It is important. Almost in every where you apply for a job, they are looking for credentials, the higher your papers are, the better position and salary you can get.

There are also jobs that needs masters degree as a requirement, Just like when you want to be a part time instructor in college, they will look for your credentials and they often require AM/TM for you to teach, otherwise they won't hire you.

When you are about to open a business too, it's better that you have masters degree, it will make your reputation better as a businessman in faction that you are in.
302  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is holding bitcoin Greedy? on: November 27, 2017, 07:42:09 AM
Bitkoyn is not held by greedy people, but wise enough. It would not be wise to do yourself a loss. All human actions must have logic and a definite need. If a person invests in bitcoin, he calculates for a certain income and these actions are logical.

Yeah, most of the holders are wise,they are futuristic with their thought about bitcoin, they can't be consider as greedy.

You are greedy if you invest all your income into bitcoins then your daily lifestyle will not be balance because you also need to leave some of the penny to your wallet so you can still have a money to sustain your daily life when there is a huge down in the market.
It's not greediness, it's foolishness, we all know that bitcoin price go wild from time to time, now if you need your money and the price was down, then you will cut your loss, in the end, instead of earning from the time that you've kept your bitcoin, you are now with deficit. So it's not good to keep all your savings here.

I think there's nothing wrong with keeping your bitcoin for a long time, why would you sell it if you really don't have a purpose on why doing it. Just keep it.

It depends on the person. Sometimes you become wealthy when you reach your middle age, and that time you started to break apart from your friends little by little. Maybe that's the reason why you become lonely after you become rich.

Some are also not into socializing, so their lives are boring and makes them look older. It means they are serious in life. They tend to think critical each time and there is almost no room for mistake for them.

The more people are around you, the happier you are.
304  Other / Off-topic / Re: What's your way of spreading Bitcoin knowledge? on: November 27, 2017, 05:35:32 AM
i'll make them see the process of when i am using bitcoin and introduce it to them. and if they're finally interested, then i am happy to help them.

That's pretty much basic but the best way to introduce bitcoin to the people around you. It's more of showing your enthusiasm to them so they could see that bitcoin is something that they should know.

I did that just the other day. One of my friends ask me what bitcoin is, I simply download an electrum wallet in her desktop and then transfer a small amount to her wallet and she was amazed. She is now planning to invest in bitcoin and start to trade.
305  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I try to win back my loss? on: November 26, 2017, 09:58:03 AM
In gambling theory, trying to win back after loses is desperately used by the gambling addict, because if you are in good thinking you can choose to escape and back if the negativity of your body were lost. Sometimes we can't win because there's a lot of negative vibes to our body due to stressed in our life. So I think it's better if we lost it first before playing.

Otherwise, if you feel that your not lucky in the games, I suggest to stopped and back on the next day. Because if you continue playing there's a possibility of instead of earning income, more loses you will gain.

It's a different story when you are in the game. Sometimes you forgot everything because of excitement. You tend to skip your meals, your chores at home, and sometimes you start to ignore people in your phone because of gambling.

But you have a point there, if you are negative, you'll have a hard time winning and if you lose, it feels like everything is falling. That is why it is better to atleast have a break in between games when you feel that you are not lucky, go out.
306  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: November 26, 2017, 09:27:10 AM
Many people are against Bitcoin because they afraid to invest money on it because the rate of Bitcoin is not stable. And also many people don't want to understand about Bitcoin because it is a virtual currency and people don't have faith on it.

Is there a connection between volatility and the resistance/refusal of users to use bitcoin? I think there is none. I do believe that some of them are victim of scams in the internet already, some also keeps on listening to hearsay, when someone told them that bitcoin is a scam, and some really just don't have a knowledge about this thing, that is why they are against.

Those that don't have any knowledge about bitcoin should be educated by those who know, otherwise, they will always believe that bitcoin is something that they should avoid.
307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: November 26, 2017, 09:01:59 AM
There are different different reason for the people to stop the gambling. The most important reason of them is when the people realise it when he was lost every thing from us like family, freind and money from them. Then he realise that he do the worst thing in life. Gambling is a type of game in which both the possibilities are present but there are more chance to lose it. The people realise it when he was lose everything from us then he stop to do the gambling or anything else.

So what's your recommendation?

I've been gambling before too heavy, almost 12 hours a day during my break at school after I finish my degree. It feels so good but stressful. Lucky that I never invest real money into gambling sites, I only use those that I got from micro jobs and faucets in dice sites.

When it comes to stopping, I never do it before, but later on I started to stop when I feel that I am not comfortable anymore, like I am stressed out and feeling bad already, and most of all if my bankroll is empty.

No, where will it go?

Maybe you just feel it because someone refuse to help you and you can't accept that.
In my opinion, it is still there, only that everyone is now careful in helping or showing sympathy towards the others. Lots of people who are taking advantage if you are good, so if you are good, then you must pretend that you are not and you don't like your neighbor so no one would ask your help.

There are people who are good at asking help, and when you help them, everyday they would want that you are helping them, at the end of the day when you stop, look at them and how they react.
309  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: November 26, 2017, 08:19:34 AM
One can make this with bounties, but this is also bound to a lot of work, so maybe just working a normals dayjob and converting some of that money into BTC will be the best choice. I dont think that there are easy ways that give you a passive income of 0.1 BTC per week. But if you are creative there certainly are such opportunities.

It is not possible now, Maybe way back 2015- early 2016, it is possible. The price of bitcoin increase a lot, so the reward each time we you join a campaign will be lesser now. Bounties too, I don't trust them, and I don't want to be paid in new altcoin if I will do a task, it will just give me headache if I can't dispose it ( who knows if it is a shit coin).

If OP possess few bitcoins, well I would suggest to do  trading, it will give him good ROI specially now that the price is so volatile that it drives like crazy.
310  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: November 26, 2017, 07:55:10 AM
one of the negative effects of the technology is being lazy of a person because the time they spend on it .

Not really, and not all the time. Some people become more and more productive because of technology.

But OP wants to know the effect of those video games that he is playing. Probably he is playing those games like Dota. I see some teens who are playing this game and I saw them shouting at each other and even fight each other in real life just because of their game. Probably there is something with that game that makes them feel stress when the other ones strategy is not right. I do believe that those could really affect the attitude of a teen. Watching some videos too, some may copy their gestures.
311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: November 26, 2017, 07:01:52 AM
I do not gamble to much but it always seems that when I do, I take the loss big time.  For example, I have lost over 3 BTC in the BustaBit game online.  It is fun and I like to play but I always get greedy with it.  I have won about 2.2 BTC back, but I lost more than what I have won.  For some odd reason, I keep coming back over and over.  I do not know why I do it, why do you?


I think the reason that you always come back is that the thrill and you are hoping to win back those lost BTC that you bet which is impossible to do if you already bet it out in a gambling site. I do suggest for you to stop going back in that gambling website that's because every time you go and play in the end you will lose bit by bit with you BTC until you don't have any BTC in your wallet anymore because you lose it all in gambling, before that happened you should hold your self and realize that gambling will really do nothing good and it is just a waste of money.

It's simple, just "forget it" that way you won't be having regrets and keeps on coming back to the site with hopes that you could win and atleast gain back your deposit in your bankroll.

I'm afraid that it will end up busting most of your bitcoin if your attitude towards gambling is like that, Switch off your computer, pull the plug in your router and go out. That's all you need to do.
312  Other / Politics & Society / Re: president duterde of philippines on: November 26, 2017, 06:45:14 AM
President Duterte the only president of the Philippines who strongly fought against ISIS and other rebel in Marawi, Mindanao in spite and despite of what people say, he stood the ground to eliminate those rebel people for the sake of peace and order in Mindanao and the entire country. Declaring Martial law helps.

President Joseph Estrada did the same during his term, and is battling with the biggest faction which is the MILF. He even conquer one of the biggest camp. Too bad that he didn't finish his term because of plunder case filed against him and the people oust him to step down.

In my opinion, martial law should not be lifted there, besides, abu sayaf is still alive, the biff and other private armies, and other armed groups in there, lifting it might escalate the tension in the area. I really do hope that he declare martial law too in places where NPAs are present. I mean province wide only, not the whole Philippines.
313  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin improve the economy of a country? on: November 26, 2017, 06:25:11 AM

Snip

I think they accept bitcoin because they think that bitcoin can change the country's economy. It is not imppossible that bitcoin can change the economy of a country because it already change the lives of its users. The change will happen if the citizens of this country will adopt the nature of bitcoin. If there would be an increase of users in bitcoin, the expected change in country's economy would happen anytime.

And what does "adopt the nature of bitcoin" can do with the economy? what does it mean anyway? That's irrelevant, government doesn't need to adopt bitcoin just to benefit from it. Seeing your citizens being employed and being busy the whole day working to earn bitcoin or trading the whole day is enough to say that the country benefit from bitcoin. Everyone won't be a burden to the government and since they are earning, they can also pay their taxes now.
314  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Does ages really matter in relationships? on: November 26, 2017, 06:01:46 AM
Snip

I really dont think if the man is older than the female or vice versa, it only matters when people starts to criticize you and put negative thoughts on the relationship. In this situation where it really matters most and if the couple would stand this situation then it does not really matter at all.

Honestly, it's not like that, that's a sign of immaturity in maintaining relationship. No matter how old are you or your girlfriend or boyfriend, it doesn't matter, people around you should not matter too, unless your boyfriend or girlfriend has other family or is already a married woman, man.

Now, if you are both single, you should not be worrying about people criticizing your relationship and the odd.  In the first place they are not the one who is going to marry, so they should not care.
315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: November 26, 2017, 05:40:12 AM
What happens when bitcoin is banned and is considered illegal by the government and is not working?
If bitcoin is banned in a country, it affects a lot of people who are involved in the bitcoin market or experts in virtual currency.
It will not be good for the economy or the income of a nation that has a large number of people involved in bitcoin Wink Wink Wink

It's a bit exaggerated. If everyone acts like a fool then probably that's possible. But since we are all capable of coping up with the situation, what you are thinking might not be happening. Everyone could shift to other online job or trade on forex instead.

Not everyone is into earning in bitcoin, in short, it won't even be noticeable to the economy. Besides most bitcoin users are not taxing what they earn, so how will it affect the economy?
316  Economy / Economics / Re: Life with out money ? on: November 26, 2017, 05:20:38 AM
I can't imagine my life without money,  because these days your life without money will be miserable and because of money you can live your life happy, and life without money is hard.

Though I don't get it, I think it's hard to live an easy life when you don't have money. Some services that could make you comfortable needs money, just like the electricity. The electric company won't just give you free electricity.

Most of all, your food, this days, even if you plant plenty of edible plants in your backyard, it won't suffice, you need to buy some in the grocery, without money you can't do that.
317  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: November 25, 2017, 11:23:15 AM
I agree that bitcoin reduces unemployment, not even reduces unemployment but can be a second job for people who already have other income. My friend focuses a lot on bitcoin for money, this is proof that bitcoin is able to cope with unemployment that is hard to find work on real world...

Care to share what your friend is doing for a living with bitcoin? If it is signature campaign, well, he should stop relying on this, this is not for a lifetime for sure. Who knows one day this site stop this shit spamming that's happening right now in the forum.

As I've always said, it could only employ those who can afford to atleast have an internet connection and can pay their electricity. The rest(the poor who doesn't even have electricity) might not be, unless they found a way or someone teach them how.
318  Other / Off-topic / Re: punishment for rapists on: November 25, 2017, 10:48:35 AM
The world has just become very hostile and now no one will want to just help the victim, but will spread the photo on the Internet from the crime scene, but when they begin to rape, they will no longer be funny. The rapists need to be severely punished not just by imprisonment, but they need to cut off part of the body.

Well, that is stupid. Why would you record what you are doing? A criminal do it if there is a consent from the one they are raping. Some of those are not really a victim of rape, but rape with consent. In short they like it but in the end they don't like the deal so they would file a case or those perverts kill their victim or hurt them and then upload the videos.

Yeah you are right, their P* should be cut, but that has a Psychological effect on the suspect and might depress him and would just result to just killing himself to end his misery.

I think punishment for rapist is death penalty to reduce  people and the crime they commit

That's harsh, you can just jail them for a lifetime and let the other prisoners rape them too.
319  Economy / Gambling / Re: Investing in btc casinos on: November 25, 2017, 10:22:58 AM
Just be very careful when it comes to investing sir some of the sites were scam.. I would rather suggest that you'd take ur investment in coins trading that is legit and patronized by other people.. Thank you.


Choose well reputed casinos, those that are already here longer. Also, don't expect too much, a fake/scam gambling site(if there is any, I don't see one yet) would be offering bigger ROI compared to those regular casinos.

In my opinion it is worth it to invest at those casinos, it is like you are still gambling but with lesser to no effort and just waiting.
320  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Well educated nation is the key? on: November 25, 2017, 09:53:03 AM
Difficult to tell. There are instances where those who are highly educated people leading the country are the worst, corrupt or a dictator.

When it comes to educated citizens, well it is true, it is the key to to solve economic crisis. Those who are educated find a job and they do not rely on their government for its assistance each time there is a calamity or some of their relatives needs medical attention. When everyone is educated they can find a job easily, that way the government can save a lot with their expenses since no one will be needing too much assistance. There are governments who release the same amount of budget to the department when their need is not that much, that would mean savings and can be re used or can be use as a bonus to their employees.
