181  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.

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.

Well I checked on this coin Kin, and it is selling at $0.00002006 with marketcap around 58 million. I wouldn't say much about it because I don't know about the developers of this project though but I would have wish it is listed in binance to create more liquidity and hype for it this season of bull.

And even though they are not refined to the best standards but it also helps to make petroleum products more available and affordable to the public.



At what rate is it even cheaper to the public with illegal bunkering. Illegal bunkering will not necessarily make the commodity cheaper because dem too go dey chase government price to sell theirs. So na government price go make the price get controlled downward even if the bunkering continue. Na when government sell on reduced rate then demselves go kuku drop their price.

However, apart from say na bunkering, government excuse to dey go after dem na say dem no dey do better fuel and that dey bring adulterated product to the public wey dey explode kill people. Even those wey dey do am too dey under danger. Make government arrange the refinery well make the oil begin drop na that one be number one solution for the matter.
185  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: April 09, 2024, 03:11:51 PM

Beginners should be mature before going into gambling, if you are mature before going into gambling, there are some things you will do in the gambling center that will make people to see you as a wise person by not trying to gamble above your budget

You are probably talking about offline gambling otherwise if you were referring to online, the agent doesn't really concern itself with who is mature and responsible in gambling. Online gambling is more of a faceless system of gambling and no sympathy is felt just the rules that is followed strictly. For offline gambling, you might have some sympathy because it is more like P2P and the agent workers can feel the fears, sadness, Joy from winning, anxiety etc. So like you said you can have some restrictions from friends while gambling on offline but online isn't that way and many online gamblers do it secretly. Therefore, it is better for newbies to start with gambling offline, that should be a learning ground.
186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lottery Fever. What are your range of thoughts in response to Lucky Winners? on: April 09, 2024, 01:42:34 PM
Maybe I was hopeful to win a lottery ticket far back in time not now. Maybe I have become more knowledgeable and wiser to know such winning is not for everybody so I have to treat it with some unseriousness and don't keep my hope on it

In my jurisdiction, there has also been allegation of manipulation of the numbers that will become the winning numbers for the jackpot. Although this has not been proven but it is making the customers have some doubts in their mind.
187  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Most Profitable Businesses in Nigeria as Side Hustle in 2024 on: April 09, 2024, 12:19:56 PM
Someone is likely to profit more if them dey into online business. It is cheaper to run,just your data, it has no maintenance just your phone and you have your freedom.

For now that fuel price is very high ,the business that is very profitable is transportion business a liter of fuel is around 790 in filling station in my area ,if you have enough money to buy new motor bike I believe you will make it ,a drop in town service is not longer 50 naira as we know it before a drop of town service is now 200 naira night 300naira ,which you buy your fuel at 790 you have already gotten 300 hundred out of it ,some distance place you will go to they will pay you more than the fuel you bought at 790 and you will still have more fuel to be used ,I have check and balance it , to transportation business as side hustle is the best.
When you check the price of per liter you charge someone who is going for a far journey,3k with a fuel of 790 it will still take you their and come back before you can now buy another liter ,I'm this case I have check that transportation business is the best in this 2024

Omo no reason am like that oo, make you no go reason transport business from up like that because many things dey involve for the business oo. See as you just dey talk about only fuel and you dey minus and multiply, shey you don put maintenance of the motor? Abi you no go change oil, pass parts wey don spoil? Agbero still dey there, police with their own road block.

Meanwhile, the real rist for the business na about delivery, if you dey do that business and you no sabi am by yourself then you don buy private motor give your follow man because na so so story him go dey knack for your head oo like motor spoil today or I dey mechanic yesterday. So e better make e be say na you dey drive your motor jeje by yourself.
188  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Never assume things, always Validate on: April 09, 2024, 06:58:24 AM
Your point therefore is make people no dey dey hasty in what dey do and make dem still put little effort to try to be sure of wetin dem want do regards to wetin dem hear from hearsay, assume or believe. E make sense.

Sure to confirm things first before acting go really safe person some face, same, apologies because wants you don go act wrongly or take decision wey you no suppose to take because of hearsay wey you never confirm or in your word reinvalidate, omo e fit go cause calamity and na apologies go remain and no be everybody fit just go dey apologize. For some people mind, apology no dey their dictionary, so why make yourself vulnerable to regrets.

Again, e better make we dey hear from both sides before we go take side, very important. This particular one don put people into trouble especially where couples dey involved, husbands and wives suppose to confirm with each other wetin somebody else do before dem go begin act. Like especially some men no dey confirm wetin their wife tell them against a particular neighbor and them go begin carry face or fight the neighbor.

The koko be say we suppose dey put effort to confirm our information before taking decision. We suppose dey patient for certain things and if we get doubt then we can delay the thing and truth go come out. Like for financial matter now, if you delay a scammer, he will not succeed because dem go only catch you if you dey in a haste to collect from them by responding and following what they are saying.
189  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Reasons why we still no dey use E-naira after 2yrs of introduction on: April 09, 2024, 05:46:17 AM
Me go simply say the reason no relate to only Nigerian economy or government abi even the people of naija. The adoption for CBDC still dey at the low rate, how many countries dey even use am like that? The digital version of Yuan self no dey popular like their paper money despite the challenges of bitcoin adoption for there. US self never really look into am, so I think say basically na the issue of adoption. Nigerian government try rush the thing put for people neck onto say dem too stop people from linking and trading btc through banks, so dem want make enaira cover up the digital space but e no work.
190  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Crypto is really helping on: April 09, 2024, 04:49:54 AM

Crypto is really helping, I get friends for school wey no get parents and right from our first year in school they have being paying their fees with the help of crypto, crypto has given a lot of skilled and unskilled individual hope or reason to survive. Crypto is really sweet and amazing because those salary wey company dey pay worker month end in crypto you fit make the money 1 or 2hrs depending na so crypto sweet reach.

I hope na crypto trading you dey talk about  Grin

Those your friends na crypto traders abi them be crypto hodlers because na when you fit trade on crypto or any other commodities you go fit make the kind of profit that you can make as company worker. If you only dey buy coins and keep for your wallet, you no go see that kind of profit oo. So it depends on how skilled wey your friends don become with the trading of crypto and trading no be everybody sabi am because loses still plenty inside trading. But surely if you know wetin you dey do and trade, crypto na more free area wey you get liberty of yourself in every aspect.
191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does prediction in sport work for you? on: April 08, 2024, 04:45:58 PM

In football game which is live, there is no way to have accurate pre match predictions, so for that I don't believe in the Services of all those predictions site's or any other platform that promises such service.

You are right and just recently a friend after doing his own research came up with some nice games to stake on but just before he did that he got distracted by another friend who showed him two games from a predicting website and he fail for it , picked them and added to his originally predicted game that had no influence. Behold after the matches the next morning, he checked the slip and those games from the website, one of it was the reason he didn't win the bet, he lost it. So, it is not all the time that predicting sites give you winning and that is why predicting by yourself is always better and you don't have to subscribe your money when at the end you barely have winning to measure up with your vvip subscription  Grin

Apart from solana, Dogecoin for me has been on steady increase and also stable since last year following the bitcoin volatility. It has really perform to the high and it is going to have a real growth in the bitcoin growth. I also like the stability that cartesi has since it came to the market. These are coins that I expect that will also give investors appreciable profit in the near future.

I don't know what impact that type of gambling will have on the minds of the players but I think that by that tag they want to make gambling available on social media platforms, or they might end up creating a new social media platform for gamblers.

I wonder how they would be able to achieve this where gambling online is what it is even where AI is used I don't think it will achieve that feel of physical socialization as it is felt in offline. To create new social media platforms for gamblers will also play the role of gambling chat rooms and that also does not give that physical touch like offline. I don't see this coming that way of having physical contact for gamblers.
194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Story of my life on: April 08, 2024, 12:20:58 PM
Have you ever noticed or am I the only one?

A gambler may be his own enemy. If you gamble reasonably then you are free from such thinking


The more active I become with gambling, the more it drags me back, luckily I keep risking only what I want to lose.


You are probably gambling with all your intention to get profit, chasing your loses and struggling to survive with gambling. When you left that style of gambling and had a free mind to it probably enjoying the bet then you reason properly and stake rightly. Don't gamble as you can not bear.


The less active I become with gambling, the more positive it gets for me, not most of the time but my results are simply better than when I was very active.


You got less active and started thinking rightly and that will positively influence your analysis and of course you will do better than chasing your loses.


It's like the casinos are wired to mess with the most active gamblers. I don't know, so far I can only find someone who has seen such before.

Casino has no business with messing with you being active , afterall you have not said you were winning big  Grin Casino may have house edge to be more profitable because you are playing a lucky base game and probability of your losing will be higher than your winning and those loses will naturally go to the casino. So casino doesn't have to mess with active player except you think you are being manipulated.


A friend who lives far away from me has also said the same, he got tired of gambling because it wasn't going his way but when he started talking it less seriously, that's when he started to get positive results.


He probably started gambling the right way like you  Grin

betting on these platforms, horse racing, and cock fighting is very exciting there's a lot of noise and shouting that adds up to the excitement our folks here are regular to these platforms, this is their regular weekend habit and its been a tradition for many years here in our country.

Anyway, it is exciting but in my country horse race is not a common game that you see played on the street side but you can see more of cock fighting in the street mostly by young lads. Horse racing is played in gambling houses or casino not in local gambling place. I enjoy cock fighting and followed people that were organising it around.

You don't gamble horse race in the street, it is dangerous and kids can get injured. However, it can be organised inform of polio game and organized as tournament in a defined area or field watched by spectators and it is a festive game.
196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is lack of proof a problem for you or not? on: April 08, 2024, 05:39:47 AM

So a casino being regulated does not really protect you from the possibility of being scammed, and at best it will just decrease the chances of this happening to you.

Yes being regulated is a protection already but if the casino eventually scam then it is not the fault of the player, no one will blame the player for not being careful because he has done the right and expected thing to be protect his money.

If a casino that is regulated get to scam their player then it is the duty of the regulatory body to retrieve the scam money from the casino because they must have known the contact of the casino through the contract that was signed. They also would have some money that the casino keep out with them before they are allowed under their regulation and control because that is part of what regulation is. You will not be under regulatory body whilst they won't have some advanced money under the regulatory body, this is my believe. However, it is still better to play under a regulatory body than playing with a casino that is on its own.

I'm in profit on almost any crypto casino.


If you want those that could be interested to take the risk of you scamming them, you have to post some prove here for them to at least see what you have won for yourself and scrutinize it before they pay for your advise on your telegram but I doubt newbies will fall for this. These days things as this don't work that you have to only send people to your handle, no. Show prove of what success you have made.

7. There are times when ending a relationship is a positive step rather than a negative one.

They say a broken relationship is better than a broken marriage. So while dating, if you find what you can not tolerate, you can let the partner know about it maybe they would change from it or not and if they don't, you are at liberty to move to next person and until you have seen where you are going.


8. Spend some time alone. You'll learn a great deal.

Sometimes people don't stay alone because of some boredom and trying to be involved in certain things that they will be committed into trouble and regret.

199  Other / Politics & Society / Re: DNA and paternity fraud on: April 07, 2024, 03:07:10 PM
Apart from the points that you have listed including infidelity, there is another major point that causes paternity fraud and that is: Money and being financially comfortable.

Some women actually consider somethings as the financial strength of the man to another whom they are sleeping with and can choose a wrong man as the biological father because he has financial strength and that they consider him to be able to take care of her children. This happens even in marriage where the woman is double dating against the husband.

However, the real test is for couples or people who are having issues with paternity to go for DNA test.
200  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stopping the curse of losing streak? on: April 07, 2024, 11:29:19 AM
Well taking break and choosing to play another game work for you but only one works for me and that is to take a break. Usually trying to go into another game after a losing streak won't give a really balanced state of mind because you already having losing mentality that you are fighting to move out of which is the original reason of going into another game, so there is the possibility of chasing those loses back. Maybe you are lucky to have won immediately after changing into another game but to stay away as taking a break does more nerve balancing for me.
