21  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2023 on: January 16, 2024, 05:20:18 PM
Todays Match
Burkina Faso Vs Mauritania
Tunisia Vs Namibia
Mali Vs South-Africa

The match between South Africa and Mali will catch more attention compared to other two. If I should have chance to watch any, I would definitely watch it because I believe it will be full of excitement considering how these two teams are tough playing with each other. Checking from the previous records of encounter between these teams, one can not be certain of which team will win the match. However, based on the each team recent performance, South Africa seems to have a higher chance but this is football and we can not be sure of anything until the final whistle.

Mali is one of the strongest teams in Africa especially in terms of defense. I know South Africa style of play is very aggressive and threatening but Mali defensive skills is top notch and can not be underrated. The game might either ended draw or south Africa might win with a slight margin.

I think the Super Eagles will make us start counting points if they'd qualify from the group stage. Next game would be against the host nation and I don't see that encounter going down that easy for the Eagles, the host wouldn't want to drop points in that group. With how have seen the Eagles play I don't see them topping that group that's if they continue with the way they played against Equatorial Guinea, some would say is just one game but 1 game and 3 point can cost a team to qualify from the group stage, so Ivory Coast are going to do anything possible to win that game against the Eagles.

Forget about topping the group now and let be hopeful we qualify from the group stage. Super eagle performance in the last match has nothing to write home about and it's embarrassing to the country known as the giant of Africa. The record will be too bad from not qualified to participate in the last world cup to being eliminated in the group stage of AFCON, a group that involves Guinea Bissau, Cote Divour and Equatorial Guinea.
When I see people talking about the Super Eagles as if they were expected to do more than they can, I just shake my head and talk of something else, because as I have known for long, the super Eagles ain't super about anything mostly when it concerns international competition and even with the least team possible.
I don't know why their pattern of play for decades can't be changed or the right players allowed to play.

They drew in the first leg, and if they do same or loose in the second, that's when they begin to put on their best display. Perhaps it's the fear of injury that makes them play this way, but the coach has got to do something about the midfielders. A creative one who can dribble and score from set pieces should be the best option and nothing else.

Creating a sports betting content will require a good platform or better still an app, depending on the size of content you intend to dish out.
It's a good initiative but have you checked to see that there aren't others with exact same idea?
You also have to be plain on what we hope to see different. I think a mental picture will get you there faster than you can imagine.
23  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: November 25, 2023, 04:40:00 PM
A lonely person is called so because they lack any form of companionship and it might be because they don't know how to make friends or people just avoid them for their personality traits.
In anyways, a lonely person who has had time to spend on their phone and therefore sees how possible to earn some winnings from gambling online will do so as often as possible because it is thrilling and no one would bother them.

Of course, the easiest people to get addicted to gambling are those who are the most lonely and have the means to engage in gambling at any moments call.
24  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 25, 2023, 04:33:31 PM
-snip-
This season's Premier League is starting to get exciting again after the Liverpool vs Manchester City match ended in a draw today, because directly this will be quite a good opportunity for Arsenal who still really want to aim for the top of the standings. Likewise, Tottenham and Aston Villa also have the opportunity to take a better place if they are able to win their 13th match this season. Because this will make the distance between the top of the standings and the other competitors in the top five of the standings even closer.
The match was fierce between Manchester City and Liverpool. Manchester City appeared to attack from the first half and they managed to lead 1-0 until the end of the first half. Liverpool, who played more defensively, did not find many chance because Manchester City defended and dominated the match well. They were unlucky in maintaining their lead while they were also unlucky in scoring additional goals. Obviously this has hurt them because there is a possibility that Arsenal could take first place if they managed to beat Brentford.

Moreover, Arsenal may not necessarily be able to beat Brentford who are playing at home. Of course Brentford is not better than Arsenal in terms of performance, but whatever the probability of Arsenal winning, we cannot be sure. Meanwhile, in another match, Newcastle really looks like they will destroy Chelsea's spirit. The temporary score was 3-1 in favor of Newcastle, two quick goals were created in the second half 1 minute apart.
The pressure on Chelsea is once more heavier for them to bear. I was at the onset thinking the absence of some key Newcastle players due to injury would make them the prey, but this isn't the case and R.Sterlin has had more responsible from his first equaling goal till now.
Newcastle is sure one of the best teams so far and they are showing why they should be one of the top teams in English football.

Success in any business endeavor will demand consistent effort for at least a 5years duration before concurring that it is successful or it is failing.
Your consistent effort is still being documented and I must say that the times will try you to know if you can remain as consistent as you have spoken about.
26  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Hardwork no longer incur success on: November 24, 2023, 02:14:03 PM
More than just hardwork, is the essence of the godfactor, luck.
Working hard may not be working smart, but with the ease in the application of A.i and bots, what one may be required to equip themselves with is the right knowledge and tech know how.
27  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Importance of learning a skill before gaining admission into the universIty on: November 23, 2023, 01:29:25 PM
It's a good advise to learn a skill, mostly one that has the potential of bringing in small profits before gaining admissions into the university or higher colleges of education.

These days the economy is not the least favourable to students because the need to get the best knowledge would require a steady purchase of handouts and additional materials to compensate for the little knowledge impacted from mere lectures.
Where it is most important is also as regards to the female child. They may become faced with sexual advances if they find it hard to afford fees and handouts, hence why the need to learn a skill not only bothers on a gender but to all genders and after schooling when one needs to settle and make a living independent of parents, such skill comes in handy too.
28  Economy / Economics / Re: What does being rich mean in your perspective? on: October 25, 2023, 01:52:27 PM
Being rich to me defines ones contentment and ability to be independent. It also has to do alot with ones financial prowess.
In some instances it could be used in context to refer to ones natural gift or talent and how sufficiently such a talent flows.

In all, being rich is more or less a mindset and it works for those who think they are rich. I believe am rich even though I don't have enough funds right now, but am hopeful and I know it always pays to do so, mostly with a good investment portfolio/management.

31  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Careful scammers and hackers using mail spoofing on: October 25, 2023, 01:32:58 PM
For ages now, although I wouldn't consider myself a computer wizard, to protect against such scam mails, there's the need to set up or activate the spam folder or spam section so as one doesn't open such mails unknowingly and fall victim to their cause.

I couldn't agree more with the fact that not replying such mails is the best way to ignore and silence the activities of the scammers and most importantly is to not click on ads or visit sites that don't have good email sources.
32  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Be Sure To Read A Wallet's Or Any Documentation Before Starting To Use on: October 25, 2023, 01:15:36 PM
Am still learning about how the wallet functions and how I can safely store BTC or any cryptocurrency within and not be at the mercy of hackers or scammers.

I always try to advice my friends about taking time to study the terms and conditions of joining a new app or program because majority of the problems encountered along the way is that of failing to adhere to the guiding rules or terms set in place.
This is indeed a very nice post and I read and understand better than I did before.
33  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Is Nigeria's movie industry only favouring the ladies? on: October 20, 2023, 08:02:55 PM
Una well don o. Abeg o, the ladies wey dey succeed, how many dey sick or dey in need of assistance as compared to the men?
Ladies these days dey more ambitious because Dem eyes don open to the fact say Dem don get some kind rights pass men all round. Afterall, they used to say, what a man can do, a woman can do better.
I understand the point our OP dey try make, but e be like the men for the industry need to wake up and try to live more healthy and make good investment while Dem they hot for the industry, because the part of the film industry or any company taking very good care of their staff dey give reasonably low attention to this aspect that na why all this things they always happen.
34  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Security Should Be Your First Target as a Newbie on: October 20, 2023, 07:53:41 PM
For me, I think the best and most important option should be to know what to secure before even thinking about the noteworthy security protocol to observe in order to keep safe what it is one has discovered.

For Bitcoin or any crypto currency, I have learnt so far how to avoid the hook of visiting phishing sites and ads meant to install spyware on ones device inorder to gain vital data. I still don't know the all of it, but my time here will help me learn more and lead me to one of the main reasons why I joined this forum in the first place, which is to learn about trading crypto and how to make the best profit from it .
35  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Experience is key, go for it. on: October 20, 2023, 07:43:52 PM
One funny quote about 'experience', is that one mat not live to tell the tale in the end, that's why it is important for everyone venturing into a new path such as trading cryptocurrency to know this, have peace from within, abide by the rule of trading, and try to learn from every situation or mishap encountered along the way.

I would go for the experience of having to try out something I have always wanted to, of which I see a potential of success to percentage greater than 50.
What am saying is that, the experience of actually putting into practice all I have learnt on trading crypto is worth more than the price of bitcoin or gold in the market now.
36  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What if the internet permanently shuts down on: October 18, 2023, 10:08:09 PM
Well, I don't think that would happen unless all the satellites in space and those at various positions in this earth stop transmitting simultaneously and then all servers stop working.
The disaster that will follow is nothing short of an apocalypse like as seen in many zombie movies of sort.

37  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigerian gov supports AI initiatives with $290K in grants on: October 17, 2023, 04:46:24 PM
As the government has decided to sponsor AI initiatives with such an amount of $290k in grant, they should put into consideration how to ensure the funds is used as approved for. That is, a monitoring team to ensure that the individual teams given the grant actually use the funds to fulfil the project demands.
My concern is if this initiative is to help the unemployment status or to further find ways to increase the statistics of the unemployed?

We are still waiting for the promised palliative however and can't wait to see how much is the current minimum wage at the end of day even as interest rates has increased by almost 0.5% to 18.5%.
38  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [Guide] Factors to consider before joining paid signature campaigns. on: October 17, 2023, 04:37:13 PM
The factors under consideration is something I am yet to understand, but I can get that I need to do more in terms of putting in a consistent and more regular effort in order to be even considered to join a signature campaign.

Moreso, I don't think morals has got to do with anything as regards the kind of signature campaign an individual decides to campaign for. Opportunities are created where such writing is demanded. I better put this well and say we create the kind of opportunities we get and get to accept. Else, why bother about growing in rank and don't do anything else to earn passively with the effort? It's basically meaningless.
39  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin started in 2009 on: October 17, 2023, 04:06:57 PM
I only got to develop my interest in Bitcoin since last year when I found myself in a neighborhood where the story of Bitcoin never leave their lips. That's what led me here to learn more and possibly invest and trade with it, as well as make payments for purchase online.

So far, it has been an eye opener for me because I have got to know why Bitcoin is different from other altcoins or shitcoins as is fondly called and am still trying to understand and observe how the halving as I have learnt will happen next year.
Currently, Bitcoin is about $30k and it's way higher than it was , but though it is still expected to rise more, it offers more stability during market volatilities and trends, hence why it is more secure to invest in than other shitcoins out there.

The joy of having merits to show that one's effort is paying off is what I often wish for myself since I have been here, but it is harder these days and when I see someone who has accomplished what I only wished I had done, I congratulate them and simply share in joy, hopefully I become infected with your bliss.
I am happy for your growth and can conclude that it was your consistent input and technic of presentation that earned you the merits you have. Kudos and more wins ahead!
