1261  Economy / Economics / Re: Being rich = not looking at price tag on: November 12, 2023, 08:36:55 AM
Most rich people and poor people, when buying a product, always want to know the price and quality of the goods they buy first, because by knowing the price we can measure our capabilities and manage our finances so that our finances and economy can be maintained, and I see that most rich people are always full of calculation and caution. and rich people can become rich because of their good and always thorough calculations.

But rich people also vary depending on their wealth situation.

but of course in this case it depends on the situation and conditions because there are times when when we are busy or urgent we forget something that should have been researched before buying and in the end we don't pay attention to it.
I agree with your statement, Most rich people tends to calculate and has a budget list for all of their expenses so they will track if they are overspending or not. Not to brag or what, but some people often buy things with higher value and good quality because they believe that it's okay to spend and to invest in a quality product at one time purchase rather than Cheap price but in the end, there's a big chance to purchase multiple times which results a much higher price if they will calculate the total overall money that they spent in that product.

Isa na ito sa mga madaming rug pull projects, nag start lang naman mag interested ang pinoy sa crypto nung nag start ang Axie era kasi yung iba pumaldo talaga at yung iba is sobrang laki ng kanilang lugi kaya until now is umaasa pa din silang mabawi yung mga into, but para sa akin is naging reason na din ito ibang tao na gusto gumawa ng P2E kasi nga alam nilang parang madali lang manipulate mga pinoy dito sa mga earnings. Kaya nga invest lang yung kaya mong mawala even though pera lang ito pero ung time and effort mo din kasi sayang lang if mag rug lang ito.
Isa talaga sa reason bakit mas naging interesado ang mga pinoy sa P2E ay dahil sa axie, Sa totoo lang madami naman talaga ang kumita ng almost 6 digits sa paglalaro non kaya tuloy ngayon once may lumabas na play to earn games, ang dali para sa iba na mag invest at magbitaw ng pera kahit hindi manlang nila inaral o hindi manlang nag research about sa developer ng games, tumatak na sa isip nila na once nauna kang pumasok, mas mabilis ang ROI pero in reality, kahit mauna or mahuli ka pa sa pagpasok, once na scam ang sinalihan mo, mawawala't mawawala ang perang ininvest mo.

This is a good one and magbebenefit talaga dito ang nga student na nagnanais matuto about blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. Dati pa may ganitong programa as far as I know pero ngayon mag gumaganda yung exposure nya sayang nga lang at hinde ko na ito naabutan, sana mas maraming University pa ang mapuntahan nila especially yung mga State University. Hoping as well that they will spread financial literacy as well and wag lang puro Blockchain.
Tama, lalo na sa panahon ngayon, masasabi nating madaming students ang interested pagdating sa cryptoworld at bitcoin pero lack of knowledge and resources, lalo na alam naman natin na medyo mahirap mag self study, mas mainam din na merong mga kapwa pinoy na magtuturo sa kanila ng basic intro pagdating sa crypto, step by step and one at a time na pagtuturo dahil malawak ang mundo ng crypto.
1264  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Tax Efficient With Your Gambling Habbits? on: November 12, 2023, 05:49:03 AM
We pay extra tax on everything we use but paying tax on gambling seems a little surprising to me. I'm already tired of paying extra tax on everything and then again if we have to pay tax on such a risky site like gambling it will be a very bad thing for us. Gambling is already very risky, money can be lost when gambling. Paying taxes from a platform where there is no guarantee of money is really ridiculous. Even if I pay taxes for everything else, at least I'll never pay for gambling. I will turn off gambling if necessary but I am not willing to pay taxes for gambling. Every gambler, not just me, will say that and they certainly don't pay the government taxes for their gambling.
As far as I know, Once you win in any gambling, you won't get the whole value prize because there's a limit amount that is subject to tax. so better to Make sure you keep good records of your gambling activities; losses as well as gains. I as well doesn't want to pay taxes for my gambling activities but it is stated in the law.
1265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can a gambler be a good bitcoin trader? on: November 12, 2023, 03:31:35 AM
Can a gambler become a good trader? Yes. If he learns how to trade. He has little to read about risk management and he should still know that he should trade with the amount of money that he can afford to lose.
well, both of them is very risky and thats a fact. When you are a gambler, it doesn't mean that you're able to become a trader because there's a big difference between them. let say that in gambling, you can play whenever you like and there's a chance to win because of luck without having a background idea on what you are playing while in trading, you need to have technical analysis before you trade and it needs an intensive plan and decision making. Though, Gambling is more enjoyable to play than trading, I think it's better to focus in one of them.
1266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard about financing a gambler? on: November 12, 2023, 03:20:55 AM
There are definitely some professional gamblers that are good enough that have financial backers, though I’m not real sure how many are out there and how it all works legality wise. But I know if I had the extra money to help finance a professional gambler with a proven track record I certainly would. This is after all how some people make very good livings.
I think financing a gambler is fine but it needs an accurate tracking record to know if a gambler has a potential of majority winning and losing so that you will have a basis on how much yoi are able to fund a gambler, Im not deep when it comes to this thing but I think it needs a legal agreement and both sides will agree on the terms and conditions of a funder.
1267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do Owners of betting companies bet? on: November 12, 2023, 01:59:29 AM
Do not forget that he is the owner. He can do whatever he likes. If the owner of a gambling site wants to gamble, he will prefer to use his own site that will benefit him to have fun than to gambling on the gambling site of others that will not benefit him.

I see this as off-topic though.
I don't think the owner will prefer to gamble in his own site because there's a Terms and conditions prior the gambling and I think that would result as a conflict of interest since he is the owner, though im not sure of that but for me it's basically prohibited.
1268  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: November 12, 2023, 01:53:49 AM
I have the believe that success in gambling requires a mixture of luck and skill. This is opposed to some people that believe that gambling is entirely a game of luck and others who believe it is entirely a game of skill.

So I am tempted to inquire if skill is all that is needed to be successful in gambling or luck. Whichever be the option, which of them is the most important factor for gambling success?
Same as you, I believe that luck and skills are both important in gambling, many of people always say that if you won a huge amount, it's all about luck but as per the winner, they build a unique strategy on how to achieve winning. One factors that helps them to get the big money while losing minimal value is their Self/emotional control and wise decisions.
1269  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you leave gambling if your future wife/husband tells you to do this ? on: November 11, 2023, 12:34:57 PM
Many of us started gambling at the teenage although it's required 18 + but many of started before 18. I started gamble at the age of 17. I am also 17 years old. I take my own risk and I started sports beating. Sports waiting help me to be a self depend a person. Continuously I am doing this in my opinion I am not going to leave this in future because I started earning from batting and day by day I get more experience. I will do it in future because that will be a source of income for me. I am not leaving it by listening my future wife told me. Because itself me to be a self depended person that's why I am not leaving it. Limitation gambling help me not to addected.
Well as i've always said, It depends to every individual because we have our own perspective when it comes to this matter. For you, it's okay for you not to leave gambling because it gives you a money and this is your source of income but is it much better to have a stable job rather than gambling? no matter how good you are in playing, it is important for you to know when to stop. Do not let gambling affects your relationship with your partner.
1270  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you gamble till old age or not on: November 11, 2023, 11:28:56 AM
I think everyone old age should be free from the drama of gambling, the tension that gamblers face sometime can get to you especially if you are old and still gambling and just like you said mate, only an addicted person would be thinking so fundly of actually continuing his gambling habits even when old and going as far as  adding it to his retirement plans. I, for once am sure that wouldn't be my plan when I do get old instead going on a vacation as you have said would be the nicer way to spend your old age especially when you have lots of grand kids that need your attention  Grin
I would like to agree on this point that those people will make gamble in his older age those are addicted. But here's the thing if he can afford it I don't think there's anything wrong with that.But I think that most of the time when we get old, various physical infirmities come and in most cases, gambling funds cannot be afforded as before.  I have also seen among my own relatives that they had to sell their land for physical gambling even at the age of 75 years. So I also think that it will be better avoid gambling in the older age

People still tend to play gambling because they want to get entertained, it depends on the habit of a person, some of them earn alot of money and of course, want to have some fun with life gambling is one of their nostalgic activities when they are young, but if you are old enough without having a good amount of savings i guess youll focus in your child and grandchild because it's so more fun how they grow every day. But currently base on my experience too old people right here playing gambling not in casino but just a casual game with their neighbors and they could tell this as their bondng.
When it comes to "bonding", i would like to share that One of the classic gambling for middle class  oldies in our country is mahjong, if you're familiar in that gambling, they can play it inside of their house with their friends and sometimes they do this as hobby instead of playing in a common casino, knowing their ages, some seniors doesn't want crowded places and they didn't like traveling back and forth that's why mahjong is very common for old gamblers.
1271  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling on: November 11, 2023, 10:59:55 AM
That's why we called it gamble and gambler loves to try and check for their luck, who knows a lucky day will come their way and make them win huge amount of money, they are all aware about the risk and they wanted to prove something, best practice is to know when to stop and how to deal with your loses, if you can prevent yourself from following your emotions then you have all the time to enjoy and not to excessively play and lose a lot.
Unfortunately, they also don't realize that after losing a certain amount, they don't immediately stop gambling but continue gambling. From there, they start to get more losses, which will become bigger if they don't stop gambling. They also don't try to control themselves after losing and that is not the way to stay safe while gambling. They can stay safe while gambling by still trying to control themselves from losing a lot. We must try to prevent ourselves and not follow emotions, especially when there is a desire to recover from the losses we have experienced. It will be increasingly difficult because all that remains is that we will experience more and more losses.
The reason why they wont stop playing while losing such amount because they are chasing their losses to the point that they lose more and more in gambling , they didn't even realize what's their actions and decisions that they made because the only important thing in their mind is to get back all the money that they lose or hoping to multiply the money that they have in a higher prize.

Maganda yung hangarin niya para sa akin dahil kahit papano nakafollow ako sa kanya at nababasa ko mga posts niya sa social media page niya. Expected naman na din na iadvertise niya din mga courses siya pero may aim siya na magspread ng knowledge tungkol sa Bitcoin sa mga schools na pupuntahan niya. At bago naman siya makapunta doon ay may permiso naman yan kung papayag yung university o school na inask niya kung pwede magconduct ng ganyang uri ng campaign drive. Dahil yang propesyon naman niya ay nagse-share din siya ng knowledge at kung sa atin naman din ay hindi tayo papayag na walang return sa atin. Isa yan sa dahilan at motivation niya at syempre yung higit doon ay makapagshare ng related sa trading at Bitcoin.
Tama , Lets look at the brighter side wag naman ang negative sides , sige meron syang pansariling interest dito pero yong naibabalik nya naman sa mga natuturuan nya .
and since free naman tong ginagawa nya eh tingin ko wala naman sigurong mawawala kung pakikingan , nasa mga nakikinig naman kung sasakay sila sa lahat ng gusto nyang  ipagawa , mahalaga eh may free knowledge na actual pang itinuturo .
Masasabi mong maganda talaga ang hangarin at iniisip ang mga kapwa dahil una, shineshare niya sa mga tao ang kaalaman niya pagdating sa crypto which is very often to discuss in a college/University, take note na libre at walang registration fee unlike sa mga other seminars & Webinars na may payment before makajoin, which is understandable naman. Walang masama kung makikinig tayo dahil at some point, madami talaga tayong matututunan lalo na sa mga matatagal na sa kalakaran ng crypto. Siguro kaya ito free dahil kahit papaano kapag maraming nanood sa videos niya, mamomonetize ang youtube niya at kikita padin sta at the end.
1273  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Tataas Kaya Ang Awareness Ng MgaTao Sa Bitcoin Kung May Mga Billboard on: November 10, 2023, 12:48:20 PM
Ang billboard ay isa sa mga magandang paraan para tumaas ang awareness sa isang brand para kasi itong landmark sa isang lugar minsan may mga lugar ako na napupuntahan na ang ginagawa kong landmark ay yung mga bill board sa paligid ko, kaya sigurado masarap pakinggan kung may mag tuturo ng isang lugar at ang gamit ay ang bilboard ng Bitcoin.
Siguro ang mga dapat gumawa nito ay yung mga bagong platform na gusto agad silang ma recognize bilang bagong player sa industriya ng Crypto currency sa ating bansa.
Subok na to sa maraming panahon , na ang billboard ay nagdadala ng tagumpay sa bawat produkto , kaya nga ganon nalang kamahal ang rent sa mga Ad Space na to lalo na kung naka positions a mga strategic places mas nagmamahal , yong company namin noon ay nag rent for 1 year para lang sa 500 squarefoot na billboard eh gumastos na kami ng 7 digits pero sulit naman dahil talaga Bumalik naman ang gastos sobra sobra pa.
but nowadays eh parang hindi na ganon kalaking advantage ang mga ads na to, instead mas nakafocus na sa internet ads ang mga kumpanya.
Tama ka jan, May mga times padin na helpful ang billboard ads but mostly nagiging target nalang nito yung mga bumibiyahe sa kalsada. Since we are living in a modern age, Mas napapadali nalang ang mga bagay bagay lalo na ngayon na sikat ang social media advertisements, Isang click lang maboboost na agad ang post mo, lalo na halos lahat ng mga tao at business partners ay tutok sa kanya kanyang gadgets while scrolling and checking their social accounts.
1274  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What conditions might cause you to stop gambling? on: November 10, 2023, 12:26:07 PM
For me it's quite simple. If I don't have money to bet , I won't even open the website because I know from start that gambling the money I don't have can turn out quickly into a bad habit so I remind myself this everytime I want to gamble and I don't have the money. To stop gambling it's the same ...no money to spare = no money to bet but I know a lot of people who are making debts just to place a freaking bet and it's sad to see this.
those who are making debts just to play gambling are those person who's suffering in an obesession in gambling which ia unhealthy in their physical and menral health, If it's easy for you to quit gambling when you dont have money, then congrats because you're on your mind and you know what you should supposed to do if you ran out of money. Most improtantly, know your priorities rathen than your own happiness and vices in life.
1275  Economy / Economics / Re: Is academic pursues enough to get incomes? on: November 10, 2023, 10:47:40 AM
Take for instant,  a seamstress without a degree only believes in acquiring a small space where they will sew. No advertisement,  no promotions and the seamstress might do little or nothing at all to influence her brand.  She only believes customers who passby will locate her. This act will only limit her customer base and possibly hinder the growth of her business.  On the other hand, a degree holder who has undergone training on different marketing skills and how to reach out to customers no matter the distance will do better.

Academic pursuit makes one prepared for any opportunity.  This opportunities might be delayed but when it finally comes, you should not be caught unprepared.
Skill application in the world of work and business is somewhat like that. When you decide to learn, there's no guarantee of success from the start, but learning increases the chances of achieving your goals more easily. Although it's not a surefire thing, with better odds, you can reach your objectives with a higher success rate.

Educated individuals might not always outperform those without formal education... it depends on how someone approaches the world of work and business. Education isn't the sole factor that supports a person's success in their career or business... it's not the primary key. There are other factors that can influence a person's success apart from education.
As we know that some business individuals who is now very successful in their life are the one who doesn't have any education at first, Some them became successful because of their natural intelligence and determination. At this age, Many people who has a bachelor degree but still dont have a successful career in life so I think, its not all about education, It's all about your will to work, your dreams, perseverance and determination to reach the success in life
1276  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cash out or keep playing? on: November 10, 2023, 10:31:33 AM
It is most likely that things will go south after you win because the excitement of the win will definitely put you in a psychological position that will make you see the wins as easy and then the money starts redcuing, in a bit to want to meet up with the amount it was. Thats gonna see you loose even more.
So that means, If you won a huge amount better to cash out the prize at first and pause for a moment and think well if you want to play again or it's okay to play again but do not use the whole prize that you've claimed, just use at least 5% of the money then it's up to you how will you manage to use that 5% in gambling, in that way you will prevent yourself losing the whole prize that you have while still playing.
1277  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things you should always avoid while gambling ? on: November 10, 2023, 10:13:59 AM
Avoid being emotional. I guess that's the number one thing. If you are emotional, you will be carried away by joy, greed, despair, etc. If you are winning and you're very emotional, you could end up losing everything. You think you're lucky and would continue to play even after winning big already. Or if you lost, you could be angry and you would chase your loss and try to recover it. This emotion is equally damaging. You would go home with a bigger loss.
One can never be too emotional when it comes to gambling. Always consider the facts and then a gambler has to make a decision. Just as excessive greed is not good, it is never good to be overly emotional. Losing a bet will make you sad but winning a bet will give you immense joy and because of that extreme joy you will be overly greedy and emotional if you bet your money in the wrong place again you can lose all the money. No matter how much money you make in betting, before placing your next bet you need to think whether you are betting in the right place or in the wrong place. Never take a bet thinking that whatever is in luck, you should be confident enough in yourself and then decide to bet. Over-emotional decision-making means losing your money.

Why would you say that?
In fact, as far as I know, most people who gamble cannot manage their emotions which makes them lose control and makes them lose a lot of money, not a few people are like this. It is a fact that losing is synonymous with sadness or disappointment and winning is synonymous with joy, excitement, happiness. There is no defeat that makes us happy even outside of gambling, I don't think there is. 'You win, you're happy, you lose, you just shut up bro". And I think when people lose in gambling, most people will feel upset about the defeat they get. And when they lose, there will be a sense of emotion that will make them want to pursue the losses they have lost and they may lose more money to pursue the losses.
How to distinguish the right and wrong places?
Doesn't gambling only rely on luck?
Are there patterns and tricks to be able to get continuous wins?
I think that's one of the reason that you must know prior in entering gambling world, everyone should at least learn how to manage their emotions, It's up to a person in what way they can manage their emotions, I also agree that everyone has a different level of emotional control and it's valid. It's also difficult to determine when to stop or when to proceed in gambling because we didn't know what will gonna happen if you're not planned it well. Does gambling only rely on luck? for me yes, but for others they have different strategies and plan when they gamble.
1278  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice for new comers on: November 10, 2023, 09:45:10 AM
One key advice, never gamble for "making money" or as a source of income to pay your bills. You should gamble for fun. Think of the losses as a "payment" for the entertainment and the profits as a "rewards" that you can use to play more. Never run after the losses. That will only cause you to lose more. And oh, remember, in the long run, it's the house that will always in. Plus, gamble only if you can afford to gamble. Think of gambling as a luxury that you can live without. If you do start gambling, and feel like you are doing it too much and can't stop, you should start talking to someone about it. But remember, precaution is better than cure.
Thet "gamble only if you can afford to gamble" Is very much true, Sometimes some people used to borrow a money to others or they will use their savings just to get along with others in gambling even in reality, they can't afford to play, which is very dangerous if you're starting to gamble. Never ever use a loan money because it will lead you in having a huge debt, worst case scenario; a bankruptcy.
1279  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling or gaming sites on: November 10, 2023, 09:38:11 AM
So, be some of the wise people in determining something, including in choosing the gambling site that we will visit.

At least find out and ask in this forum, there is a lot of information on sites that have good reputations in this forum, of course people will recommend the best and most trusted places for us to play because out there we don't necessarily get accurate information based on fake reviews that can be done by the casino, but this forum is based on the experiences of real people where there are no fake reviews as long as they are from users who have high rankings in the forum.

I also always look for new casinos on this forum because it is safer for anyone who asks, you can directly see positive feedback from friends on the forum who may have tried playing on one of the recommended casino sites, of course with the reputation of their account too. It's impossible to cheat anyone, that's why it's important to ask what the best gambling sites are on this forum rather than asking out there.
You're right! This forum helps a lot when it comes to looking for suggestions and recommendations also a lot of experts will extend their help just to make sure that all new comers in gambling will not going to experience any scam activities.Informations from the experts and pioneers here is one of a trusted for me than asking someone outside this forum .
1280  Economy / Economics / Re: How Much Does Food Cost in Your Country? on: November 09, 2023, 01:44:11 PM
I want to know about the cost of living and average income in each country. Can I ask that here?

For comparison, may I ask how much a standard meal in your country costs for one meal? what is the standard food menu? What is the average monthly and annual income in your country? Please those who answer can use calculations in USD

Note: I don't need the tables issued by the government because they are usually different from the reality on the ground

In Philippines, The basic monthly salary offer is $250.00- $300.00 and the average income is $650.00 but it depends on your location because we have a city and provincial rate. Provincial rate is lower than the city rate because of the cost of living in City is much higher especially Around BGC, Makati and Manila. For the cost of one meal is $3.00 and the standard food menu from Fast food chain is chicken, Rice and Drinks. To save money, better to cook your own food than buying outside, as well as having your own car to lessen your Transportation expenses.
