New concern - With the discovery of new variants of Covid from the "Delta variant" to now "Omicron" which is another deadly variant forcing countries like Japan and Israel to now impose new travel restrictions, I'm beginning to wonder if this pandemic is ever going to end. As for the persons who have been vaccinated, are they completely free from the threat of Covid and whatever new variant that will emerge, or more vaccine jabs will be needed?

A draw for Chelsea but it feels like a loss to most supporters who were expecting them to bleach the Reds especially at home, on the other hand, a draw for MUFC, but very much celebrated by some supporters who see it as a pointer that the team is improving. Chelsea will have to do better in subsequent fixtures with their finishing in front of goal if they are to beat Liverpool and Manchester city to the title this season.
3324  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: November 28, 2021, 05:50:36 PM
... but i feel that many things will happen in the second half and Manchester will begin the offensive work since they have nothing to lose today
MUFC already leading with Sancho's first goal in the premier League and it is against a strong team like Chelsea, seems like the team is playing better without CR7 and Maguire in the game. Chelsea supporters will crucify Jorginho for such sloppy play, he has not shown experience on the ball like one who was nominated for the ballon d'or. I will not be surprised to see MUFC score more. Some changes has to be made by tuchel, this game needs Lukaku.

I hope the two teams can play in this weather condition. The pitch isnt normal at the moment let's hope the officials can get the snow out before the second half
Terrible playing conditions indeed, i could barely see the ball in the first half, great job to the Manchester city ground staff, clearing the snow from the field quickly. i now expect a better more aggressive playing half from West Ham, just as i expect the officials to change the ball to another colour to aid visibility.
3326  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you think Doctors lie? on: November 28, 2021, 02:49:58 PM
Although, I understand that it is not right for a doctor to smoke. Because they serve as role model to others.
Doctors are trained to save lives not to be role models, if a doctor is good at his job, his personal life should be of no concern to you, so far as he doesn't smoke while taking diagnosis, if you decide to make their personal live a concern of yours and you can't handle the fact they smoke, change your doctor.

 Back to the question of if doctor's can lie, my personal answer from experience is yes... I'v seen some doctors  add drugs to prescriptions for patients, drugs that they don't need all in a bid to extort more money from a patient.

PSG is not an exciting team to watch play football these days even with the A-list players in the squad, they really lack teamwork and there is no good connection between the players. Neymar is playing so terribly, Messi's performance is not top notch and mbappe is not efficient today. I don't know if to blame the the coach, because even with their extra man advantage, they are still not impressive. I'm not impressed by their performance.
3328  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The altcoin market has become scammer's playground on: November 28, 2021, 03:34:28 AM
Correct. A playground of investments and fun way to race against each other’s to see who makes the most money out there. It’s really sad to see this happening in the market like crypto currency’s which were supposed to be excellent hallmark for the Payment System around the globe. Bunch of idiots now making their safe heaven to earn extra by creating the tokens, publishing them over social networks and showing literal hopes other investors.

This dubious activity within the crypto space is one of the reasons why some governments still point reference to cryptocurrency as fraudulent, the rate at which some of these tokens are springing up is very alarming, how i wish there was a way to properly regulate things. The whole cryptocurrency thingy can become discouraging if one falls victim to the perpetrators and creators of such tokens.

Ridiculously high returns is usually a pointer to indicate that a certain investment  is dubious. OP has learnt an expensive lesson, truth is it could have cost a lot more than 50$. This should serve as another example to newbies and those aiming to get rich too quickly, there is no easy way to make money, and no investment that can yield you 200% increment in such short time except it is a shitcoin that you were lucky to invest in before a pump, otherwise i can't think of anything else.Be careful with your money and portfolio, always have the consciousness to think things and offers through thoroughly before involving yourself.

Liverpool is on fire this season, they completely demolished Southampton, with this performance today, their December fixtures is looking like a smooth sailing for them. I'm blown away by Alexander-Arnold assists tally this season for Liverpool, such an asset for the team. Also with Fabinho and thiago starting, the Liverpool team seems almost unstoppable.

I'm completely disappointed in Auba, he has been given way too many chances in front of goal only for him to throw it away always, ever since he signed a new contract with the club, he has been very disappointing finishing off passes to him. Kudos to our goalkeeper, Ramsdale for saving our ass with that world class save. Expecting goals in the second half, we have to win this.
3332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: November 27, 2021, 12:20:41 PM
The Arsenal-Newcastle United match is only a short time away.
Expecting Arsenal to win this game by two goals to One.i need to be happy this weekend, it's good to see Odegaard in and Lacazette out for start up, its a pointer to show that there is an intention to control play in the midfield area from Arteta. We need to bounce back from our encounter with Liverpool! fingers crossed, let's go gunners!
3333  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Beware of Scam Exchanges !! on: November 27, 2021, 06:22:02 AM
As a newbie, you shouldn't be faster than your shadow, don't become what is described in my locale as -"I too know", that is someone who thinks they know or can know everything on their own. Always ask people who know better you in crypto questions like "which exchange is best for me to start with?", be careful where you seek & take recommendations and download applications only from trusted app or playstore.
3334  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Which brand of face mask is good? on: November 27, 2021, 06:08:28 AM
The use of facemask is to protect others from you, and you from others mainly from tiny droplets that may carry the virus. IMHO, a disposable mask or the washable reusable mask can perform this function properly if used correctly.

Usage of these facemask is a challenge, be it the one you deem good facemask or not too good, you can observe that they are not properly used and worn the way the experts say they should be used and worn for many reasons.

Many are living their businesses to turn to crypto with the mind of joining the trend
If it's your business, I see no reason leaving your business that you started to face crypto when you can actually do both and be at an advantage, get money from business and invest in crypto.

But the truth remains crypto investment is more difficult compared to manual businesses
What truth please, this is not completely Correct OP, this is a wild generalisation. There are different kind of businesses worldwide, some easy, while others difficult to run/operate. The level of difficulty of a particular business also varies from person to person, that is a business difficult for you, may not be difficult to another. Some persons have even also built a business around crypto and even consider crypto investment a business, so i think the comparison is out of place.
3336  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is cryptocurrency making new millionaires every day? on: November 27, 2021, 01:57:04 AM
But you can make a good amount of money depending on how intelligently and how dedicatedly you trade or invest in crypto.

This is sure, in my country, many young people who never imagined themselves to be in the millionaire status are now there, cryptocurrency has made more youths millionaires in my country faster than even the career they studied in school. Apart from luck, intelligence and strategy, Information is also key in gaining the most from crypto. Being at the forefront of information guarantees you to make the best profits from crypto.

I'm yet to see a BATM, it will be something exciting that i look forward to. Would have loved to say that we will be seeing BATM's in my country, but i doubt that it will be soon, my government is still busy discouraging cryptocurrency adoption and use and clamping down on young people associated with cryptocurrency. Hopefully things will change in the near future.
3338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 26, 2021, 10:53:43 AM
I think Manchester should be able to provide an opportunity for Carrick to show his capacity as an interim coach before they find a permanent coach in the future.
Carrick was stepping up to the role already, dishing out a hot suit to match the status of the MUFC coach. we already saw a significant better play from Manchester United's last champions League game, he should have been given a little more time IMHO to the end of the season to proove himself worthy. I'm looking forward to MUFC's game this weekend with gladiator Chelsea, will love to see the tactics that Carrick will dish out against Chelsea, I am certain it will not be an easy game to win MUFC unlike when the team was still under Ole.

3339  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is marriage a kind of punishment? on: November 26, 2021, 05:36:21 AM
Marriage is not a kind of punishment,it just depends on the type of person you meet as either your husband or your wife.

Unfortunately we still have some old and very traditional thinkers who still see marriage as a rigid detail of responsibility, where a man works to get money and a woman handles all home responsibility. That is an old model of marriage. For me, in this dispensation, marriage is not so important, unless you really just want to. The primary purpose of marriage is for procreation and human companionship, not for any form of hard labour disguised as a responsibility. A modern marriage is one with an understanding amongst the pair. Before marriage ensure that you are getting married to someone who is not anchored to the old ways of thinking and not too rigid to change, that way marriage can be a smooth and good experience for both parties.
3340  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many bitcoins are needed to buy a house in your country? on: November 25, 2021, 11:39:02 PM
This is similar topics that loyceV dropped and we have to portray our views...
Similar true, but this more specific.
Houses are of different types, and prices depend on location both in a state and in a country. I'm a fan of of building a house as i have always expressed.
A property agent on my WhatsApp recently made a post about a decent modern two bedroom flat in a peaceful city in my country.


At the time of posting, 1btc which is the least whole number amount is equivalent to 24,272,600NGN in my local currency.


 You can see that he sent the asking price of the two bedroom property which is decent for a bachelor like me at this stage is just around 18million, which is very okay for the modern facilities the property boast of.



With 1 btc i can get a house, i don't think the cost of houses have or will reduce in my country now or in the future.
