they want to dominate the world economy).  There are also those who speculate about China targeting many wharves of other countries so that goods originating from their countries can be quickly distributed to destination countries or to their own countries because wharves are the main key to the distribution of goods originating from China and going to China.
927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin according to Satoshi is digital money then why call it investment. on: July 14, 2023, 07:00:05 PM
why is bitcoin called the currency of the future because you are free to classify bitcoin according to your needs, if you want to make bitcoin an investment then you just have to buy it now and then hold it for the next few years or until you reach the price you want or if you want being bitcoin as a legal means of payment, you just have to find the seller of the goods you need then negotiate payment via bitcoin with that person, bitcoin is really extraordinary, easy or difficult to understand it depends on each individual.
928  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You must do this if you want to QUIT or NOT on: July 14, 2023, 06:30:01 PM
What you said op is correct about the opinions you mentioned, but as others have said, that is not easy to do especially if a gambler has been playing in a casino for a long time. Because of course they are used to that routine gambling, so what will happen is that they will have an adjustment time for the routine they are used to. But when they are also used to that, for sure that will improve the situation of what they will do as a responsible gambler for sure in the end.
i also think so, it is almost impossible to change the habits of someone who gambles very often, especially if the person is able to manage his gambling properly (people are easy to talk about but in fact making drastic changes is very difficult)

This reason is what makes me prefer the invitation to encourage a heavy gambler to be more responsible for the gambling he is doing, self-control and not having big ambitions in gambling is one example of responsible gambling. There is no point in pursuing victory at gambling, but in fact it is make things difficult for yourself.
929  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: July 14, 2023, 05:29:56 AM
Well, So far PSG has not managed the riches of the clubside well; with Messi off to USA; Neymar about to leave and Mbappe flirting with Real Madrid, it has exposed PSG spending because the squad is an average one and the new coach now have an uphill task to do. Will PSG be able to rebuild their squad?
i am grateful that the PSG owners have learned from their failure last season, they have kept the 3 most expensive strikers in the world but have not been able to win the UCL trophy, rebuilding the team is the best decision that must be made.  PSG with their stable financial strength should be able to focus more on young players who are not strong enough to give the team victory.

anyway, i see that the steps of the PSG management are very extreme, it is reported that there are many players who feel threatened by the club, even Donnarumma is rumored to be leaving PSG.
930  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 13, 2023, 04:35:53 PM
I don’t think the Saudi league would always be a circus show. Admittedly, it’s not as competitive as the premier league and perhaps it may never be but that doesn’t mean it’s not competitive with no sports values. Yeah, big and popular players from other leagues probably move over there during the final moments of their careers or to earn some more money. The arrival of those big players would increase the fan base of those clubs and bring in more people willing to watch and talk about those games. We’re talking about them right now lol.
It will probably never be as competitive or as watched as the premier league and other top leagues, but they’re slowly building their fan base as well as their audience.
world football audiences are currently trying hard to adapt to the saudi arabia league because there are many big names who have moved there, as al nassr said when buying cristiano ronaldo, their main target is not the champion but the world spotlight, saudi arabia league since buying many of the world's top players, getting extraordinary attention from the fans, the Arab league audience skyrocketed quickly but the prestige of the leagues in Europe can never be matched, it has stuck in the ears of many people that clubs from leagues in Europe are far more attractive than on other continents.
931  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 10, 2023, 06:35:00 PM
With Barcelona's current limitations and financial problems it seems they are only looking for players who are ready to make a big contribution even though they are no longer young, this is not a long-term projection but for team stability in the near future a player like this is really needed.
Since Xavi's return to Barcelona as coach I've always had faith in his signings and it's been proven.
Oriol Romeu is a consistent player and maybe Xavi knows that this player suits the style of play Xavi has adopted for the Barcelona team.
This is a list of players who entered Barcelona in the transfer market this season;

Quote
Enter

Inigo Martinez - Athletic Bilbao (Free)
Ilkay Gundogan-Manchester City (Free)
Abde Ezzalzouli - Osasuna
Sergino Dest - AC Milan
Samuel Umtiti-Lecce
Alex Collado - Elche
Nico Gonzalez - Valencia
Trincao - Sporting Lisbon
Clement Lenglet-Tottenham
Antoine Griezmann-Atlético Madrid

from here it can be seen that Xavi is trying hard to reduce club expenses by only buying a few players who are not too expensive, to be honest this is really good so that the team's finances remain stable especially last season Barcelona failed to become UCL and UEL champions so their income was not that much.  i quite praise Barcelona's performance while in Xavi's hands, he really knows what to do, Xavi slowly but surely becomes a very brilliant coach.

Indeed, De Gea is not bad, he is still capable of another 2 to 3 years. I think Ten Hag just doesn't suit De Gea's playing style. Ten Hag's tendency to build attacks from the goalkeeper made De Gea often panic in possession of the ball. This season has been complete with Maguire making frequent mistakes. With masturbation maybe he wants to minimize it, although I think there is a big difference for the style of play in the EPL and Onana at Inter Milan.
de gea is actually still in a condition that is able to remain a goalkeeper for MU for the next few years but currently ten hag is the head at MU, every decision must be followed by all parties so that the club's main goals are achieved.

i don't really pay attention to Onana who is said to be a suitable replacement for De Gea for MU but Ten Hag must have good judgment so he made a controversial decision like this.  

MU has a target to dominate the EPL again, so big changes must be made to be able to achieve all of that (just look at how Pep Guardiola made big changes when he became coach of Man City)
933  Economy / Economics / Re: I cannot go home if I don't make a lot of money now!! on: July 10, 2023, 05:33:39 PM
when i was kids, i need to study very hard, to get a lot of score in the test. if i got a zero mark in a math test, i am very scare to go home and show the test paper to my mum.

when i am grown up, i have kids and wife now, i need to work very hard, to get a lot of money in the job. if i got a paycut, or i got fired, i am very scared to go home, i can't sleep well, my head is sweating, the memory of getting zero mark in a test keep haunting me like the nightmare, i need to go out and make a lot of money!!

tell me anything i need to do to make a lot of money. doesn't matter what, i would do anything to get all the money, even if it mean unlawful and unethical!
i've heard very good sentences "if you chase the chicken too much then the chicken will run fast but if you give the chicken food, then you will easily catch the chicken", that also applies to money, when you chase money very hard then the money will keep away from you.

besides that when you get a lot of money, it won't guarantee whether you and your family will be happy, therefore from an early age teach your family simplicity so they don't force you to earn money in any way, you have to think about your future too and also them, don't do stupid things for money.

I don't see a bright future for Sadio Mane at Bayern Munich. I think Mane's days are numbered if Harry Kane joins the team. Goal-scoring machine that he is, Kane will likely steal the show from Mane. I doubt Mane would be happy sitting on the bench for an entire season. So, if I were him, I'd begin looking for potential new clients and plotting my escape. Really, though, who wouldn't want that?
i have also seen rumors about this, when Bayern get a goal scoring machine like Harry Kane or something else, they will not prioritize Sadio Mane anymore, apart from that the issue of Mane returning to the EPL is also getting stronger.

until whenever Bayern will no longer be able to dominate the Bundesliga before they get a new goalscoring machine, Bayern must think hard about it so that Tuchel's strategy can work properly. 

anyway bayern released hernandez to PSG, it was a good decision considering his performance at bayern last season.

Until now, there have only been rumors about Manchester United's interest in signing Osimhen, but there has been no official offer so far. I think Osimhen will always dream of being in a much more competitive league and the Premier League is the right answer. At present there is no other team that is often associated with Osimhen apart from Manchester United, but it is true that Manchester United's financial constraints can be a problem when they want to bid for Osimhen. Surely Napoli will wait until that time comes and if manchester united fails to land Osimhen this summer then next season will be more difficult as new competition with other top teams will open up for Osimhen from Napoli.
it's getting more and more exciting, it seems that Manchester United's dream of getting Osimhen's signature is getting smaller, that's all because Napoli are trying hard to defend Osimhen even by paying quite a high price,

Quote
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Victor Osimhen has been offered 100 million euros from PSG.

But the offer was rejected by Napoli. The Partenopei even raised the price to 180 million euros.

Mbappe's sale will further strengthen PSG's budget to meet Napoli's asking price.
[1] article

in my personal opinion, Napoli is too exaggerated with Osimhen, it seems like they (napoli management) doesn't want other team to be able to get Osimhen easily.  see the post above, the transfer value offered by Napoli is really beyond the capabilities of MU's pockets.  anyway, harry kane and osimhen are two players who are man utd's top priority, but to get one of them, man utd's challenge is quite tough.
936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: July 09, 2023, 06:52:30 PM
I wish I could have posted this in a more better place but since the thoughts came from gambling addiction, I thought it wise to ask this question over here and I hope we can discuss and get this straight.

Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe  for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount  of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful  gambler must have invested  both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable  winning  and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.

Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?
you are called a gambling addict when your mind is only focused on gambling, there will be no passion that can raise your spirits in real life unless you gamble happily.  for successful gamblers, there are those who only play a few times in a gambling game, but he is lucky and earns a lot of money or jackpot  (this cannot be called gambling addiction)
addiction is something that looks easy on other people, when your friend's activities are more gambling than working or something else, then it is very likely that person is becoming an gambling addict.

937  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do when you have Financial Freedom? on: July 09, 2023, 06:38:42 PM
when i achieve financial freedom, i will hire the best people to build a strong business, it is very natural if someone does not have a sense of satisfaction with the achievements in their life even though they have achieved financial freedom (just look at how elon musk, mark zuckerberg or bill gates don't stop making money even when they already have a lot of money (even bought several private islands).

setting up a business is a noble job because there are many people who depend their lives on business owners.

I saw that too. Even mane's manager denies an offer from saudi club

https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2023/7/7/23785956/bayern-munich-sadio-mane-transfer-rumor-denial-saudi-arabia-liverpool-fc-harry-kane-mathys-tel

It's likely sadio mane will be in the club for another season. The only problems some news were calling him as toxic players and it was the reason why bayern was opening the door for mane to leave from the club. I thought that all of problems already solved by him even the conflict with sane too.
So many rumor related to him to create sensation if mane is willing to leave from bayern already spread to the various place.  

i am quite sad to see how Sadio Mane has been treated by Bayern because of Mane's inability to give the best performance at Bayern this season, there were rumors that he would return to the EPL and to be precise to newcastle but until now those rumors were not true and happened.

If we see how Mane appeared extraordinary at Liverpool, but was quite disappointing at Bayern, it was actually not his fault entirely, Mane was not a lone striker, he was a support while Bayern really needed a replacement for Lewandowski.
939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 08, 2023, 06:01:54 PM
No matter how much we say Mbappe will leave the club as a free agent but in reality it is very difficult. Because how do we think with a star like Mbappe where the club is supposed to make money, the PSG management will let him join another club as a free agent member. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has given Mbappe a condition that if he wants to stay with PSG for another season, he must renew the argument, but if he does not want to stay with the club, he can leave for any club at the moment. Because if Mbappe moves to a club now while the contract is still in place, PSG will definitely get a benefit, and PSG has added such a condition to Mbappe to achieve that benefit.
the PSG president is a smart person, he knows that he will not be able to keep mbappe longer at PSG, when mbappe's contract runs out then he will go to madrid so that as long as mbappe is still under a PSG contract, they should be looking for big money from  sale of mbappe, reportedly madrid is ready to spend fantastic money to make mbappe to their team.

madrid still haven't found a potential replacement for benzema and mbappe is a good candidate, mbappe is madrid's main target, they will always be waiting for mbappe's next challenge.

this is a very dangerous competition for the younger generation, it could be that in the future young people will compete to become a doping Olympic athlete, everyone can become a great athlete if they use doping, so i really hope that this competition is aborted  authorities so that there is no reason for doping addicts to carry out this inappropriate competition.

from day to day i see that more and more strange things are happening, people seem like they don't care about ethics anymore, so we have to be able to fight against things like this.
