LMFAO plebbit coiner fag about to rope. There are no good investments in the USA or Europe, just malinvestments.
Darwinism needs to comeback in full force. I look forward to the future collapse of "society" and the population collapse.

70% of Americans are useless affirmative action genetic garbage. A country with these demographics will decline to some rotten spic nigger shithole level. I don't have any children... and I hope the non-white-males (aka affirmative action subhumans) live in a shithole worse than anything currently on earth. They merit it... the 85IQ average genetic garbage will finally get what they merit. I laugh at them, because they will all devolve back to filthy apes running around eating each other. They will go back to the filthy vile creatures they were before the white man found them.

that's why i always laugh at people showing their last leveraged trade profits

one day you make 20K, the next one you lose 30K

bitcoin runs are so easy these days, just buy at 35K and sell it back in 2029 for 160K

The loss of traditional and honest ways to excel, succeed, and thrive will naturally beget riskier, shadier, and higher risk income streams. You'd think a government system that wants infinite taxation would be all about finding ways to keep people in the system so their energy isn't wasted, but we haven't had competent governance in over a century at this point, so here we are

Gambling is fun though. Is it more appealing in current year, or just more accessible?

Also anyone with a debit card can be a day trader on Kalshi. You can’t do that on the stock market if you’re just casually trading with lunch money. It’s right there in your phone. You could have tripled your money by betting that Trump wouldn’t mention weed this week (and you could probably triple it again, as the price ebbs and flows).

There's nothing "gambling" about it if you do it right. There are an incredible number of idiots who will throw their money away over their own biases. All you have to do is be unbiased and you can make good money.

Picrelated is one example, it was blatantly obvious that everything he did was in self-defense and that he had no other options. Any rational jury would find him innocent, and at trial the prosecutors intentionally violated his rights repeatedly to the point that the judge would have declared him not guilty by JNOV if the jury hadn't come back with a "not guilty" verdict of their own. Yet there were shitloads of leftards screaming "he murdered three black men in cold blood!" and who were willing to bet that he would be convicted for it.

>CoL incredibly high now
>good jobs are only available if you are incredibly lucky or very, very good at being social and networking
>otherwise you're stuck in some low-mid pay shithole job that you managed to finally land after getting ghosted by 300 different HR roasties where every day drains your soul and you finish the month with just a tiny fraction of your paycheck saved
Most of them probably realize how long it would take to reach even just 6 figure hell with the tiny amount they save for investing every month, let alone a more comfy mid-7 figure retirement. So in their despair they come to realize that gambling is the only real way out, since they can't be a nepo hire somewhere good.

I dunno man, I just had a call today where the guy sounded desperate to get me to say yes to wanting a job. Have another interview to go but for the last four years I’ve been able to find a remote only position within a few weeks each time. Granted I lie about my resume experience to look better but anyone can do that in theory. So many young people hold themselves back by being honest in saying they have no experience.

bunch of degen influencers getting paid to promote gambling apps except the ad is disguised as real content of them gambling but the whole time they are gambling with house money
>polymarket
promoted heavily right now, also paying social media accounts to promote them via ads disguised as real content except they went a step further and dont even pretend to be gambling anymore, it'll just be some guy harassing homeless people and then halfway through the video "let's just do a quick polymarket play here..."
right now prediction markets are the ones being shilled hard, used to be stake and other money laundering "casinos" but right now its prediction markets. Polymarket is fighting kalshi, fanatics, and a few others like fanduel and draftkings who are established gambling apps but trying to get into prediction markets, for critical mass of users. The thing is with prediction markets, since it is a relatively new thing there are legal loopholes that allow them to operate with much less regulation than regular gambling, which pisses off casinos. I actually dont believe that at the moment there are as many users as they claim. I think there is a good chance that (at least the overseas ones) they are manipulating the prediction markets and laundering money for whales, all while marketing hard to try and eventually legitimize. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the more detailed posts in this thread even are bots or shills.

Gambling isn't even as bad as the market now. You can 30,000x a .50 bet in less than a second, these old globohomo fags want you to froth over a few percentage points in a year. The old man economy from the 80's and 90's is over with.

>>61831352
The big ones like fanduel in the like are trying to actually make money and stay in the "prediction market", a lot of the crypto/smaller ones. Use fake info and sign up, they are just social farming. Any info you give them, even a wallet address is instantly sold.

This. Way too many people focus on their loses. For instance, I'm down $5k on my hyperliquid account. But I've had so much fun. And I'm still grinding. One trade. That's all it takes. But even if I lose it all, I enjoy this more than going for drinks with my friends. And I just take like 300 or 400 every month for my trades.

It's always been like this but less risky. People mostly gambled with money they owned because borrowing it was more difficult.

Yesterday I saw an old dude spamming lottery tickets at a train station kiosk. Man couldn't stop himself, he'd do one, take a break and then come back for more. This continued until he hopped on his train. If he was more smartphone literate he'd probably be drowing in debt after doing some 100x retarded leverage move on Binance.

This is even more amplified by doomscrolling algos showing these clowns how rich people live in some nonsensical place like Dubai, essentially ragebaiting envious wagies into gambling.

I stick to regular stocks and make 10% on my investment each year. Sure, I won't retire by 30 but I also won't end up on the street.

There is no more money to squeeze from the middle class so the Jews move to gambling to milk the now lower class. Anyone dumb enough to gamble on anything should be killed anyways.

Yeah, there are stupid bets about "how many tweets will Musk make this month" or "will Trump say the word 'cocksucker' on live TV this week" but there are also lots of bets on non-stupid things.

Gemini has a few Polymarket trades available through its site. One of them was whether gold would crash by the end of January. I made a 6X on my money by betting that it would. It was a small bet on a longshot but it gave me some comfort when I'd lost 10% on my gold stack.

The mention markets are legitimately fun.sometimes they’re predictable. Yesterday Bernie Sanders had a 1 hour interview on MSNBC. Leading up to it, “healthcare” was selling for $0.52. Does anyone think the chances of Bernie Sanders bringing up healthcare on a long interview in MSNBC are less than 100%? I did lose on him not saying “trump”; it was at ~90% during the entire interview and at like 58 minutes I put $2 down and as soon as I confined it the old commie talked about trump.

The President is speaking to a coal lobbying group today after they present him with the “Champion of Coal” award. These are the mentions that you can gamble and trade on. I’m only holding “affordable.” Check Kalshi leading up to and during the event and watch as prices rise and fall. It can be a lot of fun.

There have always been men who ruined themselves and their families via vices. It's, perhaps, easier than ever to choose the evil path--but plenty don't and attempt to life a life of virtue.

Repent of your sins--including greed and envy--and life a just life.

This is only going to get worse. This shit is basically just late stage capitalism there is no point of creating anything that has any actual value when you can just make the same amount if not more by basically doing nothing on these markets.

>one lebblet post
you're not very smart are you?

but to address the post itself, most people have an inflated sense of what theyre capable. the people that succeed dont talk about all the failures and setbacks they experienced along the way. people in the op's pic see others talking about how someone made $10-50k in a short amount of time and think "hey i should try this thing that i wasnt even remotely interested in a week ago, if i made that much i'd bust my ass off!" not realizing ALL professions that worth while take YEARS to learn at minimum.

I wrote a big thing about how Polymarket is a scam (it’s not “lol Trump is in on it!”) but it didn’t get posted.

Basically UMA token holders control a betting procedure that determines disputed resolutions.
>event might happen
>doesn’t look like it will
>95% No, 5% Yes
>objectively, the event does not take place
>resolves to No
>gets disputed
>goes to a vote
>token holders decide that observable reality and media consensus are wrong
>vote overwhelmingly that the event really did occur
>market gets resolved as Yes
Why would they do that? Because they bought Yes contracts at dirt cheap and walked away with everyone’s money after deciding the outcome.

It’s not all scams, but stuff like this happens in a weekly basis. Did officials meet with Iran? Did the US have military operations in Mexico fighting Cartels? Did Trump speak with Putin on a phone call? Only UMA whales know the truth, apparently.

>>61837851
Make a thread posting your expose anon, it sounds intredasting

>>61837851
Sounds like a good reason to buy UMA tokens and outvote them.
