1221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: August 27, 2016, 12:00:29 PM
Those who are rich from gambling are extremely lucky people. I am not one of them and hence I stay away from gambling. It requires a decent amount of luck and most of us are unlucky but people just want easy money and are lazy to work hard. So they end up burning their bankroll at casinos becoming beggars mostly while one or two in a million people become millionaires.

Most of us are not unlucky, we are much lucky but the only thing which is required is the hard work in the field where we are expert , every person is created for its specific field or we can say that every person is specialized in a specific field during their life cycle, so they require to stay at there, you will see some people expert in some field and will earn much faster at there but it will not mean that you will also earn faster at there, but you will earn in that field at where you are expert and about which you have good skills.

It is not just gambling but everything of which someone is addicted, is not easy to give up. You are the person who can help you at first, you need to make yourself assure that what were you doing till now was wrong and is bad in all perspectives then seek external help. It needs strong will and clear vision driven by inner will and you can get rid of gambling addiction over the time.
thats true, but gambling used to be my only addiction to be honest and it was really hard to quit it

Any addiction is hard to quit, but once you have realized it that you have a problem you should look for professional help, the help of your family and keep a very clear focus of your goal, to quit gambling.

Whenever a person realize that he is addicted and he has a problem from there, he then be able to give away from there, it is true that he find it hard to give up from there but he try his best to stay away from what he feels the problem, but those who are unable to understand that he has a problem from a place/addiction are unable to give up from there and stay the whole life at there.
1223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: August 27, 2016, 10:54:24 AM
According to my views gambling is much more addictive because of fun at there and the hope to get some money from there, so when these both things combine together then the player do not want to stay away from there and want to get what they are expecting from there and in this way become addictive to there.

Yeah, in those place from where we have the expectation of earning money and that place will be full of entertainment then t will really attract people towards itself , and the players will be there, for longer time until they find any other source of entertainment and any other source of income, but sometimes it becomes hard for people to get away from there.
1224  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: August 27, 2016, 10:33:02 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?
one thing makes you coming back at gambling you need more bitcoin or greedyness

Not that I'm greedy but its the adrenaline perhaps. Betting on MMA or betting on binary option can always help someone who is dying inside feel the sense of being alive if you know what i mean  Grin Watching a boxing or MMA fight is not so exciting without bets thats how it feels and i guess a gambler would be regretful if his bet won and him not betting.
That is definitely true, gambling without bets is boring and always winning has no challenge at all. What makes us coming back is because we experience different outcome of the game, winning and losing experience gives us the mixed emotion of the game and we all want to that as it is a challenge for us.

But those people who always win spend all of their life with gambling and they remain happy with gambling as with that they get a permanent and steady income for their living so they do not need to search for any other source of income, and do not need to search for any job or go for any other place of entertainment.
1225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: August 27, 2016, 10:21:47 AM
Maybe? I think there are many difference between gambling & trading for example, Trading needs to be patience while the gambling
you need more luck. Otherwise if you don't have patience highly recommended not to trade!

Exactly, i also realize not similarities between each others, but one thing patience we need it in both ways. Actually when i play gambling than i feel so much excitement and also worried, but i am not play gambling for earn money, and also in trading seriously it is time taking work, so both gambling and trading need patience. 

In terms of patience we can consider both of them the same things, but actually these both are totally different things, these both have different aims for the public, in gambling we get entertainment while in trade we get the profit, in gambling we defeat each other while in trading we provide help(service for providing assets or exchange) to each other, so in these terms and some other aspects gambling and trading are two different things.
1226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 26, 2016, 08:17:40 PM
It depends on you, if you like earn money or spend money. If you like to spend then probably that would be gambling as the more you spend the more you will get the best entertainment but if you like to make money investment is always the answer.
Exactly. I personally prefer it to be both, although with different allocations. Around 70% on investments and 30% gambling. That way, the chances are varying and it may possibly be a higher chance to gain profit.

though investing is a way better method of earning money if you dont actually invest into ponzi schemes
Yeah, investing in ponzi schemes are always risky the owner of that ponzi site will definitely run away whenever he feel that he is going to lose anymore or if he feel that he has now earned that amount which he wanted to earn.

I myself do not want to invest in any scheme, I always prefer to start trade or any personal business as in there you will be your own boss and will not have the risk to lose.
1227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What stuff you buy when you win gambling? on: August 26, 2016, 08:07:12 PM
There is not much ocassion of high win for me and even if there was one i lost all those winning on next few tries out of my greediness. But one time i was able to catch around 0.10 btc from which i bought good internet connection exchanging it to my local cash. However i don't think i would be able to win that big again and also i don't prefer to gamble to earn.
the same for me, i usually suffer only losses if i do gambling though if i manage to win something i usually go with steam games

We should not have to consider gambling as a place to earn money but we have to consider gambling only a place for playing games for fun, and the money which we invest there will be the money spend for our entertainment, we do not have to think that the money which we spend there will earn bigger amount for us, but we have to focus on games for fun.

I don't use PayPal anymore since I began to use Bitcoin. It is now almost a year and some months when I completely said bye bye to PayPal. I was also facing problems as there were too many unnecessary regulations. Bitcoin is just better by all aspects without comparison at all. It is injustice even to think PayPal is even near to whatever Bitcoin offers.

That is right. Paypal can hold your account to freeze or under limitation if they found some irregular transactions you have - in bitcoin wallet, there is non - zero questioning at all.

That is the best thing with bitcoins. But I still have m paypal account though to receive some money from my clients and buying online stuff that not accepting bitcoin yet at the moment.
Even though I know that, I still use paypal simply because most of the online stores that I often go to accept paypal. And I never haven't experienced any problems with my paypal account since I never really fund them any more than $500 and I would always withdraw them whenever I'm done with whatever I'm trying to purchase.

I was also using paypal for my use, but after adopting bitcoin now it is not hard for me to buy anything online with bitcoin, you only need to know about those stores where you can shop with bitcoin and then you will not find any issue in there while shopping with bitcoin.
1230  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: August 17, 2016, 08:00:46 AM
in present time i have only one plan that i am going to hold my bitcoin for the price increase and nothing else.

I think it will give you some good profit but it is not considered as the permanent method to become rich as we do not see always rise in bitcoin price the better choice is that you start your own business with the profit you get from any source which will give you permanent and steady payment on daily or monthly or annual base.
1231  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2016, The Year of Bitcoin? on: August 04, 2016, 08:05:24 PM
I think the price will drop more. After a few days we will see some price recovery.

You were right the price after a smaller crash going to recover and trying its best to reach to its older value of $650 once again, I hope that in the coming few days the price will reach to more than $650 and then will try to increase to $700 and more.
1232  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to motivate women to use Bitcoin? on: August 04, 2016, 07:59:17 PM
i think each woman love bitcoin if he know the value of bitcoin, the main problem is bitcoin can't accept everywhere, only few merchands accept bitcoin.

But for online shopping it is easily acceptable, and i think female will need money or bitcoin only for shopping, so tell them the way to online shopping where bitcoin is acceptable and so they will readily adopt bitcoin and will try their best to get more and more bitcoin with any way they find.
1233  Other / Archival / Re: Do you use bitcoin as currency or investment? on: August 04, 2016, 07:55:14 PM
i am using bitcoin for investment only because we have no such facilities to use it in our local markets,

You are right it do not have much facilities in local market in any part of the world, bt you can use it as currency for online shopping , I hope the shipping will be provided to your country if it is not from your country.
1234  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you still believe in bitcoin on: August 04, 2016, 07:52:39 PM
Bitcoin is the best. There is no way that i am going to stop believing in it. I will continue with the crypto currency for a long time and hopefully it will pay off and hopefully the bitcoin prices won't crash but will increase.
The value of bitcoin is slipping right now, and will be continuously doing so until maybe the a little less than the $500 line.
However, that doesn't mean the end of bitcoin. In fact, it's an opportunity for new comers to join in the race and for most traders to get quite a lot of profits.

I agree, bitcoin falling price doesnt mean it is the end of the world for bitcoin but it actually have a positive effect because as you said, it opens its door to new investors a.k.a new comer  that will give more stability for bitcoin.  Investors are happy when one commodity is falling in price because for them it's a gold to catch. 

I think it is only a good chance for those people who do not want to risk much of their money and want to invest little amount, as the investors do not afraid from any high amount and they take any risk , the price rise is actually a harmful thing for those who have a bigger amount of bitcoins in their wallets and who have bought at higher price.
1235  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is your money aim? At which point you would go in "retire"? on: August 04, 2016, 07:49:58 PM
My aim is to start my own industry of any product and when I get that aim I will slower down my work and will then get the profit from there and after that I will spend a peaceful and full of luxurious life with my family and with my best friends.
1236  Other / Off-topic / Re: Have you ever lost Bitcoin? on: August 04, 2016, 07:42:16 PM
to some scam coins on exchange sites and some dice games on some exchange sites.

I am seeing a lot of scam coins and a lot of people are losing their money while investing on scam coins, I think people should not have to husry to invest in any newly formed coin, they should have to invest only in those coins which are considered as more reliable and more legit.
1237  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The future of Bitcoin on: August 04, 2016, 07:39:36 PM
I think that the future of Bitcoin is bright because Bitcoin has allot of potential and becomes more popular by day because of that.
With Bitcoin you will never know what is going to happen so I might be wrong.

I'm not too worried about the future of bitcoin, if the user continues to grow of course the future of bitcoin will be nice and seemed adoption went well for now
im not worried about the future of the bitcoin too, in my opinion its price is going to grow a lot and it will be safe for centuries and make us all good money

Yeah and bitcoin will be much stronger as an currency in future and I am sure it will replace all payment systems and people will prefer to use only bitcoin for their transactions.

It has already replaced more than 50% payment system online, as now more people like to pay with bitcoin and they now love the transactionsystem of bitcoin, with this transaction/payment system they are feeling more freedom and they now do not have any fear of losing their money i other hands.
1238  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in the banks?! on: August 04, 2016, 07:36:50 PM
In the start I was of the view that banks are better for bitcoin for its more security but now I think that if the local banks started to control bitcoin then there will be a lot of scammers in there who will scam innocent people (i am saying it because recently I heard about a bank scam)
1239  Other / Off-topic / Re: How would you guys react if you guys lost 10, 000 bitcoin? on: August 04, 2016, 07:34:10 PM
10,000 Bitcoins man.If i have that much then i will go mad and loosing them then i cant describe what my situation will be . May be i will go in big depression..will cry,dont want to live may be do something bad with me.

Yeah, that will be really a situation like you described, I pray to God that no one face a situation like that who earn their money with their hard work and if they get that amount with any legal method/way. It is really a heart breaking situation.
1240  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: August 04, 2016, 07:28:40 PM
there is no dought that bitcoin is better than old bank systems , we finally had  a money system which is  ours and yes bitcoincan make  banks disapper but we still need faint currency in existence or our government or banks will be extent and it can cause a un balance budget in our country which can effect us

Due to a lot of issues with banks in our country , bitcoin is really a very better system of financing for me, I don't face any issue with bitcoin and I am feeling relaxed and easy with this system of payment and currency.
