I think if you don't want to do that because of the first doubt then don't do it, we will never know that everyone can change, but instead of borrowing to take a house, it's better for you to invest first.
after benefiting from your investment then you buy a house for yourself and also I think this is effective to avoid your first worry earlier.

Do you know that there are people that borrrow money to buy house and still make big profits from the housing? This is noy like the business for an average person, there are some companies that borrow money to their capital to buy or build house and resell it because in urban areas, it is not everyone that like building a house from scratch since some of them don't have time for inspection, this is the job of this company, they buy or build and sell for another person and the profit they make are good enough as investment, I think investment depends on how you view it.
1482  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you survived during covid19 ? on: March 27, 2023, 08:28:08 PM
during covid indeed life was hard in various circumstances. At that time I got married, and of course it didn't cost more because of the ban on parties, but the surprising thing was, there was a lot of money given from friends and relatives, so at that time I was able to use it to survive until the situation improved and I got a job to survive

You are really surrounded by loving relatives to share you lots of money as gift because in my place, there was no money since people cannot go out to make money, there are some jobs that you have to live your house to make the money especially jobs like wedding, event planners, teaching pupils was hard because it is not everyone that has access to the internet, the cab men and taxi drivers where literally dieing because there is no alternative to another source of income, it was only people who had services online were able to make money in place during covid 19.
1483  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the government can really make a way to end poverty or it depends on us? on: March 27, 2023, 08:23:18 PM
We can't blame the current war, because we can see the condition of the country before the war, didn't it experience difficulties?
actually the poverty of one country was seen before the war with the fluctuations in the prices of food, oil and natural gas, before but we didn't realize it early on because we still had money and when our funds were low we just realized it and always blamed the government,
actually how much money do we have if to live will be enough,

War will contribute to poverty irrespective of how the country situation has been, it can get from good to bad and it can get from bad to worse, don't ignore war because it can destroy what country has been building for yearss even if the country has riches in aboundant.
Bad governant is another point, when a country has bad governing, nothing will prosper in that country irrespective of what they do, it may lead to curruption and people will start stealing wealth for them selfs while the rest of the people so far without good food and high inflation.
1484  Economy / Economics / Re: Where do we go from here on: March 27, 2023, 08:14:31 PM
There was a time where Elon musk is afraid of Robots with AI capabilities, saying they are dangerous to humans, there was a rumour about some incident where a robot threatened to crush him, I don't know how true is this, but not too long ago even the Microsoft boss Bill Gates is very concerned about the harms that AI could bring on humanity, saying something like AI might decides that humans are a threat. We do we go from here?

You should better know that Elon musk is not different from politician, he is just lucky to be a business man by view but dip down, Elon empire is surrounded by politician and that is how the behave from the way they say things, they will say what they fear people to do them and will later do the same thing. I could remember when he bought twitter, he was saying it was a free speech social media but was suspending accounts that were trolling him and was mad about things they say to him and later change mind when he saw that people will live the social media for another one, trust him at your own peril.
1485  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happens when new altcoins encourage religious, political and other agendas? on: March 25, 2023, 09:21:03 PM
This is not the first project to this, if you cross check the coin market cap, you will see many of them like this. What I see from this projects are nothing but pure influence to get rich, check that team very well, the team should be comprises of muslim community because they think the fastest way to get people to buy or sold out their coins is through influencing and religion is one of them, they think using of muslims will fasten their sells but most of this type of projects end up or dies 6 month after launch because they don't have anything, just hype and hype, no tech for the long run.
1486  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Meme coins still a good invest? on: March 25, 2023, 09:05:04 PM
In my opinion, meme coins are no longer good for investing, mostly meme coins appear because of the elon musk effect, and that's not good because meme coins don't have a strong foundation, they only rise due to temporary hype

Elon as abandon them and now into his space X and Twitter blue tick business that is giving him $7 monthly per each person. People forget quickly that Elon is a business person and will used his influence in any where he see opportunity, he knew crypto people like quick money and he use doge to manipulate everyone with his tweets and  now from the look of things, doge is not doing any good again, may be the next time he comes back, they wouldn't want to buy his idea of influencing people to buy any coin and we may not have anything related to meme coins again.
1487  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of play to earn games on: March 25, 2023, 08:59:57 PM
The most entertaining, well done and complete Play to Earn games developed so far didn't show any respect and consideration for the community of players, rather their only goal was to milk money from players, without caring about long term goals and survival of the game. They were MIR4 and Ni No Kuni. Bots and toxic players killed the environment. And that is so sad, because the games were really good and promising.

With some adjustments those games could be popular until nowadays, while working as side income for many players. If at some point in the future a studio comes with a similar idea, but propitiating a friendly environment for every players (not only the addicted, wealthy ones) I think it will be a huge success.

It would always be a non-stop race - devs versus botters. The botters always find a way. Look at runescape for example - even with all the ban waves, people still bot to this day.
Such game would need to be profitable as a business and have really good funding to be able to fight back botters.

I think the devs knows the permanen solutions to this bots problems, it is hard to stop bots activities but if the developers doesbn't want bots on their gaming websites, they can do it but I guess they also need it to manipulate the numbers of users, that is what some of them use to show their stats to other gaming competitors, they can announced and bost of having million user but if you check very well, the real users might not be up to 100k playing game and they will be the quick to cry that users are stealing rewards, they want users and bots but afraid of how the rewards are stolen by users.
1488  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New projects come out when bull market begin. on: March 25, 2023, 08:17:53 PM
yes, of course the project team and developers are looking for and determining the right time to build and release their project, of course releasing the project when the bear market will be very detrimental, because in addition to falling coin prices, the attractiveness and buying interest of investors also decreases, so time the right one to release their project during a bull market

Some of this developers are scammers and thieves in disguise, if we are real and want to be honest with ourselves, which altcoins does as they promised? They usually don't do as they promise on the paper and that is why you see investors jumping from one garbage to another projects and the less understanding investors lose money at the end, if really these altcoins usually end as promised, no project will fail regardless of the time it is launch, whether it is bull run or bear market, they survive and do well but since they don't, they always wait for bull market they know that new investors will be in the market.
1489  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Circulating supply matters to you? on: March 25, 2023, 07:48:48 PM
What is the fair percentage of a total max supply that are in circulation that can make you invest in a project? It is fine to avoid a project that has low circulating supply? Why? What about if the project is a brand new project and the use case is killing it?

I don't have any problem with max supply as long the team doesn't temper with it and the contract, if it remain fix, the token will perform well regardless of what tokens are in circulation, the only place I think circulation supply usually have problem is when there is concentration of tokens to a group of whales who can damage the price and control the price, when this happen, they can go far by manipulating the Dao and everything will always be in their favour. Do you know that a coin can be healthy when the total supply is unlock and even distributedm by that I mean distributed in decentralized way in the sense that coins are not congested in a particular wallet.
1490  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will the altcoin go up in price if the bitcoin price goes up? on: March 25, 2023, 07:38:37 PM
I have watched the market and the price of bitcoin is going up, and I think and also usually if bitcoin goes up then the altcoins usually go up in price, for example if btc goes up 3% then altcoins always go up in the range of 7%. but what I see this time is not like that, for example if btc goes up 7% then the altcoin goes up only 3%.

and I want to ask you all what caused the market situation to be like that? and have people started distrusting altcoins or what?

The interesting part of the market dynamics and volatility is that some traders and investors believe that bitcoin has reached an excessive value and has become sufficiently big just by looking at it, it has gained tremendous value in the sense that to multiply it will require a sizable sum of money from whales. Let's compare the price of Bitcoin to that of Solana. At the current price of Bitcoin, which is $27k, and Solana's price, which is $21, it is much easier for Sol to double its price to $42 than it is for Bitcoin to double its amount to $52k. I don't think you can pump bitcoin to $52k overnight because you would have to double down the cryptocurrency market cap, which will be difficult.
1491  Economy / Economics / Re: Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing. on: March 21, 2023, 03:58:03 PM
The thing here is that social media platforms are the best place ever to advertise a business and there are more people on social media than else were. We are in a modern world where people didn't have to stress their selves about things
The best place for business advertising are Instagram, LinkedIn, and all the rest so social media is also part of a business's life on social media, there are a lot of people who are looking for business or jobs so business people should advise their products on social media.

Do you know that users who use social media dislike it when adverts are everywhere? I dislike it when a social app becomes cluttered with these ads. However, I do not blame them because they need to generate money for themselves and the app itself; any company that does not have a source of income from what they create for people will die because they will lose interest; nevertheless, I believe that when they do advertisements, they should be moderate; they should not litter everywhere with ads to the point where it would no longer make sense.
1492  Economy / Economics / Re: Has anyone felt lost in pursuit of financial freedom ? on: March 21, 2023, 03:46:05 PM
I don't think I'm at that level I can think of something of that such, lost interest, never! I am struggling to meet my basic requirements and bills, and as a man, if I am able to do all that, I am contendent with what I have, I dislike anything that has to do with greediness but I have who actually on earth get tired of financial freedom, the rich people in our community still hunt for more money, look at Elon Musk for example, he became the richest man but was not tired to get more, he went on to acquire Twitter and the purpose is to get more money from free jounalism.
1493  Economy / Economics / Re: Scarcity of money on: March 21, 2023, 03:39:08 PM
Why is there so much scarcity of money in different nations of the world, is there any crisis affecting UN's economy? People hardly meet up this days, the government has failed us, the banks are not working, companies and industries has reduced quality of products.

Is affecting so many countries in Africa, America and Europe, the rate of unemployment, insecurities and corruption is becoming alarming by day.

I hope we are save! The common masses are going through a lot in the street, is this kind of inflation era.
Why is money not in circulation please?

Which African country has scarcity? You generalize everything; you should have some statistical evidence to back up your explanation. My country has so much money in circulation that they are begging the public to return the money to commercial banks, which has affected the value of currencies. Because of this, they redesigned new notes to replace the old ones, and even with that, I don't think the scarcity is that great because the banks have the money, which has been shared between the rich men and the politicians, and we will see more cash before the end of the year.
1494  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think Bitcoin can end poverty? In a nation today on: March 21, 2023, 03:31:21 PM
For me proverty is not the problem of a person but of the whole nation in my country the eradication of poverty has becomes necessary for the sustainable and inclusive growth of the let state the fate here Bitcoin has helps the poor by Increasin their savings and access to capital also it has help around 1.7million people in my country and also it has also impoverished people to control their investment.

Poverty exist in all the countries and you cannot completely erase it from the country but having the opportunity to buy as an individual is a stepping stone in preventing poverty provided that it was bought when it was cheap. The problem now here is bitcoin has grown pass the point that I think poor person cannot buy, if a poor person have 1 bitcoin today, they will sell to settle their bills, so bitcoin at this point cannot eliminate poverty but can help get the rich get richer and they can also choose to use it against inflation as USD has lost it purchasing power according to Bloomberg.
1495  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and the Hart of humanity on: March 21, 2023, 03:23:35 PM
Desperation for money is not a good thing, we need the money actually but we should not forget that the money will end as soon as we stop breathing. I have learn somethings from bitcoin holders, they exist in two form, the first people that made money from bitcoin, some have used it to buy luxury cars and houses and acting riches even intimidating others and the second set of people are the hidden ones, quite alright, they have gain from holding bitcoin but you will never see them display wealth, you will fimd out that they help most of the time when people are in problem in this forum and I respect them, money is not everything to some people, we should learn to emulate this.
1496  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Will you advice a new trader to join a trading community or group? on: March 20, 2023, 08:44:20 PM
As a trader, things can get difficult and discouraging if you cannot relate with any other person who will have a good understanding of what you are saying concerning trading, to solve that challenge, are you part of any trading community or group that you share tips and new strategies? What other ways can you say you have benefited from being in a community asides sharing of tips and strategies. Are you doing better than when you did things on your own. Can there be any major disadvantage being a member of such a trading groups? What is your advice to people?

Community group is a good thing but you have to define the purpose from beginning. As a community, you main objective is to learn one or two things from different people, as they used to say that there is no knowledge that is a waste, you will get the opportunity to learn one or two things from other traders but never made a mistake of using another trader strategy, it may not end well. Another important thing you should look out for is scammers, they have one it two of them in every most community, try and avoid them and don't fall for their traps, knowledge should be your target.
1497  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Arbitrage in crypto on: March 20, 2023, 05:33:45 PM
Arbitrage in cryptocurrency trading is quite a risky business. You have to take into account delays in transferring coins, accidental account freezing, sharp price changes, interest on trade volume, and many other factors. mistakes can lead to loss of all profits created by hard work

The only coins I know traders can benefits from Arbitrage trading is proof stake coins, reason is that they are faster and will complete your transactions most likely in seconds, what the trader need to do is to only send between exchanges and everything will be settle. If a trader try it with any proof of work or any other type of blockchain, it will experience delay and the trader may loss in the process. What I also think again that will affect traders in this kind of trading is that when a trader send coin to exchange and they refuse to deposit is quickly onto the exchange, this are the problems that I think Arbitrage traders can face.
1498  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does a Morning Routine have any Effect as a Day Trader? on: March 20, 2023, 05:22:57 PM
This is cool but the funny thing is that, I don't have a routine reason is that I don't sit on my computer all day trading. I can set up 2 differents trades and later in the day close it and take whatever profits I made for that day and I also make sure I set up stop limit because market is volatle sometime. The only thing I know I am use to is I make sure I don't miss moerning breakfast before starting my day, this gives me energy to be able to focus and do everything in other, if I don't eat anything, then there is no activity of trading for that particular day, I may have another plan for the day.
1499  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Being drunk while trading what was your experience on: March 20, 2023, 05:17:17 PM
Sorry to raise this topic over here, it was too heavy for me to answer all alone so I decided to share here to see some reasonable answer from those that have been in such situations. An hour ago, I went out with a friend of mine and it happens to be a drinking hall (beer parlor) where he got drunk and as well trading.
The question is, can you trade while you are already drunk?
I was asked this question because I have never been in that mood before being drunk while trading and those who have been in that condition what was your actions and reaction while trading because I noticed something very hard for someone to be drunk and as well trade, do you make profits or keep losing maybe do you close your trade after being drunk.

I have reason where this topic should be posted but if any of you think this topic is not at the right place then suggest me the proper place where I can moved it to I will be very grateful.

The floor is always open for more discussions.

Why should anyone trade when drunk? Do you have plans to blow up your accounts with losses. It is more like I know that I am sick and yet, I went ahead to on my laptop and try to trade when I know that mentally, I am not fit to do anything. I did't even ask how intoxicated level could be but if I have taken 1 bottle of bear, I can trade and everything will be fine or maximum of 2 bottles but as soon as I exceed this limit, then I might have abuse my brain, I don't think I can look at my screen and still be confident that I can trade, I may be selling low and buying high if I don't caution my action.
1500  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it best to have a personal trading strategy? on: March 20, 2023, 05:12:00 PM
Trading does not have the best strategy, as long as it is making profits, I'm fine with it. A trader could be usimg Ichiokwu and some moving average (MA) lines and some may choose to use only the trend lines to indicate support and resistance and with that, there trade set up is completed. Some traders will tell you that too much indicators on your screen can mislead you but all this depend on what you used as a trader, if it is working for you and you are making profits, you should stick to that rule, if you try and copy others tradr, you may lose all your money.
