You cannot become rich from gambling, but you can become poor from gambling. That's what many gamblers must realize so they don't try too hard to get money from gambling. It is better for them to try hard from other places unrelated to gambling to increase their chances of getting bigger money.

But unfortunately, many gamblers still think of making money from gambling so they keep gambling and use more money. If they have already lost, that doesn't stop them from gambling because they will think that tomorrow will be better and their luck will come tomorrow.
That's the thinking of people who are addicted to gambling and find it difficult to cure gambling addiction because they think that they lost today and still have tomorrow as luck. If they were able to think like you said it might be right then better to look elsewhere for profit but the problem is addicted gamblers don't think that way anymore because their logic is definitely different from the mindset of us who gamble just for fun.

There is no chance to get richer in gambling and all the same we try to speculate on bets, so before things go too far, gamble according to what you can control and I have nothing against gambling because it has been around for a long time and basically we all also like to gamble.

Online casinos are places where it's certain that you will lose your money, it's a place where you need to be mentality sane to at least have a good ride and experience as you progress, it's not always about making money with gambling, it's always about not ending up running insane because of gambling.
That's why you need to understand the nature of gambling, there is no way to earn a steady income at gambling and most people will end up badly if they think so. Instead, gamble when you have the opportunity to have fun and remember the limit on the amount of money you can lose, that's how to deal with gambling so you don't get caught up in addiction.

To make this happen, you need to discipline yourself up, make sure you set some rules on how you will handle gambling every day and how much you are willing to risk on gambling every day or else you will end up in the gutter, with full regrets.
What's worse, gamblers don't have a steady income and they think when they play gambling they will make money in exchange for work, this type of gambler can be sure to end badly enough and will end up as a madman.

That's if you are not even addicted to gambling already, a addicted gambler always have one goal in mind, '( I have to make back all I have lost ), this is where the beginning of the end begins.
LOL. In the end they will also suffer losses instead of getting back all the money they lost. Disciplined scale gambling can only be done by those who want to have fun and don't expect it to be done by gamblers who have experienced addiction.
964  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Things that still make feel awkward with some online casinos on: May 31, 2023, 05:11:47 PM
Yes, those casinos are clearly taking advantage of us as much as they can. It only proves that they are not worth to play and cannot be trusted. That’s the reason why we need to be careful in choosing for an online casino, the one that is more secured and is proven to give customer support rather than luring its customers with high gas fees. Robbery is always bad, so we should learn to avoid online casinos that is clearly practicing this negative treatment towards its players or users.
Online gambling sites do not run a business in this way, for operational costs they already have special funds to run gambling sites and the reason for increasing the burden of operational costs from customers is the wrong pattern. In my opinion, companies that undergo a business on gambling sites will not do such things if you already have a good reputation as one of the trusted gambling sites, maybe the obstacle is because the bitcoin transaction costs are much higher, but when returning to normal as usual will be adjusted, maybe?

Other options may be able to choose a network that can be adjusted to the lower costs, for example using altcoin so that costs can be a little cheaper that can be adjusted, in this way we must recognize whether gambling sites provide deposit or withdrawal options using more features, so that when faced with With problems like this the we has the necessary options.
965  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't gamble if you don't have patience on: May 31, 2023, 04:08:27 PM
This is a problem of the consumer society, but perhaps everything works a little differently regarding gambling, here the player cannot just buy what he wants, here he must win, and this is a slightly different psychology than just buying something. But this can overlap if, in the desire to win, the player will take a loan for this and play for this money. If you do not control yourself, then you can get a lot of problems because of it.
Gambling is always synonymous with defeat and there is no way to generate income regularly when people play gambling because they are addicted. Controlling yourself when gambling depends on how you place the position of gambling itself and the difficulty lies in whether or not someone is addicted to gambling because this talks about the logic that influences habits. I am not against gambling for any reason, moreover I myself also like to gamble under certain conditions.

The problem is how to position gambling in everyday life and I agree that we ourselves are able to control it and if we don't it will end in a bad condition like many conditions experienced by people who find it difficult to get out of addiction, especially when talking about cases of gambling that using borrowed money from other parties and this is even more dangerous and ridiculous.
966  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Crypto coin Do You Gamble with the Most? on: May 31, 2023, 03:01:17 PM
So for me, I've always preferred to do all my gambling in stable coins only for the reasons given above..
So what about you? Do you feel and do the same or do you have a different perspective to this altogether? Let's discuss.
Lots of online gambling sites currently offer deposit and withdrawal options using crypto, this trend has been so big in recent years and some people also believe this is a step in protecting the privacy of a gambler. When asked what crypto is often at stake when playing online gambling, I think it depends on the site used and each person's personal choices, but usually I prefer to use USDT, BUSD or other types of crypto.

Some people prefer to use bitcoins when gambling, the reason being that they can hold bitcoins and there is no need to rush to sell after winning at gambling, the habits of active gamblers may be more familiar with choosing bitcoins. But for me it's too risky to lose my bitcoins when I lose, due to the nature of gambling it's hard to keep winning and the options I use on UDST or BUSD.
967  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Overcoming my fear of bitcoin and online businesses on: May 28, 2023, 09:01:16 PM
My observation so far in the few weeks that I have spent in bitcointalk, I have noticed that there is willingness by senior members to give directions and corrections to newbies who seek it. I hope to be teaching newbies too one day. Any more advice by members on how to increase my confidence level and learning will be humbly received by me.

Something natural surrounds your heart when we first got to know bitcoin, moreover you are used to the fiat system which has credibility and guarantees from the government, even though in its part it also experiences problems every time. Moreover, talking about bitcoin which is anonymous and its creator is not clear because we only know the name but never know which person it is. Confidence depends on how far you learn to understand about bitcoin and at first I also had the same doubts as you, but when curiosity leads us to learn to know and that's where we find the real answer.

Discuss what you don't understand and use the search option on the forum about what you want to learn, then see how the forum shapes our trust in bitcoin. At this stage I like the pattern you are questioning which does not directly lead to investment, because indeed a beginner should choose a path like you to learn first. Bitcoin fluctuations can lead you to a panicked state and knowledge is a path to conclusions, which is why it is important to understand before taking a direct approach to investing.
968  Economy / Economics / Re: If they have the solution, why are banks still failing? on: May 28, 2023, 03:41:33 PM
Politicians like to pretend they have the solution to every single problem that plagues our society but if that was true then we will not have the massive problems we have right now, besides it is easy to see why banks keep failing and that is because governments keep rescuing them, if banks knew that if they went bankrupt then they will have to accept massive losses then they will be way more conservative, but when they can do whatever they want and not lose money, is it that surprising they are making all kind of risky investments as they know they will be rescued if they lose?
That is why I say politics plays a far greater role in this region and they only seem to pretend to want to solve problems, but the reality is nothing more than unbelievable talk. If they want to solve every problem, it is impossible for them to be unable to do it because strength and regulation are their property and also if needed they can revise certain laws that do not benefit the government as a whole. For example, like the banking case that is increasingly problematic and more complex at this time, but the question is why they don't solve this problem completely?

They will continue to maintain the banking system in the same way and my response to previous posts about banks that experience problems and why financial experts do not fix them, which are in the spotlight for me not they do not want to improve the existing system, but talk about interests and pretend to have Solution but also not run. While Crypto and Bitcoin continue to be fastened about negative things as the reference conveyed by the OP in this post.
969  Economy / Economics / Re: Can I take a loan to invest in bitcoin? on: May 27, 2023, 06:32:33 PM
"Can I take a loan to invest in bitcoin" this question was asked by a friend
If you/friends are people who often take loans to do something then no force can stop you, even if other people try to give advice on this matter.

My reply to her is this:
It is generally not advisable to take out a loan to purchase Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile and the value of a particular coin can fluctuate greatly in a short period of time. This means that the value of the coin you purchase with a loan could drop, making it difficult to repay the loan. It is important to do your own research and make sure you understand the risks before investing in any financial product, including Bitcoin.
You have answered all the questions I wanted to ask and what other answers can we give. Borrowing to invest is very risky and speaking of risks only you can adjust to, the concept of investing is a way to get profit and how to do it also depends on each person. Taking a loan or not for investment requires planning for the impact of the risks that will arise and I do not recommend anyone investing using borrowed money, but you know better what to do before making a decision.
970  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: journey to financial freedom on: May 27, 2023, 05:21:32 PM
In January 2009 after the release of Bitcoin, the journey to financial freedom begun, i believe this is the right platform for me to learn more about bitcoin, though Bitcoin is 14 years old now, hope i'm not too late to join the bus?
Everyone will say one word about this "I was running late and started to miss the bus" and sadly no one cares whether it's late or not for us to the system of financial freedom through bitcoin. The age of bitcoin has entered 14 years and how can we get the maximum benefit from investing in bitcoin and try to make patterns so that we continue to consistently buy every time we have money.

To be honest it's never too late when you want to invest in bitcoin, it's just that you need to be more consistent and continue to collect according to the capital you have. DCA is one of the closest for you to take this approach to enter the market and I believe that when you are consistent in the coming year you will be holding growing amounts of bitcoins.
971  Economy / Economics / Re: If they have the solution, why are banks still failing? on: May 27, 2023, 04:51:13 PM
I have always seen bad news about the cryptocurrency industry making headlines in national and international newspapers. The government and bankers criticize the industry and portray the banks as the only remedy to the financial problems of the world. SVB recorded six straight quarterly losses, why didn't these financial gurus fix the bank? Yet they claim to be the only solution.
They are controlled by the system itself, that is the reason why many banks go bankrupt. I don't think it's because experts can't fix this problem, but whose interest and power must be asked? Sometimes interests only operate at the level of satisfaction and they will do nothing to change the previous system for the better because when that happens, their power and influence will be lost and no longer needed.

Every country has laws governing the fiat currency system, besides being binding and there is no room for violations because speaking of state revenues, politics plays a much bigger role in this area and it's hard to say why they can't solve that problem. It is their simple logic that makes the regulations, they also regulate the system and they are the ones who can solve the problem. The question why is it so difficult for them to resolve if the power is in their hands? The answer is because they never want to finish.
972  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: May 27, 2023, 04:07:19 PM
On the contrary, it looks like Newcastle have made sure his position will not be displaced by Liverpool. that means, Eddie Howe is likely to give second-tier players a chance in their final game against Chelsea. after all, winning or losing will not have a big impact on them.

But otherwise, this fight should be a win for Chelsea. not to target points, but to close Chelsea's farewell to Frank Lampard with a win. So, like it or not, Chelsea will play all out in the game later. besides, they are at the advantage of playing as the home team.
well, the dealer gave a pretty ideal odds of @2.90 for Chelsea. at least, I will try to bet on luck to choose Chelsea in the match.
Finishing in third or fourth place is no longer a problem for Manchester United and Newcastle because these two clubs have already confirmed qualification for the Champions League next season. On the other hand, the last match for both of them will be much more interesting because considering this is the closing of the premier league and the match will take place simultaneously at 22.30. I will choose to watch Chelsea vs Newcastle because this match is far more interesting and quite competitive in my opinion.

Even though the odds of winning given to Chelsea are much greater by the bookie as you convey, in my opinion choosing Newcastle is far more profitable than placing a bet for Chelsea, because it is too risky to bet on the victory of Lampard's team. So far in the last six games Chelsea have only managed one win against Bournemouth, draw against Nottingham Forest and the rest ended in defeat.
973  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trust in cryptocurrency? on: May 26, 2023, 08:10:56 PM
Recently, I've been wondering, and based on the people I live with, I'd say that only 20% of them know what cryptocurrency is.
Sometimes I ask my friend or colleague if he knows what Bitcoin is, and if they're young (20-35 years old), they say, "Yes, I've heard about it. But I don't know much about it."
If I'm talking to older people (40–60), mostly they don't know what it is.
Just knowing and having heard will not bring a conclusion to someone like that. I mean most people know bitcoin but they don't know how it works and this is based on some experimental data collected in the area where I live. Especially if you ask people over (40-60) years old whose internet knowledge is completely unknown to them, so they never know about bitcoin news at all.

We are living in a world of big changes in every aspect of life. But do you think it will be time when cryptocurrency will come into our lives and be normal for all people? Will people be able to trust crypto?
Technology and the internet are media that can introduce people to cryptocurrencies because most social media platforms advertise or we often find photos or videos about them.

Regarding normal or not depends on how curious people who don't know him are. If technology and the internet are part of them right now then it's probably normal for them, everyone has different beliefs about crypto, especially for those who don't know it. But are you sure that technology and the internet will lead them to find out what crypto is and how to use it?
974  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin be trusted? on: May 26, 2023, 07:02:25 PM
I want know if it will not crash and I need help to convince him about it that it will not crash because am a beginner and I haven't know much about bitcoin so I guess been here I will fine help to assist my friend to join the forum.
Confidence in anything will be formed when you and anyone know him, that's how logic is formed in trusting anything. Trust in Bitcoin will be far more formed when you have the capital to buy it and store it as a long -term investment. Sometimes we need to think simple for something we trust and will be in vain when we believe but never want to be involved in investment.

Don't make sure people that Bitcoin will not crash but instead tell your friends about Bitcoin votality in the market, so they can learn to understand how to solve the impact of risk when they are in investment and give your friends understanding of Bitcoin's trip from the beginning of their appearance until now.
975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: May 26, 2023, 06:17:18 PM
Everyone also knows that Manchester City is much better than Inter and I also agree with that statement. However, there are a number of small things that might make it difficult for Manchester City to achieve their goal of getting a treble winner this season. Lately Inter have been in good form in Serie A or other competitions in Italy and they have managed to win two trophies so far. Even though Inter are not favored at all to win the champions league this season, I think they will still surprise them for sure.

We know Manchester City has a pattern of attacks from various sides and often presses hard, but Inter have had a pretty extraordinary defense in the last few games and their level of productivity has increased so far. I think that Manchester City's chances of winning the Champions League are very big, but Inter only need a 1% chance to overturn that advantage.
That is part of Inter Milan's strengths, which have an increasingly solid defense in the previous few matches and Inter Milan has a gap to hold Man City until the game is over and penalties are a good scenario for Inter Milan in the final later. But so far the composition of Man City's players is so complete on all fronts, we can see how the Real Madrid players keep their movements and don't let Haaland score goals and Man City always has other options as a substitute for Haaland in scoring goals

I'm not trying to underestimate Inter Milan's strength because after all they still have hope of coming out as champions, but talking about other strengths and counts Man City is far superior. Unless Inter Milan can implement a good defensive strategy and not let Man City score goals, then they can try their luck through a penalty shootout scenario.
976  Economy / Economics / Re: Why you should use spare money to invest on: May 26, 2023, 05:41:16 PM
I noticed the title doesn't quite match the content of the discussion, don't be offended that's just my personal view.

There is no normal being that loves getting losses on business, career, investment and trades that's why even company holders make financial policies to keep record of investment and profits flows. And unlike other business bitcoin also makes sales and losses if you do not investment wisely....is nice when you put in what can not put you sickbed or gives you hypertension, don't invest out of what you cannot withstand the loss.

Is better to use small money or learn risk management first before investing especially newbies.
Everyone must have the right balance sheet and properly recorded when owning a business because this can see the development of the business that we run. Investments must also be based on how much you are prepared to lose, but regarding the financial record relationship it depends on how you make it, but mostly and I myself have never made bookkeeping of investments in bitcoin.

Investment is not seen from the amount, but how we can be involved consistently, small or large depending on how our financial condition is, so everyone has a different way of approaching investment. But the most important thing before we start is to learn the right way of investing, so that we can maximize any risk of price fluctuations that occur.
977  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: May 26, 2023, 04:51:35 PM
There was no more discussion of trying to get into the top four when the final score of Manchester United vs Chelsea was 4-1.
Liverpool position is secure there in fifth and next season they will compete in the Europa League.
At least Erik ten Hag will now try to focus on maintaining third place with a draw in the final Premier League match which will take place simultaneously at the same time.

Seeing how serious Manchester United's players were yesterday made us very happy because there was no space to play relaxed when Casemiro opened the scoring and was continued by Martial at half time.
The battle for the top four positions in the standings is over and Liverpool must be satisfied with being ranked fifth this season, Man United has ensured that they will end the season in third place because one match remaining will be much easier for them to face. Newcastle will have their last match against Chelsea, believe it or not this match will be a gamble for Lampard and I predict the match will end in a draw.

I watched the game until the end and it should have been more than 4-1 if Eriksen and Garnacho took some good chances to score. Man United put in an excellent performance in last night's match and I saw not many mistakes made by Erik Ten Hak's men, though the goal from Chelsea was a mistake by the defender who was late in closing the shot space for Felix to score.
978  Economy / Speculation / Re: Know your time to HOLD on: May 25, 2023, 09:00:48 PM
Actually there is no need to regret when bitcoin doesn't touch the price we want, because of course we already know bitcoin price movements are unpredictable, in other words our predictions cannot be 100% correct. So from here we need to realize that we have to adopt a strategy that doesn't leave us behind, as you said, the DCA strategy can be a solution to that uncertainty. With DCA we can buy bitcoin at a price close to our predictions, even though it turns out that in the end the decline is more than what we expected we can continue buying with the money we have prepared.
Not always our expectations can go as we wish because we talk about price fluctuations and there is always uncertainty regarding the correct prediction of bitcoin price movements, but if you refer to the title of the post in OP "Know your time to HOLD" it will refer to how confident you are to hold bitcoin and should not have to worry about price expectations that do not match predictions. Talking about your trust is the one that will make decisions and bitcoin will never make us lose when the investment is carried out according to the right pattern.

DCA is one of the approaches that people can take to collect bitcoins, although sometimes it is not always at the purchase price we predict. But the essence of investing in fluctuating assets is not at what price you buy, but at what price you sell to make a profit. Take a number of patterns that we can follow and don't get your hopes up on predictive expectations, because bitcoin can be bought in conditions beyond predictions and we are HolDing enough to get the desired profit.
979  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: May 25, 2023, 06:54:06 PM
Manchester city is indeed predicted to win the treble winner this season if they can get the champions league title, but Inter also just won the Coppa Italia last night and at the same time makes them have the same opportunity to get the treble winner by winning the champions league title this season.

It seems that the competition between the two teams is getting more interesting, especially since the determinant for the treble winner this season is who will win the champion's league title and seeing that each team's chances of winning this are still quite wide open. As we get closer to the final round of the Champions League, the two teams are certainly very excited to be able to win the treble winner in all competitions this season.
Man City has far better strengths in terms of the players they currently have and Pep Guardiola is also one of the coaches who has the ability to set tactics so that opposing players don't dwell on ball possession and regulate the rhythm of the game. The only weakness of the Man City team that I see is when the opponent is able to counterattack quickly and from what I see this is still their weakness this season. Inter Milan is not so fast in counter-attacking and usually also relies on short passing patterns from one player to another, so the potential for defense and quick counterattacks might be a good strategy to deal with Man City.

I am thinking about Jose Mourinho's strategy that will be implemented by Simone Inzaghi, but how far will they be able to withstand the attacks that will be carried out by Man City, considering that almost all lines of Man City have the same strength and even when Haaland is unable to score there are always options from players Others will take on the role.
980  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: May 25, 2023, 05:17:00 PM
Manchester united needs 1 more win to lock in the champions league zone for next season and it looks like they will win today's game against chelsea at Old Trafford. The record for meeting the two of them has actually not run smoothly over the past few seasons because both of them very often get draws rather than win against each other. Is it possible that today the Red Devils can break the series meeting record and if they manage to win then Manchester United will be able to step into the Champions League very safely.
For this match I will not rely on the meeting record because considering the conditions of the two teams are very different in the second half of the season. Personally I don't see the game ending in a draw as Chelsea are in their worst form of the season and they have struggled for a win in their last game, despite falling short and were only able to win one game in their previous five. Man United's chances are far greater to win the game, while Chelsea are really under pressure because they have to face two much better clubs in the remaining two matches.

One more victory will ensure that Man United advances to the Champions League next season and finishes third in the standings because their last game will face Fulham. Waiting for confirmation of the line-ups that will be installed by the two coaches for this match and I bet Man United will win the game with a one goal difference.
