1721  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: March 31, 2023, 06:30:13 AM
Basically one major factor I have holding me back is capital and it is truly that we have to chase money or get forced to chase money at some stages of life and just as my dad will always tell me that money answereth all things and money is one of greatest elements that adds value to a human.
I believe there are several persons out there with great skills and talents but inadequate capital or finance to push or achieve their goals and desires and most times, the country one hails from plays a major role in how well one will easily grow financially.
In conclusion, capital and my country is one of the major reason or restrain to financial freedom.


Another solution to the challenge of limited capital is to look for financing alternatives, such as crowdfunding or peer-to-peer lending. I think this Method can offer a more accessible and affordable way to access funding, especially for those who may not qualify for a traditional bank loan.

Also, looking for ways to generate additional streams of income may be helpful, such as through freelancing, investing, or starting a side business. By diversifying one's sources of income, individuals can build greater financial security and potentially accelerate their path to financial freedom.

Thats the possibility, and there are still businessmen or like rich people who will fund you if you have a great idea for your business, but again, you should have a gold idea on how to run your business to be successful because no matter how you got your money for capital, you should be able to repay it back unless you have another plan to pay it back. Business is really the first choice of the people to become financially free because if your business is a success, you could retire early.

Those people who did this in a bank have got some balls to do it in a bank, lol. They are like trolling around to the banks and showing bitcoin, and at the same time, they are giving some sort of promotion to bitcoin and telling people who see it to learn bitcoin. I am shocked at how they did it: they got caught and punished. and also how they do this act like this needs some serious set up too.
1723  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you profitable? on: March 31, 2023, 04:31:05 AM
That is really the problem now because those influencers are getting paid to promote platforms, while others have businesses to promote like signal groups, etc. There are still a few influencers, but mostly what I've seen are pages or accounts on social media giving their analysis on certain coins, and it is up to you to decide what your bias is. I wouldn't say I am profitable, but there are really good months. I do profit, but there is also a loss.
1724  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most likely category of people to become Gambling addicts. on: March 31, 2023, 03:35:42 AM
In short word don introduce gambling to anyone thats it no matter who they are unless they discovered it on their own.  Though i am not that kind of person that us introducing gambling to other people but lets say those poor people are already aware of lottery ever since they are child because they knew that if they got lucky they could win big that is  ive seen a lot of people saying that if they just save the money that they buy from lottery ticket for sure they have already enough money now . Society is already aware gambling is let's just keep it in our selves and not promote casinos or other form of gambling to others
1725  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Investment: Good Debts vs Bad Debts on: March 31, 2023, 02:22:40 AM
Neither because depends on the preference because first it is a bad debt if your investment is not profitable meaning you are lossing money and you cant pay it back since that is only your main source of income. It would be a good debt if tou can still pay it even if you lose your investment. Overall it is still not good to get a loan just for investing money to something that it is not 100% that will get you profit but unless you are really risk taker
1726  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The best time to buy bitcoin. on: March 30, 2023, 04:52:23 PM
The opportunity to buy Bitcoin was in January 2023 when the price of Bitcoin moved to $15k.  But there is still time to invest in Bitcoin because there will always be opportunities to invest in Bitcoin as its price will increase massively.  If you want to invest, definitely invest in Bitcoin because the risk is very low.  The price of Bitcoin will increase in the future it is sure to be one hundred thousand dollars.

and there are a lot of people and investors scared and doubting at that stage as they are scared that it will drop more. Imagine if they bought at that time they already gained profit right now. But again, the past is the past, so right now, with the current price, would you still be making the same mistake you made last January, or would you want to buy now? Anytime is a good time; it is just a matter of how much money you have to buy bitcoin.
1727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot Tournaments - Ever Heard of it? on: March 30, 2023, 02:58:28 PM
This seems fun, and it sounds like you have a mindset for winning the jackpot as well as the tournament. I haven't heard this, but has this been done, like, is there like a recent tournament like this? Whether promotional or for another purpose, But still, it is about luck, and the one who wins the tournament is the luckiest of them all. Also it is fun that all of the participants will play at the specific time so all of the probability will be distributed among them all
1728  Economy / Economics / Re: Bank loans and securities. on: March 30, 2023, 12:11:00 PM
Banks can not loan you above their security measures. I went to bank to access a loan of $2,300 and they ask me what's my securities collateral to back up my loan reguest. And I said my school certs. The bank agent said such amount required housing, land or multi investment documents not just certification. So that's mean education do not have the real value but properties does.
If you want to get loan from bank then you have to give them your house deed or any valuable thing as collateral. You said education is worthless yes when you wanted to get loan from bank this certificate was worthless.  If this certificate is not given to get a job, if you pay money for the certificate, then you will not get a job. You have to show the certificate to get a job. So I think education has real value but you will get the value in the right place.

A certificate has value to us, and a certificate of ownership of a house or car is different as it has a value in terms of cost, meaning the bank can resell it if you can't pay your loan, unlike our certificates, which no one will purchase. Both are not the same and shouldn't be compared as they are different, but the other thing you can show to a bank is your certificate of employment and your payslip, meaning you are capable of paying it over time and they can approve your loan.
1729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chasing looses Vs Finding closure: Any difference? on: March 30, 2023, 09:55:53 AM
I don't know what closure he means, but it is very shallow, and I don't really understand if it is about closure because if you are chasing losses, it is about getting your money back, and there are no feelings involved with it, only emotions of greed. For me, no matter the reason, chasing losses can make you lose more, so it is better to prevent them, and for sure, those who will say any reason for chasing it is just an excuse for sure
1730  Economy / Economics / Re: Do your work. on: March 30, 2023, 08:45:49 AM
Not everyone will run a personal business and I beg to disagree that you are only making someone else richer without increasing your own wealth. You can earn more as you work as well. Everyone has a part to play in the smooth running of a business (both the emploer and the employee). If everyone runs a business who then would we employ to work on our businesses.
indeed not everyone can be a boss but at least we must have the intention and desire for something we can raise our standard of living from employees to company owners. but it is also important at this time that we really have to focus on the work that we are currently doing. work hard and be consistent. and while planning and raising capital to then build our own business.

every day the wheel of life always turns and I believe every day there will always be new rich people born and vice versa there will always be people who fall poor every day. this cycle continues. and we also have to think that we cannot as long as we are in a position as an employee. one day we must be able to change our condition for the better. well all oranf would want the same thing. but the results will probably always vary. sometimes people who work hard don't always meet success. but at least if you have tried then there will be no regrets in the future.
Bruh, why the hell we gotta be slaves to the system?! Why can't we just say "fuck it" and start our own thing?! I'm tired of working for the man and barely making ends meet. We gotta rise up and overthrow the capitalist pigs who are keeping us down! We gotta start our own businesses, work for ourselves, and stick it to the man! And hey, even if we fail, at least we can say we tried, right? So let's grab life by the balls, take a risk, and start our own damn thing! Who's with me?!
You can't be poor by being an employee as long as you get paid what you're worth but you can certainly go poor if you failed at running a successful business. A failed business can't put food in your table but your paycheck can feed you at the end of the month.
Note: you need to be getting paid for what you're worth but otherwise you're free to say "fuck it"

working as an employee must have a more stable income compared to a businessman, this depends on ourselves. I myself prefer to be an employee than a businessman, because I don't have to bother thinking about my finances.

We really have our own preferences, but imagine you are under stress in your current job and it affects you and your family, but it turns out you will get a promotion as well as just surviving on a daily basis. Though I respect your preference, do you prefer to be under stress when only your company's performance is improving but your financial state isn't? Whats best in business is that your stress for your business means if you are able to solve it, you can be fruitful and gain profit. I just saw a quote today that said it is better to be tired than bored and broke.
1731  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: March 30, 2023, 06:40:14 AM
My biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom is wasteful and easily tempted to buy anything that looks interesting, of course it's normal when we pass a restaurant with an interesting menu and lots of visitors to make us curious to try it, besides that I'm also too easy to change gadgets and sometimes it can be 3 times a year.

This seems to be solved by going to a psychologist to fix yourself, unlike finding money now with the pandemic, high inflation, and unemployment rates. People are struggling to find jobs or side hustles, suffering from low wages, and their salaries are not enough for them. Lucky for you, you have something to spend, unlike others who dream of going to a restaurant to eat. What I recommend to you is to form a habit such as exercising or doing anything that keeps you busy or has a low salary to prevent this from happening. lol
1732  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Going to Bitcoin events on: March 30, 2023, 05:40:13 AM
There have been bitcoin gatherings in the past month, I think in New York, which they say are big conventions for bitcoin. There are also booths there for coins. They will be having a conference and talking about the best use of bitcoin and criticizing our financial system. Basically it is just for fun, like we couldn't get free bitcoins there; it is just meeting new people, learning new things about bitcoin, and having fun, but again, those like us internet lurkers don't want to join it. I prefer watching it live than going to that place though.
1733  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happens when new altcoins encourage religious, political and other agendas? on: March 30, 2023, 04:40:33 AM
There should also be an agenda, like if we say that Muslims hold or use their coin for transactions like paying or buying something, and let's just say that all of them use it, then it would be good because the possibility of this is high which lets say to the point that it could be bitcoin, but again, not all Muslims will use it. Also, it is really pretty weird to have this, like how the heck cryptocurrency will take place in a religious setting and how this will affect our beliefs. If this were to happen in our religion, I wouldn't participate in it as there are for sure black agendas on this from which they can only benefit.
1734  Economy / Economics / Re: Is some certain lifestyle a waste of money and time ? on: March 30, 2023, 03:34:17 AM
If they are having fun and have finances that can manage the spendings then it's not waste of time. Suppressing desire is no good, however restriction is necessary. Such lifestyles can cause a hole in your pocket if not managed properly.

How much do you spend on such gatherings on average ? Please let me know.

I'm stay home person and have few friends. Usually under $20/month, I live in cheap country and in dry state but we have other beverages  Grin

$20 is already huge also here in our country for having a drink because we usually distribute the bills among of us to pay or pay on our own and not the same to other that only one will pay the bills that is why that $20 could make you very drunk. This kind of spending can clear your mind and relax coming from very stressful work . That spending is okay as long as you dont go broke after or affect your monthly budget
1735  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk and others urge AI pause, citing 'risks to society' on: March 30, 2023, 02:09:53 AM
Elon at first few years ago is not against by AI but they just warn us, now he is calling it now to stop he is really constantly changing his mind. Back to the topic ChatGPT ain't holding any Bitcoin or hidden from it because information are just stored on them and on what purpose on putting or owning it since it will not transact on it so for sure none.  AI is really fast development and at first I thought elon will also jump in to this because of his ambitious projects but not. Not sure if they would stop this as there are a lot of big companies now supporting openAI
1736  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What have you got rid of to accumulate Bitcoin on: March 29, 2023, 04:05:01 PM
Are there any assessments that you have right now? except land? like a car, motorcycle, or jewelry because land is always appreciating in value every year, meaning its value increases, and if you plan to buy again in the next few years, for sure it will be more expensive. Also, bitcoin is an investment. What will happen to you if you lose your investment? How will you purchase land? It is better to save or buy bitcoin with what money you have than sell it off. I would really say it was a bad move.
1737  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Evidence that I actually invested for my baby on: March 29, 2023, 01:21:21 PM
No need to create a new thread just to provide evidence you can reply on the thread that you've created or just edit it out. People are just curious about is it true or just made up story because a lot of people here are just creating a thread for the sake of merit and making a story to which all of here are just doubting to all of the threads created. Proof is proof but again for sure people will say that this kind of photo is easily edited or somewhat like that but again i am just on positive side whether its true or not continue your bitcoin journey and keep investing  Grin
1738  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Looking a partner on: March 29, 2023, 10:22:46 AM
You will be scammed 85% of the time when looking for a trading partner, even if he will show up in person on you, because that is a large money and all of the bad people are tempted to get it. Listen to what people say here and refrain from doing this instead; instead, do the dirty work, learn on your own as there are a lot of tutorials there, or pay a mentor or buy a paid course to learn trading. Just take your time because if you ever find a partner, for sure he will scam you and you'll end up broke, so to prevent it, just do it on your own.
1739  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk and the fall of Twitter on: March 29, 2023, 09:14:41 AM
We all make mistakes, but the one that Elon made was very expensive. I don't really know the motives of Elon in buying Twitter; for sure he has something to it and will sell it, but mostly what we can see right now is that Twitter is falling into the hands of Elon. At first, I thought it would generate more revenue for him due to the innovation he would be implementing, but it did not. 
1740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have anyone got more than 30,000 Dogecoin from Freedogeco.in on: March 29, 2023, 07:14:28 AM
Good old back memories. I visited the majority of the faucet sites. I just can't clearly remember how much I earn on this, but I always visit this website after school to make claims, and there are a couple of faucets that I am visiting. Though I don't regret selling it before because I really needed money, so no matter what the price is, I won't regret it because I benefited from it before, even though the price is low. Also, we should move on right now and try to invest in promising coins.
