Saying old players are useless, I don't think it's right either, because when they sell players I believe that it has to do with the coach's taste of the criteria of the player he wants.
Not all old players are useless, but maybe I can just say the once chelsea is having are useless to the club, chelsea spent much money on the players they don’t need during the last transfer window. After spending much amount on players in the last transfer period, people were thinking chelsea will perform well, but we all saw how Chelsea played last season, we saw the position which they ended the season, all the quality players they bought performed poorly last season, I was just surprise to see player’s that Chelsea spent that huge amount of money on playing poorly on the pitch, no confidence, no team work, everyone was just playing individual ball last season.

What Poche did in my opinion was quite brave, because he made big changes with this new team,
If Pochettino didn’t make those changes in the club, then there won’t be any difference In chelsea performance, chelsea will still perform the same wey they performed under the previous coaches that they sacked. Even when chelsea was sacking their coaches anyhow, I knowthey needed a experience coach, but I knew their problem was not from the coach alone, we should also blame the players also. If Pochettino didn’t make the changes, chelsea might even get worst under him.

Bitcoin no be like paper moni wey we go fit carry waka dy do some kind things too. So I con reason am say, what if as we dy find way for Bitcoin to dy acceptable for the world, wait ma use our contri, what if we dy accept Bitcoin for everything we dy do and e con be normal thing like paper moni for this our contri Naija.
Make we talk true, people fit dey spend bitcoin for other countries, just the way dem dey spend their normal paper money but I just dey reason how that kind thing fit Happen for Nigeria, because people wey no sabi about bitcoin still plenty ooo, see the high level of illiteracy in this country, na just young guys wey dey come up and dem dey educated sabi bitcoin, and some of them go just tell you say dem dey hear about bitcoin but dey no get interest, but some wey get interest self immediately dey hear say na money you go use start am, they go just free am because person wey never see money chop go invest in bitcoin.

I enter some villages for my side, I fit talk say 99% of people wey dey all those villages wey I go no even sabi wetin bitcoin be, dey no even get stable electricity, very poor internet connection, No education, everything wey dem dey do no pass farming, if you tell those people about bitcoin, they go think say you just wan scam them self. Na why I dey reason say e no go easy make we dey use bitcoin for transactions in Nigeria, e fit even dey happen for urban areas, but u see our rural areas, we get work to do for that side.

I con imagine say we con dy use Bitcoin pay NEPA BILL, HOUSE RENT, TRANSPORT BILL (to pay conductor self) like do many things and the one wey make me talk about this one nah, we as Naija people con dy use Bitcoin dey pay Bride Prize for this contri?
Seriously e go dey fun ooo, but I know say e fit dey possible to dey pay Nepa bills, House rent with bitcoin, but you see that transport bill, e go hard small make we dey honest. Na Lagos conductor(abero)  you wan talk say e go accept bitcoin as payment, those once no go even listen to you, you enter car without change self na problem for u, not to even talk say u wan tell them say na bitcoin u wan pay with.

Mbappe will try to chase titles in Europe and Ballon d'Or too and he will not sacrifice his career in Europe to join Saudi Professional League only because of money he can earn in the nation. He is greedy but he is an ambitious player too and I think his ambition is bigger and more important for him than his greediness and money.
Mbappe already turned down Al Hilal offer, I saw it on news yesterday, he just make a brilliant decision which am sure will be a difficult decision to make. It’s just better for Mbappe to focus on his career for now, I know Al Hilal made a juicy offer which am sure it’s very tempting for every players, but if Mbappe can accept there offer, then his career has already being destroyed. I know Saudi league are trying to build their league, they want peoples attention to shift to their league that’s why they are spending all those huge amounts on money on transfers, but they can’t just get the kind of attention they need in short period of time, it’s a gradual process, they shouldn’t just spend all this amount of money on players in just a season alone.
944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: July 28, 2023, 06:33:44 AM
I don't think there will be any team in the premier league that will tend to underrate Chelsea or any other team by next season.
Right from when Pochettino was making all those new signings and he was selling the old players, I knew that was just the best thing he should do, those old player’s are of no use to the club so Pochettino should just let them go and he made the right decision, sometimes is not all about having old player’s in the team just because we thing they have experience, sometimes we need young and talented players in the team, players that are ready to work for the success of the club. From what those new players Pochettino signed are playing, you will see that they are really dedicated to play for the club because their performance was really incredible in the preseason match they played.

Am sure no club will underestimate chelsea next season, and am sure they are going to surprise everyone next season, those players Pochettino signed are ready to work for the club and they are going to surprise everyone.
945  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: July 27, 2023, 08:33:47 PM
so it's good for gamblers to know a specific amount that should go out in their wallet weekly or monthly.
It’s a good idea to have maybe daily, weekly or even monthly, so that you will be able to keep track on the amount you are spending on gambling. I don’t really have any specific amount I spend weekly or monthly, but whenever am exceeding my limit I do always control myself, I always know whenever am exceeding my limit.

what i expected every gambler is to make table of how much should be spend in gambling and how much should go investment, because money we loses in gambling continuously if we gather it together it will sum up to start a little business. I'm say play gamble with experience, don't use all you have for casino gambling
The only people that keep track on the amount they spend on gambling are the once that gamble just for fun or relaxation, but addicted gamblers don’t care about the amount they spend on gambling, you mentioned about investments or business, addicted gamblers prefer to gamble with their money than investing or running any business. We all have heard when addicted gamblers do sell their properties just to gamble, they sell their assets. If the amounts they have spent on gambling is being calculated, then it will have changed their life if they have invested it in other things.

If you are aware that your neighbor living next door is into drug dealing and he come seek your advice how to buy Bitcoin, will you teach him?
Yes I will teach him, I have no reason not to teach him all what he wants to learn is how to buy bitcoin, and am not concerned about the business he is into, I will try my possible best to explain to him on how to buy the bitcoin, I will tell him the necessary things which he wants to know and that’s all.

Or maybe you are thinking he might end up using bitcoin in receiving payment or maybe he will end up using bitcoin in making payment in his deals, but I don’t think you should be concerned about what he is trying to use the bitcoin to do, he came to meet you so that you will teach him about bitcoin, just do your part and leave him, you don’t have to care about what he will be using bitcoin for.

What comes straight to mind is embezzling the ill-gotten money, but is this even safe? My other neighbor knows I am into Bitcoin and he learned from me, I guess that's how this other neighbor knew, I told him to go meet the next neighbor but he said he is not ready to teach.
And why do you think that’s what he is planning to learn about bitcoin, he has been doing his drug deal business which he is making payment or receiving payments in fiat currency, so why do you think he is planning to switch his payment method? He might just be hearing about bitcoin and he will also be interested in investing in bitcoin that’s why he came to meet you.
947  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 26, 2023, 10:40:27 PM
Mbappe has refused to negotiate with Al Hilal, he's possibility to join the Saudi Arabia league is slim. i don't know why he turned down such huge amount of money fo just a year contract.
Don’t you think Mbappe made the right choice by turning down Al Hilal offer, people have been saying he should just go   to Al Hilal and leave after one year, but hope you know just one year leave can ruin his career, it’s better for Mbappe to just build his career, and forget about money for now, I know it won’t be easily for him because everyone needs money, but he should try. He is still young and he shouldn’t end everything just like that, immediately Mbappe goes to Al Hilal, then attention will be shifted from him and am sure that’s already the end of his career already. He should just build his career for now, maybe when he is old if their will be any Saudi club that will still be interested in him, then he can go their to enjoy his money.

You may prefer the ticket to lose instead of accepting the amount given to you as cash out.
Not everyone Will prefer their ticket to lose instead of cashing our, you should just speak for yourself. If am gambling and am given the opportunity to cash out, if am not confident about the remaining matches left, then I will just cash out and go away with my win, some times when gambling we shouldn’t be greedy, it’s better you cash out the little amount than you losing everything.

If people like you end up going into future trading, you might end up just losing your money always, because future trading is not for the greedy once. If you are greedy, you might always end up using high leverage always just because you want much money, and some times when you are suppose to take profit, you won’t because you won’t be satisfied with the profit.

950  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nah lack of common sense or greed?? on: July 26, 2023, 06:12:40 PM
I say make I bring this mata come here make we discuss. I wan hear our different opinions on how we fit stop this menace. We no be strangers to the dangers wey tanker wey dey carry fuel come get accident dey cause. The issue of bad roads nah another thing to consider and also, sometimes carelessness of the driver becos him go dey drive like say nah sports car him dey use.
Bad road for dis country get as e be but even drivers dey careless too, because even roads wey dey okay accident still dey happen and all na lack of patience, greediness, dem go carry over load, we all know say even our car tire get maximum load wey e suppose dey carry, but our drivers no dey care, dey go carry people like animal for inside car, Some of them no dey give themselves rest which sometimes if dem dey drive dey will end up sleeping. All accidents wey dey happen for d country no be all bad road dey cause, drivers dey cause some also.

But where the gbese dey nah on how people go dey rush to go collect fuel wey dey spill, not minding the possible danger to life wey if small spark happen, dem fit roast.
People funny ooo, why u go dey risk ur life just because of small fuel wey u go see pack, something wey no even worth am, life dey very precious ooo I see no reason why I know say something fit kill me and I go still talk say na wetin I go do be that just because of money. I don see different accident wey happen wey kill plenty people and most of d people wey die na d once wey dey go pack fuel as tanker get accident finish.

Some go say na due to the fuel scarcity nai make them rush, others go say dis na opportunity to take get money after them sell am,
Nothing like na fuel scarcity cause am, people don dey go move fuel for tankers wey get accident even before d fuel scarcity, me I just see am like say na stupidity dey cause that one because even if fuel scarcity dey me I see say e no worth am at all. And d once wey dey talk say na opportunity because dem go sell am get money, how much you wan get like that considering the risk you are going to take, and you will still end up endangering other peoples life and property, me I just dey see those people like say na Mumu dem be.

You feel say our government dey partly to blame or nah just lack of common sense dey worry us so??
Make we talk true no be every stupid move wey people take we go dey blame government, me I just see that one as lack of common sense, na government go tell us make we stay away from things wey we all know say e dey dangerous, na lack of common sense jare.

Most people don’t know about the things which you just listed, so it will be very difficult to gamble on them, if you do that you will just be wasting money maybe that’s why people don’t really gamble on them, maybe some people don’t really know you can even gamble on events like this, and they don’t know where to gamble on it, but just few people knows about events like this because I can only say I know about one event alone among the once which you just listed.

4 - Presidential Elections:  There is already a thread here for betting on who is most likely to become America's next president. I guess other countries would have a version of this too.
Have been seeing about US presidential election here on the forum, and their was a time when my country election was really close, I saw some local gambling site in my country where you can bet on any preferred candidate to win the election, actually I didn’t gamble on it because I knew my candidate wasn’t going to win the election. Since events like this those not happen frequently, so most people don’t even know about it, before you can’t gamble on presidential election again in my country till in the next 4 years.
952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 25, 2023, 08:15:29 PM
The problem is we don't know what Mbappe wants yet is he really chasing money? if yes then Al Hilal is the solution but what if he pursues a career? obviously Real Madrid is the solution, in general all top players will pursue career first then money therefore I doubt if Mbappe will choose Al Hilal. I'm not a Mbappe fan so it doesn't matter to me wherever he plays it's just that I'm interested in following this drama, I wonder if talented young players prefer money over career. If he was me then I would choose a career then at the end of the career I would make money  Grin
This might really be a tough decision for Mbappe to make, we all know that money is really important, but he also has a career to build, so he shouldn’t be distracted with money. It’s kind of just too early for Mbappe to end his career, I know the amount Al Hilal is offering him is really kind of much, but if he can go there, then his career have been ruined already, most players going to Saudi league are already old and they don’t have career left to build, they are just going to relax and enjoy their money there, but as a young player which everyone is looking up to, then he shouldn’t allow money to spoil his career, Mbappe should just forget about the money and focus on his career, time will come when he will be able to enjoy his money, but it shouldn’t be now.
953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between futures trading and gambling on: July 25, 2023, 07:24:10 PM

As a future trader, you have control over your fund and you can exit the trade if it decline your prediction but gambling is totally different because once you click on the bet button you have no control over it again until the game is settled either in your favor or against you.
When gambling and you are already winning, you can be given the opportunity to cash out the amount won if you can’t wait for the match to end completely, am not saying gambling is not risky, but I had little experience with future trading before I left it, future trading almost ruined my life before I had to force my self to stop it, maybe the experience I had is one of the reasons why I still consider it to be more risky than gambling. Most people that really lose a lot in future trading are the once that are looking for quick money (they are the once that use high leverage because they want to get rich quick which at the end they lose all their money easily), the greedy once( they also use high leverage and they are not satisfied with the profit they are having till things go against them), the newbies( As a newbie you will easily lose money, because future trading is really risky and it’s not what newbies can just jump into). My personal experience with both future trading and gambling makes me believe future trading is more dangerous than gambling, just that gamblers easily get addicted.

traders a better chance of making profit than in gambling.
That’s one of the main reason why you see lots of people going into future trading, because they can easily make money. I know if you can use high leverage in future trading then you will make money, but the higher your leverage, the higher the chances of you losing money so if you are into future trading, then it’s better you use low leverage, because if you keep on using high leverage, then you might end up losing everything you have being winning in the past.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between futures trading and gambling on: July 25, 2023, 09:41:43 AM
 
Is it really necessary to learn about futures trading before starting to make money there? No.
Futures is really risky most especially for beginners, I don’t really recommend beginners to trade future because you might end up losing money easily, their is no way you will start making money if you don’t have the knowledge of future trading, because you will just end up losing all your money, if you don’t have knowledge it’s better you go for spot trading, you won’t really be losing money compare to if you are in future trading.

Two months ago I found two good trading masters on Bybit and started copytrading. One month, I copied one trader. Another month - another trader. The first month brought me more than +100% to my deposit. The second one brought me +28% more.
Am not a fan of copy trading or trading signals, people might be making money from both trading signal and copy trading, but we all have to be independent, when you are in crypto space you don’t have to depend on others for your success, if people you are copying their trade are failing you will also be failing, it’s not really making sense, if you really want to be making money in crypto space, then it’s better you seek for the knowledge and have your own trading strategy, don’t depend on what another person will feed you.

So, my answer is as following: futures trading may be even easier than casino.
I disagree with you, future trading is not really easy and it’s kind of risky likewise gambling. You said you are making money from copying trading, but hope you know there are some people that don’t have much knowledge about gambling and they are also making money. The same way trading signals are available, their are also people Providing gambling predictions.

The people in these stories followed their passion and created wealth through it. What is your opinion on following one's passion in relation to wealth? Can your passion lead to an increase in your net worth? If yes, what is stopping you from following it?
Yeah if you are having passion for a business and you are able to establish it, then you are going to put more effort just to make it successful, their is always joy in doing what you really having passion for, but before you can be successful you need to have passion for the service that’s needed in the society, because if you are having passion for the wrong thing, then I don’t really know how you are going to be successful. What some people are having passion for, they don’t have the financial capability to establish it, so that’s why most people don’t really go into what they are having passion for.

More sites like 1text.com and Quilbot.com can also be used to check for plagiarism, and they are free for certain stages but require an upgrade when requesting premium service.
Am confident about my post, so why do I have to use any plagiarism check for my post, if maybe you have done some manipulation that’s why you will want to use plagiarism checker to confirm if you are successful or you are still having some edition to make. I noticed some people do use Quilbot to correct their grammar, most people that English is not their native language, so after writing Quilbot is always helping them to correct some errors in their post, but I don’t know that Quilbot is also used to check for plagiarism in a post.

Do we actually need all these?
A good piece of content generated from one's own thinking should have nothing to do with plagiarism, unless you copy some part and think it may not show up on the websites you are checking. Meanwhile,  there are other plagiarism checkers that are perfect and can expose such minor plagiarisms.
No matter how smart you think you are, if you plagiarize then you will definitely be exposed, even if you copied just one line, you might use 1text to check it and it will be showing 100 percent unique, but if you use another advance plagiarism check, it’s going to show where you copied everything from, so that’s why it’s just better we shouldn’t involve ourselves in anything illegal, if you know you are copying a post from a website, then make sure you add your source link and nobody will accuse you of plagiarism for that.

I just decided to put this up here to see what you guys think about it. If you are in a situation that requires some funds immediately, would you go for a loan or would you sell one of your properties to solve the problem? And which of them is a better option, to sell property or to take a loan?
Everyone is having choice so it’s left for everyone to decide either to sell property or you go for a loan, but as for me, If am having a source of income and I know that I can pay back the loan before the specific time which I promise to pay back, then I will rather go for loan, but if I don’t have any means to pay back if I take a loan, then I will rather sell my property just to settle the problem. But it’s annoying when you see people taking loan and not having means to pay back, when it’s time for them to pay, they will start giving story, if you don’t have any ways which you can pay back your loan after taking it, then make sure you completely avoid loan.

Betking is a local gambling site in my country, am not sure they are not the one that’s accused of being a scam site, Betking those not even accept crypto, it’s a local gambling site which the only currency that they do accept is fiat currency, you can easily deposit from your bank accounts and withdraw back to your bank account but they don’t accept cryptocurrency, so I think they won’t come to the forum here to market, any gambling site that will be marketing on the forum here will definitely be accepting bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but if you only accept local currency, then am sure they won’t come to forum here, they will rather reach out to their people locally. That’s why I think the Betking that have been accused of scam here is different from the one which the OP placed his bet on.
960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you quit that's when you lose! on: July 22, 2023, 01:46:40 AM
If you quit that's when you lose is the loser mentality, in my opinion. So many gamblers have lost life savings before on gambling to chase losses and that is how they thought about quitting gambling.
If you are a gambler and you are always chasing your lose, then you are going to keep on losing, we all should learn to accept our lose and come back another day to fight. When you chasing your losses, you won’t want to give up because you will be having the mindset that you are going to win back everything’s you have lost, but don’t be surprise that you will end up losing everything you are having left with you, just because you are chasing your lost. If you are a gambler and you have lost enough of money in a day, then just stop gambling that day and wait for another day before you will continue.

Gambling is all about the fun and nothing else, so forget this point of view and don't chase losses.
The main issue is that people don’t focus on the fun aspect of gambling, what they focus on is just the money aspect that’s why they are always having issue when they are losing, they are always feeling they will win back all the money they have lost if they continue playing.
