Whether its literal a government law or church law or rules then it wont really be an assurance that people would really be following up these things on which they would really be that playing no matter
what and this is would really be according into their own interest and preference on which we do know that this is something that will really be that depending on a certain person.
No one could really be able to stop those people on dealing up with something even if its prohibited or not really that allowed, as long they could be able to see those things or paths
then this is where people would really be playing no matter what. Neither it could be sin or unlawful or whatsoever then they dont really care about it.
That's the reality of life, whether things are prohibited there will always be the people that will continue to do against it.
They go to church and then they still gamble and some churches law are being prohibited but there are followers that do break it.
This is the case that will always prove that there's no perfect person, church, system and government.

That's not a signal, that's more of your opinion and setting targets. So, this is like the signal for you guys too;
Bitcoin/USDT
Target 1: $50,000
Target 2: $51,000
Target 3: $52,000
You get the idea, and so on. That's what really what you're trying to say.
163  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: February 16, 2024, 09:42:48 PM
If gamblers need experience then no one gambles, how can they get experience if they don't gamble?
The answer might be is that they have to gamble secretly for them to attain experience. And having that experience, they can tell them that they have a gambling experience already. Sounds good?  Grin

The age benchmark is only a rule in certain countries, like in my country everyone can gamble, but in my country gambling is prohibited even at 18+, and what's strange is that here many who have not yet reached the age of 18 are already active gamblers.
It's because many youngers are curious with everything and even they're not yet at the right age, they will gamble.
164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why in some religion gambling is forbidden? on: February 16, 2024, 08:43:49 PM
Yeah, if the laws are from the state then there's no way that we can alter it and if it will be, there's a due process for it to go on.
Whilst for the laws from the churches, they can make changes anytime they wish as long as their council agrees with that and the process won't be that long.
That's why to whatever perspective you are looking that, IMHO, the important thing is you gamble your own money and you control your own life.

It depends on the religion and government/constitution you take as example for it, there are religions and branches of religions which are pretty much inflexible to the changes of their doctrines, not matter what the councils say. For example, lately the Roman Catholic Church has been more flexible to people who identify themselves as part of the LGBTQ collective, but Jehová Witnesses do not agree with it and continue to be pretty much against the existence of homosexual marriage, adoption or the existence of rights of the homosexual people in society. On the other hand, there are countries where it is pretty much easy to change civil laws, as long as there is enough support from the people to pressure lawmakers to do so.
It would be easy to lax even further tax on gambling earnings on the United States than convincing people within the Ismalic world about the individual freedom we all have and having them to gamble with no problem on their believes.
Religion is very difficult to deal with and can be very inflexible, specially Islam, people of that religion take the words of the Koran to the letter, literally and some who have been radical from their childhood would never gamble and would even condemn anyone in their family if ever caught gambling, it is different in Christianity. In Christianity is possible to even an adulterer to be given forgiveness.
I agree about those church that don't change a lot with their laws and even there's a council or there's the consensus for that change, it won't be that easy.
But those are like a few that have been established for so long and that's why no matter what changes they wanna do like allowing to gamble for just some few amounts, it won't be changed.
Still, it's on the people whether to take on those laws seriously if they're devoted but of course about the government laws, they should be devoted on it at all times.

Trading daily to earn a living is not really wise thought.
If someone can make a daily living with trading, that's a good thing. If it's just a thought and you don't know how to do it, it's not really wise.

Rather it should be like a side hustle that only adds to your normal physical job.
I agree.
If you're not yet that good, you can do it as a side hustle and that's why you still need to have a normal job to support that practice of yours as you trade.
166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What about the lost BTC? on: February 15, 2024, 11:29:19 PM
Something like adding more BTC in an equivalent amount for those lost BTC, or something similar.
It is not possible to add more supply for Bitcoin. It's a fixed supply and the last Bitcoin will be mined after a century and more.

Would it be positive for the currency or could bring some caos?
If you think adding more, it's going to bring chaos. But if it's about the lost Bitcoins, they're making your and mine bitcoins rarer and that adds more value to it.

Many young people don't save, in fact they only use their money to buy things that are currently trendy that's not wrong,  but it's just that because of that, they don't think about their future which they have to prepare for.  This is the main problem that makes many young people can't save, because they only think about temporary pleasures.
That's wrong because they don't think their future and they're applying the principle of YOLO.
Yeah, it may not be wrong on their perspective but soon they will realize it that they have to be more serious with life when they become older.
It's not always green in the pastures and that's why they also need to save for the rainy days.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why in some religion gambling is forbidden? on: February 15, 2024, 09:42:56 PM
Just like laws of the government, there's a separation of church. The separation of church and state and they can make their own laws from where they are based.
I think that they're forbidding it due to the result of it to one. For a member of theirs to remain faithful to the church is that they need to avoid gambling so their minds and souls are only focused to church works and not with activities like gambling that might separate their hearts and minds from servicing there.

There is a very important difference between the laws established by Churches and laws established by the state, the former ones are option while one is alive and only have an impact alledgely when has passed to the other side, on the other hand, the laws made by the men and kept by the states on the planet are not optional or are not supposed to be optional, when broken, there will be immediate consequences to the people, negative ones. In the eyes of society and the laws made by men, gambling is not a crime and anyone has the right to partake on it as long as does not do harm to anyone else directly.

Also, depending on the church and the sect, the motivations to forbid gambling to believers may be different from other churches. Some churches will forbid gambling because it encourages behavior associated with greed and love for money, since Jesus Christ told their followers they cannot serve money and serve God at the same time, the interpretation for bishops has been gambling as a manifestation of love for money. Sects, try to control the life of their followers and the prohibition to actives like gambling, sports and even sexual relationships has more to do with applying that total control by the cult leader on those people who sadly got brainwashed. At least, that is the way I see it.
Yeah, if the laws are from the state then there's no way that we can alter it and if it will be, there's a due process for it to go on.
Whilst for the laws from the churches, they can make changes anytime they wish as long as their council agrees with that and the process won't be that long.

170  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Im looking for funded traders to trade with my capital on: February 15, 2024, 07:58:44 PM
If you have your method and instructions then why not just trade your own money and why there's a need to find for traders to fund them?
I know that this can be sort of normal deal for some but sometimes this isn't going to do well and for that reason, it might be both devastation for both of you.
Deals like this that you find online are likely to scam either of you if ever you've got some plans for that trader or the trader has got some plans against you.
171  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why do many people fail in trade? on: February 14, 2024, 10:34:02 PM
The larger the funds used, the easier trading will be, because with a small target percentage we can already get a large fiat nominal value.
Technically that is right that the bigger funds you have, the easier you will be able to hit your target because if the percetange is just 5% or little, you can deal with it easily.

That way the level of risk is small and keeps your psychology healthy. Maybe the OP was wrong in what he said, if a novice trader is given large capital, it will be very risky, in addition to techniques that have not yet been mastered, have minimal experience and are still psychologically nstable.
Newbie traders shouldn't take larger funds when they trade because the chance that they're going to waste that is very high.
172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: February 14, 2024, 08:58:45 PM
That is the legal age for most of the countries and that's why it's the norm for people to let young adults gamble with that age.

Many of the times it's understandable when some depends on another person for financial assistance (although not good) but when one is depending on one for assist of money because he or she wants to gamble it's bed because the money the person is given to the gambler is what the gambler can not afford to lose.
Ages have this have their part time jobs and they can spend on anything they want to like gambling.
The tight laws that OP has for making people have experience in gambling is actually a good thing to stop those age ranges to gamble if they want to gamble but lacks experience.

Crypto is just a jungle that has a lot of risk regardless
And just like in the actual jungle, there are traps and beasts that might devour you. That's the same here, you'll never know if it's going to be on your next step.
Or there are wild beasts that are watching you just like the term we use about the whales buying those sold cheap bitcoins due to panic and they're the ones devouring the weak hands(animals) on this jungle.
174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: February 14, 2024, 06:49:04 PM
I have exactly the same position, I rarely play lately because I don’t have enough time for it. I prefer betting on sports, especially boxing, I have several favorite boxers and since they rarely bet on my favorite champion several times a year. Sometimes I also bet on football, but this can only happen if we are watching a match in the company of friends and someone there will also bet, then the viewing will be a little more interesting.I have no thirst for the game because I have very little free time to get completely involved in it all.
This is actually a good escape goat when you're trying to quit gambling. When your time isn't enough to gamble and you'll eventually learn that to yourself that you're not gambling much anymore.
Soon, you're not going to bet anymore because of how hectic your schedule is and on how you're going to be more busy doing more important things than gambling.
That's how you make yourself flee from gambling and it can be an easy strategy because you have other important things to cater.
175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A student investing in bitcoin? on: February 14, 2024, 01:17:54 PM
Well, I would say that investing is a good choice for you but as been said, make yourself ready to adopt the volatile nature of the market.
And to remind you not to be greedy.
As a student, he'll for sure going to feel the bad days and will be disappointed to see what's happening on the market. With that, it might make him think to quit.
But that's part of investing into Bitcoin and as everyone can see, Bitcoin goes $51k is an interesting choice and will make him see that he'd able to invest well throughout the time and even a good gift during his graduation.
176  Economy / Economics / Re: Pay discrimination on: February 13, 2024, 11:08:29 PM
Regarding sales, there are always differences between skilled and unskilled workers.
It's hard to learn and be good with that. Some talented people can say that it is for them and the majority of us would just avoid any type of work related to it.
And for that reason the pay is much higher for the talented ones and to those that don't have much experience and can't deliver good results to the company at the beginning might just receive the starting salary very low.
177  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You lose more when you over trade on: February 13, 2024, 09:52:06 PM
At the beginning,  the lesser the better  as you can practice the strategy with much deeper knowledge to acquire,  you can adjust once you already master your created patterns and strategies.
Yeah, adjustments do come when you've already made yourself master with any strategy. But you can always adjust also when you're trying.
Find what suits you best as you trade because every strategy that you know has its own pros and cons and whatever is working for you.
So, to find and adjust with any strategy that you've come up with and together with how you practice your money management will help you a lot.

Getting a golden ticket visa will cost $250,000 to $500,000 or even more than that. And that's why it's not worth it if that's the only money that I've got.
But if you're a single person then I think that might be enough for you to get into another country and for that reason, you'll be able to enjoy that visa and can go to many other countries where you may find another opportunities.
Seriously, with high cost these days, I'll just save and invest that money and won't be spending a lot.
This is something that someone should really be tending to realize on, the amount that you've won wont really be that sufficient for you to be able to get outside of the country on which those amounts would really be just that only covered up with the expenses that you would be making Ex. Getting a visa on which its true that it is really that hell of a lot costly and you might be able to overlook into this one.
$2M might sound that too big into those countries but in others then it wont really be that something big, yes its really that still significant but if we do tend to check or look out on what are the things that it could
be able to cover out, then you would really be able to tell on yourself that it was not enough on going outside the country or its never been worth or would be enough.
Before it was really big but thanks to inflation that these big amounts before have made it kind of lower these days. And for that reason, it's important to analyze your situation and your kind of lifestyle. If you don't keep up with decreasing and changing it, your money will gone too soon without even realizing it. That's why moving out to another country may just be a bad choice. But if you're a hard working person and you won't be relying that much on that huge money, you may be able to do it. But hey, we all want to retire early.
179  Economy / Economics / Re: Coping with Risk. on: February 13, 2024, 07:21:00 PM
There is risk in every investment. Our priority is to take precautions against all risks and act safely when investing. Sometimes, even if you take all precautions, certain risks may occur. As with everything, there are risks at every stage of investment.

It is obvious that people who are especially new to investing are more vulnerable to fraud. This is where experience comes into play and we understand how important it is to be knowledgeable and spend time in the market.

There is always risk, as knowledge increases, the amount of risk decreases.
While being aware of the risk, what we can do is to check all of certain risks that we're going to take and if we're able to mitigate it.
Risks are certain and we have the option to pursue it or not. If you're good with small amounts to take the risk, you'll definitely learn a lot from them.
But if you think that risks should be accompanied with larger amounts, I don't think that it should be done at first tries when you trade or invest.
180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where Do You Want To Go To If You Win $2 million On Lottery on: February 13, 2024, 05:19:02 PM
Moving out of the country will be that expensive. I'll just use that money to invest more with many assets and businesses.
I'd grow that money by doing that and looking for more passive incomes and investments for my money to grow on its own.
Inflation rate is high, that sound of a million might be good but you don't know that when you spend that on many things, it won't be that much.
Really that expensive and you would really be just that easily be spending that $2M and might be having those kind of regrets that you have just spend up that much and
its true that cost of living is really that high and 2M isnt really just that too big for you to be able to be that confident that you could live out your life into those other places
with those amounts.Unless if you have been able to win up $10-50 then i might considering on moving out but if we do speak about 2M then it wont really be that
sufficient for you to migrate it out specially if you do came from on a 3rd world country. It cant really be just that something that you could be able to deal with.
Getting a golden ticket visa will cost $250,000 to $500,000 or even more than that. And that's why it's not worth it if that's the only money that I've got.
But if you're a single person then I think that might be enough for you to get into another country and for that reason, you'll be able to enjoy that visa and can go to many other countries where you may find another opportunities.
