For students it’s essential one to make the savings.Because after graduation you need some money for the business.Not all the people get job after the graduation,So life became very tough after graduation.Start with 10$ for savings,then increase the savings to 1k dollars.Then use that money in crypto trading to multiple the money and use that money for business.Because business will be the best for the youngsters for long run.

Strictly speaking, saving is something that students need to do during school time because it will be very useful after graduation. At that time not everyone will find a job and there will be a lot of expenses to pay when you graduate. Investment is not a priority, but saving is much better for students.
302  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: February 20, 2023, 01:54:29 PM
The biggest obstacle to financial freedom is being part of the FIAT financial system. The
system is designed to make it easy to become dependent, for example Mortgages and loans.
Once you avail of their products you become enslaved, 25 or 30 year mortgage, to be completed
when you retire, loans for items we cannot afford and/or dont need and which will need
updating with newer products with newer loans.


This is the funniest reason I've ever seen, if you think that's why so many people still achieve financial freedom out there without any decentralized system. Those who always blame others while the weakness comes from themselves, they will never succeed. I want to know, are you financially free with a decentralized system, or are you just daydreaming? I don't hope one day you will continue to blame bitcoin for not having financial freedom, LOL.
303  Economy / Economics / Re: They still think crypto is easy to manipulate? - CEO Crunchbase on: February 20, 2023, 01:50:00 PM
I agree that the cryptocurrency industry can be manipulated by stock market sharks.  Stock market sharks have vast experience in dealing with stocks, bonds, derivatives and other securities. 

At the end of 2017, one of the Wall Street speculators said that they (the stock market sharks) managed to rein in Bitcoin and it is now completely controlled.  It was about the introduction of tradable Bitcoin futures.  This financial system allowed Wall Street speculators to manipulate the price of Bitcoin. 

As for other cryptocurrencies (with a small capitalization), their price is even easier to manipulate.

Many people are still naive to think that bitcoin is decentralized so it cannot be manipulated, what happens in the market is due to supply and demand. Of all the financial markets, I believe bitcoin is the most manipulated and a place to launder the money of tycoons. That's why bitcoin could exist to this day, otherwise, the government would have eliminated it a long time ago.

 If you have any advice for my friend, please let me know. Thank you.
I would advice your friend to go to any  financial institution to take a long term payback loan or any friend who can lend him some money to start up a business to help him stand back on his feet. After he starts the business he can as well apply for job just to have another source of income. This was exactly what happend to me. When i lost my job as a manager in a logistics company which was my only source of income, i immediately took a loan and with the little savings i had to start up a business. And it really worked for me. I would advice your friend to do so too.

But what will assure you that the business will definitely succeed and generate profits, business is no different from investment, all of which contain risks. He should get a paying job rather than continue to borrow for business or investment. He should have a job first and then consider taking out a business loan, if his business makes a loss, he can also pay the debt with the income from the job.

Match against Manchester united and Leicester city was impressive. Manchester played well especially that second half was crazy with some accurate passes and great goals chances and I believe that is what make them scored more goals.
Leicester City was by no means a weak opponent. This group is very strong now. And they played very well in today's match too. But the performance of Manchester United players was exceptional. Also, their match strategy was very good. And because of the good match strategy, United's players were able to successfully counter every attack of Leicester.
Leicester City had two chances to go ahead in the match but the spectacular saves from the Manchester United goalkeeper denied them those opportunities. Leicester played good football but they were just unfortunate. Bruno Fernandes has proved that he is still a top class player. His extraordinary passes that led to the first and third goals are commendable. Marcus Rashford is undoubtedly one of the best the premiership. Manchester United should thank thier stars that he was not allowed to leave the club last season. He keeps scoring in every match and his brace today were classic.

The Manchester United team is going from strength to strength. Both their attack and defense are very strong now. And it has become very difficult for any team to beat United. Ten Hag managed to fix most of the weaknesses within the team. Manchester United is now only 3 points behind Manchester City. United's aim now is not to qualify for the Champions League. They will now play for the title.

Afghanistan vs UAE
Today Afghanistan vs UAE in T20 match. UAE scored 163 runs in 20 overs losing 6 wickets. Mohammad Asim scored 75 runs off 50 balls. Aravind scored 59 off 53 balls.
Afghanistan have so far collected 36 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 5 overs. Rahmatullah Gurbas got out after scoring 20 runs off 15 balls. Ibrahim Jodran scored 15 runs off 14 balls.
I think Afghanistan have more chances to win today.
It seems that Afghanistan team is going to lose in this match as well. They lost badly in the first match. I don't think the performance of Afghanistan's experienced players will be so bad against a team like UAE. At the end of 14 overs, Afghanistan collected only 102 runs. And Afghanistan lost 4 wickets. Afghanistan need 62 runs from 36 balls to win. And it is very difficult for them. Agnisthan will be defeated in this match as well.
Ibrahim Zadran 59* runs and Karim Janat 42* runs have played responsibly and took Afghanistan to victory. The partnership between the two have helped in winning the match and the series. If one of the wicket have been taken earlier, Afghanistan might've suffered. Now they're in a comfortable position. Just 13 runs required in 12 balls which is an easy target with 6 wickets remaining.

I thought Afghanistan would lose the match. And UAE will win the series. But the UAE was a bit unlucky. He can't win until the end. It was unexpected that Karim Janat would bat so well. He collected 56 runs off just 22 balls. And with the help of this one inning, the Afghanistan team won this match easily. They reached the target in 19.1 overs. However, I will be happy if UAE can win this series. It will be a big achievement for them.
307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: February 19, 2023, 05:24:25 PM
I hope that the defeat of Atalanta is the only surprise for today in Serie A. I want to believe that Juventus and Roma will win their matches, but for some reason the quotes for their victories are suspiciously generous: 1.68 for Juventus and 1.75 for Roma. Quite strange, especially for Roma which plays at home, even if they have not been very lucky in recent games.

It was unexpected that Atalanta would lose against a team like Lecce. If Atalanta were able to win this match, they would be able to move up to fourth place in the points table. They missed the opportunity. They were defeated only because of weak defense. Atalanta had a total of 20 shots in this match. Lecce on the other hand had only 4 shots. Atalanta's defenders could have scored points in this match if they had played well.

union berlin is too stupid . because they can overtake the bayern today and play 0-0 against schalke 04 . draw against the last . no one has tipped 0-0 .
all have counted on a victory of union berlin. yes yes ..so bayern munich will diueseses year again German champion .
the other teams want to be in reality but no German football champion . every year the same with the other teams .
i hope dortmund gets at least 3 points today and wins against hertha bsc berlin
Union berlin should have been able to take advantage of the moment, even though he could have gotten full points by beating schalke04 which is not a seeded club and as a bottom club, Union berlin should have been able to get full points and be able to shift Munich at the top of the standings, it turns out that it was not really put to good use and it's true, BTW about Dortmund now they are already 2 goals ahead  Wink

Union Berlin can't win against Schalke. The match is a draw. The match was very boring. Union Berlin's match strategy was bad in this match. So they can't score any goals in this match. The Berlin coach should change his match strategy. So unless Berlin's match strategy changes, they have no hope of seeing them at the top of the table. Berlin's overall performance against Schalke was poor.

311  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I've invested around 450 dollars into bitcoin so far and I am 16 years old on: February 19, 2023, 09:11:59 AM
Currently, I am a sophomore in high school. I learned about btc from my dad and btc blew my mind and I was hooked. I've been pretty much putting all that I can into it for a year and a half now. Are there any tips you guys give me? 2/3 of my bitcoin is in Stockpile and the other third is with my dad (I'm not sure how he's storing it). At this moment I own a total of 0.01798185 bitcoin Smiley

Maybe you come from a developed country because at 16 years old you can get 450$ is a huge amount. At your age, kids in my area are still dependent on their parents, and they have almost no savings. You are lucky to know bitcoin when you are 16 years old and if you can invest in it until you grow up, I believe you will be a billionaire in the future.
312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I asked - Which country is best suited to adopt Bitcoin in 2023? on: February 19, 2023, 09:08:21 AM

It's probably true that some Latin American countries would be quicker to adopt Bitcoin than westernized countries because of the stringent regulations, though. I would infer that westernized countries would be the first to "ban" Bitcoin if they ever got the chance.

Not because of strict regulation, because with their economic growth, they don't need bitcoins, adopt bitcoin is just a threat to their national currency. While Latin American countries are poor countries, with high inflation, and they have almost no solution to revive the economy, and bitcoin is a suitable option for them.
313  Economy / Economics / Re: Monthly or weekly pay? Fixed or percentage earning? what is your prefrence. on: February 19, 2023, 09:01:31 AM
There are two categories of people when it comes to the choice of when to receive payment for work. There is the category that prefers it be paid weekly so they can off set bills as they come so they do not become a burden, while there is the category that prefers it monthly so they can plan well for the month.

If employers put out the option before you to either to be paid weekly or monthly for your job, which will you prefer? Please give reasons asides the ones I have stated to support your answer.

I'll undoubtedly choose weekly pay and will do so a thousand times because I'm very comfortable with it. Having a weekly pay helps you minimize your wants and unnecessary spending because you know you'll be limited to a certain pay for that week when compared to receiving times 4 of that amount on a monthly basis. Weekly pay relieves the stress of having to accumulate to pay taxes or settle debts, so it's a better option for me than monthly pay.

Monthly salary or weekly salary makes no difference, what you are talking about is just your spending plan. If you adjust your spending plan monthly, it won't make any difference, as your salary won't change. I never thought of this because I always have a plan when I receive my monthly salary or my spending plan will change when the pay period changes.
If we do speak only about monthly or weekly salary then its true about having that spending plan would really be that relevant but if we do speak about fixed and commission based then it would really be all the difference.We do know that not all people would really be good on marketing on something and if you are really just depending or basing up on commissions then you would be finding yourself getting fucked up
if you dont have any sales thats why its never really be that the same if we do speak about sustainability.This is why lots of people would really be basing or preferring on sticking with
fixed salary rather than on commission based whether it would be monthly or weekly pay then there's no difference.

Base salary and commission-based pay are another matter. If it were me, I would choose the basic salary because I have a family, and I need a stable income to take care of my family. I think the commission based salary will suit young, unmarried people who can challenge to achieve bigger things.

Benzema is in an unfit condition, for Toni Kroos it is reported that he has lost weight and also has reduced muscle mass. Maybe that was the reason why the two players were not brought by Ancelotti in the match against Osasuna later. What is certain is that Real Madrid must win this match if they do not want to be further behind from Barcelona. For the UCL match against Liverpool I think Ancelotti has prepared everything so they can appear with the main squad later.
Benzema maybe prepared for the match against Liverpool, this man was given a rest to be in very good condition later, so the unfit news was actually only part of Ancelotti plans. Against Osasuna is also not too difficult so that Real Madrid will certainly get points at there, I think maybe a draw because Osasuna is quite tough at home, but Real Madrid will be lucky if Asensio is back in good performance to scored.

Real Madrid's main goal at the moment is to do well in the Champions League. Winning the La Liga title is very difficult for Madrid. Because Real Madrid is 8 points behind Barcelona. Now Ancelotti will definitely want to win the Champions League title. And Benzema is now fully fit. Madrid team is stronger when Benzema is with the squad. I think Real Madrid can win against Liverpool.

The much expected England Women vs India Women have begun. India Women have won the toss and chosen to bowl first. Thakur have opened the bowling for India Women. England innings is being opened by Dunkley and Wyatt. Once after the controversial match in which Goswami got retired, it is the first time India Women and England Women are meeting. Match seems to be more interesting as both the teams will fight hard to record their winning.

England is a very strong team in women's cricket. And it is very difficult for any team to beat England. England set a target of 152 runs and that was a good enough collection to win. The Indian team is not weak. While their batsmen are good enough, England's bowling line-up is also very strong. With a target of 152, it looks like England will win comfortably. After losing 3 wickets at the end of 16 overs, India collected only 105. 47 runs are needed from 24 balls to win.

The final result was quite impressive after seeing 2-2 after 90 minutes of the game!
Pulling 2 goals in the extra time was unexpected and Aston Villa failed to keep the one point they have the whole time. Congratulations for gunners for the victory and for maintaining 3 points gap between them and City
The result of this match was strange and also surprising for me, they (Arsenal) were very difficult to get their second goal after Philippe Coutinho scored in the first half, but the process was real, they slowly built attacks so they could score 3 goals apart from the fourth goal which I think is like a giveaway because there is no goalkeeper there, LOL. Overall, this match was a very exciting match to watch as the goals that occurred were all beautiful goals.

I haven't seen such an exciting match in recent times. But Arsenal definitely deserves to win this match. They played very well in this match. Arsenal conceded a goal in just 5 minutes. However, Saka's goal in the 16th minute leveled the match. However, at the end of the first half, Arsenal was trailing 2-1. But the second half was dominated by Arsenal players. But interestingly, Arsenal scored their third goal at 90+3 minutes and their fourth goal at 90+8 minutes.

Upamekano decided to level the teams' chances by removing himself in the 10th minute. I don't envy those who bet on a Bayern Munich win with odds of 1.4 or so. Strangely enough, the odds on a Bayern Munich win now are only 4. Although they will have to play with ten men for 80 minutes, and without Thomas Muller. Now Bayern Munich should hold out for 20 minutes, or better to the end of the half and not concede another goal to have at least a minimum chance of winning for Bayern Munich. If Borussia Mönchengladbach scores another goal, that's it, Bayern will not win for sure, a draw at most.
Bayern Munich's current match is going really well. The opposition managed to score a goal in 13 minutes. But Bayern Munich with 10 players managed to pay the goal in the 35th minute. However, as Bayern Munich are under pressure, they need to improve their defence.

Bayern Munich is playing in 3-1-4-2formation today. And the role of every defender in this formation is immense. After a Bayern Munich defender received a red card in just 8 minutes, they conceded a goal in just 5 minutes. At the end of the first half, the match was tied at 1-1. But Gladbach's performance is better than Bayern Munich's today. From the start, Bayern Munich's performance today is a bit slow. Munich looks set to drop points in this match.

It helps certain individuals especially those who has the money for investments. Some projects do also help people such as those which has paying airdrops, campaigns, and other tasks but that speaks for this industry in general not only Bitcoin. Bitcoin will only help the economy of a certain or particular country if transactions under this chain would be taxed 'coz if it will be few people who'd benefit from it I cannot see Bitcoin helping the economy of my country. This industry is neutral in my area wherein it is not prohibited but is also not supported or being promoted to people. Economy is different from wealth of people in a country, just to break the misconception.

Bitcoin only makes many individual economies better, but bitcoin cannot help the economy of a country. The impact of bitcoin on the economy at a macro level like the country or the world is nonexistent.
Bitcoin has also improved my economy as I have been lucky to get huge returns on bitcoin investment since 2017.
320  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do if bitcoin crash? on: February 18, 2023, 03:33:02 PM
If bitcoin crash today, what will be your fate? Poor or rich. Most people on the platform have submitted all their life savings to bitcoin investment. There was once a man in my area who sold his house to invest in a local platform called BARAZAR in 4 months missive the so-called BARAZAR was shoot down and now he does not have a cottage. So I ask again if bitcoin crashed today what will be your description rich or poor?

First of all, we can't really compare bitcoin to an unknown coin called BARAZAR. Although, I know there's still a chance that bitcoin will suddenly crash but the said chance is really slim as it is highly unlikely to happen especially this time that it has been known and been adopted by most countries in a worldwide scale (adopted by people, not government). But since you're asking if that happens, you won't be poor as long as you only invested some funds that you can afford to lose.

Even if it weren't as widely accepted and used as it is today, bitcoin would be very unlikely to die. Bitcoin's most difficult years were the early years when only a few people cared about it but it still couldn't die, so far more unlikely. I believe bitcoin will not collapse unless a better technology than bitcoin is born.
