Are they short in funds? Or in desparate need but doesn't want to loan to other countries?

Nevertheless, having a single ticket would onyl get you as far as 0.000016% of winning. Near zero value like this won't attract me that much.

Also, how are they so sure that 6M tickets would be sold? (Unless whales hoard tickets, or people there really does want a plane). Winning it also comes with another problem of selling it. Unless he is an experienced one, he might get into trouble for dealing and selling this property.

I don't know if they are really short in funds but I read that the Mexican president hates or doesn't like boarding a private jet or plane. Surprisingly he boards common planes from airlines and not his private plane. As far as I know a family voluntarily get out of the llane since they didn't want to be with the president as it may be dangerous for their children. Not literally the president but because of the people that takes photos with him and that might cause an incident.

Well, I just met my taxation teacher and he seen me reading the OP. He laughed and said, "Do we still have that system now?" In the past he told us that papers are fake, we can't do anything about it but it is something that we know is fake and still continue to use it. He also said that usually, movies portray the best monetary system since they still use gold and silver coins.

I read something in the past about some histories of bitcoin, it is said that in the program there is a part there that is meant for gambling hence it is said to be meant for gambling, poker to be exact as far as I know. We don't know for sure what the creator wants but he said that there will be a lot of transactions in the future or none, it is a simple prediction but all we know is that it is usually for peer to peer transactions, payment and that is not the path it really took.

I saw that news about Tesla and as usual it pumped and the you know what happened next. The people who have invested earlier definitely sold it now when they see it coming.
Now, it dropped 20%.

Might be. It is also said that there are also delays in delivering to China because of the outbreak but I guess that has nothing to do with it. The stock is getting so popular to younger people and a lot of them want a piece of TSLA. That alt might be a good investment so better keep your eye on it.
1525  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Taxation on: February 05, 2020, 10:05:17 PM
I totally agree with that. Governments always want to capitalize on everything that’s possible. And I’m sure that they won’t miss such a chance not to tax cryptocurrency. I don’t like it, but I don’t know what can be done about it.

It is not that mainstream in our country but if it did, I am sure that it will be having a tax in the future. I don't know how would the government do that but for surez they will find a way. There are some exchange here in our country and they might find that as a way or a chance to tax users of crypto currencies here.

The process of anticipating seems so interesting to me. Winning does matter, yeah but most of the time, the pride of predicting something to be able to earn a money, bsating mathematics which is said to be low chance percentage to happen is amazing. Also, some application of mathematics is good to me as the percentage of a team winning and if terms of dices where luck plays a large role, it is really anticipating something you don't anticipate so it is more exciting.

Well, do the math for the Lottery but I would advise you that don't try wasting your time.

Every lottery offers a very slim chance of winning to the bettors, so your math skills here are useless as this game is just purely based on luck.

Well, it is true but the thrill for me is that despite that slim chance, that percentage based on Mathematics' probability I can still win. That proves that even application of Mathematics is everywhere, if there is a chance added, you can prove it wrong. I know this is stupid but for me, the way gambling refracts math is amazing.

it's good to back the spurs when they are an underdog and most likely we will see more games where they are underdog due to their low standing now.
Next game is again in LA against the Lakers, they are -12 and I think again they'll cover this game.

Well, Spurs might be at that standing but man, they are still a good team with the best coach. Even they are 22 and 28, they are still highlighted with their best plays in the game. That is just how they really played well, it is just that they are being outplayed by other good teams.
1529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: February 02, 2020, 12:36:27 AM
I do hope they win to at least ease the pain with Lebron at the helm of another championship ring for the Lakers this season.

The pain would bd eased but the legacy is being passed to him and that is not an easy taks, it is a huge task. Shouldering a legacy, a team that is built by a legend would be so tough but I know Lebron is ready for it especially this is for him, for his family that's lost. It will not just be lebron who will be pressured by this, the whole lakers team will.
1530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Recommended games for lottery players? (Something with a jackpot?) on: February 01, 2020, 11:59:33 PM
Let's say I want to win with that lottery too here in the forum, can you give me the details? I've been joining some giveaways here in the forum but I don't have any luck on it until now, that would count as lottery, right? As suggested by the other, I see Freebitco.in would be the most popular one. If you want to join giveaways, there are a lot of hdre in the forum too.
1531  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not we donate some Bitcoin for corona virus? on: February 01, 2020, 11:30:55 PM
Coronavirus needs to be addressed to its root and that is a group of people manipulating the masses creating viruses every other year or so, in order to profit from their vaccines, viruses that they create and spread themselves. The coronavirus was created by humans to control humans, to profit from them, to cause panic and fear!

There are some videos about people telling why virus creation exists and what are their purposes (profit and control of the masses) bad guys playing with the creation of viruses.  Take a look at Youtube or other sources to discover more about this big business, by an ugly greedy small group of people that do not love humans!

Well, if this is the case, what a dark world we are living in. As far as I know an Australian doctor recreated the virus and now I think that boosted the creation of the vaccine and being treated that is why a lot of people are cured. The start of this year is so dark, it might be a sign or just a consecutive coincidences.
1532  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not we donate some Bitcoin for corona virus? on: February 01, 2020, 11:04:13 PM
I agree that this can be done by China, they also received a lot of help now. Other countries are sending health workers in China like Japan. I know that you want to help but you see, they can take care of it now, patients are being discharged now that means it is just a short time before this outbreak ends. I guess Africa or other poor countries with a lot of poor people would need that, you can just coordinate with a known group for helping you.
1533  Economy / Economics / Re: Which currency will dominate the crypto market? Please vote! on: February 01, 2020, 10:19:00 PM
Almost everyone says that will dominate the market is bitcoin, because they always believe that bitcoin is the best and popular coin of all time.
because most people choose bitcoin because it proves to be profitable compared to other coins and always gives a good return, especially in long-term investments.
Bitcoin shows the most potential out of all the others on the cryptocurrency market, that's why a fair amount of people trust it, and ever since bitcoin reached an all time high last 2017, it had become a mainstream coin and basically became the face of cryptocurrency for quite some time. I still have trust on bitcoin, but who knows? The competition is pretty much close right now, let's just wait and see who comes up on top and stays there.

Well, if we will be talking about crypto currencies, bitcoin will be the first name. The competition is not close, in fact it is not a competition, bitcoin is leading awfully far that is why no crypto currency can defeat it in terms of its value or price. We don't need to wait, we just need to see and compare the prices of them in the past and you will be able to see it.
1534  Economy / Economics / Re: If you could invest your cryptocurrencies in the environment would you? on: February 01, 2020, 03:00:33 PM
We can invest into a project or something that would help the environment not really invest into it but I guess that is what you're really saying. The consumption of energy by the miners are said to so massive that is why a lot of them are choosing alternative sources. If we could help the environment just by investing bitcoin, there will be a lot of us here already investing.
1535  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The real education are not taught at school!! on: February 01, 2020, 02:40:45 PM
Well, for me this depends on the person we are talking about. It is true that there are a lot of people that did not finish or went to college but will it be applied to all of them? There are a lot of people here in our country that is unemployed and is not a graduate. As long as you are passionate to do what you want, you can do that but let's be honest, these days, a lot of companies are prioritizing people who have diplomas.
I’m very passionate about all the hot Japanese girls who exposing themselves over the twitters, and they blatantly asking for likes RT, and even asking you to meet them for a session of getting laid, what is that the teacher didn’t teach me what to do when you see this coming??! Feel lost?

Just imagine people not going to school and all of the teens and students you know doing this, you think that would be amazing? You are amazed by this thots, wow, I can really say that you are not educated at school. Keep on being educated on the internet. And yeah, I don't call them "hot", their thots.
1536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: February 01, 2020, 01:58:30 PM
The lost to the game by 8 points 127-119.
8 points?? Isn't it the number of Kobe when he first played? A coincidence Cheesy Weird happenings right now Cheesy.

I was thinking the same. I guess the NBA doesn't want to forget his legacy and will forever engrave his name in the league.

That's 8 coming from a lose and Kobe is about winning, they should have at least tried everything to win as a tribute for Kobe, a lose doesn't look good IMO.

Just watched the highlights of the game and it is a bit disappointing that Lakers really lost. It can't be controlled but I just hope they win the game as you said, a tribute for Kobe. Opening is good, speech is good but the result, well, it is not that good.
1537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: February 01, 2020, 12:06:34 AM
Chances that they've matured enough not to focused with Giannis alone will help them to have a better chances to win the eastern finals.
With how they are playing right now and how they move the ball it's good to see a well balanced rotations, even Giannis is their main offensive
weapon but the supporting cast are also bringing the challenge and contributes.

We can see the improvement even at the start of the season. And I think this will be the play of the Bucks until Antetekoumpo retires since the co-owner of Bucks wanted him for the rest of his entire career. Well, with that kind of player, who would not want to take care of that.
1538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Win a Presidential plane... on: January 31, 2020, 11:33:54 PM
It's because it's a crazy an insane decision, even though if that plane is just a $130m then their comeback will be about $150m (if only they would be able to sell all of the tickets) that's ridiculous?!

I know right? I know that they are having a short budget for the country but placing their presidential plane for the lottery is insane. I would like to help a country in a way but still, that is a presidential plane. I think they would be reconsidering this and make another way for them to reach the budget they wanted. They are already releasing the design of the ticket and feel worried, I don't know why.
1539  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin cannot be decentralized if the Internet is centralized on: January 31, 2020, 10:51:49 PM
I agree with the author.
Bitcoin is connected to the Internet, nothing can be done about it. Of course, there are paper wallets with bitcoins, but how to check them without the Internet? They may be complete or may be empty.
And if you suddenly do not have an Internet connection, then your bitcoins become practically nothing, they exist, but you cannot spend them.

As far as I know, we have these offline wallets but I don't think that is that good since I don't see or hear anyone talking or using it anymore. Another thing is that we are accessing our bitcoins through our bitcoin wallets, a bitcoin wallet is our key to our bitcoin that is why we can't really do anything about it. Here's the thing though, you can still access your bitcoins even the government ban it in your country, it is not like they can stop you from accessing it.
1540  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So a bitcoin scam has been getting a lot of publicity in the Philippines lately on: January 31, 2020, 09:53:35 PM
right, this is especially for beginners who don't understand correctly and they think making money here is easy. so they became the target of scamer and finally the new investors regretted, because it was not in accordance with their expectations, and finally they spread negative news about crypto

Well, sorry about that. We Filipinos are so trusting that is why we usually fall for these scams. We are known for being hospitable that is why we can really fall for these schemes, not all of us though. We also love to look at the brighter side than the dark side, people here usually don't know a scam unless they knew that their money is gone.
