961  Economy / Economics / Re: Planning avoids unnecessary expenses on: April 07, 2023, 08:34:03 PM
It's not bad to live a extravagant life if you can afford it, if you don't, then that's bad obviously. Sometimes we're having second thoughts when it comes to spending on things that we wanted, because of the "we only live once" and the part of us that says we should save money instead. It's not bad to buy thing you want from time to time, because you deserve it after all the hard works you've done, but of course limit yourself on things that's too expensive for your budget.

There's a saying that don't spend money that is bigger than your salary, which is very true for you to have something in your savings.
Everyone has the desire to spend on their dream item even though the price is expensive, they buy it from the results of hard work for months to buy their dream item, based on my opinion that it is not a waste and is not included in the category of unnecessary expenses, unless they have needs that must be prioritized over buy expensive things. Spending on dream items only once or twice based on previous budget planning, but spending on expensive items without planning is a waste because spending the main budget for other needs that are more prioritized.
962  Economy / Economics / Re: Is taking a loan/debt addicted ? on: April 07, 2023, 08:14:43 PM
There is nothing wrong with a loan if not abused, many billionaires today one time or the other had to take a loan to finance their business as a source of capital for start-up businesses. Only if the loan is to access things that had no value for example buying new clothes just for a party or show up.
Actually there are 2 important points for the decision to apply for a loan, the need for business capital and emergency needs because of the need for large funds, besides that if applying for a loan to improve lifestyle then he must be prepared to pay high interest and the fatal risk of losing property or the borrower / bank will make foreclosures of expensive items equivalent to the rest of the loan, never get involved in a loan if there is no important need because you have to consider high interest payments and have to have a passive income higher than loan payments every month.
963  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do people stay poor? on: April 07, 2023, 07:47:54 PM
When asking about why do people stay poor? seems sensitive question because many people have working hard from the early morning until middle night but not have enough salary received. Looking on Indonesian country the salary under $100 with working almost 12 hours and how possibilities become richest person.

They are not lazy but not lucky with how company procedure with lower salary payment, I think OP have chance for becoming richest person if working in his country but higher salary receiving then have side job for increasing income on every month. Some time government regulation not helped poor people get good facilities and service then they always on poor staying.
Every country determines the minimum wage for every worker and employee, but according to the salary of your country it is still very low and even some employees are still paid below the minimum wage even though they have worked in government agencies, so don't expect to be rich if your passive income comes from government salaries unless you become the head of an office or parliament, apart from that to be rich you have to have another job according to your skills and now many young people have succeeded from online businesses with higher salaries.
964  Economy / Economics / Re: Is some certain lifestyle a waste of money and time ? on: April 07, 2023, 07:38:58 PM
People mostly misinterpret life style with being over spender ,showing off everything and being too shinny and sparkling about your life . Literally they waste  everything on shallow things which have no possible outcomes and returns .
You can have a life style within your expenses and finances , you can live a good and comfortable life within your range .
With today's difficult situation in which everyone is living one should avoid wasting their money and time on unnecessary things .
We have to adjust the lifestyle based on your finances and environment, you can't overly show off luxury items on social media just to gain recognition of wealth from others, but the fact that real billionaires don't do activities that waste time publicizing wealth to others, lifestyle they are just a private mode or not showing off to others. So it's better to do other positive activities that are beneficial to you than wasting time posting excessive lifestyles on social media.
965  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another scam email attempt on: April 06, 2023, 09:41:47 PM
I also received a similar email a few months ago, but it was in Russian instead of English and suggested using Google translate. However, it wasn't containing any of my passwords; it was a simple threat demanding $1000 in Bitcoin. Ignore it and move on; change your passwords and secure your Bitcointalk account, which is vital. I've also used the website haveibeenpwned.com and have suffered plenty of leaks. I've changed my password multiple times, but my email is still being targeted. Is there a way to save it, or should I just dump it?
if you change the password then you are safe from the threat, so it's better to block that user's email so you won't receive that message again, but if you feel worried about the threat then it's better to replace the new email and ignore the old email if There is no important account associated with that email, I don't care about any threatening messages in the email because if he managed to hack my account then why didn't he just steal my balance without begging to send $900 to his address.
966  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: New virus & malware automatically empties crypto exchange accounts on: April 06, 2023, 09:33:42 PM
This is one of the main reason why I limit myself from using desktop to access important information, although it's not that using a phone would prevent us from getting attacked I think we just have ti to be very careful to a safety level. This are happening and we should make sure that we learn from other people's mistakes. Using an exchange is good even though most of us here would never want to be sincere to themselves. We need to make sure we are a wallet where we store our coins and send them to an exchange if we want to trade them.
If we use the desktop to visit the official site and don't add bad extensions to the browser then it's fine you use the desktop for whatever purposes it takes, but make sure anti-virus security has been enabled on the desktop to detect viruses in realtime, my friend's desktop is recent it's having malware for copy address replacing automatically from address hacker, so i have helped to fix that problem and antivirus gave source address of virus folder which turned out to be due to installing unofficial application, so be careful installing unofficial application on your desktop.
967  Economy / Economics / Re: Should you save, when you are wealthy? on: April 06, 2023, 09:22:50 PM
I'm wondering how long we'll need to do the savings? Who has already reached any significant level, are you still saving, or you can afford to live without any financial restrictions?
I'd still saving even if I had a chance to be in that phase. I bet even richest people out there have savings in case something bad and fatal happen in their life, savings are a must if you at least want to be safe in your financial decision. Sure, you may not need to worry about your money because of your job or the way you obtain the income but let's be real here we don't know what would happened in the future and so many cases have been published in news where rich person could also get dragged down to be a poor because of some reasons, just be aware.
Everyone should have savings so it doesn't matter whether it's for the rich or the poor, if the rich don't have savings because they are very wasteful to shop and spend money without setting limits on using money for daily needs. Like you said that our economy will change in the future so we need savings for unexpected financial preparations, so it's very important to save even though you are rich people have passive income from your work but our future never knows because many of the rich people are now have fallen into poverty because they have no savings to continue their business.
968  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price guess for March on: April 06, 2023, 08:51:10 PM
Bitcoin is truly volatile, it can go up and down so much in a single month, we see 23% as normal because we had so many months where it was so different and that is why it wasn't really something we could consider as an option. I can't really believe that we had a great month, it has been so long since we hadn't had a good increase that it is really a weird situation to see this happen like it is no big deal.
The market recovery has been gradual, but the +23% gain last march is a significant price boost for the recovery so far and overall the market this year has indicated it will recover from the bearish past, we expect the $30k price tag to be hit soon in april as some potential news about Microstrategy has added bitcoin assets could trigger higher gains for the next stage of the market.
969  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we now on Crypto bull run? on: April 06, 2023, 08:27:23 PM
It is too early to decide if it is a bull run season but if btc rise above 35k$ maybe that was the start of the bull run season again, for now we still have yo wait a little more or we can still buy some more altcoin as a preparation of the possible bull run season just invest an amount that we can afford to loss.
Why do you have to buy altcoins to prepare for a bullrun when what is being awaited for a bullrun is Bitcoin? Indeed, in general altcoins also get a good increase in bull run conditions as has happened in 2021, but the most important thing here is to take advantage of this moment by having more Bitcoins even though it would not be wrong if someone has more altcoins in their wallet as long as the altcoins are is an altcoin that is already very popular in the market.
Some traders or investors have reasons from their analysis to buy altcoins before the bullrun, they don't ignore Bitcoin investment advice but due to limited funds they buy altcoins because top altcoins have higher profits during bullrun periods, but any altcoin is not guaranteed to pump during bullish periods hence there is a high risk to be considered for potential altcoin options, but good advice to share investment for halves in top bitcoin and altcoins for the purpose of recovering losses with bitcoin and altcoin investments to get high profit opportunities.
970  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do new online casinos struggle? on: April 06, 2023, 08:01:33 PM
When a casino just start newly, it's better for them to first gain the trust of their customer or perhaps potential customers,  because when they just jump into the business with the intent of profiting there is a high probability that they are going fail.
But if it's a casino that won't be able to survive for a long period without profits then they can start looking for ways to profit from gamblers, as they do say, "no risk no gain".
Every casino has to earn the trust of every user but for new casinos are not familiar to the gambler community so they have to allocate funds for campaigns and advertisements on the site or strategic sections to gain interest from potential users, now many new casinos don't have enough funds for campaigning so the duration of the campaign is very limited so that the results of the campaign promotion for the gambler community are not optimal and it will be difficult to get new users, but if the team continues to consistently build a gambling platform then in the next few years they will already have an active user community.
971  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crypto traders beaten by girls on: April 05, 2023, 09:37:16 PM
Sometimes surveys depend on the respondent, and I think surveys like this are normal and not surprising, in my opinion the thing that is the advantage of women over men is that they can be patient and control their emotions, the real thing is when buying, women can be patient to bid and get the best price.
You may have missed the news from the website that has been mentioned in the main thread, there are 1500 residents who have been surveyed by IRCI and the results of the survey about crypto are very satisfying because many respondents have participated including many women who are active in crypto trading and investors, so the news is that there are many women has reported crypto assets compared to men is very unexpected because many women do not agree to invest in crypto, so there are many positive changes in developing countries in Singapore because women there are familiar with technology and keep up with the times to move into the digitalization era including in cryptocurrency.
972  Economy / Speculation / Re: When do you think Bitcoin will hit $1 million for the first time? on: April 05, 2023, 09:24:30 PM
But I don't know how real $1M is because we never know what the future of bitcoin will be. The most reasonable to expect is $100k, that's probably not expecting $1m any time soon. While I'm not saying it's impossible, the $1 million odds are extremely low. I would honestly choose longer time frame for $1M, meaning I can't be that optimistic in the short term.
Speculation for a price of $1 million may be reached someday but it may take several decades, it's hard to say it can be reached in the next 5-10 years, the most realistic prediction is likely to be $100k because based on the previous ATH price, I have often listened to predictions $1 million in the previous few months though without valid analytical details but the high predictions have motivated investors to hold diamonds for the long term.
973  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How honest and transparent are casinos? on: April 04, 2023, 09:43:33 PM
And so far, I think the casinos we use as places to gamble have tried to always be transparent with their members. Maybe the casinos don't disclose everything about promotions and bonuses but at least the casinos have given the best they can to their members. We won't be able to enjoy gambling if we only focus on things we don't know for sure and even if we try to look for them, maybe we won't find the answers either. So it's better for us to enjoy gambling and take the promotions and bonuses we want.
We don't need to spend time thinking about it because until whenever we will never know unless the casino publishes a drop or bonus distribution list in the telegram group or posts on a Twitter account, but for top platforms we will never doubt the team because they will definitely distribute to all members according to the drop recipient quota or bonus. We don't need to know because it won't be useful for us to know and it's better to enjoy gambling and increase the chances of winning your bet.
974  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Btc get to $12k or $10k on: April 02, 2023, 09:54:50 PM
And speaking of fluctuation, the price is currently at $28,300 from the $28,600 that you have seen. As a experienced buyer yeah, anything goes right now, we might be seeing some semblance of a bull run, nevertheless if there is one bad news the market might turn for the worst. Nevertheless it's a perfect opportunity again to just buy when that happens.

So assuming that it will go back to $12,000 or even $10,000, then we don't need to take it very badly but instead make it positive and buy around that price and continue to accumulate long term.
There is always a connection with every pattern of price movement because if the market fails to reach a certain price target it is likely to stay at a lower price until it is time to reach an increase again, but even if the market drops drastically we can increase our portfolio assets and never panic about prices because it can cause you lost focus for long term investment, you don't need to remind about the recent correction low but think of recovery high from $15k to reach $28k within this month, current correction low doesn't mean anything, we optmistion to hold BTC until halving period.
975  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and education on: April 02, 2023, 09:52:55 PM
Both are essential to have but you should have finished your education before diving into money but some people are in school knows things about money or have started making money because, they planned themselves very well. The secret of money can never be thought in school that's why we have many graduates today out there that are not working so if anyone understand how to make money then you combine the both to have and expected good end after you might have graduated from school.
Strongly agree, we must prioritize education before working or making money because someone at student age is already working to make money so there is a possibility that he will drop out of school because he has positioned work as more important than education, I have seen the facts in my environment and it is very unfortunate in the future they cannot work in a proportional position because they do not have a history of higher education.
976  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin can do 30k$ this month? on: April 02, 2023, 09:50:03 PM
We've corrected to $26k already and again, we went as high as $28,500 but it seems buyers are exhausted and needed to take a rest. And so far this April, its's been sideways pattern still. Nevertheless we are already in some kind of bullish phase so we might as well continue with it this April and hopefully we can break that $30k barrier.
If the highest price fails to be reached, then the price movement pattern will be corrected as it was before reaching $ 25 last month, I think the price will be corrected at $ 25k again because it failed to penetrate $ 30k last month, so we don't need to panic with price corrections when this and remain optimistic on the next recovery will hit the highs and we will soon reach the last ATH price in the future bullish period.
977  Economy / Gambling / Re: My list of good crypto casinos on: April 02, 2023, 09:43:06 PM
It was so terrible.
Therefore it is very rare for popular casinos to have telegrams as a means of discussion between gamblers which will have bad consequences later.
But the big casinos that are on this forum maybe some have telegram channels for event notifications etc. related to the casino itself but gamblers can only watch without commenting.
After all, if it's only for discussion between gamblers, the casino itself has a chatroom feature that gamblers can use to discuss directly with other gamblers.
I think every gambling platform doesn't need to provide a telegram group account for discussion because they are not another concept project platform that has to provide a discussion group with the team, they just need to provide a telegram channel for information boards to the community because gambling platforms usually have chatrooms on their sites, but many gamblers who use chatrooms for spam so the team had to develop an anti-spam chatroom and determine the duration of the chat.
978  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Online casino always take risks? on: April 02, 2023, 09:37:15 PM
I am just curious about how does online casino pay for their promotion on their influencers? Where does their earning comes from? How will you get scammed when you try online casino? How can you tell that online casino is safe?
Risk is everywhere in cryptomarket, you can just lessen it but you cannot avoid it.
Gambling are more risky, and if you are not able to find a good online casino probably the chance of losing are high. Most of the influencer introduce a good platform, but still you need to do your own research before you follow them so you can know if the site will allow you to play or not, always read their terms and conditions.
If they use well-known influencers then it is certain that they are promoting a good gambling platform because only top gambling platforms are able to use the services of famous influencers, but however we have to do our own research and analysis to determine the reputation of a gambling platform, of course for crypto-based gambling many gamblers follow the recommendations of forums, because forums have a lot of active gamblers and there is no need to follow recommendations from influencers.
979  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: April 02, 2023, 09:28:24 PM
You'll need to have hundreds of referrals to make it worthwhile. I have more than a hundred refs on my freebitco.in account and only 1 of them is still active but I am lucky because he is constantly making bets, selling FUN tokens etc and generating me some nice sats every week. I agree with you in general though. Somehow I manage to collect these refs in the past but I probably wouldn't do it today because it is not worth my effort. Making money this way is not very time efficient.
You are very lucky to have referrals that are still active until now, but you can collect more referrals until now because the feebitcoin gambling platform is still active and you only need to improve your ability to attract new enthusiasts, I also had several referrals at that time but unfortunately I lost access to that wallet because my pc broke and lost some important data.

Even if that could be another good thing but I think reputation is more than anything in this. For me personally, I really don't really expect any bonuses for each month, even though it's good enough to satisfy myself more, but even if it doesn't exist, I don't consider it a problem because of course there are other things, namely the reputation you get in this case.
As long as I'm comfortable with them and as long as their reputation is always good in my eyes, whether there's a bonus or not every month, I don't really have a problem with that.
But then again there are clearly different perspectives here and this is my view for a casino.
I agree with your opinion, because every gambler positions the reputation factor for the main assessment of each casino site, but there are several important points that are bound from every general perspective, including some gamblers want bonuses given by casinos as loyalty to old customers, from the other side of the casino giving bonuses to compete with other top casino competitors to retain each other's customers, so it doesn't matter if you choose giving casino bonuses is only optional and I also agree we will value reputation as the main point for each casino.
