What would make a government to rebrand their traditional currencies just to edit some graphic designs with excessive amounts of money bills involved to execute such project that doe not mean to brings more values to the currency neither does it boost the economy level of the nation?
Meanwhile such is been an undeveloped country which the implemented bill for such valueless project is big enough to create infrastructures with the potentials of building the masses with valuable skills and otherwise a national financial revenue.
Do we assume it is still one of the money laundering strategies that the government intentionally creates loopholes in other to steal the public funds? Because even after the implementations and execution of Such projects, the same governments clamours that the nation has run out of funds after giving accounts of those irrelevant executed projects.
OP, the design and refacing of a countries currency has been a habitual method that is even constitutional, for some countries is after a decade, some after two decades. There are several reasons why a country redesigns their currency note, it can be for a facelift, it can be to discouraged people that have looted the currency and hoarded it for a very long time, it can as well to be to fight against counterfeit notes that might be out there in circulation. What gives a countries currency value, is not redesigning of the currency, it is the economic viability of that country. However i don't see redesigning of a countries currency as a valueless project, I see it as a constitutional duty that is done procedurally to keep the countries bill in check. Currently in ENGLAND they are gradually facing of the the British pounds that carries the image of late QUEEN ELIZABETH and replacing it with the image of KING CHARLES, because they laws allows that. For me OP, it is not every action that your government takes that you have to criticize, sometimes you just have to look at the policies that government are presenting critically before you start criticizing. |

I was not surprised that Liverpool could not beat Manchester United at Old Trafford in their Premier League match yesterday. This season, since Liverpool could not beat Manchester United in the Premier League and FA Cup, I knew they would find it difficult to beat Manchester United in the Premier League. Even though Liverpool drew with Manchester United, the Premier League title race is wide-open because Arsenal and Liverpool have the same points.
Since both teams needed the winning for the Premier League top position(Liverpool for the PL title, and Manchester United for chances of the Europa League even though the chances are slim), having a draw point was the least they could do for themselves but for me, it would have been preferable for Liverpool to have the three points win because of the PL title win. Since the match happened to be a draw point, not no point added, Liverpool focused on lifting the PL trophy can still happen, if they can be determined to win the rest of their remaining(seven) games. I believe Arsenal and Manchester City will have such a mindset to win their remaining games. That's what we will see as the match results unfold every week. I wish the three top clubs luck as the PL fight for the title becomes more competitive as which clubs own it The race has been intensive, and it's still currently open given the draw Liverpool played against Manchester united, and you shouldn't be surprised because this is football. I knew the came pattern of Manchester united has been difficult for Liverpool to conquer, the tactics they play it's a bit difficult for Liverpool unlike Manchester city that will conquer the midfield and push the players backyard, and the rest of the midfield will be their conquered territory. "Since the match happened to be a draw point, no point added " I disagree with this your statement. at least they shared a point, if they most win the EPL, then Manchester united remained as obstacle they needed to surmount, however they couldn't, because no obstacle is small especially in the game of football. Going by the way things are now, if arsenal decides to win all their games remaining now, then they will definitely lift the trophy. |

Today is a very interesting matchday... Man U did not lose to Liverpool, although they could even win, but they had the same bad luck as in the last match against Chelsea... But Liverpool disappointingly missed out on the top spot in the EPL... And Chelsea could not beat Sheffield, which is in last place in the standings...
Man United's performance was still quite good against Liverpool even though the previous match lost to Chelsea but I was happy with last night's match. Chelsea is worse, somehow Chelsea is worse playing with the lower teams than playing with the upper teams this team reacts faster but with Shuffield not being able to win it is really bad because this team is at the bottom. This is why I always hesitate when betting on Chelsea games. Chelsea's 2-2 draw with Sheffield United keeps amusing me on how possible can that be to have a draw match with a relegation club after showing us a tremendous performance last week with late minutes-winning goals against Manchester United that made many say Chelsea must have picked their performance skills back for them to win Manchester United, not knowing that the big flop is their way this week when they face Sheffield United. Anyone who's betting on Chelsea to win any of their matches in the remaining matches of the Premier League needs to be reminded that Chelsea can win a relegation club. Sheffield United and Burney are the two relegation clubs, Chelsea is having a draw within the space of two weeks. What a shameful thing It's a very shameful draw which makes most Chelsea fan felt as if they lost the game, because if they cannot win a team like Sheffield united that are in the relegation zone, who are they going to win? That is how they struggled against Burnley even when they are a man down, this shows how horrible this Chelsea team is. And as for the manager, I really don't think he actually knows what he was doing because yesterday when they where leading 2-1, he removed people he ort not to , and the changes that cost them the game is for him to remove cucurella and brought on badachile who is in a very bad for of recent, and he was the one that cause the equalizing goal of Sheffield united, because he missed a heading clearance, which eventually led to the equalizer. Those Chelsea fans shouldn't get that kind of feelings. this is football, they won Manchester United in a game that had already ended in favour of Manchester United, the golden rule in football had to play in, which says it's not over until it's over. Liverpool drew against Manchester United yesterday, I personally thought Manchester United had won that game, but before the final whistle, it ended 2-2. Liverpool fans where bitter and excited at the same time with that game, because it was a game they needed to win to maintain their gap with arsenal, however it was looking as if they will lose the match, as it was 2-1 in favour of United even towards die minute, their dreams where shattered as they didn't see a lose against Manchester United coming, despite losing to them at the FA CUP, so at some point they had to smile again as it end 2-2, though not the result they were yearning for but at least they got a point. Half bread 🥪🍞 they say is better than nothing. |

I saw this news some days back about call of Duty cheaters losing their bitcoin as hackers target gamers with malware on https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2024/03/29/call-of-duty-cheaters-allegedly-lose-their-bitcoin-as-hackers-target-gamers-with-malware/The malware has already impacted hundreds of thousands of players and the numbers are still growing, as per malware market informer @vxunderground.
“It should be noted that some of these accounts are also not cheaters,” @vxunderground added. “Some users impacted utilized gaming software for latency improvement, VPNs, and certain controller boosting software.”
Call of Duty cheat code provider “PhantomOverlay” was first to notice the suspicious activity after users reported unauthorized purchases. Rival cheat providers like Elite PVPers confirmed similar attacks to @vxunderground in the past week.
The stolen data includes freshly stolen credentials, with some victims also reporting their Electrum wallets were also drained. The total amount of crypto stolen is still unknown.
Call of Duty developer Activision Blizzard (ATVI) is reportedly working with the cheat code providers to help the affected players. The current estimated number of compromised accounts includes over 3.6 million Battlenet accounts, 561,000 Activision accounts, and 117,000 Elite PVPers accounts. Base on the same news, this is not the first time hackers have targeted game cheaters have targeted, another popular game, Fortnite were a suppose cheat became a malware to still gamers bitcoin logins in 2018 https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2018/10/05/fake-cheat-for-popular-game-fortnite-hides-bitcoin-targeting-malware/ and then in 2019 they experience another one https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2019/08/26/new-crypto-stealing-ransomware-targets-fortnite-players/Hackers will continue to target gamers since there are alot of things they get from them if they get access to their gaming accounts like their credit card, email address, bitcoin and other cryptocurrency and others. I would advice to use a seperate device for gaming in what you use for holding of your coins, have a seperate credit card for gaming and also try to have a seperate passwordand email for gaming Kaspersky did research on cyber attacks base on data shared voluntarily by their users from July 1, 2022 to July 1, 2023. Here is their key findings Key findings From July 1, 2022 to July 1, 2023: - In total, Kaspersky detected 4,076,530 game-related desktop infection attempts over the past year, which affected 192,456 gamers worldwide.
- The most common threat was Downloaders (89.70%), followed by Adware (5.25%) and Trojans (2.39%).
- The top game used as a lure was Minecraft, which saw 70.29% of all detections, followed by Roblox (20.37%), Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (4.78%) and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (2.85%).
- Our mobile solutions detected 436,786 gaming-related infection attempts that affected 84,539 users.
- Minecraft users (90.37%) were the biggest targets for mobile malware, with PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (5.09%), Roblox (3.33%) and Baldur’s Gate (0.68%) being the next most often used lures.
From the report, it said that the hackers are targeting game-cheaters, so is it that, cheater's are been targeted because they are bypassing the system, are the hackers doing these to also discourage others from cheating. However if that's the case, innocent persons can can actually download software's with malware attached to it, and then fall victim of this scammers, because from the report I'm seeing, people using Electrum wallet where not spared. " The game developer is reported working with the cheat code providers to help the affected players", my question is, is it to help those games Cheaters to recover their lost coins, or help de-escalate the matter my making sure hackers don't get access to cause havoc again, or not to allow cheaters compromise the system again? |

Paternity fraud is increasingly becoming a trend these days. Every day, we wake up to different news about paternity fraud, which is becoming worrisome. Why would people be so wicked or careless to do that?
Three major causes of the high incidence of paternity fraud are
1: The woman having multiple partners: When a woman has sexual relationships with more than one partner within the same timeframe, this can lead to uncertainty about the biological father of the child conceived during this time.
2: The woman not understanding her menstrual cycle to accurately estimate the time of ovulation. Some women who have multiple partners and can't calculate their ovulation are not aware of who the father of their child is until a DNA test is done.
3: When a child is switched at birth.
People should desist from this because this act is harmful, and it has consequences like emotional pain for your partner, feelings of betrayal, and it also has a psychological impact on the child.
OP the factor's you've enlisted are the true causes of paternity fraud. However DNA has helped a lot of people not to raise children that is not theirs, some too have raised children that is not theirs and later found out about the true paternity of that child. but as a parent, its actually painful to raise a child that is not yours without knowing, and maybe in the later part of the years, you see somebody coming to clame with evidence a child you've raised with love and passion, telling you to your face that your not the legitimate father of that baby you've nurtured, the feelingvat that moment cannot be described. |

Call me an idiot, I don't care but I believe that this question deserves some answer.
I have been hearing about the importance of buying Bitcoin at the dip and something good strikes my heart.
What if I can't be available when Bitcoin is dumping? What if I am away because in reality I am always busy, you can tell how epileptic my activeness on this forum have become.
Is there anyway to buy Bitcoin dips when I am not available? So this come to my mind straight away.
A bitcoin buy the dip bot, that can trigger a certain price when I am away, is this possible?
Don't tell me to use a centralized exchange, been not active in crypto space means that a centralized exchange can collapse before you come back, I want something in my control.
If you have a better option, don't hesitate to share.
Well, you can use the DCA method to buy the dip, you just have to have a certain investment plan with a capital in place for let's say six months. There are trusted centralised exchange like Binance, because most of the possibilities of what you want can actually be done with bot using CEX. However your not an idiot, your just an investor looking for flexible method to suit your investment schedule, which is quite understandable. |

Nepotism kill meritocracy,
It kills and discourages healthy competition,
It brings disrepute to any system.
Politicians have found a loophole to discourage Nigerians especially when it comes to job seeking, most Nigerians find it difficult to apply for federal jobs because it is believed that it is reserved for person with upper hand, and in most cases that's what happens.
The truth is that, there is nepotism in every part of world, but just that, the one practice in Nigeria has a higher voltage. Which is why most of time you don't have competent people manning strategic positions in the country because they got it outside of merit.

The truth is that no matter whether a team scores first against them or not, Manchester City barely loses any games.
Manchester City maintain the same level of confidence like Liverpool and even when they are behind by a goal, they never rule themselves out from the game. Crystal Palace were very poor defensively and wasted the chances they had to make the game more difficult for Manchester City to win. Manchester City move to second place ahead of Arsenal who have a game against Brighton who can be a difficult opponent to win especially at home. Aston Villa are still in the battle to maintain their 4th position on the league, as they now play Brentford in hopes to get all three points and continuing securing their place for the champions league next season. Ollie Watkins plays this week, increasing Aston Villa's chances of winning. No Ivan Tooney for Brentford in this first half, the coach will bring him in the second. Manchester city maintained their confidence and that has been one of the master stroke they have, even in the face of animosity they still strive to prove a point conquering the midfield as usual, though with this crystal palace game, there are some palace players I would blame for being greedy with the ball especially on the goal mouth, Eze and Ayew at one point in the game had the chances to either pass the ball for others to score but they became greedy and refused to pass. Against a team like Manchester city, you make use of any opportunity that comes your way, because they will capitalize on your mistakes and trash with enough goals. |

We can't dispute the fact that the advent of technology has played a great role in improving activities in the workplace. With the networking of the different PCs in companies, it has become easy to send a broadcast message to all staff at a time, and coupled with other sophisticated technology, coordinating and controlling multiple workers has become easier which has resulted in a high level of productivity and an increase in the staff to management relationships.
But then, the issue of workers' privacy and management compliance with work ethics has been of serious concern, and to a very large extent, it always appears as though most management has always used technology to the disadvantage of her staff. You find situations where CCTV cameras are mounted in most offices and privacy is denied to its peak. Most PCs used by staff are always under serious surveillance and sometimes, staff's don't even have a single knowledge that they are being monitored, and whenever they get a bit flimsy, their job is threatened.
I understand the importance of monitoring workers to ascertain there level of productivity, and to improve workers attendance and also enhance Cyber security but then, the inability of most management to go about this ethically has been of great concern to me.
What's your view about this?
Op first of all, you must understand that it is an official environment so it's appropriate to keep activities on a public glare, because most times we've had cases of theft in an official environment and if there is no CCTV or hidden cameras to identify some of these misgivings that happens in the office, we won't know those involved. Workers should always understand that they are in a working environment and everything that they are doing from their dress code to the way they communicate and how they relate to each other, should be ethical and in tandem to rules of the company. so I'm in support of those CCTV camera, to enhance transparency and accountability on the side of the workers, because it is a business environment and you are there for a serious work, you are there to be productive and those you are working for ought to look at your level of productivity so that they won't wake up one morning and hear that the company has been sold out to somebody else and the ground work was done by workers within the company. |

As part of the effort to improving on the structure of the national identity card that's already in place, the federal government has launched an innovative identity card with payment functionality . The general multipurpose card (GMPC) is to be issued to Nigerians and legal residence of Nigeria as thier default national identity card. Key features of the card includes; 1. The card can be used as debit or prepaid card by linking it to your bank. 2. The card shall enable holders to have access to government intervention fund. 3. It will contain machine readable zone for e passport information 4. Contain your national identity number 5. Contain biometric authentication i.e fingerprint. 6. Offline capabilities that allows transaction in areas with no internet access What's your take on this planned improvement on the Nigeria national identity card? Should we be expecting a possible difficulty in getting this new identity card like what happened when the previous identity card was made compulsory?  OP if what you've listed are the true functions of the card, then that's a good one. Citizens needs to have a unique number that can have multiple functions just like the western world. The only problem I have here is the ability to access government intervention funds by the ordinary citizens who don't have connections, we've heard multiple times about government releasing funds for the indigent in the society and the most vulnerable, yet those funds just disappear into the tin air without the actual people getting them. In adopting some of these advanced technological methods in a bid to build a societal structure, we still need to purge ourselves of political interest and greed that runs the system, else the main purpose of some of these innovations will be defeated. |

I like that you used the word "if" which is a really strong word in this context because like you pointed out earlier, City are hungry for goals and would be looking to do to another club that which they did to Aston Villa and you'd agree with me that in terms of strength, Unai Emery's Aston are tougher than Crystal but they still got that thrashing and you think Crystal Palace will survive it? Home or away, it makes no difference. The only thing that might occur is that we might see Palace making it difficult for City to score but that won't mean they won't. Haaland hasn't scored in three games now if I'm not mistaken and will be itching to do so, and coupled with the fact that they drew their last match, Pep will be looking to take his pound of flesh, don't you think?
The only strange thing is that City could not do the same with Liverpool and Arsenal, and could not score a single goal. In the match with Arsenal, it was clear how an organized defense can ruin Guardiola’s plans, but I think they are no strangers to such games, most teams are simply trying to defend against City, by the way, even though Arteta’s strategy worked, I didn’t like Arsenal’s game at all. The game with Crystal Peles has already started, and Crystal Peles opens the scoring in the first minutes, this is unexpected and now City will have to win back, let's see how quickly they can do it. Now, by the way, Krista Peles may well play from defense on counterattacks. Manchester city have equalized with an astonishing goal from De Bruyne making it 1-1. Though crystal palace are still trying to show some level of home advantage against the citizens. Crystal palace goal keeper just saved a one on one with Haaland, I almost thought he had scored, that save was outstanding, however Manchester city are still playing there dominating style of play, pushing crystal palace backwards and taking over the midfield with crystal palace managing to see if they can end the first half like this. |

Chelsea's victory could not be separated from Diogo Dalot's mistake, who committed a violation in the penalty box and made Manchester United lose focus. And Chelsea's victory was thanks to Cole Palmer who completed an extraordinary hat trick well and the last two goals he scored just one minute apart left Manchester United humiliated.
And Manchester United's defense was terrible and Cole Palmer's two penalty kicks should not have happened, and this will be a lesson for Erik ten Hag to give firmness to his defenders.
We consider Manchester United to be an unlucky match in this match because of several small mistakes that cannot be blamed, such as the mistake made by Dalot which resulted in Chelsea's second penalty. Manchester United's defense is very chaotic which must receive attention in the transfer window. The current midfield is good enough to compete in the main league because Mainoo and several other names can fulfill Erik ten Hag's needs. Only defense is the main line that Erik ten Hag must improve next season if he wants to compete for the title. But we have been discussing the same thing for a long time now that Manchester United have organized their attack and in contrast they have failed to organize their midfield or defence. If the midfield is weak the pressure will be on the defense and if the defense is weak the strikers will be beaten every time by the opposition's counter attack no matter how many goals they score. If the defense and midfield are strong, the pressure on the strikers will be reduced and the strikers will be able to score freely, making Manchester United more likely to win than lose. Manchester United realize they have enough problems in defense and midfield yet why don't they try to fix these problems in every transfer window. They must work on this issue in the next transfer season or else they will perform this badly in the next season as well. Eric Ten had has had the same defensive pattern for some time now, the central midfield and the central defences lack composure to some extent. I think the only thing on a different side on the Manchester United team, is the attacking midfield who do more of trying to push the ball forward, Bruno Fernandez has been doing a fantastic job on that. Ten had is one coach that will try to manage a situation, instead of making instant change, we know the story of Onana and how he remained resolute on not to change Onana. Manchester United still needs more strikers upfront at least to help Radford. |

It seems that the more poor you are (and the fewer the investments that you have), the more important it is to both establish an emergency fund and also to maintain that emergency fund in cash rather than in any other assets.
Yes, that's basically factual because, there's no diversification in income streams to be able to fund the establishment of investments. Emergency funds as it were shouldn't be on assets form as they could suffer value fluctuation,and sometimes won't be the actual value you've set for emergency, and you cannot even predict the scale of the emergency.
I think that the longer that anyone invests, the more and more comfort that he should have about having had built various systems to protect his investment, but surely one of the problems becomes that sometimes people will start to unnecessarily take extra risks with some of their investment and not protecting themselves as much as they should, and surely there can be points in which your holdings are more vulnerable than others
Well, most extra (unnecessary)risks that people take in their investments, like you said earlier I'm previous posts, is having a lot more than 10% holdings in shitcoins, and is obviously a waste of percentage that could be put in Bitcoin investment. Investing in shitcoins long term is foolish, never make that mistake Bitcoin is trustworthy as far as possible If you invest $100 $100 you invest in Bitcoin. Then you can benefit the most, because long-term investment in bitcoins will certainly reap benefits. And if you can't then start saving bitcoins in DCA method. Of course you invest in bitcoins success is sure to come but you have to be patient. And maybe because there are some shitcoins that are tempting, but if you don't do a thorough analysis and don't do it well and don't follow it from the start it will be in vain and very risky. There is nothing better than Bitcoin for long-term investment and this has been proven other than shitcoins which do not have strong evidence, other than Bitcoin. And I think this DCA method is good and easy for beginners and also good for those who don't have the ability to buy Bitcoin in large quantities. Because we can buy according to our abilities periodically without forcing circumstances that do not support buying in large quantities, and do it for the long term and Bitcoin will definitely provide good returns for us. How do you even do a thorough analysis on some of this shitcoins that are very unpredictable, what kind of methodological research or analysis would you want to take in to cognizance to ascertain the certainty of some of this shitcoins. Because left alone with me they are not worth investing in, not to even talk of wanting to have the idea of having a long-term investment plan. Most people's have learnt the hard way after investing a lot of into shitcoins with the assurance that it's a project that is worth investing in. |

https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnhyatt/2024/04/02/the-richest-crypto-and-bitcoin-billionaires-in-the-world-2024/?sh=1bf1dacb726b"That’s helped make at least 17 people crypto billionaires, according to Forbes’ 2024 World’s Billionaires list, up from nine crypto billionaires last year. These 17 investors and entrepreneurs are worth a collective $93 billion, between their estimated crypto asset holdings, publicly disclosed stock holdings and private assets. That’s more than double the $37 billion in collective crypto billionaire wealth last year. For the third year running, Changpeng Zhao, founder and former CEO of crypto exchange Binance, is crypto’s wealthiest person. Despite pleading guilty to U.S. money laundering charges in November, CZ, as he’s known, is now worth an estimated $33 billion, up from $10.5 billion last year. That makes him the biggest crypto gainer in dollar terms since last year and the 50th-wealthiest person in the world. The bulk of his fortune comes from his majority stake in Binance, which remains the industry’s largest global trading venue by volume. 1. Changpeng Zhao Net worth: $33 billion (vs. $10.5 billion) | Source of wealth: Binance" __ 4 billion in fines isn't a lot of money to him. Of course given the amount of money he has gained from his initial investment of( $10.5 billion) to an increase in value of $33 billion, $4 billion as a fine, is more like a chicken change to him. The 50th richest person in the world, that's massive for changpeng Zhao. For him leaving Binance as the CEO wasn't too much of a big deal, because he had already built a global brand, Binance is the leading CEX in world at the moment, however he still has his stake in Binance. Though Ordinary the fine is on the high side, $4 billion is a lot of cash, the judgment was on a harsh side, as the amount for me would have been way lesser, maybe a $100 million. |

I'm already seeing Liverpool with the trophy this, because they might actually win those five away games, because Liverpool has that capacity, though they still have Manchester United to play on Sunday which might actually be a tough one for Liverpool considering their last experience during the FA cup game, where United came out victorious. However I feel since this is the premier League, Liverpool will definitely want to come out with all the missiles they have. If they come out victorious against Manchester United on Sunday, then there vision to left the trophy will become glaring.
Trophy is still far for Liverpool to get it as there are 8 more matches and they only have 2 and 3 points more than Arsenal and Manchester City. One bad match can change all situation from advantage to disadvantage for Liverpool. In a match with Sheffield, if Mac Allister did not score a 2 - 1 from a distant shot for Liverpool, who knows how that match would have ended. If in one of last 8 matches, they won't have a savior who can help them to win a match, they can see Arsenal equalizing the 2 points difference or worse if they lose one match, Arsenal will take over the first position. Liverpool actually have good advantage and good form too but they still have many things to do to win Premier League after next 8 matches. Do not also forget that, Arsenal too can be unlucky with the remaining games they have, I'm saying so because the uncertainty is on both sides not only Liverpool, moreover Liverpool have lesser opponents with which they can confidently win outside that of Manchester United which i feel is one obstacles they must surmount before we start to consider the other games coming. I agree with you to some extent that one bad match can upturn the entire table, I'm considering the fact that Liverpool are more advantageous at this point in time than the two other contenders. |

They still have eight more games to go for the title, which is a difficult process with City and Arsenal right behind them.
True it is difficult, but Liverpool have the advantage, it is in their hands; if they will all of their remaining EPL games, they would be Premier league champions, of course City are Arsenal are going to keep on breathing down their necks, but they would need other teams to do the job for them. All the remaining fixtures for Liverpool are games that they can win, so there is a very high chance that they are not going to drop points again. It would be an unbelievable farewell from the players to Klopp, if they are to win the league. I agree that Liverpool has the chance to win the Premier League trophy this season if Manchester City and Arsenal drop points, respectively, in the Premier League. Liverpool cannot win all their remaining fixtures in the Premier League because they have five away matches, and they cannot win these five away matches. And in these five away matches, the home team can likely beat or draw with Liverpool. I'm already seeing Liverpool with the trophy this, because they might actually win those five away games, because Liverpool has that capacity, though they still have Manchester United to play on Sunday which might actually be a tough one for Liverpool considering their last experience during the FA cup game, where United came out victorious. However I feel since this is the premier League, Liverpool will definitely want to come out with all the missiles they have. If they come out victorious against Manchester United on Sunday, then there vision to left the trophy will become glaring. |

If they want to maintain their performance next season then Leverkusen should try to add depth to their squad because they will be playing in the Champions League. The decision to stay is much better than leaving too quickly to take charge of another team because Xabi Alonso needs to prove his quality as a coach. Playing in the Champions League will mean that Xabi needs several quality players because the matches there will be much different from the Bundesliga.
Next season will be a real challenge for Leverkusen. They will play in the Champions League and that is a high level competition. Xabi must be able to rotate players and add variations to match tactics. I think club management will give Xabi a budget to find the players he wants. And for tactics I think if you play at a level like the Champions League you really need a variety of tactics because strong teams from other leagues will look for your weaknesses. And if they find your weaknesses then the teams in the domestic league will also find out your tactical weaknesses if you lack tactics. The next challenge is that Bayern Munich will be better prepared for Leverkusen. I'm sure this season they really didn't expect Leverkusen to be a problem for them. And they definitely won't let that happen again next season. I think Xabi Alonso should be allowed to choose the kind of players he wants in his squad and shouldn't be pressured into recruiting big players just because he would be playing in the champions league come next season. He has already proven himself as a good coach by doing what he has done this season with the Leverkusen side, so I don't think anyone is doubting his technical abilities. Xabi Alonso has agreed to continue with Bayern Leverkusen next season despite having several clubs like real madrid, Liverpool and other European elite club wanting to employ him come next season, without any oarta of doubt. I think Bayern Leverkusen are gonna do well in both domestic and European completion as long as they have their coach with them next season. |

Manchester City played the games they wanted today in a magnificent way and victory was inevitable. They inflicted a heavy defeat on fourth-placed Aston Villa by scoring four goals.
The match started with high heat for both teams, with mutual goals being exchanged, but with the goals scored by Foden, Manchester City had a good victory this week. The same day was a smooth day for Arsenal. The race for top positions continues with small points gaps.
Foden scored a hat trick in this match and became a hero for Man City in this match. And what we can conclude from this match is that Man City is not completely dependent on Haaland and De Bruyne. Because even when Haaland and De Bruyne are not playing, we can see that Man City remains a strong squad and is difficult to beat. Aston Villa really lost badly in that match. And I understand the strategy that Pep uses in rotating players and making their core players not get too tired amidst the busy schedule they have. If we look at Man City as it is now, it seems that optimism towards Man City in the UCL will also increase again. It's actually true that Manchester city is still a very formidable side wether Erling halaand and kelvin de bruyne plays or not but I really do think that is only applied on the lower opposition, no disrespect to Aston villa, but the are not a top side, in as much as they are fourth in the table, if am not mistaken, and Manchester city have what it takes in their ranks to put away team like Aston villa regardless of the presence of haaland or kelvin de bruyne. But against the bigger boys, they actually need the bigger players like kelvin de bruyne and Erling halaand for the bigger occasions, and of a truth, they will definitely struggle against the bigger teams especially when those players are absent, though it's a very moral busting win, which they will take into their fixtures against real madrid. An astonishing night for Phil foden and his colleagues who didn't leave any stone unturned until they have totally overpowered the Aston villa side, though Manchester city got off to a shaky start after scoring so early into first half of the game and later conceding a goal in the same half, but in the second half of the game it was Manchester city that dominated all the way to thereby making Aston villa look helpless as Phil foden couldn't help but display his goal scoring prowess by netting a super hatric on the night and sending a message to the to real madrid whom they will clash with in the UEFA champions league quarter finals first leg. Manchester city are contending for both the champions League and the premiership and at such cannot compromise their standards at the moment because any bad result may truncate their chances of ending the season with a trophy. |

So I happened to watch a UFC related movie yesterday and the main character is a very strong one who never loses a fight but during a fight he decided to lose the fight, I found out that he did it intentionally because his uncle and his uncle's friend bet a lot on the biggest odd, which is the other fighter.
He lost the fight and he still made a lot of money from his uncle and his uncle's friend, how brilliant? Since they use a large amount and also on the biggest odd, but I think about the other gamblers who chose to bet on him because there was assurance that he would win the fight.
Now I started to think about the real life UFC, maybe this is even happening underground and we don't know? Jake and Mike Tyson's upcoming fight for example is gearing up, many believe that Mike will win, but maybe something like this will happen?
Many gamblers are placing bets on this fighter since its more reliable than you against the casino games, this is all about agility and skills, but the possibility of intent loss to make more money is also possible in this game, what's your take on this?
This doesn't happen only in boxing, most sport are into it, where the big guy looses intentionally and in turn get good money's from the high odds of him losing, in football some years back, juventus FC in Italy where facing some sanctions for match fixing. So they do fix some of this big event, we might not know but if you dig deeper you will find of some cases that where found to be true. The game between Tyson and Jake, I'm not sure if they will actually let that fight happen, mike Tyson is 57 and Jake Paul is around 27 there is a high level of mismatch with their age difference, which I feel the organizers might not want it to happen however if it does happen then it will not be as aggressive as we would have wanted. |

Of recent time the world economies have been having problem, from economic recession to losing of jobs, to high inflation rate in the prices of goods and services etc they are all pointers that the economies of the world are currently not in a good shape
So this lead me to be thinking about the word economy and what and what is actually responsible for an economy to grow and what are the economic stimulant
The world economy is made up of the economies of many nations. Most national economies are interconnected and a problem in one affects others negatively. The European and US economy is closely related because these nations have good diplomatic relationships. So when economies of nations is sound, the global economy will experience growth. Nevertheless, what boasts a nation's economy is more exports and fewer imports which lead to favourable balance of payments. When a nation has enough industries, most of its citizens will be employed and the country will be able to earn enough foreign currencies to defend the local currency. The level of education of the population of the nation also determines economic growth. A nation that can boast of quality skilled manpower will always be innovative and creative. The nation will be able to have many small-scale businesses that will create job opportunities. This is why the biggest problem of developing nations is the high rate of illiteracy. Adequate infrastructure is another agent of economic development. Any nation that lacks good roads, security, constant power supply, and so on will not attract investors. And lack of investors will not make the nation a prosperous one. Lastly, sound economic policies and transparency in government are other determinants of economic stimulants. Some nations have policies such as double or high taxation that can discourage investment. Corruption in government is also another reason why some nations are not economically strong. I certainly agree with your assertion, if a country has good infrastructure in place, like steady supply of electricity, it will help stabilise the state's economy. Educated population too it's an added advantage to some of these things, most first world countries have citizen's that are highly educated, thereby increasing the literacy rate and thereby reducing a number of people that cannot function or contribute ideally to build a society. So there is a whole lot of things to be done by the government of those countries that are going into economic turbulence to stimulate their economic growth, because most countries that have infrastructure, and many social amenities and high level of productive capacity in places, have a lesser impact of any economic turbulence, unlike the developing nation's that are still struggling to build infrastructure. So to stimulate the economy of any country you have to put some certain things in place like electricity, economy accountability of tax revenue, and high level of infrastructure like good roads and bridges for easy navigation of goods and services. |
