Re: the best books you've read on money and investing
by

 If you are Trying to read about a book on money go for a book on practical ways to work it out. My best combination is a book on negotiation and persuasion, I don’t know where he got it from but it was my friend that is successful in what he does that told me about this.
The best book on persuasion I have read is The psychology of persuasion by Kevin Hogan, truly if you read this book you will be able to persuade people to doing what you want or find a perfect balance where you are the person can both win, it is really a powerful book from page one to the end and lots of real examples where sited so it is a very practical book I highly recommend it.

Then on Negotiation I haven’t read much but Never spilt the difference by Chris Voss is more than a book it is a book you can use in different areas of your life. I have practiced something I learnt from this book and it was
great.

The psychology of Persuasion and Never spilt the difference are popular so it should be easy finding them.

Hhampuz is obviously a fair campaign manager from what I have studied about his campaign, this is my first opportunity at a signature campaign and I am happy he has given me this opportunity, but the list of my mentor or people that has contributed to the forum and over a dozen, won’t I be spamming if I create a thread for them about their birthday. If I do this and every member start doing that here will be a birthday wish board. I have already created a birthday wish message I will be sending to his pm I think he will appreciate that.

Re: When gambling what do you measure? Luck or chances?
by
Joy_learns_crypto
on 23/07/2025, 20:31:32 UTC
What's usually your pick as a gambler since sometimes some persons are luckier than others?
Luck doesn’t choose people, people just find luck, you may be lucky today and not lucky tomorrow and I may be unlucky today and very lucky tomorrow, when ever you find luck make sure you don’t think you are special or gifted because you probably will lose all your wining
So when gambling on games like slot I measure chance because you found luck, you did not do anything special it just happened my chance but if I am gambling on sport betting I measure prediction which goes hand in hand with luck. It’s complicated but what I will want to stand firm on is that if you win you aren’t special.

Re: Ensuring generational wealth
by

on 22/07/2025, 20:42:27 UTC
I hear a lot of young people wishing they can build generational wealth for their kids. The kids of their kids and the kids of their kids' kids. But is it really up to us? We can build wealth now and leave all our assets to our kids but how can be sure they can protect the wealth and make it grow even more?
What I want for myself is a rich, sweet relaxed life for myself and for my kids. What ever I leave for them is up to them to make something for themselves and their kids, my kids will have to think for themselves and if they can’t learn from how I am living my life then they will have to learn from their experience.
If I happen to establish something that grows I can only hope they keep it going to the generations after them, do not connect your achievements to what your kids will do with what you build for them.

Re: Have you been addicted to gambling in the past.

I have not been addicted to a certain extent bas eon my personal feelings, except otherwise if some have noticed that in me which i don't seem to understand or know, sometimes it do occur to us that we are doing something wrongly without knowing or even observing to see what others may have to say, hence we should also now take time to review about how we have been gambling, this evaluation will help us to know whether we are on the right track or not in gambling.
I only feel I am doing something wrong in gambling not knowing when to stop. I have grown discipline in gambling and i congratulate myself for that.
Gambling is fun for me because I don’t live off gambling. When you live on your proceeds from gambling you will become addicted to gambling very fast.
Also what helped me is gambling with people who are also interested in gambling with discipline anytime I am stepping out of line they can call me to check and I can also do the same for them .

CoinDCX hit by criminals
by

on 22/07/2025, 14:33:51 UTC
CoinDCX is a cryptocurrency exchange based in Mumbai, India and according to https://www.business-standard.com/amp/markets/cryptocurrency/coindcx-joins-list-of-the-biggest-crypto-breaches-in-recent-times-125072200942_1.html CoinDCX was attacked and around $44 million was stolen. According to the article CoinCDX claimed they account that was attacked does not hold any client funds that I was just an internal account meant for liquidity operations for their partner exchange.

This is not the only case of attack where exchange lost millions of dollars and a paragraph in the article you can read that tracking stolen funds like this still remains challenging as this attackers has various options to launder this funds and remain untraceable.

You may or may not have your cryptocurrency on CoinCDX but news like this should call to your attention that you exchanges are still in dangers and as in this case the exchange are absorbing the whole loss but in other cases their clients could bare some loss.

You can not always know the time when these attacks can happen on an exchange so do not be obstinate about not leaving your cryptocurrency on any exchange.

If you addicted to gambling and want to stop that addiction then you don’t need another thread for that because such thread has been made. Amongst the many I have already gotten some
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5548999.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5549901.0

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5547532.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5545304.0

My advice is if you ever feel you are getting addicted to gambling you may bend to talk to a companion or a professional, it can also help spending time with your spouse or relations, and if you think gambling is your problem then you should quit it but if you are the problem and not gambling you can become disciplined henceforth.

Throughout the season, I hope to bring some updates to make this thread more dynamic. I look forward to everyone's participation.
You don’t have to worry about making the thread dynamic. The Portuguese league is always entertaining every week. I will place the Portuguese league ahead of French league because of the Portuguese league competitiveness.
Benfica, sporting cp and FC Porto are the possible favorite to win the league but every game in the Portuguese league is not a walk in the park for any team.

Re: How quickly do you forget a loss
by
Joy_learns_crypto
on 21/07/2025, 16:35:46 UTC
Why we should forget about our loss(es)? I would prefer to say that it is better to accept the loss than to forget the loss.
Loss can be used as a reminder for our future or upcoming gambling session, so I will not try to forget it because once I can accept the loss then it is already fine for me.
If we should forget our loss while we are gambling frequently which means that we will have more losses the how many times we should try to forget those losses?
If you also look at it from another angle, if you don’t forget your losses it might cause a trauma in your mind and anytime you think about it you can begin to getting the feeling of fear. Not forgetting your losses can cause you to doubt your own prediction ability and you may start not trusting your own judgement.
In gambling I will choose to forget my loss so that I can have focus on the future games I will be playing without having to feel the trauma of the previous games I lost.

Re: Investment is for everyone
by

I remember someone who couldn't afford a land at the city center but wanted to invest. He bought it at a rural area where he could buy over 1 acre. Not long after, the government decided to build a Federal university in that locality. Right now, a plot of land there can buy a plot of land in the city center that he couldn't afford, that is the power of investing.
Your friend is lucky, many people can do the same investment and there would be no government university build or anything that can give the land value, there are more people like you friend they made this investment and 10 years on they are living to regret it.
When trying to invest in land do so knowing that there are already things in place that will give the land value in the future.
Investment is for everyone but you need to see the opportunities, if you see that opportunity in you then you invest in yourself, build knowledge, if you see that opportunity in a trusted person then invest in them. Capital is a factor in investment fit where you capital will be suitable and invest.

I think you ALWAYS are going to remember big games that you lost your ass on, but in general if I lose a bet I am over it by the next day. Refocus and keep your mind on the next game you are looking at, no need to stay upset and ruin the rest of your day.
[/quote]
I don’t know if I am the only one that feels that way but forgetting a game lost is easier said than done especially if good money was staked and the game was close to becoming a win. I understand that you should not let the game control and I don’t do that but as a human I must feel a level of pain when I lose a bet, I take a little break and hope that my next game plays out well because a win always helps me.

Do not let a win be an antidote to your losses in gambling, it is very dangerous because you may be chasing recovery. I only lose small amount of money instead and I do not feel like I lost the amount of money because I can afford to lose it. If you are not feeling like this while gambling, that means you may be using high amount of money to gamble.
I can tell you that win is not an antidote to my losses but when ever I win after a big loss I feel better, you can also tell me that it is not but when you win after a big loss you will also feel better. I will not have to hide or act like a win after a loss won’t give me a very big feeling of happiness. But like I said I don’t let my loss determine my next move. After a loss I don’t get emotional or start to let it control me. But no one will deny that a win after a loss don’t help them feel better.

How quickly do you forget a loss

⭐ Merited by Merit.s (1)
There is no gamer that will say they haven’t lost a game at anytime. We have our different staking abilities, I am referring to what you consider your high staking power. Last season was my best season in sport gambling but I had days that i had bitter losses.

I will like to know how quickly do you forget a painful loss and bounce back. I hate losing and after a big loss I will be frank I don’t forget it immediately although I don’t let it define my next game but it takes a while for me to forget a big loss and the best way I forget about a loss is how fast I can have a win in my subsequent games. A win is like an antidote to my sadness after a loss. So how fast do you forget a loss and what can help you in forgetting about it.

All this does not matter. Your personal survival is yours to fully understand and share with your clicks. Many people’s reasons for not getting involved in cryptocurrency in 2017 could be they did not get the information, some did but felt it was a scam, some got but did not have the capital to spare for it.
Telling your life story is going unnecessarily emotional about the whole thing and same way people who have bought bitcoin in 2017 and did not make it till now is the same way people who did not buy but aren’t around anymore. If you see a clear opportunity and you have what it takes to go for it then make that move.

Re: 2025 Ballon d’Or Prediction thread
by
Joy_learns_crypto
on 19/07/2025, 21:01:41 UTC
I think the cards are stacked in Ousmane Dembélé's favor. He deserves it for all his achievements, although I have another player I'd like to see there, and that's Vítor Ferreira. I don't think Lamine has achieved enough to deserve a Ballon d'Or. I think there's just media overvaluation going on here. Maybe he'll do better in the future, since he's young and has promising talent.

Agree with everything you said here. When you look at the season PSG just had, it has to be Dembele or Vitinha.

There’s no way it can be Yamal. He is probably the most talented out of those three, with the highest ceiling but he was not better than them this season.
The only reason why Dembele is widely regarded over Yamal is because he won the Uefa champions league. But is the Ballon d’Or award giving based on that? PSG will go as far as they did with many top strikers in Europe but Barcelona will not be the same without Lamine Yamal. When Barcelona needed a hero in games that was almost lost everyone looked at the then seventeen year old Lamine Yamal and more time than not he delivered them.
It’s Yamal for me, Barcelona were so unlucky to have missed out on a place in the final, the match would have been a very big deciding factor in the Dembele and Yamal ballon d’Or rivalry.

Nigeria be like a ship with many sinking hole, it will take a lot of time to patch it all up but Cryptocurrency can be a life line for the ship to stay afloat for a long time while other areas are under work.
This sounds ambiguous. How can cryptocurrency be a lifeline in this context?
If our country be developed country or country way Dey even give development a chance then it would be ambiguous. But Nigeria is already in shambles, nothing is working, the economy is down and under, hope is something we can only dream off, yes Cryptocurrency can be a lifeline for a country like ours that has nothing to cling on yet. Cryptocurrency has helped El Salvador so it fit also be our lifeline if we can harness the energy, opportunity and power.

Re: Visited physical casinos to have real life experience and guess what?

You might think that since it is a physical casino everything would be in real time and you may think that is should be fair compared to the online casino.
Physical or online they are still all programmed so it does matter if you are in a physical casino shop or you are online. By the way safety is a key component in me preferring online casino. After a win the place that I think can keep me anonymous is the online casino gaming.
Also time factor, I prefer to play a gamble anytime I want but offline I may not want to be out late so online casino gambling is perfect fit for me.

Re: what is your biggest bet in BTC?
by
Joy_learns_crypto
on 18/07/2025, 21:20:51 UTC
If you had the composure to place a bet with that huge some of bitcoin you might have also used a sum close to that and won. That’s gambling, I know this thread is about the highest money lost on a single bet but it will create the wrong signal. In sport betting I know people who stake high and they lose something but they make it up when they win because it is usually big.
My biggest loss in gambling is $1500 in bitcoin and that really hurt so bad, but I tried it again the next day and I made it all up since then I haven’t tried gambling with that sum of money again.
