Sleep and food.

As OP have said about having great amount of sleep, this is one of my stress reliever. In a very stressful times today, it's different level unlike before when things seems to be chill.

That's why getting good amount of sleep is a must and as well as some comfort food is also helpful just to satisfy your tummy and also give some cool to your head.

So, it's basically food and cold drinks for me.

Trading pushes you to lose a lot than to be profitable. But this is how trading is made, learning from your losses so you will be a reputable trader one of these days.
If someone trades and he's just losing than being profitable, there goes what you need to realize and that is to stop trading.

You should just chosen the path of holding than trading because that is common that we lose more in trading but in holding, you just have to bear what's with the market and hold while buying more.

That's an easy strategy that many don't seem to realize.

Management and being humble is what they should be taught. Well, I don't want to speak about it because I know it's hard to teach kids and hopefully I'll be able to apply that to my kid.

That's because I've seen great, humble and hard working parents but then, their kids are not. It's easy to tip on what must be done but when someone goes into the actuality, everything changes.
I personally feel that until now, when the child's attitude depends on the attitude of the parents, although not all of them are like that, but in the end, parents are always a reflection of the child's behavior.
I realize this because I already have children and some of my bad traits are not much different from the attitudes that my children show including in economic matters.
It is necessary to realize that children will always imitate the behavior of their parents so that when we as parents who do have some bad traits including perhaps in this case wasteful then it is certain that children will also see the way what parents do.

I was quite wasteful and sometimes overzealous when making several online and offline purchases before and it has been imitated by my child's attitude so that indeed in this case I began to realize the mistakes I made because in the end the behavior we show to children will actually be imitated.
That is so true and it's shaming when your child don't act the way you want them to be because they're reflecting your attitude towards them.

And that's the reason why there are parents that does everything to make their children proud of them and to behave. But sometimes, they are doing it too much to the point that kids have been spoiled a lot.

When they're spoiled, they act mindlessly. Yes, they're still kids but they need to be taught and learn a lot.

I agree, lesser time means lesser money to be spent.

But on the other hand, lesser time but bigger pot that's on the stake is also possible. Just set a time and budget at the same time so that you will be able to follow the actual budgeting of time and money.

No problem to enjoy your favorite day of the week which is likely your restday, could be Saturday or Sunday or even Friday night.

yes I agree with this, because if gambling with a long period of time will also result in something bad, maybe it can make someone become emotional and of course if gambling with emotions is not a good thing because it could be with emotions that there is a gambling game that was previously played with full control carefully but it becomes uncontrolled because the emotions that exist make everything messy, not to mention the loss of self-control that can make someone forget themselves, I mean someone can forget about other things because the focus is only on gambling.

gambling with a time that is not too long can be done because to reduce the risks that exist as well, do not let gambling make us unconscious. it will harm us in the future, because in my opinion gambling can hypnotize a person's mindset and this is not a good thing, so gambling reasonably don't overdo it.
While we can't see the future and we don't know what actually will happen. We've got the idea on how it looks like based on the experiences that we've got.

It's likely that something bad might happen or the result will be negative and will be the opposite of what you're expecting to see.

That's why if you've got more valuable things to do, don't settle for gambling and just do them first before you gamble.
1105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do not gamble with Loan Money~otherwise you will be in danger like me on: December 14, 2023, 07:48:35 PM
It is true that it is not simple but it is manageable and doable.

Those that are doing their best to get out of addiction and avoid loaning to gamble, they're doing an initiative. What must be done for them to completely get out of addiction is to be consistent.

The willingness together with temperance and consistency, the impossible can become possible for them.

If you can apply the word consistent in the changes you make slowly then it is not impossible, I mean change will always be possible but it may take time to struggle to get used to everything so as not to overdo it, at least you have made an effort and over time I am sure it will produce results that are at least good enough.

Some people especially addicts make loans as the best alternative if at that time they run out of money to bet, thinking and assuming that in the next session they will be able to win so there is absolutely no doubt for them to make a loan, but the fact remains that no matter how often and how much budget you put on gambling in reality if luck does not come at the same time then obviously the final result will always be disappointing. Borrowing money to gamble is just like you are building a new trap to trap yourself in many new problems, getting into debt? obviously that is one of the effects that will be received by gamblers who always overdo it. True, anything will be possible if you are able to apply the word consistent if you really want to change.
Yeah, it is no longer a secret why these gamblers apply for loans. And that is when they run out of money and that's what they want to do.

They think that it's the solution for their own gambling needs and so, they take loans that they don't need and the sole reason for it is just to be used for gambling.

That's not a good thing as it truly indicates you're far from yourself before and you give people the idea that you are an actual addict now.

It is an unsure thing to do.

But I think that there are people that have already chosen to go full time bounty hunting and it's like hit or miss for them. Some projects may be totally useless but there can be some bounties that they make a lot of money.

Just don't leave your job for something uncertain but if someone decides to do that, then I wish you all the good luck.

Note: NEVER send me money for prayer.
As what Matthew 10:8 says, this is the same goes for the prayers. You have received healing, good life, etc. which is specific on that verse but it also points out about prayer at least based on my understanding. So, a prayer with pay doesn't make sense.

Matthew 10:8
[...]
freely ye have received, freely give.

Just keep on praying for everyone's good health, prosperity, forgiveness of sins, taking care, spiritual blessings and other material and non material things.

If you are really doing something to get rid of your addiction then its possible but its not something that would really be that simple.You would really be needing that extreme mind control and discipline because fighting addiction does really need up that kind of dedication and discipline because if you dont have these things then you are really that still bound on sticking into that addiction.

Speaking about making use of loan money then you are just simply doing suicide because doing such  thing is never been that recommendable or something that you must do because
you are really putting up yourself on great danger considering that making up this kind of decision making on using loan money for you to gamble
is really just not that ideal to be done by someone whose really still at their right minds.
It is true that it is not simple but it is manageable and doable.

Referring to OP, crossing the red line to gamble with loan money is probably a sign that addiction is at work.
Or, he's already addicted at all.

There's no need to wait for confirmation because if you've done such, then that's for sure that you've been basically doing it wrongly because instead of other important matters that needs your finance.

You're doing to ask for the loan just for you to get ahead with your gambling addiction that satisfies you.

I think you are right because if you compare it to an alcoholic, it doesn't need for an alcoholic to be drunk to understand that there is an addiction. It is often said that addictions never go away, but that there are tools to deal with them and keep living with them. As you said it doesn't need harm to be done first in order to understand that someone is addicted to gambling. If someone takes a loan for gambling, the addiction has most likely been there and now it is like with the alcoholic who is sober but can't resist the bottle in the supermarket. The bottle is the red line and the loan is the red line that nobody should cross, but the addiction is there regardless. You are correct.
I believe that addictions can go away. It will just depend on how you're going to work on it and try to avoid things that the usual people are doing when they are addicted.

Taking a loan to gamble is a no thing to do because you are only proving that you have the signs already and that's why it shouldn't be done. A person who will do that is not going to that direction.

But, he's already in his pathway and already on the actual direction and is addicted hitherto.
1111  Economy / Economics / Re: Luxury and spending lifestyle fastest way to poverty rich kids on: December 13, 2023, 08:17:14 PM
The purpose of parents working hard is of course as you said, they want a more decent life and focus what they have managed to achieve for the good of their children, or the point is that parents want all their children to live well or even more than that. But on the other hand, there are quite a few parents who instill a hardworking spirit in their children, they only focus on pleasing all their children and their other families from the results of the hard work they have done and without giving a proper understanding of the difficulty of earning money, which is why many children of rich people live in luxury by doing whatever they want to do, buying whatever they want without thinking and also often splurging, so the idea of the title above is very true that the luxury and lifestyle carried out by the rich does not rule out the possibility of making their parents fall into poverty or return to the lowest point in life.

Understanding related to management really - must be applied to them, too much in fulfilling all the wishes of their children easily will certainly make a child more spoiled and I think it is the wrong upbringing, not infrequently we see the children of rich people who disobey their parents, it is because of the wrong upbringing that makes them too spoiled. So the application of correct understanding, especially regarding simple living, is really recommended.
Management and being humble is what they should be taught. Well, I don't want to speak about it because I know it's hard to teach kids and hopefully I'll be able to apply that to my kid.

That's because I've seen great, humble and hard working parents but then, their kids are not. It's easy to tip on what must be done but when someone goes into the actuality, everything changes.

Hi, this is not how you quote post to reply. Because you might considered to be copy pasting the post that you're trying to reply.

[Usually, we do not hear of them, till we get scammed and search for recovery services. I contacted them and they replied with the same text as the first post.]
I see, so they are just watching some communities and message random people that asks for the same service.

[I understand that most of the recovery services might be scams, but I'd prefer to grab the last chance of recovery instead of forgetting my money. They take 10% of the recovered crypto and I am not paying anything in advance. I guess the risk is very low! Because of this, I am looking forward to the experience of the @CupCakeHugs007 after one month.
I reported to the police, as well but they still couldn't do anything.]
Yeah, like there's nothing to lose anymore on your end when you try to recover them. I do understand but some may just ask for some top up and payment in advance and that's how the scam goes on.

So, if you're not paying in advance and you're not paying anything on these services and consider the percentage cut that they'll get, just be aware of such.
1113  Other / Off-topic / Re: Using A Crypto Recovery Service on: December 12, 2023, 11:42:36 PM
I received the same message from ASCH recently and hesitating whether to continue or not!
I never heard of them, what does it mean?

How was your experience with them after passing one month? Did they succeed in crypto recovery?
Most of the crypto recovery services are a scam. And even the legit one that many seemed to believe that they're genuine, fell down on its on and if you're going to use a service like this, it's unlikely that you will recover any fund that you may want to recover.

Scammers will also use this as a service offered to their potential victims.

As parents, we need to show tough love to our kids. Because if not, they will not learn in life when they grow up.
There should be a balance between love and harshness in a parent towards their children so that they don't get spoiled or become too frightened. As a parent, you shouldn't be too lenient with everyone your children do because that will spoil them very badly, but you shouldn't be too harsh on them as well because that will kill them from the inside and they will have a hard time forgetting everything.
Yeah,  I agree. Simple love, tough love, harshness and every type of discipline that you may do to your kid, is circling about what you want them to learn while they're kid so that they'll bring it when they get older.

Honestly, those who have lived being poor when they were younger. They are the people that have learned a lot with their lives.
I agree with that because I've lived through that myself. As a child, I couldn't see the luxuries of life that I used to see others experience, and to be honest, as you grow up, all those things engraved within you make you stronger as a person and keeps motivating you to keep chasing your dreams and goals.
I think this era is very different. While on 80s,90s, early 20s, the life was too simple and poverty wasn't highlighted before but as said just to be a simple way of living.

Today, people from those era have grown up and became professionals and doing things that they can't do while we're young is like our satisfaction nowadays.

You may see them buy some expensive stuff and luxuries but it is like a reward for all of their hard work for several years unlike the kids that have grown rich and are easy to spend their parents money.
It's a different feeling when you earn money and spend that money to buy something for yourself for the first time, you feel a different kind of happiness, a sort of pride in yourself and you will feel like you have become independent.
And that's what we do nowadays, when you came from a simplistic life, all you want to do is to satisfy yourself and that's what many are also doing with their kids.

Also the Miners will only stop mining bitcoin but the would continue to get the reward from transaction fees after the mining has stopped
But what will happened on the investment on stuff like they used to mine the bitcoin? Probably some will be useless or can be shifted to other coins. But seeing the end woyld be 2140 then still a longer time for the game. Im not even sure if I still alive by that time, but curious what would be the effect on it on bitcoin itself.
Actually, we should care less on that thing because it's no longer our concern and we're possible not here anymore. Confirmation for transactions are still there so, they'll still be used.

But just as usual, advancement is going to happen and people who have bough these equipment will use it somewhere else for what they can potentially mine just to continue.

Otherwise, they'll just consider it done and junk if they're no longer usable.

1117  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is next after catching up with the bitcoins bull-runs on: December 12, 2023, 09:34:24 PM
If I am not mistaken, I learnt that the bull-runs is approved activated by the ETF on the intervals of 4 years gaps then follows the bear-runs and the halving episodes.
Even without these ETF applications, the bull run will come no matter what. And take note that they're just still applications for now, take a look back on the past bull runs, there were some attempts but they didn't really counted as a factor.

So I was wondering if those who could hodl with their Bitcoins as much as during the bull-runs still sells their coins?
Yup, we do sell but we also buy whenever the price pulls back and becomes cheaper again. This is the normal strategy of the many here that we sell at the top or most likely at a price more than our investment.

And we wait until the price goes down again.
1118  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Biggest risk of P2P trade on: December 12, 2023, 08:37:15 PM
We know alrready how dangerous centralized exchanges can be = not your keys not your coins
But what are your most dangerous risks of P2P trade?
And how can we avoid it?
There's none on my end.

But what can we do to avoid them is to always make sure that the trades go through and you always verify if the other end pays first before you release your trade, that's it.

Always need to be alert with all of your trades before pushing through.

All valid questions even the nonsense ones will be remaining left unanswered. Satoshi is gone forever and he has left already his identity, his pseudonym because let us say that he is still alive now.

He won't expose himself and go to public because he'd definitely be taken by the FEDs on an instant or someone's going to knock his door and he'll never know if they're from the government or private entities that are chasing after him.

Well, even if we want to know him personally. If he's just there around roaming still on the forum he has started and founded, he'd definitely have a smile on his face while reading technical and non technical threads or just some random topics.

Day 1 end for the ESL One Kuala Lumpur. Few surprises as 9 Pandas and LGD performing subpar. Gamin Gladiators lost map 1 to secret, that was out of the blue as well, as I was expecting GG to 2-0 that matchup.
Those that have 0 loss for this day 1, they've got advantage that they won't get out of this playoffs.

Whilst those that are under and part of the bottom 2 and 4, this is going to be hard for them. This is a points system and much worse if there's a tie on the day 3.

Most teams really need to do their best to take their momentums on the very first day because if they don't do so, they'll have hard time on the second and remaining days.
