Yes, I've heard of it, but I took it all as some kind of meme, I didn't think the man was that baffled by it, but you can see from him that it's his lifestyle. He's not the only public figure out there, there's a lot of them. Among the popular ones, Drake, for example, and there were rumours that he really likes betting and is sick of it and he is a prime example of a person who has lost a lot on it, because there are amounts of several hundred million.

Politics is inseparable from everyday life and will continue to coexist in any context. We can see how Bitcoin continues to grow, and even most countries on earth have considered strategic reserves in Bitcoin. This demonstrates a superiority because every choice made is based on a study of potential financial benefits. Recently, we saw the Bitcoin price rally again and reach its all-time high, providing a much more convincing perspective on Bitcoin's trajectory.

I'm not sure how Bitcoin can play a direct role in practical politics, but there is ample evidence that leaders have been elected after speaking about Bitcoin. Furthermore, we can see the election of Trump and the South Korean president and how the issue of crypto has been brought into the context of those elections.

i think that bitcoin would have been more beneficial to the poor during its early days compered to now or today. i not in any saying that the poor can not benefit from bitcoin now, just that if they could have bought it earlier when it was way cheaper, by now they would have become rich. i believe why people keep on emphasizing on the notion that bitcoin is for the rich, is because the rich makes a lot of profit from it than the poor.  for example a poor guy may accumulate small stash of bitcoin for a very long time to be able to even invest like $500 or $1000. and it will take a long time to make profit and we all know that the higher the amount invested, the higher the profit return. so the rich can buy 1 or 2 bitcoin within a short time frame and take advantage of the price changes. so i believe this is the aspect people keep emphasizing on rich being advantageous over the poor.

Having a right bankroll management system plays an oversight functions for a gambler especially when you play without limits and it's mostly fueled by discipline and consistency in it. Besides failing to plan is planning to fail, you set a bankroll that will be suitable for you and then you stick to it inorder to be a responsible gambler are outrun loses and addiction as well.

Personally, I think that those who are in prison are not like other ordinary people because they are there as punishment for committing crimes. It is definitely not a place for entertainment, so it is not right to accept that all the facilities will be there.
Yes, we see in various movies or series that gambling happens in prison, and fights happen over it, but I don't know how much it happens in reality. Because luckily, I haven't done anything that would have me going to jail.

~ I don't know if spirituality can cure gambling addiction but as a religious person and also believe in science. In my opinion, if we are sick or addicted to gambling, we should first go to the hospital or rehabilitation center for treatment. We should only seek spirituality when there is no other effective solution, we should not abuse spirituality or become too superstitious.

You’re right about the responsibility is already on us once we fake the ToS. And I doubt casino can fully restrict minors to play if they have access to valid of an adult. In addition, there’s also a lot of services that offers KYC verification for problem like this expand the problem of the casino when it comes to verification just to avoid minors.

Overall, it’s dangerous to play while breaking the ToS because there’s a point that casino requires enhance KYC that ask for bank statements and other sensitive info which you will have a problem if you are gambling illegally.

This gambler is simply an example of an absolutely thoughtless attitude to himself and his life. I can't believe that he is still alive and not caught by the mafia or credit organizations. At the same time, I find his logic and mental organization strange. He is so sure that he is doing everything right that it is amazing. Well, and the story about the person who advises him, the so-called Guardian Angel, a person whom he has never seen in the eye but gives money for advice. This is surrealism, not life.

Winning is like a pill when taken you will want more and more and you begin to gradually do beyond the usual as you now see that it has become rewarding and so you can get something really nice from it, this is exactly what happens to some gamblers,  they then begin to want more that they no longer gamble just for the fun or entertainment alone because they have seen they can get more than just entertainment from gambling so they begin to intensify and increase their stake, habit and they get in to problems sooner because they lacked self control and all their funds will be lost in the end.

And at that time I often discussed or told about Bitcoin to some of my friends with positive things, be it about news, developments and also its potential to some of my friends who were already involved in the world of Bitcoin, because I myself knew and learned about Bitcoin from some of my friends who at that time Bitcoin was not so popular. However, as time went by we had our own busy lives and also had families that made us rarely meet, and I never discussed or told about Bitcoin other than with them and even though Bitcoin is currently very popular and maybe only a few members of my family because they have an interest in getting involved and until now some members of my family have felt the benefits and besides that I never discussed or told about Bitcoin to anyone. Because for now if someone talks about Bitcoin then it is considered to have Bitcoin and I am more careful to avoid things that I don't want, and other reasons. Having Bitcoin they will judge having a lot of money because of Bitcoin and potentially they will borrow money or other negative things that make me uncomfortable.

Most people these days leave their BTC in the hands of a custodian (centralized entity). They only know how to buy/sell Bitcoin. But not how to use it as true, P2P digital cash. It's no wonder why governments are only interested in building Bitcoin reserves. Not spread BTC's use as a currency.

El Salvador was the exception because it wanted to "break the ice". Turns out its experiment failed, as most people claimed the rewards from the Chivo Wallet and forgot about the rest. Not even a mandatory use of BTC did any good. The odds of other countries following El Salvador's footsteps are slim. But who knows? Maybe things will change in the future as Bitcoin finally addresses its scaling issues. For what I've learned, anything's possible in crypto land. We'll see what happens in the long run...

~OP~

This case occurred in 2021 and this year the case has resurfaced because of the confession from Patidongan who is the head of security for the e-sabong operator, which is enough to prove that there has indeed been a murder and we should be grateful because justice still exists for the victims. Indeed, if brought to court it will not be enough to reveal who the mastermind behind this cruelty is because of the lack of evidence, but I heard that the victims were dumped in Taal Lake, if law enforcement can collect evidence there then I think there is still hope. Hopefully cruelty like this will not happen again.

Well, his daughter already learned to gamble so it's useless to make her stop from doing it. Forcing her to stop might be more bad as it will just entice her to gamble more.

What op can do is just guide her daughter and watch closely her gambling activities. Make sure she doesn't go into addicition like him. Maybe it can help if he will tell his story to his daughter about how he got into gambling addiction and that it didn't do good to him.

for me positive mindset should only come after a bad result that is when your positivity gets really tested because you will have a very huge urge to just wallow and be disappointed

before you place the bet, it’s still being called hopeful which there’s nothing wrong with but after you’ve seen the results and you remain to think you can win despite the very low chances then that is when it just turns to delusions

~ Now, what is more addicting? Slots or sports betting?

I also think it's a subjective thing, whether a student plays or not always depends on him, they have no excuses.
There are a lot of kids who get into the game even though they are studious or people who are very good at school, so in my opinion it's just subjective.
