461  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bull run best time to promote Bitcoin related affiliate programs? on: November 15, 2023, 11:58:19 PM
I feel that when Bitcoin is reaching peak prices, all news sites cover the news. As a result, lot of new users come to Bitcoin. As a result, this can be a good time to invest in promotion of crypto affiliate programs. The chances for conversions will be higher as Bitcoin popularity will already be in mind of people.
That's true, hype is alive again for Bitcoin and many people will look at the prices and so if you promote an affiliate just make sure it's not a scam.
They always come back when the market is healthy and alive and all they think is money is everywhere again for Bitcoin. So, if for the mindset of promoting your affiliate, it's true that it's an advantage if you do it during the bull run.

I have learned consistency is the key. So if I am not sticking with my plan and I am inconsistent, how much damage will it be to me if I am like that?
That's why I am always with my plan and I'll wait if it succeeds before taking any actions and will go to plan B. But if nothing yet is happening, I'll be consistent to what I've planned.
And that is like holding until I can without any panic selling.

Holding Bitcoin is the best approach if an investor wants the minimum risk.  And with plans, consistency is ok but we should always have an alternative option if the plan isn't working as expected.  I agree that we must have a secondary plan and an alternative of it just in case the primary and secondary will not work in the given situation.

If there is nothing wrong with the plan, it is best to be consistent but once flaw is observed, I think it is much better to adjust to be able to fix that flaws seen on the plan.  This is what we called adaption, if we are able to adapt and do necessary things that the scenario needed, we will find our selves successful in every investment venture we made.
I agree with that. Holding Bitcoin has been the best plan to stick to and people don't realize that until they miss the whole point of holding.
They're jealous with people bragging their profits with the altcoins that they have become lucky and then still, they don't get the whole thing out of it.
That's why they have to modify their plans because they don't stick to the plan and think that other's plan are way better than theirs.

Both are risky as well as profitable but these all suggestions depends on experience. If someone find forex as a profitable then he will prefer forex and those who take benefits from crypto will suggest it for others. If we talk about risk and get afraid of it then we will not move forward to achieve our goals because nothing is without risk here.
Both markets are profitable if you are good enough. But that doesn't mean that you can always make money from them. The risk remains and the volatility is staying for each markets.
Whichever you prefer and you know more the movements of the market, stay there. Take a mastery on yourself from each of those markets for you to have the momentum and take that moment as opportunity for you to keep on earning.
465  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the right age for financial stability? on: November 13, 2023, 11:45:00 PM
The financial stability of anybody can come at any stage, people cannot save when they don't have any source of income, young people are always financially unstable because at that stage they hardly get jobs to keep them stable and most times because of the youthful exuberance some of them are indulge in, they find financial stability or savings as something that is not in their immediate needs.
At the age of 18, it is expected that that person is still studying, that is to say the person is a student, and  we all know the financial burden that always comes up with being a student, so it's always not easy to start saving at that age, because you don't have a steady income.
Financial stability can come only when you have and income, and you can save and make financial decisions based on income.
And there are also younger folks that have more money than the typical mature worker because of their strategies and inventions.
Although this is rare thing to be seen but that's happening in some parts of the world that there are kids or teens that are able to make more than what we've earned in our entire lifetime. Well, they're gifted and they're using it wisely and that only means you're right that financial stability comes to any age of our lives.

Your emphasis on starting with buy-and-hold strategies for beginners is wise, as it allows them to learn without the intensity of active trading.
That is wise and the best choice for the beginners so that there will be no pressure on how you're going to start on this market.
When you buy and just hold for the moment, you'll get to see the picture of the entire market as you start.
By having that initiative, you'll get to have the encourage or discouragement whether you want to pursue trading or not.
467  Economy / Economics / Re: How Much Does Food Cost in Your Country? on: November 12, 2023, 11:58:40 PM
The only thing is that you spend less every month. While I'm on the internet, it's already 32 dollars; for food, it's around 65 dollars; since I have a motorcycle, I spend about 25 dollars on gasoline; and for unexpected costs, it's around 60 dollars; and house rent is 60 dollars per month.

My other billings, such as electricity and water bills, and liability assets that I pay, such as real estate and wages to housekeepers per buwab, are not included.
And with the increasing price of gasoline, that makes it more interesting when the swaying of price in the world crude oil because you don't know when they will increase again or decrease.
$65 for food per month is actually a tight budget if you ask me and are you single and all you need to budget is for yourself?
Because if you have a family, this could be a budget that you can't eat everything you want.

$65k per month? Not enough here in the Philippines, the cost of living here in very high as well but then the daily minimum wage is very low. And as Asian countries, our staple food is rice, and now that it also sky rocketed, even onions here was once like more than the price of gasoline because of some malpractice and corruption as there is also a cartel.

So very hard to have that kind of budget here, it's just 2 days budget for my family for food alone. Prices of basic commodities as well is very high like internet, house rent (although I don't pay rent), water and electricity. So everything is f**k up now. If you just rely on your regular 9-5 jobs and doesn't hassle, I don't think that you can survived here or in any other parts of the globe wherein the price of the basic necessities is going up.
Just only $65 mate, you excess that with "k". Smiley
I think in every Asian country, there's been a solid inflation rate that many can't keep up anymore and that's why every type of survival technique is being done.
That's true about relying on a 9-5 job, it's insufficient these times and that's why we see people having a lot of side hustles, not just 1 but more than 2 for the hardworking folks out there.
But I just want to know from those people in Thailand, because it seems that it's one of the cheapest country that's always been said if the locals will agree to that.

They just became in love and they don't realize how tough life it is when they're not yet seeing the reality of life.
That's fine because they will learn it all along their married life and that's going to take them a few months for the reality to sink in for them.
And from there, they'll have the thinking on how to deal with it, many of them are creative and have good plans just like the success stories that I have read.
It all really depends on what the husband can do because it's clear that women face some limitations that prevent them from advancing as much as men do.

Women can have menstrual periods, get pregnant, typically have less physical strength than men, and take care of babies after giving birth. This shows that for a husband to truly succeed in entrepreneurship after marriage, he should possess considerable strength in terms of mindset, physical energy, and mental resilience. Meanwhile, the wife can act as a faithful supporter and a source of encouragement.

It seems like it would be better if family members support each other and work together.
Yeah, those natural things that happens to them and that's hard to continue when they're dealing with them. But what I like with them is on how quick to adjust they are.
And that is because with things and such, even with those circumstances, they're able to make themselves comfortable and keep going on with what they have been working on.

I think with every war that startles, there will always be these authors that will romanticize the situation and will suck money out of the content.
Making it always look like Bitcoin has been involved with all of these. Although we know that it can be used to any purpose but these authors and reporters will always find a headline to make it look like as is all the time.

Forget the pressure and forget about controlling the things that you have no control over it.
That's really going to give you pressure if you keep on thinking about it.
So, if you keep on thinking things about what if that you have no control, you're just like hitting yourself with your own rock.
472  Economy / Economics / Re: Being rich = not looking at price tag on: November 11, 2023, 10:56:41 AM
IMHO, those that have that attitude when shopping are the middle class. Most of the rich people are acting well and they always check out the price tag because they don't want to be a crazy spender.

Rich people are always looking at the price tag, you know why? Because that's how they got rich, by valuing they money they earn and spending it to things that has the right value or has value to them. Rich people were not reckless in spending, again that's how they become rich.
The reality behind the people who don't look at the price tag is that, they aren't really rich, they are pretending to be and they tend to be showboating all the time.
Rich people knew how to spend wisely and earn even more wiser, so not looking at the price tag does not make any sense.
That is true, I agree that they are wise in money and if they ever spend on huge amounts, they would always think of many times before doing the purchase.
473  Economy / Economics / Re: Entrepreneurship and women on: November 11, 2023, 08:05:44 AM
I don't think they are ready to build a family. It was just a result of how early they are open into relationship and that resulted to early pregnancy and marriage.
I tend to think that when some young women intend to marry at a young age, it's because they may feel they have no more career prospects and are leaning on their new husband to provide for the family. We all know that pregnant mothers have physical limitations, making it hard for them to engage in strenuous work. This means that the pregnant woman's job will be simplified, and the husband will have to work harder to earn a substantial income to support both.

Indeed, there are women with a very liberal lifestyle who end up getting pregnant first and then decide to marry their partner. That falls into the darker side of social circles... there are many reasons why women choose to marry at a young age, including family responsibilities, parental wishes, religious beliefs, the attraction of wealthy men, and many more.
They just became in love and they don't realize how tough life it is when they're not yet seeing the reality of life.

474  Economy / Economics / Re: Entrepreneurship and women on: November 10, 2023, 11:06:26 PM
But most of the women who marry are under the age of 18 so they no longer pursue a career and lose their dreams. This is like what is happening right now in my country. because this is the reason why many entrepreneurs are still filled by men.
For some reasons, they lose the urge to continue with their studies and that's because of the responsibility of being a married woman at a younger age.
But I've seen with the same situations that have never gave up and still pursued their dreams and achieved their goals. It's not just all about studies but also by being a working person or establishing their business which we usually see that there's women empowerment in that area.
For women who choose to marry at a young age, they are definitely ready to build their family, so they prefer to marry at a young age, but in my opinion, in terms of pursuing their dreams, they certainly have to get support from their husbands and if given permission by their husbands, they definitely they will be able to divide their time for their family and also for the dreams they want to achieve and I am sure they can do it if they are disciplined in dividing the time they have.
I don't think they are ready to build a family. It was just a result of how early they are open into relationship and that resulted to early pregnancy and marriage.
They have no option but to just continue it together with their chosen partner or else they'll be living alone with their baby and will grow with a single mom.
But we see how women empowering themselves through various skills and businesses that they are succeeding.

@OP congratulations to your wedding. You surely are a proud Bitcoiner that has paid all of your expenses through what you've got from Bitcoin.
It's a rare occasion and you have made it more memorable per se because of how you did it all. Best wishes and be well with your married life and hope you multiply with cute kids.  Smiley

There certainly is a huge pressure on him because he's the #1 pick on this class and the Spurs have got all of those picks that he's following with.
He's being groomed and taken care properly by the team and that's why people's expectation on him is high.
But yes, give him a break as he's still a rookie but look at how he's like the main guy on the team now while he's still on his very first year on his team.

Yes, He's the main alpha even in his rookie year, the expectation is too high as fans and viewers wanted more from this young guy, unlike
with other rookies being number 1 really being eyed by both criticism and complements.
I think he just set it as well because of what he's said that he's going to beat a lot of the superstars now and he'll dominate the league.

He can't please everyone but with how he's showing his game seems that there's really something special about him, aside from his height which really
gives him that extra edge, but his skills and knowledge about the game that are really going to be interesting if he will keep on improving it all.
Yes, he can't please everyone and he's no doubt that showing how good he is on his very first rookie year. He's setting some records that the other superstars did from their rookie years and he even managed to surpass most of them.

To many things to work on and since he is on the right team and right coach for sure he can develop all of those if he show some willingness to learn more from great people who trained him.

He's just a rookie, and he's likely to win the Rookie of the Year award. So, the pressure is on for him, you know. People are talking about him because of his size, but if he can't consistently improve, I'm worried he might end up as a one-time wonder player.

478  Economy / Economics / Re: AI will put an end to work, says Elon Musk on: November 09, 2023, 09:11:24 PM
Yeah, as I have said that there's no doubt with that that some of the jobs will be easier because of AIs and more productive.
But it seems that there are people that have been over exaggerating what AIs can do as of now. I know that in some years in the near future, there can be more of what they can do because they are being developed continuously. But let's just all set to what is in the current.
I agree, people are over-exaggerating the power of AI when its power depends entirely on us humans. If we don't provide it with data, it will just be a pile of useless scrap metal, so there will be no way AI or robots can replace humans in all fields or even control the human world.

AI is created to help and bring convenience to humans, it is not created to replace or destroy humanity, so we should stop making exaggerated assumptions about AI.
That's right, there's a basis to what it produces and it all depends to the gathered data that it gets from its developer and through the web.
When they don't have those things then that means that they're equipped with zero knowledge and will learn on its own.
It might learn as fast as it can be but it won't learn everything that it knows without a source.

You should brace for the worst my friend, the AI threat is real if you are an employee, although there is a limit to what they can do. But if not well regulated, it would surely affect the labour market. Whether people exaggerate or not, it's evident around us now and I'm certain that with much development of AIs in some sectors, it might take about 75% of the workforce, it's already happening though people have not started seeing it. AI is just like a human on its own, only that it can't feel but would practically do all that humans could do if it could be coded and built for that task. There is an FX company, one of my mains that is now dealing with clients with AI and this is with over 95% of the deals according to my recent experience.

This ranges from whatever service you can think of to the point I now wonder if there is still a human being there, all fully automated now but was fully manual before. Imagine, such a company would have laid off hundreds of employees but would have gotten away since the world has not started seeing it as an offence or a threat. Thankfully, there are AI conferences many times a year, such started recently by world powers, and I believe it's a way to find a lasting solution to this potential menace.
I'm aware of its potential but I wouldn't scare of the innovation that it's going to offer in the real life. The ones that should be threatened are those that are passive and are not willing to upscale their skills.
And the other guy who has said that there are certain labors that it can't replace and that's why it's not going to that extent that everything will be replaced by it.
But you're right, to those that don't skill up, they should embrace for the worst as they're not prepared for it.
480  Economy / Economics / Re: AI will put an end to work, says Elon Musk on: November 09, 2023, 07:20:10 AM
AI won't be able to replace humans in every job but if we're looking at what the future's going to look like it's going to perform some jobs in a better way. AI's going to be perfected to take over any job that's reliant on calculations and accuracy which humans won't be able to do better than AI.

No doubt that AI has made a lot of jobs easier and made people convenient that are in line of their works for the usage of it.
But there are people that should just stop worshiping and idolizing what AIs can do. It's still made by human and there's always the limitation with our knowledge just as is.
There's always the basis of its knowledge and I don't really think that all jobs will be replaced and removed by it.
Yeah, as I have said that there's no doubt with that that some of the jobs will be easier because of AIs and more productive.
But it seems that there are people that have been over exaggerating what AIs can do as of now. I know that in some years in the near future, there can be more of what they can do because they are being developed continuously. But let's just all set to what is in the current.
