401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Proverbs and Sayings that Act as Triggers to Gambling on: February 01, 2024, 04:39:50 PM
Well it is never wrong to take the risk to almost anything however if it is with gambling, taking the risk creates a new definition. And my conclusion? anything tht is too much, is a bad thing and that is simply how gambling works. It is a cycle of continuous risk taking. Nothing's bad as long as you can handle the consequences however as you continue doing so, the drive to just take the risk could be a drive to win and become rich which are two different things. From being a gambler for years, I could say that it is not the activity which is bad, but the intention and expectations the gambler is having, which manifests to a bad or worse outcome.

No quote will push someone to wrongdoings . It will always depend to how an individual will interpret and recieve the message. Gambling is simple however a gambler's goal is not.
402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: January 31, 2024, 07:41:57 PM
Nah, just in line with the other superstitious beliefs we haave as we grow up. Well, as long as it won't cost you a dime from doing so, then nothing would be wrong. But if you will still pay to support those beliefs which has no significance to the gambling game you play, that is where you will be wrong. Imagine spending a buck for seer or other people with same purpose in this topuc, and still losing during your bets. Nothing's guaranteed and they are more likely saying things which will be in accordance with majority's expectations and awaress. Given that it has no certain of things, you'll hear the same set of people who
were avodided .

I do also understand those gamblers who are doing exactly the same way as with the problematic ones. They are just saying things we want to experience that. On my end, whether i lose or win.
403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: stop the unnecessary blame on gambling whenever you get unlucky on: January 31, 2024, 07:14:12 PM
Frustrations, of course. Maybe it is the gambler's way to ease it by blaming or displacing the negative feeling from losing to the game itself. Everyone's aware thaat there's a tendency for us to lose our bet but why do we sometimes, if not often, tends to transfer the hate? Simply because we regret things and that we want to release our emotions and feelings of desperation. Unfortunately, it will just continue like a cycle and you will never learn from it unless you accept losing and to not bet that much next time. For sure, if the amount you lost is tolerable, you won't be in such situation because things will still be fine especialy with your finances. We just have no full control of our luck, therefore being preventive of extensive loss is a must to avoid regret afterwards.
I believe that before one make a decision in life, they should've already weighed the consequences of making the right or wrong choice, then put their fate on luck coupled with their little knowledge concerning what they're about to decide on, so why complain and play the blame game when things go wrong? "Share your thought on how gambling has come through for you if you got any".

I'm sure no gambler doesn't know that they will lose their money. gamblers know the risks and clearly know the chances of winning or losing. but they still decide to bet, so there is nothing to regret about gambling activities.
If the impact of gambling is too bad for a gambler, then it is not the gambling that should be considered bad. This is a game, if you misinterpret it then it is the gambler's fault.
Casinos indeed offer winnings as part of promotions. but the win is still based on luck. so if we are not lucky, then we have to accept defeat.
If anyone forced you to gamble, then he/she is the one to be blamed. Are there any? for sure no other than ourselves took the initiative to do so. Other than acceptance with unwanted outcomes, there's no other thing to do. No one is to blame even yourself; you just have to accept that things do happen in gaambling, both desired and unwanted consequences. If you know to yourself that you cannot handle the stress this activity is giving on your end, then you better quit to save yourself from those negative reactions. Gambling is open to anybody of legal age but a good future won't be for everyone just because they wanted it.
404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Responsible Gambling Practices Most People Ignore and Sleep on on: January 30, 2024, 05:40:43 PM
We may list as many as possible ways to gambling responsibly however people would continue 'sleeping' or ignoring it simply because self discipline is lacking in particular with their gambling habits. There is a factor which pushes a gambler outside his "circle of discipline" and that is for sure, money. Many gamblers, before they astart to actually bet, are having ideas of getting rich from playing. Given that the reward they are seeking is high, it requires them to risk big as well to create or establish a match on their goal. So maybe, it is one's mindset which should be managed first before anything else.
That is a really good topic
One interesting thing to talk about too is that gambling shouldn’t probably be approached as a professional activity for most people, much better to see it like a way to have fun or a hobbie and spend only a small percentage of your money on it

It takes time, practice and a clear set of goals to avoid falling for some of the traps
That's gambling as its purpose which is as a leisure activity. People are just having high desires out of gambling and that might be a reflection of how tough living and being rich is, at the present. Unlike before wherein people's mindset is to work hard for their dreams, people in gambling industry are in some instances,  hoping to reach that goal through gambling. The outcome? they get too hooked up in this activity to the extent that they are willing to lose everything for that 'chance' to get rich. But as we all know, chances are just possibilities and will never guarantee or assure things.
405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You can not win if you do not risk on: January 30, 2024, 03:24:12 PM
I view it as 'You cannot win anything if you won't risk for it', of course referring to gambling. Unlike with other things wherein hardwork is a factor to 'win' or achieve something, gambling requires luck. Although we haave no full control of our fortune, taking the risk indeed will at least give justice for our chances of winning no maatter how small it is. Taking the risk on the other hand is testing whether outcome will be in favor with your assumptions or not. But to make it clear, taking the risk won't guarantee winning which is why some people are afraid of doing so. Those who will try risking will have a chance and those does not, won't have any chances at all.
Good day guys, how is the gambling industry helping you this period?

However I just want to say that in the game world gamblers are always there to bet and the important thing here is when a gambler can not risk he also can not win, true or false?
Many might still believe that a gamblers who's just gambling at the first day might end up winning w huge amount of money that he wasn't expecting but the truth is that as long as you stake on bet you have already risk your money, be it big or small.

Let me tell a story of why you should not risk big.It is a joke we gamblers tell to each other.Once a time was a son playing poker and tells to his dad,dad you used to play poker right?yes answer the father.What would have you done if you had 4 aces dad?I would bet my house said the dad.Good come as the house was won by someone else said the son meaning he lost the house to a royal flush.That is why it is best to only play what you can afford to lose and not risk it.
Quite not clear but the thoughts are there. I agree, going head to head with risk is not always the solution; high risk means high reaward but it could also be a huge loss. The question is, would you still match the risk? Eitherway would be valid because there's a house to he won if you'd win, but whaat if you don't? Taking the risk is necessary as long as that risk is tolerable to the gambler. It is okay to wish for something big but be sure to still be realistic of the odds and chances. Always be mindful of the consequences in every bet. Risk will always be present with gambling but as a gambler, your responsibility is to lessen it and bear with both negative and positive outcome.
406  Other / Off-topic / Re: Before you start gambling, do some research first on: January 30, 2024, 02:36:36 PM


He have gotten used to this way because he started gambling all by himself and he won some money but end up even fuelling his addiction. What is next? Any tip?
Try asking him to seek professional help for him to be assessed properly and to be determined if he is just a problematic gambler or addicted already. Well, regardless of having a source of income, a gambler won't have an assured future in gambling. Luck and fortune determines whether you will be succeeding or not. On my end, I'd be fine not having progress with profit as long as my bank account is not receeding because of it. It would only mean that I do sometimes win, and sometimes lose, which is a normal thing to experience in gambling. Is it a good thing? Not for everyone but on my end yes because I enjoy the activity in general. My goal is to avoid losing that much, and fortunately I am still in profit although not ideal to many especially those who are expecting too much from gambling.
If a person wants to succeed in gambling, then, first of all, he must learn to restrain his emotions and try to manage his money rationally. It is also necessary to choose the type of gambling, in which at least something depends on the actions of the player, and not just on his luck
It is defining what success is for a gambler. If it is huge profit then nothing will contribute into it except for luck to both skill based and luck based gambling games. Yes controlling emotion would help to lessen the tendencies for a huge loss but will not increase or guarantee winning bets. Sometimes, no matter how good your analysis is with sportsbetting, you won't be able to bag the win if you are unlucky for that day. So question, is there a success in gambling? Yes, but subjective. As I mentioned above it could be enjoying the experience and not losing that much or to be in small profit at least.
407  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best time to buy BTC NOW? on: January 29, 2024, 07:32:17 PM
I think waiting for a little bit longer would be better and that's what I plan to do so because for me it is still too early. There is no enough confirmation yet for a bullrun and therefore, a price correction could still take place. The confirmations I am checking are higher rte of volatility, most of the projects are succeeding, and higher market volume for major coins in the market. A huge news will be also contributing to this like with the previous ones. Also, I do expect it to happen months after the halving itself. Nothing guarantees the right or perfect timing to buy but if you know to yourself thaat you can endure whatever direction the market goes right now, then investing at the moment would still be fine, and wait for things to again reach the previous ATH.

My take is for you to know your tolerance as an investor especially with loss. If ever you choose to invest right now, and a huge decline happened in the market, would you be able to be consistent of holding? Loss is temporary as long as you can endure seeing it and will just be permanent if you will choose to cut loss and sell early. Eitherwa is valid and dependent with your financial stability and capacity outside your bankroll. But if you know to yourself that you cannot, then don't rush things.
408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are memecoins really important for the crypto market? on: January 29, 2024, 06:33:01 PM
If it is with the mentioned importance, then answer is no. Meme coins are most of the time not having utility and therefore not haaving enough usage to pull investors towards this industry. However, it is a profitable coin as we saw on the previous years such as with SHIB, $PEPE, and more. It just happened to be most of the time manipulated by whales due to high token supply and low market value. Succeeding memetokens are having high market price increase on its listing with different exchangers especially big ones such as Binance. Problem is the fact that not all meme tokens are having the same outcome upon listing so better be careful of going all out. It would be much better to wait for corrections in its price. If I would be asked, I think meme coins are only okay for short term investments.

I have experienced doing some swing trades with meme tokens and fortunately I gained decent profit. However if it is a coin to be advised over major coins, then I doubt of it especially those which are still on price ceilings at this point. A good alternative for me if it is among other altcoins in this industry but not having that much of an impact in general.
409  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: To any Bitcoin holder who lost their seed: How did you lose it? on: January 29, 2024, 05:19:43 PM
Never experienced losing it and wouldn't want to. When I first started in this industry, I know how to value money. I know what risk is present with projects and coins. Given all these, losing your Seed phrase is being negligent. If you value something, you would be caring too much for it and negligence is what you will want to avoid . Even with my physical wallet, I always check it before leaving a plaace whenever I am outside simply because I cannot afford losing any amount so what more with my seedphrase wherein all of my holdings are present? Again, if it is important then put value into it. And if you happened to made mistake before, be sure to learn from it and avoid doing the same thing. There are ways to keep it secured. There are instances such information is being stolen and would you allow it that your own careless actions would cost you that much? Without anyone forcing to get it from you?

This is just a realistic point of view of giving importance to what is important.
Writing them down in a book works wonders, but like a trusty sidekick, it's good to have a backup. Splitting the phrase across multiple locations, offline and hidden like buried loot, is a genius move. Remember, secrecy is your shield against prying eyes and digital vultures.

Screenshots are a big no-no, clouds are even worse – think of them like leaky sieves for your crypto. Hardware wallets? You're preaching to the choir! They're like Fort Knox for your digital gold, way sturdier than any software wallet.
I tend to use mnemonics and first letters are what is written on my notes. Then the whole words would be mispelled to other words and to other pages of my booklet, secured in vault. It should be something that the drunk version of you at least won't know.
410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are every activities/competitions with stake known to be gambling? on: January 29, 2024, 04:11:53 PM
Put it simple. You staked something with hopes of getting more in return and accepting the fact that you could lose it, that's gambling. An activity will not only be a gamble if you don't have any expectancy of getting anything if ever your assumption is either correct or not. For xample watching a basketball match and you assumed that team A will win. If you won't lose or gain anything from thaat assumption then that will just be an opinionated guess, nothing more and nothing less. But if there's someone who would oppose on your assumption and would be willing to put something as the consequence of wrong assumption, then that's gambling, in any form of reward of consequence there is after an assumption.
You can defined it your way but my interest is to understand this>>> Are sports games or related competitive activities which stakes are involved between both sides or teams also gambling?
Yes, if there is staked "money" is involved or anything that has "value" to bet on, it will be called gambling.
But the event itself is for competition to determine who is the best on that field, and prize will be given to the winner. The organizers for betting are the one responsible why sports especially those super hyped, too many fan base sports are related to gambling.
Term 'value' indeed or something which is valuable to the counterparty could be gambling. If no assumption differs and no agreement is formed but an exchange of things was done, then that's just a trade and that also means no risk is present on losing something and not getting anything out of a wrong guess.
But what if it has no value?

Perhaps some of your friends agreed that they'll allow you to punch them in the face if he had a wrong assumption on the outcome of a match. Is this gambling? Yes as well 'coz there is a presence of contrast with opinions and that there is a consequence and reward at the end of the game, which is again, could be in any form.
411  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There is nothing like it since the past 12 years on: January 29, 2024, 02:43:35 PM
Volatility and demand simply brought it for us and it is still a long way for this technology which is still not known by many countries at this point. Slowly, more companies are starting to adopt with blockchain technology which is really something to look forward with in the future. Truly a game changer in the world of investment and assets. But we shouldn't be too confident given that issues are still present and that Bitcoin still needs improvement especially with transaction fees and overall usage. For us, we all know how profitable it is as an investment but given the presence of risk, we should still managing factors affecting its market value. The rate of decline on its price is always faster than its uprise. Just a warning.
~snip~
However, indeed, things can't always go well for people who don't have any source of income. Most become homeless eventually and that is a struggle for life since you don't even have a place to live and you wander around on the streets hoping for a miracle that might change your life and give you some hope again.

As clarified by OP, it wasn't that he/she didn't have a source of income. It wasn't as if OP didn't have anything. He/she actually was receiving pocket money. He/she also had some side hustles online. As a matter of fact, aside from having online jobs and other ways to earn online, he/she even won from freebitco. So, he/she even has some spare amount for gambling. I find it a little bit hard to consider somebody eating only a single meal a day but can gamble and invest in Bitcoin.
No one would be able to live with single investment unless you have many that it'll fill every gap concerning your daily expenses. With Bitcoin being profitable in this discussion, the increase is not consistent and continuous which means profit will only come in periods and seasons if you're in long term. And with short term investment into it, you won't always win for sure, no one can, which is a conflict if you are someone who plans to only engage into this technology as your primary source of income.

Indeed everyone's dream to someday have their own profitable investments but before you get in such financia state, you will be required of a decent and stable source of income 'coz that's simply a necessity to make a living. Take little steps and nothing will be succeeding over a single night.
412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gaurd yourself this year against crypto scams on: January 29, 2024, 01:52:09 PM
If things are too unrealistic then trust your instincts and avoid from those platforms and projects. They want foolishness and greed from their victims. Of course they would make offers which can lure investors' attention for their own benefit. If it is with project's legitimacy then there are ways to basically lessen the chance of being scammed. Try joining communities inside and outside thiss forum. Also consider checking the project's platforms and look for reviews and opinions from its audiences. You may also consider directly asking in this forum for opinion and all of these won't cost you any dime. Solutions are not that expensive and sometimes all we need is eagerness and will if you are wanting to avoid those suspiscious crypto projects.
The more we think about money, the more possible we fall into scams because these scam projects offer good-to-be true rewards that could really tempt someone. And very unfortunate that this is what actually happened to most of us before we found out that it was a scam. 

 - stay informed
 - take extra effort to do research
 - never rush
 - be cautious in new projects

Legit projects don't offer huge shares but scam projects offer impossible things...it is easy to find them out unless we think always about money.
It is normal to expect for monetary returns when checking for possible projects to invest; that's the sole reason why you are investing anyway. Problem is with misleading information. Many projects are failing but that doesn't mean they are all fraudalent. There are instances people are confused of these two concepts. Scam projects are those which are not even finishing their token sale and those which are unresponsive when it comes to project's long term growth. Fortunately, I only encountered failing ones on my stay in this industry and never been a victim of scam related projects. Again, it is normal to be eyeing with profit however we shouldn't be too greedy of it that we would be "gambling" our money which is different from investing.
413  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Halving effect on: January 28, 2024, 07:53:05 PM
Well, there will always be two sides of an argument. Some are saying that history will just repeat itself but there are still people who believes that changes might take plaace although on the same direction which is the trend of the maarket price. For sure many of us are thrilled with what we are witnessing at this point. Only a few was able to anticipate that an increase will take place and push prices upward. It somehow creates a domino effect for example, there's really no signs of market recovery last year but it still managed to break the $32k mark before the year ended. And from that people are too crazy to invest which supports the price increase on the other hand. Regardless of that lack of assurance if prices will now be higher, people are already thrilled of what could happen next as the dates for halving is coming nere. With this, you have to create a decent plan for it and to be able to still anticipate the worse possible thing to be experienced.
414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's the possibility of discovering a memecoin that could change your life? on: January 28, 2024, 06:06:25 PM
Low for sure if it is a representative possibility to most of us. Meme tokens are simply which makes it complicated in my opinion. Most of the time it has no utility and decent roadmap so where will you be depending or checking upon seeing an alike project? Will it just be token supply alone? When it comes on demand, you'd only know once break out happen. Try checking the prices of listed meme tokens on your exchanges and check if there's a pattern from one another. Sudden pumps and sudden dumps, that makes it hard to determine which one should you invest your money into. You'd be only depending with volume and new related to top cryptos in this industry. I know it is risky to invest in any project in this industry but I think "high risk high reward" is evident as well to meme tokens. Try joining communties wherein such token is being discussed in order to help you with your decision and also to not be too careless with the projects you are at.
415  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you ready for the Bitcoin bull market? What's your plan? Some ideas for you on: January 28, 2024, 04:59:47 PM
I was planning to buy a new car but since bullish direction is obvious with market prices of crypto, I decided to postpone my plan and just wanting to put all of it for third quarter of this year where uprise is expected. My plan is to accumulate as much as I can and hold it until the next cycle of Bitcoin.  I know things won't happen in a instant so yes, I still create a margin for my bills and expenses and to avoid the tendency of pulling out my assets and holdings. I know most of us are having or thinking of the same thing and I hope all of us will make big profit by that time this market again break the ceiling. Planning will be always needed to lessen mistakes. Remember that entry point could be crucial so better be conscious of making rush decisions.

Based on charts and previous witnessing of bulltrend, things will not be consistent. It is important to know when is the right time to sell or buy again if you are into swing trades. And if you are looking forward with long term holding, be sure to avoid checking smaller time frames or prices from time to time. Know your goal and create your own vision of how you will be making a move this time. Everything is in our hands and that should be an enough reason for us to be careful for the right timing.
416  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: January 28, 2024, 04:04:43 PM
Not only as a gambler but also as an individual. It will alwys be necessary to maake a living unless you already have established yourself and that you know to yourself that you have enough savings to live with (which I doubt if you're not in line with bill gates). And with gambling, well I do know some people who are relying on gambling when it comes on their expenses. They are winning and all but whenever I ask them if they would suggest the same thing with other people, they all refused. For them it is not sustainable and stress free. You wouldn't win consistency and there'll be times you'd earn nothing for the day or week or even month. A fixed salary from a decent job would be better or if you can establish yourself an investment or business which could suffice your need, would be best.

Everyone could engage to gambling but gambling is not for everyone. Meaning, not all gamblers will win the jackpot or even win big often. If that's possible in the first plaace then we should all be rich by now right? Why isn't that so? Be practical. If by now you don't have a family to live with then don't be too confident and always be futuristic. Wouldn't it be better if you have a fixed income from a job for your bills and happened to win big from gambling for your wants? I would prefer that than to let my mind be consumed by 24/7 thinking of where will I be getting money to pay the bills for next month.
417  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How fast can one achieve Crypto millionaire status with meme coin? on: January 28, 2024, 02:38:02 PM
Depends on the market and your capital as well. With capital or the amount you will invest, then obviously the larger amount brings bigger profit. And with market conditions, and as we all know how the market price of meme tokens move, most of the time it is just relative to major coins' price direction. Not all meme token especially new ones, are successful upon their release to exchanges.  We are just currently thrilled because there are many meme tokens lately which had a price break out but since we are in this crypto industry wherein no certainty is present as well as consistency with price directions, then it would be wrong to assume that climbing the million profit mark would be easy. Have a wrong entry and you'd be squeezed in deep loss. Never be too confident.

Remember what happened with SHIBA?  It should be a enough warning to investors who are too confident of meme tokens. These coins are mostly carried by hype alone and whale manipulation. If you know how to ride the tide then that would be fine. It is also unnecessary to focus only with the profit goal; be mindful always with the risk present. Volatility itself speaks for that risk.
I think the possibility is there, but not everyone gets that opportunity, maybe only 10 out of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people.
It's different if you buy a coin that has potential and is recognized, many people can become rich but not in a short time like memecoin.
Eitherway will not bring you guarantee of profit and if you are here for years, you'd know things won't always be in accordance with our expectations. Price charts are  good indicator and investing to potential alone will still be some sort of a gamble.
418  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why the rush to gain profit in crypto? on: January 28, 2024, 12:36:23 PM
There are maay stories revolving around different social media platforms showing how much some investors have earned from this industry, in general, but not only with Bitcoin which is one of the misconceptions. Probably, those stories made an impression to non crypto investors and new ones in this industry that things are easily done by just investing. I can testify that it is not that easy 'coz if that is true, why are people losing money from their crypto investments? Disregarding the idea of fraud projects and scams and more on bad investment decision alone. Imagine investing at this moment with a decent mount and happened to be push by circumstances to sell early; instant loss especially if the market price is down by that time.

Same thing with wrong speculations of how the market will move. The market price of cryptos are volatile in nature and that means pattern and analysis could work however will not guarantee profit. There are sudfen pump and dumps in the market due to different factors. Keep in mind that demand is a general variable and is affected by mny factors such as news, FOMO, or even events thaat haas no direct relationshi with this industry. Familiar with war on the previous year which somewhat triggered a dump with the market prices? Not to mention whale manipulations. Nothing's easy as long as risk is present.
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When I'm emotional, I LOSS! on: January 28, 2024, 11:26:33 AM
Everytime you are having negative emotions like sadness, frustration, and the likes, you would often push your luck until you win without being aware of how big the loss is becoming. We should always keep in mind to never let our emotions take over or to let our emotions play for us because negative consequences will be more likely disregarded. Accept that there will be times you are losing. If you're pissed of what happened on your day, avoid playing. Your emotion will just be diverted to gambling and will just create another problem on your end. Take a pause and engage to other activities that will ease your mind and will kill your time. You'd be more pissed of almost everything once you suffered from huge loss instead of calming down.

Just like in the middle of argument. Your emotions will be at its peak which will push you to say things you don't relly mean and if we would associate it with gambling., those unecessary words will be frustrated bets. Given that losing is more likely to happen, what should we expect? You won't be satisfied with both your profit and loss whenever you are being emotional. You will be impulsive 'coz you are more focused with the act of just betting and not minding what could happen on your bankroll. Always have self awareness whenever you are betting especially if you care with the money you are depositing. If you hope to not be in huge loss, which is simply another negative emotion, then be careful.
420  Economy / Economics / Re: Save while young better than wait on: January 27, 2024, 08:11:27 PM

All young people, understand that time an money are linked. It is not the same to invest early than late, it is not the same  to invest more early that try to invest more later. 100 is worth 100 today, but 800 in 20 years if you play it safe but well. Make no mistake, you will need to start creating your wealth.
It is normal to make mistakes sometime, and that's essential for you to learn. Investing indeed is good to become a habit on your younger years however, if it is forced upon and not due to your initiative and interest, you'll just end up with burn out. Everyone has a choice to invest but why aren't we all doing so? Some people became successful on their jobs as well. Point here is to be responsible of your future but still seek for passion. Being passionated of something you engage yourself with, wil not be a burden but an inspiration for your future. Your passion to a particular thing will be your fuel in the long run. Let things come naturally. It is never wrong to enjoy things while you're young given that life is short, just do it with awareness and be cautious of things that will drag you down or will make your future miserable. Enjoying is different from destroying it.
Look, you can be old and rich or young an poor, but being old and poor is bad shit.

A surefire way of doing the wrong kind of things is to spend your money early or try to live a good life quickly without thinking about the future. Or if you have an ok job or income to think that is enough, even if you cannot save.

All young people, understand that time an money are linked. It is not the same to invest early than late, it is not the same  to invest more early that try to invest more later. 100 is worth 100 today, but 800 in 20 years if you play it safe but well. Make no mistake, you will need to start creating your wealth.

Couldn't agree more, a drop of water makes a mighty ocean, a little savings from what we make as a young one can go a long way to assist us in the time of old age.
A small investment can make a big difference in the future depending on the type of investment it is. It is always good to make plans for the future, especially in the years when it is difficult to do hard work. I think planning for the future should be a priority for everyone. 
Planning is indeed necessary for a better future. Being aware of the things around you and being able to anticiate your future is already something to look forward with. There's always a better way to do things and I agree with taking small steps just to begin with. It is also important to not rush things in order to avoid exhaustion along the way. Everyone dreams to have an investment  someday but not everyone is able to do so. One is assumption since there are people who prefers large scale investment right off the start which buffers their initiative 'coz they are being intimidated by their own expectations.
