Going by your title, I agree that it pays to be humble, and yes, if one is humble to whoever is their mentor, they definitely will learn fast and even become better than their master in some area, but that doesn't mean that a master is never a master. A master is always a master, and a good master would want their boy to exploit. This forum is very large with different boards; there are even some that seem hidden, and if one claims to be smarter than their mentor, whereas they are still in their early stages, they might not get very exposed to some things they are supposed to know. Even if they do, it will be very long before they can get to understand how everything works.
That's true because the only way a student can learn very well is true humility and being humble, although I believe in the saying which states that the student always  surpass the masters but this is only possible  when the student is willing to learn more because the master always has some secrets that he or she doesn't always tell the student know and this logic also implies in the forum here too so the student needs to find out somethings here by him or herself.

Manchester united is really understand performing against Newcastle and it's really bad because they are at home and been this embarrassed is quite unfortunate that ten hag have to allow the team continually be humiliated at home this often without any improvement.

I was expecting some brilliance from Manchester united today even if they don't win but it would be considered a fair play but this cannot be considered because they are playing at home, loosing 0-3 to Newcastle is really humiliating and am sure by now the fans will be really disappointed already, their performance seem like that of amateurs and not a big team soon playing with Manchester united will be the case of playing with a small team.

I understand the fact that this team is playing really bad but that doesn't remove the fact that this Newcastle team are no longer a small side and have truly transformed when it comes to their gameplay and share dominance in the field. Manchester united are really under performing and if someone isn't done about this team now then the team will just end up like their counter part London team "Chelsea" who have been struggling since and still haven't found a solution to the root of their problem.

I’m a new member here, and I want to gamble on online casinos. I found some good trusted casinos. And I want to begin with a game with a low budget. First, I need your suggestions about the best games, slots. Live casino for a beginner.
Do you think Me starting gambling would effect me in my real life or make me addicted to gambling. What’s you suggestion and advices.
That's a decision you yourself will take because I think you already know the outcome of gambling if you actually take to be a special means of accumulating profits. So the only advice I will give to you is that, when you want to start this your gambling habit, you should only play for fun and nothing more because if it becomes more than this then addiction will be the firm result, although gambling can fetch you some profits but the fact that its not a steady income should always play out in your head and never chase your loses if you are experiencing a losing streak.

For me I no think say bitcoin adoption is slow, bitcoin is a new innovation not even up to two decades. Things like this e dey take time for everyone to embrace it. I no even think say bitcoin adoption even dey slow because for naija 70 % of young people dey into bitcoin in one way or the other. Since bitcoin started existing the growth in bitcoin so far is not bad. Bitcoin is not even something people needs to rush into or something people needs to be forced to embrace it, people will definitely adopt it at their own suitable time , it has come to stay for people to  make use of it .
Na true you talk because even from the onset of its creation nobody been actually feel say Bitcoin go even thrive this much but as time goes this particular peculiar coin has spoken for it and this was caused the massive adoption if Bitcoin all over the world. People way been actually get their hand on BTC that period actually turned out to be millionaires and this upset provoked and awaking people awareness of such coins. Bitcoin growth is even very fast if you ask me, atleast comparing it to other coins the rate of adoption of Bitcoin is something else and the adoption will still improve more with time coming.

Hi all. How to buy more when growing? Today we are growing, but I don’t want to buy. Share your experience in this matter.
Timing the market is very important, and don't be scare buying even if the price is rising you just have to do some research and you'll be good.
Many might say that it's too late but it's not because we are still far from the peak and the pump is just started. Buy the good coins, know when to do this and always have your target price to take profit. If you are still afraid, maybe you are still not ready better to learn the market trend first before investing.
Timing is everything when it comes to investing or buying of different coins in the market because you can buy at the right time and actually sell off at the wrong time so the way you plan out everything is very important. So many people have actually gotten their hand on so many coins and their portfolio is looking good but some of these folk will still fail to achieve some tangible profits in their investment because they don't follow up the market while some will be scared and sell off their coins at the wrong time because of lack of planning and understanding of the whole crypto market.
1386  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Sent Coin by mistake to wrong address and got them back:) on: November 01, 2023, 09:21:42 PM
Yep its funny someone returned the coins. Hard to believe I guess thats why you find it funny. You are lucky to have sent the coin to someone who has no intention of keeping it. If it's someone else, you'd be posting your rants already.  It is not every day a person receives some coins that they don't expect and for that, they will consider it sent by God.  

You are right, because I think he wouldn't find it funny if actually the address he sent the coins to wasn't someone he can relate with or the person didn't want to send the coins because not all person has that humility to actually send back a coins that was accidentally sent to his wallet.

It's some confusing although how the whole mix up occured with the address finding it way to his keypad or clipboard but I would like to think maybe he copied the wrong address from someplace where the actual wallet he needed to send the coins was also there.
1387  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 01, 2023, 09:08:21 PM
This arsenal game tonight is just something else because the scoreline is beyond my expectations even though it's a cup game, I never actually expected arsenal to lose to such big margin. The game is currently 3-0 to West ham united and the scoreline is really shocking owing to the brilliant performance that this gunners team has portrayed in the premier league matches they have played.

As for the Manchester united game tonight, I don't expect anything special because this team is really annoying with their performance and I don't think they can cope on a normal circumstance with this Newcastle team because these guys are really red hot but since it's a league match maybe Manchester united can surprise just as the scoreline for arsenal game is also shocking.
1388  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this how it start? (No or yes?) on: October 31, 2023, 06:26:23 PM
Have you been in such situations before? I foremost, asked this question because I haven't done this before. Today I was just doing nothing but sitting down in the sitting room watching TV, but I wasn't comfortable. Then I fund my betting account (hoping to have fun) with $10 but, unfortunately for me, I lost the whole money without winning just a dime. It was not the first time for me to lose money on gambling (but I am not a regular gambler), then I fund another $10, so finally, finally, I still lost the other money I deposited, and I was like asking myself how? When did I even fund another money in this account? why I am surprised is because I haven't funded into my betting account twise in a day after losing done money, so am I becoming an addict? No.
I believe what you experience was that feeling of wanting to win back your loss because it's like a session and when you are log in , you actually don't know what you doing because of the anxiousness you feel from actually losing the first money deposited. I can say you haven't really gotten to the addict stage but with you are explaining now, I think it's a working progress unless you probably contain it now when the habit is still controllable because once you lose control, another experience of deposit that you might have will be much more way than 20$
1389  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins that are good for long hodling in this season. on: October 31, 2023, 06:16:44 PM
I guess Ethereum and Binance are very good in long hodling because, since I became regular in the crypto market, I discovered that this two altcoins carry huge population to stand in second and third position in the market that is giving me hope that they are good in long term hodling and, it will be difficult for their customers to experience negative results like what other customers are experiencing from new altcoins in the market.
Ethereum is the king of altcoins, meanwhile Binance is the coin of the best exchange in the world. Sure, these altcoins are good for the long term investment, they have very clear fundamentals and very potential to keep growing in the future. Moreover, because of their popularity, there are many investors that are already involved in these altcoins. So, they have big market caps and supported by strong communities. These matters are enough to be the reasons of trusting them for a long run.

However, it is not impossible that we can have negative results if we don't have strong mentality to hold them. Whenever there is a big FUD attacking them, it can leads us to do panic selling. When someone sells their coins in panic, he/she may sell for a loss. So, we must avoid to sell any coin in panic. Selling at panic can ruin the dreams of gaining good profits in the future.


I personally think the reason for this panic selling is base on the poor mentality and inability to hold but I won't blame anyone who actually sell off their coins because apart from Ethereum which am very confident with , all other altcoins is just a matter of skeptism because one moment that are flying high in the sky and the next crashing down just like the candle sticks when trading synthetics. It's take discipline for one to hold even during a dip because it's just like losing your money when you still have the power to alter the outcome but choose not to and instead just hold it even when the price is going down.

1391  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Make We Dey Clean the Board from Shit/Spam Posters: Report Dem Here on: October 31, 2023, 05:57:47 PM
The non-Bitcoin related topics and discussions are not but entirely bad when they dominate discussion here day-in-day-out, it becomes somehow since here is a Bitcoin forum. Make we catch cruise in such a way that here will not turn to Twitter or Facebook.
On the English board, we have Bitcoin boards, altcoin boards, economics which may be intended to be about bitcoin like the speculation board but not, the economy board is more about what that are not that related to bitcoin and moderators left it that way. We also have other boards like serious discussion and its child board, watch tower. There are other boards like politics and society, including the off-topic board. This is a bitcoin forum, but we have many other boards that what are related to bitcoin are not discussed. On the English board, the board that is most related to politics discussion  is the politics and society board.

We are close to almost a year now and we are not looking for ways to have child boards. We discuss about politics and society and about off-topic related matters. We need boards for these. The reason some peoole like Igehhbotz and Agbe that are frustrating is because they see more of discussion that they do not like and that are of low quality. If there are boards for it, we can easily report many of the posts to be moved to the appropriate board.

We can notice on the English board that some people said they are not visiting some boards because it is full more of low quality posts. If there are other boards, the irrelevant threads would have been moved there. I mean the thread some people see as irrelevant. Go through the off-topic board in the English section and see how trash it is.
This is exactly why I respect your presence here sir, I mean you have said it all because we all know the reason for the massive influx of contribution once more in the local board although we have being active since the creation of this local board but the issue of spam posting seem to be a core problem ever since it's creation but the real solutions to the problem has not being work towards which is the creation of sub-board or child board as you started, because I feel and know that with the creation of these sub-board, the rate of shit post in the actual main page of discussion in the local board will be reduced because it will be very clear for direction to be given to those members that are responsible for all these shit post on the actual board to which their topics should be dropped.
1392  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigerians preferred to learn things the harder way. on: October 31, 2023, 05:46:52 PM
Our young people are uninformed of current knowledge that is constantly circulated; they are just concerned about obtaining quick money, which has pushed them to accumulate it through unscrupulous means. They only show concern for projects that are successful; they make no contributions to anything that is growing, preferring to serve as hosts and keep all for themselves. The youths are also done, how can you explain this, a full-grown man continues to depend entirely on gambling to feed, it's ludicrous because this is the modern period and everything is progressing to the next level.

The mentality of these young people nai dey cause so many problems for them because, the taught of them actually doing something that can be fruitful at a young age needs to be there if not the person will just end up a nuisance to himself and to the society at large. I would like to use my vicinity for example because there are so many cases of actually grown men with wives and children children actually depending on gambling for them to actually feed their family which for me is an error because gambling isn't something that one can put as a means of putting food on the table. And alot of these cases are acclaimed to the pitiful excuses that there is no job in the country which is understandable but no responsibility youth would be in such an environment and not actually plan ahead of his or her future by establishing himself at a very young age .
1393  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin gives hope. on: October 31, 2023, 05:36:25 PM
Some of us dun really experience wetin e mean to dey poor and hopeless, na why we nor dey carry bitcoin play because e dey give us hope say tomorrow go better. Before some of us wey come from really poor background  dey always reason how tomorrow go better because we know say our family dey depend on us and we nor get any serious inheritance wey dem leave for us, and our families even suffer to carry us pass school, money nor even dey for dem to give us to start business, life hard been hard well well and we nor get hope on how tomorrow go be because we know say e nor easy to just get investment wey fit give person money tomorrow for this our country wey things hard, and oportunity nor dey avaialable for everyone.

Bitcoin changed everything ooo, Bitcoin give us hope say tomorrow fit better, bitcoin give us opportunity to fit dey invest the small small money we dey get into bitcoin to fit make more tomorrow. Bitcoin give us hope for this our tight country.

Wetin you think? Without investment opportunity for bitcoins, how e for be?
Bitcoin don really create opportunity well well for this era of world and so many people really benefit from especially those of us wey dey stay for third world country. Bitcoin at first was meant to be a symbol of decentralized currency freeing the mass from so many limitations wey the central bank don enslave so many people and their controlled fiat currency.
But like every good project, the advantages just keep getting better and better and that's why the opportunity that it brought when people started seeing Bitcoin as a means of accumulating profits really put hope in the life of so many people out there, because if one can understand and know the ethics that follows a Bitcoin investment then one can easily benefits from it massively.

@OP , This is an educative and lucrative forum and please we should all try to keep it in that standard, and I think I have seen some members here already getting pissed off with all the nonsense threads wey dey full the local board anyhow, but the your case is somehow different since it's somehow related to football but the only issue is that you should have directed it to the right board for discussion or involved yourself there in any ongoing discussion about the balloon Dior as a believe there is already an ongoing discussion about this issue over there.

1398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think if you have a lot of money its hard to satisfy your ego in gambling on: October 29, 2023, 09:48:57 PM
As long as am not dependent on the winnings from gambling to survive, to pay my bills, to move from one place to another as when needed, and I earn just as much to cover any gambling indulgence, I would agree a lot of money with less responsibilities would satisfy my ego in gambling.
It isn't the case many of the times though, because an addicted gambler would spend in proportion to the amount of money he /she has just to satisfy their ego.

Ps: I must know am good at gambling for sure, before I can be crazy enough to be satisfied with such a lifestyle.
An addicted person never really knows when he is satisfied because for him every try in his gambling act is a possible win even when he or she has millions of dollars in his possession. I think for some folks, the whole gambling theory is just to experience that feeling of actually wining not minding if he or she is actually going to squander his money if he actually hits a losing streak.
Gambling can be crazy sometimes and some of rich guys actually just gamble for fun while most other people see it as a means of income.
1399  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Wrong mentality of scammers on: October 29, 2023, 05:32:05 PM
Whether our government good or not, even if Nigeria be a country with the best economy in the world with plenty job opportunities, fraudsters, scammers and hackers  go still dey because some people go want find the easy way out. Even with the way the country dey go, some people choose to be different, dem don make a personal decision not to involve themselves with evil because them understand say there's no joy in stealing from another man.

One painful truth about yahoo be say small small we don dey normalize am, e don dey look like normal thing in our eyes. Some parents self dey encourage their wards to go do yahoo yahoo. Even when EFCC come for some people, their parents go dey claim say na them buy the cars and properties in the name of their pikin.
 No be only Naija way this problem day oo, ee day everywhere and to come reason am naija no be country with the highest rate of scammers. Countries like the UK and United States even with their better government and economy they still pass us for this scam thing. No be today scamming don start ee day tey but na because say we don come day too expose to the internet way make us they information. Everything way day sup day happen for reason, no be everybody go be doctor or lawyer, even when we get police dem we still get people way go still theft, na so life day, day bring equilibrium to life.
   We Nigerian we sabi over do our own things, they no day hide their own thing, some don even day see am as occupation sef, you go see small boy way still day secondary school day involve for fraud. Make we no feel say yahoo na normal thing, na wrong thing and ee day break the victim. People way choose not to involve no mean say day be fool or day no get brain but they see the value of humanity, na why day choose to do the right thing. Make we try day do the right thing and to put people in our shoe. No body go happy be victim of scam,  do person watin you wan make them do !!
  
  
Well spoken my brother, this issue of naija being exposed in this fraud more than other countries na true because most of this Asia countries like India and Philippines even worse pass naija well well when it's comes to scamming rate and nobody dey ever look or see their deeds because naija don paint the internet as the most fraudulent nation but as you talk am these other countries dem worse pass us well well.

My issue with this whole matter be say the thing don dey turn something wey our society don already dey accept am as legit  and legal because I don hear of so many cases wey mother's dey actually find money give their children and encourage them make them buy laptop learn this yahoo stuff instead of leading them on the right thing to do.
1400  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: October 29, 2023, 06:03:02 AM

I cannot disagree with you on this point, and some investors will be lured into thinking that they need to trade - which an overwhelming number of people do not have very good trading skills, and there might even be too much luck involved with trading so that in order to make trading into a skill rather than luck, there has to be quite a bit of planning that goes into the positions that are taken.. .. .. but at the same time, there could be some ways to sell small amounts on the way up to offset inclinations of trading, but another way might be to just shave back on some of the accumulation during high price rises in order to use that money that otherwise had been invested into bitcoin to either buy on dips or to just let it build up in order to not feel so compelled to sell the BTC that is held and might be going up quite a bit in value and even fluctuating a lot in value, but if someone has a decent amount of cash (or other kind of value on the side that is not fluctuating as much as the bitcoin price, there could be some assurance in having that option on the side).
When it comes to Bitcoin investment, just like the title of topic implies it's just best to "buy the dip and hodl", this is far better than thinking you could accumulate through trading which is luck base like you have already stated. Sometimes the availability of funds or finance is a major problem and also goes with impatient, many Bitcoin investor are mislead by the false stories about how trading is easy and actually try to venture into it by thinking they can get some Bitcoin added through this means to their investment but believe me it's not as easy as they make it seem in the ads and commercials and I Know this through the hard way(lost some coins).

If anyone actually want to be successful then keeping a strict mind about their investment would go a long and also knowing exactly when the market favours you so you can buy more (during dips) because you get more Bitcoin when you buy during dips or you can just go with weekly accumulating and most importantly never use funds that you know will affect you, thereby making you temper you Bitcoin investment.
