As long as there are expenses in life, you will always look for ways to get extra money even though you already have a lot of wealth. Prestige makes someone always want to be number one or have a higher degree than other people, someone will feel proud if their house is better than other people, the car they use is more luxurious than other people.
A sense of satisfaction in seeking wealth is very difficult for someone to have, government officials who already live in luxury also want to have more money, they are even willing to commit corruption to achieve their goals. Money is like a beautiful woman, one will do anything to get it.

What you said is absolutely correct, money is like pretty girls and I bet everyone wants to. Anyone who says they don't want to is just lying, they're trying to hide their lust from everyone, but deep inside, they're just as lusty as anyone. Indeed, money is never enough, even though we already have enough money to support our lives, but we will always want more even though we won't use it. It is human nature, human greed is hard to restrain and stop. We don't need to talk about any politician or anyone but think about ourselves, we are all equally greedy.

PSG 2 - 3 clermont

After leading 2-0 after just 21 minutes, I never imagined that PSG would be beaten so badly. From the performance of PSG's players, I felt they had no desire to win this match. Clermont's players would have won the match 4-2 had they not missed the chance to score from the penalty spot. Despite having such a strong squad, PSG's performance is very poor. If Neymar and Messi leave the team next season, it will be difficult for PSG to win the Ligue 1 title. The PSG team is going to face big problems next season.
The team may have filled with world-class star players, but their defense is proving to be useless as they continuously give away easy goals. The match was a complete disappointment, and it's evident that psg needs a proper structure. Despite losing by 3-2, they remain the champions of France. However, they barely secured their league title, which indicates that they are not performing at their best potential. As they head into the next season, there are concerns that they will face significant challenges if they don't address their vulnerabilities soon.

All in all, PSG's situation is now very critical. Their squad has been very strong this season. Even then their performance was not good. The performances of their defenders in particular have been erratic since the start of the season. And yet the PSG coach has not been able to tighten up their defence. And next season PSG's defence as well as the attack will be weaker. Looking forward to seeing what steps the PSG management takes to strengthen their squad. But I would say first of all they should hire an experienced coach.

It's literally different to fiat money when you save Bitcoin as savings since it has a volatile nature that doesn't suit for savings. Plus you control your funds as you like and you take actions to earn or profit in Bitcoin which you take advantage from its volatility. In fiat money when you save in banks or by yourself which can be affected by inflation or bankruptcy but it's just simply withdraw and deposit without profits.

I don't think that putting money into bitcoin is considered saving, I mean, a volatile asset would be more suitable for investment and speculation than for saving. Saving means we seek to keep the value of our assets stable, and what if you bought bitcoin for $50k and its current value is dropping a lot? Bitcoin is not the perfect place to use as a savings account, and many people are still confused about this.

Although saving in fiat will have some problems, such as inflation will eat away at your money and interest rates will not be as high as investment, but we must always have a savings account. Because investments don't always generate returns, life is full of surprises, and savings will help us in that case.
1725  Economy / Economics / Re: I hear de-dollarsotaion over and over again it's funny on: June 03, 2023, 04:03:54 AM
IMO USD is in a bad shape and the FED fucked itself up with Covid lockdowns. They were already printing a lot and this meant increased inflation that they'd have to curb at some point, but then we had that covid problem and they overreacted. They made people stay at home, limited their ability to work, travel, have fun, locked some of their spending. Spending means money in the economy and more taxes paid, but the government disturbed that flow and printed even more to restart the engine. There came Powell with the idea to go hard and show how they can keep increasing rates for a whole year, but as we all can see this did not work. Unemployment isn't going up, spending isn't going down and the longer they do this the more the markets know they pivot is near.
Of course China and Russia are spreading rumors about dollar losing its reserve status and so on because they want it to be weaker and weaker so that more countries choose to trade with them, preferably in their new unified currency.

First, many people have always criticized the government for overreacting during the covid pandemic by restricting people's activities. But I want to ask you, if you are, do you have a more effective solution than the government during the pandemic? Maybe what they did was not quite right, but they tried their best to save everyone because everything came so suddenly. Even many politicians have died from the pandemic, what more can you expect from them? If we can't help, don't criticize other people's ideas either.

Coming back to the topic, you are correct in saying USD is in bad shape, and competitors like Russia and China are looking to devalue USD. I also don't like USD when it has dominated the world for so long and created a world imbalance. But to say that de-dollarization will succeed is an illusion. That will probably happen but not now and in the near future, USD's competitors need to work harder to beat it.
Things are going very badly, but I believe the US government is still controlling everything, and it may just be their game, look at how they got through the 2011 crisis you will see the outcome of the crisis this panic.

Srilanka still in the game but they need wickets to win this game. So far it's dry performance from Srilanka bowlers as they have picked only 2 wickets. The game can turn into SL favor if they can pick wickets in quick interval.
Expected Sri Lanka to perform better as Afghanistan is touring and yet they are able to perform better restricting Sri Lanka to 268 runs with Charith Asalanka playing the sole innings of 91 runs and the rest of the players did not contribute much and their bowlers are not able to pick wickets and put pressure on Afghanistan batsman and now they are cruising to victory as they only need 39 runs to win.
Afghanistan get a comfortable victory against Sri Lanka in the first ODI match, even without their star player Rashid Khan. Afghan team now holds a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. It was wonderful to witness the team's excellent teamwork and performance on the field, resulting in their convincing win. Ibrahim Zadran, fearless batting approach was truly delightful to watch. He came incredibly close to scoring his fourth ODI ton, falling just two runs short.
Excellent performance by Afghanistan team in the 1st match of this ODI series. Sri Lanka scored 268 runs in just 50 overs. But the score was not satisfactory. Kusal Mendis and Angelo Mathews failed that is the reason to collect a healthy score for Sri Lankan team and the score of the match was not as expected which made it very easy for Afghanistan to win the match. Despite the loss, Asalanka played a good role in the team. But sadly he didn't get the century by just 9 runs. Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bowl, this decision help them to win the match.

I thought this match would be competitive. But in the match, we saw the dominance of Afghanistan players. The way Sri Lanka started their innings. I thought the team would not be able to give a target of 200 runs. But as a result of the responsible batting of Asalanga and Dhananjaya, they gave a good enough target of 269 runs. But their bowling was poor. Apart from Afghan opener Rahamanullah Gurbaz, every batsman's performance was quite good. Ibrahim Zadran played a brilliant innings of 98 runs. Afghanistan is the most likely to win this series. The performance of any Sri Lankan player is not regular.

Bangladesh A team will lose badly against West Indies. Bangladesh lost their first wicket by 25 runs. And the Bangladesh team lost three wickets to collect only 66 runs. And now Bangladesh's collection is only 70 runs. Bangladesh are still trailing by 375 runs. Now if the batsmen of Bangladesh are not able to build a big partnership then the Bangladesh team will not be able to collect even 250 runs. Yasir Ali and Saif Hassan are batting now. If this pair does not play well, I will say Bangladesh will lose all wickets before 250.
The Bangladesh A team is batting irresponsibly against the West Indies A team. Because if Bangladesh is 250 or 300 runs behind the West Indies in the first innings, Bangladesh may be invited to bat again by the West Indies A team. In that case, the chances of Bangladesh losing by innings are very high. I had a bit of faith in the front row batsmen but the way they got out now I don't have a bit of faith in these batsmen who will see Bangladesh all out against West Indies at any moment. Because tomorrow when Bangladesh will start batting in a new way and West Indies will start bowling with a new ball, it will be very difficult for the Bangladeshi batsmen to face the new ball.
Even though this is the Bangladesh A team a lot of players in this team have already played in the national team of Bangladesh. So I do not understand how Bangladesh can perform so badly! Maybe the Bangladesh team is not taking this seriously because this is an unofficial test match. But that is certainly not an excuse which should be given by the players.
Bangladesh team has multiple players who should be performing a lot better than they are doing right now. I don't know if they actually take cricket seriously or just as a hobby. I believe there should have some reality checks being done to them by not getting selected in the future. That will make them try to perform better.
If we think that Bangladesh players are not taking this match seriously after seeing the unofficial test match then we will be wrong because Bangladesh A team is failing despite trying against West Indies A team. 
Several top players are playing for Bangladesh but still they are not doing well. Basically Bangladesh's main problem is that they are not that used to Test cricket. Bangladesh is not able to achieve much success in this cricket even after trying for a long time. 
And one more thing is that the interest of the players in this five-day match is a little less so the result of the test match is like this.
BCB should be strict about this. If BCB is not strict about this then their test cricket will never improve.
I think the Bangladesh team is not taking this series seriously. But Bangladesh should play these series very seriously. Because the Bangladesh team is always weak in the Test format. They should boost their confidence and make themselves more experienced by performing well in these matches. But the Bangladesh team is not doing that.
Bangladesh players collected only 205 runs in the first innings. And in the second innings, the two openers started well enough. Despite collecting 45 runs, Bangladesh did not lose any wickets. Every West Indies bowler had a good performance. The West Indies team will also perform better in the Test format in future.
After drawing the first match against the West Indies A team, Bangladesh A team lost in the second match. Bangladesh will restart the third day's play of the third match on the last fourth day. So far Bangladesh need 414 runs to win. 414 runs is very difficult for Bangladesh to collect. As it is a four-day Test match, if Bangladesh can hold on to all the wickets today, then there is a possibility that this match will be a draw. Even though the opening pair is still unbeaten on wickets, still I would say that West Indies A team has more chances to win this match. If West Indies win today's match, they will take a 2-0 lead in the series.

If the match was not for 4 days, maybe Bangladesh would have won this match. Bangladesh's batsmen's performance in the first innings was very poor. Bangladesh's collection in the first innings was only 205 runs. I thought I might see similar poor batting from Bangladesh in the second innings as well. But Bangladesh collected 306 runs after losing only 4 wickets in the second innings. Opener Joy was unbeaten on 114 runs. Also, Yasir Ali scored 67 and Zakir scored 43 runs. Bangladesh's batsmen have played well enough. But their performance needs to be more consistent for Test matches.

Sevilla once again proved that they deserve the title of King of the Europa League. The success of the Rojiblancos in blowing Roma is indeed thanks to Bono's heroic actions that deserves appreciation. In contrast to Bono, Mancini was the most unlucky player in that match, he twice caused disastrous consequences for his own team so that the title he already held had to fall back into Sevilla's hands. Yes, the defeat of Roma in the final also decided Mourinho's achievements on the European stage. And I predict Mourinho will probably leave his job soon and will return to adventure with his new team next season.
Actually Mourinho has done very well bringing Roma to the final is an achievement that cannot be underestimated that sure is impressive
it's just that luck was not on Roma side they were defeated on penalties at least they lost in respectable and have struggled
I agree with you maybe Mourinho will leave Roma next season he will look for another team and continue his impressive record.
It is not always right to hold everything to luck. Because even if Roma had lost 5-4 or 4-3 on penalties, it would have been accepted that Roma lost because of their bad luck. But while Roma lost 4-1 on penalties, it can be said that Roma lost because of their poor performance of goalkeeping. Roma's players were also very well prepared and played well throughout the game.  But eventually Roma lost due to poor goalkeeping

I would say Roma lost because of bad luck. Teams can't win unless they have good luck in the penalty shootout. I have seen many experienced goalkeepers in the past not perform well in the penalty shootout and the team lost as a result. However, the penalty shootout will become more exciting if Roma's goalkeeper performs a bit better. At the same time, Roma had to concede the goal due to Mancini's error. It was also completely unexpected. If Mancini hadn't made a mistake, maybe Roma would have won 1-0 and been champions. It is for these reasons that I say Roma can't be champions entirely due to bad luck.

We did not get the expected performance from Ajax in this match. Ajax has scored a lot of goals this season as in previous seasons. And they don't concede too many goals. However, Ajax have won just 20 of their 34 matches this season. Ajax have scored 86 goals this season. League champions Feyenoord scored 81 goals. Ajax should balance their performance.

Next season Ajax will definitely be playing for the title. PSV, Alkmaar and Feyenoord will also be looking to win the title. So far we have only seen the dominance of Ajax in the Eredivisie. But several teams will be aiming for the league title next season. It won't be easy for Ajax to become champions.
Ajax were simply not as dominant as in previous years and conceded too many goals, especially in the crucial games, such as against PSV. They conceded twice as many goals as last season, you can't win the championship like that, especially Feyenoord having a great season.
Things are happening at Ajax and they know they need to strengthen their defence and they will invest in that i think. Next season could be another three-way battle for the title, but can Feyenoord produce a second outstanding season?

Ajax and PSV have been somewhat weaker this season than in previous seasons. Their performance was quite erratic. The start of the season saw Ajax drop points in several matches and fall far behind. And Feyenoord's performance was very consistent. Feyenoord have been able to win the title thanks to their consistent performance. However, the Eredivisie league is expected to be more competitive in the coming season. Along with Ajax and PSV, Feyenoord will also fight for the title. And so the possibility of Ajax's dominance in the next season seems less likely to me.

West Indies A   vs   Bangladesh A

Bangladesh A team is now playing the last match of the 3-match Test series against the West Indies A team. At the end of the first innings, the West Indies team managed to collect 445 runs. Bangladeshi bowler Nasum Ahmed bowled well in the first innings. He bowled 38.2 overs and managed to take 5 wickets. Musfik and SHoriful also picked up two wickets each.

Bangladesh is as usual weak in Test format. And Bangladesh A team's situation is similar. Bangladesh drew the first match. And they lost the second match. Bangladesh scored 22 runs in the third match and still did not lose any wickets. But there is little chance that Bangladesh will win. The match will be a draw or West Indies will win.
In the third Test match against Bangladesh, the West Indies team batted first and managed to score 445 runs after losing all the wickets in the second innings. If two wickets fall so quickly, then Bangladesh will be far behind West Indies in the first innings. Right now Bangladesh needs a good partnership. If wickets fall at regular intervals then the result of this test match will not be good for Bangladesh. So far, Bangladesh is 403 runs behind the West Indies team.

Bangladesh A team will lose badly against West Indies. Bangladesh lost their first wicket by 25 runs. And the Bangladesh team lost three wickets to collect only 66 runs. And now Bangladesh's collection is only 70 runs. Bangladesh are still trailing by 375 runs. Now if the batsmen of Bangladesh are not able to build a big partnership then the Bangladesh team will not be able to collect even 250 runs. Yasir Ali and Saif Hassan are batting now. If this pair does not play well, I will say Bangladesh will lose all wickets before 250.

Nothing changed in the last round, neither Ajax nor AZ could win. I wouldn't have expected such a poor performance from Ajax, but even the win wouldn't have changed anything, as PSV also won. All in all, a disappointing season for Ajax.

Ajax have to change a lot for the next season.

I also have the same thought that AS Roma currently has Mourinho who can bring his players and this club to win the European league cup.
Sevilla has been the defending champion in the past but I don't see that strength this season and with my belief that Sevilla this season might be a little difficult to win.
If you look at the strengths of these two teams, I think the two of them are still quite balanced because Sevilla is also a good team so that Sevilla was able to reach the final in the Europa League this season, although I also don't rule out the luck factor for the two teams who have been in the Europa League final in this season. Because they are both lucky to be in the Europa League final to prove who will be the best team and also the champion this season in the Europa League

Between Sevilla and Roma, it is not possible to consider a team as a favourite. Both teams are strong here. And the important thing is that since the beginning of this season, Roma and Sevilla's main goal has been to perform well in the Europa League. And so despite not doing well in their own league, Sevilla and Roma have played well in every Europa League match. Sevilla are in pretty good shape. On the other hand, Roma coach Mourinho is preparing his match strategy to defeat the Sevilla team. The match is expected to be very competitive. It is impossible to predict which team will win. But in this match, I will support the Roma team if their important players don't miss the match due to injury.

The advantage is that Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings both got one day more time to practice. Especially Shubman Gill and others who are batting to highlight the performance and they have corrected the weakness in bowling. More new tips are discovered which are still hidden and on the day of the final match everyone will work to bring out the best in everyone. But I would like to say that if you want to win using intelligence then as a team captain I would say that Chennai captain Dhoni is the best as a captain.
Dhoni's captaincy cannot be overstated but another thing that will be added to Dhoni's captaincy in today's match is secrecy. But he kept it a secret which bowler he would use in the power play and which bowler he would use as a tool to get Shubman Gill out. But whether Deepak Chahar will be a tool for Shubman Gill for today's match will undoubtedly be understood by watching the game. However, Ravindra Jadeja's match today could be another turning point for Mr. Captain Dhoni.

Chennai must stop Shubman Gill if they want to win today. But apart from Shubman Gill, Gujarat has several batsmen who are suitable for the T20 format and capable of playing big innings. Wriddiman Saha, Sai Sudarsan, Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan and Dawid Miller are all specialists in the T20 format. And so the Chennai team will not get the expected results if they only worry about SHubman Gill. Chennai won the last match against Gujarat as Deepak Chahar, Jadeja, and Mahesh Theekshana bowled well. If every bowler can bowl responsibly in today's match as well, Chennai have a chance to win. The batsmen of both teams are in good form. The result of the match will depend on the performance of the bowlers.

Messi started his career in Barcelona and has played for Barcelona for a long time. Barcelona have won many trophies due to their prowess on the field. But towards the end of Lionel Messi's career, Barcelona released Lionel Messi due to financial problems. After letting go of Lionel Messi, they made some great transfers to bring in a number of star players. 
Lionel Messi is planning to leave PSG just as Barcelona are once again showing interest in signing Messi. Not only are Barcelona interested in Messi, but the Saudi League has also made a big offer for him. 
Messi is more likely to return to Barcelona even though various clubs have offered Messi. Messi might want to end his career at the club where he started his career.
Leo Messi has achieved his dreams by reaching his ultimate goals in football, definitely he will exits PSG this summer, we're waiting for the club he intends to make moves. The blaugrana are interested in getting Leo Messi back to Camp Nou; the fans and his teammates miss him deeply, and his absence is felt on the field. Lionel Messi is the acknowledged GOAT of football, outperforming his opponent, Cristiano Ronaldo, by a wide margin. Barcelona introduced the world to the miracle youngster, who is now in his prime. He's such a terrific player that young players look up to him as a football guru.

There are rumors that the Barcelona management is interested in bringing Messi back into the team. But is it believable? Messi is one of the best players in the history of Barcelona. And Barcelona management forced Messi to leave the team. And will Barcelona benefit from Messi? now he is almost 36. Messi's fitness is good enough so far. But it is unlikely that his fitness will be good in the future. Barcelona will want to take such a big risk? If Messi receives very low wages from Barcelona, then maybe Barcelona will add Messi to the team. But Messi don't do that.

I'm sure everyone now seems to believe and agree that the best service provided by resellers or sellers will make customers come back to your store. I believe this is one technique that every seller needs to implement if they want to have repeat customers. I can take one example; a clothing store will have loyal customers who will return to shop at the store if the seller is friendly and serves his customers well.

Good service will keep your chances good to generate stable turnover every month. There are several stores that can adopt promo or discount strategy, it really depends on the type of goods you sell. But of course the best service is the most important.
I am sure that first of all you need to provide high quality products if you are a manufacturer, in this case, if you have a wholesale. But if you are a retailer, then you absolutely need to maintain a high customer service and also ensure that the quality of the products is at a high level, because the best service will not help you if the customers will complain about poor quality. You can also think about increasing the range, and preferably high-margin products.

Product quality is not an issue for retailers because to sell, we need to sell popular products, have a variety of models, and most of the products will be the same in all stores. What customers care about is the competitive price and the services that the store provides. I agree with many of the comments here, customer service, as well as service attitude, will be the key to ensuring the store's revenue.

Another thing that I don't see people mention is that the store's location also plays a vital role in the business. We should have a cool space, close to crowded residential areas as well as places where people often pass by, thereby attracting customers with traditional advertising means that are also effective.

It was never going to be an easy win against CSK. Gujarat Titans will have a lot of work to do if they are to win against CSK. Victory will not be so easy. Gujarat Titans batsmen will not be able to bat against CSK as they have done against other teams as CSK will be captained by MSD. MSD will use the bowler at the time when it is necessary to use the bowler which will make it very challenging for the batsmen to bat against the CSK bowlers. The match between CSK and Gujarat Titans is going to be one of the best final matches. If Mahendra Singh Dhoni captains the final match, CSK is more likely to win.

Winning this match will not be easy for any team. Chennai and Gujarat are both very strong teams. Gujarat was performing brilliantly against Mumbai. So it is foolish to consider Gujarat as favourite. Because in the previous match, they lost against Chennai. And so in today's match the probability of both teams winning is 50-50%. I can't call any team favorite. Both Chennai and Gujarat batsmen are in good form. And so the role of bowlers will be very important in this match. The team whose bowlers' performance will be controlled will win the title of this year's IPL.

With or without the UEFA Champions League trophy, Pep Guardiola is already an iconic figure in the history books of Manchester City and he should duly receive his personal accolades for achieving all he's been able to achieve in the club.
Manchester City will be playing in their second champions league final in three years when the face Inter Milan in Istanbul and just like bookies many people are backing Pep Guardiola's City to beat Inter and lift the trophy that's eluded them since the formation of the club
All the trophies that Guardiola has won with Manchester City are not comparable to 1 Champions League Trophy. As everyone knows, so far Manchester City has always targeted the UCL trophy every season. Guardiola will certainly be remembered in club history as the first coach to present the UCL trophy for Manchester City. Opportunities that are already in front of the eyes will not be left just like that, Guardiola will do whatever it takes to make him the most successful coach in the history of Manchester City.
Manchester City has been favorites for the Champions League title for the last few seasons. But the Manchester City team failed to win the title due to small mistakes every season. However, this season Manchester City is stronger than in previous seasons. Hopefully, Manchester City will not disappoint their fans this season. This team is going to win the Champions League title for the first time. Even so, beating Inter Milan will not be easy at all. I am looking forward to seeing what strategy Guardiola will apply in this match.
Manchester City team has been very good for the past few seasons as they have always been among the best teams in the Champions League. But they do have some kind of mistake and hard luck during the semifinals and finals of the Champions League. I am so much believing that this season would be different because they must have learnt their lessons and this time around they are in better form than the past few sasons and especially they have gotten a very young, strong and determined striker who would be able to score the goals. It is not easy to have a threat like KDB and Haaland facing your defence for 90 mins without breaking it.

In the last two seasons, Manchester City were beaten in the semi-final and final. And in both seasons Manchester City missed out on the title due to tactical mistakes.

City won the first leg of the semi-final against Real Madrid last season. But the team could not qualify for the final because of the big defeat in the second leg. They haven't made the same mistake this season. This shows that Guardiola has learned from his previous mistakes. And this season he is more experienced. Also, his squad is stronger this season than any previous season.

I prefer moving abroad to have better life, but the fund necessary for all the needs isn't available at the moment. First of all it is must to complete all the debts and further make plans on moving to a new country. These days the process, language test eligibility are given much importance. Not everyone comes back successful after getting a job abroad. The good thing is people using the resources and the earnings in the right way and profiting out of it. In the past moving abroad doesn't involve big process, now the process involved itself huge and takes lot of time.
Me too, given that all over the world are experiencing inflation it is real harder to save money for me to migrate to other country even though this country I am living is not worth while to be live because of corruption and low salary for people like us. Living abroad is a major decision and will help anyone but then we should consider the living expenses as well because it will cost a lot too.

Apart from the countries with hundreds of percent inflation, the rest are not too bad for us to live and work in. Moving to developed countries to live will help you have a more stable life economically, but you will also face other problems. As some people have said above, when living in the US, you will encounter problems such as bombings, shootings, brutal murders, or racist actions…there are many things worth rethinking. There is no perfect place in the world, good and evil are always intertwined, so don't think that the country you live in is bad, but another country is a place worth living.
