The team has a rich ownership that can afford any player they want. The team needs some fresh legs because they will be competing in a different competition. To avoid the effect of injury and fatigue the team needs to have more players that will serve as a formidable substitute in cases of emergency. It will not be bad to see new teams making waves in the Uefa Champion League next season and Newcastle could be one of them. I also want to see Newcastle competing to win the premiership next season so that Manchester City will not have a free day in the league. Newcastle is fortunate to have achieved much with a relatively unknown coach Eddie Howe. Unlike Graham Potter that failed at Chelsea, Howe has been able to restructure and built a team that can compete favorably in all competitions.

Thank you for your response @Nwada001 but seems to misunderstand my question. We must strive to make money because money is important to provide for our needs as you mentioned. There are places where you don't need money for medical bills, school fees, and transportation. They rely on traditional medicine, education, and more of transportation. I know places that still use horses, donkeys, and camels for transportation. You may need money to take care of these needs but many people don't need money to satisfy these needs. There are also many modern societies where education, healthcare, and transportation are free, so you don't need money to satisfy them.

Basic needs are food, water, shelter, and clothing. Others will include healthcare, education, and others. My question was that if you need money to satisfy your needs and you have the money, you perceive not poor. And if you can satisfy these without money, you are also rich. So a man that earns money in New York to satisfy his needs and a man that owns a large farm in a rural area of South America to satisfy his needs are just the same. Money shouldn't be a determinant factor to classify people as poor or rich. I don't need to eat in restaurants to satisfy my hunger because there are none in some areas.

Most African nations depend on Ukraine and Russia for many things. Economically these two nations supply most of the raw materials and finished products that help the economies of the continent. Africa suffered at the beginning of the invasion because most raw materials like wheat led to the high cost of bread. Academically the continent relies so much on Russia and Ukraine. Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine about 26,500 Africans were studying in Ukraine and many of them became dropouts. Many students that would have studied in Russia are not going because of security and diplomatic concerns. This is denying Africans the opportunity to access quality education. Politically it is affecting the continent because it is dividing us among the Western and Eastern blocs. Some of them have criticized the war while others have been silent.

Recently six African countries have scheduled to visit Russia and Ukraine in an attempt to seek peace. They are aware that this war is affecting the continent negatively and that the war should end. We know many more powerful nations have tried to end this war but failed, I am just praying that South Africa, Zambia, Senegal, the Republic of Congo, Uganda, and Egypt might find a way to end this war.

I see poverty as the inability to provide what you need. So when people assume that poverty is when you don't have money I don't agree. Now what if you have all you need and you don't require money to buy anything, are you poor? Some people live in communities where everyone lives agrarian life. They have all they need because everything they need to survive is available. Food is on the farm, water available and everybody is happy. Although it was hard during the Covid-19 lockdown many people lived without money. I have also seen many people leaving cities and moving to rural areas to live a natural life.

In summary when you have everything you need to survive and you don't need money, are you poor?

One of the benefits of owning a landed property is that it could save you the cost of paying house rent. In some countries owning a house can be expensive because of the cost of maintenance and tax. But in my country houses and lands are very viable properties because the price of land keeps appreciating and property tax is low. Some people buy cheap land in undeveloped areas and keep them until the place develops and they will sell the land at a very high price. And because of the population increase in my country, lands keep appreciating. And landed properties are very good collateral if you want to access loans from banks.

But buying land or a house Is not a guarantee that you will make a profit because conflict, violence, or war in your location can lead to a drop in the price of landed properties. Also, a place can experience mass emigration or immigration which will lead to a drop in population leading to a drop in the price of properties. I have seen some properties in Europe sold for very low prices because most of them have been abandoned by the owners.

That's his view about the post and that's not the general view of the members. I also observed that the newbie got a lot of merits from the post which means that the post makes a whole lot of sense. People will always view things from a different perspective and they also have the freedom and right to express themselves. This forum promotes freedom of speech which has helped members to express their views without intimidation.

In a group like this, there will always be disagreement which will most times lead to agreement and greater understanding. I have learned never to be offended by the words or thoughts of other members because everybody must not accept my views or post. This forum is far better than other forums in terms of the use of words because I hardly come across insulting words.

It depends on the amount of money that was won and the gambler. Although the majority of people that win always go back to gambling projecting to win more and in the process lose most of the money won. But I have also seen some gamblers that use their wins to invest in a business or landed properties. The gamers that go back to gambling wishing to win more are usually gambling addicts.
Every gambler has his personal goal or reason for gambling. Some believe that gambling is for fun and entertainment while others might see it as a means of raising capital for a profitable venture. But I don't think it is ideal to stop gambling when you win big especially when you have total control over your gambling life. The best option will always be to have a gambling plan that serves as a roadmap for your gambling activities.
I have always used my wins to solve my financial problems. I see my big wins as an opportunity to invest in some viable businesses or investments. This is because gambling wins are not predictable.

Children should be allowed to enjoy thier childhood. At this age, they like playing with toys, friends, and families. This level is also the foundation stage for their educational affairs, so they should not be overburdened with Bitcoin education. So I suggest that the comic book should just be an avenue to introduce the children to bitcoin and they should not be forced to embrace the coin. It should be simple and not bulky. Some of them might not be interested in the comic, while others might be, giving them the privilege to make their choices will be the best option. Some children are naturally attracted to finance and investment, and few of them might find the comic book interesting and embrace Bitcoin in the future.

Your intention is creative and I like it because it is cheap to implement. I also use to read cartoon books while growing up and I find them very entertaining and impactful. Some of our role models and superheroes were cartoon characters. I am sure you can get many of them if you do some research and fortunately you have started getting responses from forum members. I am hopeful that this your approach will teach them about bitcoin in a simple and entertaining manner. You should also go through the cartoon book before giving it out to the children to ensure that they are void of misinformation.  

This competition was not perfect but I believe next year's event will be better. There might be some flaws in the voting proceeds but without evidence, they remain mere speculation. Maybe the monetary benefit spurred some participants to go the extra mile of manipulating the votes. It could be that people also did some publicity and campaign encouraging people to vote for them. But one thing I am sure of is that we had a great time in this pizza competition. They might try to exploit the loopholes but they cannot stop me from having fun and smiling at some pizzas. I got 8 votes and didn't make it to the top 10 but I am proud of myself. See you guys at the 2024 Bitcoin Pizza bake-off contest.

I have had some difficulties submitting my information to some platforms and it was not funny. I kept on submitting some documents and the organization failed to accept them. If a casino refuses to confirm or accept my registration I won't be troubled but if they start asking for additional documents if I get a big win, then they might be fraudulent. Reputable casinos will not ask for more KYC because they don't want to pay their customer. Any casino that asked for more KYC after a big win without genuine reason should be avoided.

The reputation of the mediator is also very important. It might affect the reputation of the casino negatively if it is proven that their process is flawed because gamblers might avoid them. This mediation is time-consuming and nobody will be pleased to go through these processes.

Since it is the casino that chooses the third party it might be difficult to get a fair judgment. Trying to establish that the documents are real could lead the gambler to seek the counsel or services of a legal practitioner. It will even be more difficult if the casino company is not registered or have a representative in one's country.

Thank you, boss. People and even me sometimes feel that vetoing and assenting mean the same thing. They think vetoing a bill means approving it but it really means disapproving it. The brave Governor actually refused to accept this bill programmed to frustrate decentralization and reduce privacy. The bill wants to make US CBDC the only crytocurrency in the state.

What is wrong with South Dakota House? They are playing the script of the federal government which contains a plot to force people to turn to the dollar-backed CBDC. Kristi Noem has joined some governors that have recently stood their ground to protect Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. I want to commend the efforts of Conservative advocates that supported the governor in the process of vetoing the legislation. This is good news for the crypto space because this policy would have affected the use of cryptocurrencies in the State of South Dakota.

I can feel you are excited about joining the forum so you just expressed your views about Bitcoin and the forum. I am glad you joined the forum and if you intend to learn about bitcoin and contribute to the forum you will find here very interesting. Now you need to invest your time to learn about bitcoin and the forum. Even without logging in you can read materials in the forum and it will help you to identify your area of interest.

Now if you want to be a fruitful member of the form read the rules. This forum is guided by rules and you can find them in almost all the sections of the forum. Most of them are pinned at the top of each section. Read these rules and apply them accordingly. Avoid plagiarism, fraud, spamming, and others. You are welcome.

I am solely committed to bitcoin and willing to go up or down with bitcoin. After a thorough evaluation of the investment platforms I can invest in, Bitcoin looks like the safest and most affordable investment. Keeping my funds in my local currency is more risky because of inflation. And I can start Bitcoin investment with a percentage of my earning based on my capacity.

Bitcoin gives me the access to invest in it with as little as $20 every week. Using dollar-cost averaging is the best option because the risk is low since you buy at different price levels. For me, the best time to buy bitcoin is when you can afford it since the price is unpredictable. I believe that the price might go down sometimes but it will always suppose its former price.

The deal will be a good and prosperous way to end a career filled with success and some challenges. The 32year N’Golo Kante has been nicknamed the player with two hearts because of his strength and consistency. But in recent times injuries have been his biggest enemy. He is humble and easy going and there has never been any record of him having problems with any player or coach. I wish he seals this contract because he will need the money to enjoy his retirement.

He might not have off-the-pitch economic value like his fellow French player Benzema but Al-Ittihad will benefit from the experience, strength, and prowess o,f the French world cup winner. Younger players will be able to benefit from his experience and good character. Al-Ittihad seems to be more proactive than Al-Nassr because they want to keep dominating the Saudi Arabia Professional League. After losing Messi, SPL will still get more attention next season with the signing of Benzema and maybe Kante.

You asked a very good question because these scam websites have almost the same physical appearance as the original ones and can be hardly distinguished. But I have always known that the days of getting any coin for doing nothing have come and gone. So we need to be careful when these platforms come up with certain packages that are too lucrative. High profitability will always be the bait that will entice people to embrace these platforms. I have decided not to take part in most of these coins, tokens, and NFTs this is because I have not developed the needed skills to identify these fake coins. It will be better to only deal in coins that have shown to be reliable and genuine.

Some newbies might not be familiar with this simple but helpful security process. That is why I commend op for this thread. I also think that it will be difficult for hackers to successfully take full control of a hacked account if members are security conscience. If an account has been hacked the owners can immediately inform the forum, I have even seen threads of members informing the community that their accounts have been hacked. And they will be asked to sign a signature from an address. That's why it is important to attach an address to your account.

But sometimes hackers have access to inactive accounts and the users do not know about the hack. This will make these hackers successfully own the account because the owner might not complain about the hack until it is discovered after some time. So logging into an account periodically even when not in use could be helpful.

I went through the thread created by a member and posted by Charles-Tim and it became clear that you are a victim of a scam site. I have never come across the website but it is clear that the owner of the site is scamming people. And the site is still operational and more people will still be scammed. Sorry for your loss but it has become a lesson for others to avoid generating keys from online platforms. There are claims that the former owner of the website Canton Becker is still behind the name Sarkis Sarkissian. So it is an intentional move to defraud people of their money. Reporting this scam to the police will be a good move because it will be on record that you lost money using their services. Maybe in the future, the scammers behind this website might be unraveled and arrested.

I don't know where the Kingdom of Bhutan gets financial advice on cryptocurrency investment but I think they are not getting the complete information or are motivated by greed. Do they really need to use exchanges or crypto firms like BlockFii and Celsius to invest in or buy Bitcoin? All they would have done was to set up a governmental agency that will handle the mining, buying, storing, and selling of any cryptocurrency. Investing through these centralized exchanges or platforms is very risky.

The investment of Bhutam and other small nations might look insignificant based on the amount they can afford to invest. But this is a plus to the Bitcoin space because it will lead to an increase in awareness and adoption. These developing nations are seeking diverse means to diversify their economy and attract investors and capital.

Bhutan is indeed setting the pace for other nations to follow. Hydropower electricity is not a totally clean and green energy but it is far better than using oil and gas powered electricity generators. I am surprised that is a relatively unknown country that is tapping into the benefits of bitcoin.

They fail to understand that money is important but it is not the most important thing in life. Good health, a compatible marriage partner, and children that are outstanding in character and learning is much more important than riches. If I can have money that would be enough to take care of my family and help some poor people in my community, I think I am okay. The uncontrollable quest for wealth is the reason why there are high rates of criminal activities. People are not satisfied with what they have because they want to look like thier role models who are always celebrities. And these celebrities live fake by deceiving their followers that they have much money, while they are living on debt or credit. They best thing to do in life is to focus on yourself and don't wish to be like another person.
