Questions like this has popped out in several occasions and arguments concerning Bitcoin investment. My friends will say you must lose before you gain or rather have more experience investing in Bitcoin. If its how it work, Bitcoin isn't for a low income earner as well as not gonna make you rich when you can't invest something tangible to it. On the other hand people are been made big and wealthy in same program. What does it in tell, cos am quite sure people had already known what's going to happen in the market in the nearest future to give them the strong mindset to invest porously. My biggest fear is losing my hard earn to something as volatile, vulnerable and uncertain as btc. What's the possibility you invest without losing. Is it guaranteed in this kinda market?
Going by your post title: No you mustn't lose but it's an inevitable aspect of crypto you should hold in mind when investing so you don't get fumed by FUD,s in the future not to make hasty wrong  decisions about your investment. There are investors that started with a profiting foot that's just their luck but one thing I understand about bitcoin is that you just don't lose, you don't at all I'm as much as it's a long term investment plan you have set in place for yours.
Bitcoin may be volatile but it's ain't vulnerable and as for guarantee your chances of making profit is 3x bigger than that of making a loss if it's for omg term.
Every financial investment involves risk. No one can ever say that he will get sure profit from his investment. But who will invest by taking this risk will face profit or loss by the investment. As Bitcoin is the most volatile currency and has high value, an investor has to take the highest risk and gain adequate knowledge otherwise the chances of losing are high. But it cannot be said that everyone who invests will lose. Even if a person has relatively less knowledge, if he invests in Bitcoin right now for long term, he may not face loss. Everyone who want to invest in trading business must be prepared to lose. Moreover, I will never say loss in the case of those who will lose at the beginner level, it can also be called a type of investment.
Yes there's no sure investment for profit making only as risk is usually involved in any investment but there are a number of things you can invest in which the probability of getting profit in the end is very large with a slim chances of making a loss and bitcoin is one of such things to invest in. There are several other cryptocurrencies that are of higher volatility than bitcoin for bitcoin isn't the most volatile cryptocurrency. What I can tell a newbie wanting to invest in bitcoin is that they should invest only amount of money they can afford to lose and have patience on without been tempted to withdraw out of FUDs.

Crypto investment vs real estate investment : Which one more dependable in the future
Though have been in the crypto space for quite some time now, I knew little about crypto. A friend of mine just introduced me to real estate investment.
Which one should I go for with a capital less than $2500?
This two field of investment real estate and cryptocurrency are  remunerative to delve in for investment but the former requires large amount of money to go into, the $2500 you have is nothing to start a real estate investment, it is for this reason I'll admonish you put the idea of the real estate in the future and invest that $2500 in bitcoin for long term investment if you can hodl for a two circle's you would be profitable by then to start somewhere meaningful in the real estate by then.

What new ignorant investors don't know is that you don't invest in bitcoin through a third party, in real sense bitcoin was created to eliminate anything third party involvement in our transactions. Cutting off the middle man who's the evil behind traditional banking system.  It's hard to bear losing our money but at least you have learnt through experience however, make sure to be doing your own research in this industry it will save you from further loss out if ignorance. Like they said if you think knowledge is too costly to attain then try ignorance.

There's no substantial reason why knowledge should be hidden or hoard when it can enlighten and awken the mindset of others and this is what this forum is all about passing knowledge from one person to another. If you're found in this forum for a period of one or two months more and you don't observe an improved changes to your knowledge about crypto and generally as it concerns financial decisions making then you have to examine yourself and make some adjustments.  
887  Economy / Economics / Re: When the world is evolving, follow the trend. on: December 29, 2023, 08:51:26 PM
OP
I can't understand the need for dynamism, and the promptness to adapt and accept new change, but We need to be careful so that we do not make changes or quickly jump into new trends that would leave us in regrets this is because not everything change or a new trend is good or will be of benefit to us. So whenever there's a new trend you always have to find out why the new trend has occurred and the benefits it will have to you and to others good or bad before making your decision to jump on the trend or not. Remember that the majority is not always right and before you join the majority you always have to have a good reason for joining them not just joining blindly like some others will.
Questioning the essence of dynamism is similar to question why development should take it course in human history. Going through human history we can see different historical epochs that changed and gave way to new erra, from hunting and gathering to agrarian society and on and on the  dynamism keeps taking place as society evolves, am sure there were people that opposed and question the need for the changes at each of the new rising epoch but eventually when the time was ripe the change took place and all adapted. What am saying is that question the need for a change in the dynamism of things in society won't stop the change from taking it course because development is inevitable.

palace ate playing like a troubled team they are not settled with the ball and it's making Chelsea play as if they are too good with the ball as Chelsea are always rushing them to gain much possession of the ball, though Chelsea later seem to be relaxed after scoring their goal.  Crystal palace all they have to do is to change the pattern of their game add a little confidence in holding the ball and making calm passes. With a 1:1 scoreline in the first half the chances are that crystal palace can make it through in getting more goals in the second half.

I watched the first half until the end and honestly Chelsea's game was very good and they deserved to close the first half with a win. But unfortunately, Chelsea conceded at the end of the first half by Michael Olise who was standing free without a guard in Chelsea's defense. Chelsea dominated the match, but it was a shame because they really wasted several good opportunities to increase their lead due to poor finishing. The temporary score is 1-1, but it looks like Chelsea can still win this match in the end.
When you are playing against team that's worst in form than you whatever less performance you are putting in the game will appear to be a good performance and this is exactly the what the Chelsea game against crystal palace was. There was no difference between what Chelsea played in other games they lost to the game against Crystal Palace. Poor tackling's, lack of passing accuracy,  and failing to make use of goal chances to achieve points in a match. At the end though they won the game 2:1 but it was out of a lucky outcome. All what am saying is that Chelsea as a team an improvement in the team should be consistent where they have to play in a current match much better than they did in previous giving us the fans an exciting result.

It's an overwhelming and a  shocking poor performance by Spurs tonight in that first half. It's high time the young players on the bench be giving a chance to prove capabilities and skills. The midfield and defense of Tottenham tonight is really lagging behind in this game getting out-runned  by the Brighton's players all of the time.  If it continues this way on the second half more goals will be conceded by Tottenham.
890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any fun in losing while gambling on: December 28, 2023, 07:27:11 PM
Over the time, I’ve seen several post, by users here who, claim that gambling is strictly for fun, even when one is making losses and I’ve paused to ask this question “Is there actually any fun in gambling especially when the losses are more than the winnings?”
Let’s be frank, there are several other things one can do for fun aside gambling and I understand that life it’s own is a risk but seeing claims that people see gambling as fun even when making losses is weird and I think it’s worth discussion as to know if truly people gamble strictly for fun without minding if they’re losing or winning
It's in parts and this has to do with what interest you in indulging yourself in gambling, for some their condition could be out of loneliness having no close neighbor or friend to keep company, also elderly people too out of boredom take part in gambling and these people will mainly gamble for entertainment and fun seeking reason where losing won't be something to worry about provided they are catching the fun that's killing their boredom and loneliness.
On the other side, there are the gamblers that stuck themselves into gambling for the sole purpose of making money and anything of a result that's of the opposite will definitely not sit fine with them. so it depends on the individual what made him get into gambling in the first place.

I have read many posts talking about how they wanted to withdraw the money they won but due to the amount they wanted to withdraw was big, they were asked  pass kyc verification because they never did when they first registered.

Yes indeed, even though Manchester City play away against Everton in today's match, of course Manchester City will be the favorite team to win. But yes, even though Manchester City are still predicted to win in this match, I think it's still not easy either because yes, at least Everton are also still in a good trend at this moment.

Manchester City has taken longer time than I expected to bounce back to the top of th tree, but no doubt they should clean this match without any struggle even though Everton has been performing nicely the past weeks, I still think Manchester City will not take any chance in today's match. Guardiola is already piss with critics because of the slow recovery of the team but he says what maters is the end result which I believe he will deliver for certain.

Quote
What's more, it looks like Haaland will also not be played in this match because he is still injured but maybe I'm wrong, because I also still don't know the information related to Haaland in this match whether it will be played or not.

But yes, if for example Haaland still cannot be played in this match then of course it is still not easy for Manchester City to beat Everton in this match. At least, Manchester City's previous match when playing at home against Crystal Palace, at least that match will be a consideration too for this match. After all, although on paper Manchester City are still very favored but yes, at least Manchester City also still have a chance to fail.

Haaland is not coming and I don't think his absent will be felt that much considering the available players that are going to represent the team to night. Even if he should come, I don't think much will be achieve because in the last few matches of his, he didn't do much and some couldn't score a goal.

Perhaps Haaland has began to feel the absent of Kelvin, last season he never have a single break and never had to struggle for ball but it looks like he is now doing the only attack KDB was doing and while he does the score. People's opinions might be right when they say he can't do well without KDB because he has begin to show exactly that prowess but since Kelvin is back, maybe he will improve.
The situation with Haaland should be something to remind strikers not to fully depend on anyone in the team for creation of goal chances for them, they ought to be a struggling striker that fight for their own goals  and not just positioning waiting for a pass to come through for a prolific midfielder like KDB as in their absence you will be greatly stranded of goals. Having said that, Haaland hasn't been a lazy striker though, he has been able to manage his leading position as the highest goal scorer in the EPL so we can't really say for sure he's deeply affected by KDB's absence that much just that the team as a whole has not been up to expectation in winning matches since the absence of KDB. But am happy he is back and could fixture in any of their games any moment now.

Many persons have shared their bad experiences about trading in general, how they lost their funds, got into debt, even wrecked their finances.
It is good for newbies if they read stories about loss with trading, risk of trading because very few people will share their painful stories.
This is so true, and this has misled plenty of newbie traders that has to encounter series of losses in the beginning of their trading journey which made them to give up shortly bethinking that trading isn't their thing. Mainly those YouTubers who teaches about trading online they only make use of successful trades in their tutorials making trading look like a simple affair you can jump in and out with profits. Showing newbies the ugly side of trading will in my opinion strength their mind and prepare them for what's ahead as they decide to pick interest in crypto trading.

Quote
People can succeed in trading but chance is small and it is proven by many studies and statistics.
You're correct, if we're to sum up the total figures of crypto traders the successful figures will be insignificant to the total. And those that fall into this successful traders figures are traders that started off with huge money as start up. They have a lot of advantages with experiences that they keep gaining as they make losses and later build on those experiences to be professional traders. All am saying is that, in trading the amount you have also matters in determining your success at the end.

Aston Villa has been very accomplished with the ball tonight in the first half and aside having a 2 goals lead in this game Villa also have a  100% control of the statistics in this match against their opponent Manchester united.
Should this game end in this scores Aston Villa will be equal in points with Liverpool on the table who will only be topping them with goals difference.
To Manchester united fans, can United be able to turn things around in the second half , we have known Manchester united in then days to be known for late comebacks so is it possible United can call back this game scoreline to a 2:2 draw or more luckily win this game or will Aston villa double the goals in the second half?
Now Aston Villa is leading 2-1 where Garnacho was able to reduce the gap but unfortunately the goal was disallowed by Var which meant that Aston Villa remained in the lead with a score of 0-2. I think Aston villa has a big chance of securing this match with a win because they can implement the option to defend until the match ends. Well, the match has entered the 65th minute, where Manchester United continues to try to reduce the gap and they continue to build their attacks quite well in the second half.

And look at Garnacho scoring another goal and I think this is a really interesting match where Manchester united can prevent Aston villa from stealing full points in this match. If Aston Villa fails they really waste a good opportunity in this match.
It's really been an interesting and thrilling night for Manchester united in this match securing 2 goals in the space of 10 minutes and the third goal from Hojlund being his first goal of this season and in the EPL  the goal came at the most crucial time transpositioning Manchester united to take the lead to claim the whole 3 points of the match. No one saw this coming that a team that played so poorly could come back at the second have and secure three goals in a row to win the game. Aston villa has so much explaining to do to their fans on how they had to let go such opportunity to win this game at a platter of gold. Just as they say, in the game of football anything can happen. Congrats United for the comeback!

This thing about trust I don't know how you guys look at it, especially when it comes to family, marriage, children, and all that. Before you move ahead and get married to a man or woman, there are things that you use to judge them before making your decision, and if you don't trust them at all, there is no way you are going to start a family with the person.
 
So, to cut the whole story short, if you are married for security reasons, your spouse should at least be aware of some of your holdings destinations in case of emergency.
 
Currently, almost all my wallet's details I don't hide from one of my trusted family members; he doesn't have access to them currently, but if an emergency arises someday, he knows the way about my holdings, and with little support from others, they could be able to access them, so my holdings are secured to some extent.
People take trust issues too extreme but the truth is that you've no choice but to have someone to put your trust in and confide in him or her for this reason of sudden death to be sure you have your family to benefit from your investment in the case of emergency that takes your life or a brain damage.  When we choose who to marry we also unconsciously and consciously have taken a decision of sharing certain vital secretive informations with that person we call spouse, what I see as to why many people are scared of leaking such vital information as private keys to spouse is due to how  prevalent the divorce cases has been on the surge nowadays and it has become a lesson for them in the aftermath of what resulted in such divorce cases. But still, we ought to have someone to trust with informations because life events such as death is unpredictable and inevitable.

Happy Christmas to all gamblers. I have been reading some threads and comments that many people have been saying that they find it very difficult to stop gambling (not only gambling addicts), but on one hand, I really think that it is not hard to quit gambling even when you are winning and not winning, but it is you who can't control yourself. Bets can not force one to stake, but a gambler can force themselves to stake a bet, even when he or she does not have money to bet. Some gamblers did not learn how to gamble. They just see themselves doing it, but they can't stop it. Why because they can't control themselves, even when they are not an addicted gambler?
What do we have to say about this?
In gambling the easiest way to identify a gambling addict is in the  lost of self control in how they gambling, don't have time when to gamble and when not to leave. I have heard of a gambler who couldn't leave the gambling house when the set  time for a meeting appointment he was booked for clocked even when his wrist watched which he had set alarm for the time rang he just turned it off and continued gambling.  Such is an explicit example of gambling addiction a lack of slef control and money management while gambling, the only time you see them pause is when they have lost all the money they came with. The untold truth is that when wild gambling has taken over you there's no stopping.
