Is it good to store for a long term ?
It's all good so long as the device in which the wallet software is installed is secure, airgapped, and you have good seed phrase back up practices like avoiding copying and pasting the seed, avoiding cloud storage etc. You won't even see the need to buy a hardware wallet.

Although I don't use electrum wallet, but it comes highly recommended as one of the trusted wallets that has many features, and i haven't heard any negative remarks from it's users that I know. Considering the advice that you've given, I think that it'll be safe to hold your Bitcoin, on the long term in an electrum wallet.

Though I use electrum wallet to store my bitcoins but since you said you've not used it before and considering the facts that you liked it based on remarks from others but I advice that if someone recommend you on something or gives a remark about something, you give it a try on your own to be sure if actually it works the way they recommended it so that you can be more confident when referring it to others or when giving credits to such assertion.

Inasmuch as I don't believe in Miracles of getting money I didn't work for, I can say that this amount is too huge for someone to get from airdrops or lottery but notwithstanding that if such Miracle occur to me what I will just do is to build a school, employ the services of experienced and reputable teachers and start running a school as Director because I'm so much concerned on our children attaining a high level of education.

It's very unfortunate that education isn't really given the right attention it requires as the social and fundamental well being of the society is dependent on the kind of knowledge we are able to pass to the next generation. So it is our duty to create an environment whereby almost every citizen in the country attain the best education that can project them to achieving their dreams and goals.

Reality Check: Do you believe this is true?
"You can have anything you want if you are willing to give up the belief that you can’t have it." ~Robert Anthony
For me, it's time to try harder every day. I've always believed having a positive attitude is important, but had trouble focusing on results and deadlines. For you, do you believe you can have literally anything you want, starting with a positive attitude?

For me whatever thing one is doing in life you need to understand that as there are possibilities for what you want to do to come to reality, there are also uncertainty that are attached to it so one need to have a second plan should Incase what you're planning for didn't work out the way you expected but in whatever thing you're doing in life, there is need to be positive like have this positive believe that it will work out well for you even if it doesn't just remain positive as sometimes thinking negatively brings about fear and failure because when you feel you can't be able to achieve what you want then you will begin to entertain fear therefore you may not really be able to get what you want because you ain't positive.
805  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard about financing a gambler? on: December 13, 2023, 03:16:37 AM
Ever heard about financing a gambler? No I mean maybe there is a person who loses in gambling and borrows some money But in financing trading I hear it a lot. some high-yield investment program has a similar case like that.
But gambling is a different story in my opinion even tho there is person like that I don't want it tho.

But the last time I remember there is someone out of nowhere DM me in telegram and said that he is one of employees gambling company and he said to me "I can make you always win" he showed me but the website was total cap. and the chat deleted.

The reason why some persons finance a gambler sometimes is due to maybe he plays gamble and records winning most times then maybe he must have placed a bet and lost huge amount of money then someone who is aware that he wins a lot may just decide to give him funds in other to continue gambling with the belief that he's gonna win. Most times it doesn't turn out well as no matter how successful someone might claim they know gambling, there are also times they lose a lot but you won't know that, it's only when they win that they can let you know with the impression that you will see them as people that wins a lot.

Those gamblers that walks up to people in other to convince them that they're gonna win, if winning a bet is that easy I believe that person that walks up to you to convince you needs money as well and if they're so sure they would have taken a loan and stake the bet then after which they return the loan.
806  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling? on: December 13, 2023, 03:00:41 AM
I think most of us will definitely feel regret, but maybe not completely and only some of them are usually always excessive in their gambling involvement. Maybe now you have realized that your biggest mistake is when you put high hopes in a place that basically has no certainty and guarantee to always produce.

Yeah, a lot of persons at some point in time regretted why they knew gambling let's just be realistic especially at a time of losing conspicuously like almost every one feels really bad and regretful when you lose bets consecutively and running into more losses so no one will feel happy at that time basically be it that you play gambling for fun or you choose it as a means of income but moreover, I see no reason why someone will take gambling as a source of earning a living so just like you've said being too deep in gambling isn't advisable at All.
807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler takes his own life after a loss. on: December 13, 2023, 02:46:49 AM
I don't think there will be an amount that would make me commit suicide, not just in gambling but also in other financial matters like investment, or if somebody didn't pay me for a big amount borrowed, and so on. As a matter of fact, I see no reason why a person should commit suicide.

Anyway, this is one of the craziest reasons to take your own life. First, he should have known that this is gambling. He could win but he could also lose. Second, that's not even a very huge amount. Third, if he earned that amount before, he can earn it again, so why kill oneself?

Like I don't even understand why someone will take their life just because they lost a bet, this is the more reasons why I tell people to gamble as they can be able to endure and that gambling is a game of chance as anyone that wants to get involved in gambling should have it at the back of their mind that they may either win or lose so that should In case they lose it won't make them to run into depression. Just look at how a promising young man just ended his life just because of careless gambling now people will start pointing their fingers on gambling that it's bad when it is the individual that got involved in gambling and didn't take precautions.

Mbappe did scored the most goals in that team this season that's true, he does look like he is playing one of his best seasons, already at 15 goals and that's a huge deal, he may end up with 30 goals this season, and that wouldn't be shocking if he can stay healthy and play all the games. However, look at his asset numbers, it's nowhere to be found, why? Is it because he is a bad passer, or because he doesn't like to pass and wants to score?

Well, maybe that has something to do with this, and yes he may look to score more often than passing that's true, however most of the reason is because the entire PSG team is built in a way that their strategy relies on getting Mbappe to score, everyone else is just trying to find him and pass to him for a goal. That's the main reason why he scored so much.

Kylian Mbappe is a young vibrant player that has lots of experience in football more especially in goal scoring, and has helped PSG for quite some years now so he's a kind of player teams yearn to play in their squad, he's a unique player that when he isn't in the pitch of play his absence can easily be noticed and when he is on pitch his impact are also felt so he's still a promising young players with lots of tactics. Mbappe is a goal scoring machine so I believe he will still score lots of goals before the end of this season
809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: December 12, 2023, 10:24:17 PM
If we are gambling because we want luck, it will be a never ending argument on which one either we want luck or we just want to play to entertain ourselves. If we want luck, I think this the beginning of something like chasing the luck and we might end up overspending. 😅

Well for me gambling isn't all about luck because not every one are opportune to win bets so I just fell that sometimes winning bets is dependent on the kind of game that one is gambling with like there are some games that requires puzzles and calculations so if you follow the right instructions then you'll win and there are some that isn't too dependent on how you predicted it but just that you may be lucky it played without much stress being involved
810  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 12, 2023, 09:59:35 PM
Yeah actually I believe so because there is actually time for Manchester City to come back because even there last season performance they had similar challenges which make Arsenal to lead on there table for sometime and it was later Manchester City manages to peak form and beat Arsenal which make them to win the last year premier league.
Yeah I also have confidence in Manchester city to come back, since Aston villa which is in third position is just ahead of them with 2 points, Arsenal which is in second position is just ahead of them with 3 points and Liverpool is ahead of them with 4 points, the gap is still kind of small, and Manchester city should be able to cover up. Arsenal was leading Manchester City with reasonable points last season, but gradually Manchester City were able to cover up and they won the league last season, but this season won’t be a easy one for Manchester City, am not really satisfied with their performance yet, and this season will be a different one for Manchester City, because they won’t be able to win all the leagues Manchester City won last season.

That's your own Analysis but for me Liverpool wouldn't want to give up that top soon like they will fight with every energy they've got and I trust Jorgen Klopp as he's gonna make sure his boys will remain at the top of the league for sometimes if at all they will not utilize this great opportunity of topping the table and as well win the league at last. Your analysis about Manchester city last season may be correct but this season is more of competitive than last season so it may really not be easy to predict the title winners yet as the gaps between the top teams in the table ain't that much.

Quote from: Volgastallion
yes nobody expect this resilient Girona, they are very strong, is not easy to fight in the top of this tournament against 2 huge teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona, and plus one BIG like atletico madrid, and now they are fully comited, this last victory on Barcelona pitch was magic, and yes they have a bit of luck on that missed goal of Lewandwoski.
I don't think Girona will stay in that position for long before Real Madrid will take it back, but there is still time to know who will win this trophy because Barcelona coach is still planning to introduce some new tactics that will help the team to recover from their losses quickly before the end of the competition. But many people are saying Barcelona will not come close to first position and second position but as it stand now, the opportunity for them to take over the position from Girona has be activated which they will start displaying them in their next game.

Despite Barcelona loss in some games doesn't mean they are not capable to win this trophy because, many people thought that they will not win last season trophy until they begin to show some improvement that gave them the opportunity to achieved the trophy last season.

Well, every one is entitled to their own opinion but for me, Girona winning Barcelona is like a kind of ringing a bell to other club for them to know how strong Girona have become so at the point all eyes will be focused on Girona and some clubs will shiver when they meet Girona like this club has become so competitive that they can win any club without caring if they are bigger teams or not.

Even though PSV and Arsenal are certain to qualify for the round of 16, the match between PSV and Arsenal was exciting. And in this match, in my opinion, both teams have the same performance and squad, the current score in the first half, Arsenal has scored 1 goal against PSV.
Even though Arsenal had a slight lead in possession of the ball, PSV also fired 13 shots, and 3 of them were shots on goal. Meanwhile, Arsenal only fired 5 shots and 1 shot managed to score a goal, the goal was scored by Nketiah in the 42nd minute.
The match in the first half was quite tough, and in my opinion PSV had a chance to score a goal in the second half and Arsenal had to strengthen their defense and also take advantage of counter-attack moments to add goals.

The match has now entered the 70th minute with the score PSV 1 - 1 Arsenal, PSV managed to catch up with their score in the second half which was scored by Yorbe Vertessen, actually PSV still has a chance of failing to progress to the next round, but with 1 goal they have currently making their position safer with a difference of 1 point from Lens. FYI, Based on statistics, PSV has a bigger chance of winning in this match, of course it won't mean anything to them, but at least it will make their supporters happy and build their mentality for the next round.

Arsenal are already safe and have advanced to the next stage so there was need to stress much out in the match when they are about to face Brighton and Liverpool in Premier League soon. Arsenal did well given their lineup but I am sure Arsenal would have totally dominated the game if they had rolled out their first team faces for the match. PSV on other hand had to win the match or draw to qualify and they did. Yeah PSV had good stats and tried their hard but in the end they got what they wanted even though they got only 1 point out of it.

Arsenal earning a draw against PSV is the best option for them as they have more important matches to face in the EPL. Arsenal didn't take their match against PSV seriously because they have already qualified so they need to focus more on the task ahead of them because the group stages seems to be a little bit easier as the knockout stages will really be a though one because any team that fails to qualify goes home directly on like teams that dropped in the group stages and was transferred to Europa league.

UEFA Champions League group B match Arsenal vs PSV I think this match will be exciting. These two teams are currently in good position in the group stage, with Arsenal first and PSB second. That being said, we know Arsenal are a strong team, and they will certainly play well enough and attack well enough to take the win away from the opposition. And if Arsenal can't win today's match against PSV, then there is definitely a possibility that PSV will go to a good position in the points table. As they both teams are in good position so far, I think today's match is very important for both teams. And I am predicting between these two teams today that Arsenal will definitely win against PSV.

Well I see Arsenal winning PSV Eindhoven in this match in order for them to continue their good Champions league form this Season though since they've qualified for the knockout stages it may seems as if they won't be taking this match against PSV seriously but they will play to win and with the fact that they lost their league match on Saturday night will make the club to work hard to win PSV so that they won't record Consecutive losses.

The sacking of coaches can boost a club in playing good football because every player will want to improve and impress the new coach to have playing time. There is nothing to be patient with Erik Ten Hag because the Manchester United board has backed him with enough money to sign quality players, but Erik Ten Hag ended up signing players who are not helping Manchester United win matches.
Ten Hag deserves more time at Manchester United to prove himself. He came in last season and finished in the top 4. He won silverware for the club. Yes he bought players he thought was good but it didn't turn out the way he expected, not all market turn out well. He should be given more time to show his working.
Honestly Erik ten Hag has gotten enough time to turn things around for good at Man Utd, he had so far signed 16 players loan and permanent players yet the club hasn't achieve their great status due to their inconsistency in the team performance, majority of his new signings had flopped, the likes of Onana, Antony, Mason Mount, Lisandro Martínez and Tyrell Malacia hadn't perform as expected despite huge sign on paid to secure their services except Casimero, Eriksen and Rasmus Højlund who had proven their worth but injury problems had reduced their impact in the team, Rashford, Martial had lost form, while Sancho who ought have help the team is not in the good book of Erik ten Hag, I think the manager had all the time at his disposal to up the team game or performance yet not yielding any  positive results.

I have said it already that united needs a coach that can adapt to the way the club plays their football like every team have a way they play that suits the club standard so if united can get such a coach then they will make a lot of difference and their form will change. It's just quite unfortunate that since Sir Alex Ferguson exit Manchester united hasn't been able to lift a major trophy apart from 2017 when Jose Mourinho helped the club win the EUFA Europa league trophy.
817  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: December 12, 2023, 12:41:31 PM
I hope Girona can learn a lot from previous teams, who were in the same situation as them. Maybe most recently they can look at Sevilla who were promising at the time, but they lost their competitive spirit too, because over time they also experienced a decline.
Many lessons can be taken from what I said above, they can learn why in the end the team that at the beginning of the season can compete but when entering the middle of the season until the end of the season they actually lose balance. After beating Barcelona, it will increase their confidence even more, but don't let them get carried away with it. What they have to do is think about how they can maintain it and even improve it.
At the moment looking at the current situation for Girona, they just need to believe in themselves and do what they can to continue to be as consistent as they are.

Honestly looking at Girona at the moment I think this is beyond everyone's expectations because their performance has jumped dramatically which is just an ordinary club that has even been relegated several times but in the last 2 seasons they have actually shown a very different strength and the increase in performance is very good.
Indeed for the previous season they were not very visible because they only struggled in the midtable when they were promoted (after previously being relegated) but now we can see different developments for Girona and this is what makes them different. They're the surprise of the season and it would be a shame if they end up disappearing in the middle or end of the season especially after beating Barcelona last week Ive got high expectation for this club. 

Girona have really gained relevance in the Spanish la Liga this season and should they continue in this awesome performance then they will go far in the league. Girona being in the mid table last season was a huge achievement for the club considering the fact that they were newly promoted club and to finish in the mid table so I don't see them as not being visible last season

819  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why most beginners so much believe bitcoin can make rich on: December 10, 2023, 07:55:08 AM
What make people so much believe that immediately they just buy bitcoin they will become rich, like I was  just thinking about this, if people think the bitcoin you buy will bring more bitcoin just like that.if bitcoin should be something that only brings profits I doubt if it will be still existing today. It would have ended just like other ponzi schemes that placed over the years.  

The way some people think about bitcoin they feel too comfortable and so relax as if life is so easy like money can be achieved with no form of work. Investors gain profits from Bitcoin because they worked for it, they had patience with the up and down of the market,  This is not an easy work that anybody with no understanding can achieve from bitcoin.

Well you are right because no investor wants to lose though they do lose at times but in anything one is doing in life you need to be positive regardless of obstacles that might come along the line you need to remain focused and determined before you can attain great results. One of the things that's taking some persons that would have made a headway is impatient, like you can't be able to take your eyes off your investment for a long time before you start reaping the dividends that comes along with it.

Bitcoin investment requires a long interval of time before you can see the proceeds of your investment so I see nothing bad if someone buys Bitcoin and feel so relaxed about it. Okay let's take for instance someone who bought Bitcoin when the price was still $27,000 and is watching his investment growing gradually now ain't you gonna be happy and excited?

Our major challenge in this life is fear, like you begin to feel that what if you invest and lose at the end so the fear of failure has been taking so many persons backward. The only advice that should be given to an investor is not to invest all his income because if things doesn't really go the way they expected they might run into emotional trauma.

Bitcoin investment is far from being a ponzi scheme because when you invest in Bitcoin you will see how the market is going and know when you're making profits or incurring losses unlike ponzi schemes that is very fraudulent because what they basically do in a ponzi scheme is just to rotate people's investment and after which they've witnessed a large number of investors the system eventually crashes.

For me making it in the life is just getting the right connection and just like you said sitting in one place may not really be good as a man like you need to go out maybe events or social places, meet new people make new friends as this can also be a way of attaining the right information that would be useful to you because you might be lucky to meet someone that can unleash some secrets and information of making money in legit ways, if possible attend some entrepreneurs seminars, read books from successful entrepreneurs by so doing you're developing your mindset towards achieving your goals.

We are in a digitized world now, almost everything is going digital so we need to make sure that we get the real update about things that's happening around us so that we won't be left behind. Another is for those of us that have connections and links should help others with the rightful information they need as there is joy seeing that you're the only one being successful why others meet you for money or help all the time what makes you a boss is your ability to lift others and show them the way to become successful just like you.
