1441  Economy / Economics / Re: "Humans will not be replaced by robots very soon" --- yeah right !!! on: November 06, 2020, 04:36:21 PM
This process already began. I think robots will not replace humans but humans will become more robotic day by day.

Yeah, I couldnt agree more. It is very real, humans are increasingly like robots.  Never satisfied with what they have so that people keep trying to upgrade themselves to what they want.  Modern humans also look like robots who don't care when they have to rest, enjoy life and they just continue to pursue their life goals.  I sometimes get confused, what is all this for?  even robots are not as targeted as what we are doing today.  8 hours of work, even overtime, to reach the daily, monthly, yearly target, so you can buy a motorbike, car, boat, plane and even buy the entire earth.  Working tirelessly only for the life-to-death targets that stopped him.
1442  Economy / Economics / Re: The pandemic did push the world towards a more digital age. on: November 06, 2020, 04:23:57 PM
Even those people who are hesitant to use the digital technology are giving their effort to learn. This is in order to avoid going outside and mingle with people for something that they can avoid if they will use the digital tech. A lot of delivery systems are now going cashless. A move to avoid the usage of cash, as identified as one possible sources of transfer of virus. Better be safe than sorry. There's nothing wrong in learning new things rather than open yourself to vulnerability.
We are moving towards right direction now , crypto merchants getting more and more available,  businesses post-pandemic are recovering and even ready to bounce back.

The price of bitcoin itself rose to over $15k just now! What else could possibly make things right in this awful year of 2020?
It's a quick acceleration for cryptocurrency, where everything else slow down. The market are so exciting in response of this new era of digital age.
We are in the early stage currently, brace yourself.

I really feel this, seeing that almost all industries have been affected by covid, only digital-based industries have grown during the pandemic.  Even cryptocurency has become more and more hype since the pandemic appeared, people prefer to try to invest in BTC to secure their assets due to the worldwide economic downturn and loss of value of money, and stocks also affected by the pandemic are less promising investment alternatives.  So that the Btc price can reach its current highest level.  Luckily for us who already know and store assets in the form of Bitcoin.  It looks like a field that is ready to harvest superior seeds.
1443  Economy / Economics / Re: You want to get rich, don’t pay taxes, don’t get married, don’t use bank, and... on: November 06, 2020, 03:54:16 PM
Its useless to live when you don't want to be married just to become millionaire. It is not necessary need to escape the marriage life just to fulfill your dreams. Success doesn't measure through your treasuries. It measure how you become satisfy and happy with your life. Its useless if you have nothing to do with your money. After all, life is about happiness than become rich.
Well you're right its not about money or how rich you are, what important is the happiness and contentment.

However lets face the fact that money is one of the essential thing that we need to have. Isnt it good to be married as rich or atleast financially stable?

I think its better to establish yourself before marrying someone to not experience the hardship of this life if you're penniless.

The OP seems to be only giving the advice to get rich not to be successful. Married for you is a joy, but not everyone who is married can be happy, the fact is that the divorce rate continues to increase and the classic reason is economic problems. But, in my opinion, if the OP says that if you want to be rich, don't get married, that's not quite right, because in reality, many people marry just to increase their wealth. So, not getting married is not an indicator that we can be richer than those who are married.

1446  Economy / Economics / Re: Is COVID-19 an excuse for governments & central banks to print money? on: November 06, 2020, 02:36:45 PM
I guess printing money at its core is created needed due to shareholder greed. Normally companies have just one goal, to make as much profit as possible and if you are profiting you are expected to profit even more in the future, if you profited 1 billion in 2020, you need more than 1 billion profit in 2021 so that you can cover the inflation difference as well. Which means by logic all these companies needs to gather as much profit and money as possible, where does this money come from? If we assume nobody prints any new money, shouldn't that be impossible?

Without new money you can't have more money, hence why central banks keep printing money to keep this system going. We need a system that rewards not losing money and maybe not focus on growing profits but just keeping profits, that seems like only logical option.

All businesses are like that, there is no single business that only keeps profits, they always target higher profits than before.  How can it be changed?  Business is supposed to be like that, business becomes an economic tool for growth, from business it can also absorb a lot of unemployment.  Isn't it a natural thing for the government to keep business going by printing money.
1447  Economy / Economics / Re: Second lockdown in Europe can their economy survive this?. on: November 06, 2020, 12:41:07 PM
And now we heard again that would make a second lockdown in europe and Ill think that was a good Idea for me to prevent the virus spread all over. And the economy will down for now but if the lockdown will end I think it gonna back again to normal.

The European economy after the lockdown will not be as normal as before, because this second lockdown has an increasingly severe economic impact.  Unemployment will be higher, but the productive age will continue to increase.  When companies reduce their workforce, at the same time the number of fresh graduates increases, adding to the existing unemployment list.  European economy will not be as good as before, even now all countries across Europe have prepared the worst scenario in their economy.  They have predicted that this will increase the country's debt.  This is a signal that their economy is not doing well.
1448  Economy / Economics / Re: Is COVID-19 an excuse for governments & central banks to print money? on: November 05, 2020, 03:52:14 PM
Indeed. Printing money during the pandemic of the COVID-19 will never solve the economic downfall or the recession. It will only cause inflation, or it will increase the amount of money circulating money in a country's economy that people can demand or buy more goods, so prices of every good will increase. I think it is terrible news for every consumer because most people during the pandemic don't have stable jobs, so I hope the government plans to solve this problem.

Printing money will indeed have an impact on inflation in the country.  In this pandemic, I don't believe that this condition allows the government to print money.  Because, if it is not controlled very well and excess liquidity in the market causes the government to be unable to absorb it, this will be a new disaster.  The pandemic is not resolved, inflation kills many layers of society.  It would be better if the current monetary policy is directed towards lowering interest rates and other monetary policies.
1449  Economy / Economics / Re: Second lockdown in Europe can their economy survive this?. on: November 05, 2020, 03:25:01 PM
I'm afraid to make a mistake, but everything is coming to the fact that this is the scenario of our life for the next few years.

2020 is really a very tough year, even this is a year that teaches us to live accustomed to a pandemic.  We have to prepare for the worst conditions who knows how long it will end.  Not only Europe, almost all countries are severely affected by this pandemic.
1450  Economy / Economics / Re: Need of the hour : Use the Crisis on: November 05, 2020, 01:30:01 PM
I am actually on verge of doing something like this, I am starting a website business that is not really affected by pandemic at all, it shouldn't be affected and in fact it should be going bigger and bigger the poorer people gets, I am not selling anything, I am getting users and my profit comes from having more users which means my users are my product and ads/affiliate is my income.

This is what you should always try to do, world economy will never get better, it may look to get better but while it gets better slowly we are not having the rights our parents had and our children will not have the rights we have in the long run. So, just focus on providing something for free, and charge afterwards, that is how startups becomes billion dollar worth.

What kind of business website have you created with users as your product?  I wonder, does it require a lot of capital?  and I am not sure your business can be done by everyone, because a website-based business requires special skills to create and requires a large amount of money.
1451  Economy / Economics / Re: Second lockdown in Europe can their economy survive this?. on: November 04, 2020, 05:39:41 PM
I’m sure by now all must have heard that Germany and France have imposed second lockdown, and this news shall crush small business owners morale, and even effect those people who rely on jobs cause it’s quiet possible that they may never be employed again.
The first lockdown has already killed many small business and many shut their business and now if they lock everything once again it will cause irreparable damage as many will be left jobless including small business owners and what the government could do to help them is still not known and i do not think the government will do anything to help these small businesses.

The possibility that the government will do to overcome this is by using a social safety net, this is a policy that the government can do by providing loan relief, and providing cash assistance to societies and businesses to stay afloat, and accelerating government projects to open employment and employment opportunities. can absorb unemployment immediately. Funds for this can all be taken from the state budget or with additional state debt. This is why governments in European countries have predicted that sovereign debt will increase.
1452  Economy / Economics / Re: Issuing loans in Bitcoin, how we could do it on: November 04, 2020, 05:32:23 PM
I started to think about it. How a bank and folks could issue loans to people?

Currently, when you need to borrow money, your banker just edits your balance account and create money magically. You then pay back monthly.
Banks won't be able to do that with Bitcoin with its limited supply. You can't print bitcoins.

But now, between folks. Let's say I'm the banker and you're the customer looking to borrow money to buy a house. I can lend you the money but how to be sure you will pay me back with full interests? With banks, the solution is easy, the bank seizes the house and you can't do something. But the average Joe hasn't the same 'power' than a bank to collect a debt.

Its just like lending someone cash no different.  You either get it back or you don't then you have to legally deal with it.  Bitcoin is no different.  I dont think banks will get into lending bitcoin because lime you said they would have to have 100% coverage meaning they cant just loan bitcoin magically...but they can lend their own coin  Wink

If that is the case, it will be difficult for those who borrow bitcoin in countries that have not legalized bitcoin. Lending and borrowing conventional cash money has been accepted by everyone and every country has prepared related regulations. But bitcoin is a little different because not all countries recognize it. How?
1453  Economy / Economics / Re: Are the Central Banks starting to worry about the public's perception? on: November 04, 2020, 05:23:53 PM
From what I understand in USA the federal bank is just filled with people who worked in banking industry and other financial companies for almost all their lives and "retired" to federal bank, how could those people ever think differently from a bank? This is why they only care about what banks and other financial companies think and not what we think.


This is a reality in the field of how bankers think. They have thoughts that are very different from us, because a banker will think how their financial industry can still exist without systemic problems, instead of focusing on how people's welfare can be achieved. They never think about the perceptions of the general public, they only think about the perceptions of investors for the sustainability of their industry.
1454  Economy / Economics / Re: Second lockdown in Europe can their economy survive this?. on: November 04, 2020, 03:32:32 PM
I don't mind people protesting, anytime and anywhere - but then these same people shouldn't seek medical help when they get infected - let them stay home and cure themselves of a virus they consider harmless. These are people who have 0% empathy for others, who want to live as before and don't care if 100 or 10 000 people die tomorrow.

I couldn't agree more, they deserve it. However, I believe it will not happen if they remain to take to the street in protest and they infected, they aren't worth getting medical help. They are not even worthy of being considered social beings, staying away from them is the right step to distance themselves from the spread of the pandemic which is getting crazy. But, we are just talking about the possibility.

With all this, the EU is completely divided on how to curb the virus, there are no common measures and the whole thing is completely out of control - if there is no effective vaccine soon, what happened in Italy last winter will happen in most EU countries.

Hopefully, this lockdown policy can run effectively so that the worst possibility like Italy will not happen, and the most important thing in handling this problem is a cooperation between the community and the government. The success of this policy is very unlikely without public awareness. Because the real proof of this success is the New Zealand country, the government continues to make a heart-to-heart communication approach to its society so that it complies with the policies that have been made, and societies also stand together to fight the pandemic by obeying all the policies that have been implemented.
1455  Economy / Economics / Re: Second lockdown in Europe can their economy survive this?. on: November 03, 2020, 06:02:21 PM
So to everyone living in those two countries, I wish you guys the best.  And maybe you ought to follow the Americans and take to the streets in protest.

The situation is really critical in almost all EU member states, and this is just the beginning of the second wave. What is trying to be saved with lockdowns is the health care system, which in almost all countries is falling apart and bursting in all directions, leaving even the most difficult patients without adequate help. No one would knowingly shoot themselves in the leg if there is other choice, and if you have to choose between head and foot, most will still choose the latter, no matter how painful it is.

I understand from what perspective you speak when you look at the situation in your own way, but Europeans are (in most cases) much more susceptible to deaths than Americans - although some protest in the streets and come to hospitals a few days later infected, which is a really amazing display of human stupidity.

Take to the streets in protest is not a wise move at this time. Even if you strongly disagree with government policy, going down the road to protest is the worst option. In the midst of a pandemic that is getting crazy, you only worsen the condition of the country. Not getting a solution to the problem that happened, it made it worse.

However, I am very confused by the conditions in Europe, why the virus spreads so fast considering the conditions in Europe are far above the average for developing countries, it is not that the people should have a higher awareness of health and the government is better prepared to handle a pandemic like this. But in fact, the spread of the virus in Europe is higher than in my developing country.
1456  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it wise to deposit $ 100 in bitcoin before the united states vote? on: November 03, 2020, 05:35:42 PM
Hello Everyone I'm new here. I did some research about cryptocurrency exchange. I know very little about this topic. What should I do What do you suggest?I thought of investing to bitcoin for $100 to start before vote in usa. What do you guys think?

Doesn't matter if you buy now or later, anytime you want to buy BTC you can get it easily as you need. If you think that the right time to buy BTC before the US election vote start because you expect to get a profit after the vote ended, It could happen. However, I doubt if the US Election will influence to BTC Price up. In the US, bitcoin has been legal, and for each candidate, none have big plans for the development of Cryptocurrency regulations. Neither candidate firmly fully supports Bitcoin, so even if the price goes up after the election, it will only be a temporary speculative effect.

You can buy bitcoin in your local valid exchange. If you live in the US, coinbase is a good option for you. If in your country there's BTC ATMs, it's the most convenient choice. There are many places to buy bitcoin but my message is that you have to be careful where to buy bitcoin because there are numerous scam exchanges, services, and sellers around.
1459  Other / Off-topic / Re: Online business is the best kind of business you can do on: November 03, 2020, 03:07:32 PM
I wanna add some advantages to an online business that have I felt all this time. I can start my own online business with a low first budget even if you wanna try an online business you can start with no budget. But, advice from me is you must manage your business finances as well as possible because, without financial management in your business, it will not be successful exactly. My online business gives me unlimited profit at a lower cost than a typical offline business. And my last additional advantage that I felt is an unlimited market, this is the most important advantage that you can get when you start your own online business, you can set your market as well as you want not to like an offline business when you want another market you need more cost. So, start your online business now, this is a must at this time. Good luck.

The second lockdown policy may be expected to reduce Covid-19 infected cases but this will exacerbate the country's economic burden.  The country that announced the second lockdown must have prepared enormous foreign reserves to bear the impact of fulfill the needs of all societies.  On the society side, this will cause general anxiety for those of productive age.  Those who were supposed to work were forced to take time off and the businesses they worked for were forced to close.  How can the business survive?  and this will increase the number of unemployed if it continues for a long time.  I think this policy is less effective in handling Covid because the negative impacts are greater than the benefits.
