It is clear that healthy gamblers and bettors will never ruin their reputation because of gambling. They will always stick to the truth and defend their principles.
And addicted players are not principled, they are ready to lie and keep silent about their true opinion, and also pretend. Both in front of relatives and strangers, and this is terrible. A gambler healthy from addictions will not try to win back, he will simply say: "Well, then the casino is not the thing where I can achieve great success."

The economic recession isn’t due to a lack of money in the market, but because the poor have no money. Essentially, the money isn’t circulating; it’s all been stuck in the banking system, turning into deposits and low-risk assets. No matter how much money the rich have, their consumption is still limited.
On the other hand, the poor want to spend but have no money, which gradually leads to excess production capacity in the market. This causes companies to start competing in a race to the bottom, driving profits to dangerously low levels, which sets off a vicious cycle. As company profits decrease, they scale back and lay off employees, making the poor even poorer, and savings become too risky to touch.

The central banks of countries, as well as their governments, see the situation very well when money does not circulate in the economy, and after that the key rate of the Central Bank is lowered.
Of course, as a consequence of lowering the key rate, loans for businesses and the population immediately become profitable, therefore all processes within the state are accelerated: purchases are made and incentives for spending money are stimulated.
Also, loans for apartments and cars are becoming profitable, which is why people who previously did not have enough money are starting to buy these goods on credit.
First of, I just think that many people are playing slots games online and even sports betting is majorly online now because people are no longer limited to information or the online gambling platforms and sports books. Even in my country, online gambling is very popular now but still, many people visits the land based casinos. In my country, there are some clubs that has casinos and there's no night you will visit there without finding multitude of people there, meaning that both offline and online gambling is still booming.
However, some countries are much more ahead of others in the number of gambling addicts, because, probably, the government takes a shadow policy there so that the local population and, of course, tourists play gambling. For example, this happens in Japan, Australia or Las Vegas or in Krasnaya Polyana in Russia.
Of course, the question for any government of any country remains open: do they want to see part of their population prosperous and happy, or forgetting reality in gambling?
it depends there are two sides of it
sometimes we'll see what our parents do and mimic it, be more attracted to the activity, but other times we'll feel repulse about it and avoid it
it'll vary a lot from person to person but it's common to have some kind of overlay with our parents interests but this overlay is never 100%
does it make any sense? do you agree with it?
Even though they might be able to stop gambling.
As you said, children who see their fathers gambling might be attracted to whatever their fathers do. But I'm sure not everyone is like this. Some are truly addicted, while others can control themselves well.
Absolutely right. After all, if the state does not prohibit gambling, it does not mean that it is a great phenomenon for children, because it is extremely important for children to develop their horizons, to spend time on this. Because in the future, they will have to choose an education, and on which their entire future life path and destiny will depend.
And it is extremely important to study your personality in great detail in order to be satisfied with your work in the future, because this is the point of no return for a teenager.
In my opinion, healthy gamblers already have other priorities in their lives. For them, gambling is just a hobby or a way to have fun.
The problem starts when it becomes their only focus.
I’m not sure what people who only gamble have in common, but I think most of them struggle with some psychological issues.
Yes, that's true. Gambling can sometimes become a serious problem for poor people. They tend to gamble with the goal of winning, but instead of winning, it actually leads them deeper into the trap. This is also the result of their own wrong behavior. These individuals tend to focus too much on gambling, making it a priority in their lives.The problem starts when it becomes their only focus.
I’m not sure what people who only gamble have in common, but I think most of them struggle with some psychological issues.
I believe the commonality between people who gamble is that they want to win, even those who gamble for fun.
I think that the misfortune of these poor people is the hope for gambling - because it is this that leads them to further spending money on gambling. And they can be understood, poor people are tired of their life, which does not change for the better.
Day after day they see the same life, experience the same almost routine feelings without hope that they will be able to afford to go somewhere on vacation in the summer, and therefore such people see opportunities even where there are none.
Re: Money is power and it open doors for you if you are financially discipline
Money is power and for you to get that power, you need to invest,save money. You don't wake up one day and get that power, it takes a lot of financial discipline to achieve that.so I suggest you save up and buy some bitcoins for the rainy days.
Bitcoin is one thing that will not lose value rather it appreciate in value. Just invest because at old age you will not have the strength to start doing all that you were doing when young.

You are absolutely right. And we all must be able to save money, not spend it on nonsense and iPhones, brands - so that in the future we will be rewarded for our efforts and ability to discern the prospects of the financial market, where it is, and not succumb to Fomo.
However, there are times when money really does fall from the sky, but not everyone can manage it properly:
In a news I see story about heiress of a billionaire which invested hundreds of millions of dollars in crypto on the advice of a friend and a psychic - as a result, the woman lost more than $80 million.
There should be no much lessons to attend in order to be able to learn how to be a responsible gamblers other than making sure to use funds that we can afford to lose to gamble and not also entertaining the idea of getting rich through gambling. I think these are the simple factors that determines responsible gambling, because if you don't lose more than you can afford to then you wouldn't be having a need to chase losses, and if you're not among those that takes gambling as a means of getting rich then there's nothing you have to do with impulsive gambling at all cost.
All of us here are theoretically prepared people to not become addicted to gambling and stubbornly resist any temptation to turn gambling into earnings. Because I, like you, believe that it will not work. All those who are in the black from gambling are either strong analysts who have achieved success in poker or good sports analysts who are excellent at placing bets. But such people are 1 percent, and even then it may be even less.
There is a moment that every gambler regrets. I am sure that poker players have especially many such stories, because this is the kind of gambling where not everything depends on luck, but also partly the outcome of the game depends on the poker player himself. For example, when all the cards on the table are opened in a one-on-one game after an all-in and the one who had a good combination of cards in his hands loses.
I have seen this even at international championships in Vegas and it is always a show. But the one who could not win will then remember this for years and regret it.

I've never actually seen a cockfight. I think it's really adrenaline-filled and I might enjoy it. I don't like violence, but I think it's compelling.
Let's remember that violent encounters have always appealed to mankind, from Roman times with gladiators to the present day with martial arts, boxing, and MMA.
I don't think it's strictly related to addiction; gambling in general is addictive, so cockfights are just one of the many bets you can place.

There is a very big difference between Rooster fights and MMA fights (or any other fights that take place in a closed arena, like boxing).The thing is that cockfights are held by their organizers and they force the roosters to fight each other. Although these are animals that need to fight only to find out who is the best male for the hens.
I want to say that Roosters are just animals, they have no will of their own and are made by people to fight. While MMA fighters go to the ring of their own free will to earn money or get fame.
Obviously Bitcoin price; the amount Bitcoin is worth at a particular time, and Bitcoin usage; the rate at which Bitcoin is adopted and used. The above phenoms surely has implications, one may be tempted to as; which is more important? The interesting fact is, price affects usage both positively and negatively. An increase in price attracts high usage, and vice versa. Conversely usage also affects the long term pricing of Bitcoin. Price has short term implications, usage and acceptance has long term implications. From the aformentioned, I can conclusively say; Price and Usage are phenoms that can influence the volatility of Bitcoin
I believe that Bitcoin usage has very little effect on its price. Remember examples like Litecoin or Tron, when the Bitcoin network was polluted and severely paralyzed by Ordinals. The prices of the above-mentioned altcoins did not change, although I bought them with the expectation that because everyone started using them vigorously, the prices of these altcoins would start to rise. But this did not happen. Therefore, I believe that the statement that Bitcoin's price is related to its usage is incorrect.
Re: Sounds can make you an irresponsible gambler if you let it
OP, maybe you know the term "Pavlov's dog"? The characters you described behave exactly like Pavlov's dogs. A dog is governed by instincts, but a human differs from animals by having a mind that God has given him in order for man to use it... If a person's behavior is guided by instincts, the question arises about his mental state. And there is nothing new in this article. Pavlov discovered classical conditioning probably 130 years ago...
It is not a fact that the author of the topic knows this concept well, but 100% of casinos know it more than perfectly, because behavioral factors are very easy to instill with the help of effects and, of course, sounds that we are talking about in this topic.
In general, the impact of sound on our thinking is very easily proven by the fact that we like to listen to musical themes from games or also musical themes from films. Although in essence it is just a set of sounds, but we associate it so strongly with the artistic performance that we experienced that we literally see it again before our eyes.
Yes, but over time, if we listen to the same song from a computer game, it begins to lose its meaning and becomes again just an ordinary song not related to the events and experiences that we once experienced in this computer game.
But in any case, if someone wants to reduce their perception of slots, then they should turn off the sound in the gambling game, and look for the "skip animations" button or speed them up. I think I saw such an option in slots once.
Just want to share something I’ve observed in our community. I know a few people who are consistent gamblers, yet they also work really hard. It seems like gambling actually pushes them to hustle more, because they need money to fuel their gambling activities.
In their case, they’ve been gambling for years, but they’re still responsible with work, so I don’t see it as pure irresponsibility. Their motivation might be different, but they’re still putting in the effort, even if the end goal is just to fund their gambling.
So how do you see this kind of lifestyle? Do you judge them as wrong because their reason is gambling, or do you respect it since everyone has their own way of finding happiness?

It is a pity that these people find motivation not in family life and not in the love in the eyes of their children, but in trying their luck again and again experiencing disappointment because they chose as their main hobby a place where luck rules the roost and not skills.
In fact, I have heard a lot about how people are really motivated by gambling and start working like never before, especially when they have to pay off debts. And this is sad, because in normal life these people could have achieved great success, earning more than usual.
There’s a popular saying that birds of a feather flock together. Does this apply to your gambling experience? What I mean is, do you have more gambling friends with whom you can share your earnings or strategy, or do you prefer to be on your own, not telling anyone that you gamble?
I have gambler friends with whom I can share my insights on boxing matches and horse racing. Honestly, it’s hard not to have friends in gambling because you want to talk to someone with the same interests.
I don’t know if there is a similar topic, but if there is, let me know, and I’ll lock this right away.

Absolutely right topic, because I think that when someone with his friends starts to get involved with gambling or sports betting, then in general they all participate in the same type of gambling entertainment.
For example, when I didn't know about gambling yet, my best friend told me about poker and after that we started playing this game constantly and shared results, thoughts and strategies about it.
Also, many years later, another friend of mine starts telling me about sports betting. After that, we start betting on the same Leagues and share our thoughts about it.
Sports betting and sports activity started about the same time, so it has always been a thing that ran along together, it's just now that the system is beginning to get corrupt and leading to match fixing, else for the decades that sports betting starts, there was no record of match fixing. The major advantage of sports betting and bettors reign praises on is the possibility that they are able to double their money from it, though it's not guaranteed but it still favours many people.
Unfortunately, fixed matches have existed for a very long time and the smaller the league, the more of them there are. Moreover, this bad phenomenon extends to both sports and eSports.
There are known cases when even one of the team players was corrupt and agreed to fixed matches and because of this his entire team, which tried to play, lost honestly because he introduced a rather obviously theatrical game instead of playing with all the seriousness and his skill.
Re: Your thoughts, ideas, advice and comment on serial entrepreneurship is it safe?
Skills should be taken seriously the government needs to implement it as part of the things students are though in school it will help to reduce the level of dependency in jobs and different expectations from the government if different people are trained to solve different problems using their skills it helps them to stand out and become useful and stable financially if they apply their skills to work.
The moment the government introduced entrepreneurship into the school curriculum I knew the support ended there. Skill acquisition programs are all over the web, buy not everyone has the momentum to go ahead or fight against a broken system. Only the few who could fix a broken system gets to win in this current economy. Finding out the headache, and inventing the right pills for it. The world is filled with daily problems people face, and because they won't solve it, they go out to seek help from skilled people. So, the outstanding professional makes the most money.
You write a little confusingly but correctly - only when an entrepreneur understands the demand and supply that the current market needs, only then can he enter the game. Well, of course, you need to have both capital and strength to build a business.
At the same time, you need to have as much money as possible, so that if at first there are any unforeseen expenses, they must be covered, otherwise the business may already collapse at this initial stage.
In 2019, United Kingdom implemented a whistle to whistle ban on gambling advertising. Basically no gambling ads can be shown 5 minutes and 5 minutes after a sporting event to avoid kids and or other vulnerable people to see gambling ads when watching a big sporting match. As a gambler, what would you have felt about this? Especially if you were betting on the very same sporting match? Do you think that this was effective in reducing gambling rate in the country?
I think that this is an absolutely adequate measure of influence on bookmaker advertisers, because then, due to such a pause of 5 minutes, these organizations will not be able to associate themselves with a sporting event. After all, if you think about it, bets on sports have nothing to do with sports at all, because sports are movement and physical activity. And bets on muti can be made on any event in the world.
Many people enter gambling seeking quick wealth, but is the problem just money? What really holds us back is the illusion of control and the expectation of instant rewards, isn't it?
Here are some points to reflect on:
- Greed isn't just financial: it's the desire for victory, excitement, and status.
- To what extent is gambling fun, and when does it become a way to escape reality?
- Can we learn something about ourselves through risk and the decision to gamble?
In other words, these are points that make us reflect, but until now, while I was reflecting, a question came to mind:
Is it possible to have a healthy relationship with gambling, or does it always awaken something dangerous within us?

Gambling is a huge layer of psychological information. I absolutely agree with the teachings of the ancient philosophers that in reality no person fully knows himself. And the key to fully discovering your personality is life's challenges, and one of those challenges, which is one of the most difficult, is the ability to resist your passion.
Therefore, if a gambler admits before the start of a gaming session that he is not 100% self-confident and admits that he must be careful, then, most likely, he will successfully resist addiction.
Casino is designed to give entertainment to the people who would like to play gambling with a risk and fun and of course to achieve this they need to provide a lot of different games to satisfy their players and to co
e back again to their place but of course no one would like just giving away their money reason to have a small percentage pf people only wins the casino and at the end of the day more likely with the casino owners. Now its up to the player are they willing to play with a small chance or they will would like play just for fun.
In the case mentioned above its all about the casinos responsibility to check their machines now if someone knew there are some and they didnt notice its their mistake not on the player unless theres a contract signed before the player make a game about this kind of issue.

In the modern world, lawyers decide a lot, namely their presence and professionalism in the company, because I think that if any gambler abuses winnings in a broken online game in an online casino, then not only will all his profits be taken away, but he will also be banned, and maybe accused of fraud.
Therefore, I believe that if someone discovers a loophole to winning in an online casino, it is better to immediately contact the support of this casino with such a question.
And when Bitcoin Cash appeared, many people started thinking about the fact that it could become an alternative to Bitcoin, and maybe even surpass it?
It was a time of uncertainty and at first few people sold their Bitcoin Cash, looking at the reaction of the whole world, but later it became clear that it was just a no-name coin that needed to be exchanged for the original Bitcoin as soon as possible. Because if you call Bitcoin gold, then Bitcoin Cash will be just a fake, a piece of jewelry.

A lot of factors are important.
Your product must suit the market, your product should actually solve a problem and not add another problem. It should be catered to the target audience too but unless it makes a solution for them, it will not sell. Costing is also another factor.
Pinpointing one factor to be most important in business is punitive in my opinion.

Absolutely right, that's why many business trainers suggest starting with the question "what problem will our product solve?" and based on that, you can already understand what its main target audience will be.
And in my opinion, it is best when the business organizer is at the age when he matches the target audience, because then he sees it through the eyes of his clients and begins to clearly see the nuances that can help him in the future in building and developing the business.
