Awareness will lead them to be more curious from what they are witnessing from the activities of their parents, if you care about them and you don't like them to learn and understand how gambling works, better to keep your gambling activities away from the sight of your kids.
Though there are different points of views and different approaches in terms of how parents engage and the way they wanted to let their kids know how gambling may affects them.
This means that parent's concern to keep them from seeing what their parents are doing is very important so that their children do not ask or even learn how gambling works. And apart from that, parents also need to educate their children well and correctly so that their children don't do things that can cause them to get into trouble. The approach taken by parents can vary from one child to another because the character of each child will definitely be different too. Maybe parents can show their children why gambling can affect their lives later when their children grow up. With guidance and supervision from their parents, children can prevent themselves from taking the wrong path so that they won't get into trouble when they grow up. Even if a child saw their parents doing gambling, It's up to the parents how they will explain it to their child, teach them and explain it to them that gambling is not suitable for kids and much better if parents will discuss the disadvantages of doing, in that way, the curiosity if a child will lessen. I agree with you, with the guidance and support of the parent, It will prevent their kids to do the things they see what their parents doing. |

~ The first thing one should pay attention to is that it should be made clear that a plan is necessary such as knowing how much money one is willing to lose due to gambling, if one loses, assume that one lost and not deposit more, because that is the beginning of the game. problems, and finally, if in a gaming session you win or have a somewhat significant profit, it is better to withdraw that money and not risk it all, because it is very likely to lose it, that or more, sometimes it is better to take those safety measures. 'precaution, prevention.
But if the won money isn't that big we can leave it on the site and just play out of it in the future. I personally like to have some balance on a reputable gambling platform to not bother with depositing and withdrawing all the time, especially in times like this when transaction fee is high. And a win like that won't start reckless gambling if you will be playing like always, for fun. Everyone I think has their respective ways of funding their accounts on different gambling platforms but for me, I only leave very little amount of money in any gambling site I'm using no matter how reputable the site can be because there's a possibility of the site being hacked by external hackers which might lead to loss of money. I'll rather prefer the stress of depositing and withdrawing each time I want use a particular gambling site than to leave any fund of above $2 in it I do the same, I'm not confident to save or to keep large amount of money in any gambling site because I always think that even if the site is a reputable site, there's always a possibility of losing a money. What I always do is just like what you did, funding small amount only to control my spending in gambling while the other funds has been save in a secured wallet. |

These words are just jokes or motivational words, just like the sentence "work as if you will live forever".
but I am the type of person who will not buy an item if the price is not appropriate or unreasonable. for example, if eating for $10 can make you full then why should you spend $100. It's not uncommon for me to see someone buy a bag for $10k, even though for $100 he could also get a bag with the same function. but I realize that everyone's mindset is different, as long as he gets money in the right way it doesn't matter to me.
I think there's nothing wrong in spending something that you deserve, as long as you have the means of buying it. Just a little token of appreciation for yourself but it is case to case basis, If you have no extra fund for leisures and wants, then prioritze all the needs only. it is always better to have something to saved than spending it to nonsense things. |

Yes, multiple ex-streamers have already confirmed that everything was staged and fake, orchestrated by the casino. You wouldn't believe how many people don't realize what's going on behind those paid streams. The whole thing is sponsored by the casino, who funds the account and makes those insane winning streaks possible. Those aren't really just dumb luck. Its like they're playing a different game with special rules. I think it's worth pointing out, but it doesn't seem like everyone has caught onto this other side of things yet.
you will notice that from the very beginning, Their winnings is too good to be true because once you're the one who try, you always don't win. They do that because of contract that they've signed to a gambling agency, The accounts that they have used is already set up for winnings only. In that way, all of their streaming videos shows that majority is all about winning. There are times that some vloggers and streamers used their personal account and they show that they get a big prize once they win the game but the truth is, they got those prizes not because of winning, but because of referrals. |

Gambling is dependent on luck, but we can be on the profiting side if we know when to stop and take a break. Most of us don't follow it, just the wins keep us high and we go for increased bet value. The same ends our wager at the shortest. To be on the safer side better choice is to spend on sports betting than casino games.
Majority says that gambling is depends on luck but some professional gamblers believes that it also comes with self strategy in playing, It requires a main strategy which consists of the decisions of how much to bet on the various games and when to quit. I agree that most of us doesn't follow the basic steps in a gambling because we are carried away on our winnings and and I admit that I sometimes become like that too. |

If you're hiding money from the government and mostly from your wife, this is what the other gamblers do.
I've done with it before knowing Bitcoin, but until I know how to hide it using a bitcoin wallet, I won't do it again. Because when I think about it now, hide our money on gambling site online is very risky from hacker or the owner site online. but it also depends on how much money you hide it, If only $100 or $200 that is not a problem. Maybe if we are bored, and I want to clear our mind, hide on gambling site is good, While saving dan hding it maybe we can also make it multiple from $200 to $400. There is nothing possible as far as you trust it. hiding or saving money in any gambling site is okay depends on the amount but not recommended, like what you've said, It's very risky and there are some possibilities that your money will lose in case the gambling site has a problem and tends to close.It's okay if you keep the allocated fund for your gambling on a gambling site but not that much amount, Just save the majority of you money in reliable crypto wallet. |

~snip~
yep, you managed to understand what I said and all this is just about how the family tries and how the gambler tries to recover from his addiction and if he has a strong desire he will continue to respect whatever his family suggests and I remember a closer example of a friend I was addicted to drugs and in prison when he was released from prison he realized his bad habit of using drugs and finally he had a commitment to recover and told his family to help cure his addiction and asked his family for help if he did the wrong thing and had to be reminded. In the scenario that I am telling you, this could be an example for gambling addicts. If they already have the awareness to stop their addiction, it would be better to ask for help from the family, tell me honestly and I am quite sure that no matter how bad it is, the family will be happy to provide help. Your friend is a good example that other drug addicts should emulate so that they realize their mistakes, are willing to change for the better, and have a strong desire to cure themselves of drug addiction. He is lucky that his family really supports him in curing his drug addiction. If there is a person who is addicted to gambling and has a family who continues to give him encouragement and support to heal himself, that person will see that there is a family who has not abandoned him and continues to help him to cure his gambling addiction. If more gambling addicts realize their mistakes and want to stop their addiction, more gambling addicts will be able to recover from their gambling addiction. It will definitely reduce the number of gambling addictions that exist in one place, and it will definitely be an example for other cities in dealing with gambling addiction. There's a rehabilitation center for those addicted to every thing especially drugs and gambling related addiction, It is helpful to a person who don't have a family to take care of them and You're right! If a person is willing to get better, He will put his best to avoid every thing that may affects him to become obsess in a thing. It's easy to be said but we can't say that in order to become responsible gambler, people should learn to have a self control but in reality, once you're in the situation, You can't control it. |

When your league is in break, I think it is also a time for a fans and gamblers out there to have a break too. I don't think if it's fine to some but for me, If my league is in break, then I will let myself to have a financial break in betting /gambling and will focus myself to other important things. It depends to a person as well, Others may want to try other leagues but for me, No.

Personally, I don't have any connections with guys who are addicted to gambling but I have people come over from other addictions for example alcoholic for rehab centres are the most effective compared to any other methods.
Before everything voicing out is the first thing they should do because we only know what we are going through and in this busy world everyone is focusing on their own life and definitely they will try to help when you seek them.
I have opposite experience of what you've said, I grew up having a family members being addicted in any type of gambling, Being in a lower class family, it's difficult to give an advice to seek professional help due to shortage of money and that's the main reason why their gambling addiction developed, in the hope that they will win and get money. Knowing them, it's hard to speak and give an advice because in the end they will take what I have to say badly. |

Didn’t have the experience to be so close like this on winning the jackpot, lottery seems not in favor to me but I do have a small experience in bingo which is not that big and its just a local bingo game so I don’t consider it. Hitting the jackpot in Gambling is like one in a million, it’s hard to tell and hard to achieve so once you are able to hit the jackpot, you have to celebrate it because you’re lucky enough to win it.
When it comes to winning, I think I'm not fortunate in terms of playing gambling because I haven't experience winning just like in simple betting games like color game and card games but I've experience the "so close in winning" everytime I play so I guess the favor is not for me and that's okay because I'm doing it for fun only and I know there's someone out there who really needs the prize than me. |

Do you ever feel like that being after saving or investing for future you forget to live in the present? You don't buy the things you want to or don't go after experiences you want because you'd rather save/invest for future instead.
I'm at this age wherein I always prioritize my savings and investments rather than buying stuffs that I really want because I know how important investment nowadays but sometimes I just treat myself with the foods that I want and at least once a year out of town vacation to ease the burn out in work but still I know my priorities that's why I always do a wise budgeting and maintaining my spending habits. I highly to invest as early as you can so that in the future, you will get the financial stability that everybody wants. |

It is the right of the gambler to be able to refuse all kinds of publicity about him and his winnings, because it is privacy and people must respect it. Unless the platform has a ToS which explains that the player must comply with all forms of publication carried out by the platform and the player has agreed to this, then he has no reason to refuse that the platform will publish his winnings and his identity to the public.
Yup, and to keep their privacy and personal space, It's better not to publish the winners real identity and image if the public presentation shows Images of the winner because we didn't know what will the possibilities that may happen, what if someone might plan to do bad things because they know the identity of the winner like robbery and kidnapping since we're living in digit era where every information is very accessible in the internet. Here in our country, If a person hit the mega jackpot in lottery, the sweepstake officers will post in social media websites the picture of the winner with a cheque in their hand indicating the total winning prize but the face is blurred for the betterment of the winner. |

On point ka kabayan, nung time ng pandemya wala ka talagang magagawa kundi isakripisyo kung anoman ang meron ka, salamat na nga lang medyo nakakagalaw na tayo ulit at kahit papano makakapag simula ulit, pwede ng makapag hanapbuhay ng maayos at makapag ipon para sa investment, ung tungkol sa kalusugan tama ka din dyan maliban sa pera dapat meron ka din panahon sa kalusugan pati maintenance na makakatulong sa pagpapalakas nito.
Mahirap noong panahon ng pandemic at limited lang ang kilos natin kaya sa mga hanapbuhay, kanya kanyang diskarte at marami na din napasabak sa crypto at mas maraming lumabas ang tunay na talent sa pagnenegosyo. Kaya nga sa ngayon, mas okay na yung ganitong pamumuhay natin dahil balik na tayo sa normal at hindi na natin iniinda yung mga nakaraan na nangyari dahil sa pandemya. Kahit na parang madalas pa rin ang sakit ngayon, ang nagiging dahilan nalang natin ay uso ang sakit. Kaya sa mga kababayan natin dito na may crypto investments, may trabaho tapos may negosyo pa, mas lalo pa nating galingan pero huwag pabayaan ang kalusugan. Grabe yung buhay nung panahon na nagsisimula yung pandemya, marami yung naudlot na plano isa na rito yung trahabo ng magulang ko at yung pagaaral ko kaya kung isiipin natin yung buhay natin ngayon ay magpapasalamat ka na lang talaga at nakakaluwag luwag na ulit hindi tulad dati. Sa totoo lang marami ipinamukha satin yung nangyaring pandemya na kung sakaling wala kang diskarte sa buhay ay patuloy kang mahihirapan. Yung kakilala kong naghahanap ng pagkukunan nung pandemya ay meron na ngayong business dahil sa diskarteng ginawa nya. Thankful din talaga ako dahil sa crypto dahil malaki yung naitulong nito sakin lalo na nung nagkaroon rin kami ng Covid, kahit mahal yung nagastos namin ay naisalba parin kaming lahat. About naman sa kalusugan, malaking tulong na rin yung pagkuha ng insurance lalo sa panahon ngayon. Nagplaplano na rin akong kumuha ng insurance kahit yung company na pinagtratrabuhan ko ay may insurance na given dahil hindi natin masasabi kung anong mangyayari satin. Ang daming negosyong nagsara, madami ding empleyado ang nawalan ng trabaho. Pero isang bagay lang ang napansin ko na parehas tayong lahat at yun ay hindi tayo nawalan ng pag asa. Ang dami ding mga buhay ang nawala dahil sa sakit na dala ng covid virus pero lahat tayo pinipilit lumaban ng patas at bumabangon hindi lang para sa sarili natin kundi para rin sa mga pamilya natin. Totoo yang realization mo at yan ay na-apply din sa lahat sa atin na hindi dapat tayo kampante kung anong meron tayo ngayon dahil hindi natin alam ang mangyayari kinabukasan. Ang employment din ay hindi permanente dahil madaming tinanggal sa mga trabaho kaya dapat talagang madiskarte at maparaan ka na kahit anong sitwasyon ay dapat marunong kang mag adapt. Tama ka jan, hindi permanente ang employment kaya hanggat maaari kung kaya mong makapagsimula ng other source of income or business, gawin natin. Huwag maging complacent sa kung anong meron ngayon kasi hindi talaga natin alam ano pa ang mga susunod na mangyayari. Halos lahat nabigla nung pandemic at karamihan ay hanggang ngayon ay bumabangon padin, kaya sana ang iba sa atin ay natuto na sa nangyari. napansin ko lang na iyong ibang tao,mas nag boom ang business nila during pandemic lalo na mga online sellers, Diskarte lang din talaga lalo na sa panahon ngayon. |

I can't remember the exact amount but that was a Basketball sports betting game called "ending" in our country. I placed a bet multiple times in a different numbers and like what I've expected, I didn't win. I accepted it to myself that I'm not lucky when it comes to playing betting games. With that, I didn't stop on betting, I still continue playing it but I set myself a limitation to avoid overspending and to manage my finances. |

Never won any before, but been close to winning is still an anticipation. However, I've been close to friends who won loads of bets and it's actually part of the triggers that got me involved in gambling.
I consider winning a 'luck' but you have to be guided, with the winners I got around me, I'm hoping to win anytime soon but I'm very careful not to get addicted to gambling.
I realized that I have the same situation like yours, I rarely won in gambling activities but I've been so close in winning, so I guess I'm not that lucky when it comes to gambling activity, but I'm winning in a raffle so many times wherein there's no money/payment is involve, like totally winning for free. even though I rarely win, I'm still playing out of fun when I have my free time, So that I don't get obsessed with playing it. |

In my country i observed so many people doing rally and blame the government why the basic needs price rise and the salary is still very low and not enough for daily expenses, is this the effect of the Ukraine and russia war that makes the gas or crude oil so high at price and they pass the gas expenses to the product and it ends to very high price of the basic needs that make us very poor, I see government has a move to resolve the problem but many people are still blaming the government.
only we are fully responsible for our lives, I will never depend my life on the government, it's better for me to work hard myself so that my future is better than now, the government is just administration, they are not a group of people who can make a lot jobs, especially if they fail to attract investors for investment. let's fight for our own lives, the government only cares about their own stomachs. I agree with you, It's true that it's not a government responsibility for us to become successful in life and to end a poverty but they are the one who can do or implement such things just to help us to overcome the poverty in our society. I mean, we are the one who makes our future so better to work hard for ourself so we can achieve more and do not depend everything in the government. |

Is there any minimum amount in investing in bitcoin? because I'm not aware that there's any, even if you're poor or rich, it's up to you how much you want or capable to invest here. I think the right question here is how much a minimum wage earner can invest without affecting funds for essentials since some people wants to invest but doesn't know how they can save money for investment because the entire salary goes towards essentials and bills. Remind yourself that always invest what you can afford to lose. |

If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.
This is actually true, if you are lucky in the first few hours then get out. As luck wouldn't last for hours in casino, the longer you play the more you are losing. Same as the more greedy you become the more greedier you'll become. This thing happened to me, got lucky my $20 becomes $200 then ended up to $40. I know if I continue to risk it, it's either I go home double my money or ended up nothing.  I do also believe in being lucky in the first few hours wherein a casino will let you win multiple times but on the latter part, you'll ended up losing all your winnings. I realized that it happened everytime I tried to continue gambling after 3 wins and In that way, I learned that it's better to stand up and get out once you win up to 3 or more times because you'll know what will going to happen if you decided to bet again all the money that you have. |

Lets discuss guys, how close have you ever been to winning a big about of money, a jackpot, maybe in sports betting or lotto, or any other game that has to do with numbers, online or offline, how close have you ever been to winning a big amount, and what was it that spoilt the win for you.?
Not even close. I have tried this in a lotto outlest here in my place but winning the jackpot is really far from happening. I have been buying tickets for I think like 2 years before but the jackpot is so elusive. I don't know if I had to try to buy tickets again but this depends on my budget. Your ticket combinations are good and is close to winning the jackpot, I wonder if those combinations has significance to you or just random numbers? I remember a couple of years ago, We were so close in winning the Mega Jackpot prize in a Lotto outlet here in our country because all 6 digits combination numbers was picked, but on that day, we didn't bet on the lottery and it was one of our regrettable time. The Mega jackpot prize is worth $576,727. The winning numbers that day is my families combination number since then and we always use those number when we have a time on buying lotto ticket. |
