141  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The person who can’t control emotions in gambling will never earn money from it on: April 13, 2024, 06:48:41 AM

Its too hard to get positive if you keep seeing your money losing every game.

Yes and that is where the whole talk of emotions come in. Of course if you are playing and getting successful in the game, you will have more balance and phychologically comfortable to think and rethink before predicting the next game that you want to play but in the case where you have been losing then you will be hardly coordinated.

Many gamblers face this emotional challenge because of losing and not because they have been winning. If you are losing, you are almost like losing your mind. I have seen in offline gambling where a loser sweats profusely as if he was going to suffocate and that is because he is thinking about his loses and expecting magic to be done by playing more to win back those lost money. However, it doesn't happen like that. To win back lost money is not easy at least not necessarily that same day, like people say there is always a good day and a bad day. So if you identify a bad day from loses then the person can stay off and expect a good day to pick back your loses, not necessarily your loses but to also have a winning day. If you take recourse to your bad day to win all the loses then it is still a wrong way to gamble. Each day is different with gambling.

If government fit handle this matter like this na be say them fit use this pattern follow businesses way dey accept crypto as payment.

I think say you want even talk about say government go go after those traders wey still dey carry price go high and not about stooping crypto users. I don't know if dem go even fit stop crypto because at several occasions dem don try to stop crypto use for naija, as dem even ban banks to they transacts on with crypto after endsars and even before but people resort to dey do P2P and dem no fit know wetin dey go on.

The point be say make dem handle business people to reduce their prices as dollar exchange rate don dey drop because market price still dey up since dollar Naira exchange don drop and that don become cheating for people wey dey earn in dollar because when price high for exchange rate, you go still buy wetin you want buy because the exchange rate favour that person wey dey earn for dollar.

Hi I won 7 figures on soccer betting over the last few months and withdrew the crypto to my cold wallet, how can I sell this crypto and avoid paying taxes?

I guess you won big and trying to evade paying your percentage of tax to your country which is also a part of your contribution  because of the amount of money to pay but that is not really proper. However, I think the way you can easily avoid that is through P2P. Selling to private persons is usually a way to conceal your transactions from third party to monitor what you have done and likewise government would not know except the casino is regulated by government agency directly where they can demand for winners periodically but if not that, you can sell to private people.
144  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Avoid these crypto investment mistakes on: April 12, 2024, 04:10:26 PM

 • timing the market: This one done really affect many people, way be say them no dey fit hold investment or wait for the right time to invest. This matter way I dey talk so , done make some people sell some kind assets way them suppose hold for maturity too early, and also make some people go buy too early, so make we just allow the market do em thing, because these big moves way we dey find , to be honest, e dey take time.


This one wey you dey talk na wetin dem dey call selling early and I don't know if we go also call am as mistake but for me I no go regard am as mistake oo because at least the person wey sell at a price higher than the price wey him buy the coin don also make profit no matter how much profit wey him make so long as him get ROI from the buying price. So therefore, if you sell early for me no be mistake. It means either the person get need for money or the person dey feel say price go drop for correction and so dem want sell collect the initial profit and then look for another DCA. I don see person wey don dey lucky to dey accumulate coins base on DCA . But if person sell and make profit, that one no be mistake even say him sell early and the purpose fit be for DCA but if him no see lower price to enter again, e no still mean say na mistake but the person no maximize him profit.
145  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Delegate your Income and you'll earn more money on: April 12, 2024, 01:57:40 PM

Once you're at the stage where you can delegate your money to fetching more money for you, your financial growth will automatically start booming in a massive way.

This na sure banker. Na advise wey person go carry go bank. No be lie say nobody wey don make money or wey dey comfortable financially in life wey dey depend only on one source of income. Even people wey dey work 8-5 job must get another thing wey dem go dey manage before dem go even feed well especially for this naija economy. If we check well self, the people wey dey complain too much about this Tinubu government of high inflation na those wey no really get wetin dem dey do as substitute. So e always dey better to have more source of income than relying on just one


you can delegate responsibility


With your money you can do that. Na that money wey go make people give you that respect. And if you invest then you don already delegate work to people. If you don build company and other investment, na people you don give responsibility be that to run na and make returns for you that is delegating responsibility.
146  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 190K in 2024? on: April 12, 2024, 11:30:04 AM

And many prediction models place the future price of bitcoin into 190K.
Is 190K too humble or very generous in your consideration? What's your price plans for selling your holdings?

I think it is not unreasonable to have such prediction for bitcoin at this season of halving. The block reward is going to reduce and that means miners would want to add in price before they sell so it is reasonable that volatility will rapidly start to happen as soon as the block split. I would predict around 150k - 200k . So at the point of slight price above 150k, it is suppose to be time to get ready for drop .

They control all my phones, computers, all smart devices. Their response time is about 150 milliseconds. I have nothing to say. I am not responsible for my actions because I am a brainwashed mule.

Who are those you are referring to? They took your phones, computers and all your smart devices that will help you get online to know what is happening in the world. Who are those people you are referring to? Security agencies or private and secret people causing unrest and kidnapping innocent people? Let us know about this view that you have.
148  Economy / Gambling / Re: What are your expectations for Casino coins in this coming bull run? on: April 11, 2024, 08:23:31 PM
To my view I think betfury is more popular on the forum, they ran a signature campaign here, don't know if any other deed.

Well for the bull run I still believe betfury is going to be part of the promising project, they have been steady in value. However, I don't know of a project that will not bull during the bull proper because volatility will be created in the market but it depends on how many coin will sustain their hype. I would invest in bfg if I should, the price is still cheap and marketcap is still moderate at 58 million.
149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling games that gives you an exciting experience on: April 11, 2024, 03:14:59 PM

 If you look around the gambling center, you will see that sports betting has the highest population because people are creating more time to watch all those games to know the teams that is playing well and the ones that are not playing well.

There is no other sports or game that can be use to compare the popularity of sports talking about football betting. Football is the highest all sports that gather people of diverse cultures and believe into one pitch and not minding the enemity between countries.

It brings people together into one fold that despite war going on and insecurity challenges, the game is one phenomenon that people look at to even have a subtle heart on others, it creates joy and ambience of taking away sadness and forgetting of sorrow whilst the game was on. Fans of different clubs at a point unit to achieve a common goal, a goal of solidarity for their country.
150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Health Benefits of Gambling on: April 11, 2024, 10:34:40 AM
Couple of points I want to highlight for newbies in gambling that makes gamblers not to get the health benefits of gambling is that, if you are doing the wrong approach, that's risking way more than what you can bear to lose, chasing losses, being addicted, you won't feel the health benefits side of gambling because you would likely be in depression due to loses, but if you apply the right strategy, being disciplined and following the rules of, it can relieve stress, helps stops overthinking because of the joy that comes when you must have won a bet, the joy, the happiness especially during when you are watching a game that is going in your favor.

The stress relieving of gambling is also when you are able to win then you can use the proceed to take care of your financial challenges. No person will be stress free if you still have to solve your financial challenges and nothing to do that with. In fact if you are gambling without profit, you are likely to get into depression which is what many losers of huge some get into. So like you said you can not be stress free if you are not profitable in gambling.
151  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: We Regret Voting Tinubu – Northern Elders on: April 11, 2024, 07:40:18 AM
The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has voiced regret over the region’s support for President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election, signaling a shift in political alignment and strategy for future elections.


Forget that one my brother, it doesn't signal any shift. Nigerian politics na about religion and money but religion na dat one top pass, the politics here na the more you look the less you see. You go still see when time for another election go happen and wetin go happen. It is always on the divide of religion and when Tinubu splash trillions their way, them go begin change seat and words


This is just the beginning,una Neva see something


As if the people wey dey talk no sabi say them rig the election. Abi you think say Tinubu no know the side wey him get votes ? The thing be say the way the north think say them go take get influence for the government with shettima but them no dey see am like that. Them think say dem go dey in control of the government while Tinubu is there as an old man.
152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Becomes of Gambling if Sport book is taken away. on: April 11, 2024, 07:04:49 AM

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

Well for the main time that is what it will look like. It will obviously be like clothes were striped of someone and get them naked of something as that should happen.

Although, I know it is an hypothetical question that we are meant to discuss and if that happens, yes casinos will lose popularity for the main time before they begin to restrategize on bettering other games. I think that will even give room to more creativity in the area of sports. Of course it will be artificial and more AI in sports will be introduced.
153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Betting. Why the Distinction? on: April 11, 2024, 05:38:04 AM
This is about the little difference in the kind of mode of the game like in sports, we are talking about teams in competition and so it will be convenient to use betting on for it to say this is what will happen at the end and we attach money to it or a condition to it to be sacrificed by the other gambler especially in offline gambling. But in casino it is more like an individual with the house game and so that is where the difference come as gambling to win the house on the game it has presented. However, the act for both is gambling because they involve staking of money.
154  Economy / Economics / Re: Governments and their irrelevant projects just to steal public funds on: April 10, 2024, 08:52:11 PM

Do we assume it is still one of the money laundering strategies that the government intentionally creates loopholes in other to steal the public funds? Because even after the implementations and execution of Such projects, the same governments clamours that the nation has run out of funds after giving accounts of those irrelevant executed projects.

Like you have rightly observed. If you don't create avenues to do project whether elephant projects or kangaroo type then you won't see loopholes to channel stolen money because they have to write them up in expenses to carry out the job. Government doesn't really have that kind of sympathy for the people, they are majorly interested to feed their pocket before coming down to the people but soonest it will be time for another election. This is the circle of what goes on unfortunately.
155  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Can we ever live in peaceful Coexistence on: April 10, 2024, 04:03:47 PM
Maybe I will have a divergent view towards this but more realistic and factual. So long human is concern in living as group and associating together then peace is a mirage, it is not achievable that in human society that you have total peace, I don't see that to happen. The world conflict has been existing because of the incidence of what it is even in the history of bible, cain was not at peace with Abel as brothers so expecting total peace is looking for what is not in existence. We can only try to settle conflict and reduce the occurrence of it.

There is a reason that there is law and punishment, it is for all to know where the acts that they do belong to.

Never put yourself down that you are not good enough for anything.

Na the full stop be this my brother and e no be for only this forum self, na for every part of human endeavour. I don see person wey no go school but dey write pass people wey get degree. So na only an individual fit tell himself say him no good for anything but once you believe in yourself Omo the sky self no fit be your limit.

E get banks wey no study banking courses but at the end dem adjust into am. For school, some student on their own no even be average learners but of lower than average but at the end dem dey beat even best brains for their class just because dem dey give time to their study, stay library like say tomorrow no dey because dem get target.
157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online casino gambling is more of profit chasers while land base is more of fun on: April 10, 2024, 11:49:33 AM

Both casino platforms promote their platforms as entertainment portals with a chance to make money.


That is exactly. They are all running for profit and having edge above gamblers because both are based on luck whether in guise of fun or not, profit for a gambler is his ultimate reason that he is staking his money and he would do that where he feels his strategy will work more for him. So like you said, behind the entertainment interphase and all the colours on the casino plus seductive pictures of female, they all give chance of making profit.
158  Other / Politics & Society / Re: [Discussion] Family decision towards kids upbringing. on: April 10, 2024, 11:08:30 AM

I came across some wealthy homes when both parents were running this productive financial race to give the kids the best life.

This is not wrong but it has to be balanced. Two parents can't work into the night, it is when you have parents who work into the night then the kids will definitely be nothing equal to useless except with God's grace that one of them can excape being stupid and useless. So parents should be able to balance their activities in the home. One of them should be making himself or herself available after school hour to pick the kids up and take care of them afterwards from school. Being financially okay is good but not to the detriment of the children because if they turn vagabonds it means that home won't have much to be reckoned with.
159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it right to advice other people against gambling for personal reasons like?? on: April 10, 2024, 09:31:45 AM
.

What do you make of this, I honestly do not know but deep inside of me, I feel it's absolutely wrong to advice people against doing something, just because you did the same thing and it did not favor you..


I think rather an adviser should give an insightful reason for his advise. Someone who is to advise somebody else is suppose to be someone who is very knowledgeable in the topic of advise. Like the topic in discuss, if the gambler has made wrong decision which has caused him to lose his life savings then he should surmon that courage to first expose his weakness to his listeners before delving into his advise and also anchor his advise based on his mistake but not to condemn it because of his error.

There will be some of his listeners who are also gambling the way he did but they are luckily winning and not getting into same problem that he had found himself in, so if he had given the right kind of advise which should be in two ways as to cause and effect then those who are gambling same way he did would benefit maximally from his advise. But now they are only getting one sided advise, meaning they are also likely to fall in his shoes soonest.

Gambling is profitable and you also run into loses but if you are a responsible gambler, you will know your fault and accept it any time you lose.
160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you achieved anything from gambling on: April 10, 2024, 08:57:48 AM
One think that is important to note about gambling winnings is that it money goes away as fast as it comes if you are not careful about it and being careful about it is not to keep it with you without using it for something tangible almost immediately because you will end up giving aid and money to friends to celebrate on your win especially if you have won big.

The lesson therefore is to use the money on a tangible project that you will always remember. You don't have to always keep the money with you in expectation of saving it but you can reinvest it either in crypto or estate. I have not won big but those that I know that have successfully used their big winning immediately started disbursing it out for challenges they were needing money for.

Betting winnings are good support for capital and as soon as it gets to you, you don't need to waste time on using it for something meaningful. Don't save betting winnings because you will end up using it to gamble again.
