941  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Martingale betting system on: January 02, 2024, 03:55:21 PM
But anyways, good luck to whom ever will be applying Martingale in their gambling, for me, this remains a no go area.

Martingale is still a dangerous way to gamble. For a loser who implores martingale, he is likely to still gamble or bet in the same direction that he had earlier making him less likely to win the bet. He will only be hopeful that the bet favours him at the long run. His analysis will not be any where near "accurate" because of tension to chase his losses. I think it is better to let some losses go to start again in the beginning, so to start afresh is better than to keep patching already bad game.

A gambler wins once in a while in his life time but whether it is consistent is debatable. Just very few people have that consistency and probably in a month time not daily. We need to know it that it is difficult to keep a consistent winning streak but from time some fair winners get to hit the jackpot to pick up the money lost by losing gamblers. Casinos make more profit than the gamblers who patronize them and that is why we are having more casinos opening up.
943  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Anytime na opportunity to invest for bitcoin on: January 02, 2024, 12:50:36 PM

but the thing be say many people dey wait until the precious time comes before them go buy bitcoin,  but I dey let una know say bitcoin no get particular time wey you go buy am.

Bro, everything wey concern investment for bitcoin na about goal wey you dey pursue, where you set your eyes put matter and you need to focus on it.

To invest depend on the thing wey you want. If you want hodl for long time den to begin buy as soon as you think say e cheap to buy and that na when price don crash like 2 years before the next halving, by that time the market don really turn red. Some people also want to buy when e don near halving or bull run so that dem no go hodl for too long, dem just want hit deir target den dump and go. Therefore, it depends on your goal and not be say you go just go invest without plan because some people no really get extra money to tie down. But seriously, no be much people fit invest and hodl or tie deir money down for two years just like that as economy no smooth, family dey deir to run around on.
944  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Can this be the start? on: January 02, 2024, 11:23:50 AM
Many people don dey talk say we don gradually enter the bull like 4 months ago self, that is around the time wey dem dey expect say the price go drop back to around 15k to 20k but instead from 25k e gradually stroll enter 30k and from their we see am for 40k and today now we dey see 45k , with this current price self e remain just like 24k make we touch the last highest price, yet halving still remain 4months. The price of the next ATH suppose pass 100k since the price no fall for December meaning say no body ready sell him coins take buy cow or car for the new year. It definitely mean say every body don turn goal keepers hodling for the next bull.

Normally this bull time almost all the coin dey rise so to still buy altcoins no be bad thing but wetin bad na to dey for bed dey sleep when developers go dump as soon as bitcoin reach deir own level.
945  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Who is an educated Person? on: January 02, 2024, 08:32:27 AM
Op don forget say before the high level of educational qualifications and their acquisitions our fathers in the past sabi exactly how to protect themselves and protect their families against intruders, same is still obtainable today. Someone wey no dey educated no mean say him go just open him eyes say make you put knife for him kneck, at least him go still do wetin him fit do to escape his dangers but unfortunately no be our level of education go protect our lives. The government has failed the people on that and made the economy worse . So nothing concern the level of education to security. And there is difference between education and wisdom.

I believe real education only exposes you to the fences of the world outside you. Meaning you can see the world through another person's eyes. Learning how to read, write and be reasonable for yourself then gives you an edge of grabbing opportunity. Education is important, evident in adult schooling.
946  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Which require more attention? on: January 02, 2024, 08:01:22 AM
Make we remember say e get wetin dem dey cal C of O wey be certificate of occupancy. Na that one certify say where you dey live na residential area, suitable etc and probably say your name is tied to it because recently we go don dey hear as houses are being destroyed across Nigeria states for the offense of wrongly building.

So if we dey build for areas wey no be home make sure say you shine your eye before you begin put money for structure wey dem go soon come demolish. Apart from that, we need to also balance ourselves out regards to where we dey hussle and home. The reality be say many people get edifice for hussling place yet dem no get a room of theirs for home and sometimes dat edifice get destroyed for d reason wey I mention earlier and living the baba to nothing for old age. No house for hussling place or home na dat one bad pass.

In my place, parents are really earning a lot from gambling. But they still teach their children not to gamble. Like they are bad examples that shouldnt be followed. It's kinda ironic how parents in your place are raking in cash from gambling but still telling their kids to steer clear. That double standard must be confusing for the youngsters. I guess it's that classic "do as I say, not as I do" vibe.


Well such parents are probably depending on gambling as a source of income and livelihood despite they knowing that it is not the best for them to rely on it maybe they only want to make ends meet. So guiding their children away from it is proper because they don't want them to learn it as they are still immature to control their emotions which could put them into the danger of gambling away their time, school fees and even to steal their parents money to gamble. Generally, good parents put away their gambling habit from their children to avoid them gambling at inappropriate age when their minds have not matured for such habit.
948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 01, 2024, 02:55:41 PM

I want to ask, do you believe in experts gambling predictions?



You have already seen that you didn't fall for the trap because you weren't sure of it. It is as easy as that to know there are no 100% prediction. If you had followed then it would have been you keep trying to win back your loses and by then you will keep losing more.

There are people who run such business on gamblers because I have witnessed it severally, they select some games at random and present it to group of gamblers for sell and when you suggest for them to stake it themselves, they would pretend they don't have money by themselves to stake on it. All they are looking for is how to get some money from you and this kind of thing happen in football games.
Selling and staging certain images with high winning rates in certain games is a very common form of cheating people's trust as well as luring others with the idea of experience and to satisfy this curiosity, tuition is mandatory, such gambling experts actually have a media team behind them to boost their public image. Some other experts belong to bookmakers, they cooperate to take commission fees from referrals, jn general, it is difficult to find a valid expert prediction when gambling is where so many deceitful and manipulative corporations hide

Those who are selling predicting football signal are those who have not been profiting from gambling and so they go behind to still make profit from those who are not knowledgeable about what is happening and are desparate to regain what they have lost. Someone who believes that his predictions will be successful don't need to go on the streets to look for who would buy it from them rather they can meet a family member or friend to bet it and not to try to selling it, that is insincerity and the way you can know there is no such guarantee in gambling. I have seen many of such games losing and the seller won't come near that area for sell of such predictions for a long time.
949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto gambling and religious restrictions on: January 01, 2024, 01:14:00 PM
Crypto isn't made to circumvent, it's a development in technology, and we are bound to adopt it.
Touchy subject but all over the world everyone gambles and we just set aside religion for a moment as it's not so bad to have fun for a bit. And the government is allowing the country to have some sort of a sin city where we can have fun and gamble and it's allowed.  Have some humanity. Can't Religion forgive a soul whose intention is to enjoy life?   Grin

Lol if you want to follow religion to the last tenets of it, it doesn't support gambling whether for the intent of fun or whatever, because it was demonstrated in the synagogue when Jesus Christ chased some gamblers away and scattering their gambling materials even though it was in the church but it shows it is not a virtue for those known with the religion. And this is the case also of Muslim religion . A man that upholds his religious faith try to stay away from gambling.

Happy new year to you op. 2023 has been a wonderful year and this year shall be of greater blessings. Well, I'm not an addict, so I take it gradual and more calculative and I don't intend to go beyond that this time around. As always advised, use the amount of money that you can afford to lose, this is very important because it doesn't put you in pressure to chase recovery of losses .

For me I think that the dynamics of the way they see gamblers now is changing and that is because of the economic situation that I think job scarcity has caused. To start with there are so many apps enabling gambling online and offline, so that has actually led to the awareness of gambling. In the past some families don't accommodate because of the training and the way they look at those who gamble but things are changing as phases are passing through old ways of doing things to new ways and gamblers that were seen as people not responsible, we get to still see responsible people who are gambling currently.
953  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your Top 3 Altcoins of 2023? on: December 31, 2023, 04:08:15 PM
Dogecoin is one of the altcoins that have been strong this despite the dumping from last time bull but it has still made itself relevant in the market. Without Elon musk rally so much around it for this few months back and it has made some gains especially the last two months. BnB is also another good purposeful altcoins too that has stayed on top. Ethereum of course is the third for me with a steady move up and down with bitcoin.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Answer this Gambling Question on Duration of Joy after a win or loss on: December 31, 2023, 07:34:00 AM

I am curious, how long does this joy last after a win or a loss—does it linger until your next bet, lasting the whole day, just 20 minutes, or perhaps 2 hours?


It depends on how long you have been winning too. If you are consistent in your winning then the joy will continue no doubt about that and you can keep showing love to people around you because of that joy but if you are not maintaining your winning then you are not keeping your joy flowing and that will be replaced by anger, bitterness and transfer aggression. And depending on how long that you keep losing, then that is how long the sadness will be. Therefore, you can be sad for day, days, weeks or months depending on how long you are losing.

956  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How important is Traditional Education on Children in the World on: December 30, 2023, 05:15:07 PM

In the Greek native educational system, the female child is given the social education of home keeping , child rearing while , the male children are given military education from childhood by the governments of the justifications.


The role of social change in the educational system is quite enormous as so many things have changed.

I don't know if the Greek educational institutions and learning process are just only teaching children based gender roles or sex because even in other countries, the above on quote was true and same with what was practiced in other continents but now things have changed. Even the kind of democracy that was practiced in Greeks in the past would have changed.

In the past, there were no female combatants but today we have female soldiers and paramilitary all over. We see women doing jobs that are exclusive for men and women taking up dominant roles in the family because quite alot have changed economically and many people have argued that it is because of falling economy and also that the female are now favoured in job employment. The point however is that things have really changed from education to government irresponsibility to provide economic leadership.

For a country to go into war, it is already something of interest for both then you have other countries interest and blocs, so this is what escalates the fight that would have ended earlier to prolong. Despite the divide that we looking at the war from, I believe it would have been long gone if US was not interested in it and now that they are, it means the interest will spread to NATO countries and shifting to Asian countries.
958  Other / Archival / Re: Generational wealth on: December 30, 2023, 03:27:00 PM
If you want to build generational wealth, there are two ways to do that and first is to look into investing in the shares of big international conglomerate so that you will have a secured shares that you can profit from so that even if you are not alive, the profit keeps coming to your family. I have seen families that have benefited from this kind of investment over time till now.

Another angle to build such wealth is to become a manufacturer of a highly valuable goods be it cars, ship, airplane, building materials and things of high value including drugs and medical related equipments.

So the above is a preamble to what you can do to have generational wealth. That means, you can as well invest in shares of big international conglomerate in pharmaceuticals or you go into manufacturing of it yourself. But, the point is when you are gone, you can't know what is done with the business or investment and the idea you have layed down. Meaning that a family member can scam other members of your family and sell off your pharmaceutical investment  Grin

959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The frustrations in loosing a huge bet when your winning was so assured. on: December 30, 2023, 09:02:23 AM

I come to understand that it is more worrisome when the sure winning opportunities was so huge and got lost lately closed to the end time of the game.

It is more regretful when you had the cash out option for the game at a point where you were winning because if you are winning you will always have cash out option for you and as soon as you start losing, that cash out will be gone . Such situation makes the losing feeling very bad.

Yes so many times we have had games that we felt was our day turn around in our faces against us and it is really bizarre when you have had even one minute in extra time to win the bet. It has happened to me some times and that is why we have to understand that it is game of luck and if soccer it is not over until it is over.
960  Economy / Economics / Re: If Banks make money out of loans then they should reward those who borrow on: December 30, 2023, 07:38:13 AM
Don't compare banks and cryptocurrency directly but you can compare banks to exchange because they are both looking to make profit. Banks generate their profit from the customer through means that is not only loan and likewise exchanges do too. But cryptocurrency is not in itself made for interest or to generate profit but for the ease of financial transactions or option to payment system, so to compare banks that is established for profit purpose to the use of cryptocurrency will not be good measure. If you transfer your crypto to exchange or out of your wallet, you are also changed fees.
