Athletico Madrid is now possessing the 2nd place in the standing and this is really unhealthy for Madrid. The lose points against Villareal and Girona really contributes to Real Madrid misfortune. It would be worst if not for they Copa del ray title cuz They now seem to channeled all focus on The UEFA champion league.  But it will be so frustrating for a big name like Carlo Anceloti if he loses against Manchester city in the semi final and thereafter not succeed in the 2nd place in La liga standing.  
Real Madrid mission in the Copa Del Rey has been completed, now they can focus more on the Champions League when they host Manchester City in the first leg. Losing second place is a setback for Real Madrid, but it will not make Real Madrid lose its strength even though it is unable to end the season as Runner-up.

Ancelotti is well aware that his team's chances of becoming champions in La Liga are closed, now he is more focused on the Champions League to reach the final. His status as defending champion will make Real Madrid even more excited when they face Manchester City at the Bernabeu, his current mission is to win the title after successfully finishing on the podium in the Copa Del Rey.

What do you think about the AC Milan team? I don't think SME Loans can secure a victory against Inter Milan in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Because Inter Milan is performing very well in other leagues. But luck can't be told AC Milan can luckily secure the victory. It is not possible to predict the semi-finals.
It's not easy to make predictions for these two teams in the semifinals of the Champions League if you look at the performances of the two from their respective leagues, because these two teams are very close in their own league standings with a number of points that are not much different so I just assume that their matches in the semifinals of the Champions League this time it can take place more fiercely by exerting all the abilities they have.
The statistics of the two teams in all competitions, Inter are superior to Milan. Inter managed to wipe out all matches with wins in the last 5 matches, while Milan were only able to win 2 matches and 3 draws. This season the competition between Milan and Inter is still ongoing in two competitions. In Serie A, the two are still competing for a ticket to the Champions League next season, while in the Champions League, these two teams both have a mission to reach the Champions League final.
Statistics for both places Inter as the favorites even though the match will take place at Milan headquarters, this match will be played at a high tempo due to the competition between the two teams who are city rivals.

Messi-less PSG secured a 3-1 win over Troyes, 19th in the points table. Lionel Messi was sidelined for the match against Troyes due to suspension. As PSG's midfield is relatively weak, PSG focused a lot on the midfield in this match. The midfield star formed an attacking unit against Troyes with 5 players. S. Ramos played his best in the central bank position. PSG got over 91% accurate passes from him in today's match and he was the most rated player in the match.

Following this win, PSG has extended their six points lead and stay at the top of Ligue 1. Troyes, sit in 19th place in the points table, have not managed to win any of their last six games. So, it may not be the most impressive result vs a weak team with a two goals difference victory, it's still important three points for them. After all, they had previously lost to a team that was placed 10th in the league, so there was always the possibility of another upset. However, on this time, PSG put in a solid performance and managed to get victory against Troyes.
PSG easy victory over Troyes further increased PSG chances of winning the 2022/2023 Ligue 1 season, an additional three points making PSG six points ahead of its closest competitor Lens. PSG only need two wins and a draw to secure their position and become champions this season. The next two matches are very easy for PSG considering that the opponents facing AC Ajaccio are in the Relegation Zone, while other opponents Auxerre are still struggling to stay away from the red zone.
The player material owned by PSG and its focus is only on Ligue 1, it is certain that PSG will succeed in adding to the coffers of the title this season.

Liverpool, like Chelsea, are performing poorly this season, but Liverpool were able to pull themselves together at the end of the season and now they are in really good form... I think Liverpool will win this home game against Brentford... As for Chelsea, I also think they can lose away to Bournemouth... I never thought I would write this about Chelsea, but unfortunately I do...

Chelsea could have follow in Liverpool's lead to a comeback in the weeks before the end of the season if they can resolve this situation faster, but unfortunately the internal issues within the club is still not fully resolve, and that is also the current obstacle to Chelsea
Until the first half break, the score in the Bournemouth vs Chelsea match had not change 1-1
Seeing the results of the matches that Chelsea have gone through and the difficulty of winning over Bournemouth made it difficult for Chelsea to follow in Liverpool footsteps. After appointing Lampard as caretaker coach, Chelsea are not much better than before. The problem that Chelsea is currently facing is not the players, management has brought in several quality players to improve Chelsea performance, but the coach cannot take advantage of the players in the Chelsea squad.

Lampard again failed at the second opportunity given by Chelsea management, he could not live up to the club's expectations and is still having trouble finding the best strategy for Chelsea. There is no other way but to find the right coach to improve the quality of Chelsea game next season. Chelsea shortcoming is not in the players but the problem is in the coach.

A really interesting matches today between the teams at the top of the standings... I predict that Milan will lose the home game against Lazio as Inter will lose the away game to Roma... Milan will play with Inter in the Champions League soon, so I don't think they need any risks in Serie A right now... Of course everyone needs points to guarantee themselves European Championships next season, but maybe Champions League semi-finals are more important now...
Looks like your prediction missed this time, Milan managed to get full points that boosted its position to fourth place. The additional three points are very important for Milan, who are targeting to end the season in the top four. Inter, who dropped to fifth after being pushed aside by Milan, will be playing at full strength at the Olimpico to take back fourth place. Roma also set a winning target at their own base, the chance to finish in the Champions League Zone is still open for Roma, especially when they can get an additional three points when hosting Inter. It is difficult to predict the outcome of the Roma vs Inter match, both teams are fighting to win in order to finish in the Champions League zone.

In another match that was no less exciting (Atalanta vs Juventus), the defeat that had just befallen Lazio made Juventus have the opportunity to move up to second place. Atalanta also set another target, a win must be obtained to give competition to Milan, who is currently in fourth place. If Atalanta can get full points from Juventus, the number of points they have collected is the same as that already collected by Milan.

A simple explanation but very interesting for people who so far have only heard of Bitcoin from news spread in print and electronic media. Introducing Bitcoin through cartoon-style animation to the general public, especially those who don't understand Cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, is one of the good ideas from creators to spread information about Bitcoin.
This method has become one of the new styles to attract fans, even though the method is simple, it is very interesting to watch. Watching cartoon-style animation is more interesting and less boring, like reading the explanations in several articles.

To the greatest extent possible, you should always avoid keeping BTC (or anything else) in online accounts. This is especially important right now because a very large exchange went bankrupt recently;

Always store assets in the wallet only you hold the private key, without the private key, it is not your asset. Asset security is the responsibility of each individual, you can choose any wallet that you think is safe to store assets there.

If only they had been like this since the start of the competition, then maybe we would have seen them competing for the title, but the fact is that they have difficulty being consistent to win. But now the situation is much better than before, now they can slowly occupy the top 5, maybe it's a little late for them, because there are only a few matches remaining now. But at least they can compete for a place in European competition next season.
Liverpool have been a bit late warming up the engine in this season's competition. After experiencing a bad period at the start of the season, Liverpool now have the opportunity to finish fifth which can lead them to the Europa League competition. Liverpool situation is getting better, they are 5 points ahead of Tottenham who are still trying to appear in the Europa League. The number of points collected by Liverpool is very profitable for them, Mo Salah and friends only need three more wins to secure their position. This situation can still change if Tottenham lose points in the next match, Klopp must not disappoint the Anfield public for the second time after Liverpool failed to enter the UCL zone.

Shrinkflation is practice of reducing the size of a product while maintaining its sticker price.

I hate it when companies reduce quantity (and often quality too) of product to sell it at same price as before to combat inflation. Oh and don't forget those, "30% Extra" labels.

Inflation makes everything rise, so might as well keep the original quantity and just increase the price.

Do you agree? How would you combat inflation if you were running a company?
The phenomenon that occurs in the midst of society, especially the lower middle class, is more accepting of a decrease in quality than having to buy it at a slightly higher price. Inflation has pushed consumers into unfavorable choices, people who have an above average amount of wealth may not be affected by inflation too much.

The company will implement a marketing strategy that can connect with all consumers, from the highest level to the lowest level, under any circumstances the company will try to sell its products. I prefer quality over quantity, when quality decreases it will affect consumer confidence in products that make purchasing power decrease.

A newbie resolve can waver very quickly when the media spreads negative news about Bitcoin, the small correction that occurs can make him scared and start thinking that he will lose some of the money invested in Bitcoin. The level of courage of investors who are new to Bitcoin is very diverse, some are resilient even though the wave is receding, some are starting to panic due to negative issues.

Those who are told about the benefits of investing don't fully understand the conditions that occur with Bitcoin, naturally they panic at the beginning of their journey. There is no guarantee that you can get profit on Bitcoin as you wish, especially at a predetermined time, market conditions really determine which direction you need to pay attention to, sell by taking the risk of loss or holding out until the price moves up again.
1091  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing Addiction. on: May 04, 2023, 12:23:42 PM
This discussion is not about gambling, it is about investing, but I will use gamblers to make an example.

Using gamblers as an example who start out with just the intention to have fun maybe and then along the line turn into addicted gamblers that gambling begin to affect other areas of their life like their wellbeing like they stop spending on some important things just so they can make money available for gambling. Now talking about investing, I think it is possible to become addicted to investing so much that it begins to affect your wellbeing, like the person stops spending on other important things like good food, good clothes etc. just so they can have more money to invest? Do you consider that kind of addiction dangerous and not good?
That is the reason it is highly not recommended to invest using money that is a basic need or to finance daily life. Using the example of a gambler's addiction and an investment addiction there is no close connection between the two, the adrenaline rush produced from these two addictions is very different.

Gambling addicts can sometimes be at gambling venues for hours just hoping for a win. Gambling will not drain a person's well-being as long as they can control themselves. Addicted to investing because often get profit. IMO
Someone will not invest all of their money under any circumstances, they will leave some of their money to buy things that are considered necessities of life.

Today in Italian League Juventus vs Lecce two teams have come to the field to play. Everyone is worried about which team will win today's match. Nothing can be said until this game is over. But I think the team that can perform well today will win the match.  There is a big chance. And after a short time, the game will be at half time. It seems that neither team will be able to score before half time. I am having a lot of fun enjoying this match now.

Congratulations to Juventus for the opportunity they embraced to defeated Lecce 2-1 to moved to third position in the Italian league competition table. Many people predicted for draw match,because the two teams are well organized in the field to display what will make their fans to be happy but Juventus changed the game at 40 minutes to scored the second goals to reduced the strength of their opponent. Based on what happened in this match showed that it will be difficult for Juventus to win this Italian league title because their performance in this match really weak many fans the way they struggle to defeat Lecce.
The win over Lecce was very important for Juventus in maintaining the chance to end the season in the top four. Juventus and several other teams have completed 33 matches, there are still the next 5 matches that must be the main focus of Juventus to have the opportunity to appear in the Champions League next season. Currently Juventus are only one point behind Lazio in second place, while Juventus are three points ahead of Inter who are still in fourth place.

The Serie A standings table can still change in the next 5 matches because Atalanta, Milan and Roma still have a chance to finish in the top four. Teams that want to appear in the Champions League next season must play consistently in the remaining matches this season so that their position is secure.

Getting closer and it looks like this is what will happen for Madrid in their midfield with Jude as a new hope next season.
Modric is still very much relied on for now for Madrid but he is not young anymore and of course there must be a successor.
There's Camavinga in the name but now he prefers to play deeper at left back. and of course Jude can now be included under Vini as a replacement for Modric later if he doesn't play.

But there is still no "Here we go" as Fabrizio's identity, so this still has to wait even further it seems Smiley
Modric is still a mainstay of Real Madrid in midfield, but Real Madrid cannot count on him for the next few years due to his old age. Bellingham presence in midfield could be a solution when Modric is injured or no longer playing at Real Madrid.
Camavinga also has the potential to develop even better in the future, he and Bellingham can become Real Madrid mainstay in the midfield. Real Madrid also have to find an ideal replacement for Karim Benzema, his contribution to Real Madrid is unquestionable, however, because recently he has been injured very often and is getting older, Real Madrid must immediately look for younger players on the front lines.

Snip.
Manchester City will become favourites team in that matcth, considering that this match will also be held at home in front of fans, so Manchester City will not disappoint their fans. And in my opinion, Manchester City possibility will get three points, because they will also be motivated to win by seeing that Arsenal which are now back on the lead. But I hope you are right West Ham can surprise in this match, by making it difficult Manchester City to got three points.
After two defeats in the last two games played by West Ham, I'm not sure West Ham can surprise at the Etihad stadium. Manchester City are very motivated to win in this match because they want to return to the top of the standings after being taken over by Arsenal who just won over Chelsea. The win over West Ham is very important for Manchester City in winning the EPL Title this season, I think Manchester City will not make any mistakes in this match because the extra three points are very important for them.

From a different point of view, I don't think Real Madrid should have lost without the intention of winning the match. They had tried to score, but unfortunately they couldn't make it until the end of the match. Dani Carvajal's red card was certainly not expected, it has ruined Real Madrid's plans in that match. But I agree that Real Madrid and their coach have rested some important players for the Champions League Copa Del Rey final, but after all Real Madrid's defeat is certainly very not fun.

I think Ancelotti is already very focused on the Copa Del Rey final against Osasuna, so I think it's only natural that Real Madrid's form is not as strong as expected because they are not playing with their best squad. The Copa Del Rey final and Champions League first leg are more important for Ancelotti than winning La Liga match so I hope they can play and achieve their target this season.
The list of players released against Real Sociedad did not include the names Benzema, Modric, Alaba and Vinicius. After I checked the Real Madrid squad list, three of them were injured, while Vinicius received an accumulation of yellow cards. Ancelotti is more focused on the CDR and the Champions League than on La Liga, which Barcelona is almost sure to win, besides that due to the many injured players, Real Madrid cannot play at full strength.
The results achieved by Real Madrid have made Barcelona lead the standings with a 14 point advantage, Barcelona need one more win to seal the La Liga trophy.

I am curious. How many of you also stack gold and silver in addition to BTC as a hedge for inflation?
Apart from investing in Bitcoin, I also bought a few grams of gold as a hedge, this I did nothing to do with inflation. I buy gold from the profits I get from investing in Bitcoin, the goal is that the profits I can freeze on assets that have a relatively stable value.
Selling gold is also very easy around where I live, in just 10 minutes it can be exchanged into money. While the Bitcoin that I have remains at authorized capital, if there is another opinion in real life, I will increase the investment amount if the Bitcoin price is suitable to buy.

You invite us to do business, that's great. In doing business, the concept is to get as much profit as possible, including gas expenses. To invest in gas costs, many platforms are available, apart from the ETH network, there are several other reliable networks.

The ETH network is known for its high gas fees, why bother buying ETH when there are other platforms that offer cheaper gas fees. I used to be no stranger to the ETH Network, after the arrival of Binance Smart Chain (BSC), I prefer to switch to the BNB network because it offers cheaper gas fees.

Keep accumulating crypto and you will reap the rewards in the future!
Here you use the words "continue to collect crypto", I will make it simpler by "continue to collect Bitcoin". Bitcoin has become the most popular investment medium among other cryptos and when Bitcoin made it to the moon to achieve ATH of all time, some of the other cryptos didn't even have a significant impact from the increase experienced by Bitcoin.
In terms of investing in crypto assets, I prefer to use the portfolio management method to achieve investment goals, of course Bitcoin is my top choice, the rest is filled with other cryptos that have been tested on the market.

Five points is not too much especially when you think PSG had unstable results and lose many points in the games they normally should win, I think still there is a higher chance for PSG to lose points in the fine remaining games and Marseille can even use the chance to even win the title in this season, if that happens this can be a nightmare for PSG because they spend lots of money and they got nothing in the end.

5 points may not be a big difference. Even so, PSG is still the most likely to win the title. Because each team will play only 5 matches this season. And it is unlikely that PSG will lose more than two of the 5 matches and their main rivals Marseille will win all of their matches. PSG's opponents in the upcoming matches are relatively weak. And I guess PSG will win all their upcoming matches. Marseille, on the other hand, have won all their last three matches. However, they have lost points in their previous two matches. It is very difficult for a team like Marseille to maintain the winning streak in the next 5 matches.
5 points ahead of Marseille, which is in second place, is not completely safe for PSG. If they play like they did when they were defeated by Lorient, PSG will be in danger of losing their position. PSG needs to win four of the remaining five matches, the next four matches that PSG will play are fairly easy, PSG can win easily if you look at the strength of the team they will face.
After the loss to Lorient, Galtier must not make any more mistakes in at least the next 4 matches. PSG can secure the Ligue 1 title if they can get an additional 12 points in the remaining five matches.
