Bayern Munich is still unbeaten in the Bundesliga, even though other clubs such as Leverkusen, Stuttgart are trying to take over the title which has been dominated by Bayern Munich, matches in the Bundesliga will be even more interesting if they see the new champion who can overtake Bayern Munich in the race for the title.
Leverkusen performance this season has improved rapidly and what is even more surprising is that Stuttgart can be in the top 4 of the current standings.
Leverkusen opportunity to win the Bundesliga will be realized if Leverkusen is able to maintain its consistency until the end of the season so thats it can become Bundesliga champions this seasons.
The three teams in the top four standings will try to maintain their respective consistency until the end of the season, because all three really want to overtake Bayern Munich in terms of winning the Bundesliga trophy this season. So interesting competition will continue to occur this season in the Bundesliga because Bayern Munich must do everything they can to dominate the Bundesliga again this season with three obstacles that have begun to appear at the start of this season.
I think that the most potential team to still consistnet till the end of season will be leverkusen and dortmund. Stuttgart had been starting this seaosn with very good result as it was also able leading the competition which was amazing but it's likely this will not be so long.
Stuttgart may struggle at the middle of season. Bayern must also face a busy schedule too. Leverkusen has more advantage to take the first position. Leverkusen was consistently winning the game and it's now leading the competition.
Xabi's club will able do repeat the same result against wolfsburg after international break. I never expected if stuttgart will be running this long. It's caused by stuttgart has poort performance last season.
I dunno what trick used by stuttgart to perform so impressive like the current season. It feels like that i see a new strong club join in the bundesliga.

with the second idea you need to start it up and see whether it fare quite well in your area considering the competition, the first choice is also just as good, you know that teaching profession isn't all about stuck in one job, you can have job at teaching and also creating online courses and make money out of it, heck if you good at marketing the income would be massive.
but for the long term I think the second idea is promising, it can scale well and can give you many income but to pull it off indeed you will need massive effort and innovation.
its actually also depends on your financial condition and see whether you can really create business, you should know starting business isn't as easy as it seemed to be.
1083  Economy / Economics / Re: You can't meet all your needs/desires at once, even if you spend all your salary on: October 11, 2023, 12:50:50 AM
Most of the well earners that are still enjoying their adulthood don't still prioritize investment because they prefer to clubbing, drinking with friends, partying, and other easy go lucky activities, because they are thinking that they only live once, and they can afford it, they can earn it again.

They don't care about their future, the backfire of their activities that don't secure themselves in the future, no savings, no emergency funds, just flexing their salary through social medias and by treating their friends every single time.
Such a person has no plans for his future and he only enjoys the moment when he receives money from whatever it is including parental gifts because he thinks he is rich easier to get even without working, but this will lead to regret later.

This person will be happy at the beginning will be tragic at the end because they do not prepare anything for an emergency fund let alone prioritize investment, it is clear that they will not think about it, this is only some people who do not care, maybe because of the lack of financial advice from those closest to them.

Not all rich people are the same, they will definitely think about the future if they have long-term thoughts and plans during their lifetime and now prioritize their investments.
usually the well established rich person are always already planning for future financial.
its those descendants of the rich that usually waste a lot of money if not getting proper education, thats why financial education better suited for those that already rich.
after all managing money also requires as much effort as to gain it though it can still be argued, at the end of the day, its essential to know how to keep money from vanishing.
therefore if someone really eager to become rich at least having some dollars in their banks, should know to differentiate between real needs and desire.
1084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 10, 2023, 04:14:00 PM
I actually hope that Leverkusen will get a banger this season. It's great to see a new champion. Usually tight competition will make a league very interesting to watch. What makes Ligue 1 less attractive is PSG's too strong dominance in the league. But in Ligue 1 there is no team like Leverkusen that is strong enough to challenge for the title.
This season's Bundesliga is starting to be more different from last season, although last season's Bundesliga also presented a tight and interesting competition between Bayern Munich and Dortmund. And this season the two of them also often compete in the points table where there are four teams with very close points after seven matches at the start of this season and among these four teams Bayer Leverkusen is still very strong in first place followed by Stuttgart in second place, so it is clear that This will be enough to make the Bundesliga interesting to watch again because there are four teams that will dominate each other to win this season for the Bundesliga trophy.
Everything can change, because it's not even a quarter of the season yet. I think Leipzig will join the race for the lead. Leverkusen and Stuttgart are also playing well so far and the most important thing is that they can keep up this pace. But I think Bayern and Dortmund will fight for the first place again this season.
None can predict what's going to happen with those clubs at the middle of season. I remember that some clubs were also performing as good as them last season. Bayern is now coming as a non strongest contender to win tiitle due to the a very strict competition to lead bundesliga at this moment. I would prefer to see bayern to face leverkusen instead of dortmund to battle for the title race. We may see more than two clubs compete each other to lead the competition this time.
The key is how consistent the performance is from players. There have been so many changes missed by dortmund to win the competition like last season. That's why thinking about having new candidates to win bundesliga was not so bad.
Let's see how leipzig can enjoy its journey to enter into the top 4. Leverkusen had been surpassing leipzig. it's amazing to see one a coach can change everything.
1085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: October 10, 2023, 04:04:08 PM

In terms of scheme and possession of the ball they are not lacking because PSG still always dominates in every match they do, it's just that the final solution still cannot be said to be good. They still need to maintain the chemistry of the players for this because sometimes poor finishing occurs because their attack line is not yet integrated.

PSG performances in the champions league against Newcastle United is unacceptable and Enrique is rightly feeling the heat. On the contrary, i think the manager is finding iot hard to build attacking or defensive rythm after signing lots of players at the start of the season. The coach definitely has to do better; with Bans coming up for few players including Muani; time is right for Enrique to proof himself.

PSG might be using the wrong strategy. PSG puts mbappe to play behind the striker which not become his favorit position. Enrique was adding ramos to play upfront against newcastle. The different strategy used by PSG once the club was facing rennes in the league 1. Rennes can do nothing in this match even though PSG had really bad record against rennes away. PSG was putting mbappe to play as left winger against rennes which was impressing anyone.

Enrique needs to understand never try to put the player out from his actual position or it will be only giving negative impact for the club. I think that enrique shall try to stop to do more experiments with his club.
Mbappe needs to play as a winger to ensure his effectivity against its opponent. Mbappe can move freely once he will able to stay at the left winger position.
Enrique needs to understand him even deeper. Mbappe is very good as a winger instead of attacking midfielder or striker.

regulation exist to give assurance to the customers, if exchange can be regulated, then many will have no doubt towards the investment.
the only thing that holds back many from investing is because unclear regulation towards the investment and the exchange themselves.
I guess with regulation everyone will be trusting more.
but its still unclear about the correlation though, no real research here so all that is just speculation.
1087  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading can ruin you on: October 10, 2023, 12:07:06 AM
Literally it ruined my peace of mind, many times I was really bothered of several situations like the old coins I had with zero value these days. I was wondering that bull run could take place once again, but it's kinda dream for now. Let's just keep it an inspiration, hopefully in perfect time we'll be able to survive this very rough situation that we've gone through.
We will be able to survive then if we never give up and lose our faith.
Many traders have quit as they didn't understand the market situation and it is a trader's behavior that stops us from achieving our goals. A reason why trading should be taken seriously and it needs focus and time. Trading could ruin us if we let it happen but if we are able to control our emotions and stick to our plan, nothing to worry about. We can't be great all the time nor we are profitable but we can do it well and become profitable if work hard.
honestly surviving bearish just require you to have other source of income and just forgetting the coin that value already going down so significantly.
its called being an investor, but of course for someone thats not patient enough it will be kinda hard. even more so for those traders that buy at high, the only choice they can make is just to wait for another bullrun.
i would say that its the disadvantage with trading, so mentally exhausting sometime the rewards isn't even suited and isn't even worth it.
thats why i already stopped being trading I don't think its good enough I prefer to increase income through my skills and also having jobs.

The harder easier games for Manchester united is no harder than that of Chelsea because, Newcastle, Fulham  even luton FC possess the elements of surprise to hold them to a draw or even win the match if there's so much laxity from the opponent.
Henceforth, Chelsea's recent performance seems to indicate promising progress. They've secured several victories, and their on-field gameplay has shown significant improvement. It appears to be a turning point for Chelsea, signifying that it's time for them to shine once more and compete with other strong clubs at full strength.
Three wins in a row. That's good when you have a inconsistent club. That means if there was a progress is happening for chelsea at this moment. Palmer was helping the club a lot in changing the rythm. Chelsea is having someone who can make a great pass to help the striker a lot.
Palmer was always able in making more assists. I think that this guy is complete version of kay havertz which has attacking midfielder as his actual position. I would like to see palmer played as attacking midfielder instead of winger.
Palmer considerable as one of successful transfer by chelsea last season. this guy is changing the club a lot. Chelsea needs only a great winger.

On the other hand, I observe that Manchester United's gameplay hasn't evolved rapidly. The synergy and strategies employed by Ten Hag still raise doubts about their ability to surpass the progress achieved by Chelsea. It seems like it will take Manchester United a bit more time to make the Big Matches even more exciting again.
So true. I consider the won against brentford was pure luck. Tominay has become a super hero in that match but the overall performance from manchester united was so bad.
The club can't even scoring a single goal in 90 minutes of gameplay. Everything about MU is still remain unpredictable at this moment.
1089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: October 09, 2023, 11:30:02 PM
Bellingham, Anceloti's most successful purchase of the season. Young is dominant and he shows great confidence. Next season, if it is true that Mbappe comes, maybe Real Madrid will be very strong. If you add Guller, maybe Madrid will play better. An early-season injury problem does not seem to have seen Madrid struggle. Tchouameni also performed quite well, he became a substitute defender. This is because Nacho cannot play due to card accumulation penalties.
It's sad guler was still injured. I expect him to make his debut as soon as once he will be fully recovered. Real madrid needs the last piece to complete its puzzle and that's a beast striker. Having bellingham as a beast guy in scoring for real madrid was very good but it would be far better if real madrid will able to add more striker that has great instinct in scoring against its opponent? Mbappe?Osimhen? They are all good. Real madrid needs a great striker who has great physic combined with instinct and positioning.

This club will become another club that will be dominating the football again like a few years ago. The new real madrid will be born once madrid will get the great striker who can make goals as many as possible in any match.
Im waiting for such moment to come. I saw that how enthusiast all of madrid fans when they were watching bellingham was always scoring in any match for real madrid. This guy is a great player even though his age was 20 years old.

I'm surprised to see the league table, Tottenham is currently in the top position even though Kane left the team.
Yes harry Kane is an important part of the team but what's a team if they can't move on after a player has left, I don't think a club would be considered big if they can't move on to success after losing a big player, even when Harry Kane was in the team Son has been doing well too he had always been able to score fantastic and important goals for Tottenham and the Harry kane's exit only made him have more confidence to step up his game. In general the new Coach has done a lot for the team and I hope they keep the energy through out the season.

But I think, if for example this season Tottenham were still using the same coach when Kane was still in the Tottenham squad, then it looks like Tottenham would not be as successful as they are now. Therefore, I think Tottenham's success at this moment is because basically Tottenham have new coach is Ange Postecoglou, basically Ange Postecoglou did not experience a long period with Kane. Therefore, Ange Postecoglou does not have a high dependence on Kane, so Ange Postecoglou can succeed in forming Tottenham with a great performance at this moment.
Ange changed the game play of totenham a lot. The game play was very different compared to last season. Totenham is now competing with arsenal at the first and second place.
The standing can change anytime since those clubs were not having big gaps to its competitors. Arsenal must also admit that if city was strong but martinelli surprisingly able helping the club in getting full points against it.
I would like to see arsenal and totenham to play on its best form right now. It surprises me how two clubs that rarely won anything competing between each other this season.

Barcelona have announced that one of their defenders, Jules Kounde, has suffered a left MCL sprain and he will be out for an unknown amount of time. Jules Kounde experienced this when playing against Granada and it seems that Barcelona will be quite disadvantaged by his absence in the next match, especially since at the end of October there will be an El Clasico match against Real Madrid. Of course Xavi will be very confused if he continues to lose his main players and we know that previously Lewandowski was also injured. Even so, at least Barcelona still has Ronald Araújo as a replacement for Jules Kounde so there are no problems for Barcelona's defense line.

Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1711344747611050164
Kounde's performance was even better compared with araujo. It's still a problem for barcelona. More players injured will give bad impact to the club. Barcelona had been always conceding so many goals. That makes the club looks like a weak club on its defensive line.
The injury that happened to the kounde was making the club even worst. Barcelona may have weaker defensive line for upcoming game. Real madrid can take this as oppotunity caused by the more injured players meant real madrid will able to make the gap even bigger in la liga.

I can't even imagine if there will be more players will face injury. This will be greatly impacting the performance from barcelona.

It seems we will unable to see barcelona to play with its best squad.

If those meme coins are scam coins, then they are clearly tarnishing the image of crypto. But we can’t tell that all meme coins are scams, some are even highly profitable than bitcoin but only for short term, as they are not advisable for long term hodling. However, with all the newbies coming in the market today, and majority of them are entering the market with greed, then it’s not really surprising for us that they will fall for these too good to be true meme coins and end up blaming the crypto market for their loss.
Not just meme coins, almost 99% of the crypto launched became scams or went to zero so it's not just limited to meme coin segment only but also NFT, BitcoinX, and tokens on various networks. But with meme coin especially Doge and Shiba lot of new people entered the market after the Bull run and Elon tweets which is the only thing that happened positively apart from people being taken advantage of by the shit coin projects as always.
honestly should differentiate between a true crypto and just some random shitcoin created out of thin air because otherwise it will just give unfair statistics like 99% of crypto are going to zero.
because if you judge from the fact that there are many innovative cryptocurrency out there like for example is the latest L2 also L0 its just really innovative that I don't think it will be hitting zero anytime soon.
moreover it will give clear definition between the difference of true crypto with shitcoins so that the image of crypto isn't tarnished.
regardless though the fact that there are so many shitcoin actively trying to find some greedy newbies to invest in their project is really making reputation of crypto in general bad its something we just know.
1093  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Should I keep my BNB or Sell it? on: October 09, 2023, 01:48:47 PM
When I started investing in exchange tokens, I bought Biance BNB and Bitget's BGB. Comparing both tokens now, BGB performed way better. A review by TokenInsight shows this. Secondly, following the recent regulatory issues and their exit from some regions, I personally can't say how it'll perform. I sold a portion of my BNB holdings.
maybe it has to do with the fact that BNB has risen a lot from first they introduced their Binance Smart Chain back then when NFT trend was still a thing and there are tons and tons of project that utilizes the fast transaction per second in which binance smart chain excels at like those blockchain gaming project and the likes.
after reaching their all time high they always went down hill, there might be reasons for it but I guess they are already valued too high enough that people already thinking that its overvalued.
therefore BNB isn't performing as good as the other I guess but thats just my 2 cents in regard of why BNB nowadays aren't performing as expected.
1094  Economy / Economics / Re: Early Retirement [Pros and Cons] on: October 09, 2023, 12:45:52 AM
We spend half of our lives working and the retire tired at 65 - 70. Those who retire early, 45 - 50 get to spend more time with family, friends, hobbies, and passions, as well as the opportunity to learn new skills, play instruments, engage in sports, and enjoy youthful activities. Its fun. Despite people saying that the lack of health insurance is a disadvantage to early retirement, I tend to think that an early retiree who may not be able to afford healthcare can opt for part-time employment to maintain affordable health insurance. Where this is not possible after a thorough thinking, then the individual must choose to continue working until it is sorted out.
I personally think that early retirement only suited if we already got all things for ourselves including health insurance at least money to pay for it and also getting passive income.
without those i doubt the early retirement will let us having good time considering we will have constant worries without source of income and there's many bills to pay.
therefore having passive income is I guess a thing that can't be underestimated when it comes to preparing early retirement.
i would say i wouldn't even dare to have retirement without all these things set up just to give ease of minds.

stablecoin has been indeed having massive growth in term of market capitalization that it far surpass many of the coins out there that its actually quite awesome on its own, even paypal a large company that dominates their own fields are now interested in getting that share of massive growth in stablecoin.
I do think that stablecoin can indeed helps growth of cryptocurrency market capitalization overall by utilizing the technology while also keeping the value from fluctuating that much.
overall as you said it could be the key to crypto dominance, but the benefits for cryptocurrency in general specifically bitcoin and etheruem i think can still be argued.
1096  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: October 08, 2023, 05:39:41 PM


Currently the odds for top 3 contenders for winning the Europa League title are like these:

- Liverpool : 4.00
- Roma : 13.00
- Leverkusen : 15.00

Liverpool are really the strongest team in the tournament by far currently. There are going to be teams coming from the Champions League also of course. But until then Liverpool will stay like this. They care about this tournament too considering their effort so far. Their priority is the Premier League of course that's why they have been subbing off their important players early in their games if they have a good advantage.

Liverpool have made big progress compared to last season by the way. This really deserves to be appreciated.  Smiley
For some reason, I am still quite the favorite for Roma to win the European League title this season and looking at the odds, it is certainly very tempting when compared to Liverpool. I feel that Roma still have a grudge that must be avenged in order to win this title after last season they lost to Sevilla and as we know Roma's defeat in the final was like cheating. That's why they have a mission to try to win this title once again and Mourinho certainly really wants to present the title to the fans because they know competing to win the Scudetto is very difficult. Regarding Liverpool, they are actually not really focused on the European league title and their main goal is to get a top 4 place in the domestic league, but if they can win the title at the same time, this can be considered a bonus.
The latest news has been informing that if mourinho is not feeling confidence anymore in roma. he had also said if he is willing to make a move for saudi pro league. Roma is always performing inconsistently. I dunno how big the chance owned by this club to win europa league but it's unlikely this season. Roma is now different compared with last season. There is something wrong with roma right now. The club is not playing the same like what it used to be last season. Lukaku has become the only hope owned by roma.

Roma may not able to go to the final like last season. This season is going to be even harder with some world class club participated in the europa league. This will not be easy journey for lukaku and friends.

However, there is another interesting fact that Milan has now added Giroud to the list of goalkeepers via their website and this looks like consolation after last night they fought very hard to win the match. Cheesy

Im seeing it as a respect showed by milan toward him. giround had made last-minute save for milan which was also very useful in helping the club to secure three points. I saw on his slow replay if giroud was blocking the ball with his hand. It surprises me how he had been offering himself to become a goal keeper till the game end. Im also praising him for his contribution as a goal keeper. Giround is still on fire even though he was aged.

Rennes vs PSG, which one you bet?
Neither from both of clubs.
I would prefer to take btts instead of PSG to win the game. PSG was rarely able winning the game against rennes when it was playing away. Rennes was also consistent on its performance. It can be seen from so many draws acquired by this tea

I can't understand when Rennes will play with a full squad, the match attend in their home, PSG was completely beaten by Newcastle, and PSG can't able to win against Clermont Foot. But, why Rennes is the underdog in this match? the odds Rennes to win is @4.00, that's really high.
The odds providers might have special reason they put rennes's odds very high. I can't even believe it rennes got 4 for this match. Betting on rennes is not that bad for someone who was willing to take the risk.
PSG was never winning against rennes when it was playing away since a few years ago. I think this trend will still continue.

I hope PSG will have same performance like when it was facing clermoont.

I have no reason to not bet Rennes.
So, did you pick PSG for this match?

Arsenal vs Manchester City match is going very hot!
The match is going well but there is a slight biases in some referee’s decisions Kovatic is supposed to sent off by now, but the VAR did not intervene or did not find it worthy.
With all indications, Arsenal can still win this match.

Manchester city can also win the match against arsenal. Arsenal has a very bad record against manchester city and look at the stat. Arsenal was not even able in creating a single goal attempt against manchester city.

The tension of this match is also very high. Manchester city was coming to the emirate stadium with strong club even though this club was missing KDB due to the injury but the defensive lines are performing consistently to prevent the attacking lines of arsenal. I hope that arteta will let havertz to get into the game and we may be able to see comedy from him. Some people are criticizing Nketiah for his poor performance in the game, but I personally want Manchester City to win instead of Arsenal.

The second half is about to start now. We may see goals to happen during the second half. Playing at emirates was not giving manchester city big pressure.

It seems like that arsenal was always avoiding to attack from the left side. martinelli was in.

What future do we really hope for altcoins without bitcoin?
I think a few altcoins will survive without Bitcoin but sure it will create some chaos if ever Bitcoin dies which I think will not happen, not even in a decade from now. I don't think it will dried up if it's on spot, maybe you've decided to try futures market without some knowledge behind it, that's too risky to take. Lesson learn try spot market and hold those coins/tokens, you have the best position now for the next bull market.
if bitcoin suddenly collapsing i have firm believe that the other altcoin also will collapse. why? simple, its because bitcoin is like the brand of cryptocurrency, its like the reason why people invest in the first place.
when bitcoin is collapsing, everyone would lose trust in other altcoin fearing that it will also collapse, remember the ftx collapse? quite literally any coin that was previously backed and invested by ftx heavily hardly could rise nowadays because people already don't believe these coins anymore.
therefore if bitcoin collapsing, every coin will at least lose 90% of its value until eventually many abandoned them.
