These days people don't rely on what they have studied for financial success but they acquire more skills in life and that is what is needed to succeed just like we say to have diversified means of resources is better than having a single source of income. People these days don't rely on just one skill so having economies as a study just gives you the economic knowledge base and you can study any discipline in higher level in masters. There are people who studied second degree after the first degree in a separate discipline.

5. Gambling Community as Support
When things go tough, some people become shy to ask for help and to seek for suggestions. But the more that you are hesitating to reach out, the more that you have to do it. Gambling community such as this forum can help you in various ways.

This is a very good idea for especially newbies. Some newbies hid away from people knowing that they are losing and they keep dying in silence instead of asking for support. You don't stay out from people who have past through the bizarre experience that you are having, you only need to extend your hands by asking for the solution of the gambling challenges you are facing. For instance interms of continuous losses, a gambler need to reduce his wager habit and observe what he is not doing right instead of playing with revenge and aggression by increasing his risk which will lead to further losses. So it is better relying on advise and suggestions of experienced gamblers in the game you wager mostly.
543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 01, 2024, 08:13:03 AM
I don't personally believe in superstitious belief, voodoo, witchcraft and any spiritual help from gambling because those magic things were created by demons based on the holy scriptures depending on our belief. I also found it inaccurate but sometimes it coincides with winnings but yeah I still consider it hitting the luck and no whatsoever. I see people using these things here in my place but they still have nothing to prove as non of them became millionaires through it.

Just like what Solomon said in the bible, vanity on vanity. We have to ask ourselves all those seers and spiritual heads how many are rich or they don't like to be rich or perhaps they don't like to gamble? They could have used the influence of seeing the outcome of matches to bet hugely and hit the biggest jackpots but if this is not happening to them, it is not because they are not trying or whether their children or relatives are not trying but because it all goes back to luck and what will be will surely be. Gambling is you win some and you lose some but if you are bent on winning every time, you are surely going to keep losing.
544  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit. on: February 01, 2024, 07:02:27 AM

Gambling is more like investing in some Altcoins, if it happens to give profits fine and if it doesn't also good but we don't also say we rely on our Altcoins investment to carryout expenses on our cost of living.
I don't agree if gambling is equated with altcoin investment. because altcoins still have clear programs and good management. different from gambling which only relies on the luck factor.
Or is it possible that the altcoin investment you mean here is investing in memecoin?

I think what that means is that altcoins performance is not predetermined maybe like bitcoin that is expected to rise anytime halving is around and the rise of altcoins has to follow suit if at all because some are shit coins so it is that rate of shitcoins that gambling is compared with altcoins. Memecoins are not to be relied on actually like gambling is not to be relied on so when investing on it you have to take the risk you can bear and gamble as you can bear also.
545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Viewpoint of a fan gambling on: February 01, 2024, 05:36:57 AM
Gambling is to win and make some profit from what you have wagered and it is an unreasonable gambler that will go gamble in favour of an unfavourable team even if that is his favourite club, the right thing to do is to stay away from that wager instead of the feeling of guilt to bet against your club.

With the analysis, predictions and bookies odd you should know if your favourite team is tipped to win or not and gambling follows the general feeling and no sentiment, so why bet with sentiment where you know your team is not favoured to win but some gamblers may take the risk afterall it is all gambling, a game of luck but I won't wager blindly. I better stay away from an unfavourable forecast team whether I'm a fan of the club or not.
546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: January 31, 2024, 08:58:29 PM
I will not be surprised if such things happen in gambling but I have not had personal experience on that. I don't know how potent such inquiry will be. Although, the possibilities are still there if people can prophesy about someone future and the things that will happen to them coming to past, so it is also like predicting the outcome of a football match. However, it is still luck based for such football outcome to come to pass and you have to believe something for you to be able to attract that thing.

Your request will not be met here. This is not the board you have to post this to, you can try sending it to service board. But why are you not letting people know what you have for them which will draw up interest for what you are offering.
548  Economy / Economics / Re: Leadership and Economics on: January 31, 2024, 07:40:02 PM

what about you, do you agree with the right leader can make your life as a citizen, businessman or an investor comfortable?

This is not debatable and the citizens know leaders but the problem is that they are short-changed by those in power to influence in power those they know are wrong and won't dance to the tune of the masses but to them the oligarchs, so they keep paying homage, allegiance to them and they keep feeding fat on the economy at the peril of the citizens who suffer the effects which come inform of nepotism, corruption, unemployment, economic hardship etc. These kind of situation are prevalent in third world countries.

A right leader creates environment for businesses to thrive through policy implementation that will encourage business development and economic growth across the people. They create infrastructure that will increase foreign investment and jobs will be created for the teaming youth population and that will indirectly reduce youth restiveness, reduce agitation and insecurity and foster peaceful coexistence between the people.
549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: stop the unnecessary blame on gambling whenever you get unlucky on: January 31, 2024, 07:12:48 PM
It is normal human nature to always try to shift blame when something doesn't go as intended or planned and same thing applies when it comes to gambling. Many a time, when some gamblers lose stakes they end up attributing blame in one way or the other however it is of no use. More experienced gamblers in same situation also feel the pain of losing but accept the fact that they lost.
Refusing to accept the fact that one lost a stake based on your personal decision can cause such person to possibly make mistakes in their next stake making them to lose.

You have classified two kinds of gamblers regarding how they treat their gambling loses, that is the class that admit that they take lost and hope for another day and the class that they shouldn't have made the mistake to lose. So this last set of class are the one that will lose more because they will continue trying and keep blaming themselves for the loses hence will want to try again and vow to themselves not to make sure mistake again but failing to understand that it is not just working for them to win on such days. Those who lose and walk away get properly prepared to win at the next trier.

Disadvantages of politics:
1. The number of your enemies will increase
.

I just want to take one item of those listed and that is discussing the enemies that could increase when in politics but I thought they say in politics there are no permanent enemies but permanent interest. Anyway, for someone who is aspiring to go into politics, they should be fortified and have a thick skin against what people say and the oppositions turned enemies but those at the helm of affairs politically should be straightforward and upright so that the crowd of enemies will reduce but we know enemies are associated with politics but whether it will hamper on the person depends on how deepened the grudges are and what the politicians have done to their perceived enemies.

Follow the right part and be committed to what you are doing. You need to be focused and committed to what you feel or advise that will help you. No be say you go put square peg in round hole and do things haphazardly. You also need to stand firm to your right and no mumu. No gree for anybody no mean say if you dey wrong you go still dey do strong head.
552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2 years old kids alone at home for hours, while the father goes gambling on: January 31, 2024, 12:08:43 PM

I didn't read the whole story, but the wife should either file a divorce or convince her husband to do a rehab to minimize the gambling urges, otherwise there could be something worse than that going to happen next. He might sell the house, car, or anything that has value in the house hold, because he clearly doesn't care about his family. If does really care about his family even with his gambling urges, he could've have asked someone to look over and nurse his children while his gone for several hours in the casino.
I think a divorce should make things work.

I think because you didn't read the story that is why you could suggest divorce. For me I think it is rather hasty to talk of divorce on the situation. You can be suggesting divorce if there are other abysmal and bizarre issues already going on with the couples where one party can prove and provide that the union has broken down irredeemably then they could be talking of divorce but there are none yet to prove they are having issues then divorce won't come me especially if it is the first time he has behaved that way. So I think it is an issue between the couples and nothing to worry about. There are mistakes in life and everyone is capable of such mistake.
553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The scam of FAKE fixed matches on: January 31, 2024, 07:13:23 AM
I believe that match fixing is scam already so I don't focus on that anytime I see that usually on telegram. How do you fix matches when you are feeling the game is fair to anyone. The problem with scam is that they will continue to exist because some greedy people will fall for them. If you are not greedy then if you see match fixing gimmicks you should know. If at all there is match fixing that exist how would that be disclosed for people to bet on it. So we should know that it is just part of the prediction that a match is fixed and they guess the outcome of the match.
554  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: This not the right time to focus on trading on: January 31, 2024, 06:40:00 AM
I no see anything wey dey wrong in trading at a particular time like Op dey talk about this time should only be for hodling, that one no gel. Person wey sabi trade and him see good position to make extra money why not if you believe your trading skill. Whether you hodl for profit or you con trade and get profit, na same thing na. In fact you don diversify your profit potential be that if you fit trade and collect your profit plus additional trading profit, that one make sense na.

The only thing be say if you go fit identify the trend wey market dey. Like during the halving and bull run, you don know say most of your trade entry suppose be to buy because na the trend wey market currently dey or wey trade don form. So for me no be only to hodl during bull you go take make profit but you fit still collect better profit if you sabi trade because trading and hodling no be the same thing, dem be two different things and diversification is good.
555  Other / Politics & Society / Re: RISK TAKERS ARE GREAT MAKERS on: January 30, 2024, 10:51:03 PM

Because our parents where risk takers thats why some of us are graduates.
What genuine risk are you taking today to better the lives of your kids and wards.


Parents are still taking risk for their children and to train them also. The difference is that there are changes that are noticeable from the old times to now and people of these days have acclaimatized with the present environment around them. Most economy is no longer agriculture based but digital and you have to go on with what is happening. People still farm and do fishing but majority of the job is now semi skilled and skilled but just few are still not skilled. So the only thing is to follow the wave of economic challenge which has left the simple ways of life to modern living and parents are changing, moving towards the direction of updating themselves to be employable in this competitive economic system to be able to take care of their children.
556  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Share Your Craziest Experience of The Army? on: January 30, 2024, 09:32:36 PM
Majority of the army are working for the government and against government opposition members, so they are used to arrest civilians, intimidate and molest those the government feel are treat to them into exile. Be careful with them because they are blood freak.

They are used to rig elections and install a candidate that is not the choice of the masses. This is unfortunate that the experience with the army is not fair to the people.
557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think women will make better gamblers by their nature? on: January 30, 2024, 09:15:21 PM
Men or women are the same when it comes to gambling, there's no saying women are better at gambling.
If sports gambling or sports betting, most sports analysts or especially soccer, the majority or even almost all are men, there is no woman who is a soccer analyst. if casino gambling, let alone online gambling, it is the same depending on luck, there is no difference between men and women.

Although you have a point to the extent that you said most soccer analyst are men and that is because soccer is a man's game being that it is physically inclined and what is being done in the female soccer came from men but regards to analysis where you said there is no woman, I disagree to that. There are plenty of women football analyst that talk on both male and female football whether on radio or television. That is a fact well known and even in the officiating, there are female referees and lines men including commentators. Things have changed and women have aligned themselves with the male in so many aspects of life not only in football.

 Gambling has been seen as a very dangerous thing base on some people's point of view here in the forum whereas in reality it has given some people the capital to start what ever business they want to do. My point in this post is that we shouldn’t just paint gambling all black because some people have fail to stick to the discipline of gambling.


There is no doubt that gambling has helped some people step up on the level of financial independence but that is a very small average of people and I believe those who have benefited that way are not addict gamblers, they are reasonable gamblers who got lucky and use betting profit to better their lives. However, the reason that majority of the response try to throw some guide on gambling is because what what they see, withness and even part of the majority that has been losing in gambling. It is normal if you are losing to let others understand that it is not a tea party to make it from gambling because there are gamblers who are expecting to make it through gambling and they need to hear the reality from participants who have also felt that way but unsuccessful.
559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them on: January 30, 2024, 08:11:56 PM
I would choose neither because there is a 3rd option which I feel is even better than those two options and that is taking him/her to a psychologist/gambling addiction group who could help in a big way.

Most people don't easily listen to their family members which is why a third person perspective helps in such cases.

This could be right because familiar faces will not have much effect to the addict who is going to be needing help and moreover, the psychologist is a professional who knows the expert ways to handle such issues instead of self medicating the addict. So bringing in a third party who is an expert is going to be more effective than the usual family members that may not be forceful when it is needed like seizing certain things that enables the addict to gamble but a professional would keep to the professional ethics to achieve his or goals and to get paid as they bargain in the contract.
