Topic: I am only trying to stay safe by gambling less - page 4. (Read 2882 times)

This is not even something to argue about. when you gamble and you lose which mostly happens then your money is gone, but when you invest in bitcoin even if the price drops and you can hodl with patience then once the its back up you wont lose and also have increase in dollar value. its not easy to win such an argument with someone that is an addict especially. maybe they are thinking that its all risk which i agree even life itself is so full of risk but when it comes to BTC investment then it can be compared to gambling.  for me i would just let it slide anytime such argument comes up. 

How can you be sure? Although all money launderers may not be into gambling but at least 50% of all money launderers that were arrested by the authority are into gambling. Go and verified.

Money launderer are getting their fund through different source and we have who are not doing it through what you listed because they are getting their fund through the selling of hard drugs.

A lot of scam dev teams used the Yobit exchange listing years ago and if the BTC were moved or sold when the KYC was not introduced into the crypto gambling space there's a huge chance that the BTC was tint using casino because it was really easy doing it through casino then and there's a huge guarantee of getting a clean coin.

Because it is very risky when a gambler depends solely on luck to win. Because after all, there will be no luck that always comes to gamblers every time they place a position in gambling. There must be certain skills and sufficient knowledge to start and see the chances in these gambling positions.

Exactly, money launderers are not gamblers. And they will not use their money laundering in gambling. they will put more on certain investments that are not considered and cannot be traced by the government or authorities. If they play gambling, it's not money laundering, but maybe it just becomes one of their hobbies or it's just their activity, not intended to do money laundering in gambling.

actually money launderers are not gamblers, they are not involved in gambling, they are people who keep cheating and stealing other people's money either through hacking exchanges or through ICOs and after collecting people's money For example, a few years ago I participated in an ICO, it was a project about video games, the project team had already managed to collect 50 BTC, I remember that at the time people were angry with the project team because they were taking too long in the development of the project, so I thought: I already have a profit of almost 3x, it's time to sell my coins

the coins had been listed on yobit (yes, they were listed on the worst exchange ever), so i sold my coins, days later we found out that one of the Devs stole 50 btc and disappeared, no doubt the thief must have used some mixer site to hide his tracks, but I highly doubt he would use a casino, even if they didn't ask for kyc at that time, he still wouldn't put a lot of money in the casino. By that I mean that money launderers are not gamblers and do not use casinos to launder money, governments have gone overboard with this kyc measure, there are several other options that casinos can use to prevent money laundering

You have already make a lot of point about what will happen in the future if care is not taking due to the government's habit of force controlling their citizen but in the area of crypto gambling websites KYC has been mandated for almost all casinos this day I don't blame the government about that because of the abusive behavior of some crypto gamblers that uses casino to laundering crypto year's ago. However, I am the type of person that believes there's always a solution to every problem.

I think the case is often so as described in the quotes for gamblers who thinks it's by there efforts or how knowledgeable they are to the games. In that instance, they seem to eliminate the element of luck, take huge risks or high odds and expect huge rewards as well.

Many times over they end up worst than they started but the little thing called hope pulls them back to it everytime.

Of course there could be such a thing as how knowledgeable you are when it comes to sportsbook but, not so much when it comes to casino games and even still, there is an element of luck about the games. That puts the probability statement in the way which means, you've got to be careful about the habits you endulge in while gambling.

Indeed, investing in crypto is less risky than putting your money into gambling. Gambling relies purely on luck, as you mentioned whereas trading allows for better control over potential losses. Even in the worst-case scenario of trading you wouldn't necessarily lose all your money, but it might decrease.

To be safe in gambling you need to be wise and know exactly when to stop. It's important aswell not to exceed a limit of money you set before even starting to bet. Obviously, if you gamble less you'll lose less in the worst cases. Therefore, it's better to minimize your gambling activities but when you do gamble make sure you have a good chance to win.

But for a government to have the data of the people who make transactions with the cryptocurrencies with that is enough, in fact the government can be so persuasive that it can assign a btc address to the person so that they can make their transactions from there, governments are Thus, there will come a time when if things are accepted like this, we will have to ask the government for permission to make a transaction X, things can be like that because if there is no irreverence they can become them, in the end. that is what is sought, it will not happen at once, I know, because training or indoctrination is little by little, with the idea that things are going to be safe, that to avoid scams, I don't think so.

I am saying all this in part because I live in a country where the government has and wants to have control over everything, and it is very difficult for us as citizens to allow a government to put its hands in our pockets, that is something that I do not know cannot and should not be allowed, so that is why also the rejection of KYC, being irreverent with the casinos that have so many rules, because the crypto were made so that we could do what we want with complete freedom, without having to give our data or ask permission from anyone here is part of what we know as the deep rejection of betting sites that are so strict with this type of requests, there are some players who have not even played in casino sites again because of the KYC, so players are partly lost.

It's up to them, because even they will go to unreasonable lengths to fulfill their needs. There's a nagging feeling when they're not playing, which is a problem that needs to be solved. When that happens, they will find it difficult to distinguish between what they can and cannot do. And if it's like that then it will be difficult to stop it.
Some people may be able to realize by themselves, but for some others they do not have the strength to realize it, now this is where the role of a second person is needed who can bring it to a better direction.

Being in a good environment is also sometimes an environment that actually follows someone like that, I have seen it a lot. I mean sometimes when we are in a good environment then we will be in line with it. But this is unusual gambling, I mean those who are addicted will play and be seen by people who have never gambled before, and at the same time they see winnings. Now this is what I meant before.

If they realize that success in gambling is difficult and cannot be obtained overnight, they will think long and hard about never trying it. But many are curious how and how long they can get it. This made them decide to keep trying to play gambling, and only people who can manage their budget to gamble can survive and see the real reality. Meanwhile, those who can't manage their budget will only use more money without being able to stop. Yes, the scenario is that they will lose more than anyone else.

If you are a type of person who do have that iron will and having that good self control on things then you wont really be worrying whether you would be spending those funds into gambling because you

do know on what you are doing and you do know on what are your priorities and other aspects on which it would really be unlikely that you would really be having that kind of problem.
If you do find yourself that arent that good when it comes to emotion handling and really that bad when it comes to sticking into your plans or decisions then you should avoid gambling in the first place.
Its better to be safe that sorry but actually if you are really just that being able into your own sense then you wont really be finding yourself into such trouble because you could really
make outright decisions which you do seem that it would really be just that right.

There are really that those people who are really that not good on handling out their decisions well and this is where it would be mostly be ending up on a disaster just because they havent been
able to prevent it out.

The iron grip of addiction is relentless regardless of whether you're at work or play. It's a risky trap. People's life become ruled by gambling, which interferes with their leisure time and sometimes even causes them to miss work

Your observations are spot on. However, we must not lose sight of the fact that our culture frequently idealizes "busyness" and productivity to the point where the boundary between work and play blurs, making it easier for individuals to turn to addictive behaviors. Not being able to distinguish between work and personal life is a major issue that arises when we are busy. It is our duty as conscientious Internet users to spread information about these disorders and work to aid those who suffer from them

Gambling less is good as you are not exposed to the game all the time and your portfolio is saved. However, gambling less may guarantee that you may lose less but it will not guarantee that you will win. Think of a situation where one person who gambles less and keeps on losing more games, will he be in profit, Never. He may be facing bad luck and since he gambles less, he loses less money as compared to if he had been addicted and lost everything.

Sometimes a person is having good luck and even being an addicted gambler, he keeps on winning most of the games. Again this does not happen often but there is a probability of this situation too.

Many have tried to get that success overnight but most of them failed because they don't have what it takes to be in the position in the first place, wealth will just be waste if it will fall into their hands because judging by how they think about gambling, we sure do know already what would be the scenario if in case they will land a fortune and sure enough it won't last that long.

Hat matters what your friends gets to say about you and on the gambling course with regards to investments.

I think they are basically trying to draw a risk association as a means in which they could get some positivity out of there argument but, what is wring will always be wrong no matter the relationships drawn.
You count tie risk as a base gor argument nor label anything that come with risk to be gambling.

Gambling isn't predictable, especially when it comesto casino games. Sportsbook might be predictable but even still, its a game of chance and luck.  Since you know yourself and you've been able to develop a healthy habit about gambling, you be good and don't give much reason to what your friends say about you.

Winning the lottery or marrying into a wealthy family arent methods, right? Its just...life. Some of the time it works out. This isnt always the case. The lottery is the same way. I think we can all agree that this is a common dream. But the odds are slim, mate.

The key to success is putting in intelligent, purposeful effort. Gaining financial freedom requires not a lucky pickaxe, but rather the application of dedication, perseverance, and expertise. Its like putting together a masterpiece. Are you not in a hurry? You instead slowly work on it until you've created something you're happy with. Its the same with money. Money doesnt grow on trees, and neither did Rome.

Since you gamble less, why do you care about how how your friends make you feel? you know you are not addicted to gambling so i see no reason why you should be worried about what they say about you, if you know you are not addicted, then you should just be looking at them, what they say or how they make you feel shouldn't disturb you, if you are really a addicted gambler that's when you are suppose to be feeling bad.

Your friends are find of funny to me, but did you ask then why they think bitcoin investment is the same as gambling? I can conveniently say it anywhere that gambling is completely different from bitcoin investment. Maybe your friends are already addicted to gambling, so no matter what you tell them, they wont want to listen to you. Just tell them what bitcoin investment is all about and what gambling is all about, then its left for them to believe that bitcoin investment and gambling are not the same.

What i notice is that in the long run, gamblers are the once that are always losing and gambling site owners are the once that are always winning. When a gambler wins any amount of money, then if you calculate the amount wasted before winning,then you will notice that the amount they have lost is even more than the amount won, but most of them dont notice that.

Yes, it is true that when you are busy, it is possible for someone to forget about their gambling habits, but make no mistake when they have become addicts they will do it no matter how busy they are. Let's just say they are busy working all day, and that doesn't mean that no matter how busy they are there is no time to rest, right? well at times like that they will usually take the time to open their cellphones to then access gambling sites. Addiction will beat their fatigue, and maybe for them it is one way to relieve fatigue. Or even I also see my friends who can still gamble during their working hours, they are willing to steal time in between their work.

You explained it pretty accurately. But I don't think most of gambling addicts are aware that they are addicts. They only think its desire to play, keep on and have fun making money. I didn't see many people thinking that they are plagued by addiction that they need to combat. Its so hard to accurately/safely guide gambling addict too. I mean if I had gambler friend that I want to help I am pretty sure he wouldn't listen me at all. Its hard for gambling addicts to heal unless they themselves accept it and go seek help.

The word gamble less is the best, but a difficult principle to maintain and that's where I like the statement you made of a lot of individuals sharing the same desire, forgetting that anything that involves cash just makes the whole thing more difficult, once you a get win, you keep trying to get more wins and that is when addiction starts coming in gradually. bro people that are addicted don't take breaks I have seen this before the only thing is that, if you can get busy and you have another source of income your mind can gradually drift out from the part of gambling.
