Liverpool has just scored a beautiful goal and it’s just the 17 minute into the game. A beautiful strike scored by Salah after in what I saw as a defensive blunder by the City defenders.
I honestly didn’t see the early goal scored by Liverpool coming and I think this should be a wake up call for City players. I think they’re a bit shaken by the early goal and they do need to sit up and not allow the game to go into the half time with Liverpool leading. I believe Manchester city would equalize and come back into this game.

Arsenal do need to be consistent and strive to win their games to stay ahead of Manchester City. And I think Manchester City is consistent enough to try and win most of their matches remaining and gather up points. Arsenal on the other hand would need to strive and stay points ahead from Manchester City.
City had their attention somewhat divided between the games in the premier league as well as playing in the Champions League while Arsenal could stay entirely focused on the premier league games.

I think CBDCs might just have a place in the gambling world. Online Casinos, in a bid to attract new players would evolve and become more innovative. I think casinos would make allowances for CBDCs as a mode where you could make deposits and withdrawals to attract players who would prefer to use them.

I also don’t think the inclusion of CBDCs into the gambling scenes would affect the use of cryptocurrencies in any way. Players using cryptocurrencies to play games would still prefer to use cryptocurrency cause of its anonymity and ease of transactions.

Underestimating your opponent is a drastic mistake that can later cost you so it’s safe to say we should not underestimate Chelsea going in to the match with Real Madrid. Chelsea do have the potential to win a game against Real Madrid but it’s going to be a difficult one.
Personally, I think it would be difficult for Chelsea to win the game against Real Madrid. I do not underestimate them or their abilities, I just don’t think it would be enough to take them any further.

Kante is a good asset to Chelsea. I like the way he plays and I think he’s as instrumental to Chelsea as De Bruyne is to Manchester City. He would definitely be a good addition to the squad.

You’re probably right. If Neymar had staked €1m and won, it would definitely would have motivated a lot of people to stake money as well. It would encourage people to stake much more than they usually would do.
I know the money lost by Neymar would not leave a dent on his pockets as he earns a whole lot more but I guess it’s a good thing people saw him lose money. It would perhaps make a player willing to use whatever savings he has accumulated to stake to change his mind. You win some, you lose some.

Yes, Manchester United because of their form then, was the favorites going into the match with Liverpool. Despite all that, Liverpool dominated the game and went on to win the game with an impressive margin too. I had hoped United would win that game.
Liverpool going into a game with Manchester City would probably be a bit difficult for Liverpool. I agree Liverpool is a strong opponent and Pep must also be careful with his plans. While the outcome of the game is still highly unpredictable, I still perceive a Manchester City win.

I don’t really think it has been difficult to analyze the match between Manchester City and Liverpool. Manchester City is the favorites to win and rightfully so too. City has been impressive in their performance, winning games and striving to reach and if possible overtake Arsenal at the top of the league table. That doesn’t look like a team that would be willing to lose to Liverpool any time soon. Apparently, Liverpool is also a top club but I wouldn’t say it’s hard to say they would lose the match cause it’s not. Liverpool would most likely score a goal but would go on to lose the game at the end.

Chelsea already has no hope in the premier league this season and now playing against Real Madrid in the Champions League, their stars surely isn’t bright. Chelsea performance hasn’t been top notch lately and in my opinion, they don’t stand a chance going in to play Real Madrid with the current form they’ve got.
With the current form Madrid is playing at, they would still have to be serious going in as Chelsea isn’t a small team either despite their current form. After all, while others have been defeated, they’ve still made it so far to the quarter finals of the Champions League.

I guess most people would rate the match between Manchester City and Liverpool more important and perhaps more exciting than the Arsenal vs Leeds game. And yes, it does seem easy for Arsenal to claim this win and bag the 3 points. Arsenal would want to keep up the pressure, win as much games as they can in the remaining games they’ve got to play and try to have as much distance from second place Manchester City as they can.
Both Leeds and Liverpool would have to fight really hard to and win against their opponents.

Man city does need to win and try to catch up to the league leaders and on paper, it sure doesn’t look too good for Liverpool. Almost everyone says it would be like a walk in the park for Manchester City to win the game. After all, they’ve got the star boy Haaland on the squad lol.
While I think Manchester City is strong enough and very capable of winning the game, I wouldn’t underestimate Liverpool and think it would be easy for a City win. I believe Klopp would prepare the best he can but would it be enough to stop City?

The highly anticipated game between Manchester City and Liverpool is drawing closer. In my opinion, Manchester City seems to be the better of the two and has more probability to win, I would not say it is certain they would win the game as Liverpool could also spring some surprises. While I still think Manchester City would go on ahead to win the game, I would like to think Liverpool wouldn’t give in so easily hence the game would be an interesting one. Haaland is an amazing player, no doubt but he’s just one player. There’s only so much he can do on his own. He’s very good and all that but he still needs the help of his teammates to score goals.

Yeah, I’m also looking forward to the end of the international break and i am so looking forward to the game between Manchester City and Liverpool. Man city would in my opinion, most likely go ahead and win the game and I just want to see how they do it. It would be exciting to watch.
I also think some new and young recruitments would go a long way in helping to generally improve the club. Klopp is no doubt a great manager that can always be relied upon.

I wholeheartedly agree and respect your opinion on renting a place that’s much closer to your place of work than having to commute from your village.
Understandably, getting a job in the village with an organization that’s located in the city would be very difficult as most employers would want their employees within reach at most times.

Fortunately for you, you’ve landed a job in the city. While it pays less than city standards, it definitely wouldn’t be the same rate you get for jobs back in the village. If it isn’t, you would not be so willing on renting.
Perhaps you might consider having a roommate. That could help reduce costs and improve on your savings.

Why would anyone share a video about quitting your job online? It just doesn’t make any sense to me. I get it, we all want a better work environment with a better pay and all that and if you aren’t getting that at your place of employment, it’s within your rights to quit.

Actions speak a lot louder than words and the manner and behavior in which you choose to exhibit when quitting would tell others quite a bit about you. Then you’ve got to go ahead and put it on the internet for everyone, probably including your next employer to see.

You may very intend on passing along a message with your quitting video about standing up for a right to better working conditions with pay but your message could also be interpreted differently by other people who would then start to generate a not so good opinion of you.
This hashtag might probably be highjacked by trolls seeking views and attention and ruin the purpose(if any) for its existence.
Sadly, I think people might follow this trend to quit their jobs and post it online simply cause others are also doing it the same way people have been blindly following others.

Many Congratulations to you OP. I think it’s a good achievement that you’re a home owner. Now, you can save up on the money formerly used in paying rent. And I know how renting can be a huge strain on ones finances.
I think it’s also great that you did so with the help of bitcoin. You can add this to the list of achievements bitcoin has started to and would later help you achieve.

While bitcoin has helped you achieve your goal of having your own home, I think you also did a good job in holding  onto bitcoin that ultimately helped you pay for your home cause not everyone has perseverance holding onto bitcoin for the long run.
Congratulations

A short summary on what went down.
1. Four Americans crossed the border and went into Mexico for a medical procedure(not sure all of them needed the procedure)
2. They were shot at and later kidnapped
3. Unfortunately, two died.
4. The Cartel, knowing the shit storm they’re about to come under quickly condemned and disowned the actions of the perps, forwarded an apology letter along with the guys who were responsible.

Here’s a link to an article.

I particularly liked your first point about bitcoin not being a get rich quick scheme as there is a staggering number of people that do believe bitcoin is a get rich quick scheme and then when their expectations aren’t met, they would then tag bitcoin as a “scam” and go on to ignorantly tell anyone who cares to listen on how they lost money through bitcoin. It’s crazy on how many people continue to think like this.

I would partially disagree over your 3rd point. Personally, I try to stay away from alt coins and I don’t bother myself with them. But I know people that, having profited from alt coins would disagree with you. I do think they have their uses as well.

In my opinion, a newbie or anyone else wouldn’t be easily deceived or manipulated if only they take out some time to do some research for themselves. And that’s the first advice I would give anyone; Do your own research and not having to rely on some vague information that you heard someplace. People can be misleading and mischievous. Doing one’s own research would help steer you away from most of these mischief makers.

Like you said, it’s just like the banks. They would refuse anyone with a low credit score cause the person is not trusted enough to repay such loans.
I think you’re one of the lucky ones cause you haven’t had a relationship ruined cause of repayment of a loan. Money has divided a lot of people. I know.

I also think it’s great that you keep your finances personal and don’t go about sharing how much you’ve got in the bank to family and friends. Your finances are private matters and should be kept private. The only other person who could have access to your finances would be your spouse.
If friends and in some cases family know exactly how buoyant you are, they will come armed with the knowledge and feeling somewhat entitled asking for a loan that would probably be never paid back.

Yes, a lot of people probably must have gone though such an experience of a family member or a close friend requesting for a loan and in a lot of cases, those requests have been either politely declined due to legitimate fears of not being paid back. Obviously, the decision to part with your money solely depends on the reputation of the person.
Lots of relationships have been lost due to lending of money. I hope people quickly realize the fact that with the worsening economic situation globally, money is getting harder to come by and the amount sitting in the bank is slowly but steadily losing some of its value. 

Renting, in my opinion cannot be said to be the best solution for workers that live in the rural areas and come over to the city for work as some would find it more affordable and cheaper to commute from their homes in the rural areas to work in the city. A lot of people do this instead of going through the hassle of renting a place in the city that the rent alone would probably eat deep into your little income.

Also, I don’t think renting is as light on the tenant as you make it out to be. The landlord obviously has some obligations to keep the house convenient for living so does the tenant is responsible to keep the house as it was met. Also, the light, water bills are on you as the landlord would obviously not pay for the utilities of a tenant.
Renting isn’t the best solution as I think there is actually no best solution. People are just inclined to do whatever works for them.
