Gambling is about luck, even those who are lucky still lose in gambling, it is very impossible to win all your bet in gambling. I would suggest if you gamble don’t think too much, just have fun and enjoy the moment because the more you think about what if you’ll lose, possibility is you will really lose. Just be optimistic, have fun and most especially, have self control.

I spend time in bitcoin because it’s the one who helped improved my way off living, It didn’t come to my mind that it is a waste of time. I think the only person who will say its a waste of time are those who don’t really know what bitcoin is and its benefits. Having the chance to get to know bitcoin is one of the things i’m thankful of because it made my life even better.

Seriously, 2019 has only just begun and people are already spreading doom and gloom about the crypto market.  All the people calling bitcoin dead will be crying when it hits 20k again.  Take advantage of the bear market and use this time to accumulate cheap while people are sitting here with thumbs in their mouth.

That’s true! 2019 is another year and a lot is still bad mouthing bitcoin. While they cry will just laugh at them of being so ignorant, they just don’t know what bitcoin is and what bitcoin can do. I know one day they’ll eat their words most especially if bitcoin hits 20k or more.

Well as for me, it is very user-friendly, I really find it very easy to make transaction through bitcoin. Just learn the basics and your good to go. Besides, with todays advancement, the technology has improved a lot and with those improvements it made it more user-friendly and convenient.
1865  Economy / Economics / Re: Price of goods goes up, salary never goes up!!! on: May 17, 2019, 11:10:01 AM
I couldn’t agree more, with the price of goods & services continue to go up, the salaries of employees is becoming small each and everyday, your lucky if you’re able to make few savings from your salary but others were drown to debts because there salaries is not enough to cover their needs. That’s why some would fine any other ways to improve there way of life some may even try gambling just to try their luck. Well, its very sad but its the reality!
1866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is an entertainment? on: May 17, 2019, 09:10:06 AM
It depends but for me gambling is just for entertainment, I don’t gamble to make a living or what not but just to have fun. Regardless if I have incurred gains or not, its fine because the most important thing is I had fun while  doing so. Gambling is said to be mere luck so why put extra effort in gambling when it can only stress you out.
1867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: May 17, 2019, 07:56:01 AM
For the lucky ones they would say they’ve found success in gambling but others say no success in gambling. It actually depends, but as for me who gamble occasionally, I can say I did find success in gambling, don’t get me wrong, I lost too couple of times which is normal but overall I was able to gain small profits from gambling. It’s only small because I only do it for fun and I only gamble small amount too.
1868  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin has reached 8000$, then what? on: May 17, 2019, 03:44:07 AM
the market goes up and you're still asking " then what?" take advantage of the moment to gain profits, don't waste the opportunity that already exists.

That’s correct, same as the saying “Strike the iron while it’s hot”. I guess he still want to wait to be higher more before he’ll take advantage about the increase. I just hope it’ll not decrease and it will increase even more to get more profits.
1869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any knows the mathematical formula to winning the lottery? on: May 17, 2019, 03:22:13 AM
If there had been formulas for this, then mathematicians would've spent their time for this and a lot of them would've been lottery winners by now. I think no such thing exists since lottery is really created to be a game of chance.

I agree, if it has something to do with mathematical formulas then I guess a lot of mathematicians might have been millionaires or billionaires by now. I just don’t understand how are they able to come up with that idea that mathematical formula is the key to get lottery winning numbers. I think they put so much effort on hanging onto that idea when in fact those formulas are useless.
1870  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I LOST OVER 10 BTC IN GAMBLING IN 2018 on: May 17, 2019, 02:57:46 AM
Maybe you are having lot of money to spend,that is why you can't.If you don't have any money how can you gamble again after exhausting your previous balance.

That’s right, because if he doesn’t have resources left in his wallet he should have stopped already or else one possibility is that he might have borrowed from friends or family in the effort of recovering the losses but instead he lose more and it reached to 10 BTC. I just hope he didn’t do the latter because it’ll be a big problem and it will be stressful as well.
1871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I LOST OVER 10 BTC IN GAMBLING IN 2018 on: May 17, 2019, 01:55:21 AM
If you dont have discipline then most likely you will fail.

Discipline has no link to gambling.

you don't gamble with discipline. That would mean you intend to have a strategy and to win.
You can't have a strategy. it's useless.

I think it has, it is more like discipline not to be addicted to gambling, if you have discipline or self control then you will not lose huge money such as 10 BTC. But I guess 10 BTC loss is too much, it only means that the gambler don’t have both discipline when to quit or not and don’t have the right strategy.
1872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: May 17, 2019, 12:53:50 AM
NBA games are so hard to predict. I know basketball very well, but to predict NBA regular season is really a challenge. I am much better with Euroleague basketball. Reason? Well NBA is just a show in a regular season. Just in playoffs they start playing hard and as they are supposed to. Just like Euroleague guys are doing everything singlegame game.

Anyways, I will give my best with the NBA this season. I wish luck to everyone!

I agree, these guys are so good that they can turn tables around. There are times that in NBA gives people surprises in the end of who will win.  Cheesy Anyways, good luck to your prediction for this year, hope you’ll be able to predict right this time.
1873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction becomes more popular with young people over time on: May 17, 2019, 12:34:42 AM

I don't agree with the research that gambling effects young mind and people only, as in my experience it's the aged seniors who're often playing and are addicted more to gambling. While it's true gambling does creates excitement in the mind of young gamblers, but they're able to get out of it. However when you look at seniors these're people who're constantly addicted and are often seen playing huge bets be it land based casinos or online ones.

Also you do not get merits for posting links, improve your language skills, participate more in discussions if people like your post naturally then they'll give you merits.

I totally agree, as what i’ve observe young people do gamble but it is more like for fun and it did not come to a point of addiction unlike aged people. And I observed as well that  those aged people have higher chances of losing huge amount of money since they put huge bets. If a person us already addicted so much to gambling, it is vert hard for them to get out of this, that article may have included ways to stop it but it’s easy to say than done.

Ang bitcoin ay tinaguriang hari ng cryptocurrency for many years na at sa tingin ko kahit man bumababa ang presto nya sa ngayon eh matatakot kana, normal sa market yan na may bumababa kasi hindi naman lahat ang bagay eh pataas lang palagi and mas importante eh kung sa baba nyan eh kaya bang bumangon uli.
1875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about the gambling site's having a promotion? on: May 16, 2019, 02:55:04 PM
I think it is more like a marketing strategy that gambling sites have in place to attract people in getting into their websites. It is like they’ll let newcomers to experience how the game works for a while and then along the way the gambler will then win by the time as you go on and try your luck it will lead to addiction without you realizing it and you’ll end up paying for gambling thinking that you’ll win.
1876  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN THE ONLY KING, NO DISPUTE on: May 16, 2019, 12:49:19 PM
it is pretty evident, even with the present market value now, no coin is having a higher value than bitcoin,and it has been a role model for other altcoin. if it is difficult to make something out of bitcoin by now, be sure you can never have a little to get from all other altcoin. moreso, bitcoin is the most famous of all.

I agree, bitcoin has its own up and down trend in the market but was able to recover right back. Yes, there are a lot of altcoins now in the market but nothing has surpassed bitcoin which only means that bitcoin is indeed the only king.
1877  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you need cash for everyday use? on: May 16, 2019, 10:54:26 AM
In  our country we don’t normally use debit  card, credit cards, the mode of payment is mostly cash because people have the fear that if they will use card it is not safe. Also, not all fast food  chains, or stores here that accepts card, they’re only few establishment who accepts card that’s why I can say that we need cash for everyday use. It actually depends on where you are like if your in the US, they don’t normally use cash, they use credit or debit cards instead.
1878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble or think it's a waste of money and time? on: May 16, 2019, 08:27:36 AM
For me, I still choose to gamble because it is fun and entertaining and aside from that I can get few profits as well while having fun. I don’t consider it as a waste of time but some people may look at it that ways it actually depends.
1879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: May 16, 2019, 05:31:27 AM
With addiction as a side effect of gambling, I do wish to know what exactly the success rate of your gambling is. How many times have you not found yourself facing simply losses and that you still pin hope on success?

Gambling allows you to think that you will win every time in spite of the losses that you incur. You feel that success is just missed by a margin as thin as a hair. Every time you lose, you do feel that success was almost there and you could have had it almost certainly. And since it was almost a success story just missed by a very thin margin, you do not mind going in for another try only to miss again by a thinner margin! One success and you are happy. But does it stop? No. You feel that your efforts have now borne fruit and here onward you will surely win every time you take a shot in that game. But what happens? You lose again by a margin thinner than the previous time.

In this way we are lured every time for that success almost at hand, which we saw but could not get hold of. And we try time and again because it is so near. The truth is that you will find you end up losing everything in the hope of laying your hands on that success. Only the extremely self-controlled man will stop himself from further gambling the moment he tastes success.

True, many times one success can compensate for all the losses incurred. But what we miss is that that success itself is extremely rare. It is not a bad thing to have hope. But hope serves when we work hard towards success not otherwise.
This problem is happen because that the gambler to focus on making money and forget about the important thing.

And its Enjoying your self playing and have fun, with this can help you control your self.

This is where greed is taking the gambler instead of having control. People being people who is more drawn to money and forget all other important things such as what was mentioned above which is having fun while gambling. It is better if you just have fun while gambling in any way it will help you from having stress when you loss.

Lottery and Math? I'm quite sure no lotteries is using mathematical formula to draw the winning number.

There are no formulas to win on a gambling or even on a lottery but literally speaking there are numbers that are being used here  so yes it is based on math  .  ive search some ways to increase my chance of winning a lottery  and the best answer that ive read so far  is buying more tickets or join a group of people that is buying more tickets   .  that is too costy and that wont ensure that you will won  because the odds of winning a lottery is only 1 out of million/billion chance .

I agree, but some believes that it has something to do with mathematical formulas, I even had an experience one time, wherein my friend told me that someone showed him a somewhat like table that was used to determine the lottery winning number. I actually told him it absurd and it will just eat their brains in cracking the winning number. Gambling is pure luck nothing else.
