101  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Poverty will reduce if only people can do joint business in Nigeria. on: February 29, 2024, 11:19:47 AM
Why I bring this talk be say. I don observe say most of our people way get money they hardly bring out their money to take do business with the other person, I kw no if na fear or greed dy cus this whole thing. Because if 5 person’s way get like 500k join head together then fit established a business way den fit they share profit together.

In our country right now, a lot of people want to start businesses, but they're worried because the economy is not doing well and thinking of which business to do and it will not collapse easily. Many businesses have closed down because the economy is not good. People are scared to use their money for business because they don't want to lose it. Also, it's hard to trust people nowadays, especially when it comes to money. So, if someone really wants to enjoy  smooth business, they should start small and do it by themselves

That way, they can be sure they're not risking much, and they can control everything themselves. Starting small means starting with just a little bit of money and growing the business slowly over time. That's a safer way to do it when the economy is not good and people can't be trusted easily.




102  Economy / Economics / Re: Save money today so money would save you tomorrow. on: February 26, 2024, 03:03:50 PM

    To cut the story short, I’m advising mostly the young people of our generation to save, avoid unnecessary spendings and save even if it’s so little, cause you might find yourself in a situation tomorrow and you wouldn’t want to call home or ask for help, cause you have a second choice, that means you are literally getting yourself out of a problem. So please it’s not too late to stop spending on things that doesn’t really matter, so basically the money you saved today could literally save you tomorrow.

In the current economic climate, it can be challenging to manage finances, but it's crucial to seize opportunities to save whenever possible. Saving isn't just about preparing for emergencies; it's also about securing your future. As we age, our energy levels decrease, making it harder to earn money through work. Therefore, it's essential for young people to start saving now to alleviate potential financial struggles in old age when they may no longer have the capacity to work.

By planning and setting aside money early on, they can build a financial cushion that will support them during retirement when they may be unable to actively seek employment. Thus, embracing a habit of saving today can significantly mitigate the hardships that may arise in the distant future, ensuring a more secure and comfortable retirement.

Thank you for sharing this information, it's truly appreciated. It will serves as a valuable reminder to be cautious with our investment wallets. The tactics employed by scammers are not surprising to me, as I am aware that they continually develop new strategies to scam people. Many individuals have become disillusioned with the cryptocurrency industry due to falling victim to scams in the past, and they are understandably wary of experiencing it again. My advice is to maintain separate wallets and refrain from using the investment wallet for anything suspicious.the story highlights a potentially suspicious tactic, and if I were in the shoes, I would avoid connecting my wallet altogether. It's essential to stay vigilant and prioritize security in the face of such threats.

105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don’t play gambling with drugs or in half sleep on: February 22, 2024, 09:17:12 PM

It's not only when you are on drugs or in half sleep, but don't do anything that will take your attention from gambling that will lead to some mistakes. When you are not giving gambling attention, especially when you are selecting games in football, it can lead to serious mistakes, and the mistakes will increase the risk and lessen someone's chances of winning. This topic just makes me remember when I was betting on some teams to have straight wins, all of them, but due to my lack of concentration, I mistakenly selected the opponent of the team I wanted to pick as winning, thinking it was the team I bet on. So when they finished the game, I was very happy because I think the team I bet on won the game, but getting to the bet accounts, I discovered it was the wrong team I bet on, so with that, I lost the game. 
106  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you stand to gain from the bull run. on: February 19, 2024, 04:51:43 PM
As the bull run is right around the corner, most of us newbies have heard about it,  and even the experience crypto enthusiastic knows how and what always transpired during the bull run, but the sad reality is that not everyone will gain from it,  so my question is that what measures have you put in place to be among the beneficiary of the bull run?  

Yes, the Bitcoin bull run is around the corner, but nobody knows when the bull run is going to start, and again, nobody will know exactly when the bull run will end and will start experiencing the bear market. For that reason, if you are a short-term investor and you want to be among those who will benefit from this coming bull run, you must not be greedy because it is greenness that always makes some people not want to get bull run benefits.

Some will wait for the peak price of Bitcoin in an attempt to sell during the bull run, but this is not feasible unless one is really fortunate; instead, they will still enter the bear market by waiting for the peak price of Bitcoin. One should not be overly greedy if they wish to profit from the next bull run.
107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A student investing in bitcoin? on: February 19, 2024, 04:28:30 PM
I first came to know about cryptocurrency in 2019. Back then some of my friends were discussing Bitcoin but I didn't understand much. After that, they were not even researched. Then in 2022, when I passed college and entered university, I heard new friends discussing Bitcoin investment again. They have benefited from this. Then thinking about making profit in bitcoin investment I want to invest in bitcoin. I also want to know how it works. Currently I am a part time teacher in a private college along with my studies, I work very hard to support my university life and my own expenses. I deposit some money at the end of the month. Now having interest to invest in this bitcoin I want to invest here. Should I invest my savings in Bitcoin?

Over the history of Bitcoin, Bitcoin has definitely proven to be a potentially profitable investment. But because Bitcoin is inherently volatile, one should proceed with caution when thinking about putting their savings in it. Investors face a great deal of risk due to the unpredictability of Bitcoin's price changes, as the value might grow or fall quickly. Because of this volatility, it would not be a good idea to rely entirely on Bitcoin as a savings vehicle, especially in light of the necessity of having access to cash quickly in case of emergency.

It is crucial for students to have stable finances and easy access to money in case of unforeseen needs. It is therefore not advised to invest all of your savings in Bitcoin. A wiser course of action would be to diversify your savings, putting some in Bitcoin and keeping the rest in cash reserves or more reliable investments. By using this approach, people can take part in Bitcoin's future growth while reducing the risk brought on by its volatility.

Moreover, a periodic investment strategy for example, splitting savings into two halves and using one to buy Bitcoin on a regular basis while holding onto the other as a safety net may be a prudent course of action for individuals who are already deeply engaged in Bitcoin. This preserves financial security for unforeseen expenses while permitting ongoing exposure to the potential gain of Bitcoin. Finally, people can potentially profit from Bitcoin's long-term development prospects and more skillfully navigate its volatility by taking a balanced approach to investing and keeping a diverse portfolio.

108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 18, 2024, 04:48:38 PM
Arsenal played a wonderful football against another struggling promoted side Burnley and it ended 0-5 which made some of not all the Burnley fans to leave the stadium before the end of the game.
Arsenal has started recovering from there seasonal mistake but it was unfortunate for them that while they were struggling to build back there previous performance other team like Liverpool has taken over the premier League table so it will be very difficult for Arsenal to get to the first position they are on the premier League table before because right now Liverpool is the main candidate for the premier League champion or Manchester City even if Arsenal has taken over the second position but there is every possibility that Manchester City will take back there second position so it just a matter of time, however Arsenal performance was very impressive on there match against Burnley by scoring the amount of goals they did, well is good to see that they are coming back to there previous performance.

Currently, I will not say that Arsenal is still recovering to their form, but I will definitely say that Arsenal is in good form because their current performance seems to be better than even their started-season performances.
 
At this stage, none of the three teams at the top of the Premier League table will like to mess up with any of their matches still ending at the end of the season, but who can say what will happen in the next few games? Problems like injuries can arise in any of these three teams and may cause a reduction in their performance. So I don't think we should just conclude that any of the teams can't win the Premier League trophy; in fact, they have many tough matches for Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City, and if we should check their recent performances, I think Arsenal should be the best team in form, so let's not underestimate Arsenal that they can't win this season's Premier League trophy. 
109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Knowing when to own your bitcoin on: February 17, 2024, 06:58:45 AM
Luckily for me, Bitcoin is now at 52 thousand dollars, and i feel so excited to see the number of profits that i have accumulated within the shortest time which no other investment can give such profits in such a time frame, so I am glad.

With the astounding return you've made on your Bitcoin investment in such a short amount of time, you are big lucky investor! It's really amazing! Now, if I may give you some advise, I would strongly advise you not to sell off your investment just yet. How come? Well, because I really think that there is a tremendous chance for much more profit from Bitcoin to come soon. You see, we're not exactly in the middle of a bull market boom just yet, but you've made double you money.So, my recommendation is to weather the storm and wait it out to experience the excitement and potential windfall that accompanies a full fledged bull run. History has shown us that during these periods, Bitcoin prices tend to skyrocket, and I have confidence that this time will be no different!

Why will the OP give you his wallet address? If you don’t believe the OP, then it’s left to you. It doesn’t really make sense for you to be asking for his wallet, no one is forcing you to believe what the OP says. You are requesting his wallet address to confirm if the OP is really holding bitcoin. But it’s not your business if I am holding bitcoin. No matter what anyone says, I won’t reveal my wallet address or tell anyone the amount of bitcoin I am holding.

Honestly, I'm not sure why the member requested the OP to share it wallet address. It's difficult to understand their intentions or what they plan to do with it. If their aim is to verify whether the OP is being truthful or not, I don't believe many other members are concerned about that, as they prioritize privacy more.

110  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Are you Benefitting or not benefit due to Dollar increase on: February 16, 2024, 05:57:05 AM
Na disadvantage to other pipo because the prize of imported goods and services go dey on increase and ee go affect businesses and pipo wey dey patronise dese products and plenty things wey we dey use na mainly imports.
With d dollar increase which one U know say dey impactful to u.

The dollar's appreciation is positively correlated with the cost of products and services, including food and other commodities. As a result, people who are earning in dollars enjoy a considerable benefit over those who are paid in naira. It's important to remember, though, that earning money in dollars alone does not ensure prosperity especially if that money is insufficient. In Nigeria, the concurrent rise in the cost of locally made commodities makes reaching financial objectives difficult.

Consequently, the best strategy for thriving in Nigeria's economic environment is twofold: first, generate a sizable income in dollars, and second, diversify your sources of income. People can more effectively handle the economic issues that Nigerians face by earning a significant amount of money in dollars and augmenting it with different sources of income. This ensures financial stability and opens up prospects for personal advancement.
111  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why do many people fail in trade? on: February 16, 2024, 05:15:19 AM

I see a lot of traders who fail in this field, because they do not have patience and consistency in learning, that they are successful traders who study for more than a year or even two years so that they can have the ability to analyze the market and can have their own methods in making profits from trading.

In order to become a successful trader, individuals must possess unwavering determination, as trading demands a constant influx of knowledge and diligent research. It's not sufficient for someone to merely rely on their intuition or assumptions when engaging in trading activities. To excel in this field, one must prioritize ongoing learning and skill development. Without a solid understanding of trading principles and a commitment to continuous learning, individuals are bound to face losses. Trading is a complex endeavor that necessitates thorough preparation and ongoing effort to thrive and avoid pitfalls.


Many who have just learned one month to one semester they give up and no longer want to trade, please note that naturally fruitful trees are trees that grow with a long period of time so that they can bear heavy fruit and can provide benefits for both the owner or others.

it's true that seeing the benefits of one's efforts takes time, so patience is crucial in trading. However, trading carries significant risks, and if someone chooses to stop trading, I wouldn't blame them. In reality, I can't actively advocate for trading, yet I also won't dissuade anyone from pursuing it. It's important to weigh the potential rewards against the risks and make informed decisions. Each individual's circumstances and risk tolerance vary, so it's essential to approach trading with caution and awareness.

113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: February 14, 2024, 11:52:07 AM

Many who battle an addiction to gambling frequently find it difficult to admit they are dependent on it and willfully reject the idea that they could fall prey to its sway. People who are heavily involved in gambling often act as though they have total control over their behavior and firmly believe that they can control it whenever they want to. But frequently, this control illusion turns out to be nothing more than a self-deception.

The subtle nature of gambling addiction makes it extremely difficult to escape its grip. People who are consumed by this addiction show a constant search for money to support their habit, going so far as to steal in order to sate their overwhelming desire to gamble. Their blindness to the damaging effects of their activities is caused by the strong stimulus of possible winnings. So what starts out as a harmless hobby becomes into a compulsive fixation that sends people down a dangerous path that could end in financial loss and psychological suffering.In order to escape the pattern of addiction, one must have unshakeable resolve and make a firm commitment to asking family, friends, and professional resources for support.





114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: February 14, 2024, 05:55:04 AM
Quote from: lalabotax
This is a day that is highly anticipated because after all, the matches in the Champions League are starting to take place. The opening matches are Man City vs Copenhagen and Real Madrid vs Leipzig. Most of us are sure that Man City and Real Madrid will win this match. But the results will be fine. Moreover, Real Madrid, they competed without Bellingham, right? He suffered an injury. So, this might be a little difficult for Real Madrid. Thankfully they are already ahead 0 - 1. But what can we do, they should be able to score more goals.

It was a great meeting for the round 16, seen Manchester city doing what they have been doing in other competitions to prove their strongest to their opponent which they showcased in the champion league round 16 to defeated FC Copenhagen 1-3 to achieved three points from the match. Many people predicted for the victory of Manchester city and Real Madrid, and it was a big celebration for those that won their prediction because Manchester city lead the match till the end and Real Madrid also lead the match with one goal till the end of the match. I know, Manchester city will still score more goals in their remaining matches but Real Madrid manager need to use this opportunity to correct some errors that affected his players to ensure his players will not struggle to achieve victory again.


Everything worked well, especially Manchester City was basically very favorite as well as Real Madrid, and Manchester City's match was much better against Copenhagen to get 3 goals and only one goal back from Copenhagen, I'm sure many people think that this is not a difficult thing to pass by Manchester City, But it is quite unfortunate and makes me surprised when I see Leipzig against Real Madrid, Real madird is very tired and the match looks more balanced with each other, maybe because the absence of Jude Bellingham is so influential on Real Madrid, while we know that Leipzig is experiencing a decline in its own domestic league, fortunately Brahim Diaz can produce a goal as a sign of victory for Real Madrid in this leg1.

Both Manchester City and Real Madrid are known for their exceptional prowess in football, making them formidable opponents on the field. Considering their track record, it was no surprise to me that their recent matches resulted in victories – Manchester City defeating Copenhagen and Real Madrid triumphing over Leipzig. This outcome aligned with my expectations, prompting me to place bets on both teams emerging victorious, which indeed came to fruition.As they now face their second leg matches at home, I anticipate that they will capitalize on their home advantage, potentially securing convincing victories with multiple goals scored. This fills me with optimism regarding their qualification for the next round of the tournament, as their strong performances thus far suggest they are well-positioned to advance further in the competition.
115  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Don't be deceive again to trade your BTC. on: February 13, 2024, 09:09:13 PM
The bull run many traders has been waiting for is approaching with a good sign in the market this afternoon and, ensure you do everything possible within your knowledge not to allow anyone to deceive you again to trade in this current pump that just happened in the market for BTC price to hit $49k which is the highest price in this year, and what will happen after this little pump will surprise many traders.

Many individuals have experienced regret over their past decisions to sell their Bitcoin prematurely, missing out on significant opportunities for profit. Consequently, I anticipate that people will be hesitant to part ways with their Bitcoin at current prices. However, those who might be inclined to do so are likely to be newcomers to the cryptocurrency space who are unaware of Bitcoin halving events and the subsequent bull runs that often follow.

Bitcoin halving has not yet happened that anyone should be thinking it is bullish time that Bitcoin have reach higher price for bullish period and Maybe thinking the bear market is approaching that point, and they should sell before it starts dumping for next bear market, so I don't expect anyone to run and start selling their Bitcoin now because it is not Bitcoin bullish time. At least if any person were to sell their bitcoin, I expected to witness an even smaller bitcoin bullish period first.
116  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin hidden gems. on: February 13, 2024, 08:14:39 PM

If you had to pick one lesser-known altcoin that you believe has tremendous potential, what would it be? Let's uncover hidden gems together!


Investing in altcoins can be a daunting task due to the inherent risk involved, yet after careful observation, I have identified Ethereum, BNB, and Solana as potential long-term contenders in the cryptocurrency space. These particular coins stand out due to the robust communities and dedicated teams supporting their development. However, it's crucial to acknowledge that trust in any altcoin should never be absolute.

History has provided us with countless examples of altcoins that attracted interest at first due to their novel characteristics and exciting potential, but eventually faded into obscurity. Because of this, even if Ethereum, BNB, and Solana seem to have a lot of promise right now, investors should always be on the lookout for opportunities and constantly evaluate whether or not to invest because the cryptocurrency market is volatile and often changing.
117  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: STOP telling people how much Bitcoin you have on: February 13, 2024, 07:50:02 PM
I frequently question why someone would try to find out how much money I have in my bank account or how much Bitcoin I own. To be honest, I don't care to impress others with how wealthy I am. Those that easily respond to these kinds of inquiries seem to be looking for public approval or recognition, in my opinion. They overlook the possible harm that could result from sharing such informations.Speaking honestly about our value can make us the target of jealousies and unwelcome attention. Many people ignore this ongoing risk to our security and possessions in their pursuit of approval from others. It's crucial to bear in mind that maintaining our privacy and maintaining the secrecy of our financial affairs can prevent needless problems and ultimately safeguard our wellbeing.

Sadly, there are still people that keeping their funds on exchanges so that they're ready to sell them asap. But most of them are just keeping it there for storage purposes and they can't determine whether they'll sell or not when the bull arrives.

While some may think that they're wise enough to keep it there because of the current high fees again, it doesn't makes sense if you have no intention of selling.

Many individuals who store their funds on cryptocurrency exchanges without any immediate plans to use them are often newbies to the industry who haven't grasped the essential concepts before diving into Bitcoin investment. Among these crucial concepts, privacy stands out as a fundamental principle to understand prior to investing in Bitcoin. Without a solid understanding of privacy measures, it's difficult to ensure the security of one's funds.

Moreover, keeping funds into an exchange resembles a gamble with one's funds. Entrusting your funds to a palace where not only you have access means your funds aren't entirely secure. The accessibility of your funds to others opens the possibility of unauthorized use or even loss. Thus, relying on exchanges as a storage solution isn't advisable due to the inherent risks involved. There's always the looming threat that the exchange may abscond with your funds or encounter unforeseen issues, leaving users in a precarious position.

To mitigate these potential risks and avoid potential future complications, it's prudent to acquire a personal wallet like hardware wallets where you have complete control over your funds. By having sole access to your wallet, you significantly reduce the likelihood of unauthorized access or misuse of your funds, providing greater peace of mind and security for your cryptocurrency holdings.
119  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Importance of learning a skill before gaining admission into the universIty on: February 13, 2024, 06:34:08 AM
My country pipo e go really make sense if you wey they seek for admission into the university learn at least skill wey fit fetch you income the reason why some of us find am hard in school na because we no learn handwork (skill) so the thing come become very difficult to even concentrate properly some days wey nothing day no food no money to go class go worry you and all this things really dey discourage somebody well well, those wey learn handwork before gaining admission into the university no really face much difficulty because them get service to render in exchange for cash aside ur schooling e dey very important to learn handwork before u enter school because that time your brain still dey young and not much responsibility to think of unlike when you finish school to come learn some settings kind of handwork that time go dey very very hard because you done dey think about your responsibility at hand and that time u fit no get chance unlike now wey you still dey mama and papa house this na my own experience and my regret.

To be honest, the idea of having a legitimate source of income, especially while still a student, is very appealing; therefore, learning a skill becomes essential for those who wish to take advantage of the chance to make money while still in school, especially considering the state of the Nigerian economy and the direction of social dynamics. Before beginning their postsecondary education, people should understand how important it is to have occupational skills because of the uncertainties and difficulties that come with the current state of the economy.

When it comes to being able to support themselves and deal with the financial demands of university life, many students who have previously developed a vocational skill are in a much better position than their colleagues who only get family support. Although parents surely make every effort to meet their children's needs and wants, but it is important to recognize that their resources are limited and may not always be enough to satisfy every whim and necessity.Therefore, having a useful skill helps students pursue their academic and personal goals more confidently and steadily on their own, while also relieving financial pressure on parents.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 12, 2024, 11:33:47 PM
Oh dear Juventus, whats going on at the moment. They are playing against Udinese and the score is 0:1..., they probably demotivated because they lost against Inter Milan and now dont see much chance of winning the championship. There are still 45 minutes to play, lets see what happens. AC Milan could overtake them on the next matchday, they are only 1 point behind Juventus. But Juventus will probably score another goal today, they have a much better chance.

How can we say Juventus is in the title race if it loses to a team at the bottom of the standings with Udinese in the backyard?
Is this a joke? Four years and no trophy. No more excuses. It is the biggest embarrassment in Juve history.
Juventus plays the worst football among the top European teams.
Don’t disgrace yourself, The old lady...
It is really a big surprise for everyone to see a team like Juventus lose to a team like Udinese, who haven't been playing well lately. The shocking part is that Juventus lost the match at home. That really is a great embarrassment for Juventus at this moment when everyone are thinking and easy they are the only team that can drag this season's Serie A trophy with Inter Milan, but the way we're seeing Juventus results recently, I don't think they can't drag this Serie A trophy like any more with Inter Milan again because the points between them are getting wider.
