961  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria Announced to increase fuel to 720 on: August 18, 2023, 11:03:20 AM
Omo nawa ooo, this country e get as e be ooo, people nava recover from the first fuel price way be 520 naira and they increase it to 620 e nava do them just this morning it was announced that fuel should be sell on the rate 720 naira per litter, things are really going to be though in this country, maybe the only way for us to survive is to diversify our means of transportation by going for electric car or motorcycle just like a topic created on this thread on how electric car will help to remedy lack of movement caused by increase of fuel, this is actually the time for it.

The cost of living in this country is something else ooh Very soon the price will rise to 1000 per litter, and the annoying part of it is that the increase has greatly affected food stuffs, things we normally buy on a certain amount is no longer sell on that way. Even gas price has also increase, the question now is that how much more can Nigerians take?

I think the government is already doing something about the price they are looking for a way to regulate the price, people are getting tired of the whole situation once the fuel price is affected then any other thing is affected especially transportation and commodities in the market, and I think this is the time for the government to start engineering strategies to improve how the mode of transportation talk, buy a liter for 720 is just huge and people are really going through a lot bro if want to know that people are going through a lot, step out in the city and check the street you will know what am talking about, sometimes it pains me that our politicians are cruel and have taken advantage of the people, and the living can not even afford its own standards anymore due to situations.

I would say it depends entirely on one's will and goals. If I win a life-changing amount of money, I stop playing big. Because now I have money in my hands and I want to invest it in other ways. I don't want to take any more risks with the money I have earned. I'll go for areas that will bring me a daily income and I won't worry about making money for the rest of my life. For this reason, I would not stop gambling, but I think I will play even if it is for pleasure. Thanks to the high amount I won, I can say that taking such a risk again will cause very big problems, so I don't think I will choose to take such a bet again.

I don't believe that moving in that direction will benefit you. The issue is that once you win big, the temptation to bet big gradually creeps in because we have the perception that anything that involves money requires us to invest energy. I am aware of people who have placed bets and already made calculations in their heads, forgetting that a potential win does not guarantee that you will win, I'm sure of that. Bet is interesting if it is properly managed, managing it is difficult because sometimes looking at does odds is quite tempting, if greed can be controlled then half of the problem is solved. And getting others means to earn is the best and playing for pleasure is OK cause thats what I do.

Right from last season Newcastle have been thus team that has been transforming and looking like a threat to big teams in premier league.  Looking at Newcastle they will really do well this season and will be a nightmare to team like Manchester city. Manchester City and Newcastle meeting will an interesting game that Manchester City won't find it easy. In all the games that Manchester City have played this it was only the game they played against Burnley that was easy for them, Manchester City against arsenal was a tough game because arsenal have quality squad,  this is the same way Newcastle will be tough against City.

Newcastle is known for their amazing performance since they get all the encouragement from their owner and am very sure they also don't want to disappoint him, and last season they were not just an ordinary threat but a serious one, the problem is not debatable they will definitely do well, and the way clubs are to play this season it not going to be an easy season for manchester city and that is what I wanted, other clubs need to start cooking something and disarm manchester city and now that de Brune is not available it is a loophole for the city, and Burnley did well but no goals, cities still have great competitors ahead.


Also, a certain problem for Manchester City is the fact that the team has just played a UEFA Super Cup match, unlike Newcastle United, which, after the match with Aston Villa, has been systematically preparing for the match with City all week. At least, Pep Guardiola criticized the English Premier League that the match was set for Saturday, not Sunday or Monday, and sarcastically expressed many thanks. Although, of course, Guardiola, together with his staff and with his experience, should neutralize the negative consequences of this, but the fact remains. Newcastle has a definite advantage because of this.

And Even the supa cup was a great challenge for manchester city a lot of energy was used because even Sevilla was not joking with manchester city at all on the pitch, and the absence of de Brune again will also affect them how hilarious that Newcastle has been seriously preparing against manchester city is going to be an interesting game and my prediction is either Newcastle win or the game ends in a draw, I fully go with what you said about Newcastle having the advantage. even without the 1 week preparation newcastle is hard nut to crack.

Nowadays it is not the same as before, because what men can do today most women can do. And the other thing is that they even surpass the men in truth. Especially when it comes to business or entrepreneur.

And even based on statistics, it appears that women are better at managing than men, though it's still mostly men who manage their businesses.

The world is changing  and women are even doing better than men, I think it still depends on the sector, there some sectors that women won't be that productive, women do well in the business and entrepreneurship sectors they come up with brilliant ideas that can grow businesses like fashionand the rest, there women that own business that do very well in management, I feel women needs to be encourage, women need to come out of the shell one of the factors affecting us in this region is that only few women are given the opportunity to actually display there talent in anything of there choice. And emotions is also there every business has its own challenges so how many can with stand without breaking down.

Indeed, investment in real estate has the potential to be highly profitable and means of achieve financial success, particularly when approached  with intensive research, planning and ability  to hold it for extended period of time. The lessons I learned from my personnel experience of investments in real estate suggest that location is everything when we invest in property, and returns on commercial property investment are comparatively better than residential.

Investing in real estate has a lot of profit it is not for ordinary people that can go into real estate and one of the problem people are still facing globally is the issue of housing  the population is growing and affordability of housing is also increasing so is not even everyone that can have access to good housing. And even the government is finding it difficult to make provision of houses available, location to matters and it have its own way of affecting the price, ordinary person can not start going into but is everybody's  dream to own an estate, aside the money investors make from it, a very big solution to to the housing industry.

I have to says Sevilla was displayed good performance yesterday that although Manchester City playing agressive since the beginning of match but Sevilla can focus and they can able to managed their defense with very well but indeed penalty shot out result is very hard to predicted because it depend on the players mentally themself and Manchester City have been proven that they have champion mentality which make they can able to through an this match with the winning result

Apparently 2023 is Manchester City year because at this year they can able to achieve several trophies including Europa Super Cup trophy yesterday and this is first trophy for Manchester City for this event besides that Guardiola has personal records because during his managerial career Guardiola has been collected 4 Europa Super Cup trophies and his achievement is equal to Ancelotti

Everyone that actually watched the match between sevila and manchester city will actually know sevila was on fire and they were giving manchester city a very though time even to score and even haaland was struggling yesterday to score and was no way and even walker was putting effort to score but all chances were blocked by sevila players, and manchester city managed to win and they were pushing hard to go too a penalty shoot out, since its a 50/50 thing is either they win or they lose and and what i was angry about how sevila had good chances to score and they were unlucky and finally they won the super cup and manchester did well this season, but the way things are going his season is not going to be an easy one at all, and guadiola will start getting worried with the performance other clubs are coming with this season.

Overtime I hardly made use of twitter account and it calls to my noticed that twitter logo was replaced to X instead of the previous logo. Now I was curious to know why such thing happened and why change logo X, does it positively affect the users in any way?
I don't know how many of you are regular user of twitter since I barely relates over there and I noticed is not cool for me to always use since the sold out to Elon Musk that was my ending love of using that social network.

If topic already existed I don't mind locking this thread.

And i actually like the formal twitter logo it was different and unique i don't really fancy this new logo which is x and i feel elon is trying to use this name for all is assets starting from tesla and space x and i think elon is even more obsessed with the space project i think that is were the x is coming from, and some times i have problem identifying twitter since i have to start looking for x and since we the user does not have a say on how he runs is business if not for that am very sure a lot of users are not that comfortable with the way elon change the name and the logo and very soon tesla to might have a change of name over time and since elon has interest in crypto he might invest in a project and also call it x.

Manchester City team is expected to defeat Newcastle for sure. However, since KBD is injured, Manchester City's attack may be a bit weak. But I hope that Pep Guardiola will fix that place wisely.

it won't be that easy the way you're saying it in a way Newcastle is currently on fire, it is looking as if every club is on fire and the season is just starting, and plenty of clubs are ready this season for manchester city, is not doing to be an easy ride for them this season, and de brune not present to has its own effect on Haaland since he gives haaland one of the best assist, and they clearly needs to start adjusting to the new development, let us see the outcome of the game.


Seeing how poorly City play against a weak Sevilla, I'm not at all sure that City can beat a strong Newcastle. Given that both City and Newcastle are good defensively, I'd rather bet on BTTS No than on the victory of one of the teams. It seems that the KDB injury could break City's plans for this season (the main thing is that the competitors do well).

How surprising and interesting the game is and how Sevilla is seriously putting pressure on manchester city, and losing a very good opportunity to score, am actually impressed with Sevilla's performance tonight, but with this pressure, I expected more goals from them and manchester city is has already equalized and what happened during the community shield with arsenal is somehow repeating itself again playing 1:1 and pressure is now coming from both sides and something is telling me Sevilla will win this game, to some extent they actually do deserve it.
969  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is copy trading a viable option for newcomers? on: August 16, 2023, 08:17:16 PM
If you can never find a mentor, then copy trading is the best thing to do. In fact, we need the experience to gain more learning, and having this strategy would help us gain ideas as well. Of course, we can just stay long from doing this, as at the moment that we have ideas already we can make our own strategy applying those things that we have learned from copy trading. Because for me, I consider this as a stepping stone to grow and improve our skills.

Learning is expensive and so if we wanted to acquire this (learning), then we also have to spend some money in exchange for that valuable things.

I think having a mentor is not that bad, it is also a good measure to reduce risk if someone is seriously guided, I don't even think you will enjoy crypto without learning and easier mentorship, you keep learning new things every day as far as crypto is known there is an upgrade and etc. I don't personally believe that copy trading is too risky for me, I prefer you use copy trading to get ideas rather than going into it without knowledge, after learning one-two you can actually know the right steps to take, crypto involves too many processes so one wrong step can actually make you lose your assets

The game between Spain vs Sweden is about to go on with the favorite being Spain but this is going to be a hard knock to crack.
I believe the Sweden women won't let Spain get pass them that easy and they (Sweden) can even get a win in this encounter.
Since there meetings Spain have never beaten Sweden but can it be a different outcome in today's game? Only time will tell.
IMO I still see these two teams going into extra-time.

Even before the match started I know Spain will win the match those guys are not joking at all and Spain is always full of very talented players the only thing that was stopping Spain from winning was the defense of Sweden was tight and also the goalkeeper was also good because there were a lot of blocked shots from Spain, the game ended 2:1 with Spain winning after Sweden equalized 88 minutes of the game and Spain still won, women FIFA world cup is looking more interesting than that of the boys.  and I see them being more focused and dedicated a lot of teams fucked up doing the men's world cup tournament.

Those who think bitcoin as a job Always prefer the selling of everything and invest it in bitcoin but those who understand the fact and involve in bitcoin for only getting profit with income from another source too will never sell anything but they will save some amount to be put in bitcoin which is a good idea.

We should not depend fully on bitcoin because if we do it then at the time of lowering price we will not be able to eat well food at least. Physical business is more suitable because it is under the control of humans but crypto is neither control by human nor by any operating machine.

Investing is good but selling property to invest nah I don't I think I will advise that for anyone if anything should happen to the market it will definitely affect your investment, I prefer a situation where you use any money that you don't need to invest, one thing I despise is selling off my property, all is about planning and another thing is if you in possession or items you don't need you can sell to invest, and I see that we are on the same page, and depending on bitcoin fully is also not advisable better we have other sources of income so that we don't temper with our investment that is for does that have invested.

Barcelona drew away to Getafe. Barcelona, who were reduced to 10 men after Rapinha's red card towards the end of the first half, played a dominant game in the first half but could not find a goal. In the second half, with both teams down to 10 men after Getafe's Mata was red carded in the 57th minute, Barcelona increased the pressure and drew in the first match of the season.
Yesterday, Atletico Madrid made a good start to the league by winning 3-1 at home. With 3 goals and 3 points, Atletico took the lead in the first week.

And from the game, Barcelona had more chances, and enough attempts to score but all failed or were pushed out by the goalkeeper, and Barcelona losing some men actually affected their game and I wondered why they were playing rough the game was looking aggressive, they were looking for ways to win by all means and this Getafe club is a very stubborn club, and even at that they are nowhere near Barcelona from the stats barca had four shots on target and seven shots off target and this clearly shows the act of desperation that Barca wanted to score and the ball possession was 75 for Barca and 25 for Getafe so Barcelona had the lead but no goals.

Gunners were amazing in their opening EPL game this season, making positive impact on the faces of the supporters and the board. More elite clubs have improved their shapes and strengthened their vulnerabilities; it's truly phenomenal to see the Gunners compete at such an outstanding level both last season and this season. This time around, Arsenal will be scrutinized extensively. They had a fire in them that would accelerate them to become a dominant rival for the EPL crown. Mikel Arteta has bolstered his squad, and there is a great deal to be discovered about this fresh game plan.

Even has doh they played well they still seriously need to improve, and Arteta needs to improve from most of the matches have seen so far the premier league is going to be tough this season, even Chelsea is putting on a new form, and this is going to be a very dangerous season, and at first I was scared how saka was playing I think my confidence is still there for him. and the problem now is that we can only speak of last season and since is just the beginng we have to wait to see does that will survive, I don't want to high my hopes yet before I get disappointed there is time to decide.

975  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I a bad person if I manage to avoid taxes? (Hypothetical question) on: August 14, 2023, 09:00:50 AM
I don't how you're going to avoid all of your taxes, but you'll get exposed soon and you won't like what's waiting for you.

Avoiding your taxes isn't the solution to battle inflation, you might save some money but you're still going to spend it on buying the things you need and wants and that's still consider as paying taxes. But to answer the your question, yes, you're a bad person if you're avoiding some of your taxes, whether it's every month or every year.

And getting exposed comes with a lot of penalties, the offender will be charged to court and since his guilty he will have to pay and face the penalty and am still wondering how people escape taxes, I support the statement of not paying tax and feels it can help against inflation is a big lie and we should all do what is right, which paying our tax, since the money is supposed to be used for our own benefits and you can speak confidently any were about your full compliance of paying tax, I agree with everything you say not paying tax is actually a very bad habit and I think there should a kind of enforcement for people that don't pay. So that other will learn from that.

Welcome to Our cryptocurrency world.. As a beginner at first you need gather knowledge about cryptocurrency market and about buy sell and how to sell etc. Without proper knowledge anyone shouldn’t invest. Because without proper knowledge investors will loss his valuable fund. So Learn more to invest on this market. As a beginner you should invest small amount at first. If you do mistake then you will not big losser. You can creat a demo account tor trials after then you can start small amount then slowly you can increase your funf..

It won't be nice  to invest in what you don't have ideas about and that is what is killing most of the investors,  I noticed something about Elon and his projects are built  on information starting from space x and tesla, were built  from the information he add if not for that it will be very difficult for him to succeed. Bitcoin functions best when information is added to it otherwise, learning the hard way is not far away. And the best risk management advice anyone can give is to start investing with little sums so that you don't end up losing your money. That is where investing in bitcoin carries the danger that you could lose your money. Always begin with modest funds.

I don't think this season will be like last season that made many things go wrong with some teams not to perform well based on some bad players among the good ones, now that Chelsea has proven to people in their first game to challenge Liverpool in their home with draw 1:1 game.  what happened in today game will make others strong teams that form big teams in the premier league to prepare well for Chelsea in this season because they are ready to disgrace any team in this season with the tactics their new coach has impacted to them. Well, Liverpool players try their best not to allow Chelsea to defeat them in their first game than to draw the attention of the players to defend the game to end up in draw . Chelsea has displayed well in this game that will make me to predict for their favour in their next game.

I see a beautiful start from all clubs but the problem now is that all clubs are in form, once we get to the middle of the season a lot of clubs start fucking up, to some extent majority of Chelsea's player have improved i did not even expect sterling to play well today,  and also N. Jackson did play well, I did not expect  Chelsea to play well seriously and to some extent there was a lot of pressure on Liverpool, and it was now looking  as if Liverpool is confused, and it got to the extent even sallah was closely marked and when he was removed during the second half he was angry, and I still feel Chelsea is the list club to be scared of talk about Manchester city and others and Liverpool played well defensive game.
978  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: ~If you must trade~ on: August 13, 2023, 07:01:18 PM
I would say having good patience will leave your trading successfully right. Once you’re patient enough, it’s as good as your emotions are not wild and are still in control. With patience, you will be able to focus and target what’s in your goal without pressuring yourself to trade even if the market is still in a bad shape. And if you have the right patience as a successful trader, surely you will also be potential long term investor as well.

For both long-term investors and those who engage in daily trading, patience is the key to enjoying bitcoin investments. However, in addition to having patience, you also need to be emotionally prepared because investing in bitcoin may be stressful, particularly when there are market-affecting news events. I learned that investing in bitcoin follows similar rules to other types of investments there are certain requirements to be met before you can start reaping the rewards. Even holding for a long time is difficult, but when you consider the potential return, you will be forced to wait. If you have another source of income, this is the only time you will truly enjoy investing in bitcoin. All is still involves patience.

Seriously, Liverpool vs. Chelsea will be a difficult game to predict. I am also expecting a draw in the match, but I won’t be surprised if Chelsea end up winning the match. If the match does not end in a draw, then any club that wins is going to have a slight goal difference between them.

I don't think there is anything to predict hear, its plain Liverpool will not lose against Chelsea, I don't see Chelsea doing anything different from last season, and seen a lot of predictions and majority is Liverpool winning, I don't see how someone will be going for a straight win for Chelsea, I don't  see this game has something we can argue about, and now the game have started already. And the highest  that can happen is the game will end draw.

The home factor might make Chelsea a little more confident. But from the appearance in the EPL the rest of last season, Liverpool have improved more.  Pochetino's challenge if he manages to win maybe they will have a better move for the next game. Pochetino and Klopp had almost the same fate last season, this season they have to work hard if they want to compete with Man City. They must seize the moment of transfer to improve club strength.


Yeah home factor might help Chelsea but Liverpools experience  is also another thing to consider,  with this match we can actually decide if Chelsea have improved or not or they will still narrowly escape relegation like last season,  and with the new improvement in Chelsea, am seriously waiting to disturb Chelsea fans since they are always full of there self, and the match have started, my spirit is certain that Liverpool  will win, they are not here for playing, and what C. Chukwuemeka did actually deserves red card, the refree was just considerate. They have a record of yellow  card already.

Arsenal wins against Nottingham with 2-1 scoreline. Good control over the match but I feel they should have scored one more goal. Gunners had plenty of chances which went wide or saved by Turner and also at the end I think Arsenal players were tired while tracking back counter with Elanga on the ball and conceded the goal.

I would say a good start by Arsenal with new PL campaign but I think Arsenal are much capable of posting even better scoreline.

Arsenal was in total control of both the first half and second half and at first, I wanted to complain about not seeing the action Arsenal was having last season, even saka was looking cooled until E. Nketiah dropped the first goal, my spirit was uplifted, and even before the match started I was sure that arsenal will win, the most amazing goal was the way Saka scored the second goal, what a beautiful curve I think saka to deserves some credit, his young and has good potential. and i think the issue of  saka our coach needs  strategies I feel he uses saka to much and other leagues are still there,


I was still surprised by Martinelli's assist and immediately Nketiah fired in the shot that led to Arsenal. Then there was the spectacular goal scored by Bukayo Saka and even Kai Havertz was speechless to the point of holding his head because he was so surprised to see the goal. In the second half Arsenal struggled quite a bit and couldn't add to the number of goals and instead they were hit by a quick counter attack from Nottingham which made them concede one goal. A deserved victory for Mikel Arteta's squad at the start of the season and these 3 additional points keep Arsenal still below Manchester City with a goal difference.

Martinelli's assist gave a bright back kick for the assist and it was a creative one, but even with today's victory arsenal needs to work on himself, the way this season is about to start is going to be a tough one and Haaland and others are already geared up, yesterday sincerely Burnley was a tough opponent but could not just score. the first goal was an unexpected one and also the second one, there are more games to enjoy if Arsenal can do it I don't want them to lose any game, and Nottingham scored one goal which is good for them, not only Arteta was happy I was also happy that arsenal won.
