What's your target from now till the year ends or you don't have any, I can't mention the perfect strategy you should use cause I'm not perfect to teach others and it take time to be perfect. The word professional trader you mentioned don't just come easy and it takes time so I will advice you to be Patience with your learning and it  has to do with dedication and sacrifice to be perfect, when I mean sacrifice I'm talking about your money and emotions, you should learn to control your emotions when trading so you don't have to back off all the time, I will advice you sign up for online classes to know more  about the trading term.

That's how things are done in my locality and it doesn't has to be an application for a job but it has been for long and this has caused a lot of problem in today society, the fact you used job as an example doesn't necessary mean it has to do with employment only, if you observe carefully in some areas ladies don't have equal right as men do, when I mean equal right I'm referring to the things women have less privilege to do like contesting for a governorship election etc.
Although no one can really tell why things are done like that. since you made employment as a reference, if the work requires human strength then ladies should not get involved like some work need strength and if the person is not fit then there's no need for an opportunity, and you didn't mention the kind of job so I can't give any reason why the lady didn't get the job.

Apart from that, if they are beginners, they should not be too selfish to buy aggressively because they need to strengthen their mentality when the price of Bitcoin changes suddenly. Because beginners often panic when prices fall because they are not experienced enough to deal with situations when prices fall drastically. For that reason, I agree with all the points which deserve to be a priority for us in accumulating Bitcoin for long-term investment.

I doubt that the justification for being aggressive has to do with whether someone is a beginner or not, and maybe the beginner has to be more careful about his level of aggressiveness, and since presumptively he would be in the earlier stages of learning about his investment, but as the person gets more and more systems in place and learns about his investment (and his cashflow situation) he thereby would be in a better position to increase his aggressiveness level.
I understand your point sir, the aggressive situation when dealing with bitcoin investment for beginners is not advisable and if focusing on buying only and forgetting to learn at that early stage the person might end up with another story, sometimes newbies focus more on buying aggressively cause of the profit and wanting to reach their target, although it's best for everyone to have a target when investing but not without  the investment knowledge, for example when I bought my first coin I started with just a little amount and as times goes each week I keep increasing gradually.
In terms of learning about investment this forum is the best place to learn about bitcoin and investing just like I have benefited more from other members in the forum concerning investing.
664  Economy / Economics / Re: 4 COMMON MISTAKES PEOPLE MADE WITH THEIR FINANCES IN THE PAST YEARS on: January 18, 2024, 08:54:16 AM
Most of the mistake have seen people make is overspending and emergency funds mostly lack of emergency funds, sometimes people don't intentionally spend and forgetting to save but due to expenses of family needs and other things make people spend their money and in a situation where the salary is not enough to take care of the family and the current economy can hinder saving for emergency purpose, in this situation multi task will be the best for such person like if you settled for less last year it's best to work for more this year to avoid such mistake, multi working choice is just the best and this is where investment can be introduced to such person.
Overspending is just too common and sometimes you feel like your friends spend same amount but the work and pay differs so from my observation a lot of people spend their money due to influence from friends, my best opinion this year for everyone never settle for less.
665  Economy / Economics / Re: Women are more economical than men. on: January 18, 2024, 08:32:30 AM
We had this argument where I was the opinion that most men spend money on things that they are obligated to and cannot control it at times due to responsibilities, men are used to spending money already and because of being used to it, they can find it hard to be as economical as women can be. Do you agree with this unpopular opinion that women are more economical when it comes to money and are able to manage themselves and their homes better than men do?

The reason women are better at managing their finances than men is that they don't have as many bills to pay. Even if a woman is wealthy, if her husband is alive, she will still ask him for money before making any purchases. Similarly, if a bill needs to be paid for anything around the house, she will take it up with him. Men are never free from bills unless they pass away. Women are ignorant of the importance of purchasing fashion items like jewellery, clothes, and shoes, and they still need to ask men for money in order to purchase those items because we are the ones who agree to assume responsibility. Therefore, I don't think it's appropriate for us to even compare ourselves to women because our levels of time expenditure differ.
I don't know your view towards all women but you're wrong and why generalizing the jewellery and fancy stuffs, sometimes you speak due to experience and no doubt most ladies behave like this, have you come across an independent lady?, have seen many and I can testify not all girls behave like this, I don't see any need comparing both gender tho but in this situation women are more economical than men and if a lady keep aside those jewellery stuffs to save or invest you'll know why women are more economical than men. Using house needs and bills sounds funny cause ladies also support when it comes to family affairs if only she's working, the kind of girls you're referring to are not married that's why they get carried with fancy stuffs.
Some men too can spend carelessly with or without any bills and that's why a lot of young boys could not hold their investment, the issue with spending carelessly should not be addressed on gender but choice, that's why both boys and girls can be spotted spending carelessly
666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 17, 2024, 10:14:29 PM
I think other teams have already taken over, and Arsenal coming back will be somehow late to me because for Arsenal to be topping the standings for the first time and the early season was a very good achievement for them, so unfortunately, Arsenal performance started declining and they are now in the top 4. Furthermore, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Aston Villa are ahead of Arsenal, so therefore, I don't think these teams I mentioned will allow Arsenal to overtake them in the standings even if Arsenal goes back to the top 3, but they can’t get the first position again.

Manchester City are now back in form since Kelvin De bryune returned from injury, and some other key players performances have been boosted since then, which I don’t even think Arsenal will take over from Liverpool. Although I won’t confidently guarantee Manchester City, for Arsenal to get back, they need a very good manager who is smarter than Arteta because, with all indications, he is still misusing some talented players in the squad.

Arsenal always continue to make their supporters sad by doing this. I don't know maybe having a really young team is also a factor but still they should be able to do better than this normally. Arteta will need to work more on this problem to fix it as much as possible. Otherwise we will probably see them out of the title race before even the final weeks of the season.  Sad

I really want to see Arsenal winning the league title but they can't do it like this. Manchester City and Liverpool have a much bigger potential at the moment. For now I believe one of them will make it too but hopefully it can be Liverpool to see a different champion this season.
I thought Arsenal will defeat Liverpool at Emirates stadium but it never worked and after the training they continue playing something different cause I've watched them train like twice this season, I don't know what's wrong cause from top now they're fourth and if care is not taken they'll not go far with this kind of energy, Arteta need to change the starters and hopefully I really want to see Trossard start not Havertz the reason why I said so is because the matches ahead of them looks tough and after playing crystal palace they have Nottm Forest and Liverpool to face so Arteta and his boys should not joke over this match. Honestly speaking I want to see Arsenal playing as the tittle contender and if possible they should win cause I'm tired seeing Manchester city winning all the time and Liverpool at the other hand is not joking, there's no point putting all hope on Arsenal for now due to their poor performance

If I'm not mistaking we've debated about skill and education before, the common mistake wey people dey make them dey choose one and condemn the other like choosing skill then forgetting about education, I don't blame people with this idea because naso we see the country and sometimes the price of school fees dey discourage people wey get the aim to go school so they decided to learn hand work, I never know why some people dey discriminate education for naija but some educated people still get job but it's very rare, even with job or no job education is power and the skill you mentioned na dey help plenty people for this country, the part you mentioned about skill and job I never hear anything like that, if I may ask which kind skill wey employee need wey graduate no fit offer  and mostly computer skill wey you fit learn for school and attending online class. With better skill you no need to wait for employment cause you fit start with any little capital na why people dey choose skill but for me I go like the both and na wetin people dey do, if doubting ask people around they will tell you they're graduates.

Sometimes no be only hunger but as na humans we be something unexpected fit come wey go need money and without money that problem no fit solve and you go like use your investment money na why no be only steady money but when the money come no use all invest at least keep some to settle different problems. This thing wey you talk na true no be only Patience we need, we need both funds and Patience to succeed because when money dey you no go too focus for the investment and it's very important to have something doing before investing to enjoy the investment.
669  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why people dey fear to invest in Bitcoin and crypto? on: January 17, 2024, 07:48:27 PM
Many people just get this belief say since nah wetin concern internet them no fit do anything called investment, unknowing to them that is the best place to invest on.
Even my uncle's saw it as a scamming thing, but they never knew it's the best place you can save any amount of your income in life.
And still have access to your money at anytime you need  access to your investment. You all should invest online and see how your life will change for good.
Normally Bitcoin investment dey good but make that one no make you think say the Internet nah your best friend, as we all done already hear am before say police nah your best friend and them dey do the otherwise, nah so the internet way me and you self dey.
The Internet just dey like police officers way be say any moment person fit just scam you under 10 seconds and Nigerian polos own be say them fit just arrest you for no reasonable reasons, nai make I say the Internet and the police officers they are like the one.
Although, those that are using the Internet should be more careful because anything can happen at anytime if only they are not careful.
Some people, if they starts making small money from the Internet they will start thinking that the Internet is safe for them, but it is not.
You fit confirm say people wey dey fall into the hands of scammers for internet no wise, the internet na place wey big and people dey make money from internet and some dey lose money for internet, e just depend on how you use your money and the end result will tell, secondly police and internet get big difference, just because the op say internet na our friend no mean say we go fall mugu and if you understand the op well you go know wetin the person dey try talk, the fact be say people dey say anything associated with the internet na scam and them dey carry put for bitcoin sef because them no understand the use of bitcoin, the internet no dey save because of how the person keep he/her money, you no fit spread your inform then you expect people to look you go scot free. I no get problem with people wey dey call the internet scam and other names cause no matter how you convince people them  go still think wetin them want due to their past experience but make them no call bitcoin scam.

The part you said financing the business is very important likewise investment, any investment/business that lack regular finance might likely fall mostly in the business sector when every marketer seems to be competing, concerning the risk, there's no risk free investment and every investment has an advantage and disadvantage in other words any investor that lack the ability to secure his/her investment will not make any profit, considering the type of business and investment before investment matters a lot like making a research before investing so you can have full confidence with the investment not minding the risk involve. Now in the crypto investment a lot of people just jump into investing without knowing the coin and the potential, before choosing any business or investment it's best to make research before investing, this is common in the business sector also and they lack where and when to sell a particular goods.

672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 16, 2024, 02:05:25 PM
The return of K. De Bruyne has had a huge impact on Man City. Even Man City's attack line has become sharp again thanks to the presence of De Bruyne on the field. I think Man City is lucky to have this player. Because even though he was absent for quite a long time, now he is starting to contribute well again when he returns. The title is not impossible for Man City. The problem is just waiting for Liverpool to make a mistake.
So far Kevin made good impacts with his return for Manchester City and brings a lot of expectation that he will make more and bigger impacts in coming months. This is only expectation with an assumption that Kevin will not get injured in future. If his body is well, with his skills and talent, he will surely contribute big things for Manchester City not only in Premier League but also in Champions League.

Will he be well or get injured is a very big uncertainty for him and Manchester City. As a Premier League fan, I wish best for Kevin because with it, the title race between Manchester City and Liverpool will be more exciting.
Kevin has always been the best for long and his return got people wondering if he still got the skills but I knew Kevin will come back strong, I think pep knew Kevin return will be so good that's why he didn't panic when they didn't perform good and now Kevin is back I believe every team will feel the impact, the match against Newcastle shows  that Manchester city might take the title but let's not judge yet cause even with Kevin and his performance the team can still go down if they fail to play and work as one.
Talking about another injury sounds funny cause I don't think Bruyne will experience another injury sooner or later, although some players suffer from such experience after their first or second injury but I believe Bruyne case will be different, let's just imagine if Bruyne experience another injury can the team stand strong or they'll keep playing each matchday without a win, just asking cause I observed their performance against Newcastle and everyone worked hard not just Bruyne but the reason why everyone is talking about Bruyne right now is because of his performance and he just got back from an injury and he managed to score a goal.

Firstly government can't regulate betting because them dey take tax from each win so they can't regulate betting, secondly na people business so e no even sound nice to reduce the population of betting wey those shop owners dey benefit from, na them dey bet wrongly and na them go face the consequences cause this betting of a thing dey drain people when it comes to financial matters.
The example wey you set, hardly you see normal person dey enter betting shop regular likee the person no even get work and the person no ready to find work. All this mistake na some people dey do and them go dey paint gambling black for outside, bet what you can afford to lose and make betting no be your regular work or habit, people like this need advice but them no go learn because them don turn to addict.
674  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Things you see in the society on: January 15, 2024, 04:34:39 PM
Everyone has the right to make decisions and no one can forcefully condition you to disrespect your own decision, you used religion as an example but most people in some areas can't make decisions freely concerning region and the worst part is the hate speech we hear everyday and there's no way one can fight against hate speech cause the number of people that get involved in hate speech is just too much, if you don't like their believe or way of worship why judging them, why not mind your business rather doing the opposite.
If we can stop this thing called hate speech in this society and learn to love everyone regardless their tribe, religion, etc, it's will be safe for very one. Peer pressure at the other hand can be dealt with among young ones if only they're willing to change and the care and love to change such people is needed and stop critizing them, people who suffer from peer pressure and bad influence need help and not criticism.
675  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How to stop noise pollution? on: January 15, 2024, 04:07:26 PM
I don't think noise pollution can be completed stopped or eliminated, but it can only be reduced to the barest minimum.
This can be achieved when existing laws against noise pollution are enforced.
But how can a law be enforced when the enforcers are the ones in the forefront of breaking these laws.
 

I believe you have got some small misunderstanding on what noise pollution is, to be honest. Noise pollution is not supposed to be fought by completely getting rid of all noise possible, what would not make sense, because there is no society organized enough to get rid of such thing.
Fighting noise pollution is about getting standards and adjust our society to them as much as possible so people who live close to each other won't get bothered by the noise made by neighbors or people in the streets.
Obviously, enforcing laws is an important part of reaching those objectives, even though I have got the impression there is way more people polluting than available law enforcement officers out there.
You're right, no one can get rid of noise pollution totally and we are talking about humans and the society not animals, i don't think enforcing laws will stop noise pollution and even with other laws everyone still make their decision and forgetting about the consequences, I don't know the kind of noise the op is referring to but I consider unpleasant noise as a very bad one and sometimes when we find ourselves in areas like this we can't leave cause this noise can take place in our working place, home etc.
With this kind of noise it's best to report such person for safety reasons. The work of those officers, they're met to take actions and make things right so if you find such people that always love to create unpleasant noise it's best reporting them to the law officer, but whereby you want to whole world to stop noise pollution it's impossible.
676  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial education and why it should be a priority. on: January 15, 2024, 01:04:28 PM
I think people should be thought on how to make money like learn new skills to be independent, teaching young children creative ideas about craft, computer science etc will be more better, if you're referring to secondary schools then skill acquisition will be best for them and talking about financial management, it's best introducing such to little children but I see no use cause at that stage they lack the experience of holding money and if such kids don't own money what's the point teaching them about financial management, let them learn how to make money using different method first before introducing financial management, for example my state government introduced a programme for secondary school students to learn different kinds of skills like baking, sewing etc. Financial education should be necessary for everyone regardless the economy situation and even if people fail to learn on their own they'll still experience insufficient funds and at this state when money is not enough you will have to work hard again and continually the person will grow and spend wisely, some people need to learn about financial management with their experience.
677  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / No more charges: Nigerian bank offers customers free tranfers on: January 15, 2024, 11:08:57 AM
I came across this news last night concerning the new Airtel Africa smartcash payment service bank that just started operating, the smartcash payment service has offered free transfer to Access, Zenith, UBA etc. I was surprised to see the news and it seems the offer will not stand for long and they just want their customers to enjoy the free transfer that's why they offered such.
Seeing the CBN transaction fee, #10 fee is for 5,000 etc. Remember that in bitcoin transaction you must pay a transaction fee and the fee dey high for now but now the local banks are making transaction free, seeing this free transaction offer sounds misleading for newbies that just started investing newly and some dey complain about the fee.
The fintech bank dey really try for Nigerians cause have seen another information in this board concerning Opay and their 15% annual profit. With all this kind of offers some people go quickly dump their investment then focus on the free transaction with their local banks, I'm not saying the free transaction is bad because we too dey part of the free transaction stuff but make e no stop some people from buying bitcoin, regardless the free transaction fee make we still focus on bitcoin because naira no get value and naira and bitcoin no fit compete.
In your own opinion what do you think about this move?
678  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Premier League 2023/2024 Discussion Thread ⚽ on: January 14, 2024, 10:20:28 PM
Aston Villa missed a big chance to hold a good lead over their rivals but playing out a no Goal draw to Everton today, I think this wasn't an easy match but I still expected Aston Villa to beat Everton seeing how both teams has played this season I had my money on Everton to win but this is football, now this gives Manchester city and Arsenal a bigger push to take advantage of this slip up.

I think Aston Villa major issue this period would be consistency, they have been good so far this season but they still have to make it to the finish line in the same manner.

I honestly expected Aston Villa to actually win against Everton. After all Aston Villa is really fighting to stay as much at the top as possible. Meanwhile, Everton is literally fighting to stay out of the relegation zone. So, I thought Aston Villa was going to win this match pretty easily. But of course, I was wrong. Though I have to say Aston Villa was able to dominate the match. However, they were not able to win. I also think that this might very well be the start of their inconsistency. Not unexpected for them to be really consistent. But I honestly did think that probably they will be able to bring in really good results. Which is still definitely possible. But not if they are inconsistent.
Aston Villa will not even go far and just like what you said this will mark the beginning of inconsistence winning and I never expected the team to move forward till this time, they tried their best but still the title competition is just too hot for Aston Villa to fit in and looking at this year title top contender Manchester city will definitely be at the top and I still don't believe Liverpool for now, even with their excellent performance I still doubt if they can compete for long, now seeing KDB return shows it's finish, and I saw the return of Timber last week but I still don't know if he can change the current performance of the team except the team work united and effortlessly to win and I still doubt if Arsenal can make it cause last season was their season and they could not win the title so what's the point hoping on Arsenal but I still want the team to change cause I actually want Arsenal to defend for the title if possible and under probability.

I'm just wondering what the guy want to share like why asking for a screenshot before teaching them what to do and if i may ask teach them what?, people replying to offers like this don't even know the system and they don't know how things works, that's why it's best to learn about crypto or bitcoin in a safe place like this forum, where you get your first knowledge matters alot and people interested in this kind of offer need to learn about bitcoin and after learning no one will even tell them to secure their coins but they already know what to do.
I often see people like this claiming to know but they have a very bad motive and unknowingly to people they want more money, I don't think anyone with the knowledge of bitcoin will fall for this and if you check his page carefully you will find out he's into crypto scam and his trick sounds so stupid.
680  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should trading be for the rich? on: January 13, 2024, 06:39:05 PM
It's not all about rich and poor the main issue is you should be financial ready to trade and not the kind of trade you trade and you still lack money, people with the knowledge and no money there's always chance to work and earn then come back to trade and that's what every one does, it just depend if the person is interested to trade after earning.
I think this is one of the strategy wealthy men use and they focus less on the market but when it comes to the ones that can't afford regular money to trade they always find it difficult and scared not to loss, in my opinion you can always work to earn and come back to trade.
