there is a reason it is recommended that you keep your family and friends matters apart from your money matters, because if there is some disagreement or issue when it comes to the money not only you will be affected financially but your personal relationships will also suffer...
Money matter is always a delicate matter and can end relationships no matter how long it has been. Exposing financial opportunities  (investment opportunities) should not be mistaken for financial advice. When you expose someone to a financial opportunity, it is subject to the individual to further his research and decide for themselves, but what a financial advice may mean to some family and friends is- "don't worry about research, you can follow my word" and it is often taken seriously considering that they don't see you as someone that will tell them something bad.

While it is good to expose family and friends to financial opportunities, we should avoid giving unsolicited financial advice especially when you value your relationship with them. And when it is a solicited financial advice, be sure to spell out the risk involved and encourage them to carry out their research and not depend on your word alone before taking a step further.

The problem with this is that it is always sold with noble motives but ends up with a greater control of the population.
Another angle to this development is that it will eliminate the privacy that the danish people formerly enjoy while gambling, as the government will also be able to keep track of its citizens and monitor their gambling behaviour. Certainly it may result in some citizens not being eligible to hold some public positions and offices once their gambling behaviour is checked and seen to be out of control. For instance, an individual seeking any position regarding finance in any government establishment may not be considered or easily disqualified if his gambling record shows he has a disorder.

There will be no food crisis for me. Price of pasta, price of cooking oil, rice or meat will increase 20%? 30%?

That's all right. I don't care much. I can handle it, just like most people in developed countries. We don't spend much on food, increasing that budget by a third is perfectly fine.
You don't seem to care much now because it hasn't started, what if the situation turns out to be more severe than you can predict it to be, and the fact that you have the finance to accommodate an increment doesn't mean anything because those commodities are no longer available to you even with your purchasing power due to scarcity?

In all, worse case scenario for the people in africa, many can easily turn to subsistence agriculture in a bid to feed themselves and immediate family, this easy adaptation may not be possible for you.

Don't think your situation better because you feel you can accommodate it, if a severe food crisis results, every one will feel the effect.

I heard Klopp is targeting Nkunku to replace Sadio Mane, so I don’t expect a big loss.
Nkunku has many premier clubs interested in him, not just Liverpool...Both Chelsea and Manchester United are also very much interested in him, his current club RB Leipzig do not want him to leave but money can change their mind. As a replacement for Mane should he leave, Liverpool also have Darwin Núñez  from Benfica on their radar and may soon initiate a move to get his signature for the club.

They will be looking to secure a suitable replacement for Mane before letting him go. In all, i think we can trust whoever klopp decides as most suitable, he has shown to make really good picks for his team, just like Luis diaz and Jota.
2665  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Exchanges that offer loan options on: May 31, 2022, 07:54:29 AM
Are there more exchanges that offer this kind of options, and if so, are they as safe as poloniex, and do they offer better % on average, etc?
No offense OP, but i think some information that we seek can turn out to create problems for us, and is this is one of such...Avoid loans as much as you can especially in trading. You shouldn't even be trying to find out more exchanges that offer loans as having this information at the back of your mind can one day become an option for you when you need money to trade with.

We all know how trading is risky even for professionals, trade with your own money that you can loose, avoid taking loans to trade with, this is my advice for those considering this loan thing.

I don't think all Liverpool fans are as happy as you say, they are sorry their team failed to win the Champions League at this high point of the season. It doesn't make sense why the fans should be proud when his team only managed to finish second when they had the chance, that's just not true.
There's nothing to be happy about IMO, after Manchester city beat Liverpool to the title in the Premier League, most of their supporters saw the UCL to be what will give them consolation but they lost out on that as well, next season is another time to give both the EPL  and UCL another shot and the team has to start preparing for it.

Mohammed Salah has been a player who has performed well with Liverpool this season, Salah is the Top Scorer in the domestic league this season and Mohammed Salah also received the award as the PFA Premier League Fans Player of the Year.
It will not be proper to only give recognition to Salah for his teams good season, Other of his teammates like Sadio Mane were both instrumental to the teams success and his own success.

-Experience - To succeed in this space, you definitely need experience...
It is very correct that experience is needed in this space to do well, but how about those who just joined, is no experience enough for them to get discouraged after reading something like this?

We should also be able to point out that though personal experience may sometimes give the best lessons, it is more advicable if you can learn from the experience of others in this field if you have none rather than waiting and only wanting to learn from your own experience, you may never recover.

This statement should go the other way, this country is for us and not for them, prayer is good, but prayer alone will change nothing brother, we sef for Nigeria dun too pray! If we can have one voice and back one candidate that the youths see is capable of helping, we gats do our part and look pass only PDP and APC candidate wey dem bring, vote for individual and not party... we actually have a chance of fixing this country and forcing this greedy politicians to an early retirement. God is not a magician, the country nor go automatically dey better because say you dey pray, on your own part...you have to work for it.

Real Madrid's luck was that Thibaut Courtois defended his goal very well,
Real Madrid have their goalie Thibaut Courtois to thank in this final, he made many important stops for Real Madrid and definitely deserves to be recognised as the Man of the Match. Real Madrid have really had a good run in this competition, they have not played the best football but they somehow always manage to get the job done. Real Madrid took good advantage of their chances, not so many attempts but playing more confidently in this second half has earned them the win.

Congratulations Real Madrid and Karim Benzema who most definitely is the most eligible for the Ballon d'or.
2670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Final! on: May 28, 2022, 08:38:09 PM
Yeah, Liverpool had their moments but none of the shots found the net.
Benzema was able to find the net but his goal ruled out after a very long VAR check which many will argue, i guess the officials had to get it correctly and they have as an official has explained that since the ball was touched by a Real Madrid player which was deflected by fabinho's thigh, he did not intentionally play the ball Benzema's way, and the last intentional touch was off a madrid player, hence makes it offside.

Vini Jr has been held well in the first half, likewise Luis Diaz on the opposite side. No substitutions yet,  but surely we will see in the second half and it may just bring the goals.
2671  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Final! on: May 28, 2022, 07:02:51 PM
Liverpool vs Madrid match is only a matter of minutes now.
We've waited for this game for a long time, finally at the end we will get to see the winner of this season UCL. There is a slight delay to kick off due to the late arrival of fans... There's a lot of person's both in and outside the stadium, the French police will definitely have to do a great job with security and crowd control.  

There will definitely be a lot of pressure on both teams, any of both teams that get the first goal will definitely have an advantage.

2673  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Monkeypox, are you vaccinated ? on: May 27, 2022, 02:47:10 PM
The monkeypox headlines are just to drive clicks. Media is quite shameless that they will terrify the public with a new virus to as long as it keeps them engaged.
Many persons are very unconcerned about any news of a new outbreak;

 Some people are yet to recover from the economic hardship COVID forced on them so do not care much about living, life is already hell for them.

Also because many have lost trust in the media as they now have little autonomy from government and the news they give can easily be manipulated/influenced by the government as they wish, so sometimes even countries were there are no outbreaks, or where there are very few cases... Corrupt government officials can capitalize on the situation to embezzle public funds.

At least Liverpool has tried to keep Mane but the one who will decide will be Mane himself.
I think Mane just wants to play in a new club and maybe another league, he has been in Liverpool for six years since signing from Southampton. A new challenge may be good for his career. Majority of persons think the most likely club for him to play for next is Bayern, but i think Real Madrid may also be interested should he announce his final decision after the UCL final especially since mbappe is no longer joining them.
2675  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Importance Of early Cryptocurrency Education for Children(HAPPY CHILDREN DAY) on: May 27, 2022, 11:35:23 AM
it's good that you're going to teach finance, but you should probably heavily focus on finance and investing first, before going for cryptocurrencies. Really, crypto can wait —
I agree, the focus should first be on exposing children to the various aspects and ways of finance and investment before the introduction to crypto. Crypto knowledge especially in our present time is important, but not the only thing a child should know as regards finances and investing especially since there is a very long life ahead of them within which some other digital advancement may spring up. A child should be equipped and intimated with enough financial knowledge to be able to navigate and adapt to any financial situation they may face regardless of if the existence of crypto remains or not.

2678  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I accept Bitcoin payments without sounding like a scammer? on: May 26, 2022, 06:56:22 PM
so far all of my customers have chosen PayPal over crypto.
Every time that I've offered Bitcoin as the only payment method available I've ended up losing the customer.
Is this normal or am I doing it wrong?
It is normal OP in my opinion, don't get discouraged or begin to overthink the situation...as you mentioned that you just started, you haven't met all your customers yet, you are yet to met those who their preferred mode of payment is crypto.

There are some other reasons why the customers you've had currently choose PayPal option for payment, and not necessarily because they perceive you as a scammer;
- It is possible that they don't have crypto or are not conversant using crypto as a mode of payment. Many still view cryptocurrency as something strictly for investment (an investment scheme).

Yes, he is a really special person...
Also special in the way he has made Roma come alive and how the attention of every football lover will turn to Roma in the coming season. As a result pf this their new found confidence, I personally see Roma performing better next season and most likely Jose contending strongly to be champions of Italy. Jose wants to stay at the club, he is happy there...I'm excited to see how far they can go with him as their manager. In two seasons possibly, with some selected additions to the team Roma can be contenders for the UCL as well.
2680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Final! on: May 25, 2022, 09:22:21 PM
All Roma needed was that just single goal as far as Mourinho is concerned and they'll have to play the rest of the game out, and it did work out for them.
Roma defended really well in the game especially in the second half, from the start to the finish. Feyenoord played very well as expected, really came at them in attack but the Roma defence soaked up pressure well and their Goalkeeper with very good reflex was superb, making some really important saves. Another great achievement for José and a new era for ROMA who now have something to celebrate after a very long wait. Congratulations Roma.
