I am not that greedy in fact I think that I have to become more greedy because I am spending to much money, not only on my self.
When possible I also spend money on friends and family but I should need to stop with that because if not it will prevent me from saving.

This hard lesson I have learned after lost good amount of money that going with balanced policy is best. You can be good as long as greed doesn't come near you. Now I can say that I'm not greedy anymore. I have radically changed my gambling style now I am with +ve balance and have peace in mind as well.
Every gambler who goes with greediness, will definitely learn a good lesson from his gambling.
Because, no gambler will be successful with his greedy at the end of the day. Because your greediness will push you go for gambling again and again. Only a lesson will be the benefit at the last round of gambling.

You know that greedy are the reason why some people broke because of gambling?
Being greedy only will make you in negative profit and lost it everytime.
For me noone can control about this greedy, and everyone are greed enough to lost .

xP Sometimes I'm like that if I start losing. Did you manage to make any money with the ICO you did ? How well did the tips for bets/pridictions go for you ?
I'm glad you have gained some insight. As long as you have learnt something and you are moving on it should be fine Smiley

I have lost money on ICOs and I had the opportunity to make some real money but iW as too greedy when I needed to sell. It's always the same problem for me, I wait too much time to sell and take profits. What I have learned is, the only thing worth holding long term is Bitcoin, the rest of the crypto stuff is just not worth the stress of a long term hold, as long as you see nice profits I would sell.

ICOs especially Bitcoin ICOs are almost very very risky. The only successful ICO was maybe Ethereum. There was also some Bitcoin startup ICOs which all turned out to be scams.

Even real stock type of IPO are risky also. Look what happened after the Facebook IPO.

Make a planning if you want to gamble your money to avoid being greedy.
Like if you reach 20% of your deposit , withdraw it to your wallet ASAP (this make you avoid from being greedy).

thats good idea, but talking is more easy than doing it. Maybe when you already profited 10%, you'll lose your money when you want to reach 20%.
Or you can "all in" your bet with 90% chances on dice game . And roll 2 times.
After that if you win all your bet , withdraw it to your wallet ASAP (only take 2 rolls to achieve your goal)

What I can suggest is never use that kind of strategy to get your profit because that kind of strategy is really the risky strategy ever that can busted all of your bankroll in instant, may be it looks like 90% chance of winning but you need to remember there is still house edge which is you have a lower chance to win so I would think twice before use that trick to get that profit though

Nah we all get greedy like that its part of being human. Just as long as you learn from it. It makes us feel invinsible when we win too much then we think it's ok to make many high bets like it is a sure thing but it is not and we lose all.

I think Maidsafe had an ICO too and the price went up a lot. Of course it has not reached full potential yet, and it has crashed a bit, but I think people that hold Maidsafe for longer will get better results.

After the Ethereum and Maidsafe ICO's I have not seen any better ICOs worth risking BTC over.

I not very greedy but little bit greed is in human nature so do I am. Sometimes I fail to cash out the opportunities and other times fail to read the situation under greedy sentiments. Recently because of greed after winning good amount in very first bet and tried again and lost all. I am trying to control my greed to be able to remain in for long in gambling by learning to be happy with small profits.

It depends on my mood at the moment I'm gambling. Most of the time I can stop before losing more than $2-$3 but sometimes I'm trying to recover the losses although I know that's a stupid thing to do. I lose more at that times, but fortunately not many anyway.

I am a bit greedy especially when it comes to Bitcoin because I do not like spending them at all because of the fact that they are worth allot of money.
But I think that that is normal if you want to make extra money.

Wanted to know how greedy people actually are , I'am personally not into gambling with the real meaning to be honest
however I see a lot of my friends says "im stupid" and stuff like that , because they start earning a lot on the begining then they get greedy and lose basically all , does it happen to you ?

At the first, I don't like gambling.
But once I know bitcoin, I have no idea how can I like gambling. And yes for a certain time, it give me joy of winnings.
Because my greedy, I'm loss at the end. But I've learned those experienced for stop being greedy for gambling and I'm glad I'm not too addicted on it

That was good to know. Greediness is always there in gambling and we can't really avoid it. And it is a good thing you learn from your mistakes. As early as you can. Me too I am not also addicted in gambling yes, i gamble but not too much because I know how to control myself. Smiley

Good point, it could stop the greed in gambling can have an impact on you will experience addiction. All things based on mindset and calculations. Will definitely have an impact either, I hope everyone can do it

Mood can play a big part in losing a lot gambling. You get  worried and scared and want to make your losses back  as soon as you can and you end up waging through a lot of your principle in order to chase after losses. You mood will effect how you thinking and feeling at the time and it may casuse you to be really reckless.
