Where can I get good quality materials and topic sources from?
This is just a forum, if nothing comes your mind, you can just continue to learn from other discussions and see what others are posting and you too can contribute. Topic should not be an issue, you do not necessarily have to create a topic, let it happen naturally if need be to create one.
Yeah man, i feel thats the best way to go about your topic creation problem. @op, the forum is not a competition ground for the most topic created, you are not competing with anyone and i feel the reasons for you not knowing what to post is because you have not read enough. Try doing more reading and maybe contributing in other people's thread and just join in the conversation and before you know it you have learnt alot more than trying to crack your brains into creating topics that would draw attentions. I personally believe that you cant offer what you don't know so i will advise you to just keep reading and the knowledge of writing will come naturally.

The moment Inter was supplied with red card, I knew they were doom already, Skriniar has left them with two defenders, that are not enough to protect them from the pressure of Empoli because from Empoli last few matches, they are balling hard and they also seems hungry to go harder in their standings. Only grace will save Inter because they can’t be playing attacking and be defending with the few men they have, they are outnumber and out pressure.
The match is almost over, no chance for Inter Milan to get a point in this situation. With the red card, they miss 1 player, and even worse it is one of their key players. It is too bad for Inter Milan that they missed a point at home, I don't know why Inter Milan has so bad luck today. Empoli players played surprisingly, they played aggressively and with confidence. Inter Milan players look very difficult to get good opportunities to score in this situation. I assume Inter Milan will miss a point today, they are defeated at home.


Inter Milan just cost me alot of cash. I never believed inter Milan are going to lose this match and have trusted them after the victory they had over ac milan and now they have dissapointed me. It was from the very beginning of the match when the line up came when the inter Milan coach benched the  two Striker that i knew this game will be difficult for inter milan, i knew something was wrong and to make things really worst inter were given red card in the first half meaning it will be only a miracle for them to win and now they have finally lost the game 0-1. Empoli totally outplayed inter Milan in the second half, having so many attempts to score a goal and they manage to utilize one and won the game.
2623  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC rise described as false bull on: January 23, 2023, 10:11:53 PM
Investors are just impatient with their invest and are eager to make profit that is why they will say bitcoin has hit the bull market,forgetting that they are not speculators and don't understand the cyclic movement of bitcoin. There are reasons for the recent rise in price which we should put into consideration

Relaxing and hodling for long will bring for benefits to investors who are patient and understands the market. Don't be deceive by the little pump in the price of bitcoin to 23k and feel its time to sell as you might regret your actions when the real bull market comes after bitcoin halving.
I think there is nothing like impatient here because the coins belongs to the actual person or investor so i believe he or she has the leverage to sell off whenever he dims fit. For me i think no ones truly understands the volatility of bitcoin and all these talks about fake bull market are just human speculations which is common especially when you have some funds invested in bitcoin. If you come to look at the whole thing,  i believe the major speculation on the crypto space are really done and said by major investors saying this words as a means of telling themselves that they can soon sell or not yet time. And again if i bought bitcoin in the price of 15k and sold now thats it 23k, i feel am the one who is going to bear the pain of selling now, when Another ATH is reached but no one actually knows when or how its going to happen. Its just like the coming of Christ  Grin it might be this year or next who knows.

But i feel or speculates that the facts about the bitcoin halving is what is going on now currently with bitcoin. I believe bitcoin is just in the phase of building momentum for the big bull run so everyone should just choose wise wisely what they have to do with their coins .

Fulham vs Tottenham
Tottenham are a physical team, but Fulham players are not looking to be bullied. Fulham have had good chances and are controlling the game. Tottenham have been slow and as usual are playing with dependence on the top players in their team but Fulham are playing more like a team. Fulham to win this game if they score more than two goals in this first half and it is not looking impossible because Fulham are playing better football at the moment (25 minutes into the game).
First half has ended and the both teams played to their satisfaction. But each were given Yellow Card  that is two yellow cards were given in the first half of the game. Harry Kane scored the first goal in the game in extra time of the first half of the game. So as it is now Fulham 0 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham Hotspur will win this match because they dominating they opponent.

Rruchi man  your prediction has fallen you at the die minutes of the game. Fulham will not win this because they could not scored because they lack tactics and their midfielders are not smart enough to score a goal. So hopefully Tottenham will still score another goal.
Even though Tottenham have manage to take the lead during the first half that doesn't mean that they have won the game because fulham are a really dangerous side and can hit back in the second half. But the first half has been really impressive from both teams especially in the first 20 minutes of play when fulham was looking very threatening in scoring first, but Tottenham got back into the game and Harry Kane added another goal to his seaaon tally. Still waiting to see the full outcome of the game, still alot of minutes to play.
2626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 23, 2023, 09:13:20 PM
Inter are having difficulties in the first half hour of the game against empoli, they are finding empoli defense tough to crack and they only had one goal chance so far which lautaro martinez missed, they need the three points today more than empoli does to take the second position temporarly and wait for milan to drop points tomorrow.
Inter got a red card after Skriniar received two yellow, the will play the 2nd half with 10 players but i still believe that they can win or at least score, i don't think the red card will affect them that much, the odds for Inter to score is @1.7 which is quite good but a lot of people avoid it because the red card scare them away.
Goal!!! Empoli has taken the lead. why would you say the red card won't affect them, i mean even before the red card was given to skriniar empoli were playing very well and looking dangerous and with a red card, it means inter Milan are currently 10 men playing against eleven which gives empoli the greater chance in winning this match. Inter milan will not be looking to play all out forward again because of this red card and i also think there starting lineup was not too good having the likes of dzeko and lukaku in the bench and this has affected them too.
2627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 22, 2023, 06:29:58 PM
This time Arsenal took the lead but Unnited scored the equalizer again within a few minutes. Now it is a total of 10 minutes and the score is 2-2. Are we going to get another winner? It looks like this game will end in a draw. With the audience in particular as the big winner in this competition. I also see that Haaland scored another hat-trick. He has already made a few of them this season, very clever when you just joined a new club. City also have very good players to run him. Newacstle United still dropped a lot of points after the winter break, a pity, but it was to be expected that they would fall back a bit between all that violence in the competition.
United have finally lost, after so many matches, although the match look like a draw but arsenal just found their way out of this fixture. I think these are the sign and symptoms of league winners. Arsenal are really thirsty for the league title and currently they are doing exceedingly well, i think the Manchester City fans would not be too happy with this result as they were looking forward to close the gap on arsenal abit. Wonderful and interesting match though the two teams played really well but arsenal really deserve the win
2628  Economy / Economics / Re: Can I take a loan to invest in bitcoin? on: January 22, 2023, 02:08:35 PM
My advice is the same with your advice. I don't like loans. I don't like borrowing money. I'm not comfortable knowing that I owe somebody a certain amount. But, who knows, if ever a time comes that I will have to borrow money, I might. However, it will never be for the sake of investment. It might be due to emergencies.  

But if somebody is to borrow money for the sake of investment, Bitcoin is a better choice especially in the middle of a bear season and if it is for long-term hodling.
Loans sometimes is necessary in the life of a man especially when the season or period you are facing is really tough, i would guess nobody likes to take loan and especially not for the purpose of an investment you are not certain about having profits. Sometimes a loan requires an additional interested for a specific period to pay back and you are expected not to violate the time limit given to you so if you now used this money for a crypto investments, even if it is bitcoin, who will know when or whether even if you will have a profit to pay back the loan. And if you use the borrow money for a long term investment in bitcoin during the bear season it will be better but who can loan you money for such long period of time.
2629  Economy / Speculation / Re: Did you sell off during the 21k price breach. on: January 21, 2023, 10:45:56 PM
Well I did begin to sell at 21k just a little bit. I think most people panic sell when others are talking about it. FUD start to kick in and we think we are being cautious by getting out. Personally, I don’t often follow the crowd and I tend to hold long but that’s because I try and put my money behind investments I truly believe in.

This includes bitcoin for example. I think if you really like an investment, you don’t get swept up by the fear because you trust your gut and you know you have a winner if you can just wait it out.
I'm not going to sell it for fear of missing the opportunity to sell it for a high price, but I have to sell it when I really need the money urgently after some other considerations. I don't think $21K is a high price to sell some or all of your bitcoins but if you really need it then you can sell it anytime as long as you understand and consider it well.

Holders are winners, but we don't have to be holders forever for any reason. We need money and we also need to enjoy life, so taking profits at the right time is the reason why you invest, but it's not the only one.
I totally agree with you on this, but with what I have seen is like everyone just says that are going to hodl tiil the next bull run. But i feel this must not be the same with everyone, as i sold some of mine today owing to the fact that, i was in dire need of cash and i sold a little to settle this issues. The  price today was really something to smile about as btc is slowly climbing upwards and now up 23k today but many still see this current uptrend as a trap and feel that bitcoin is going to fall back to 16k as the propose year for the speculated rise has not reach @2024 halving

The club and Nassr have been at the top of the discussion since the signing of Club Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.  All competitive games are held in Saudi Arabia with various clubs.  A few days ago, Saudi Arabian club and Nassr did not have such a storm of discussion, but Cristiano Ronaldo signed a contract with this club.  It has even been seen that there were few journalists coming to Nassr every week and now the massive journalist wedding has seen the full contribution of Cristiano Ronaldo to the club's press coverage.  However, the club will come forward in terms of the game because Ronaldo, as the world's best star, will try to teach everyone a good lesson after joining this club.  The club and Nassr players will also be updated in terms of the game.
That is correct and this means that Al Nassar has not made a bad deal by brining Ronaldo to Saudi
They have spent millions on Ronaldo and earned billions.
Arab know how to earn profit and how to turn things in their favour

C Ronaldo is a man loved so many people and he is an influencial.person when it comes to the game of football(soccer). Sadui Arabia have really made the correct decision in signing ronaldo. This Ronaldo deal will bring so many good deed to the Saudi Arabia league as many of football attention will be shifted the saudi league because of
ronaldo,as people are always in anticipation to watch the living legend. This world record singing of Ronaldo has exposed the saudi league to the world including my self
2631  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: The fuel crisis issue in Nigeria and what I found out. on: January 21, 2023, 10:05:43 PM
Conspicuously speaking I am yet to still believe that a country as big as Nigeria does not have a functional refinery that could be able to refine all crude oil. I wonder why taking it outside country to refine and then bring a buy products to her citizens. I think our country are really going backwards because as a country as larger as Nigeria should have built a functioning refinery to reduce excessive waste of products and resources .
And the most annoying part is that, is not as if the government are not seeing this nonsense that is going on in the country but they have choice to feed themselves and their family alone
. Nigeria, the propose giant of Africa, sometimes i wonder how it looks in the eyes of the politicians because if you are aware that your nation is an oil producing country, it will be only proper to take all these momey and make arrangements for a fully functional refinery that can refined our crude products.

2633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 21, 2023, 05:30:28 PM
Here's my prediction for today!

CRYSTAL PALACE vs NEWCASTLE

It is true that a match controlled by the visitors is expected, however, Crystal Palace is a team that plays offensive football and has enough arguments to endanger the defense of the visiting team. It is my belief that the most likely scenario for this match will be the existence of several goals.

Above 2,5 Goals

Let me know what do you think about this game!

I dont think that much goals will be scored in this game, newscatle is a team that dont concede much goals and with the current struggle for newscatle to finish fourth has seen them to very careful with their game. I think newscatle is just going to win by a goal to nil that is 0-1 in favour of newcastle. I have placed a bet on my account for them to win and i beleive there are going to deliver. I know crystal palace will be in a high spirit after having that late equalizer in their game between united but i think newscatle is going to go defensive and hit them through counter attack.
2634  Economy / Economics / Re: How is the cost of living in your country? on: January 20, 2023, 07:37:17 PM
The cost of living in my country is so high that we no longer complain about it anymore. We try to just survive. To keep our heads above water for the next 36days when we will take to the polls to vote out the bad leaders that have brought untold and unbearable hardship to the common man and woman while they take the wealth of the nation to abroad and stash it foreign bank accounts.
You have really spoke my mind because even if we complain about this high cost of things, we still see things get worse, worse and more worse so the best thing to do is to just do what humans are best known for,  which is the ability to adapt to all changes. The price of things in my country are gotten so worst that the average man now needs to tripple his hustle in other for one to survive. Well the opportunity to vote out this bad leaders in the country is the only hope we have for things to  go a positive way as the major problem in the country is seemingly due to the leaders and the heavy toll of corruption they have inplaced in the country.
2635  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: It's a shame people still falling for this on: January 20, 2023, 07:22:02 PM
Only greedy people fall for such tricks. Those aren't new tricks anyway. Why will anyone want to reap where they didn't sow? The first time I saw that in one of the numerous telegram groups I was subscribed to was in 2021. It didn't move me a bit even though it was my first experience with such. The reason being that I've a mindset that nothing is ever free, both online and off it. There's always a catch. I always want to find out what the catch is. I was proved right a few weeks after that when someone complained of how they were duped through that method. Don't expect a philanthropist in this industry. They don't exist.
True. Only those people who have high desires for money will eventually fall for this because even if they know it would be impossible, but they would still try out everything wishing they would be lucky enough. Wishing there’s always free and there are shortcuts for them to get rich, and that’s how they starting falling on scams. However, if they have rich mindset and would work first before they focus on greed, maybe there are chances that they will still succeed and get rich in the future.
I think even the new comers to the crypto world can be trick not only greedy people, sometimes your  curiousity can get the most of you and if you are careful enough before you know it you have fallen to these scams. But for the old and well exposed people in the crypto space, i think its only their greed of money that can lead them to finding out what is fully behind the huge money proposed in these scams, to see if they can actually claim it and get rich all of sudden.

It even show from the start of the season. Manchester City's aggressiveness looks increasingly difficult to stop, their agreement to bring in Erling Haland and several other new players has succeed in making Manchester City more aggressive and of course ambitious to defend their EPL title.
Manchester City's only concern in the EPL at the moment is Arsenal
I personally don't feel arsenal is a problem to manchester city because at some stage in this season i feel arsenal are going to backslide and Manchester City is going to overtake them like they have always done in their past battles for the title. Remember arsenal still have Manchester United to play this weekend and i feel they are going to drop a point or two in their tough games. Manchester City on the other hand are really hungry and are willing to destroy any team that comes their even if it's arsenal and for now,  no team in the epl can withstand Manchester City not even arsenal.
2638  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC bulls back? on: January 20, 2023, 02:30:47 PM
Even though this is a bull trap, we are seeing the price rise to $21k and on its way to $22k. And whether it will achieve today, tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow, our profits will increase. But some say that this time is a bull trap coming. And after this, the price will go down again. Whether it is a bull trap or a real uptick in bitcoin, we must remain vigilant and not let our guard down because anything can happen. It is also possible that now is the recovery phase for bitcoin before it jumps to the last ATH and creates a new ATH.
This price hike is actually win - win situation for some individuals that are ready to utilize it. Everyone keeps saying that the sudden rise in the price of bitcoin is a trap but I don't see it that way,  you are the one with the investment you can choose to collect the additional profit in your investment due to the price rise or you can just wait and hold till a major bull run is experienced which can eventually lead to ATH but no ones know when that's gonna happen, everyone is speculating its going to be 2024 and this sudden rise is the starting of recovery for bitcoin towards its expected and speculated bull run.

I myself have personal given some lessons to some persons in my area on what to do and what not to do when dealing with  random text or calls from unknown numbers. Just recently, i had to help convinced my friend on not actually sending money to a potential scammer promising him alot and a job offer but first he had to pay for reservations on spot in the company.  It took me some time to finally convinced him.

2640  Economy / Economics / Re: My investments ahead of the 2024 halving 100% Bitcoin on: January 19, 2023, 10:38:59 PM
Many people have different sentiment and different reasoning about their portfolio and investment. Many people go for altcoins. Sometimes they can be lucky and make x20 or above and sometimes they are unlucky and lose. If you are not ready for the drama, simply remain with bitcoin. Op if the 90% you said is in bitcoin is the 90% of all your money, you are so wrong. Don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
I certainly am not ready to take the chances with investing in any altcoin thats why am sticking and going with my bitcoin investments. The trending story that have going on with so many altcoin has given me an awareness that i can lose when investing in altcoin. I think investing in any coin depends on how you feel about the coins, i will certainly not put my money on something am not Ok with. And I Dont invest what I Dont have so i won't be affected by my investment. Many people even go as far as borrowing money to make an investment which i think is very wrong.
