In this case I would like to shamelessly raise my hand and proudly declare that I am the winner of the 200$ win on freebitco.in

No offense but I would suggest you to keep trying, I got my lucky roll on 16th November 2016 after 3 months - claiming about 4-5 times everyday.

I still consider myself as very very lucky to have rolled that number.

One should never gamble with the thought of making money, because it is not made for that. People created casinos to stimulate others greed so they end up losing their money and hence one should gamble for fun and not to make money.

Being addicted to gambling is even worse since people ruin their lives doing so.

I agree that saving the money is important but saving the money from gambling it away is even more important, since addicted gamblers are sure to play with it and lose it all.

I would suggest you to stay away from gambling and cloud mining sites first of all. You will only lose more than what you will earn.

Better methods are mining, trading. You can also try offering your services in bitcoin payments in the forum. Also signature campaigns once you get a high rank in the forum.

Stay away from faucets ptc and such - they are mostly a waste of time.

Both of them are important. You have to save some for future expenses and also for emergency purpose. Other than that you can invest your money for profit reaping. When you do decide to invest make sure to invest in different sectors and diversify the investments.

However do proper research before investing and never invest more that what you can lose.

There is nothing called consistent profit in gambling, since it is "gambling". Any winner in gambling has incurred huge losses before winning big, and in most cases they have gone broke even after winning big since the amount they have lost is much bigger than the amount they won. Hence the terms loser and winner becomes relative in this case and both have more or less similar habits and personalities.

Worst mistake in gambling is thinking that you are lucky.

Luck has the bad habit of slipping past you hands before you know it if you think you are getting lucky all of a sudden, control your emotions and stop betting then and there. Most gamblers dont have this self control and they get wiped out by the house edge.

The people who had bought large volumes of bitcoin back in 2009 at 10$/1BTC are the real profitmakers today.

However it is past and people should look in to present and try to earn from it. Holding the coins can be good if you are not into daily trading. However a more profitable way is trading the coins - buying and selling them whenever prices fall/rise respectively.

Yes faucets are a waste of time if you you try to claim all day with nothing else to do will obviously waste your time. Better to develop skills and start offering work on the forum for payments in bitcoin.

Once you have gathered a certain capital, you can easily start trading - bitcoin vs fiat, bitcoin vs altcoin, even altcoin mining and then trading is profitable.

Self control is like the most important tool that you must have if you are going to gamble in the first place.

Strategy has no meaning in gambling in casino games (exclude sportsbetting and poker) - any casino game will make you go broke with any strategy that you try to implement.

Cashing out while still on a winning streak is your safety weapon to save you from your own greed which if not executed, is one of the major reasons why people lose a lot at casinos.

Bitcoin wont lose any reputation - first of all.

Dont compare bitcoin to banks because banks are corrupt who have can get reputation but bitcoin is not. Also price fluctuations are common in any altcoin which is getting accepted and being traded like anything. It is a good source of traders earning.

Hence the price is what has drawn the people to bitcoin.

Not always because many people claim to find gambling as a source of entertainment. However I dont think this is true and that they are actually trying to cover their addiction by saying such. No one finds throwing away money as "fun" when it is your hard earned money. Either that person is too rich or someone tipped them.

But of course addicted gamblers must seek professional help.

People come back because of their greed and by getting enticed by news of someone winning a jackpot.

Many times its just desperate helplessness since they lost a lot, they want to win it back. Both the cases are suicidal because greed kills everyone and chasing losses only leads to more losses.

Maybe you should try to get a job that pays you in bitcoin. Otherwise try mining bitcoins if it is favorable in your place. You can also try trading and gambling. Signature campaigns are good if you have a high rank and worth trying as well.

This is very much possible in any provably fair game and nothing is wrong. This was just your plain luck that went out dry at the wrong time and you ended up losing the money.

In general betting huge does not always guarantee you loads of profits, on the other hand it is the killer that will make you go broke.

I agree that if you can offer your skills you can earn a lot, maybe even become a full-timer if you got these skills. You need to think on what you love to do and then work on that how to develop skills and then how the community can gain from it. That way you can advertise your skills and let clients arrive at you.

However if you have small capital trading may not be easy. It is suggested to collect more capital before you start trading as well.

Many relationships get destroyed due to gambling and many people end up dying or committing suicide not capable to pay debts due to gambling. However the only person responsible for this is the gamblers themselves, since it is their choice to gamble or not

In other words, the only way to stay away from gambling is to exert proper self control and if possible not to gamble at all.

Never trust any scripts you see online. Most of them are actually trying to exploit your greed so that you end up clicking on their shortlinks and install some malware, or steal your balance or inject virus into your system, or hack the account

In short, dont trust them, trust your conscience.

Very true, and people should do so research on the internet about scam casinos before depositing there.

Betting big can make you win big or make you broke in a second. Most of the times it is the latter. Betting huge amounts with small multipliers may be good but you can easily get wiped out by the house edge any second.

You can use any method to gamble. You just need to deposit the money in the casino and start playing with it. However dont think this a get-rich-quick scheme. If you think gambling will make you a millionaire, you are in a fool's paradise and day dreaming.

If you are thinking about investing in bitcoin casino bankrolls then that can be a good option, safer than gambling but like other investments it is for the people with steel-strong nerve not for the panicky people.

Even if you do make a profit dont get addicted to gambling more and more. In the end the casino owners are the real winners since they are running a successful business.

The only strategy is to stop while still on big wins and cash out. Also keeping a target is good, but you may just end up losing more than what you win if you dont have that self control - however it is natural since no one wants to lose their hard earned money.
