Sino ba ang mag iinvest sa ganitong klaseng project ?  di ko ma gets anong target investors nila dito, kung ganito talaga ang plano nila eh sana Ginawa nila ito nung panahong tayo pa ang nananalo sa Miss U, halos magkasunod nating napanalunan ang title from Pia to Catriona so yon sana ang magandang timing.
anyway not my type of investing and not my interest of engaging .

This is beyond our control already pero sana hind pa ito final and mag appeal is Binance since they are already working for their permits if I'm not mistaken, not sure lang kung natuloy ba ito or still on process. Sa ngayon we should take precaution and follow the instruction of SEC.

Super laking kawalan sa atin nito pero hopefully the local exchanges will step up and provide a more quality service para sa mga pinoy, good thing here is that hinde naman totally ban is Crypto dito sa pinas.

that's why if you nail it down to the absolute most important points, gambling is a thing for the rich because they can afford to lose money without destroying any of their needs or desires (unless they go crazy and gamble fortunes).

But the average guy would usually have almost always something that could be deemed more important than the temporary pleasure gained from gambling. I am still not against it, but it is the same with a drug that someone uses. Lots of things speak against doing it, but sometimes it is what somebody feels like doing the most in a specific moment.

I don't know if you've encountered this joke before, I often see it in my feeds coming from Gambling groups where I am a member

Guy 1: Hey, I have a friend who gambles a lot, and he just bought a new bike.

Guy 2: Wow! Your friend must have been lucky in gambling.

Guy 1: No! He used to drive a car but because of gambling, he sold it, and now he just bought a new bike to get to work.

Guy 2: 

The first time I read it I laughed a lot but if you dig deep or think about it you will realize that it reflects many gamblers who are losing a lot and they have to sell things that are important to them and find an alternative.

How about you do you have a gambling joke of your own or you've encountered that reflects the gambling experience of many, come share it here

I think those who teach their children well will not be affected by this.
Usually a businessman will teach his children not to waste money, but to take advantage of existing facilities instead of spending money blindly, although not all teach them like that. Rich people actually always inherit their wealth to the next generation.

I think for people who both want to start a business and work have something in common if they have never done it at all, let's take the example of those looking for work if they fail in their first job or don't pass the selection, they can still look for another job.
Meanwhile, if people who build businesses fail in their first attempt, not everyone can build the next business, especially those with minimal money, so from my point of view, people who create businesses will have a tougher struggle at the start.

Although Black Friday is commonly associated with sellers offering huge discounts to customers, is this really true?

Black Friday is an excellent time to buy only what you need, not what you want. The event's psychology is to give consumers greater purchasing power and encourage unnecessary spending.

For example, a lot of individuals or bitcoin holders may sell significant amounts of their cryptocurrency during this time because they wish to purchase items that will affect their investments. Black Friday deals can affect your plan to hold bitcoins, and as an investor, you have to be careful and be disciplined enough to control yourself.

Have you purchased any item during this time?, was it a need or a want?
Did you have to use some or a significant amount of your bitcoins?

I don’t think this is the right mindset for a gambler because to me everyone is lucky but maybe the days aren’t just the same and irrespective of your occupation, either gambling or not, what truly matters is that we have a tactics we are following and as a gambler, having our own strategy and also knowing when to stop is key and I also understand that gambling in most cases is luck base but I don’t agree that gambling is only for the rich and also I want to point out that gambling is risky and betting on odds isn’t even a safe way to stay profitable because on several occasions we’ve seen small odds losing games to bigger odds.

I can not believe that there will be someone who can successfully be successful through gambling, even if there is a person I think that person knows weaknesses and has a very good tricks in playing cards or skills -based games, or can also have the latest access to information about the match Dramatic balls or manipulated so that they can provide large benefits and have a small level of defeat. But still for me personally it is very difficult to believe it.

Even though we have a trick in playing slots to always get victory, it will be detected and considered a violation by the provider, and that day is last victory because the trick does not function and return to before, it will be difficult to get a victory back. I think there is no calculation of the probability of profits in playing slots, because house always have a way for a gambler who is far less than the one he won, let alone gamblers who have impulsive and compulsive nature.

If truly she has a source of income, advise her to stick to it or look for another source of income that is not gambling because there is no guarantee with gambling to consistent profit as we all know.

I'm thinking probably you are telling her the potential of gambling in profit or you are profiting in gambling yourself. So maybe she is seeing something in you in terms of your finance and your standard of living which you have told her is from gambling and so she wants to start gambling too.

Some people know how to hype themselves to a level that others want to follow and they can redirect your focus to other aspects as the source of income whereas it is another source of income. So maybe you have made her believe you are profiting in gambling, so teach her how you have been profiting in your gambling 

While it's true that some people find entertainment and a temporary escape through gambling, it's important to acknowledge the potential risks associated with this activity. Gambling can indeed lead to addiction, financial strain, and increased stress, particularly for those with limited income who may be more affected by the negative consequences of significant losses. While some people may experience short-term relief from loneliness or stress through gambling, the long-term effects can be detrimental.

In short, parang nakikiride lang sa trend issue nag pinas sa ginawa ng SEC sa Binance, ika nga nila ay parang credit grabbing na hindi, alam mo yung ibig kung sabihin. Pero kung totoo man yung sinasabi nilang yan ay mayayari ang mga influencers na nagpopromote ng Binance na gumawa ng account sa kanilang mga mobile device.

Yun yung parang nakikita ko sa bagay na yan na sinasabi ng SEC Philippines, pero duda parin ako dyan sa sytle ng gobyerno natin, dahil ang pagkaalam ko ay bukas naman talaga ang bansa natin  sa Blockchain technology eh nangunguna ang Binance exchange sa merkado kaya malabong manyari yung iniisip ng iba dito sa totoo lang.

I just saw this betslip shared by someone on social media and he was bragging that he turn his builder bet to Php 1 million pesos or equivalent to over $18k.

The bet is only Php 1k or ($18)... see the bet slip below. (check the outcome to see the winning)....

So you see, those who are preaching that you can't win in gambling, this is for you!

You don't win if you don't try, this gambler for sure kept trying on playing "bet builder", probably even on "parlay", and finally one day he made himself a millionaire. This is a significant success already as not everyone can win a huge amount in gambling, considering the bet was only less than $20.

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

I was surfing on the Instagram and found this:

I understand that this is fake and was made for a joke. But some people dont know what jokes should be ended or are inappropriate... However, since some casinos have "special" section in sports betting (why this is in sports betting anyway?), and allow to place bets on election outcome, or on Oscar winner, or on music event like Eurovision, I would not be much surprised that in 5 or 10 years we would really have such absurd betting options. And most important what scares me, that casinos will hide behind "there is a demand on such betting" and there really be people who will find this demanding.

The more parents keep their gambling habit a secret the more  we hear stories like I started playing bet at an early age, so in conclusion some children who are into gambling today learnt it online, we can't protect and guard our kids forever and the use of cell phones are common now, every little child wants to own a cell phone, people nowadays no longer hide their gambling habit online they love showcasing their betting skill and any child that lacks proper home training can adopt the habit to gamble.
I don't know if this is common but anytime am with my phone and I enter any social app I will always see random videos  adverting betting platform, one thing with betting platform they have the best and smart move to advertise their platform even in skit videos I see comedians advertising betting platform.
So keeping our gambling life a secret from our kids that's not enough, but training them and setting a right example for them will be better, educating them about the consequence of playing bet just like what the op did.

"Like a habit ". But I think gambling can also be a habit. It only depends on the person though if their gambling habit is bad or good. If it is bad, obviously we should quit on it and find something else better. Most of us still has a self-control and awareness. It's just that it works hard on some other things. Anyways, it was great to know that you have overcome your gambling problem. And thanks for dropping a good tip there.

I agree that stopping it is completely hard and painful. This is why I kept on re-enabling my browser and installing my apps again, but this time I am trying hard to control myself. I make sure to allocate more time and money now on more important things.

You have to prove that because there's no data that you can prove this is correct, not because you are rich you are guaranteed to win even if you have a huge bankroll in the casino are a game of chance or luck and it will not pick or choose gambler to win, the casino house edge has no specific classification of people you'll win if you're lucky regardless if you're poor or lose.


I am not rich but I do win from time to time and I have a poor friend who I consider so lucky because he won many times in horse racing so now he is not poor nor rich but he is proof that rich or poor your chances are all the same, no category in life has a monopoly when it comes to gambling.

Well, this is another serious matter, and I had to discourage her.

It's about an old female friend who posted me just about two days ago; her request was for me to teach her how to gamble at any easy casino that she will understand so quickly and make money. Her motive for making this kind of request is because she wants a second source that she can use to earn extra income. I explained what gambling truly is, and I discouraged her from learning how to gamble.

Now, there's a simple question that I want to ask: do you guys think I should introduce her to gambling? If yes, what's the easiest game she can stake in and also enjoy while gambling?

Indeed, at least people who invest must have loose funds so that these funds can settle for years, until they can finally be withdrawn when they have doubled in the future. Most people want to get instant results and that is clearly not possible in the current situation. on the other hand, we must have knowledge about what we are investing in, remembering that without knowledge we will definitely get lost, luck will not come again and again.

I don’t know if you’ve done this already, but this is one of the things everybody needs to do for their kids. Just in the name of playing games, you can teach them a lot about business, money management, luck/the unexpected events that happen in life, investments, etc. This is super important and will definitely help the kids learn to do certain things around finance. So just start the game with them, tell them the rules, etc. as you play, one day, you’ll see how the game can positively influence their thinking, approach, and even decision.
