I think the main issue here is the lack of financial education, even if you were to receive the highest level of education that your country can offer, there is almost no emphasis on financial literacy, people do not know how the economy works, they have no idea how much they pay on interests on their mortgage or their credit cards, they do not keep a budget, they have no idea of how much money they are saving on their retirement accounts and so on, if people knew how to do all of that then even if they gambled the amount will be so small that it will not be a problem for their finances.

Ok, I guess the Warriors will have to look for another big man still? Or will tend still contend with the small line up. But I do not think that it will be enough, currently we have big men, like Jokic, Embiid and even Giannis or AD, and with Draymond mostly playing them, it will be hard for the Warriors with the small line up that they have right now.

They don't have the advantage on the speed, their best player is above 30++, no more young legs like Jordan Poole. But maybe they see something in Dwight that will not be perfect fit. Maybe Howard really lost some steps as he himself is also on the twilight of his career.

So I guess that will be the strategy again, he will try to outbox and out punch Inoue. He will try to be the volume puncher here early and uses his boxing skills to try to keep Inoue at bay and not execute his strategy and then try to avoid a knockout, but it will be very hard to do against this version of Inoue.

Yes, most likely 1 or 2 fights and once his body matures again at 122 lbs, he might go for another belt at 126 lbs. But not sure if he will be feared though, I mean 126 lbs, there are lot of great champion that might give Inoue a hard time.

But for now, let's see how he will do his unification against Tapales, almost everyone here thinks that Tapales odds are very slim. So maybe we might be talking at how Inoue will win and what round will it end for Tapales.

There is always the opportunity for speculans to increase the price of basic commodities, especially rice, I think the government should read this too. Don't just make laws that benefit parties when the object being carried is always the community, especially in this case farmers. I'm the lightest one of the rice producers and is known for the title of rice barn and at the end of the story they have to import rice from other countries, it's sad to see.

There are always difficulties when we make a decision, but we will not know how difficult it will be when we do it. Often, what we think is difficult is not as difficult as we imagine, so we don't want to do it. It is indeed difficult to control ourselves, but if we don't try, we will never know how difficult it is. When we can win big, we must immediately stop gambling, and even though there are thoughts of continuing to win because we want a bigger win, we will not be tempted and prefer to stop gambling and enjoy our winnings. But when we prefer to continue gambling, we are likely to lose, and the loss will be bigger if we lose control.

Even with that much money, I would probably put most of it on bitcoin. Think about it, if bitcoin reaches from 25k levels to 250k levels (which is not impossible, just needs time) we are talking about 6 million dollars instead of 600k, and that's a huge amount of money.

This would be a useless risk if I didn't know about bitcoin, but I know it and I know that it will reach 250k levels, that will happen either in a few years after the halving, or maybe it will happen the next halving after this one, but I am sure that it will happen. Worst case worst, we will have 100k+ bitcoin which would turn that 600k into a few million dollars. So no matter how rich I get, bitcoin seems like the only and the best investment to me.

We will see then, OKC? I doubt that Giannis will go there unless they really make a good move in the playoffs or really improved the team. So far they are fairly young with no experience. I see Giannis looking for them that has the experience already and that's why the name of Warriors keeps popping up as they are the most sucessful team in this era and maybe their big 3 can still play in the next 2-3 years and that might coincide with their last run and it could be a good move by Giannis if they can join them during that run.

When a gambler who dares to take the risk of borrowing large amounts of money just to gamble is the beginning of his addiction and this will be very bad when a regular gambler tries to get a loan to gamble and becomes addicted because he loses all his borrowed money after that he tries to pursue it in any way possible while The pressure of having to pay back borrowed money is one of the causes of gambling addicts becoming crazier about stealing or robbing, even worse, borrowing again in large amounts to catch up on any losses.
This problem is the downfall of a gambling addict who is determined to fulfill his addiction and most addicts who have started to take this bad step will usually end their life and go far away and move to another city.

Borrowing money for things other than gambling is okay because our needs may increase, so we run out of money. But if we use the money for gambling, we shouldn't need to borrow because that could cause problems for us. After all, if we only use gambling as entertainment, we will not always gamble and only occasionally. And we won't budget our money too often for gambling, so it's better to use it to meet our living needs. And, indeed, we should only use the money we can afford to gamble so that we don't lose too much money and still have money for other things. Or it's better if we just save the money for emergency needs.

In context to the upcoming halving I find it to be the right time to hold than just getting into trading practice. Being into trading will give the choice of increasing the holding volume. However it have got th risk associated with it. Not everyone able to tackle if things happen in an unexpected way. For now the prime focus of each and everyone is about the halving scheduled for the upcoming year. With everything in mind we need to be good enough to keep things planned and execute it well. Market is moving in a stabilised manner which assure $30k to be reached in a slow manner.

This is what Damian Lillard said in his interview.

Well, I don't think the Golden State Warriors want him too. So much drama, unlike KD.
And GSW cannot afford another point guard in their roster because their salary cap is already filled by CP3 and Curry, if they ever take him, the luxury tax will be above the roof and I doubt the owner could afford that.
But again, I don't like that he is picking teams. Why is he forcing his way to Miami is a curious thing for me. They have Tyler Herro there as their guard and I don't think they will sacrifice their chess pieces just to get Damian and that may be the reason why this trade won't be completed. Trail Blazers know the value of a guard like Dame so they will want the best of offers as possible.

For now, he should stick with the Trail Blazers and stop doing this kind of shit show because he is just damaging his own reputation. IMO.

Both fighters have an equal opportunity in this bout, but if Inoue were to lose, it could have a significant impact on his future. He may find it challenging to continue moving up in the ranks, as his perceived strength might not hold up. The pressure on Inoue is quite high, with the world cheering for him, so winning this fight is crucial for him.

Government do have those warehouse in which they stock rice but the problem here is it's not enough to sustain and they needed to import from the other countries since there are some businesses which they brought the rice of the local farmers then sell it for their own benefit and we can't blame those farmers since they're lack of assistance from the government and aside from that the government doesn't provide or give them assistance to sustain their rice fields.

I don't even like seeing a wife who works too much if she already has children and they are still very young, because small children still have to be taken care of by a mother and father. But it's different when the child is older, because the urge to spend will also be greater so a family needs more income for a stable life. And women also have to work to be able to meet every need that may increase when they start having additional members in their family, but personally I also don't like women who basically expect all problems to be solved by their husbands.

Because a husband sometimes also has limitations in solving all the problems that arise in his life, and because of this he also needs the help of a wife or family to solve every problem because most problems in the household start with the small amount of income that a husband can get. So every problem that arises in life will feel lighter if we solve it together.

This happens in almost all developing countries whose governments are not ready to regulate the global changes that are occurring to provide relief on prices that the community can afford.
I think the role of the government is quite big and it also depends on whether poor countries or developed countries regulate everything. The increase in food prices cannot be separated from the global crisis which makes all prices increase and has an impact on food prices in every country.

We always love to see upset happen, just like when he beat Akhmadaliev, it was one of the biggest upset that we have. But as you have said, it's very different if you are going to face the monster Naoya Inoue.

He is very much in his prime years, very fast, strong, good chin and have the discipline that's why he became a unified champion in bantamweight and I cant' recall who is the last man who did it in that division. So Tapales really have a big plate in front of him, and as much as we like to see him win, let's admit it, he can't pull a Akhmadaliev here.

Yes, that's right, addicts who are beyond their limits will definitely do crazy things like that so they won't care about their future, I'm sure they just want to catch up on previous losses and continue trying to maintain their bad habits, maybe people like that will never conscious until they really lose everything they have including their wealth or become poor.

The madness of gambling addicts is always beyond the limits of what we think, sometimes there are those who are trying to recover from their addiction and there are also those who feel they don't care about their bad habit of being an addict, but most of them don't think about the long-term impact, the average gambling addict will stop in the end, whether it is stopping after ending his life or stopping and realizing when he has become poor and abandoned by those closest to him.

Agree on some point that in speaking of spending something for your wants isnt bad as long it would really be in moderation because people do mostly ending up on spending unrealistically or something that really exceeds out that particular limit on which it did come into a point that it is really that not ideal at all on having that kind of spending.

You wont really be getting or making any savings if you do have that kind of spending behavior and its true that regret do always come at last and not something you could encounter on the front.
This is why before you would be able to experience this then better cut it off before its too late. Regrets do always happen in the end and if you arent that mindful then sooner or later
you would really be having the taste of it.

Be sensible your spending and always prioritizing on whats needed and limit out your wants spending or something which it isnt really that important at all.
Life is like a marathon is on which the one who could really be able to sustain and survive for longer wins.

Yeah, he may not be perfect for that but there could be some changes for this play if they're up against Denver. But since it's not just that they're going to be focusing with them, I guess that there's a lot of usage that they can do with Dwight.

Anyway, just because him and the Warriors had a meeting, that still doesn't guarantee anything at all. So, while it's not yet finalized then we will just have to let it go and let  Warriors do their thing.

But nice analysis, mate.
