Believe it or not, I don't regret knowing gambling cause it taught me some lesson in life.
How to control my greed and when to quit in order to win.
It also helps me when I feel lonely, it was my way to enjoy and forget some of my problems or you might say emotional support.
So I don't ever regret knowing it, even though I lost some money from gambling.
I am happy that I was introduced to gambling and that i have also seen the bad side of gambling which has made me to understand how to gamble responsible. We shouldn't blame anyone for our weakness, so that we can be able to work on our weakness to be better tomorrow. U think that your friend is fusturated because he thought that gambling is something that he can use to make money and he became so addicted that he has even forgotten that he can come out from his addiction at his own will. Maybe he can't control his emotions. OP, when next you see this friend of yours, you should tell him to stop gambling that he will be a better person but he needs to have that self determination and believe towards this.

Real Madrid has always been a top performer when it comes to the champions league,all season,they've always been the team with a good performance,and even despite not having the names that used to be there and give them that experience,but now,they currently have a squad that is full of young talents who are capable of winning the Champions league as well.

However,Arsenal, Dortmund,and Manchester City are other teams who may win the league as well,and after the round of 16,we would know the teams who can really go through to the final with the performance that will be displayed in this round.
Real Madrid might be experiencing inconsistent results in La Liga but they can be able to deliver when it's time for them to play tough matches. Real Madrid is the best club when it comes to winning major trophies and competing in elite competitions. They have the right players, an experience coach and die-hard fans that channel their energy to becoming one of the best leading club. Mentioning Arsenal and Borrusia Dortmund, they can proves to be competitive within due time and gets knockout when the main business arises.

One person I respect much in the Real Madrid squad is their fatherly figure coach - Ancelotti. He is a man of wisdom and experience and he uses both as his unconquered armour. How he blends the strength of the young players with experience of the old players to produce unique results amazes me. Gradually, he has gotten a consistently good squad such that the young ones can do what we know about Real Madrid.
Currently that many players are injured but the effect is not felt. Real Madrid is obviously a strong contender of the champions league and they can win it, especially as the defending champion which is Manchester city has dropped two steps from the last season form.
Yes, Manchester City is in much worse form than last year. They suffered back-to-back losses in the Premier League. Their performance in the UCL was good, but their groups consisted of teams that were slightly weaker than them. They were matched with Copenhagen, which is also a team that can be considered weak. Currently, the fixture advantages work entirely in Manchester City's favor. I think Real Madrid is the cup favorite this year. I hope the cup will be lifted up in their hands this year.
Yea, I also see Real Madrid as the favorite team to win the trophy this season because from the look of things, I don't think that there will be any team that will be able to stop them because they have the good quality of players that are desperate and serious to win the league. Man City might not survive the round of 8, if they don't improve in their performance because with the way they have being playing games with inconsistency recently, shows that they will not be able to make it to the finals.

I appreciate all the nice words and encouragement from everyone and it gives me joy to see that these orphans are happy from the little that I could do for them. It is festive period and we all need to keep the love flowing in our own little way so that we can make an impact on the less privilege.

I am not too interested in you introducing Bitcoin to these orphans because they are underaged and might not have the financial resources to invest in Bitcoin.
An orphanage home does not have only small kids, there are also teenagers of 16-19(yrs). I could only get the picture of these kids because it was more of video than snapping. I heard that on Saturdays is always there skill acquisation day, i.e they have experts that comes from outside to teach these children different skills based on their area of interest.

~~~
Most likely your bet will win this time, because for Girona 3 points means returning its position at the top of the standings. Avoiding even the slightest mistake is a must, because Alaves can also be a troublesome team if they are anticipated incorrectly. Therefore, Michel still has to field his best squad and close the week perfectly. Happiness is surrounding Girona, from top to bottom, so you need to manage your self-confidence well so you don't lose luck in the form of 3 points.

The valuable capital obtained last week made all bettors dare to place bets on Girona victory. Statistically, Girona numbers continue to climb, difficult for any team in La Liga to match except for Madrid. With Girona consistency so far, Alaves will lose points and have to delay moving up the rankings. We will wait and see how the match goes, I hope both of them play openly and aggressively.
Talking about Girona, the first thing that comes to my mind is the consistency of their performance this season. Girona have managed their best season in La Liga in the club's history, so they will want to maintain that form as best as possible and avoid mistakes. They are very eager to achieve victory after victory even in difficult matches, so the chances of Girona losing this season are too small to think about.

Artem Dovbyk, Sávio, Yan Couto, Aleix García Serrano and all the Girona players are having a great season at the moment. Dovbyk has been a productive striker this season for Girona even though he has only started his first season. Dovbyk has scored 8 goals and 4 assists in 15 matches, making him one of the most dangerous players in his position this season.


Girona does not miss the opportunities that come its way. As you said, their performance is very consistent. They evaluate the mistakes of the big teams in the league very well. They continue their good performance in this match. Girona took the lead 2-0 in the 42nd minute of the match. They are now closer to victory and I think they will play more comfortable football in the remaining minutes of the match.

They will increase their points to 44 and increase the point difference between them and Real Madrid to 2. Every time the team wins, they become more confident and this continues exponentially.
A good performance from Girona as they don't want to take any chance of allowing Real Madrid to be above them after they took over the first position from Real Madrid due to a draw that they had. Girona performance id becoming more consistent and I see them like a threat to Real Madrid who is a big and strong club. If they can continue with winning all their games it means that it will be hard for Real Madrid to win the trophy this season, but nobody knows how far they can be consistent yet.
586  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Introducing bitcoin to the orphans on my birthday on: December 18, 2023, 06:33:58 PM
Ever since I joined this forum, I have read so many topics of forum members introducing bitcoin to people around them for the fast growth of bitcoin adoption. I saw that there are some people that are missing from this great innovation and this set of people can be the leaders of tomorrow, and this are the orphans in the orphanage homes. This kept me wondering that how will these orphans also have bitcoin knowledge and maybe they can also be part of the bitcoin community in future. If they know the basic of bitcoin from now, as time passes on they might pick interest to know more about bitcoin, since bitcoin will soon be the talk of the town everywhere you go.

I went on charity work to the Diasy orphanage home in my LGA today which happens to be my birthday to present them with gifts and food items, and I  used this opportunity to introduce bitcoin to them, telling them that all I brought to them was gotten through bitcoin. Today is my first time to celebrate my birthday with orphans and as you can see I am in Diasy orphanage home to put smiles on the face of the orphans because this is the season to show love to people around us. I have introduced bitcoin to these lovely children after I presented the gifts to them. Mrs Inita Amaduwgu is the owner of the orphanage home and she was happy with the introduction of bitcoin to the orphans and her workers. She said that she will create time for me to come back and teach her workers, when the children have gone to school, so that they can also teach the children at their own convenient time. I gave gave them a cartoon video on bitcoin so that the younger children will not be left out.

I feel very excited and have this joy in me for what I did today, and I said let me share it with you all. I thank the Almighty God for giving me the grace be plus one today.
My thanks goes to julierz12 and [banned mixer] team for giving me the opportunity to work with them, because it was the money from my signature campaign that I used to buy those gifts. I also give thanks to all forum members who have motivated me in one way or the other.

I wish you all a merry Xmas and a Happy New year in advance.

I'm interested in the match between Napoli and Barcelona. I think it's hard to say which team will pass this round. Napoli are far from last season's performance but they are still a very good team. Other than that, I think the other matches have favorite teams. Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund are the favorites. The excitement in the Champions League will be more in the next round. Of course it is a bit early to talk about it but I don't expect too many surprises in this round.
You have predicted well mate, and the only match that is unpredictable is Napoli vs Barca. The two teams are have declined in performance compared to last season and this is what will make the match somehow fun to watch so that one can see which of the club will be sent packing either Barca or Napoli. Inter should also be able to win Athletico Madrid and This will also be another interesting match to watch.
588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 17, 2023, 07:04:25 PM
Liverpool vs Man U game reminded me of Arsenal vs Brighton game in the first half... Liverpool had a lot of shots but couldn't score a single goal... The game will be over soon, and I didn't expect the score to be 0-0... I hope there will be a goal in the last minutes...

34 goal attempts, 8 shots on goal and 12 corner kicks for Liverpool in this match, but Liverpool failed to make a goal in this match, and Liverpool had to accept a draw in this match with a score of 0-0. I think, although Liverpool still got 1 point in this match but still, this draw is not good for Liverpool in the Premier League standings.

Because yes, with this draw it makes Liverpool currently in 2nd place with the same points as Aston Villa with 38 points, and they have a 1 point gap with Arsenal. The reason I say this is a bad result is because Liverpool played at home and also, Liverpool had very good dominance in this match and ya, at least at this moment Manchester United did not have a good performance too. Therefore, on paper Liverpool should be able to beat Manchester United but yes, the final result in this match is only a goalless draw and I think this result is quite disappointing.
This was because Manchester united was able to bring put their best performance and didn't give Liverpool any chance of scoring them, and so far the game ended in a draw even upon what the referee did in the extra time of the game by giving Dalot a red card so that Liverpool can be able to score a goal with one man down for Manchester united. It was a good defensive game that united played even after missing some good opportunities that was suppose to be converted to a goal. Liverpool has dropped point and Arsenal has taken the lead again. It was a bad day for Liverpool in Anfield and Klopp was frustrated with the result.

OP, you got the idea wrong on real estate. This is an asset that will always increase in value because humans needs shelter to hide their head and start a family. All three assets that you mentioned are very good asset and anyone that has an investment in all has overcome poverty. Bitcoin is the new one amongst the other and and due to its volatile nature, it has become one of the best but I don't think that it has been approved as a safe haven yet. I don't think that they will stop to use real estate as collateral as long as we are using fiat, it will be impossible because banks and government are in charge of fiat, if bank wants to give you a loan, they will always prefer house property, because they can easily use the property of sell it off and get their profit. Unlike bitcoin that is volatile in nature. What you said about gold is true because it is already a safe haven.
590  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I finally sold my computer and bought bitcoin. I don't regret . on: December 17, 2023, 02:51:01 PM
OP, I don't have any reason to doubt you because it is your laptop and you have every right to do whatever that you want with your property. Also you said that you have a Samsung laptop which you are currently using, it means that the one you sold is not that useful to you, and I will say that it is a good idea. I hope that you will not sell your bitcoin investment in a rush if there is a little dip below your entry point. The last thing that I have to say is that you should use the money that you kept in the bank to buy bitcoin weekly or monthly in different time, that is if you don't need the money at all because the bank will not give you any profit for keeping your money lying idle there and fiat depreciates. This is why you should buy bitcoin with it by sharing them into equal parts and buy using DCA.

Twitch see gambling as something evil bit they have seen artist nudity as something good to the public, this is unfair as a lot of teens below 18 will be tempted by those sculpture or arts. I see that they believe that they will have more customers than that of gambling and that was why they came up with this strategy no to lose out in business. They are doing this for money and nothing more, but I prefer gambling to this. Both gambling and light porn have their own side effect.

Manchester City is in a lot of attacks at the moment and Manchester City managed to score 1 goal in 24 minutes. But now Crystal Palace's defense is very weak at the moment due to which they have a lot of attacking opportunities. Manchester City have 74% of the ball, and Crystal Palace have the remaining 26%. I can see Manchester City having the ball at their feet for most of the halftime, but in attack Crystal Palace had 14 shots at the goal post, and Crystal Palace only 2.
Manchester City will definitely win the match because I can see players like Grealish that is adding more effort to make sure that his club doesn't lose the match. Currencies they are on the lead and that is how the match is going to continue, because they will be on the lead till the end of the game. There will be more scores in the second half from both teams and I believe that Manchester city will score up to 3 goals in this match. Chelsea are finding it difficult to put the ball at the back of their opponent's net and I don't see them winning their own match.

Mr Li is a scammer and he is working with the conversion company that is asking for a deposits before the money can be withdrawn. They are all working together and your wife is their victim, if she pays any money, it is also gone. And I must tell you that those money that you wife put into the trade and made profit, if she hasn't withdraw all the money and it is still in their custody, the money is gone. This was why Mr Li was telling her to increase the money that she wants to trade with so that gradually, she will get committed to them before they strike. This money that they asked for is the striking time, she will not seen any of those funds anymore as it is gone. It is better that she forget about the whole thing and never to trust strangers online. Most people giving trading signals and advice are scammers.
596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: December 15, 2023, 04:58:30 PM
Atletico Madrid are technically doing a little better than Barcelona in the league now. Despite having a missing game to play they have the same points with Barcelona now and they are ahead in the standings as well. That loss against Girona by Barcelona was telling us a lot of things. Barcelona are still inadequate in some ways to maintain their title competition comfortably.

In a couple of weeks Atletico Madrid are also going to face Girona so I'm curious about what will happen in that game as well. I don't feel like Atletico Madrid defense would be as weak as Barcelona's then. But first Simeone needs to deal with Athletic Bilbao away. It will be quite a difficult game for them.

Girona is a team that plays fast games and always attacks well to ensure they win. Real Madrid is the only team that has defeated Girona, and if we look at the game between real Madrid and Girona, we will know that real Madrid knows how to play with Girona and that is the only step the remaining teams should use to defeat Girona. Girona defeated Barcelona because of the defensive players' weakness and occasionally selfishness with the ball.

Girona's players are not tiring easily, so it will be beneficial if Atletico Madrid keeps fighting until the very end. Based on Atletico Madrid's performance, I think Girona will lose to Atletico Madrid. That is, if the team plays with seriousness and if its defence players don't make light of the match. Girona will beat them in a similar manner to how they defeated Barcelona.

It is very hard these days to predict Girona because they are unpredictable and they keep on playing with passion and zeal of winning. I must say that they are in their best form and any team that wants to win them most study their game pattern and come up with a game strategy that will overpower theirs. What I see is that Girona is consistent and know how to take advantage of their opponent weakness to win the game. I am no underestimating Athletico but they need to be careful and come up with a better game plan to win Girona who is not a big club but are far better than big clubs this season. It was this same thing that I thought that Barca will win them but the game ended up in favor of Girona.
597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 15, 2023, 02:34:02 PM
Milan are the only team that have a chance to keep up with Inter and Juventus in the standings. However they pulled away from Milan even more by the results of the previous week.  Sad  Atalanta made really serious difficulties for Milan. They got ahead 2 times and it was obvious they weren't going to let Milan go away with a win there. That winning goal in the last minutes devastated Milan.

Now even Juventus are 7 points ahead of Milan. This is a serious gap thinking that we haven't even completed the first half of the season. It looks like this will be more like a title competition between two teams - Inter and Juventus. It is early to say so maybe but I don't think both of them will start performing badly for a long time.
Previously, Milan was team that could match Juventus and Inter this season, but in the current conditions it seems that hope has disappeared because the gap between Milan and the top two teams is very large.
No team can stop Inter and Juventus this season unless they suffer consecutive defeats, in the future, there may be chance for another team to rise, but this is unlikely to happen.
The fight for first place and the title will continue between Inter as the top of the standings and Juventus as the team in 2nd place and of course those who are only two points apart will try hard to win the title this season.
Serie A will only enter its 16th week and soon the transfer window will also open so that several teams will have the opportunity to get several players to improve their squad and be able to get better place.

So, from the 7 point difference, if Milan wants to be able to compete and become one of the candidates in the race for the title, then needs at least 3 wins with 2 losses Juventus in the next match.
But this will only be hope that is difficult to come true and even luck will not be able to make Milan become the strongest team this season.

Yeah previously Milan even won the Serie A title in the 2021/22 season. However they are struggling to be a part of a title competition for two seasons. Napoli dominated the whole season previously though so no other team were able to keep up with them. But right now things are different. More than one team are in this competition now.

Milan need to deal with their defending first I assume. Because their scoring capability isn't that bad however I can't say the same for their defensive side.  Sad  They are one of the most conceding teams among the ones at top positions right now.
Milan started the season in a super form but after a while they started declining in performance and this happened after Inter won them. Italian league is not like EPL that one club will win the league straight three times. The competition there is very high and any club can win the league, it all depends on which club is strong that season. I believe that it is time for Inter to win the league as they haven't won it recently and I believe that has been their target for the season. However,  Juventus is a threat to them and if they lose focus on the league, it can be snatched from them by Juventus who are currently in a strong form.

OP, a big congratulations to you and I appreciate the effort that you family made to make sure that they were able to give you $90 for you buy your first bitcoin. It means that you family has made you proud on this as your dream have finally come true. What I want to tell you is that if you are not a student or too young, you should go get a job or something that will give you an income, so that you can start buying bitcoin on your own. It is good to use your own money to invest and not other people money, so that you will be able to grow your investment. This is because I don't think that your parents will still give your another funds to buy bitcoin. You should also take note that bitcoin gives profit when you hold it for a very long period of time and if you are thinking of selling this bitcoin in the next bull run, then you got it wrong. Hodli and increase your bitcoin through regular DCA.

Union st.Gilloise vs Liverpool today will give Liverpool opportunity to win 3 points from the game, because they have shown some improvement in other tournament that made them to be among the teams that will win some trophy in some competition which they will use the advantage to maintain the top position to achieve some thing good from this group E. Union St Golloise are in 3rd position in the UEFA Europa league group E because they are not performing well to withstand some teams than to make other teams to get opportunity from them in some games.
 
Lask vs Toutouse will be a tough game but Toutouse will beat Lask 1:3 for the favour of Toutouse for their coach to be honor by their fans, because they are in the 2nd position in the UEFA Europa league group E which is a sign that they did well in this season.

Ez win for liverpool. Believe me if its opponent was nothing for liverpool. Im sure that if liverpool is going to win the game. Anyone who is willing to get easy money shall bet on liverpool. Klopp may not be repeating the stupid mistake by using the secondary squad in the last matchday. Liverpool needs to finish as the leader of the group.

That sounds quite naive to me Wink Liverpool is already qualified for the next round and they can't be displaced from the first position as they are ahead with 4 points. Union Saint-Gilloise is still in the competition for the next round, but they have to beat Liverpool and then there is a slight chance they can still make it into the next round.

That's why I think this game won't be an easy walkover for Liverpool at all. I am sure that Klopp won't want to risk any of his players to get an injury and miss Premier League games.
I believe that tonight's game will be an easy win for Liverpool as they are stronger than their opponent so this will be a work over match. Liverpool stands a better chance to win this season Europa league and I don't see any club that can stop them, if they don't lose form. Bayern Leverkusen is also strong and I will love it if both clubs with clash in the finals to mate it more interesting.

Spain was the country with the most representatives in the Champions League in the round of 16 this season and 4 of its representatives also managed to become group winners in their respective groups. Meanwhile, for representatives from the league which is said to be the most competitive in the world, only 2 representatives managed to qualify for the round of 16 and they were also represented by the two best teams since last season. It is a fact that Spain is still a better league than other leagues on the list of top European leagues.

On the other hand, Italy and Germany also did not want to lose and they brought their 3 representatives through to the round of 16. I think this season's Champions League will still be dominated by teams from Spain and the strongest rivals will be teams from Germany. But I haven't forgotten the only team from England that is still a strong candidate to win the Champions League again this season and that is Manchester City.
I love everything you wrote mate and you said the facts, but you said something that might not be possible because I don't think it will happen this season. It is that Manchester City is in a better chance of winning UCL which I doubt. With the current performance of Man city, I don't think that they will make it to the finals, if they meet a strong teams because they have declined in performance compared to last season that they were super strong. They have draw four games in EPL and won their last game which is not a good result for them and that shows that they are weak and won't be able to challenge a team like Real Madrid or Inter if they clash in the round of 16. De bruyne is still on injury and no De bryune no Halaad goal scoring. I think this season the cup will go to Spain as they did very well in the group stage.
