1181  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: September 11, 2016, 01:33:46 AM
Probably because why wouldnt you want free money?

Your brain doesnt care if you could loose it  Shocked

But they are actually not free, each bet "costs" a percentage called house edge. Gamblers who are addicted because they want to win "free money" just don't understand the simple math behind gambling, so they gamble more than they can afford to lose, eventually lose, get frustrated. depressed, etc.

You are right, we cannot say that the money which comes from gambling is free money but for that the gambler spend a lot of his capital, and then even in that situation when he win a bigger lottery, he is unable to recover his money as he had lost a lot in his previous bets.
No easy money in gambling, it might look easy but you are in gambling you will prove that it is hard to win that is why majority loses in the long run and that makes them addicted because they cannot accept their defeat and will always come back to win more.
1182  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: September 11, 2016, 01:17:53 AM
being happy in gambling will only depend on what kind of a person you are, are you wise or a fool? I personally benefited from gambling once and by that money I opened my business which sustains me to date. I cannot go back to gambling because I know luck comes only ones and I got it. So to me, it fixed my life because I was lucky and used my God given wisdom


Then i can say that you are a wise person then really don't look gambling as your primary source. You are lucky because you win and then you become wise because you used it to grow and not to gamble this one again and might just lose it.

Yeah, he is really a wise person, he got a chance to get a bigger amount from a casino and then he did not prefer to play with them and invest them in a solid business and is getting the profit till now, it is a good lesson for all of those who want to become rich with gambling or in any other field, they should have to grab the opportunity only and have to go forward.
Well, I guess it is something that is very good, and I think it is the best way to change your life for the better with gambling, but in fact very difficult to do that, because if you've won bitcoin in a casino, it will be very difficult to stop it until you're really bored, or you really have run out of bitcoin, but perhaps it can be tried

I had an idea to overcome the way you play first before playing you have to make targets wins $ 1000 or 10000 you will stop
trying to avoid  gambling and immediately make a real business. different feeling when you play without a target if win hunch would say try a bit longer, until you lose all
That's right, with a target in gambling we will be able to implement the game plan and we will know when to stop when you are losing or winning, for me that is very important to consider for every gambler for him not to be greedy and ruin his life because of gambling.

You can do a signature campaign which has probably already been mentioned. Another idea is try lending bitcoin to others on this forum for a profit. If you have a little to lend, that could make you a little money.
Yes. Crosany is right you can apply in some sigbature campaign find open one and try your luck to apply and if you get in then you can start to read the rules and follow that one so that everything will be fine dont lend some bitcoin if you're not sure how to pay it back because its too risky for ms
Signature campaign is just a start of your journey to earn bitcoin but you do not need to focus it because you can grow here and there are opportunities you can see to use your skills and passion to earn more income than doing signature campaign, you can invest your earning too if you want to grow.
1184  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: September 11, 2016, 01:05:09 AM
Try to have a nice job with high  salary, and owning some business  and with a little extra time on bitcoin , to have some extra  income .  With this you can increase your chances.

each salary is dpending about each skill your have. also the graduate is main point too.
i think become freelacer of bitcoin is the best way to earning money, we have more "free time" to manage it, and im sure we can open bussines after have capital to start it.
You are certainly correct that it depends on individual's skills on the success of his life, I believe most of the people who are successful online are only those who have skills in programming and coding, but in general most of us does not possess that skills so we better do business base on our passion.
1185  Economy / Economics / Re: How would you double $100,000 safely? on: September 11, 2016, 01:01:30 AM
I personally believe that nothing is truly very safe  to double your money in the short term. But, if you ask me, buy and hold bitcoin could be quite safe for the  next few months, in my opinion.
I hope you can see some increase for next month but I don't think you can double the amount easy in a short span on time, there is no such thing as investment here that would double your money easily unless you are in gambling like dice games, you can easily double that in less than an hour if you are lucky.
1186  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: September 11, 2016, 12:56:32 AM
Until now i have not discovered any good steady income , all of the things i do to earn bitcoin  contain the risk, such as trading,  gambling or hyip , the best way  i can think of is only through freelance job and  signature campaign, but its very difficult  to find a job because there are  a lot of people compete  to get the job.
Honestly its hard to have a steady income online its not stead y but it depends how you are work online.. if you are a multi tasker don't spec for steady income they are always looking for a task to do to make extra income daily..
Well there is always a spot open to captcha service, where you may get some satoshis, sure signature sptos are getting controled by the owners, otherwise they will be spending more then they  are earning, but in the end you always able to join some signature, atleast for a while. I do believe you need something outside this forum to get a steady income.
Having a stable day job is more important rather than getting your money here online unless you are earning big money doing some kind of investment and trading, just focus on finding a regular job then you can always make working here in the forum as your side job.
1187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: September 11, 2016, 12:52:20 AM
If I was rich I would still gamble without any doubts because gambling is just fun and if you have the money for it why not.
I think you can really enjoy yourself with gambling and if you rich it does not mind if you are losing some money.
With that mentality you are safe in gambling, being rich would give you a good opportunity to enjoy gambling more, for people who cannot raise a good amount of money in gambling as bankroll losing is their main fear but when you are rich you have accepted the reality that gambling is just an entertainment and to be entertain we need to spend.

I don't think what you are saying. because I'd looked at gambling is as a place to find pleasure and not seek riches, because gambling is not a good thing to look for wealth. gambling is very risky
You should have to read carefully as he is saying that gambling is a place of fun and if someone will be rich then for them it will be more pleasure as he will not have any fear that he will lose his money and will be able to afford any amount he want to deposit. while poor people often fear and are unable to get fully pleasure as they have to manage and calculate their budget first.
You are doing a great job for lecturing someone who cannot easily understand what a posted would try to emphasize, we should stay on topic here and you are right we should not just post for the sake of length but rather with substance and understand is one of the most important to achieve a healthy and productive discussion.
1188  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin worth to you or not... on: September 11, 2016, 12:45:24 AM
Bitcoin is the future. I can't even imagine my life without it today.
Wow, you must have benefited so much on bitcoin, right? Some people like you are making a living on bitcoin and that is some kind of a good news because bitcoin has give us benefits to increase our income and give us the opportunity to grow and reach our dreams in the world where we are in control of your destiny.
1189  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best Investments on: September 11, 2016, 12:40:47 AM
My investment is in Bitcoins.  It's probably one of the best investments I have done so far,  even though I am not  enjoying my profits  at the moment. I'm still holding my bitcoins  for now.
Always a good decision, holding in the best strategy for investment here because we know the price will rise in the long run. Understanding that bitcoin has a big potential to succeed more will give us the comfortable feeling and assurance that we will profit from our investment in the future.
1190  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: September 11, 2016, 12:31:11 AM
Money should always work for themselves. Therefore, the best way is to invest half and half left in the bank for deposit. Of course it should still be the amount that would be possessed at a particular time.
Very well said someone says that if you cant let your work your money while you asleep then you cant earn money when you awake and this is my favorite quote in my entire life because ot inspired me alot when in comea to bitcoins its more better if i will invest my money on some selected and wroth to trust websites.
Just be patient, we will reach into the level that we will be able to money while we are just sleeping or we are letting our money work for us, right now we need to craft that dream and work hard to get into that position.
1191  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: September 10, 2016, 03:12:23 AM
I can't do this, my day job is very important to me, if you would leave it, i am sure that i will not get success , better to have bitcoin like a side income.

Majority of users believe in the same as they don't want to risk their standard of living so they will prefer to go full time with regular job and treat bitcoin as an additional income.
And I can say that majority of people who go full time in bitcoin are more successful now as they have earn money more than the money they are earning in regular job, the amount we earn in day job is just a fix amount not enough to enjoy as it is just some kind of amount enough for our needs only.
1192  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: September 10, 2016, 03:05:49 AM
If I was desperate for money I think that I would try to lend some money from the bank because I do not know what else to think of.
I know that lending money costs you more money in the end but sometimes you do not have a choice.

Exactly, it depends on the situation actually if how much time do you have for getting that money, if you have enough time then you might be able to earn some but if you need them too early and the time you have is not enough for earning then you will have no choice then asking for a loan.

and for te needy people it is much harder to get a loan especially in the condition when he will not have any collateral for to keep with, as everyone have faced a situation of loan default so they now do not trust.

This is  happening on almost people  when they intend  to request loan but the  hard part is  they dont have any strong collateral since they are only just  poor and nothing could be guarantee that why some people  dont have choice but  do illegal things. For me  if  im included on those poor people i would  rather a stable job rather  than  doing illegal things because  you are really need  in money.
If you look in the right places it is entirely possible for most people to get money from loans, and even from reputable places like a normal bank. All you need to do is look for a smaller amount that doesn't need collateral, and as long as you have a way to prove income most banks won't write you off completely from getting a loan. They won't give you huge amounts, but a lot of them will definitely consider smaller $1-2k loans, and if they can pay that, then it is highly like they will look at you for bigger loans.

Banks also like to get lower incomes into slave debt, which basically nets them interest money for most of the indebtee's life, so keep that in mind and always be watchful of that.
You are right with your statement, we should only take a loan if we are in desperate need of money unlike other people who take a loan as they want to buy their wants, that is the real problem will start when you will focus on your wants rather on your needs and in times of trouble you cannot avail on banks anymore as you are already fully indebted with a bigger balance still.
1193  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to collect BTC ?? on: September 10, 2016, 02:54:51 AM
I was very trouble to collect BTC,
I want to ask

means anything that can be used to collect BTC? Then the means which are getting more BTC?
There Are Many Methods Available To Collect Btc But According To Me The Easiest Method to Collect Btc is That You Can Join A Signature Campign And Start Posting In This Forum Or You Can Offer Your Services In The Services Section Of This Forum.....

You have to be able to post good quality posts now to join the signature campaign. For most people, it is not ideal.
Yes, and that is easy for you if you are always in this forum and reading news about bitcoin, if you are an active member it would be easy for you to participate in the discussion here and with that action you can already earn a certain amount as your income from signature campaign once you are working.
1194  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing Bitcoins? on: September 10, 2016, 02:48:01 AM
Investing in Bitcoin is a good  thing to do if you want to make some extra  money, but the only negative  thing is that you sometimes have to  wait long before you make some money.

It is not that long. Actually other currency or commodities have a longer waiting time before it change its price. Bitcoin is a lot fastee when it comes to fluctuating price.
Definitely, bitcoin is good if you are a day trader because almost everyday we can see some price fluctuations and with a bigger capital we can make a decent income even in a daily basis and that is the advantage of bitcoin than other assets online for trading.
1195  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin to be international currency on: September 10, 2016, 02:46:01 AM
Bitcoin is already an international currency. Wherever you are, you can always use your Bitcoin to transact with someone online. When visiting other countries and you want to get a local currency, you can look up online what online wallet supports a withdrawal in that currency. For example, in my country which is the Philippines, we have coins.ph which allows you to withdraw your Bitcoins into peso. I bet there are other countries that has website like ours.
Have to appreciate the local exchange for giving us the opportunity to easily cash out our bitcoins, despite of that I do not see more merchants in our country that accepts bitcoin and though it is easy to cash out it is good to see some businesses that are accepting bitcoins in our country to promote bitcoin and to give awareness to the people.
1196  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans too risky? on: September 10, 2016, 02:39:36 AM
The key to avoid defaults and thus losses, is to accept loan requests only by providing a collateral from the loanee which is at least valued equally.
To give out loans without such securities is very risky. You will not be profitable at all.

Loans can be risky to give out if you dont research who you are giving it to because alot of people cant afford to loan and they still do it so the result of that is that they wont be able to pay back the loan let alone the interest.
The right practice of lending money online is to get a collateral from the borrower but should not be equal to the loan amount, it is always that the value of collateral should be more than the amount of loan to ensure that a certain borrower will pursue paying his loan once the due will come.
1197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling crying thread on: September 10, 2016, 02:32:19 AM
So, you should thought about whether you are already addicted or not. If your goal is to make profit and if you lose all the time, then you should really think about what you make wrong. Probably it is a better option for you to look for alternative and more secure ways to increase the amount of your Bitcoins.

Losing 0.004 BTC it was made me sad for couple time, but it is not make me cry because i have be ready for lost 0.004BTC. And if i have bitcoin i will play gambling again although i always losing.  Grin
when i was new to bitcoin i felt the same to be honest though right now such losses seemto be really small only and i dont care about it
It's hard to know if we are addicted or not because what we love is only to gamble when you are addicted in gambling and you will not find it a disease once you are in the situation, we always look for gambling because that makes us happy and we only cry when we lose big amount but other than that we enjoy gambling because of the excitement we feel.

Will Derrick Rose be somewhat like prime rose this season? You know he felt some type of way when Chicago dissed him.

I think he's motivated to be on that superstar level like he was before. What you think guys?
This season we can see the reborn of derrick rose, he will try to impress the big crowd of knicks as he is in new york now. I believe in his capability and he is very entertaining to watch, let us hope fellas that he will remain healthy throughout the season to see some good action in the east.
1199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: September 10, 2016, 01:28:29 AM
Gambling is actually not wrong if you gamble  only for fun and do not spend to much or play to much. As we all know that all too much would always be not good.
Yup I agree. Because for me gambling is bad depend of a person who play this kind of activity. If you are out of control then you should not continue playing this but if you know how to handle everything I guess it's fine for you to play.

It's hard to handle it when you're losing. Very hard, because you want to get the money you just lost back.
That is true, but when you feel that you really don't have luck, it is better to stop or stay away in gambling immediately for you to not lose more money.
I hope that is the scenario all the time but most gamblers does not stop when they experience loses and they will only stop when they ran out of money. Really hard to control ourselves in gambling because of the mix emotion that we are going to experience.
1200  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: September 10, 2016, 01:21:57 AM
No there are no safe gambling methods and like almost everyone is saying there never will be any because gambling is based on luck you need luck to win some nice amounts.
A good strategy still will not help you with playing safe so its simple there is no way!
Yeah no safe method for gambling  its depend on the outcome of the game if you win you win and if you lose you lose that is the life of gamblers now always win.
The trend is we lose most of the time in gambling so there is no safe way unless you are in gambling to enjoy and it is fine with you if you lose your money that you can afford to lose but that is not the scenario most of the time, gamblers do wants entertainment and money at the same time.
