I think it's possible to make that money in gambling but i can't say you will be successful every single day you gamble.
In other words, your might lose what you have earned plus your investment money.


The chance to profit in gambling is to small, and it gets smaller in the long run. Profit in gambling is not sure, even if you have lots of funds to sustain losses in the long run, all of it might be gone in one bet.

All I can say is, gambling is only for short time earning, earn few then leave the site and try again another type of gambling but don't seat on it for a long time and settle on just that.

Nothing really wrong with gambling, just be realistic about what you can accomplish with gambling since many think they can become winners in the long run and we know that while some may get lucky the odds are you are going to become a loser.

That is because that is how gambling was introduced to them and that is how they really believe what gambling is. Gambling turns wrong depending on how we start it. Usually people who gamble in search for money is the way the gambling looks wrong. It depends also to the outcome of your habit, if it is negative and affects you negatively then gambling is wrong for you.
643  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: March 20, 2017, 01:54:08 AM
You can not quit gambling for good until you make yourself convince that this has really damaged you and your financial or personal condition which is obvious. Whether it is online or land gambling the process of quitting it neither simple nor easy. You need some kind of metal therapy and strong will for some period to get used out of doing gambling. This way your chances are high to succeed.

To make the chance of success in quitting high, the effective way that I know is by having something to do that could substitute what you get from gambling. With that said, the only thing I know is having a job that pays, or involve your self in arts and sell your products. The times that you are bored and the time that you do not earn is the key to becoming a gambling addict if we feed it and entertain gambling.
644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Planned or impulsive gambling? on: March 20, 2017, 01:31:42 AM
I gamble only in times that I want and I am not busy. It is not in my priority to do it all the time, people doing that are obsess and needs to assess themselves if they are addicted or not.

Usually at night, that's the time I only gamble before, after work, but this days, no, I can't do it anymore since my job duty time is not favorable.
645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If today was your last day, would you gamble everything? on: March 20, 2017, 12:42:25 AM
It's a shame that you have bad enough taste to listen to Nickelback, but moving on.

It wouldn't make any sense to gamble everything, because even the most addicted gamblers tend to gamble based on the thought that there is a chance of them gaining lots of money in the future.  If it's your last day and you're going to die, why spend your time thinking about your future when you have no future?

Not all the time. I see someone, who are nearing his death, he knows that he can't make it anymore, so he hand his roosters to his son and give him money and bet all that he has ( he has almost none, jobless and bed ridden ). With that, I can tell that even a gambler is dying he still has guts to to do what he loves, probably we can call it "passion".
646  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: March 16, 2017, 01:43:17 AM
You know drugs is always in every country we can't deny that truth,I do like also his principles because its better to be like that than to have a country where more crimes are happening and the criminals , they have a person to be scared off.I don't see its very easy to lived peacefully in a country full of murders it will also affect the economy but that was all my opinion

Well its good that some of them got scared, but there are times that this just gives those drug lords an idea to hide more and keep their transactions away from the eyes of the government.

Aside from that, this killings has an effect too to the people, what if one day those authorities enter your house accusing you that you have drugs hidden there even if you don't have. Some of this authorities are also abusing their power because of this.

Lets just hope that they do their task without too much killing or as much as possible not as harsh as before.
647  Other / Politics & Society / Re: UN drugs board slams killings in Philippines on: March 15, 2017, 09:22:44 AM
That is a fucked up situation to claim 6500 lives when you are curbing drug problem is a really big number and why does the international community does not speak against that.It is against human rights to kill somebody in the name of drugs until and until he is a problem to the society he must be locked inside rather than giving the capital punishment.

At least that is less than 6500 addicts and pushers in the street that will likely do crime, or kill someone who is innocent. A lot of crimes in Philippines is because of people who are under the influence of drugs. They will mug you in the dark alley, and if you fight them, you are automatically dead. They don't select victims, whether you are young or old, the victims have human rights too, but they are already dead so where is the victims human rights there?

Are you sure that all these 6,500 people were actually drug addicts? There were media reports that at least some of them were innocent bystanders. Also, what was the need to kill them all? I thought that putting them in de-addiction centers would be a much better option.

Not all of them are addicts, some of them are just bystanders, there are even children who were hit by stray bullets from police. It is avoidable if they are carefully planning all their raids and not just after the merit that they will receive after accomplishing their task.

I just hope that this next one is not as bloody as before. Just like how the PDEA do it.
648  Other / Off-topic / Re: How are you earning BTC? on: March 15, 2017, 07:15:26 AM
By faucets and PTC sites..
I don't know why many people don't use them

Because it is the last in the list of priorities in earning bitcoin, it is time consuming and you can do many more aside from visiting a faucet. To make it short, people go for those who will pay high first in the shorter period of time so after that we can still earn in other micro jobs that we have.

I my self is collecting in faucets before, but due to its nature that it consumes too much time and I have other things to work on, it is the last in my to do list.
649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: March 15, 2017, 07:04:21 AM
I was like you, I played and I lost, I also invested a lot of money into it, I understand your feelings. We are always greedy and want to make a lot of money from it, and we lose, we feel angry and want to get things back. However, we were wrong. We have emotionally driven and we lose more. So, if you play gambling, you should consider it as an entertaining game, do not put too much hope into it, otherwise you will lose it all.

Luckily, that after few weeks of being in the gambling site, I overcome that kind of feeling. It's really hard to accept defeats when we are not expecting it to happen in the middle and when we are expecting that we are going to win.

Actually its hard to resist when that happens, and we will have hard time resisting our self to deposit when we can't accept that we lose.
650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: March 15, 2017, 06:34:41 AM
It gives me money because of my favorite game satoshimines.  It helps to improve my life.  It gives me hangout with my friends by going to somewhere else just like beach,  hotel,  and other special places in the whole world.  And specially financial freedom.

Wow. Looks like gambling is already in your blood.

You are one of a kind. In my experience as gambler, I only win cents from cents. That means you have a very big capital or you are too lucky that you start from the scratch and made it to the top. I hope you could share your strategy, so we all win and experience what you experience now.
651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used by ordinary citizens? on: March 15, 2017, 06:10:45 AM
Bitcoin is for everyone, with or without knowledge about technology. Learning basics is easy I think, and just with a bit of effort anyone can use and have benefit from bitcoins.
Soon everyone will need to choose crypto or fiat, and if we wish to see some revolution in this world people should give full support for that, with any knowledge they possess. If someone doesn't know about bitcoin, teach them, show them, only like that we can spread the word.

It can be used by everyone. As mentioned many times, it can be studied and learn when it is needed. So even ordinary people in different walk of lives can use it when they learn how to use this thing.

However, practically thinking, the fee is what could disappoint people from using bitcoin in their ordinary market days and buying in retail stores.
652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: March 15, 2017, 05:54:33 AM
Gambling will be profitable activity if we invest in gambling site, make website gambling by our selves
I am sure it will not be easy due to build gambling business needs large capital, time, nice promotion,
up to many costumers who use our service.

That option is only applicable to those who has capital or to those who has a group who can manage to build a gambling site and sharing the ROI of it. In short, its expensive and needs a lot of effort to begin.

Investing in gambling sites house is good, however your income will never be the same and will always be smaller than what the owner can get.

653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we still gambling while we always lose? on: March 15, 2017, 05:44:44 AM
There is one reason for this.  The fallacy of eventually winning the game.  People have this belief that if ever they keep on losing, one day they will win which is actually not true.  Losing will not guarantee you to win next time.  Remember the chance keeps on rebooting or refreshing every time you make a bet.  So accumulated lost will not guarantee you to win next time.

No doubt. That's what I think too when I am betting. I usually came back immediately even after losing few times in a row, I am always thinking that the next one will be the lucky one. But most of the time it is not ending the way I think it should be.

Sometimes gamblers thinks that they already found the solution on their losing, that is why they came back. Well, that's a different story though.
654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: March 14, 2017, 11:26:45 AM
In my mind, gambling is completely addictive because even though we lose in gambling we felt comfortable playing again. For me, gambling is one type activity which we can refresh our mind and lose all the tension while playing, though losing I won't bother much about it.

That is addictive, that's true, but OP wants to know if how we look at gambling, is it a game? or an investment?

For me it is an investment. I am there to earn and not just to have fun. If its just a game, then no one will be there to play. Everyone is there to win and not just to waste time. If gambling is a game and no money is at stake, for sure, only few will be there to play.
655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: March 14, 2017, 07:25:24 AM
In my own opinion gambling is not wrong its a gambling site or casino only who offers gambling games for us to have profit and fun .Both is given we just need to know what would be our needs before playing.

Gambling isn't wrong sometimes, and it depends on the gambler, the "abuse" is what makes it wrong. Whether you are a newbie or a pro gambler, too much of it will still be wrong. Also, those gambling sites, they might be wrong in some way, like the way they advertise their gambling sites, it's like deceiving those newbies.
656  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever lost BTC from getting infected? on: March 14, 2017, 05:05:35 AM
I never encounter such thing, I have an anti virus in my laptop and I don't download files in where I am storing my bitcoin, in short I never put any thing in it, specially internet, that is the safest thing that I know that could protect my wallet from malware.

If I see my computer that has internet acts a little weird, or it feels like it is slowing down, then I reinstall the OS. All is clean again.
657  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: March 14, 2017, 02:01:15 AM
I am saving my bitcoin because of its value, I am not into thing that has no purpose or just for fun. I am planning to use it in the future, buy something that is useful or use it in business when I have a chance. Bitcoin is not a child thing, or some kind of a toy/token that you can use just to play, coz if it is, for sure, no mature people will be here and invest in it and earn.
658  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Where would you invest if you had 40$/day ? on: March 14, 2017, 01:06:17 AM
Save $30, invest $10 in sports gambling. With the right knowledge and research, you can increase that $10 to $300 in a month... ofcourse there's always a probability that you lose all the $10.

If I have to invest my money, I'll make sure that I am investing in a business that will give me a ROI. investing in gambling is risky, there is nothing sure in it. $40 a day is big enough and if it is from OP's job, I think OP should just save it or engage in business by himself and not to invest it to any one who offers him something. It is safer that way, only that it will require attention.
659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If money would not be a problem, would you still gamble? on: March 13, 2017, 11:26:45 AM
Yes, i will still gamble.Because i will play for my pleasure and for entertainment. Since there have no problem about money so i think gamble is perfect for fun and also for refreshment.Because i like gambling and it is exiting.

While we are still hoping for it, all of the gamblers thinks like that, if their purpose of life is to gamble so that they could satisfy their desire. But if their purpose of being a gambler is to earn and have a good future, for sure, when they reach that point, they will be thinking about fixing their lives.

But who knows, decisions changes when we are already there.
660  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who is stronger the government or the president? on: March 13, 2017, 07:02:58 AM
Now i have to tell you the reality of the politics. Either president or government bodies may be much weaker than private groups. Your president might be a puppet nor your government

It depends, not all the time the president is greater than the government and vice versa.

Sometimes the governments power is divided into three, no one should be greater than each other.

There are type of government where the President is on power on the whole government and there are also type where the President is just a representative and not the sole ruler.
