Did you read the ToS before depositing or did you just make an account and deposit. I'm not an employee of trustdice, but this could look like a competitor site leaving a piss poor review.
He doesn't wear any signature also to use that upset as an advantage and promote competitor.

In your opinion, someone must have a signature with the casino's name to be competitor?
There are a huge number of people on this forum who constantly create negative stories about casinos. I wonder how many of them are dissatisfied users and how many were invented by the competitors..
2  Economy / Economics / Re: Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing. on: June 12, 2023, 06:55:16 PM
Do you think social media is now becoming more a place for business than socializing, Could it be as a result of digitalization and things moving online or more people now starting business online because of need to somehow generate income or another source of income for self to survive the economic situations which is becoming tougher?



I do not think that business and socializing can be summed up in the same meaning, but they are intertwined and inseparable. If you look at the fact that socializing and trading are basically the same thing - selling (advertising) or buying (asking) something we need in our life. Usually socializing costs us only time. However, in some cases it can cost money. Businesses are extremely social, because they have to be. Otherwise they fall into disregard and eventually just dry out.

You cannot earn any money without socializing. That is why many people say the customer is king.
many people use socail media as a great tool for business and they really put in a lots of effort. If you think it is an easy task then you are wrong about it.

Op to talk is easy but reality is hard. We all know that gambling is choice but those rogues compel people to play those games with magic first gambler win. The way they mix those cards, stone and other objects for the game too is something else. Then among them one of them will play the game and the way he would play the game would be very easy that ordinary you would be thinking that it is not hard. And that is why they always allow you to win the first game and subsequent ones you will be losing all. Online games never attract but you go there by yourself. But those rogues attract you with their magic games.
That is true and it is surly a personal choice.
most of the people chose to gamble for fun and later they are addicted to it and they cannot leave it for life.

ICC fined India 100%, Australia 80%, Shubman Gill 15%.

ICC fined India and Australia separately for the World Test Championship final, ICC fined India 100% and Australia 80%. India penalized 100% for going 5 overs short of the allotted time and Australia 80% for going 4 overs short. The ICC rules state that failure to complete an over within the stipulated time will result in a fine of 20% per over.

Additionally, Indian cricketer Shubman Gill was fined 15 per cent of his match fee and given a demerit point for his controversial post on social media following a controversial dismissal. According to ICC rules, no player can make any controversial post about the game on social media. However, he posted a social media post with an emoji caption of Cameron Greene's controversial catch and the ICC punished him based on that post.
But I do not understand why someone should be punished because they just do not agree on something with the ICC. The player can post about anything he wants as long as it does not cause any problems to any place, religion, or ethnicity. He thought it was controversial and probably should’ve gone the other way and that’s why he posted about that. I don’t see anything wrong with that. And one player saying that it should have gone the other way does not prove the ICC wrong. Giving him a fine is something that indicates ICC being wrong.

I also agree with you on this. Shubman Gill did not find anything reliable. For this reason he can express his emotions on social media and it is a personal opinion. I think ICC could have been more careful here because of Shubman Gill's post. They could see if there was any mistake or not. But not having that opportunity seems questionable to me. I don't know why Shubman Gill made such a post after knowing about it. But he may have done so out of anger. Even with having technology, such complaints cannot be accepted. I think a longer period of observation should be used rather than not giving a controversial decision.
great names should be careful while making public post - social media has made a very strong impact on the lives of people.
These sportsman should think million time before making a controversal post

Even though he hasn't been able to provide a trophy for Al-Nassr, Ronaldo has been successful enough to prove that he is still productive in scoring goals. In 16 matches with Al-Nassr, Ronaldo managed to become #2 as the top scorer of the clubs under Talisca. he success with 14 goals, while Talisca with 20 goals. So, it is not impossible that next season with a full playing schedule, Ronaldo can give his first trophy for Al-Nassr. So far there has been no disciplinary action reported. This means that he has no regrets about his decision to play at Al-Nassr.
I think it's very natural that Ronaldo failed to bring Al nassr to become champions in his first season with Al Nassr, because as we know he went to Al nassr to be precise in the second half of the season which made him not have much time to help the club win the title in  this season. But another thing that is special is that he was able to make many big contributions to al nassr in other words he became the second top scorer on the al nassr team, which indicates that Ronaldo is still very aggressive in front of the opponent's goal.

Well next season I think Al nassr will be more difficult to provide resistance to al ittihad because Al ittihad surprisingly they managed to bring in Benzema to strengthen their squad in defending the title for next season.
but Ronaldo has brought to saudi fans big moments and great memories
The only bad news is Messi not being able to join SPL

Gamble with the amount of money that you can afford to lose. If you can afford to lose $2000, then you can gamble with it. If you see gambling as a way of making money, that is the worst indiscipline that you have in gambling, never depend on gambling at all other than seeing it as fun and entertainment and not going beyond that.
I second with you not always what you have on your mind would be the same and could bring you good luck , gambling is hard and you can loose all your money for nothing in return . . mark my word and be careful and always think of plan B

Think of when you hit a jackpot, and some cool cash slide into your pocket, you feels better and step up some pride and involved arrogance, you feel like you can buy the world with your peanuts lol, bro, I little shopping out of it can makes you look like a poor man again. There is this oil dealer guy in my community who happen to be hot market pro in the oil industry, he owns an oil well but this guy it gets to his head and start contesting for political power which he has lose twice now and the worst of it now is that the oil well is dried because suck the money into politics, loss everything. This money is never really enough, no wonder even the President of nations still fights to get money after office.
sometimes if you don't have debt over you and you are leading a middle class life - the jackpot can be helpful and you can fulfill your dreams
But dealing and managing the jack pot is an art too. I have seen people falling in the hands of thughs when they have money. People would try to grab the last penny you would have in your account so be careful keep your success hidden from the fools and greedy people.

Here's list of players that have been linked to the arabian club

1. Benzema
2. Ramos
3. Messi
4. Busquets
5. Modric
6. Who's next?

Benzema has been deciding to follow ronaldo to go to the ittihad while modric has been also receiving very big contract from unnamed club. I hope that will be revealed soon like benzema which has been getting offer from ittihad.

So many players with big names come to the spl. That's good. Messi is likely the next one.
Karim Benzema's Al Ittihad deal confirmed. The striker left Real Madrid and joined Al Ittihad of the Saudi League. Not only Karim Benzema has joined the Saudi league from Europe, there are also chances of several famous players. Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos are expected to join the Saudi league later on. Since Messi's situation is almost uncertain, but Sergio Ramos is very likely to join the Saudi league. So after Karim Benzema, maybe Sergio Ramos will be far ahead in the direction of the Saudi League.
Saudia is a rich state and can invest millions and billions on the players. they would also be great host and would treat their players with respect.
Life is Saudia is good too. Messi has joined inter miami now - had he been coming to Saudi Professional league there would be great matches football fans would be viewsing now all our hopes have died.
9  Economy / Economics / Re: Quit borrowing on: June 11, 2023, 12:52:40 PM
The majority of us live beyond our means, which is one of the primary causes of our ever-increasing habit of borrowing money. Simply put, incomings are outpacing outgoings. It's also getting worse.
This is the main problem that greatly affects the financial condition. income exceeds expenditure is a virus that must be overcome in managing finances. When your financial condition is down, you must be wise in borrowing money because there are several risks that will arise if your finances jam or fail to pay at maturity, one of the risks that cannot be avoided is that the installments will get bigger because the interest and fines continue to increase.
Policies in spending are needed to maintain financial health, you must control your money properly by cutting expenses and spending money wisely. Borrowing money to fulfill desires is not recommended because it will become a burden when paying due to not having a side income source.

The trend of 'living for the now' has indeed led to an unsettling 'outgoings > incomings' equation in many households. That's why we see the millennial generation dubbed as the "debt generation".

The wisdom to borrow is important but often overlooked. Lending platforms will always be happy to dish out loans but forget to add the disclaimer about the snowballing effect of interest and fines. It's like buying a smartphone on a plan and realizing later you could have bought two for the price you end up paying!

However, the solution isn't as straightforward as cutting expenses. It's about understanding needs versus wants and planning expenditures accordingly. A common saying among personal finance geeks is "Don't save what is left after spending; spend what is left after saving". Implementing such simple financial principles could be a starting point to financial prudence.


the main thing in borrowing is the the character of the person. Some people and businesses are not good enough to be trusted. They can borrow money and can vanish. while others are very particular about dealing with their finances and these the successful people and business.
10  Economy / Economics / Re: Can I take a loan to invest in bitcoin? on: June 11, 2023, 12:33:54 PM
My opinion about taking a bitcoin loan is to first know bitcoin well and understand where you are investing. How much it will be profitable for you at all since you will be investing with debt. Because i am talking about the Bitcoin market is very volatile. No one can tell you for sure that investing in Bitcoin will make you profitable. It is true that investing here will yield huge profits but there is no telling when it will happen. The Bitcoin market fluctuates a lot. So I think it is not right to invest in Bitcoin loans. Why I am saying this is that if you buy Bitcoin with a loan, its value may decrease in a short period of time For this it is better not to invest by borrowing.
There are benefits and disadvantages. Leveraging a loan to invest can double your investment risk.
If you are luck and your investment performs well. Then surely you will be over the moon but on the other hand if it performs poor then you no longer losses the money but then you have obligation to repay the money or loan you have borrowed.

I see now that Moutinho from Wolves could be the next to join the Saudi League. It’s a real shame Messi didn’t go there but that just proves that money can’t buy everything. It’s a really different life out there but it doesn’t seem to be stopping multiple older stars from swapping Europe for Saudi Arabia. Will be really interesting to see how the league develops over the next few years.
I think they will keep chasing Messi because at the end thats the legend they would be needing
Messi won't take long and retire, i'm pretty sure of that, he would either retire in Miami or maybe go back to either Barcelona or even Newell's Old Boys and reitre there, but there are still other players that they can bring to lift the league even more and make it more interesting to foreigners like Di Maria, Modric...etc
So Messi is a smart guy - he visited the places with family to decide where he would be going. Now he will play in States.
Al Hialal just failed to sign deal with him. However Al Nasser management was strong to have signed Ronaldo.

the problem with some people really is that if they don't experience it they don't prepare on it like what happened also to us before when my grandmother still alive , because we are like easy go lucky and just thinking about the insurance as we though there are no excess in her getting hospitalize we haven't prepared but then that time comes we are so broke and a lot of loans and debts that is why we learn a lot of lesson that time and starting that time we do have really savings for hospitalization even small at least we do have spare money for that.
life is not easy and we have to take a lots of decisions in our lives but then there are people who are crazy to think that they will change the world are the one who really do. These are the people who thinks and dare to take the risky step and these are the inspirtation

14  Economy / Economics / Re: Try to save money while you still can, will you ? on: June 10, 2023, 11:43:08 PM

Correct you need to understand that there's differences between saving and investing, if you plan to invest and you don't want to use it for emergency make sure that you are using spare for that particular investment, you need to have seperate savings for emergency purpose to make sure that you will not use your invested money, there's chance that if you force to use invested money the value is at loss and you don't have choice but to withdraw so it's always better to have extra for this kind of purposes.
and then there is difference between luck and bad luck and when world says "give up'' hope wishpers try it one more time
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Try to save money while you still can, will you ? on: June 09, 2023, 10:01:42 PM
Although I can't save money. I can't save money. It happens that my expenses are more than my income. But I think every person should save money. Because what do you do when you are old and can't do anything? Then you have to ask someone. It is very important to save money for treatment. Nowadays, people have the most difficult diseases, which require a lot of money. Therefore, it is very important to save money.
If it's important, then save from now even though your income is small. Because that's not the only reason for anyone not to save money in their life, especially if it is to maintain their health and to balance their life in old age if someone doesn't get a pension from the government. Apart from saving money from now on, everyone can also invest in real estate and also in currencies like Bitcoin because these two things can also help someone manage their old age better.
Saving is a good thing - but no at the cost of other people's expense
some people would save as much money but they would be ruining the finances of other people for their own pleasure.

I have a friend who has been a victim of this scam before and since then we have becime careful on the kind of games we involve with because alot of times we have to be able to control our urge and freed , because these is the two primary things that drag us into scam and we call them one chance.
that is correct - I too have witnessed someone who has been horribly been scammed and he have had a severe brain stroke and suffered mental and physical trauma
after that he had never gambled.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: June 09, 2023, 09:46:29 PM
They should change that mindset and quit right away before they lose control and end up placing another bet. They can expect to win big but also have to admit that it is not easy to get and they might lose all their money, especially if they intend to recover previous losses where it will be even more difficult. The pattern "high risk, high reward, but we need to be wise before deciding" is something that must be owned so that we realize that gambling is just entertainment and nothing more. Don't chase something from gambling but let it come alone while you just want to enjoy gambling.
In order to avoid more severe addiction, you really have to change your mindset in a more positive way, acknowledging that gambling is not a place to gain profit except for luck.
from a positive mindset a gambler will definitely gamble casually without any pressure even though losing never has the intention to chase that loss. so gamblers who already have a mindset like that certainly can't become crazy gambling addicts and are usually calmer and usually always get small luck.
i think you cannot change the mind and attitude of people around. Living and dealing with different people is not an easy task and deal with gamblers is not an easy task though.

There are speculations that he was given a bigger deal in Inter Miami than the one given from the Saudi side club, Al Hilal. Even after he retires from football, the contract will last a long time. I'm sure it has some stakes in valuable enterprises and companies in the United States that will net him significantly more money in the long run. It seemed like a decent idea and a good move to me, and I wish him the best of luck in his new career path.
Well messi has officially rejected Al hillal's offer to join them, He prefers mls as his target for next season and it became a reality after messi clarified this on social media. Apart from that I think al hilal can do signings for other star players which they can do to strengthen the squad in the next season.

I think the Saudi Arabian League competition next season in the race for the title will be even more exciting because Al Ittihad recently brought in two quality players where Kante and Benzema are figures who will help Al Ittihad to defend the title next season. Apart from that, Al Nassar seems to be targeting top European players to provide the right duel for Ronaldo next season.
so the rumours were right - but Messi made his decision
We wish him Good luck - but we were looking fwd for the great match had he been joining SPL

It's amazing, but many gamblers play casinos just to get rid of the money. Many writers, musicians and poets have played in casinos and lost large sums of money. They had no money after they lost and to support themselves they wrote their works. Losing was an inspiration to them.
Some people are rich and they dont care about their loses while the others are psychopath and they would try to pick pocket of everyone to get as much money as they could.
I have seen these kind of people who would run away with the wealth of other people and yet be at ease.
20  Economy / Economics / Re: MONEY IS THE MOTIVATING FACTOR, what do you think? on: June 09, 2023, 09:39:29 PM
Money serves to be a necessary one along with the basic needs of our life. The bad part is looking to have beyond our needs. When we consume water or food beyond our need, it doesn't give fulfillment but kind of uneasy situation. Considering it in mind it is good to go with some limitations when it comes to money. It is the one that have got the ability to completely change our character and behaviour. At any time we shouldn't be a slave for money.
Money makes the world go round.
You are right we should not be slave of money but we should earn as much money as we  could so that we lead a comfortable life.
