Is your future wife aware of Bitcoin? Do you think she will be happy if you gave her Bitcoin as gift?
You're the one who can answer these questions and if the answer is yes then I think she will be happy.

But as a woman, usually we prefer a girly gifts (as others mentioned already). If I were to choose I'd like a set of jewelries however since i'm also a bitcoiner and knows its value, of course I would be happy to receive Bitcoin. Anyway as her fiance, you know her personality better than anyone else and that can give you an idea on what might she prefer to receive.

Well this is hard because you already win huge. The thought that you can win again will always hunt your mind since you already experience it. But I think it depends if that's your only goal, quitting is easy for gamblers who are already contented with their profit. But for gamblers who are hopeful to win once again that's not possible to quit even after winning a life changing amount.

Yes. That's the right thing to do actually. Never returning back is a wise decision to prevent losing the money you won. But it's easy to said than done, so again, it depends on the gambler. Smart gamblers knows what's the best thing to do in situation like this.

Some gamblers are just playing for fun to kill time while others are playing and hoping to win huge. Just shows that every gamblers are different and have their own reasons on why they gamble. Moreover, it's not surprising if some people are against gambling because of the negative effect for a player without control. However, not all gamblers are the same so it's not right to judge a person just because he/she is into gambling.

Anyway, as a parent, it's understandable if you want your child to stay away in gambling because of its negative effect. However if they're old enough and earning on their own, they're already aware of what's right or wrong so they can decide for themselves. The effect of gambling can be good/bad depending on how a player treat it and not because gambling is bad.

I don't agree that debt is not good because it depends on the reason why we have to do it. Like the title says there are good and bad debts. If you're a wise person and would like to use the money to gain that would be better. As i've said before you need to have a back up plan just incase, so you're still able to pay your debt even you didn't gain from the investment where you spend the borrowed money. On the other side, asking for loan for your wants are the bad debts, but some people are not thinking if it's really worth it to take a loan just for this.

Well, probably even once in our lives we're also in a situation that we have to take a loan for a certain reason even we don't want to. But as long as you're not going to runaway and able to pay on time then it's fine. Just be responsible otherwise don't take a loan.

Some investors prefer to take risk investing on meme coins rather than the established one because of big profit in a short period if you're one of the early investors before the price increase. However, since many meme coins are existing it's also hard to spot the one that has potential to skyrocket. That's why investing in meme coins are not always profitable and more risky, you can earn huge but you can lose your money as well.

Thus, choose the project with real use case rather than a coins without utility. Do an extensive research and don't rely with suggestions because some of them are just shilling a coin since they invested on it and just want to hype for their own benefit.

This is sad. Because you already turned your $4k to $90k that's a big achievement already. But you decided to go all in without hesitation for a bigger profit, unfortunately you didn't managed to win. Do you have regrets for what you did? Because it seems you're fine with what happened.

Sometimes we will only realize what we already have once it's already gone. If only a gambler is not greedy to ask for more, we can already enjoy the profit that's already in our hands.

Indeed. It's understandable to have wagering requirements because casino is a business and it's just right to have such condition before we can withdraw. However, if the gamblers are seeing it as not fair because of high wagering, it can only discourage them to gamble because it's hard to fulfill, so they will just stay away. Obviously, it doesn't look good for the casino because gamblers might hesitate to play knowing their requirement before you can withdraw especially if you're just an average gambler.

Thus, if the casino do care to their gamblers they will not only think of what can benefit them but also take into consideration their players as well.

Publicity pa rin talaga pero yung mga taong walang alam tungkol sa Bitcoin o crypto in general, eh negative agad yung magiging tingin nila. Hindi na rin naman bago ang ganito dahil dati nga sa national tv pa nga nabalita na ginamit ang Bitcoin as tool sa pang i scam kaya maraming tao ang na discourage gumamit ng Bitcoin kasi nga akala nila scam ito.

Anyway, hindi ako aware sa movie na ito kung hindi mo pa sinabi. Nagpapakita lang yan na kahit yung mga nasa movie industry aware sa Bitcoin. Well, kung open minded ka naman at interested ka eh hindi ka basta maniniwala sa napanood mo. Nasa tao na lang kung pano nya i interpret depende kasi yan kung interesado ka para i verify kung totoo ung impormasyon na nakita/nabasa mo.

That's how it should be but many gamblers are not treating gambling as a way to entertain themselves. We all want to gain huge but gambling is not the answer to achieve that because of the high risk. If some gamblers are lucky to hit a huge jackpot, other gamblers are losing their money and some of these are desperate to accumulate funds to sustain their gambling activity just like the story in the op.

If we gamble we need to accept the result, never chase your losses and quit as early as you can. Because if you became addicted it would be hard already to stop. So keep in mind to only gamble in moderation to avoid the negative effect of gambling.

You're so unlucky if you experienced such and it might discourage you to play that particular game again. Well, I don't stay in games that giving me bad experience, the reason why i'm not a fan of slot. Fortunately on the game where I usually play (live games), I never encounter yet of having consecutive losses (20-40 like others have experienced already). But even so, the ending is still favor in the house as i'm often finishing my gambling time with losses.

I experienced already to become addicted in gambling, this is few years back. I can say it's not really easy to stop. For me it's like an illness that is hard to cure if you don't seek for a professional help and of course if you don't help yourself. There should be willingness on your part in order to overcome the addiction. It's not going to happen overnight because there's a process and you can take it slowly, focus your mind on what you want to achieve.

In my case, aside from the support of family, the changes of the environment is a big help to divert my attention and to start a new beginning. I went on vacation to a countryside where there's no access of internet and no friends that can attract me to gamble. There should be an activities that can entertained you so you won't think of gambling again.

Yes I noticed that you didn't participate on the last contest. Your artwork is one of what I always look forward because it is something unique for me. It's not really easy especially you're carving on pencil which is quite small, BTW my uncle is a wood worker too (and also tried to join using his art before) so I know the effort and time you spent to create the best one.

Anyway, there's another contest now and plenty of time to create an entry. It's been a while since I last won but it doesn't discourage me to try again. So see you all on the next one, best of luck to all who will participate.

In one year? No. But I sometimes checked my previous wager (in online casino) to see how much money I lost already. It doesn't mean i'm regretting my decision that I gamble since it's not that much, but more on thinking how many times I won because it's rare.

IMO it's not good to count your losses and think of what you can buy at the price if you didn't use it to gamble. It happened already so don't dwell on the past because it can only make you feel depress and later have regrets. Hence, if you play, it would be best to not track your losses and just focus on the present. Just make sure that you're not playing with the amount that you can't afford to lose, so it's not hard to accept the reality of experiencing losses because that's likely to happen if you gamble your money.

One source of income will only be sufficient if your job is high paying. But if you're a minimum wage earner that's not really enough to sustain the needs of the family. However, at the time of crisis that you're really in need of job to provide for the needs of your loved ones, this is not the time to be choosy. If there's an opportunity then grab it while looking for a better job. Because it's wise to have a small salary than to have nothing at all.

This is the reason why it's important to have a savings (while you're still earning) to have money in times of emergency. But we will only realize the value of saving (and investing) if we're at the point of our lives experiencing hardship and struggling financially because we didn't see this coming. So don't wait for it to happen, save and invest now, look for ways to maximize your earnings while you're still young and capable to work.

Because of the negative news circulating and affecting Bitcoin and crypto as a whole, we can expect the price to move downward or sideways due to fear of investors who are not used to seeing Bitcoin declining. So I think it's not the time yet to see the price consistently increase and reach $40k in the coming weeks/months. However it's not going to last long since halving is also near, if there's a good news that can affect the price to move upward then it might be the end of bear season.

Nevertheless, it's not impossible to reach $40k price before this year end or even higher, we just need to wait and have more patience. Thus, don't be discourage if the price is not moving the way you expect it to be. if you're a long term hodler, then don't mind the current price and continue to hold.

That's right. Many bounties are profitable before, because the rewards given to hunters had value after getting listed on exchanges. Yes there are also scam projects, but plenty of those are not scam, the reason why joining in bounties before are worth it even it takes months before you can receive your rewards and enjoy the earnings after selling.

Well, hunters didn't invest money but they exert an effort to get paid. Investors and bounty hunters are different but when it comes to patience there's a similarity since both needs to become patient to gain.

Bitcoin. Aside from the potential profit if you invest for long term, it is much safer (if you use a non-custodial wallet) because you're the one in control as long as you keep your keys securely. On the other side, you can't grow your money in banks due to the very low interest even you keep it there for years. So it's not really a good investment if you want to gain huge.

Anyway, for many of us who used to the movement of Bitcoin and aware of how it works, we know it's worth it even it can take a long period before we can see the result. Of course it's not guaranteed so one should be prepared for the outcome and only invest what you can live without.

Don't trust anyone and don't connect your wallet easily (especially if you have funds in it) just because you want to get some airdrop tokens. If this KOL is posting links to scam others, there's also a chance the account is hacked and was used by scammers to attract the people.

Hence, don't easily bite what they're offering and always take time to verify if it's reliable. Scammers are everywhere so if you don't want to end up becoming a victim then DYOR and don't be easily attracted in airdrops.

It is too risky because there's always a possibility that you'll not be repaid to the loan you've given. Lending is solely for people who are willing to take the risk and aware of the consequences if ever the borrower didn't pay. I experienced to be a lender (though it's fiat) many times and got disappointed because some people are never true to their words. So if you can't bear losing your money then lending is not for you.

Due to this I will chose to just hold my Bitcoin rather than to lend it to increase my holdings. Because it's less stress on my part incase worst thing happened. So I think it depends for each of us. But if you want to be a lender it's wise to ask for a valid collateral so you have assurance.

I can lose my Bitcoin if I gamble it so it's not a good idea if the Government decided to ban crypto trading. There's an alternative way if you really want to keep your Bitcoin (like what others already pointed out here) thus to gamble it is not only the option.

Anyway, if this happened in our country I might convert my Bitcoin to cash because I don't want to go against the rules of the Government. Then if I want to gamble, I will just use fiat as currency. Good thing this scenario is unlikely to happen here so it's not something to be worried about.
