I do not gamble with debt and that's what I will never do and the same goes for investing. Investing and gambling with the use of debt is a big no for me.

I might understand if people that own businesses and they're asking for loans for expansion and more inventories as that's needed for them to cope up with demand.

But in gambling it's different, that's why I'll never do that. I'm more comfortable to gamble with my own money so even if I lose, I have no obligation to pay anyone.
Probably for some beginners in gambling, taking debt is a big NO. However, for those who have been gambling in years and have already developed addiction, taking debt is very welcome for them. That’s why a lot of addicted gamblers drown into debt, not because they’re unable to pay, but because they have put in mind that gambling can be a reliable source of income to pay their debts when in reality, it’s not.
And that's what people shouldn't imitate them for doing so. Gambling and asking for a loan shouldn't be a tandem and done by any gambler because you're just pushing yourself too much and giving the bad view about what being a gambler is.

I might be addicted into gambling somehow but at the end of the day, I still manage not to cross my betting budget and limit my expenses and losses as well. But taking debt just to gamble, I will never do that.
IMO that contradicts. When you're addicted to gambling, you can't manage anything as there's only one thing on your mind and that's to gamble and you won't be able to control that.

However, when it comes to investment, taking a loan is acceptable as long as you’re able to pay and you have your stable job that will back up you when your investment does not work based on planned.
I won't also do this.

If you are going to take loan for investing, you might just save your salary and use that.

How much did you invest there? It's obviously a scam and sorry to say OP that please don't be too gullible with these programs that they call.

That TVN that's being asked to you is likely a deposit that will guarantee the scammer that you've deposited or sent him a money. And that 'lora' sure isn't a gal but some who's a guy that has been into this for quite a while and laughing at you and other victims.

Whatever.

Correction, dump, drop, or whatever he calls. It's normal for Bitcoin to have some correction during these all time highs. But the good thing with this moment is that we're not yet in halving and we're anticipating more to come.

Whether it will be before or after the halving, just expect that there will be some corrections as taking profits are essential for most investors.

Seeing the all time high is indeed a very good thing for those who have accumulated throughout the bear season. It does not matter at which price we bought bitcoin or done the DCA. Everyone who is holding at spot will be in profit and now it is a matter of time on how long people will hold. Some may be more greedy and may not sell easily while other may be fearful and think that the top is near and they should sell.
Remember, there is still a long time for the duration of bitcoin bull market and still this is the time for holding.  Smiley
Greed will be there for most of the holders now.

Before, the majority have planned that they'd sell if Bitcoin hits $70k. Now that it is more than that, they'd for sure going to be more patient and will set another price before they sell.

This is what happens at most times when Bitcoin's price keeps on pumping. I'd say that just HODL.
those that sold around $50k thinking bitcoin would dumb, I wish I could see the look on their faces seeing bitcoin recent price , now they would be regretting their actions big time . And such moment, when FOMO would be at work. Causing a lot of people gambling with their funds expecially those investing in shit coins inorder to make huge profits, in a short period of time. While are gambling with funds for short-terms profits and same time applying the use of leverages , I would say get ready to get rekt ( lose all funds). Is better to keep hodl without panicky than selling your investment and start using the funds for gambling to make short-term profit. Those that are still holding are different from those that sold Theirs, is principles those are still holding have good principles towards their investment and also believe in bitcoin. While those that sold theirs too early like around $50k lack those principles. Well we just got to keep accumulating and hodl. Because this recent growth is just the beginning.
It's okay bro.

There's no need to look at their faces and mock them. Everyone has their own time of selling but they have been happy to sell at that range. While me, I don't have plans yet. I'll hold as much as I can.

Those that have a strong heart and a long term plan for their Bitcoins, we'll just hold and let things happen and come.

I see many here invest in stocks but do you guys invest in stocks and bond related things? I would like to discuss new things with you guys if you like.
Not yet.

I find investing in crypto way profitable than in the stocks because movement there is quite slow. But I know people that are in the stocks and they're not willing to jump on the crypto train because they think that this is all hype and likely a scam.

See, even until today even if Bitcoin has been made its own ETF, still, they think it's a scam.

Soon, if ever I get some hefty profit from my sale, I might invest also in stocks and other markets where I can invest an amount that I can afford to lose.

It has been seen long time ago.

The actual games like RPGs, MOBA and any other type of game, there's a possible gambling and betting that can be integrated with it. I think that's one of the social change that they're talking about.

And there will be more in the future depending on where this technology that we have right now is going to change our way of dealing through the casinos.

Yeah, but this new breed of casinos are thinking that they might want to be more sociable, so they will have to developed new inventions that will make this happen. It might take a lot of money from them like VR which will be the new frontier for gamblers. And I think it will be a success though for gamblers. But not sure how it will affect the traditional based casino. I'm not saying that it might affect them as the experience is gambling is shifting, but who knows, maybe their profits will be affected in a negative way if online casinos will have to find a way to have the same experience for gamblers like playing in land base casinos.
It can still be united with the games through VR or they'll dedicate something inside that game like an online place to play casino.

I think that sandbox or any of that type of project, I've seen something like that. Actually, I like the whole concept of it because we can see that there's an endless potential for everything nowadays if it's about online.

Not just all about casinos but the entirety of businesses and other things where people interact with each other.

Interestly enough, not matter what people study, in the end they will do what they like to do, that is what I have heard from people whoare older and have more experience than I do.
I tend to watch interviews of the old people that are already in retirement and when they've been asked to what their regrets were. One of their answers is that they didn't pursue what they like.

So, they tell that while we're young and if we've got time, pursue what you think you want to take. Whether they are courses, travels, masters, etc.

It's true that no matter what we study if we're allowed by fate to go back in studying, you should pursue what you really like.

Monaco sure is a great country but expensive for tourists. This is one of the countries where the wealthiest are keeping their money.

F1 is also the main attraction there and I don't know that much in there but just watched some videos about how typically chill the country and the people are.

I'm wondering if before I die I'd be able to visit this country.

932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: About running an online casino vs an offline casino on: March 11, 2024, 05:14:57 PM
I have been thinking about this a lot now and today again, I did the same, it's probably the right time to pour out my mind to my family on this forum, hope in return to get some great answers.

I know that it's not easy to run a casino, hire workers and some professionals and others, my question is. ....

1. Is running offline casinos the same as running an online casino?

2. What do online casinos have to lose if they aren't making as much money as they intended?

3. With online casinos, isn't the number of hiring being limited compared to someone who wants to run an offline casino?

4. Which one is more easier to manage than the other?
1. Both are completely different.
2. Expenses. Servers, subscriptions, licensing fees.
3. Both can hire as much as they can depending on their growth and the number of their customers and if the demand is quite high.
4. Offline/physical casinos.

And the last question is, which one would you go for if you have the resources?
There are no cloud security concerns that I have to be worried of with offline.

I'd support whatever they want to be when they grow older but I'd teach them the importance of investing. It's okay to be an employee whether in the public or the private sector.

It doesn't matter as long as they have financial education and they know how to manage their finances. For me, that's all that matters and they make their own money.

And when they grow older, they'll realize the importance of investing and why many rich people have gone through that path.

No sane person will gamble with loan money,  because at the end of the day, you will lose the money and become indebted at the end so we have to agree that taking a loan to gamble with is not a welcome idea and such should be discouraged.

Gambling should be done with money that you don't need and should be able to put away for a long time or lose it totally without any feelings of disappointment or discomfort,  but if you take loans to gamble with,  you can forget the amount if you lose it to gambling since there will be a point where you will be asked to pay back such debt
Well, if you have read some story from the forum. There were gamblers that have loaned just for them to gamble.

It's hard to imagine but there certainly are people that can do such if they are desperate from doing so. But for me, as I have said, I won't do it because I know the consequences of it.

It's best to gamble with your own money and it doesn't matter if you lose because you can just leave it like that and won't think of any loan to pay later on.

Jack of all trades and master of none is the complete saying which itself explain what you should do. It is not really possible for most of us to be master at different fields and it's not really necessary too as long as the one you are pursuing has future then concentrate on it completely but it doesn't mean you have to forfeit everything, you can try others as well but as I said everyone is not capable of reaching it.
If you have passion and love for something in your career, you'd just choose to be a specialist of it. But there's no fun eventually when you get older from there and that's why many chooses to be a jack of all trades and be a master of none.

I think it's changing the variance nowadays because even if they tell you that you're a master of none, you can master something that you're not fond of if you've been doing that for a long time.

What matters today is what's adaptable to you and will help you to survive.

Becoming a master at one thing is possible no matter when we start pursuing but is it really possible to even become knowledgeable in multiple fields simultaneously? Kind of hard that is why I said it's not necessary but one who can definitely try to be one.

Also it is really not that easy to get financial benefits with basic knowledge at any field cause most of the jobs are getting replaced or we have to pick the workforce which requires physical interaction that is irreplaceable to some extent which is really high paying job? I don't think so.
You don't have to do that simultaneously, you can take step at a time for you to do it. As you master your own craft and skill, you just try to have some peeks with other knowledge that you have to acquire.

And as you do that, you'd just commit a few hours per day or per week like reading for you to understand the foundations of it while remaining the master of that one thing or skill.
936  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Joining a Trading Competition to Flex My Skills in the Bull Market on: March 10, 2024, 11:32:42 PM
They're actually good to test your trading skills. I don't join any as I can say that I am not a good trader but if you think that you are then it's a way to prove yourself and showcase your trading skills.

IMHO, it's not about the prize or whatnot there. But it's about on how you'd be able to defeat the other traders and see who's the best and as well as the experience that you'll get from there.

Another thing is you enjoy the competition, win or lose.
937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you prefer betting your own predictions or from prediction site on: March 10, 2024, 10:40:37 PM
If I can blame them for my losses then I do so. Kidding aside, that's what you can't do when you will have their predictions too.

I don't know if there's the type of lazy gambler that are solely dependent to a casino's prediction or any individual and other gamblers predictions too.

I just find it odd when there is a copy trading in exchanges but there goes as almost the same as copy-betting. But I am not a fan of this kind of strategy.
938  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: HODL bitcoins, you can do it! Look at HODL camp map to build up strong hands on: March 10, 2024, 09:49:12 PM
They also forget to use Bitcoin as a benchmark from where the value of their capital is based from? Why? Because if a "trader" can't outperform Bitcoin, then why be a "trader"? Simply be a HODLer and try add units in your capital in Bitcoin by buying the DIP and/or DCA.
They are in belief that being a trader is the way to riches but they don't realize that it's the hardest path and we've got some easiest strategy and that's effortless through DCA.

Being a holder and just adding up more bitcoins by having buying is what they just have to realize that they'd able to see why we keep on telling and suggesting people to do it.

No need to get into the battle of hassle with other traders when you can HODL and DCA.
