Surely I can't tell you to take a break or not, but if you notice that you have been lucky lately and you want to give a try to gamble more then I think you should, and see when you luck stops to shine then you call it a quit. But mind you when you lose once, just stop and don't gamble anymore as your goodluck may turn bad.


Sometimes you just need to follow your instict and don't wait for people to give you a go ahead oder because they might discourage you. You should be the best teacher of yourself and not others masking decision for you.

If a person has invested in Bitcoin for Long and has a sizable portfolio but don't have other sources of income, such person can withdraw his profit and diversify into other business that will bring forth more money to still reinvest in Bitcoin or to be useds for other expenses. For the aspect of using Bitcoin profit to Carter for needs, Bitcoin should be an investment for future purpose and not for catering  of needs except there is no other way to siuce out income.

All the points you made here are a valid one, should be taken into consideration. I know it will sound funny to many but that is just exactly what people are doing. Especially the number 2 and 3, both has summarized 1-4. It's quite funny how people remove money from Bitcoin tyo invest in altcoin hoping to become rich from it. I just guess this are newbie or ignoramus.

Welll i get your point mate, but you should understand that here is a place with divers people from deferent part of  the world who view things in different perspective, so you can't expect everyone to reply politely to a question when asked. There must surely be some set of people that bully or criticize other people for anything they say. So it will be nice fort anyone here to bear it in mind that he or she must grow a thick skin to withstand the atmosphere of the forum. Here iOS like a jungle, survival of the fittest. And you know what that means.

everyone is looking for the money and in the society anyone without money has no respect, as of now the ultimate goal here on earth is to serve God then secondly is the goal to pursue money, as money is a necessity of life. people dont care how the money is made if they overlook people honor and loyalty.  football is a business just like other businesses. and anyone can take a decision by leaving their current club and going to a well paid club without minding the effect it wall cause to the team they are leaving. everyone is looking for an opportunity while they are still young and  useful. if that stage has passed, such opportunity may never come. it also gives the player the opportunity to discover the best in them and being recognized by the world

actually it may or may not be possible this year end, i have deliberated this in deferent thread that bitcoin is volatile and unpredictable which means anything can happen but am not certain of $150k by the end of this year, but $150k is less of the expected price but we hope for bitcoin to be positive by the end of the year.

you are really funny dude i think you should speculate a more reasonable price. we all know that bitcoin can not hit $250k this year even by next year we are not even certain.

i prefer gambling alone even though there is fun gambling with other people. there is privacy in gambling alone. it makes you to be focused in making prediction on like when with friends. it avoid enviness and jealousy from friends. it protect you from risk of people spreading your habit across the environment. because most guys can stake heavily and lose in private place without anyone knowing, but when with friends, if such amount is lost they will bully you or spread the news of your failure, and amount stake at lost t to the community. this will somehow ruin your reputation in the neighborhood. that is why private gambling is good.

surely there is an amount a gambler can afford to lose. this amount is usually am amount that when spent, it doesn't feel like anything has left you. for example if you  bet $1 game on an accumulative game of 500odd and lose, it will not be effective as a game you stake $1000 for 2 odd and lose. i think when they talk about an amount a gamble can afford to lose is this type of compearism. although i know that no amount is a waste or too small, but in this case of $1000 and $1 it is surely nothing.

i understand the point, but the fact is that if a gamblers lost, he may think about the potential return instead of the bet amount itself. but when he come into realization that he lost a small stake instead of big stake, he will use that to console himself. and secondly those gambler who does that are the type that put so much hope on a game yet to play. if not on a norms a gambler is not suppose to put his mind on an outstanding game that is yet to play, as if he is sure its going to play

We all know that Bitcoin is a speculative asset, so there is no point beating your chest as if you have a prove that it will hit $150k. Bitcoin will do fine before the Q4 of this year and I am not optimistic about the price by then, but we may see a reasonable price.

i largely agree with you on this, gambling is all about risk, so being too much careful of making selection may result to becoming confuse of which team to select. but taking the risk and letting go of some stress and chilling off will be the best thing to do. most times risky game are more likely to even play than a more careful game prediction.

funny enough i once played an odd game like that,  about 3 to 4 games of high odd which i knew it is not possible to win, that if it can win will be by luck, but the result surprised me because 3 out of the 4 played and 1 cut my ticket. so such risky games can play but its hard to see such wining.

to me there is nothing professional in gambling than predicting a possible outcome, and wining is repeated back to back. or a person that predict at least %80 of games and the result is visible. a professional must be able to do something exceptional that others find difficult to do easily.

of course those people that are pointed as professional gamblers has past records of prediction of more possible win than lose.

according to your question that what has peer pressure made me do? answer: it made me me to participate in what ever event any of us had, and we where into playing games together drinking alcohol and all that. but the one funny thing about life is that nothing is  permanent in life. as we grow up we start having different mindset and traveling to find greener pasture, making it possible to separate from each others. so talking about how to overcome it is very easy. because you have already said that this often happen between teenagers of 10 to 14 years meaning that it can never last forever because when you are a man you can be able to take decisions on your own and not being forced. so maturity of taking personal decision or traveling from your current location can help overcome it.  right now most of my peer groups are all married , so how can we keep doing those things again why we have responsibilities to cater for? it is very easy my friend.

becoming rich is easy to say than done. we all hope to become rich but the question is who is ready to pay the price the rich does? i believe we all once hoped and expected it till date even as we have not yet become one. to be rich requires to first have the mindset of a rich person then putting it to work. but if we dont put it to work then dream will become wishes.

working in a country that is stress free in their modules operandi, does no make you rich, or makes life comfortable for you. as a matter of fact working for a company is even a way of slowing down your capacity in most cases. self employment is more important to me than working in some company that claims to do better for you while milking you quietly.

i cant really tell if life has changed as i thought due to the current economic situation in my country, but i am doing better than before.

i feel secure even though there is hardship in the economy. but the fact is that i dont totally depend on the economy for everything.

of course everyone needs more money and will need time as well but that of having more people is what i dont think its necessary, i prefer to have less friends with good impatation than more frends with less or no trust or impactation.

Yeah that one fit be true but no be everybody dey into trading or gambling but some. Some dey into other physical investment wey dem dey do to make money, And no necessarily be trading or gambling

Exactly my point. That is why person no sopos put am for consideration at first because this same thing don wreck a lot of our young 9ja people, and Dem dey even struggle to comot insider, so I no fit even advise person to try am.

Me I no dey that line o because I no how risky e dey. If na Bitcoin investment e for better but Trading or gambling I no fit advice my follow person to do am considering the risk wey dey involved except say the person fit bear the risk.

The truth of the matter is that you can not completely rely on exchange for the sake of bank frustrating you. Don't forget too soon that keeping money in exchange is also completely a risk because you don't have full access to that fund. Exchange according to how the name implies means centralized exchange (CEX) Meaning you don't have total control of your coins. You don't have privacy because if anything should affect that exchange, it directly affects your fund. Instead you should prioritize decentralized (dex )over cex. Because it deals with privacy. And secondly you don't make use of the seed phrase in exchange rather the exchange has the seed, while you make use of passcode.

I understand your point or the angle you are driving at, although it may be true that most countries that have laws
Protecting their ppl players to Gamble in those area does given them the privilege to gamble above other countries. Don't be even surprised that a country that has a regulation that prohibits it's citizens from gambling may even be higher in population when it comes to Gambling. You never can tell though but you are just guesting without a real fact. It's just like saying that those that are rich can gamble as they like because they have the money, without knowing that a poor person may even gamble higher than a rich man because he want to make money by all means and doesn't care how much he is able to spend to make the money. While in other hands the rich may be very careful not to lose his wealth to Gambling and or betting.
 

Being excessively rich does not mean that a person can not go broke trying to gamble and thinking there is no risk. As a matter of fact you even need to be more careful when you are rich because the higher the money the higher the moral to increase your bet at once. Just ask oshosondy has asked you that haven't you seen the rich becoming broke? Yeah actually most rich men become broke as a result of gambling and they never know gambling could brought them down because they thought the amount they have can not get exhausted little did they know that greed can make a person deployed a martingale theory and lose all within the twinkle of an eye. so gambling should not be underated despite the money you have as it can ruin you.

This is a very important question, and many people who want or wish to transfer wealth to their next generation need to ask themselves before giving it a second thought. We can see in the society today that a lot of children has lavished all their assets passed to them as inheritance due to lack of financial management. And this should be put into consideration. A wealth without a good plan for who next to succeed it, is equal to a waste effort or waste wealth. I watched a movie recently where a rich man told his children that his going to will all his property to the orphanage home, Simply because his children don't know the worth or value of money due to the way they spend his hard earn money. He told them that until they begin to work for their money and know what it feels like to make money for themselves without his wealth, only can he change his mind to will his property to them. So there is a lot of kids without proper knowledge of how to manage finance. and they go broke too quickly because they are not rich in mindset.

Honestly I think this is the best thing to do for them, otherwise you will train bollars that will blew up all your investment that took you lifetime to secure.

I don't even think that all fat people are food consumers or simply the amount of food they eat is the real cause of there situation. Most of them have natural fat in them and no matter how less they eat they still find themselves getting fats except they do some walkout or go to the gym to burn some calorie, otherwise they will still get fat.

That's actually true, men Worth are measure on humility and self respect coupled together with money and not their body. A man that that is fat could just be natural as well as the woman in some cases but majority of fat men is as a result of being a foody type.

It may not necessarily be that something is wrong with them but just a natural phenomenon. But of course some have problem. Sometimes women when not married they will keep to fit to get a man attracted but after getting married they no longer think of  talking care of their body because they thinks it's no longer important afterall they are married. Some develop this body after given birth.. So the case is that woman are liable to get fat easier than men because they have so much  hormonal changes than men.

Scammers has been around for a long term now and most people has been falling victim expecialy the newbies but not to the experience people. I have received some guys who has already received a red trust sending me pm to buy an account trying to drag me to telegram where I can fall prey but I knew who they are and I decided not to respond them. I just ignore them. The best way to free from the is just to ignore them. But I'd they persis to disturb you then you can report to admin as finding Nemo has suggested, as that could be a possible solution.

I don't think alcohol is the only thing that has ads nationwide, gambling ads are everywhere. maybe I am the only one seeing it, but if you take a close look, you will realize that gambling ads and alcohol are everywhere. I don't know about your country but in country I even notice gambling ads more often than alcohol.

I don't know why you keep emphasizing on alcohol in comparison with gambling, but if we want to throw more light on that, we can also relate that in gambling shop, it is stated that
1 gamble with your spear money.
2 gambling age is 18 years and above.
3 gamble responsibly

But people often neglect this rules and still gamble, so what then do we call it? So if you ask me, I will say thesame thing applicable to alcohol is also in Gambling. And gambling is even more addictive than alcohol because it involves losing huge amount of money within some minutes of your time.
