1581  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Bitcoin will always remain the best choice on: September 19, 2022, 01:56:09 PM
I have no doubts about the advantages of bitcoin with gold. but of course both have their advantages. such as gold which is suitable as savings because the price is not too volatile and relatively stable. different from bitcoin which is more suitable to be used as an investment asset. because even though the fluctuation is high. but it is proven that bitcoin can always break price records when the bull market returns. currently blocking the rate of increase in bitcoin is from the economic crisis that hit the world.
1582  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have started teaching Bitcoin to my Neighbors on: September 19, 2022, 09:59:22 AM
Being able to teach bitcoin to other people is a great thing. because I felt the benefit myself from someone teaching me bitcoin. although he doesn't teach much. but it means a lot to me. because I became more familiar with bitcoin little by little.

I also hope to teach my brothers and sisters about bitcoin. but I have to wait for the right time. because someone has taught me that I have to get other people to come to me. because it's more effective. and it will be ineffective if I teach those who are not interested. but at this time I myself am still learning because I too have not studied it for a long time.
and learning something that interests you is much more fun.
1583  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is your plan with Bitcoin? on: September 19, 2022, 09:42:56 AM
I feel excited today. because I managed to collect back BTC in the area that I have bought. and I'm still waiting for a repurchase in the deeper areas.

so my plan about bitcoin is to keep collecting it for now. and I see the support that must be tested this time is very strong. so maybe I will start buying more in the support area now. i.e. areas 17-18.
but if it is penetrated. then I will also prepare a buy entry at the bottom around 12-15. but I hope bitcoin can bounce back from the current price.

all I can do is just keep collecting bit by bit. while waiting for the market to return to positive. whether it's this year or next year.
1584  Economy / Economics / Re: Age as a factor depreciating some people of their dreams on: September 18, 2022, 08:48:21 PM
The age factor is sometimes an obstacle for some people. but not an obstacle for some people.
it depends on the motivation obtained for each person.
it is important to keep the motivation in us so that it does not weaken even though we continue to grow. examples of successful people in old age. can increase our motivation. that age is not a barrier. as long as we are still healthy and able then do it. so basically maintaining physical health and mental health (motivation) is very very important in life. and motivation can grow if we continue to focus on the goals to be achieved.

And so that people do not easily give up on the dreams achieved, the motivational factor must be maintained.
The following factors can be expected to keep the motivation within us so that we do not give up on our dreams even though we are getting old.

1. Have a Clear Vision of Life
2. The feeling of wanting to be a winner
3. Want to be successful in facing life's challenges
4. Have someone who wants to be happy
5. have a high sense of love either to someone or to yourself
6. the desire to always give the best.
7. the desire to always set an example for our families and children.
8. know the benefits that will be obtained from the thing being fought for.
9. have a high sense of responsibility in fulfilling rights and obligations.
10. have someone who always supports and appreciates us.

These are the factors that must be possessed so that motivation is maintained so that we do not give up on achieving our dreams.
may be useful.

1585  Economy / Economics / Re: Savings during inflation on: September 18, 2022, 08:40:06 PM
Saving some money in the bank when inflation will be very detrimental. because the value of the money we save will actually continue to shrink. as exemplified by the OP. Prices of goods continue to increase during inflation. if inflation continues then for example if today we can buy a bicycle for $ 100 then 2 years later I'm pretty sure the price of a bicycle can reach $ 200. so if we have money now $100 and we save it in the bank. and 2 years later we took the $100 bill. then know that even though the amount of money is intact, its value has dwindled. because the price of goods must have increased in the next 2 years.

That's why investing is sometimes more profitable than saving in times of inflation.

because of inflation many sectors are harmed.
The following are the parties who are disadvantaged during inflation, namely:

1. People who save money
 unconsciously the money they save continues to depreciate in value. because the price of goods continues to increase during inflation.

2. those who don't have a home
those who are homeless are the losers during inflation. because house prices will continue to rise. So buying a house becomes difficult because prices continue to increase.
those who rent a place to live will also find it difficult during inflation because the rent burden will usually be increased by the owner of the rent.

3. retirees
those who receive pension funds also suffer losses during inflation. because the amount of currency they regularly get from pension funds is not the same in value. because the value of the currency continues to decline during inflation. and prices of goods continue to rise during inflation.

and there are many other parties who are disadvantaged during inflation. then this is where the importance of maintaining the value of our assets. instead of keeping the amount of our money. because the value of money can decrease during inflation. then investing in goods and properties whose prices continue to increase during inflation is the right thing
1586  Economy / Economics / Re: Lenders and borrowers during inflation on: September 18, 2022, 08:23:19 PM
The discussion on inflation is indeed very interesting. especially if we look from the perspective of who will benefit and who will be disadvantaged in this rising inflation situation.

true what the OP said. that the Borrower will benefit when inflation comes because the value of the money paid will be of lower value than when the value when applying for a loan.

and it is not only a borrower who benefits in this inflationary situation but there are several others who benefit in this situation.

such as the following.

1. Owner of a house or building
Of course, this is a common occurrence when property price inflation such as houses and land will experience a high increase. That's why the property business is always a profitable choice even in times of inflation.

2. People who have big debt
Like what the OP said. that debt lenders benefit from inflation. because the value of money paid will be lower than before inflation and compared to when receiving the loan at the beginning.

3. Stock investors
basically the price of goods will increase and of course will make profits go up because the stock price will follow the increase. many investment sectors that make investors protected the value of their assets during inflation. different from people who save money in the bank. their value for money is not growing at all. instead experience depreciation during inflation.

In fact, there are many other sectors that have experienced a positive impact from this inflation, such as commodity investors and entrepreneurs. but the sector that suffered losses was far more.


1587  Economy / Economics / Re: Savings during inflation on: September 17, 2022, 12:36:22 PM
Many people are late in saving and investing, most people are wasteful when they have money and large income, but when inflation is important is saving and making a lot of investment, when inflation is of course many things that are difficult to predict so that with saving then we can save finances.
That is correct and I am one of them
I have realized it late and we all must have some emergency funds to help our needs.
And you should not disclose your secrets to anyone - especially the financial secrets. I made alot of mistakes in my life and I am not going to do that again.
Saving requires high discipline and discipline can be formed by getting used to it little by little. but when inflation takes place sometimes we find it difficult to manage finances. because we need to adjust the needs that must be purchased. because the goods we usually buy will certainly increase due to inflation. so the funds to save sometimes become reduced. because now we need to spend more money for daily shopping. because the price of basic necessities continues to increase.
1588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Terra Luna Classic pumping - can it last? on: September 17, 2022, 12:27:03 PM
every coin price that is pumped is very risky for a dump to occur. so I think the pump that happened to LUNC won't last long. but LUNC looks to do a healthy pump. so the possibility of dumping will not take place quickly. even if the LUNC coin will go down then I think the decline will be slow. but now after Do kwon's arrest then I think it's very risky to get into LUNC. better to be safe.
1589  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen to LUNC after its founder is arrested?! on: September 17, 2022, 12:18:57 PM
I'm not sure to get into the LUNC coin. because it's too risky. but when the arrest warrant was issued by the South Korean government against Do Kwon, I actually felt strange about the LUNC coin. because yesterday the LUNC Coin actually rose again and the pump looks very healthy and positive. so I assume that behind the LUNC pump is not directly influenced by Do Kwon. but indeed from the belief of the community itself.
1590  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not panic. Everything will get better on: September 16, 2022, 01:10:33 PM
The more you get into panic, more will be the loss. With cryptocurrency the user need good patience and the ability to hold long term. There'll be immediate market changes on the upward as well as downward direction. By the time some decision out of emotion will cause massive loss. By the time it is good to hold than worrying about the decline in the value of cryptocurrency while holding.
Sometimes panic is easy to affect the performance of our brain. so that our minds and analyzes become dull. and it is like you said that it is patience that must be applied when panic comes. although holding back is something difficult. but at least we have to be patient until our minds become clear again to make decisions that will be taken. because if we make decisions when panicking. then the decisions we take can be wrong or wrong decisions. because it is not based on careful consideration of the results of the analysis of a clear and calm mind.
1591  Other / Archival / Re: Entrepreneurship or Office job? on: September 16, 2022, 12:05:55 PM
I think being an entrepreneur requires a lot of patience, for me, who works in an office with a monthly salary that is often lacking, it will be difficult to become an entrepreneur who is more suitable for those who are already in the financial security zone.
Anyone can become an entrepreneur, they don't have to be big financially, they all come from small, which will later grow to be big, that's why there are many processes that occur, so I think even though we are financially supportive, but our expertise in the field we are living, we don't understand, then it won't work. well, all entrepreneurs will prefer where they have mastered everything, so they can do it without having big financial capital.

Working in an office does have a salary, it depends on the place where we work, but what is certain is that the salary of an office will not exceed the income of an entrepreneur because he is the boss and he will get all his income.

Anyone can do it myself. I work in an office that is still running, while entrepreneurship is still in the process stage to show that I can become a successful entrepreneur.
totally agree with your opinion about building entrepreneurship. Opening your own business is difficult at first. because in addition to financial capital is a constraint. but the most important capital is expertise and courage in taking steps. because when we step into the entrepreneurial zone. then from there we get out of the comfort zone and safe. and it takes a lot of courage. then only people who dare to take risks are always successful in building entrepreneurship. Opening your own business is called high risk because you will not have a fixed salary like working in an office. our income depends on our success or failure in building the business itself. if we fail then the loss is obtained. but we still have an advantage in terms of lessons from the failures that we experience. so that when we start again, we already know where the mistakes that made our previous efforts failed. that is why it is said that Experience is the best teacher. In addition, the capital that must be owned by a businessman is mental capital and mindset capital. because often mental will be tested a lot in business and in entrepreneurship.
1592  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC or Gold Investment? on: September 16, 2022, 07:50:13 AM
For me Gold is only suitable for Asset storage and Asset value keeper. like savings. for investment will not bring too much profit.
but bitcoin is very suitable for investment. just enter when the market is bearish like now. and when the bullrun market comes then we can see our portfolio grow. but for gold it can also be for investment but it takes a longer time. because 1-5 years will not be too much change in the price of gold. so I say gold is more suitable for maintaining and storing the value of assets or used as savings.
1593  Economy / Economics / Re: MAP of cbdc adoption over the world. on: September 15, 2022, 03:23:07 AM
Somehow I feel CBDC is not really needed. because its value will be equal to the value of the country's currency itself. and can only be used in the country itself. because when we go to other countries. then we have to keep converting CBDC coin to CBDC coin in the country we are visiting. isn't that the same as ordinary money. which can be transferred via m-banking (mobile). our money is in the bank but we can transact anywhere via m-banking on our mobile phone. isn't that practical? and if go to another country. then we just exchange our money into the money of the country visited. and even then it can be done only through internet transactions or m-banking. without having to hold money in hand.
So what is the difference between CBDC functions and ordinary currencies that can be used practically anywhere through m-banking transactions?
maybe I'm talking like this because I don't really understand the difference in function between the two. and the advantages between the two.

but I think people need a currency that can be spent in every country without having to exchange it first. such as Bitcoin. if bitcoin is accepted in every country then the transaction will be much easier. or with other altcoins.
I have to learn more about this CBDC. because I think that way due to my lack of knowledge. and that's what people who don't understand like me say. please correct and later I will read it. because I want to learn.
1594  Economy / Economics / Re: Wheat War I is going to be World War III on: September 15, 2022, 03:05:42 AM
i also dont understand why purposely ban fertilizers from the beginning, it started a chain reaction up to starve countless countries.
old fertilizers still works like the guano but farmers today are not very familair with it.
What I've found with my little research is that the problem is about yield.

With these fertilizers (rich with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) they can keep reusing the same soil and harvest a lot and multiple times a year. With no fertilizer or with traditional ones the yield significantly decreases and you can't harvest as many times. The soil simply doesn't have what the crop needs to grow.
Not to mention that you can't produce nearly as much traditional fertilizers like guano!

So for example if a wheat farmer was producing 1 ton of wheat before, without these fertilizers they can produce only 20-30% of that.

correctly. When we do agriculture, the land is not too large. then it is still possible to use organic fertilizers produced by themselves, such as fermented animal urine for spray fertilizer and fermented manure for sow fertilizer. But organic fertilizers have limitations. because we cannot possibly mass produce processed organic fertilizers ourselves. so when we farm in a large area. then the need for fertilizer must be very much. while organic fertilizers are difficult to make in a short time and difficult to make in large quantities. unless there is a special industry that makes it. as in Indonesia, there are now many companies producing liquid fertilizers. with low prices but the quality is not less competitive with chemical fertilizers.
but if you have to keep buying fertilizer. then the profit will still be small. especially coupled with the price of crops that decline during inflation. fertilizer increased but agricultural yields fell. This is what is happening in some developing countries. this can trigger farmers' protests against government policies. whereas the agricultural sector is the sector that the government should pay the most attention to. because the lungs of a country are in the agricultural and livestock sectors. related to food. but I see in developing countries the government does not pay attention to the farmers. they pay more attention to the construction of high-rise buildings. construction of the office sector and toll roads. while the agricultural sector is always marginalized. even though the food crisis can bring down a country.
1595  Economy / Economics / Re: Flood causing economics crises on: September 15, 2022, 02:52:24 AM
Mild flooding to severe flooding will all have an impact on the economy of the area.
even electricity will be cut off in the flood-affected areas. so that there is no short circuit and so that electricity does not hit the water which can cause people to be electrocuted. night conditions will be a scary night when the flood and the power goes out. then it is certain that shops and all types of business will be stopped. even the delivery and receipt of goods will be hampered. so the price spike will be very high. well, if the flood is at a catastrophic level, it destroys everything that the flood passes, such as gardens and rice fields, houses and all community property. then the economy will definitely be paralyzed there. and even worse what must be considered is that the impact is not only a matter of the economy but the survival of human life itself aka life. HR will be reduced. famine will spread. financial loss can no longer be calculated. which means we can not underestimate the occurrence of flooding. because it affects all sectors of life.
1596  Economy / Economics / Re: What define your success, "money, fame or achievement"? on: September 14, 2022, 11:29:15 PM
Recently I read a lot of biographies of successful people. because that's how I am. I like to motivate myself by reading stories from people who have been successful.
then I found several factors in determining a person's success. and surprisingly high IQ and high school in prestigious universities are not included in these factors. The name of the person who put forward the determining factors for success was an author of a book entitled millionaire mind, namely Thomas J. Stanley, Ph.D.

The factors that he mentioned are:
1. Honesty (Being honest with all people)
2. Hard Discipline (Being well-disciplined)
3. Easy to get along with (Getting along with people)
4. Having a supportive spouse
5. Working harder than most people
6. Love for what you do (Loving my career/business)
7. Leadership (Having strong leadership qualities)
8. Competitive personality (Having a very competitive spirit/personality)
9. Living regularly (Being very well-organized)
10. Ability to sell ideas (Having an ability to sell my ideas/products)


And I also found that the idea and definition of success according to rich people and successful people who are already famous in the world. Take Bill Gates for example.
Bill Gates defines success as Happiness. he does not measure success based on the money he has earned. Instead, he measures every achievement by his own happiness. isn't that simple? yeah it's simple. because a successful life is happy. that is when we can feel happy even though it's in ordinary moments and in ordinary conditions.
1597  Economy / Economics / Re: How Much Garden You Would Need to 100% Survive On on: September 13, 2022, 07:42:29 AM
Growing crops for yourself and your family will actually be quite easy. because it certainly does not require a large area of ​​land. This is different from farming where the produce is for sale. Of course it requires a large area of ​​land as well as extra energy and high capital.

if you grow crops for yourself and your family, using chemical fertilizers will still be affordable. because buying vegetables and grains from the market will still be more expensive than growing yourself. but if we can grow plants with our own processed compost, it will be much more efficient.

but for large-scale farming it will require large amounts of fertilizer. so of course it will be difficult to make organic fertilizer on a large scale.

unless there is an agricultural group that cooperates in making it.

What do you think is the most promising coin right now for investment?
I'm liking the waves coin these days. because I started to see the history of the price movement of this coin. and what surprises me is that this coin can always reach ATH. and now the price I think is quite cheap. so maybe I'll think about investing in Waves. and expect to profit when the market has become positive or bullish. but I still have to investigate it further. because I don't want to suffer big losses in the future.
1599  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Terra Luna Classic pumping - can it last? on: September 11, 2022, 07:38:20 AM
I am fairly new to crypto and in July I took a gamble on terra luna classic when it was 0.00009 and it is now pumping. Can someone explain why this is and what the chances of it lasting are?

I have been following it more closely over the last week as it has began getting more and more attention and apparently a lot is happening over the next few weeks which is driving the price up currently but not sure what it all means?

How realistic are the chances of it reaching $0.01 or $0.10 and how long will this take? Months or years?

I am not selling just yet but this is seeing the best returns I have had in crypto so far so may take out my investment soon and let the profit ride.
for Luna classic (LUNC) it looks like the pump this time is not a pump by chance. but there is indeed good news in the LUNC community. because as we know that the LUNC coin has been held by the community. so it depends on the community itself. but so far the event burn tax has been approved by many exchanges. if you want to know more you can read the news on CMC. for 0.1 I guess it will take years. because seeing the supply in circulation is so large that it is impossible to implement in the near future.

It's actually quite difficult to know which bounties are good or not. Bounties that have high potential or not will be difficult to find. I'm still a beginner so I don't know much. but at least I'm sure that a good manager will choose a good bounty project. so the reputation of the manager can be used as a reference here. because a conscientious manager will definitely not accept a project arbitrarily. because it could damage his reputation if his campaign project turned out to be a scam.
