1121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: September 10, 2023, 11:52:12 AM
I think Real Madrid has enough experience when we are talking about players trying to negotiate better deals constantly.

But from a general perspective I think it is sad that a player like Mbappe does not play for a club like Real Madrid. We as fans would enjoy to see him playing for them. It's a waste right now. Imagine Haaland would play in Saudi Arabia. We would be shocked. PSG is not that bad, but it is still an inferior league where a talent like Mbappe is wasting his time. But yes, he is rich for sure. Cheesy


Real Madrid has talented and impressive players who have always done well throughout the years, even when Cristiano Ronaldo left. The players are constantly committed, and when it comes to negotiations, they always seek out better players who will have an influence and advance the team. Since Mbappe is still extremely young and enjoys many privileges at PSG, I'm confident that he won't receive any special treatment at Real Madrid. Mbappe quality fits in Madrid and he might have the opportunity to win the Champions league, but since he decided to stay in PSG the young man has his reasons and even without him the club is still doing very well.


I don't know why I really believe that one day Mbappe will play for the Real Madrid team, the best player in the world will play for the best team in the world, we just need to wait for the time, Mbappe is still very young and his time will still be very long.
And this season the Real Madrid team is really not looking for a star striker to replace the position left by Benzem, they really seem to be waiting for Mbappe.
 

I was aware that he had aspirations of playing for Real Madrid, but sometimes it's impossible to anticipate who will end up where. For example, you can think that Kylian Mbappe will play for Real Madrid in the future, but before you know it, the player has already committed to another team. Waiting for Mbappe is not the best option in my opinion. Instead, why not look for a player who is better than Mbappe? They will miss Karim Benzema to some extent because he gave his all for Real Madrid and because Madrid is currently leading the La Liga table. Barcelona is trailing, but this is still a new season, and the results will prove their assertion.

Wealth is could be earned by luck but it's not applicable to all people, so you would really need to earn it by working hard, being consistent, being knowledgeable and disciplined. So let's say that $50 dollar won't be enough for you to become wealthy to invest are you just gonna wait for your luck to achieve? People would literally take extra jobs or part time if you're a student just to have enough funds to invest. Well those examples you've mentioned might be needing a huge amount but little business would acttually a good start cause most successful person achieve it with experience. Luck and opportunity won't be siding on you if you can't even make an action to attain financial freedom.


When you say luck, I think of inheritance from a wealthy father or a family that has been wealthy for decades. With the state of the economy we are all in, it is very difficult to get lucky with wealth, but you can win the lottery or a gift, and these days no one is gifting anyone with money. If you are in this situation, the best thing to do is to get a job and gradually build your wealth.  And since the world is changing now its better to even work smart than work hard in some circumstances, our attention to be channeled to what aspect have  high demand. Small beginning are appropriated. But I feel 50 dollar is small to start up a good business currently. Either small or big management matters too.
1123  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should I go with Bitcoin or Altcoins for the upcoming bull run cycle? on: September 09, 2023, 06:57:28 PM
There is no need to go into Altcoin investment as there are chances of scams most of the time. If you want to make a smart investment, it is definitely better to invest in Bitcoin, in which case Altcoin can never be a smart investment. We think that now is a good time to invest as the price of various coins including Bitcoin market has decreased. If we invest from this bear market then surely it is a bull market and we will expect huge amount of profit. And if you invest from Bitcoin current time then you have to invest from $26k dollars. Although there won't be much profit now, if you wait until the bull market, you will more than double your profit. And if you invest the same amount of money in altcoin then surely there is a possibility of losing money in future. That is why you must invest wisely in the field of investment.


Most people investing in altcoin are also taking risk and feels like its an advantage taken, not knowing that some of this projects are time bomb that might explode anytime soon and most times what they do his give the project a good hype and people start investing from no were without background checks. Altcoin have too many scam projects and its not something you can rely on because  even the project can crash at anytime and people's money are lost. Invest in projects that are reliable and even if the profit is not huge but the security is covered and since you can buy bitcoin in fraction, accumulating gradually will help and you won't have to bother about the project crashing or ending scam, well said if the investor can wait for bull run then it will pay.

I've been experiencing the same issue of having a good cashflow and then there's an emergency that happens afterward that causes most of my funds to go into it and doesn't have a savings Again this situation always happens. To break the cycle I the increased the number of savings and watched videos what are the mistakes I've made in my decision so I can easily manage what are things need to avoid and do to make sure I can easily manage my money.

It's good too if you have a good network of business minded and successful man so you can learn from their experience. Currently, I'm attending a seminar on how lifestyle inflation matters.

Unexpected expenses are always unplanned and cost a lot of money when they happen. The other approach is still excellent to plan, and if it does not happen as planned then all is still well. Sometimes I feel like planning fails because you plan and finally end up doing something else. The problem is even if the economy is not favorable and the standard of living is high, the best that can happen is to increase your income and reduce costs but even at that saving should not stop anyone from taking proper care of our selfs

I think a loan deal probably to another league division entirely would make Maguire recover his form. Better still is if he were to attract offers from the Saudi pro league. It would be good money, more playing time with less pressure to perform coming from a defender. I think he would make a great big brother to the younger team mates too.
The offer to go on loan to Westham would have been good but he would have faded from recognition because the club wants to keep goals not lose them to careless defending. if it is because of recognition he still remains at Manchester United, then he's got this season to do it well.


Am sure Manchester united is looking for means to put Maguire to good use either selling him or giving  him out on a loan, I've carefully considered how to get him back to his former shape, and the question now is that which club do you suggest will help Maguire and which club will want him, am sure even Westham won't go for him with such a performance i don't think so, even Saudi will not think of buying him if you look at Saudi they always go for players that have name and still consider performance too. And eventually if he goes to Saudi then its more of the money than performance, less pressure compare to playing serious leagues like Premier league e.t.c. even now he has already faded the best thing like I always say he has made money, so he should just retire.
1126  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My decision on bitcoin on: September 08, 2023, 09:35:04 PM
I recently created a post asking if I should buy bitcoin now or wait for the dip, and majority of the response I got from the post, advised that I should buy now rather than waiting for the dip due to its volatile nature, and I'm satisfied with this response and I'm willing to bear the risk.
Reason for all these questioning, I have a dream of becoming a long term bitcoin holder but, dreams aren't achieved with words alone, an action is needed for the start up, so I have decided to sell one of my less used phone for the purpose of buying bitcoin.
I'm really eager to purchase my first bitcoin in satoshi.


That decision suppose to be personal if you have the strength and capacity in term of money, and if you want to hold for a very long time, then buying the dip will be the best and if the price goes up then your rest assured of the profit. And since everyone already knows the nature of bitcoin that it does not have a stable price once you have an opportunity the best thing is to make use of it, one of the major thing i see about bitcoin is learning  how to take opportunity. I love your ambition of been a long time holder it pays but make sure you have another source of income so you don't put to much eye on what has been invested. There are also financial principles while investing in bitcoin and that is why the knowledge is always important.

Manchester United supporters will always remember that bitter thing because the mistakes made by Harry Maguire who played at the back last season were not only fatal, but also very painful for the supporters of the Manchester United team themselves. Because without Harry Maguire making fatal mistakes at the back, perhaps Manchester United would not have lost, but it is something that has happened and will always be painful to remember every time.

At some point, I wondered what was wrong with Maguie He was better than this, so I wondered what had happened to him that he had become an unbearable situation that the club could not bear with after so many disappointments coming from Maguire, and the mistake of Maguire cost the club a lot and the problem now is that nobody wants to buy the player the only thing that is best for him now is to retire, if am not mistaking last season it got to the point Maguire was used for laughter for both the commentators and every other person because once Maguire is mentioned then there is trouble or he has already fucked up.
1128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: September 08, 2023, 02:20:26 PM
Can one ever be able to gamble with care? Can one ever hold himself while he is losing? All these are hard to achieve when one is at the losing end.It is very hard to hold one's emotions because money is involved.There is no man on earth that will be losing money,and be happy at thesame time,that is the spirit that controls Gambling,you can't win and go free without trying it again till the end is reached.
 
Yes, mate, it’s not really easy to be losing all the time and expect to stop doing that thing when you know one day you will win and earn money from such a thing. As for gambling, your mind will always be on a game that, when you place the bet on it, you will win, and that is why many people today still gamble even when they keep losing. But I think I will blame this kind of person, because what is the use of losing when you are not earning anything from such a thing? And this happens to people who depend on gambling, thinking it will be their source of income, or to people who borrow money to gamble. These kinds of people are the ones who gamble this way, so you can see that controlling yourself in gambling is very important that one is supposed to do anytime they gamble. If you gamble with a small amount of money, you will not even bother if the game cuts because you know losing the money will not result in anything bad.
1129  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Seeking Passive income offer with low risk on: September 07, 2023, 10:10:54 PM
I've been searching for an opportunity that will enable me to earn extra income to keep me afloat in anticipation of the bull run, but I've always hit a roadblock due to several reasons like low APYs, dicey processes, and high risk, etc. I'm more conservative with finances, so I would appreciate any suggestions on a passive income offer or product with low risk. Preferably, my capital would be protected, and the potential for growth would work well for me.
It's surprising that you have been in the crypto space for 4 years and are just joining the forum recently. We are currently in a bear market, and it started last year. Most traders are finding it difficult to make money, and I am sure you are also one of those traders. If you really want to stop stressing yourself out, then invest in bitcoin, because in the process of looking for wherever you will be making extra income, you might end up losing the amount you have left with you. What I will tell you is that just get a physical job and be doing, am sure you will be able to make money for survival from there, and the amount that you have left, just invest that amount in bitcoin and keep on holding it.

0 wins in 3 consecutive matches is proof that Luton Town is a team that is too weak in the Premier League. It is hoped that several of the players brought in will be able to make this team compete well in the competition, but it will be very difficult to expect them to rise and be in the top 10 of the standings.

Even before, I didn't expect much from Luton because I don't think they have a good squad that will really compete in this on-going Premier League competition, so their poor performance did not surprise me in any way. But currently, I think it is not only Luton that is playing badly, but I will say it is all promoted teams, I have not seen any of these promoted teams put in good performances. As a promoted team, I am always expecting them to always look like very strong and stubborn clubs that even if they can't win matches, they should always be trying to draw matches, but I have not even seen them with that effort. Let's see what will happen in like 8 of their matches. Maybe they are currently playing a team that is very big compared to other teams, so I like to see them playing average teams like them because I saw how Sheffield United played against Everton.
1132  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto or Real estate on: September 07, 2023, 02:44:45 PM
Which one do you prefer?
From the first place I saw the title of this thread, I thought it would end up in which one I prefer. Well, I will choose cryptocurrency, and even among the cryptocurrencies, I will choose bitcoin to invest in as it is the one that I think will be safer for me. The reason why I will prefer bitcoin to crypto is because I can start with a small amount of money and, with time, invest more once in a while, while real estate cannot be done with a small amount of money. If you really want your estate to look good, people should come and stay there. It will require significant amounts of money, so you can see that crypto will be the easiest one.

Everyone likes a new house or a flat to live in, so real estate and BTC should go hand in hand when it comes to investment. 
Sure. Everybody wants to leave in a good place, but real estate investment and bitcoin investment cannot be the same thing, even though both will generate profit. There is  difference, in my opinion. It will be kind of difficult to make  investment in real estate with a little amount of money since you stated that someone will love to live in a big and nice apartment. Can a big and nice flat be done using a small amount of money, like crypto investments? You know, with the current economy, it cannot be done. But when you talk about bitcoin investment, you can see that you will use a small amount of money and invest, and it will definitely generate profit.
1133  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin and get rich quick syndrome on: September 06, 2023, 10:04:12 PM
Years back when I started hearing about bitcoin, I used to think that it was very easy and a shortcut to success. This perception was informed by the way people projected bitcoin, that if you want to get rich quick, you should just go into bitcoin.
When most people are being introduced to bitcoin investment, they think it's so easy and that if they invest immediately,  they will make good profits. Most of them do hear from their friends that they are making money from bitcoin investments, and they won't care to know how it works. They will just end up jumping into the investments thinking they are going to make quick money there. After joining and losing money, they will start to understand that bitcoin investment is not a get rich quick scheme.

If you really want to make money with bitcoin investments, you should have patience and be able to hold them for a long time. After investing, you shouldn't expect profits in a few days or hours.

So do you think that I'm correct about bitcoin, that it is not an easy way to get rich quick as some people will make believe, and it is just like other ventures where there is no guarantee of getting rich?
The only people that will think bitcoin investment is a get-rich-quick scheme are those who haven't invested in bitcoin yet, but people that are already in bitcoin know that you can't make quick money from bitcoin investment. If you are in a rush to look for quick money, then you might end up losing money in the process.

Arsenal team is in good form at the moment. The attacking players of the team are performing well. A review of the performance of the last few matches shows that the Arsenal team is in a good position.
Arsenal won their last match against Manchester United, but that does not mean they are in good form. I am not saying that Arsenal's performance is not good this season, but their performance currently can’t be compared to last season. Arsenal have played four matches, and they won three, but I can say they struggled to win the three matches they won. They are always dominating the match, but they are always finding it difficult to score, which at the end means they always end up winning with a slight goal margin. I am not really impressed by Arsenal's performance this season yet.


Seriously though, Arsenal is not performing up to the standards set by their supporters. Because they believe Arteta has signed the best player who will help Arsenal improve more and achieve their goals, fans are expecting a very great performance from the team more than they did last season. However, given the way Arsenal have started this season, fans have not seen any more improvement from the team than they did last season. As Stable090 noted, Arsenal has been winning games but has struggled to score goals. However, I think it their weak attacks is what is course that their low performances of scoring goals but I see that their have improved in that attacking against Manchester United, and I hope that they keep doing so.

Reason why many fail for scam is because they are looking for investment instead of just holding Bitcoin and wait for it value to appreciate organically,  there is no doubt that DCA approach is good but then also if a newbie os not careful you could lose along the line of DCA so DCA is out of this discussion,  but let dive into something more realistic taking recent happenings with so many investment scam,  exchanges ditching off their clients money and so many other scam projects platform and signals that are notable bad actors in the market.

Just a friendly advice!

Most people are always looking for places where their Bitcoin can be invested to yield more profits, but at the end they are going to be scammed. I don't really know why people are always desperate to make money. Bitcoin investment is kind of easy, just buy your Bitcoin and hold it, and make sure you do the necessary things that you are supposed to do. Never trust anyone that introduces you to any Bitcoin investment platform, all of them are scams, they just want to steal the Bitcoin that you are planning to invest in the platform.

Don't trust an exchange with your Bitcoin investment. When holding Bitcoin, it should be in your non-custodial wallet and not your exchange. It's not safe to leave your Bitcoin on an exchange.

I'm not finding anything too serious with this Barcelona team any more, a match you think they'd win easily is the match they'll struggle to win. I was trying to see something special from this young lads but they're not leaving up to expectations with the manager who have so much hope and think he could bring back those glorious days but the reverse is the case.
 I think Lewandowski is losing his scoring form with him missing a penalty at this crucial time would be worrisome, is age catching up with him or what. If Barcelona get to play against teams like Madrid with what I'm seeing I think they won't survive Real Madrid, if they can't beat Osasuna then it will be hard for them this season.

Barcelona heat is already getting cold and their display is no longer getting interesting, sometimes They usually underestimate the capacity of their opponent and when it happens like that, you see them struggling to win and things like this don't only happen to Barcelona alone but also some other clubs. Lewandowski needs more players to support him for his performance to be installed just like before, and in football ball, you can be the best forever and age is contributing but at least they won.

It must be admitted that Arsenal is now not like last season's Arsenal, they continue to make changes and the latest updates, their comeback is very cool. But according to my analysis, in this big match, if Var had checked, Lindelof should have received a red card. I saw he was the last player in Man United's defense, if he wasn't fouled, he would run and face the goalkeeper. The issue of missing the penalty is still a matter of debate, in my opinion it was fifty-fifty, then Megalhaes' cleverness in holding his body so that he put Garnacho in an offside position was also a good instinct.

This is the most fatal, in my opinion Man United seemed to start panicking when they fell behind and wanted to immediately equalize the score, and in the end they were too offensive so Arsenal could kill the game. For some reason, after Arsenal's second goal, the game got longer. Until Arsenal were able to increase the score in 90 + 11 minutes despite 8 minutes of added time

Am loving the way Arsenal is improving from the first half I was even scared that Arsenal might lose this game because Manchester United was also playing well during the first half and the attempts coming from Rashford were not bad, l was impressed in a way, maybe the referee just decided to ignore Lindelof action that is why he did not bother consulting the var, and I was impressed with arsenals performance this period unlike sometimes manchester city is two point ahead of Arsenal if we can go to the second position then we are gradually going and only have manchester city to battle with and I know there will be a difference this time around.

This night I came across a comedy on Facebook and this comedy was too funny to my linking but I am not here to talk about the funny side of the comedy but the main reason why I chose to bring it up to bitcointalk.org is because they used Bitcoin as a payment method on the comedy, although it might be just acting to some persons but to me it not because it shows that the awareness of Bitcoin is going viral on social media.
In this video is just like someone needing the help of a neighbor and the neighbor was asked to call his BTC (Bitcoin) address so he can get paid for his service, if you are interested to watch this is the link to the video, on this video I come in conclusion that the awareness of BTC (Bitcoin) is spreading rapidly in the society through the help of the social media and some celebrity investors too, firstly I dropped a thread about some Nigerian celebrity investors. and now another one on board.
BITCOIN IS LEADING.

The way Bitcoin is spreading is shocking because if you go to the street and then do a survey on people asking if they have heard about Bitcoin the response will shock you, and if you listen to most of the songs that musicians sing you will know that bitcoin is going viral and spreading like fire.  and the information started from the internet and other means are dedicated to sharing the word which is good just that we should make sure what we are sharing corresponds with the truth. And the way the word is spreading the embracement of Bitcoin is also increasing which is the goal.
1139  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Advantages of Bitcoin over fiat and local banks on: September 02, 2023, 09:53:33 PM
Financial freedom is not the same as financial security. Bitcoin gives you control, but its value is not stable, it's not backed by something that you can predict. Bitcoin showed great performance in the past, but there is no proven model that can guarantee same performance in the future. Or even good performance. You can say that fiat can crash too and be right, but any asset can crash. So the key to managing wealth is diversification between many different uncorrelated and reliable assets, instead of going all in on one thing.

the two are totally different and the truth of the matter is that there is no way fiat and local banks can be left out of the picture, Bitcoin and local banks are on the same line but have different functionalities, and the advantage Bitcoin has is the fact that you are in full control of your asset, not your key, not your coin but another thing is that the percentage of financial security I think local banks can held responsible if anything should go wrong and both bitcoin and banks have there advantages and disadvantage. and I don't think anyone can do without fiat.


Bitcoin give financial freedom to many people most the freelancers,the people population in almost all the countries had huge compared to the last decade.But the employment to the people was not increased with the increase in population.So many people became a freelancer to work for their livelihood.The forum give those people income and the bitcoin give them financial independence.Some people doing the cryptocurrency trading for the full time to support their families.In one or many ways bitcoin helping the people to earn some money.

Financial freedom has helped a lot of people because opportunities are opening up in different windows. Thank God, the world is changing, and since the government is finding it difficult to provide jobs, a lot of people are diversifying to freelance work where you can sit in the comfort of your own home and earn. And the growth in population is complicating matters because the administration is not considering alternative ways to keep people employed. That is why many individuals are eager to accept Bitcoin now that it has a means. And the greatest thing to do is to think of the box and engage in several modes of income.

Am not sure that people will bet on Nottingham Forest to win but am sure that there will be some people that will bet on Nottingham to score at least one goal which I also did and it happened because when I check their games played against Arsenal and Manchester united and they was able to scored against this teams, I just believe they will try their possible best to next Chelsea even they did not win the game but seriously I lose because other did not played as I predicted it.


The majority of people will go for a straight win for Chelsea since everyone believes that Chelsea has improved and that Nottingham can do nothing to Chelsea in assumption of people, All my thought was that Chelsea would win I did not place any bet, and was hoping that Chelsea would win against them, Nottingham and some other clubs are really scaring me this season Brighton and Tottenham etc. this season is not going as predicted at all
