2061  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Mantra After, while playing And Before You Gamble on: June 18, 2022, 06:45:17 PM

Just like them that use mantras, you're free to express your opinion about it. Some will say the same thing as what you've said and it's not going to change.
No one forces anyone to use spells or anything. It's just that they've said that there really are people who uses it for their own comfort and belief and on that part, even you tell them that they don't have to use it. You won't stop them and the same as you that tells everyone that gambling is for entertainment, that also won't stop the professional gamblers to gamble for a living.

Personally, I don't believe in these things because I know that we create our own fate and believing in it won't help increase our chances to win while gambling but that is only natural as from time to time we get to interact or meet some people who believe in these things especially if we gamble often, not because they are guaranteed to win but they have these sort of things to boost their confidence and that is their way to comfort themselves. Some may find it illogical but I find them interesting.

It's interesting in the way that they are believing that in that kind of mantra they can change the fate of their gambling activities, but there's none in reality they are just basing it from how they look at it as charm or lucky thing that will engage them to a positive mindset that some can turn it into a winning outcome, though there's no exact explanation about it, it's only inside the person who believes on it.
Specially if someone do really able to win up something big and that time they had made out some chants, lucky charms or physical actions and behaviors then that's the time they would really making their selves believe that it could really be that possible on winning if they do such thing before they would make out some bets.Well, we do have our own beliefs and understanding on things and as long you don't put yourself and other people into harm then I don't really see something wrong with this.

Emotions are always involved while trading because it is not easy to make money,and loosing it seems to be very simple,that is why when one wants to put it into trading,he takes time  to think about it critically before puting it into a business.
When one looses money in trading,there is every tendency that your emotions will be involved especially when you are not financially bouyant enough.But when one is is stable financially,he can easily get his mind off the money he has lost.
We are just humans and it's understandable that you would really be reactive when it comes on situations that do really involves money and if you do see that your losing or having deep negatives then normal reactions could really be there and this is where trading experience and knowledge do differs on each person on where handling out situation is something differs in between.You can't just make out some decisions without any consideration if ever it would be effective or not.
2063  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: High odds or low odds, which do you prefer? on: June 18, 2022, 04:52:49 PM
You shouldn't be looking at the odds period. High odds or low odds, a win is not guaranteed. Do your research on the game you plan on betting. Have the opponents ever faced each other? What were the previous outcomes? What were the most recent results? What is the weather gonna be that day? How does a specific team play in weather if its gonna be bad? Is the game indoors? ETC.

There are all kinds of things to consider when gambling. It's best to make an educated wager vs just looking at the odds.
It's more worth considering if you do mind off these factors to be mind of rather than making yourself mindful about the odds because there are really some factors which could really affect the outcome on least expected and it's true that even if it's high odds or low odds type of game won't really be assuring about outcome precision.Dont stress yourself on how much you would gonna win by just staring on those numbers but rather stick into those considerations before making step further.

Currently, the luna project is in a big recovery so that they can again provide the best for investors, so in the case that very many are still hesitant to return to participate in the project because the decline that has occurred in the last month has hit them so much that they have suffered heavy losses, so at this time some of them are only monitoring the project because they do not want to fall into the same hole.
Look at on the sharp nosedive into its price.

Im talking about Terra Classic.Investors are done into this project
and considering that they had made out some forked coins but still the support isnt
really just the same.
2065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you Considered a Career in Betting Consultancy? on: June 15, 2022, 10:59:27 PM
Betting consultants are gurus who have cracked the secret code of increasing one's chances of beating the bookies and sportsbooks

If i am nkt mistaken i think they are often refered to as the forecasters or gamble predictionists, they derive a means and create a prediction on matches that may be closely accurate to be precise base on varieties of informations and research carried out, i think it is good enough to understand their major motive is for profit realization, their predictions were not 100% of accuracy but they beat the close mark to that base on their level of thorough research.
As if these fellas could really show off those percentages to the public and would able to hook up some interest then it might be possible but we know that trust issues would really be the main issue on here.
Anyone could claim that they are good but showing solid stats or proving it out isnt something that you could prove out right away.
People would normally come in line if they do see and get recognized but if not then it would be simply be ignored.
Career in relation to this wont be unlikely to be seen or not totally that interested on offering such service if ever they really having that good winning rate.
2066  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can newbie become rich with trading on: June 15, 2022, 09:59:17 PM
Newbies could get rich only if they are in a very high hyped lucky situation. This means that if they are in a big bull run and make a good chunk of investment and get lucky, they could totally get rich. I have met with so many people who invested 10k-15k during the bull run of 2021 and to some veeeery stupid coins, and yet they became very rich. With DeFi also allowing you to get in early and stake, that meant that you may have bought 10-15k worth of tokens, but with staking you held like 20-25k right away in first couple of days because of high stake returns. Then the price went x10 and you had 200-250k suddenly in a week or two. This wasn't rare, it happened quite frequently as well.

This of course is not suggested, its a very risky move and majority of people ended up being in a rug pull instead.
If you do pertain about low cap coins and been suddenly pumped or moon then chances on getting rich wont really be precise unless if you had invested big and then gained 1000x of the said coin then that would surely
be a big hit but not all we do have that kind of chance on which since outcomes and results will really be depending on how someone would be dealing up with price volatility of the coins that you had purchased.
Newbie could potentially make themselves rich but its not recommendable to touch up low caps or not known projects in the market.The odds or chances of losses is high
so dont hurry up yourself on making profits.

Those who don't believe in such things will certainly respond like that. But those who always use spells or beliefs will continue to use them. Using that spell or belief will increase their confidence and their luck level can rise even though in reality, it will not be what they want. So it will be up to each gambler and let them stick with it.
Well. So people do really believe that the spell happen and they use it for their benefits.
But in my religion it is forbidden - we can seek for the help of God but casting the spell is highly unacceptable.
Not literally casting spells but rather those behaviors or actions that you do need to do first before you do play gambling.I dont believe on chants or spells because it doesnt exist in the first place.
Its known that there are really some religion who do really forbids gambling because its never been a good thing for them and lets just respect on what they do believe.
In overall i dont see any relevance for someone who do really do these steps considering that luck cant really be influenced by something.
2068  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and wealth as the major religions in world. on: June 15, 2022, 07:09:42 PM
Social media changes about many things, those who have wealth are very easy to show off what they have, this makes anyone feel like imitating them, without money it seems impossible to be able to live, especially everything in the house must be paid with money, this What makes everyone busy with money and no longer care about the others.

Social media seems to be the basis of success of most people. They flex what they have so they could please everyone and create their own personality. Sometimes, we disregard our faith and religion and focus on reaching success. It's fine to dream and reach the comfortable life that we all want as long as we don't throw the good morals and dignity in us.
Due to our high technology that we do have today then almost everything is circling around in social media and for us that trying our best to have a better life then we are really doing
all sorts of things and i do agree that due to our tough time due to work and business then we do really forget about divine or religion things which is indeed that accurate in todays
time.We do really forget to be thankful on everything that we are getting or achieved which i do say which isnt right.
2069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever thought of doing your thesis on Gambling ? on: June 15, 2022, 05:56:37 PM
I don't know how people manage gambling after such horrible inflation. We are unable to pay our bills and it is hard to make both ends meet. The thesis should have a new point included - inflation and gambling. How to manage gambling during inflation. Because a common man won't be able to gamble.
In theory any amount of money that you gamble should be money that you can afford to lose, which means that even with the high inflation we are experimenting and the collapse we are seeing at all the different markets around the world at the same time if you earn more than enough money each month then you can still fulfill all your needs, while at the same time you will still have some money to spare and you can keep gambling, however this is only possible for those which earn a big enough salary, as there are many people which will have to reduce or even eliminate gambling from their hobbies until they have some money to spare yet again.
Gambling isnt necessary because if people would really be seeking out for some leisure then we do have several activities  which could really make us entertain.Its not necessary for us to gamble but
well there are people who do find out betting with real money is something interesting compared to those which arent thats why they do really end up with this kind of option.
If you do only earn sufficient for your daily needs then its really dumb that you would consider  on playing gambling since you know that you would really be spending some funds.
As speaking with thesis in gambling then this is a wide scope of topic which needs to be defended wisely.
Of course gambling is not essential. I don't think it's right for people who don't have much money to gambling. But for people with money, it's a hobby. Everyone spends money on things they enjoy doing. This is nature's law. That's why we shouldn't look down on gamblers.
Im not looking down on them or to those people who are poor or do only have sufficient income to raise themselves and survive on daily living.It was never been sensible for you to
spend up lots on something which you do know that it could really make your hard earned money vanished into thin air.Yes, its a hobby but on the sense that you should only
spent on the amounts which you can afford to lose and dont go overboard or else you would really be having big problems once you do make yourself get addicted.
For the topic its not bad on making gambling to be your thesis but rest assured this would be a vast topic to have.
2070  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: June 14, 2022, 10:58:14 PM
I am sure that it is worth looking for a very thin level between whether to use bitcoin, and if so, in what volumes. I think it's pretty important.
At Which volume, i don't think that's so important in this situation, since Bitcoin is a decentralized currency and being used and adopted as an alternative currency in El Salvador, the volume at which the country reserve stands is what is important and since 1 Bitcoin= 1 Bitcoin and the 2,301 holding is still intact El Salvador government through the president understand the game quite well and are prepared what this even before the

For sure they had already studied about the probabilities thats why they are already expecting something like this for the market to be on this condition.Its true that 1 btc is always equal to one and no matter what
happen as long they dont sell everything or anything then its not considered to be losses.It might be on negative or deep reds but its not really into that situation where its totally considered to be one.
They could always opt to hold and wait and even the President might be considering on buying even more with these cheaper price since he do indeed know on how crypto game
works and only to those dumb or lacking some ideas will really be just whining and keeps complaining.

2072  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: online course for trading on: June 14, 2022, 09:35:49 PM
Learning is always positive. Maybe if you don't get what you expect there is nothing to lose. Moreover, if any money is spent for learning, it is never counted as loss. How much you can learn by taking online classes depends on you and the instructor. In this case, the more you search, the more you can learn.
not everything we learn is of course absorbed well and can be immediately useful with desire, but I agree with the colleagues above that learning will always have a positive impact.
learning can be through the help of others by taking the classes we want, but it can also be by studying on the internet which may be free and can be adapted to what we need.
but in principle learning is something that is very good and useful and will always be a positive thing in time.
It will take a long process for us to learn everything about trading and every knowledge that we absorb from resources will help us grow. We might not use all of them but they're applicable in some instances.
Yes, the internet has a lot to offer when it comes to learning to trade. Online books and video tutorials are available but you should have the dedication and willingness to learn so you could understand them fully. It will be challenging because trading is a bit confusing in the beginning but it's all worth it.
Worth on the sense that you could really make yourself financially stable or capable if you do end up on having a good grasps into the market and we know that this is something not for everyone
because there are people who do test it out and no matter how hard or long they would be engaging but still end up on losing or not sustainable at all thats why they do completely stop due to that
reason. Trading is hard but its not impossible for you to learn, its not really necessary or much needed to have a mentor because you could eventually make yourself self learn
and the rest of learning would really be in real or actual experience which is something that you cant get on any context or book offline or online.
2073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is it so hard to win at gambling? on: June 14, 2022, 08:57:49 PM
Hello good day to all the members in this forum, Did you know that even if you win at gambling, you lose as well? Don't you think that's how it happened? and that’s the thing that I'd like to tackle about this topic, Because it’s hard to win at gambling, now if you want to know why?

The fact is that the house always has a basic advantage over the players, in addition, there is not a single really successful game strategy in practice. In addition, our craving for excitement and the inability to stop at the right moment is another additional trump card of the house.
As a player then you shouldnt really make yourself able to reach the point on which you do really believe that you could beat up the house which is really a very idea or mindset to have because this would
only just trigger out your greediness and impulsive kind of emotion which would mainly cause on making bad actions or decisions on your gambling activity and on the time
that your mind is stirred up then this is the time you wont really be able to enjoy anymore with gambling and its been replaced with some desperation which we know
that it is really that bad specially dealing with gambling.
2074  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the golden rule of investment? on: June 14, 2022, 08:26:46 PM
The golden rule of investing, the most important one, is that you should invest only if you have extra funds just for that purpose. A ton of people look for gold in them thar hills that they risk it all, put up their houses, all of their savings... No one should buy into that notion, no one should invest if they don't have a surplus of funds, whatever that is for them.
Extra funds should be divided

1. Emergency
2. Savings
3. Investment

You should really be allocating or dividing with these parts and investment allocation is something that you do put
into this area on where at least you had already secure out those other parts which is really should be on the priority.
You cant really just focus or do put all in on a single point.

Never ever invest on something that you cant afford to lose considering that crypto market is unpredictable.
2075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Something Like This Happen To You on: June 13, 2022, 11:58:07 PM
We experienced unexpected events or moments in gambling like this one, you are calling it off a day in a session then you're suddenly on a winning streak thinking that it's your time to get back what you've lost will you go or will you stop and come back the next day.

I'm sometimes tempted to continue but I know you cannot beat the house, so most of the time I just call it a day and just wished that tomorrow or next time it's my lucky day. What about you what's your take.
Yes.

I've experienced it many times already since I started gambling. You will feel the adrenaline rush, and you will think that you will win constantly, and I will only stop whenever I lose my money. That is also the reason why I didn't experience a day when I end up winning in gambling because most of the time I end up losing especially when I'm in a winning streak.

Over time, I overcame it and know how to control my emotions and stop whenever I feel that I need to and will continue to gamble the next day. Gambling is all about emotions and luck as well Cheesy. You can't handle your emotions? You are unlucky? Then you have a high chance to lose your money.

Yes mate!, that's what I am feeling. It is really hard to overcome , I admit it to myself that I always fall for temptation in gambling even now, I always say to other people that they should learn to manage their emotions but if you are in that place it is very hard, self-discipline is very much needed, we can stop ourselves immediately consistency will be the key and one step at a time.

We get easily influenced to such choices. Its based on the situations and needs one decides. I had chosen to play back but yes I have lost often. Thought I would get another chance to win but kept loosing. Literally stopped playing now as I could not concentrate on main stuffs. Yes this is kind of an attraction and we easily tend to get addicted and never get out of it.
If you are really not good on handling out your emotion then most likely you would be ending up on spending those wins back into the casino and losing it again.
Very common scenario for most gamblers on where they do end up on such situation on where they do really eager to spend those winnings back because of the
hope that they might win again but thats not how gambling works.You might be lucky but not all the times that it would really be staying on your side.
2076  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you spread BTC to people within you on: June 13, 2022, 10:59:11 PM

One of the way  to spread bitcoin is to let the people around you to see what bitcoin has done for you first, how reliable is bitcoin  and what you know about bitcoin.  This will convince them and make them to know that they are safe in investing bitcoin.

Y
You
We must be careful with the word "safe" here. I personally think that investing in BTC is safe in the long term, but if someone wants to make profits within a year, it's obviously not safe to invest.

At this point I think it's enough to convince people that Bitcoin is a useful thing that will stay here for many decades, not a financial pyramid like many still think.
You are right how safe it is to invest for longterm,  not like other coins  that dint have have good value  which they can remain in a particular point for a longtime without yielding any value,  but bitcoin is well profitable and safe if hodling it for a longterm.
How you would be explaining it considering nows the time where everything is on deep reds? or simply a bloodbath? It is really that hard to convince someone whenever they do see the price is plummeting.
As long you dont really give out some assurances and explain them about the basics or basic principle of its behavior and utility then it would really be that cool but expect that
it would raises up lots of questions which you should be prepared on answering it all on a well manner or well explanation so that people wouldnt find out to be boring
or something that is dangerous to deal with.
2077  Economy / Gambling / Re: Themed Provably Fair Casinos on: June 13, 2022, 09:59:28 PM
Yes, I really prefer such casinos. The experience is better.
Better on the sense you are hanging out with a certain platform and those UI/UX would really be greatly affecting users experience thats why having some good themed or color scheme sites do really end up on getting
good impressions in the public.Experience is better since design and theme could really give out that emotion boost or feeling which is something that we do prefer rather than on playing on a site
which do have poor graphics and design which it is one of the indicative signs that you are dealing with the right or legit site or platform but of course there are also
other things to consider too.

Well, that was fast, all this occurred while I was asleep. Honestly, I truly believed that the prediction would turn out true, however, I never expected that it'd   go that way so quick. Bitcoin is currently sitting at $24.000 as we speak and Ethereum at $1.200, both just hanging above the 24 hour lowest point. By the looks of it, both are going to crash even further. On the one hand, I don't mind since I'm receiving a higher amount in Bitcoin, but on the other, it's kind of sad to see the market in such a state.



Screenshot from CMC's live chat. I'd opt for option A.
I would go for A too but for sure there are people who are freaking out and choosing that D.   Cheesy We are crashing now but is this the first time? No. If you've been here on this market for years then these things
arent something new and you are already get used to it and do knows on how to utilize these movements for your advantage.
Cant really blame out for someone to have those impulsive reaction specially for noobs but once they do get the right idea and awareness then
they wont easily be that too reacting in times like this.
2079  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Most Expensive Thing Bought with Winnings from the Casino or Sport Bet on: June 13, 2022, 08:09:27 PM
Some years ago, I won a decent amount of money from a sports bet. It was the equivalent of $550 in my local currency. I was thrilled. I decided that I was going to spoil myself a little. It coincided with the time Sony announced the price of the new PlayStation 5. The price was the equivalent of $500 in my local currency. I walked into a mall and bought it. I played it a couple of times. One week later, I traveled. I spent 3 months out of town. Sadly, when I returned from my trip, I discovered that my house had been broken into. The PS5 was stolen together with other valuable items. I was upset

What is the most expensive thing you've bought with your winnings from a casino or sports bet that you've never used or used only a few times or even maybe regretted buying?
When it comes on buying things then i dont really regret on doing so because majority or most of the time on where i do tend to buy something then it would really be on my wishlist
Speaking with gambling profits then i do buy a flagship smartphone and i do still make use of it over a year now and even though this isnt something big but still a considerable
amount which you could really able to buy on what you do like or wish for and i dont risk it out again on playing those amounts into gambling because high likely
those amounts be lost back again into the casino.
2080  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 13, 2022, 06:59:30 PM
Most people do not contemplate that the price can reach a price like that, everything is possible, in fact everything in crypto is possible, if the price falls to that level, the safest and smartest thing to do is is to buy, of course this scenario should be considered, although it is a bit strange because BTC has a large institutional investment and the whales would have a great loss, I clarify, the new whales that entered the market buying at high prices, not the whales that the first thing they do is short and then buy cheap.
All coins, including Bitcoin, are now declining. Bitcoin has come down to $25k.in its behavior, it seems that Bitcoin can go down to $20K. Which will give us a great opportunity to invest in cryptocurrency at the last time in dip. I look forward to that opportunity too. Let's see what actually it happens
Yes, at this time the price of Bitcoin has dropped to $25k and the altcoin market is experiencing the same thing,
such a possibility but that doesn't mean Bitcoin will drop to $8k,
the most important thing is not to panic and follow the market movements all the time
Even we are already too far off but we know that there's always the probability yet we've been seen the price is always been unpredictable and we wont know if we would really be going that low or going into those

early years price point but even myself not really that convinced that we would see these numbers again but hey im still open minded about probabilities yet this had been always
the case or scenario that we do commonly see into the market where price could shoot or drop without even knowing or being too aware.
