41  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who should quit, and why? on: December 14, 2023, 06:23:22 AM
Hey house someone need a few clips here, don't know if a post of this exact nature has been discussed though.

In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.

Would it help if  one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.
they can do it together, right? Or if it is really difficult, maybe the wife should focus more on taking care of the house and family. and allow the wife to gamble when it's time for a holiday.
but what becomes difficult is when both of them are addicted. In the life of a family that has children, it will be difficult to control family finances. It would be better to stop both gambling activities and focus on the family economy. Maybe it will be different for families who are already financially strong. the important thing is that they realize the limits of the money they can spend.

All these are literally what passion for gambling could be but yeah, this said gambling festive organiser happens to be a retired gambler.
From your story, those who gamble come from far away places and I'm sure those who take part in gambling are not only aiming to win. It's an activity they enjoy. they hope for victory in what they love. So even if they don't win, they won't be too disappointed because they will come again when the event is held again in the future.
addicted or not, I think they spend what they can. and that won't be a problem. the activity is sure to be fun.

The news I read some time ago was that Donny van de Beek was rumored to be leaving Man Utd in the winter transfer market. But reportedly Donny van de Beek will go to Galatasaray. But I don't know which news is true. But if Girona is indeed interested in Donny van de Beek then I personally agree that Donny van de Beek could move to Girona. Because currently Girona is in very good condition. And it is very likely that this season Girona will get a ticket to the UCL and next season Girona will compete in the Champions League. I think that would be quite good for Donny van de Beek's career. Because it would be quite regrettable if the potential he had was wasted sitting on the bench. It is time for this player to leave and improve his reputation at another club. I hope Girona is really serious. Even though the news I read is Galatasaray who are closer to getting Donny van de Beek. But I have a feeling that Galatasaray will not be good for this player. Because this player still deserves to have a career at a bigger club. So i hope girona will be the next club for this player.
Several clubs were previously rumored to be interested in Donny van de Beek. like Frankfurt and also Girona as you said. but there is also news regarding Donny van de Beek who wants to move to Barcelona. but maybe that's just a rumor.
What is clear is that he was not given a chance at Man Unt, and he should look for a club that can appreciate him and give him a place in the squad. Let's see which club will be more interested and start negotiations first.

Girona should not experience difficulties this weekend against Alaves because in terms of quality these two teams have quite significant differences, especially since Girona is currently at the top of the La Liga standings, which has increased their self-confidence and given them great motivation to maintain it.

The victory against Barcelona last week was enough to prove that Girona is a team that has strong strength this season and this victory is also very important for Girona players to improve their mentality.
The 16 matches that Girona has played are enough to prove the quality and strong mentality of the players. and they were in excellent form when they beat Barcelona.
Girona is a strong team beyond anyone's predictions. they are able to compete with Madrid and Barcelona. this is an attraction for La Liga fans around the world. This proves that La Liga does not only belong to elite teams and regular champions like Madrid.
I just hope they can appear consistent and maintain the quality of their game
45  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: December 11, 2023, 05:35:58 AM
Many times the gamblers create in the account without reading the gambling rules and regulations. In this case, the user has to face a lot of trouble later, especially when withdrawing dollars. They often complain of scamming dollars at casino sites. This is mainly due to the user's own mistake. Basically the user opened the account without reading the terms and conditions where it was written that KYC is not required while creating the account but KYC must be done while withdrawing dollars. It is very problematic for the citizens of those countries where gambling and casinos are completely illegal by the government because citizens of those countries face official trouble if they submit valid documents to gambling sites. So those who are new must read the terms and conditions before creating an account in casino and gambling sites and then create an account.
Even if you read the ToS attentively and several times it can`t help you to avoid such a problem. The only way is situation when casino allows the gamblers to start KYC themselves. In such situation the gambler can KYC and don`t care about withdraw his money.
And the casino not always KYC gambler when he withdraw money - in several casinos i can withdraw money several times before the casino decide to KYC me. And few times the casino decided to KYC me without any withdrawal.
Yes, it all depends on the policies of the given casino. Some of them provide minimum withdrawals that are allowed without KYC. that's in normal cases. but in cases that need to be investigated, the casino asks for KYC first even without withdrawing a certain amount. such as cases of suspiciously large deposits. or the use of several accounts that are suspected of being planned to harm the casino.
However, for users, it is indeed unpleasant when we have to wait for a long verification process when we want to make a withdrawal from the casino. but nevertheless, it is a procedure.

47  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 01, 2023, 06:07:26 PM
Leverkusen is playing very well, but it is too early to talk about championship chances. Bayern Munich generally dominates the league alone towards the end of the league in the long run because other teams give away the leadership with surprise defeats. In previous years, Hoffenheim had done this, Union Berlin had done this. I hope a similar scenario does not happen for Leverkusen and they will be successful until the end of the league.

many Bundesliga fans actually want that to happen. are they starting to hate Munich?
I know what they want is better competition. stiffer competition will have fans cheering. Even though in the end it was Munich who won the season, but when you look at the competition it was better. they will applaud the progress shown by other teams as they attempt to win the title from the very strong dominance of Munich.

In fact, Girona is making waves this year. I cant help but become excited for their match against Real Madrid after seeing their incredible six-game winning streak. Nonetheless, I have my doubts. Im nervous because Castellanos wasnt on the field, and he scored four goals the last time we played Madrid. His departure to Lazio Rom has created a hole. Dovbyk may try to break through Madrid's air ball defense, but Girona may be shaky without Castellanos' experience. Even though the game will get off to a blazing start, without Castellanos the dynamics shift dramatically, and Real Madrid's experience could be decisive.
Gerona's performance may have improved but Madrid will still be the favorites in this match. Even if Gerona managed to draw with Madrid, it would be a good achievement for them considering the quality of players they both have. I think Madrid will still be more favored.
Madrid can take advantage of this match moment to overtake Barcelona at the top of the standings. It's still early days and we'll probably see competition in La Liga getting tougher. and of course, changes in the standings will look normal when the points scored by each team are very close.
49  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 29, 2023, 03:19:04 PM
Weighing the strength of various teams present in this season's Champions League competition, Basically the major contenders or big-name teams, and from the angle of Machester City being the current defending Champion, it will be interesting to see them beat Real Madrid's back-to-back Champions League trophy record that no team has broken and that will be another level of achievement for not only for the team but also for the head coach Pep Guardiola because this is an achievement that has only be done by one man "Zidane" and one club, and I guess it should be the reason why Guardiola a bit boosted the strength of the team during the last window transfer.
It is true that Pep Guardiola is trying to match the record achieved by Zidane with Real Madrid in the 2016-2018 period. Man City movements in the transfer market last summer were of course aimed at retaining the EPL and UCL trophies, with the departure of several important players from the club, and the addition of new players is expected to provide the same strength as last season. However, I am a little hesitant to say that Pep can win the UCL this season, even though I admit that his squad has all the attributes to win it again this season.

I think Pep and Man City need a lot of luck to be able to match the record achieved by Zidane, although it is not impossible. We know that the UCL is full of surprises, it could be that a club that is not the favorite can advance to the final this season and win it. I remember Chelsea journey when they won their first UCL trophy, how Barcelona and Bayern Munchen were defeated dramatically by interim coach Roberto Di Matteo.
Yes, we could be surprised by some things that are truly beyond our expectations. I agree with you that Pep and Man City might have difficulties this season. they may prepare with their team, but they're not the only ones doing it. Most of the teams competing in the Champions League will still make preparations. either from purchasing players or retaining players who are the key to the game.
this season may no longer belong to Man City, or if they do get it again, they will certainly have to try very hard. This season will be more competitive with very strong competitors.
50  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: September 26, 2023, 03:18:47 PM
So here the most important thing is that there is no problem if gambling is carried out among women if they can control their thoughts, are disciplined and responsible when carrying out these activities and can bear all the risks they will face from their gambling activities.[/left]
I think anyone who plays gambling must have taken all the risks when they started entering the casino. No matter male or female, when they create an account at a casino and start gambling, they must be prepared for failure.
Regarding men or women who spend more money at the casino, I think it's all the same. When you have enjoyed the game, no one can actually control or force you to stop before you feel satisfaction.
51  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Flip or Trade? What’s The Bigger Gamble? on: September 25, 2023, 04:51:12 PM
Lost in the whirlwind world of day trading? It often feels like a maze with big folks and their flashy tools, leaving us hoping for a stroke of luck. Imagine ditching the tricky charts for a simple, real coin flip, person vs person, with a fair 50/50 chance. No gimmicks, no house edge, just a clear, honest game.

What’s your take? Does day trading seem more of a gamble compared to a straight-up coin flip

discussions related to gambling and trading have continued for some time. Many have said the two are different. if we might still think of them as something the same, maybe we don't really understand them both well.
betting as you say like a coin flip, is clearly just a game that relies on luck. but in trading, both have risks, but we can increase our chances of winning by minimizing these risks. if you say the bet is 50:50. but in trading, when you have better skills, you can make your chances of winning bigger.

53  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: September 10, 2023, 12:00:07 AM
When i was newbie, i used to place a lots of bets for money without planning math about what will happen if i lose! Sometime i rollover more than my fix amount and i didn't stop till my dollar available or till it fly so higher. And i lost most of the time . Although that didn't effect in my life cause my main income source was freelancing. But when i realized, i stop rollover randomly. Now i mainly use gambling as fan, i don't stake on those games which are very uncertain and drain money so quickly. Although money is matter of course but mainly its for fun now.
a slightly bad experience for yourself when you do not have any limits in gambling and fortunately you have realized this and changed your bad habits for the better, such as betting on any type of bet and planning budget and limiting the budget to betting every day or once a week and If you are approaching your spending limit, you have to quit betting even though you have a lot of money, but this method is better than being compulsive gambler without good control.

Well, anyone who starts gambling can face such losses because a new gambler is unaware of the risks that are involved in gambling. They place bets by being trapped by their emotions of greed that they will make a lot of money by placing so many bets and the result is always the loss of money. A proper gambler plans his/her bets and whenever they are sure that their bets are going to be positive then they place their bets and if some days their bets go wrong then they stop further betting for the day. We all know that in gambling luck is the most important factor to determine one's winning potential because if someone has a weak luck then that gambler might face many losses while a gambler with good luck mostly win the bets. We should also be careful about out budget because if someone's budget is low then that person should place small value bets instead of high value ones.
unfortunately many gamblers ignore this most important understanding like luck is always a very important thing in gambling because basically gambling is just for fun and if you get a big win its just like luck and often gamblers ignore something very important because they are defeated by their own emotions and failed to control himself after his emotions took over his mind. so its good if we always have a plan about how much budget to bet and what amount of loss is considered unlucky and after that, quit for a moment to bet or plan what the maximum winning limit is so that we do not have greedy thoughts. in this scenario it not mean having a target winning limit but just planning a winning limit that when we do not reach that limit there is no need to chase it and if we have reached the winning limit it would be better to consistently quit gambling and enjoy the win.
If we can think carefully and have a clear plan when we want to gamble, that's good. Unfortunately, not many people can control their emotions and themselves when they engage in gambling activities and it is not easy to set or plan losing limits. This depends on a person's character and attitude and also their level of education and many other factors.
In my opinion, most gamblers or people who gamble for the first time want to try their luck, so from the start they don't get used to making careful plans to limit themselves and their losses. Therefore, most gamblers are often not used to careful planning for their gambling activities.
54  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Give Him a loan Or Partner With Him on: September 08, 2023, 03:32:36 PM
What's your best course of action in this scenario?
If I were in that condition then I would not lend my money to him to gamble or bet, even though he has good luck and knowledge in betting or even gambling games. I have several times had the experience of lending the money that I have to be used by some friends to gamble or bet on sports betting, but in the end it always only damages the friendship between me and some of my friends.
I don't know if I'm the only one who always ends up bad when lending friends to bet or gamble or does everyone feel that way too?.
I think it is better to lend them to open a small business or a business than to lend them to gamble because there is a high probability that they will not return the loan if it is used for gambling or betting.
55  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jakarta is in a pollution emergency, Is it caused by crypto mining? on: September 08, 2023, 12:52:16 PM
Indonesia, especially Jakarta is in a pollution emergency, Many say that this is caused by steam power plants where the fuel is coal. And, sadly I heard also on my social media local that this pollution is also caused by crypto-mining, I debated and rejected it opinion because crypto-mining in Indonesia is not much like other countries where their air is still clean today.

So what do you though, is crypto mining become a big problem of pollution?
I will never believe in some local media that sometimes they only seek attention and increase their existence by presenting some news that is only based on the "assumptions" of some people who are not even experts and without detailed, concrete and accountable evidentiary data.
I don't think crypto mining is the main problem that causes air pollution in Jakarta, from the media you've read they most likely don't provide accurate and complete data, right?. If you are someone who lives in Jakarta, surely you will understand that Jakarta is too crowded and there are too many private vehicles and many industries that contribute to air pollution. Carbon emissions from private vehicles and transportation, several large industries and the burning of coal as a source of electricity generation are the causes that contribute most to air pollution there.
56  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is actually a Bitcoin investor on: September 07, 2023, 01:20:41 AM
You have bitcoin? Then you're a bitcoin investor. You don't have it, then you're not a bitcoin investor. That's simple as that, as long as you have it on your wallet and you have spent money for buying then you are in the category of being a bitcoin investor. There's also this instance that you're still a bitcoin investor but you haven't spent any penny on it. How? When someone gives it to you and you hold now full custody on it then that's still considered that you're a bitcoin investor if you have kept it and have no plans yet of selling it. There's no need to make things very confusing so if it's no longer in your posession and you sent your bitcoin as a payment, you don't have it anymore. Therefore, you're no longer an investor of it but you used to be.
You're right. As someone who is not an expert, researcher or economic observer or can be called a layman, we do not need to complicate our view of who Bitcoin investors actually are.
Yes, I also think so that there is no need to make it difficult for us to know specifically who a Bitcoin investor is, because in my opinion in simple terms anyone who buys and owns Bitcoin can be considered a Bitcoin investor, despite each of us having different goals and different activities in utilizing the Bitcoin that we have.
57  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: September 07, 2023, 12:13:22 AM
People like those (me) who don't gamble for fun have this question to answer: how will you feel when you don't have money to stake a game that you predicted and better winning games you predicted played the way you predicted it and when you checked the winning was something that could have changed your life for ever if you didn't gambled again after such winning?
Sometimes it is very annoying that when there is a very good chance and good opportunity like that we don't have enough money to bet. Even though the win is very big and will change our fate in the future, if at that time we really don't have money to bet then I won't force myself and take the risk of borrowing because this is gambling and there is still a bigger chance of losing even though we are good at predicting the bets.
Although of course we will definitely regret it very much, but I think there is no need to dwell on regrets, it is completely pointless and could damage our mental health. The most important thing is that we can still breathe, think and have income, so we will try it on another occasion.
58  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: September 06, 2023, 11:19:50 PM
It's true that sometimes we find underage children playing slots. It's easy to do this because online gambling platforms do not impose conditions that are quite strict in the first registration session, making it easier for minors to provide documents that are completely inaccurate when creating an account that they do. Because they only need to give tick one if they are 18 years old.

Maybe this should not be blamed on a gambling platform because minors are still under the supervision of their parents. So parents are the ones to blame for their negligence in educating their children. In today's modern era the growth rate of gambling is increasing in some countries, another thing is because they are heavily influenced by the many gambling sites they find on social media platforms.
As parents, we really have to supervise our children who are still "underage" but sometimes there are some difficulties that every parent faces, namely outside influences or the environment that cannot be controlled by parents.
Yes, you are right, in this all-modern and all-digital era access to online gambling is increasingly easy for anyone to access even childs underage. As parents, we should be able to keep abreast of existing developments so that we can control the limitations that our children do before they reach a mature age.
For this reason, many parenting or parental control applications have been created to monitor and limit negative activities on each of our children's gadgets or smartphones, so it's best that every parent should be able to take advantage of these parenting control applications.
59  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin obsession! on: September 05, 2023, 11:58:04 PM
Bitcoin can change lives so yes I am willing to get obsessed with Bitcoin adoption, I know what I can do and I know when I am going over my boundary, too much of everything is bad but Bitcoin adoption is something I am willing to deep dive into and keep accumulating.

Is constant accumulation an obsession?
In my opinion, if we still know the limits we can apply according to our financial conditions to accumulate Bitcoin, it does not constitute an obsession with Bitcoin.
I think it's more normal, everyone must do as you say. Because obsession, as I understand it has a more negative meaning and is a mental disorder that occurs in someone which involves something they really like and has a negative impact on them.
In my opinion, someone who experiences an obsession with Bitcoin usually goes too far and doesn't understand their limits in their efforts to collect Bitcoin and that will result in changes in behavior and cause negative emotional disturbances in them.
60  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: September 05, 2023, 11:15:15 PM
I want to know how you break away from the addiction, you can mention the actions taken or what kind of steps? And how long do you need time to break away from the addiction that has been experienced?
Someone who is already heavily addicted to gambling sometimes they themselves are not aware that they are already among those who experience severe gambling addiction disorder. All they feel is a very strong urge or desire to gamble without thinking about the negative effects.
Most of the people who are around the addict are aware and feel the bad effects that someone has experienced gambling addiction.
If someone has experienced a severe gambling addiction, there are two possibilities that will happen to him.
The first is that he has no family or people who still care about him and he is completely broke, has debts piled up everywhere and has nothing left of his wealth.
The second is that someone has family or people around him who still care about him and do various ways ranging from therapy and restrictions to keep him away from his gambling habit.
In essence, someone who is addicted to heavy gambling cannot easily treat himself but must have family or close people who support him and in my opinion must keep the person away from the place where he is gambling and provide a new, more positive environment and activity.
