Arbusers DNA

Sun Feb 18, 2024 10:28 am

Gentlemen,

I would like to declare that I am no longer happy with the DNA of this forum. This forum is loosing its gambling identity and turns rapidly to an investment and Bitcoin related place.

The ownership of arbusers knows my opinion and I was encouraged by them to publish my concerns for discussion.

Thank you.

You may be right but whos the one to blame? Users. Since profiting from betting is more and more complicated users leave betting for other sources of income so more and more such questions will come for sure. You will either allow them or ban to keep the forum as it was before.

I am satisfied with the current development of the forum. There is simply not that much money in betting anymore and it is reasonable to look for other sources and discuss it with people who deal with a similar concern. I would even have liked more topics on how to earn money via the Internet.

Making money in the stock market has become easier than betting. I can't get a bet on anywhere. The exchanges are dead and only sharps left battling each other for peanuts.

My Nasdaq 100 ETF is up over 40% and my S&P 500 ETF is up over 25% in just one year!

I would like to say a big thank you for everyone here who encouraged users to look in to stock market investing. I spent a lot of time researching and have made super profit in a short space of time. Best thing is I haven't done anything except buy and hold.

Also big shout out to Arbusers for saying Shell PLC was a buy. I have held and made over 100% profit on it and earn dividends 4 times a year.

If you don't like the other stuff you don't have to read it.

I am not interested in bitcoin so don't bother to read any of those posts.

Stock market investing topics can be posted in appropriate sections of the forum, namely, Stock Market and Other Investments.

Just to add, I think everyone should be involved in the stock market as it is the best way to preserve and grow your wealth over the long term. In this high inflation environment we have had hard earned money sat doing nothing is losing it's value.

Bitcoin +%150 last year.

Arbing is dead, even if not dead, it's in coma or in a vegatative state.
crypto, bitcoin, stocks better opportunities.
we should switch our focus and develop, adapt to change

Valuebetting and arbing is a type of investment and so is crypto, stocks and so on.

You can't be stuck in the past, arbing/valuebetting is dying more and more for everyday that goes so this is the only natural way to adapt to changes.
And it's not like betting is not discussed anymore, there is just alternatives.

On a personally note, the Bitcoin, S&P and the stocks posts, are without a doubt the most valueable post for me.

A good idea is to have a paid section for stock/bitcoin analyses, everyone will be happy that way.

Those who are not interested wouldn't bother and those who are thankful wouldn't mind pay some euros per month. Pretty sure many have earned more from arbusers investments than arbing/value betting etc.

The title of the forum is: "The money making forum".
So, in my opinion, every source of profit, or business should have a space in this forum.

In any case, you can always choose not to read some posts.

For the past 12years I have been on this forum, every stage had its own enlightenment and we moved from one part of the other. In regards to my personal wealth and money management the forum and people that have had the biggest impact and from where I know I learnt more than any university institution can offer is here.

I am glad to see the forum evolving to more complex learnings and for its adaptation to be able to give users who are willing to have an extra rod to fish and to have a framework to be able to fish quite what Ill want to see from a forum of smart people.

I am glad in its trajectory. We are here to beat markets.

May I also add that my 2 most visits sections are the Stock Market and BTC part of the forum. I no longer partake in betting sports as I do not see value for time anymore

I don't know where to start, but maybe I should start with a ''thank you'' for the good words. I will answer to many of your comments guys when I find some time.

Investing is always welcome but at the same time it is always better and safer to have a profit generator other than investing. It could be a salary, a pension, a rent, whatever. It could also be smart gambling. In my view, once you master smart gambling, the only valid reason to quit is when the profit/hour ratio falls lower than your alternatives.

At the same time, no matter how odd it sounds, smart gambling is a hedge. Imagine the following situation, which might happen in the near future. What if we enter a 5 year recession period when no investment performs decently? Will you need a profit generator in a situation like this?

And even though it is true that smart gambling is on decline, there are still people who do it successfully in different forms than before. I see new registrations in BetBurger every month, and I can say that some of our members are consistently renewing their BetBurger subscriptions for a decade. Can you imagine that?

Of course, it is true that the number of smart bettors is smaller every year, and there is little fresh blood in this field. The number of people who quit is bigger than the number of people who join. This is a fact. But given the logic above (profit/hour ratio) one should think again before giving up.

I will continue commenting here through out the day and beyond.

I believe that deep inside in any arber's DNA is hardcoded the ability to adopt
Shifting attention from betting section to other fields for an increasing part of this forum's members is just the logical evolvement
Afterall arbitrage opportunities (as the very name of this forum suggests) exists beyond sports betting
Imho opinion smart betting and smart investing can very well co-exist in this forum , If however the owner decides that these two are incompatible
despite the fact that there is a distinct and seperate section for investment opportunities in this site then what would you think for
the creation of a sister site by the name of Crusers.com ? ;)
"Cr" in crusers is for crypto obviously ... i just drop an idea
Thanks
