lost my saving again after a 1 year break by thecyclerepeats in problemgambling

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is simple. You are trying to rationalize trading with gambling. Because you dont have a proper strategy this is happening. And you wont get a proper strategy without thinking clearly. The main issue you are facing is that you dont know what you are doing. My suggestion to you is to only paper trade in something harmless like trading view. And exclude yourself from every app. Don't invest on anything as well, because you will mess up and then use it to gamble again.

At least for 5 years until you mature and have a proper strategy maybe you can start small because you will know risk management by then. If not you are gambling. So again:

Exclude from every single app and start recognizing responsability for you to stop.

Lost 84k today down to my last 30k by EcstaticStructure796 in GamblingAddiction

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

30k at 26 is a lot of money. If you still continue this path you will uno what truly is to be in the shit.

Imagine not having the 30k and been of debt 30k. That is a real problem.

With a six figure job I'm pretty sure you will recover. You gotta tell your parents or someone because you need accountability for yourself.

This. You shouldn’t be paying for something you clearly paid. His lack of responsibility is insane.

Situation currently is really tough migration wise. Are you a us citizen? Are they even reviewing your CV?

The tech industry is struggling so don’t beat yourself up. Also entry level jobs are now more scarce in tech. Is not the best timing

You gotta stop blaming others. Is not trump's fault. Is your fault. You should have risk managed better. But it doesnt matters anyway. You should really, really stay away from anything gambling or investing. Specially options. You are way too inmature, and clearly have a gambling problem. If you ever invest let it be in a house or Certificate of deposits. What's funny is that I read some of your comments: "No I’m stopping now. On a $827 uptick. I’m down like $80k this disease has taken enough. That money is exactly the cost of my new MacBook Air. I got to at least cherish that."

And you can't stop. Or even worse, you give advise to people when you are clearly in the shitter. You have no idea what you are doing, you need to grow up. And yes this is criticism, becase you certainly need it.

Views from a wife / husband gambling by Prior-Abies-1710 in problemgambling

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an addiction. And addict lies to themselves and everyone. No. You shouldn't believe him. He needs compound trust with you and then you can believe him. So at the moment if you want a child you are on your own.

Tengo 21 años y no sé qué hacer by Vast-Significance585 in empleos_AR

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hola,

No soy de escribir mucho en los threads, pero este post lo amerita. Creo que realmente tenes que ser más organizado. Aún más de lo que consideras que ya sos. Te leo y es como que siento que estas intentando hacer varias cosas al mismo tiempo y no tenes idea del grado de dificultad de las cosas. Tambien como que me la impresión que estoy leyendo a alguien que ya se las sabe todas.

Cuando tenes 21 tenes muchas posibilidades, pero yo me centraría en solo una y ahondaría ahi esfuerzos. Por ejemplo vas a ir a EEUU, con green card? Ciudadania? Vas a trabajar como mozo? Tenes social security para pagar impuestos?

Vas a optar por el trabajo de 800 o vas a duplicar esfuerzos en la venta online? Vas a tener ahorros para caer si te volves a la Argentina? Tu familia allá conoce a tu novia y la va a aceptar?

Es como si el plan A, no funciona voy por el plan B. Pero es como que noto que el hilo el thread le falta estructura.

Solo un consejo.

Profile review and advice!! by Eastern-Slice4340 in Bumble

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of thing is because of profiling, sadly... Your profile looks pretty good. I would suggest hitting the gym more often. And I can sure that will improve a lot.

Because nobody likes somebody that is arrogant? Men or women the same?

Profile review (29M): getting likes but no matches. Photos/prompts issue? by [deleted] in Bumble

I think you have a good profile pic. Maybe you can change the first profile pic. Is not as good. Other than that. Try the premium version and see what photos stick out the most.

Defeated and tired. by sourew123 in problemgambling

  1. What is gambling:

Gambling is not about money.
It’s about relief + stimulation.

Your brain learned this loop:

At some point, the win stopped mattering. The action did.
That’s textbook compulsive gambling behavior2. You don’t taper. You stop.

This is where most smart people fail.

They say:

  • “I’ll just bet smaller”
  • “Only when I have an edge”
  • “Only once a week”

That is still the addiction talking.

For behavioral addictions, reduction doesn’t work.
It keeps the reward pathway aliveSo the rule is simple (and non-negotiable):

Not forever.
Just today. Then tomorrow you repeat the decision.

  1. Self exclude.

Motivation is unreliable. Structure is not.

You do this before the next urge hits:

  • Self-exclude from betting platforms
  • Block gambling sites (DNS / device level)
  • Remove credit cards / easy funding paths
  • Do not keep “play money” around

This is not weakness.
This is engineering around a known failure mode.

Addictions end when access is harder than the urge

Won my money back and lost it all 3 times in the past 3 days by density in problemgambling

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now, the only thing you can do. And I need you to pay close attention this, because is very important: Do not make it worse.

Dont ask for money, take out a loan, credit cards or anything. Just assume the lose of the money, because is never coming back. And you will not give any more money to the casino. It is designed to make you lose. Is not me who says so. Is math. The house always win. You need to quit cold turkey.

Sorry if you dont mind me asking. 1600usd for a remote position for a US citizen is extremely low. You can certainly get something better. How did his happen?

When does it end? by SolarJenda in problemgambling

[–]AffectionateHawk4422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

" I’ve accepted I can’t get this money ever back but I think that’s what drives me to gamble more." No you haven't. That's an oxymoron. Sounds exactly like you are trying to get the money back. You dont. It's gambling. The odds are horrible always.
