The next mistake was to lend money to people without collateral or guarantees. The world is filled with dishonest people that don't keep their word.

I just learned this recently, my experience says just don't lend money in first place to people. It's unnecessary trouble.
I experienced once that a friend asked for loans because he was suffering (it was my university/campus era). We four friends gave him some amount of money but in return we realized he was literally planning a holiday at Mediterranean coastal region at my country. It was my last loan experience. I only give money to people I love. Otherwise no loans given. I tell people that ask money to get a loan from a bank. Even if I win lottery I would do same.
It's all about what kind of nature you have. Some people simply find it difficult to say no to anyone, especially if the one asking is a relative or a close one, they can't say no when they ask for money or anything, and some people will misuse this thing. When they come to know that this person has won a lottery or has gotten a lot of money, they will deliberately go and ask for money even if they don't have that money urgently just because they know the person won't say no.

And, when someone is too decent and naïve, people just take money from them and don't return it knowing that person won't ask them for it and will just keep waiting for them to return the money but they will never do it because they know they are not being forced or asked again and again by the lender.

When I read it, my first impression seemed to be that I was being invited to think about the problem you are telling about, then at the end of the story you are not a hero but a victim. a unique story but, what @pawanjain said is true and that is what actually happened to you for future evaluation.
There is no reality in that story, it's all made up and the lies are very much clear which are also explained by users in this thread earlier. Apart from what everyone has said, I wonder why would the director blame him for the lost coins instead of being worried and asking him to find out what happened because he isn't experienced and he might have missed things up which is generally what would be said by a person in real life but it's just a story.

Sometimes I wonder what comes to the mind of people who sit in front of their devices, and instead of surfing the forum to look for some knowledge and information to gather, they think of creating a made-up story on themselves and see what the community says about it. That's a strange mentality.
723  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: September 18, 2023, 05:12:41 PM
I wanna say Chelsea did try a lot to win this match against Bournemouth. But they were unable to break the deadlock. I honestly thought that Chelsea would probably be able to win this match even though I talk a lot of trash about Chelsea currently. But Chelsea definitely did not succeed in winning. Probably we have to say like you that Chelsea was able to get at least one point from this match, and that is the positive that they have to take right now. Because it is hard to take away any positives from any match that Chelsea plays at this moment.
Chelsea tried and you can see that Pochettino is trying to instill in the team the character of winners, but after a series of bad and terrible matches last season, the players apparently do not believe in themselves and now this is the main task for Pochettino for the season.
Of course, they need to score and preferably score a lot to make the team believe in themselves, but for now a draw will be fine for Chelsea. Losing to a team like Bournemouth would weaken the players' self-belief even more.

In general, there is no quick way out of the crisis for Chelsea, the team is struggling to find itself and even one point in this situation will be helpful.
There are the best remarks I have about Chelsea there is no easy way for them, it's going to take time for the change of mindset and having better results from these players which lost their confidence in last season they have enough quality and good skills but sadly lost their confidence and now Pochettino is doing his best but still its need time for setting all problems.

In early five games they have five points with just one win against newly promoted side Luton in last game against Bournemouth they tried their best but sadly their attack was really impressive struggling Chelsea attack which is lack of confidence despite having good quality and skilled players, but surely things could be change even this all will be taken time.

You don't need to think much about them because they are just showing off. They want people to see their big wins and admire them but they never or rarely show off their losses. Managing money on gambling sites means we only use enough money because we have to limit the money so we don't lose too much money. By depositing a certain amount of money that we can use to gamble, it means we have done our best to avoid losses that could occur. And even if we only use enough money to gamble, it won't reduce the fun moments at the casino.

Maybe you can ask the influencer when they will withdraw their money and see their answer. Maybe they won't want to say when they will withdraw the money or will just say we will withdraw it soon. If I could win a lot of money, I would withdraw the winnings immediately because I don't want to leave a lot of money in my gambling account.
No sensible person would keep more money than they use for gambling in their gambling account because that doesn't make any sense. Gambling is not like trading where you might want to purchase a token or a coin all of a sudden and you might need funds for that so you keep some money as a spare in your account. Gambling is a luck-based thing where you wouldn't want to keep all your money at because you never know when you make a mistake and boom, all of it is gone.

A lot of people make the mistake of clicking the max bet button occasionally and they lose everything they have in their account if the bet doesn't come out as a win, this has even happened with me but fortunately, I didn't have a lot of money in my account but I was never lucky enough to win the bet.
725  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest in new projects. on: September 17, 2023, 07:19:22 PM
Investing in any new project is always risky so before investing you must check the new project thoroughly before investing. We constantly see a lot of new projects in the market, so it is very difficult to find out which project will be real among so many new projects. I have lost my money by investing in several new projects in the past so right now I am completely refraining from investing in new projects. Investing in new projects will definitely show you the temptation to get more profit, but investing in new projects carries a lot of financial risk. Instead of investing in new projects, there are various ALT coins that are currently in a good position in the market.
Checking was not enough because it was still hard to determine if a new project would become successful, pretty no assurance that even the team was solid. In fact, we often fall into scam projects believing that the people behind the new project are real but they're.
I don't say never but if we are smart, we'd rather choose those projects that have already established reputation and trust. Of course, those projects already have use cases and market demand as we can assure that our money won't just vanish in the tin air after buying.
If you do proper research, you will easily find out whether the team behind a new cryptocurrency project is real or not. If the website doesn't give you access to the LinkedIn pages of their team members, it's clearly not a legit project because it is not possible for a project to have an experienced team but they aren't available on LinkedIn since it is the social platform for professionals and every single working individual these days must be available there.

Also, if you closely follow and watch the social channels and their ways of interaction and their tweets and other stuff, you will get an idea about the project. If there isn't much news and updates, there is absolutely no interaction with the users, and there are no partnerships and stuff, then the project surely isn't real.
726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your perception about crypto games? on: September 17, 2023, 06:58:21 PM
I do not understand what you mean that some games do and do not rely on bull run. What I know is that there are many gambling sites on this forum that may not make money in bear market time unlike the bullish time if both are compared. Bullrun or bear market does not affect any game. But if it affects any game, the gambling site will be the one that will know better, not the gamblers.
You’re exactly right in there. The bearish or bullish market does not determine whether these crypto games may probably decrease its value or not. But as long as there are crypto games lovers that consistently play on them, these types of games will never be gone out in the market. And if ever they will, only the gambling sites will feel it and will highly be affected.
I don't know if you guys understand this or not but a crypto or blockchain game doesn't have anything to do with a casino because those games are not played in casinos but they have their own projects and platforms where users play the games, an example of a blockchain or crypto game is Axie Infinity, it is one of the most popular blockchain games that is played by thousands of people around the globe and they also earn money by playing that game.

So, if we talk about bull and bear markets and their effects on these games, then we need to understand that market conditions do affect the profitability of the games for the players because they earn tokens by playing the game and if the market is down, the tokens will obviously be sold at a lower price.
727  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake phishing on: September 17, 2023, 06:08:45 PM
About the IP address, there won't be any I think.
Maybe they are accessing the account through the victims computer.

Sure he used the phishing link to log in but he said he has 2FA. If that's true the hacker only has 30 seconds to use the same 2FA code to also login. After that what can he do? You need 2FA to withdraw or tip any money to other accounts, so there is not enough time anyway.

If they use the account through the infected device there would just be the victims IP and no other one.
There is also a possibility that the hacker was using a VPS (Virtual Private Server) service while doing the operations and a VPS wouldn't have the IP address of where the hacker is but it will have an IP address based on the location of the VPS and that can be anywhere in the world. So, I don't really think that OP could get any clue or anything even if the casino management had supplied him the IP address that used his Stake account at that hour.

It's OP's mistake, obviously, and he definitely have learned his lesson. These things teach us that there is no free money anywhere in the world and that we should also never trust emails or messages or any other medium of receiving a promotion unless we are 100% sure that it's official.
728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Appropriate percentage of income for gambling on: September 17, 2023, 07:44:02 AM
Before when I gambled I make around 10 percent to 20 percent of my income for the whole month those are quite enough to make fun and entertainment to my gambling satisfaction but of course currently the inflation gets too expensive and its too hard to make a good savings at all so right now with the recent percentage get lessen sometimes it takes me over couple of months again before to play or just around 20 USD just to gambling with the sports or e-sports game. All or nothing game.
I believe 20% is a very large amount even if you are earning a lot of money or less, it takes a big chunk of your salary which you can use for something more useful. However, it depends on one's personal preferences and their responsibilities. A person who has a family to take care of would probably not be able to use that much money just on gambling in a month because they will have a lot of responsibilities and we all know how hard it can get sometimes.

I also agree with you that inflation has badly affected almost every single thing that we used to do. Even if we talk about food and stuff and if we don't earn a lot of money we have to compromise on their quality since we can't buy high-quality ones as they are too expensive and it will drain our pockets.
729  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Appromixly how much time needs to recover BNB $310 price on: September 16, 2023, 07:18:21 PM
Bnb prices down after SEC issue happens in june 2023 and from that time we have seen constantly decrease in price. First price dump to 250$ and now further dumps to 210$. I think you have not seen the chart, previously when btc price was above 31k bnb was trading around 260$ so OP is right that only bull market could bring price back to 310$.
Please open both charts again and check the candle between 3rd May to 6th May, you will see that Bitcoin was around maybe $29k and BNB was trading above $310 at that time, so I did check the charts and I followed the market very closely. I said BNB was around that range when Bitcoin was around $31k which I know wasn't accurate because the price of Bitcoin was changing positions between $28k to $31k and this was the case for about 6 months or more.

When Bitcoin was around $31k last time and BNB crashed because of the case against Binance, but before that case and the FUD and everything, BNB was trading above $300, and that is why I said it doesn't require a bull run to achieve that target as long as BNB stays clear from the cases and stuff.
730  Economy / Gambling / Re: Project feedback on: September 16, 2023, 06:01:39 PM
The point is how to maintain your subscriber after they already subscribe your site.

I don't think those casinos are willing to give free bet to one user that could cost them to spend money in case the gambler is lucky enough. The casinos might see you have a good amount subscribers, but there's no proof if your site are active.

So you need to have something to do about this case.
Obviously they need to try hard and improve their site. They also need to listen to the requests of their customer. So many casinos are giving a free bet. If they want to, they can put some catch so that they can make sure that the players can take home the money that they made out of their free bets, and they can only make money through it.

There is a way to tell if a site is active. Those who want to make some deals can check it out first if it matters to them. A lot of casinos are already doing a news letter and some of them provides a bonus. There are also casino review sites which can do the same thing. Is your main service a casino review site, huh @OP?
731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Appromixly how much time needs to recover BNB $310 price on: September 16, 2023, 01:54:45 PM
It is not even all that much, we are talking about a 50% increase, as in 1.5x increase. When you think about how binance was attacked, being this far away from 310 is still fine. I believe that the moment we reach the bull run we are going to end up with a good result, better than what we have seen so far. Life is not that simple and it should be important to realize that we could make some sort of profit when we can.

Hopefully it is not going to be that easy to handle all of this at the same time, but we could end up with a good result eventually. We just wish that life is not that difficult in the end and could make a good change one way or another. I believe that we are going to be doing something profitable in the end.
It doesn't even need the bull run for BNB to recover back to $310 because when Bitcoin was around $31k, the price of BNB was above that range, so all it needs is Bitcoin to recover from the current range and go back near its previous resistance which was $31k and then we will see BNB recovering the desired price by OP. For the bull run, we would obviously expect BNB to show some magic and maybe go around $1k if Bitcoin manages to go across it's previous all-time high.

Above $1k is my target price for BNB in the bull run because it went around $686 last time when Bitcoin went to $69k, and if Bitcoin manages to hit $90k or more this time around, we should probably see BNB performing as well as long as Binance stays clear and there aren't any issues at that time.
732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: September 16, 2023, 07:05:18 AM
I haven't seen anything about the game except that Neymar didn't score and he was only substituted later in the game. What was the reason that he again did not start the game when he actually played a whole game for Brazil? I would really like to understand the theory behind that. It was also a home game, which would have made the perfect setup for him to play in front of his own audience. I guess they have been careful again or something because he had played so much for Brazil after his injury and now they didn't want to risk anything, but that should still be the other way around and he should be playing more for his club than for the national team. 
Al Hilal is already very strong team, and they are doing impressive job in the early rounds of this season so Neymar who was injured now just recovered and came after national duty just because of this Al Hilal management bring him as substitute because they are not taking any risk with in near future things are going to be more heated while we have good performance from the other top teams, so he could be more important in big games as they are looking for the title and have tough competition from the Al Ittihad and Al Nassr both are also impressive.

Still this was ideal start for the Neymar because his contribution helps his team for winning by a big margin and now in future we can expect much better performance from him and this club as well.
733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can money be saved in gambling sites? on: September 15, 2023, 06:10:45 PM
Why would you want to save money on a gambling site despite the fact that there are various types of investment and money saving mediums like bank deposits, gold, silver, real estate, bitcoins in the country? lol. Saving money on a gambling site is the same as putting meat in front of a tiger's mouth. So it would be one of the worst thoughts if one wants to save money on gambling sites. A gambler can never control himself when there is money on the gambling site and he will rush to gamble with that money. and lose that money
I think we should keep whatever money we have as deposit in the bank. We will deposit in the gambling site as much money as we can gamble and enjoy and if all the money is kept in the gambling site then we will be very stupid. Many people while gambling.  There are people who cannot control themselves so if one starts gambling with all his money in a gambling site then when he loses some money there is a possibility of losing all money to recover that money.
It's not just about having no self-control and gambling it all away, because if you are addicted and have no self-control, you will still gamble everything you have even if it's in the bank or your crypto wallet which can be easily deposited which isn't a big deal, but, a casino is not a place to store your cryptocurrencies or money, if you are not using that money for gambling, simply keep it somewhere where it can be safe from attacks and account breaches.

You can barely hear about a person's non-custodial wallet getting compromised and their funds getting stolen, but you will always hear news about casino platforms getting hacked, user accounts being compromised and scammers and hackers stealing millions of dollars from the platform. I bet one wouldn't want to be a victim of that.
734  Economy / Gambling / Re: what are the best crypto casinos! on: September 15, 2023, 05:40:00 PM
      -     The ones I tried playing there were slot games and stakes, bcgames and wolf bet and the best I gambled on was bcgames. It's not that I'm promoting it, because the first time if I won here on this platform (bcgames) around 115$, no one even asked me to submit kyc and then in less than 1hr at that time, I immediately released what I won in their slot games platform.

after the stakes, I have never experienced winning there while at wolfbet I have also experienced my winning there, but I suddenly stopped there,  because they have removed a lot of gimmicks in their platform.
On bc game, i had made $100 from depositing only $3, but after reaching $100 then i withdrawn it to stake but on stake my bad luck i busted my account.
i don't know why but when i play on stake i always lose just withdrawn my crypto sometimes or kept in vault. but stake is a good platform to play on.
I bet you would also lose that money if you hadn't withdrawn it from BC.Game and had played to get more which is basically what you did by withdrawing the money and then depositing it at a different platform only so that you can win more with it which barely happens in gambling. A gambler can only be on the positive side if they know when they should stop gambling because if you have won something already but you still try to win more, the house will beat you eventually.

A responsible gambler would barely gamble after winning something, even if they do, they will at least withdraw and keep aside 50% of the total amount including the initial bankroll, so that if they lose the remaining 50%, they would still have some money that they can use to try their luck later on.
735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: September 14, 2023, 07:14:02 PM
There's nothing bad in having upto three account and when you attain a VIP status, then you have been found committed to their website and also make use of huge amount in gambling which they noticed, also don't assume that one can get addicted because of the rate of amount used in gambling or because he has attained a particular position which means he would have been addicted in gambling, there are many gamblers making bets daily and yet aren't addicted because they know what they are doing, no aspect of their life is being affected and they have their own money to always use in gambling.
Even if there is nothing wrong in it, but what's the point of having three VIP accounts at different casino platforms? If you gamble for fun, you can have fun just at a single casino platform, unless there are certain games that you like on other platforms and you gamble there just because of that, other than that, I don't see any reason why one should spend so much money on all their accounts to make them reach VIP statuses only for the bonuses.

Instead of doing that, one should do some research and find the casino that has the best VIP program where they will get the most useful perks for being a VIP and then they should spend all their time and money on that account to make it reach VIP level to get the perks that they are chasing.
736  Economy / Economics / Re: To afford personal education or a property? Where to allocate funds? on: September 14, 2023, 06:30:34 PM
It is a bit unclear what is "personal education" and "superior course" ? Just a regular education that open door to something more exclusive and unique? And it is unclear what is the size of the budget. I mean, a person can choose property option, get passive income and in some years get that "personal education". It is property, that gives profit now, and education, that only might give profit later. Dont forget, that education, without experience, skills and funding is just theory.
I do agree with you that, the value of skills and experience is much more than education because we can always see that companies that hire workers usually check whether they have experience and skills rather than have a lot of degrees, I know that they also need you to have a certain degree to be able to apply for the position, but there are a lot of occasions in life where your education won't be of help if you lack the necessary skills and experience.

So, it's always better if someone can start building assets at an early age so that when they grow bigger, they won't need to be dependent on someone else or struggle to make money while also trying to pursue their education. If you already have the money problem solved, you can always get your education completed without any problems.
737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling by financial dependents. on: September 14, 2023, 05:48:35 PM
Some casinos allow 18 years old to gamble, but others prefer to let those who are 18 years old above play just to be on the safer side of the law. So it really depends on where you are residing. However, since it's a matter of parenting, I believe that as long as you are still living within the same roof as your parents, meaning you are still under their care and everything is still being provided for you by them, it's just right to abide by their rules. Their house, their rules.

At 18 years old, if you really want to make decisions on your own, you can move out and live the life that you want without being monitored or dictated by anyone. Be independent if you want to sustain your gambling desires. But if you can't, then just stop. After all, a weekly allowance is still given by the parents. It's not as if you earned them.
Times have changed nowadays, kids used to be more obedient back in the day compared to the kids of today. Children nowadays don't listen to their parents after reaching a certain age because they start thinking that they are now big enough, they can do everything themselves and they should make their own decisions, and from that point onwards, they stop following what their parents tell them even if they are residing under their roof for now.

This is the biggest reason why children nowadays move out of their parent's house and live by themselves because they want to be independent. Those who manage to survive just stay alone, and those who find it very difficult to manage everything will go back and then ask for forgiveness from their parents.
738  Economy / Gambling / Re: Slot Educational on: September 14, 2023, 03:58:23 PM
That's interesting. I have never seen a country or region where gambling has surpassed so much that they need to have a parade to make more gambling awareness. I mean will that be ever useful? I don't think that it will be because it is just gonna be a fun party for some time, peeps will watch it, walk around it for some time, may be take a few pics and videos for their social accounts and then they will forget about it.

Did it affect me in any way? Since I keep playing slots and other gambling games all the time, we should be the right candidates to ask this question. The answer is hell no. I am now having more questions about why they had it, whose behind it, and where is it from?

I think all this addiction thing can only be controlled by self-awareness. No one can help us, not our friends, parents, loved ones or neighbours but only self awareness.
Well, maybe not self-awareness alone but it is obviously the first thing that a person must have to be able to control gambling addiction because someone who doesn't even know that they are in trouble can never be helped since they would never ask for help. But, if someone is well aware about the situation they are in and they know they are in trouble, they can always ask for a helping hand and a friend or someone from the family can be that helping hand.

These parades and seminars and everything might make a small difference but I also don't think that they can actually make someone stop gambling forever. These things can't make someone safe from getting addicted to gambling or help them get out of their addiction if they are already addicted.
739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling beginners must not joke with casino announcement on: September 14, 2023, 08:42:39 AM
A good casino should also know how to handle jokes, LOL.

Well, if they have an ANN thread here, they can report to the mods if they think that the post violates the forum rules, or they can make it self-moderated. Jokes nowadays are already normal; we all know that new casinos are hoping to be successful, and every casino starts as a newbie in the gambling world, right? But that's the challenge there; they can't dictate what people think or say about them, so they have to address all of that in a professional manner.

When we say jokes, it affects our emotions, but casinos don't address things emotionally, so that's nothing.
It's true, a professional representative of a casino should be able to handle such things with calmness and grace so that the reputation of the casino stays intact because if they start getting angry and overreacting over a joke, that wouldn't leave a very good impression over the viewers who might be spectating the ANN and reading all the messages, this can badly affect the growth of the platform since people wouldn't want to join a casino that can't handle things like this.

If I talk about personal opinion, I would probably avoid a casino where I can see that the staff isn't professional because the same staff will be managing the reports, complaints, issues, and everything within the platform and I wouldn't want to be playing under an unprofessional team that might not even be able to handle an issue I might face.
740  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you risking investment in other things? on: September 12, 2023, 06:44:05 PM
but asides real estate, what else are you risking the money you should to invest more in bitcoins on?
For me personally, if we focus on one investment goal, for example Bitcoin, of course I only aim at one thing to do it, shares or real estate for me are different things and different paths, of course Bitcoin investment and real estate are two different things.

And if we talk about halving, it is one of the problems that happens every 4 years, it only happens to Bitcoin, not to real estate, real estate is more about objects, such as land, etc., likewise shares are also different things.

The point is: investing in Bitcoin with real estate investments is in the opposite direction, but it is also possible that there are people who do it, if they have excess money, I mean it is not used in Bitcoin investment, what is certain is that I remain focused on only one path in terms of investment, namely Bitcoin, if I believe in it.
Why does one need to focus only on one investment option, anyway? You can always keep maintaining your investments both in real estate and Bitcoin if you can afford to do that, but since real estate investment requires a very large capital, it is not possible for everyone to be able to make investments in it and that is the reason why most people prefer investments in Bitcoin, but if someone has enough money and they can do it, it's a great thing to do.

I would personally never withdraw my investment from real estate just to invest the money in Bitcoin because real estate is a more stable investment and has way less risk than Bitcoin since the price of Bitcoin is too volatile and there is always a risk of market crash which barely happens with real estate.
