You absolutely shouldn’t be investing in what you do not understand. For every singular story like this there’s a million where people invested their money in things that they didn’t understand in which backfired on them and lost considerable sums.

He made the right call. I often see clients investing in equities or debt instruments that they don’t understand and I’ll never understand what drives them to want to invest so blindly, other than greed and ignorance.

Kids are the future of everything, not just bitcoin. Seniors are typically much more conservative, and unwilling to learn or change the way they do things.  Of course right now seniors have more of an impact on bitcoin than children do because after all children aren’t working a 9 to 5 and bringing home the bacon, so to speak. So if they’re not buying bitcoin their not contributing a whole ton. But, they eventually will and will help bring forward a lot of change in this type of realm.

That would be a lot of fun to see those two play together, but I do t think I see Lillard wanting to go there. Sure they got Greg Popavich who’s an absolutely legendary coach whom is revered by players, but I think it’s going to take more than one sensational (potentially) rookie for them to win a championship.

I would expect him to go to a little bit more mature of a team. But he’s also not a free agent so thats obviously going to hurt his shot at going yo the teams he really wants to.

It’s insane but yes, statistically speaking, Jay Cutler is the best quarterback the Chicago Bears have ever had. I mean that’s just insane, and sad for Bears fans like myself.

I surely don’t expect Love to be the caliber of Favre or Rodgers (very few ever have been). I am praying that Fields comes out and finally gives us that quarterback that we’ve been so desperately searching for. I would say that they probably already have the worst luck ever in terms of QB play. They are one of the original teams too.

Lol, if you’re making a “really nice” living, then I’d say it’s probably not time for you to change professions.  Sports books haven’t become “soft”, that’s not the right word to use here at all, they’ve simply become more conservative having learned from their past mistakes.

It’s true some operate out of places like the British Virgin Islands that harbor criminals and criminal activity. This is why you simply don’t use them.

NFL has 18 weeks, recently having added another, and are likely to add one more game on soon. NFL football is more demanding than Rugby. There’s no possible way you can play that sport year round. The season is loaded with injuries, often times injuries that take 8-12 months to heal.  Also, adding shoulder pads and helmets help deliver blows to the body. Often times players get their “bell rung” several times a game. This is when your vision goes black (you’re blind) and you have what looks like a bolt of lightning go down the middle of this black “vision”, so to speak. These are mini concussions. Full on concussions also happen often to players and is absolutely horrific on the brain. A brain disorder, CTE (short version of the name) was recently discovered by a Dr. This is like what boxers get when they get punched in the head so many times. It often leads to many different types of mental health issues,  including many suicides.  The off-season is needed.  The NFL is by far America’s number one sport, they make plenty of money with what games they have.





34 years of top tier HOF QBs, expect Love to make a 180 & become a HOFr too. Our luck.

Lol, you think you’ve got it bad, try being a Chicago Cubs and Bears fan. Yes the Cubs finally got one in 2016 but are back to being terrible and the Bears haven’t last won since 1985, and I was a year old, so obviously I didn’t get to enjoy it lol.

Niners are good, but you can’t be that shocked by the outcome..Patrick Mahomes is just unreal. Y’all still got a good team. The QB situation certainly is an interesting one.

I’m the opposite, football season is so by far my favorite time of year, I go in to a slight depression day 1 without it 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, I guarantee this “fight” is never going to happen. The only thing that makes me think there might be a teeny tiny chance is the fact that both of them are massive egotistical narcissists, so I can see if one really wants to fight and starts to call out the other, then maybe their egos will get the best of them.

If they do fight, any way they could both lose, works for me

Yeah I’ve gotten the auto-renew notification for all my leagues. We are just about 2 months out now.

Currently doing my first ever dynasty draft, which I’ve wanted to do for a long time now.

I had pick 9, and it’s a 12 man league. It’s a league that has an “offensive position” spot which means you can plug any player in it, which also means it’s technically a 2 QB league.

I snagged Fields pick 9 (my first). Hard call between him, Watson and Lawrence.

Came back on the turn and snagged Breece Hall. I really wanted 2 other RBs , but it’s dynasty and need youth. Just praying he comes back decently healthy.



Hope y’all having a good week/weekend, especially if in the US - Happy 4th. I’m going in day 4 of having no power. Central IL got rocked by 4 tornados and straight line winds. Word is I may not have power until Tuesday, if then. Ruining my week long vacation. Sweet! Lol. Cheers.

Wow, I am surprised to see that’s sports betting is by far the most gambled upon game with us bitcointalkers. For me, I feel like I have the most advantage when I bet on day NFL football. Im good at poker, but playing online is not fun for me plus to win a poker tournament you’ve really got to be committed to sitting down and playing for hours on end.

I love roulette, poker, slot machines etc..but sports gambling is my bread and butter.

The important thing for me, and what I’ve taught myself, is that I shouldn’t ever have a “pattern” for when I’m placing sports bets (this makes up the vast majority of my gambling). For me I simply place bets when I feel confident in the teams I’m placing bets on. I rarely ever force it, just to get some “action”, unless it’s like a huge game such as the superbowl.

Wow, just saw the news that Damian Lillard has requested a trade out of Portland. I mean can you blame the guy? He’s been one of the best players in the league since he entered and has been one of the best shooters I’ve ever seen, dude is just a killer.

I can’t wait to see where he might go.

Fee VanVleet signing with Houston was an interesting one. Wanted him in Chicago badly.

It’s collectible related. When posts like this come up, I will usually post on two boards. Like I will post the main thread on here then in the scam section I’ll write something in the title like “Fake Privnote website once again” and then in the body of the post I’ll just write “see original post here” and provide a link. Sometimes posts should be in two places, and moderators have always been fine with it when it makes sense.

I remember when this happened originally. It popped up on google before the real site. These scammers are pretty decent.

Have you checked any of the address just to see how much money they’ve stolen so far? I’d be curious to see those addresses.

Nope. Tread93 here on BitcoinTalk knows the owner, or has at least met/spoken with the owner and asked him why they don’t grade/slab physical cryptocurrency coins and he stated “we only grade real coins”. Tread then said, well you slabbed those McDonalds Big Mac coins, and he replied “those are really nice coins”.

Even if they start opening up grading for these coins, I’m going elsewhere..despite imo the NGC slabs being the best slabs by far.

The way I see it, some taxes are fair and everyone should be paying their fair share, but some taxes are absolutely wrong and I have no moral issues when people try and get past them.  Like one of my good buddies who lives in India, they charge 40% tax on precious metals/stones of any type when you import them in..40 fucking percent!  That's insane, and it's wrong.  I know much of Europe is like this too.

It's ugly, so, sometimes I feel it's okay, and it's getting past bullshit.

I hear you and feel you on all of this, but that's the problem, is that many governments are doing anything they can to try and get their citizens to stop using bitcoin because it goes against their centralized money system, and lets be frank about it, it's hurting them.  Decentralization of money, as a financial advisor, is the best thing to happen to money.  This is what got me interested in bitcoin in the first place back in 2014

Yeah that's true about Curry, I completely forgot he was that old already.  I still remember seeing him all over the news for taking Davidson so far like he did in the NCAA basketball tournament/march madness years back..it actually makes me sad to think about because it feels like that was just yesterday lol

I can't stand the guy personally, all that mouth piece chewing, but one hell of a shooter. Best ever..but yeah he can do the run and gun like he used to.

I've been trying to figure out if I want to be this election, but there's so much unknown now that I'm starting think I'm not going to risk my money.  I thought for sure that Hilary Clinton was going to beat Trump and look how that turned out.  So, it's sadly going to be a re-match but no clue how it's going to go.  The one thing I do know, and agree with you on, it's a lesser of two evils. Sadly

I honestly didn't even know that you could bet on games after they went live until just a couple years ago.  My thing is, if I feel a certain team's spread is too high, I'll try and bet if the other team starts to close that spread gap early in the game, this way I can't get a better spread to go on.  That being said, there's a good amount of time where this strategy doesn't work out so it's a tricky thing.

I’d say it’s time to bump this.

I kindly ask that people do their best to help include some links. I wanna try and get this going again, I’ve neglected it a bit.
