Lending money to relatives can cause serious problems. Some of them usually think that it is your responsibility to give them what they need. I have given my relatives money several times willingly and even unwillingly and they failed to return the money. When I asked them about the money, they felt offended, and it led to quarrels. So I have decided to only lend money that I can afford to lose if they refuse to pay back. If you ask for more than what I can afford to forgo, I will offer only what I can afford to lose. This pattern has worked perfectly for me because it has reduced disagreement and misunderstanding because of loans.

Some female friends are trustworthy. As much as you don't have any romantic relationship with them they usually pay back loans. However, I still apply the same strategy by giving what I can afford to lose. But if she is your date, consider the loan gone.

Lending money to someone because he wants to use it for gambling is not good except he is a responsible gambler who just ran out of cash. If he is an addict who wants to use the money to feed his unhealthy gambling habit, he will receive nothing from me.

Kevin de Bruyne and Mohamed Salah are the main targets of the Saudi Professional League this Summer. These two players will bring more quality and publicity to the league if they are successfully brought there. But they might have to wait for another year if they want to get them at a reduced rate since both players' contracts will expire at the end of next season. Considering de Bruyne's injury-prone nature, City might consider letting him go if he decides to move to the big-money spending league.

Salah has committed himself to Liverpool after the department of Jurgen Klopp and the appointment of Arne Slot. He has promised to work with the new coach to make next season a successful one. So we might see him seeing off his contract and becoming a free agent before moving to the SPL if he wishes. The Saudi Arabian government is doing everything possible to make their local league competitive. They have plans to bring more quality players, invest in infrastructures, and host the World Cup in 2034.

Brexit has affected the economy of Britain adversely. Many small businesses are suffering because of bureaucratic processes that impede the free flow of goods and labor. Imports and exports have become difficult, and even the agricultural sector that supported Brexit is feeling the heat. But the UK has moved on, and the economy is gradually becoming independent. Many opposers of Brexit predicted that the UK economy will not survive outside the EU but this has not been the case. It's been over four years now and the UK economy is not doing badly.

I don't think any political party is campaigning to have a second referendum to take the UK back to the EU. The EU will be happy to have one of its richest members back but it will not also be an easy task. Even if leaving the EU is a mistake, the UK will seek other means of correcting it without going back to the Union. I think the UK has moved on and will not go back to the EU. Rather, it will make policies that will foster the free flow of goods and services with its European partners.

This is a common problem among some high-income earners. They are always comfortable with what they earn since it can cover their expenses and give them other pleasurable things. Most of us fail to understand that nothing lasts forever, so there is a need to plan for the future. A friend once told me that I should save from my income every month, no matter how small, and this is what I have been doing with Bitcoin.

Applying the DCA investing pattern I ensure to keep some amount of Bitcoin monthly. The sum might not be big, but it gives me some level of satisfaction that I am investing in the future. It has not been an easy task because I have had to forgo many activities or things that once gave me pleasure to keep buying Bitcoin.

The 52-year-old Spaniard deserves to have this contract. He has changed the fortune of Aston Villa, a club that was sitting in 17th position when he took over after the sack of Steven Gerrard. The club finished fourth qualifying for the Champions League for the first time since 1982–83. The fans and the club owners are satisfied with his performance which is why they extended his contract. He was able to take Aston Villa to the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League this season. maybe he can replicate the same feat next season in the Uefa Champions League.   

Clubs like Barcelona are trophy-hungry. A trophyless season is equal to failure in Barcelona. Staying in such a club for two or three seasons without a Champions League trophy will lead to a sack. Xavi is not a bad coach but he performed below Blaugrana's standard so he has to leave. I don't think the Spanish coach is on the list of managers Chelsea is chasing to replace Mauricio Pochettino. 

I can't vouch for altcoins but Bitcoin is a perfect hedge against inflation. If you can keep Bitcoin for a long time you will be able to protect your investment against inflation. The profit you will make from hodling will be able to cover up the the effect of high cost of goods or depreciation of fiat currency caused by inflation.

Real estate would also be a good investment choice for me based on my country's socio-economic conditions. There has been an explosion in my country which has led to an increase in land and houses. Most lands appreciate more than 400% in four years. So buying houses or lands and selling them after a few years can be a viable protection against inflation. The only reason why I prefer investing in Bitcoin to real estate is because you can invest in Bitcoin with little funds while real estate needs large capital.   

Leicester have permitted Enzo Maresca to hold talks with Chelsea. His release clause is between £8m and £10m and he would have to compete with coaches like Kieran McKenna, Thomas Frank and Roberto De Zerbi. Enzo has been Pep Guadiola's assistant and has even handled Manchester City Under twenties. For now, he is the leading candidate for the job and Chelsea co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart will soon meet with him in Marbella. Chelsea wants to sort out their manager issue so that they can concentrate on other important problems like signing a number nine and getting a defender to replace the departed Thiago Silva.   

It is not about having an alternative source of income but having sufficient funds to cover your basic needs and also having an emergency fund. Anybody who sees Bitcoin investment as a full-time job will sell his coins easily because he would have bills to settle. The people who assume that they can make quick money from investing in Bitcoin are misinformed or they assume that they are investing in a Ponzi scheme or pump-and-dump shitcoin.   

How do you expect a jobless man to invest in Bitcoin? How do you want him to survive if he uses his current savings to invest in a long-term project like Bitcoin? I think OP did the right thing by discouraging him from investing now he has no job. He should get a job first before investing.   

Everything you have listed is valid. The human brain can malfunction at any time, so we need to have a backup. Writing down your email and password in a paper and keeping them safe is also ideal.

I don't think Ambatman has recovered his account because he has not posted since May 16th. But this user was able to recover his account after sometime in this thread, Please Recover My account.

I don't see it as a stupid mistake. Most members never thought they would be in this forum for this long. I have joined many forums where I lost interest quickly and never became active. Some persons just choose a random email and password to access the forum but don't have any interest in staying at first. Maybe they began to enjoy the forum and decided to stay but forgot to change these important details.

Any brand that hires the Sheriff will have good value for their money. Good luck Sir.

Since mixers have been banned on the forum, I think you should edit the original page.

This is the only match I have supported Manchester City to win, and sadly, they failed. This game is a clear indication that no team is unbeatable. We have been seeing some surprises in football recently, from Atalanta beating Bayer Leverkusen and now City losing to United; I hope we will not see Borussia Dortmund beating Real Madrid in the UCL finals. Congratulations to Man United and especially the coach Erik ten Hag. I hope this trophy will save his job because it seems that the club management has not changed their minds despite the FA Cup win.

I encourage the teaching of Bitcoin in high schools and colleges because it is current innovation that should be in science, technology and business syllabus. But let me assume that the young people you mean are those who have their own source of revenue. Such people should be introduced to Bitcoin and see if they can have interest.But they should not be coerced to invest in the sector to avoid regrets and blame games. Those who have interest could end up becoming bitcoiners and benefitting the sector. If they can invest at a young age, many of them might make a big profit when they have become adults. Some of them might even end up contributing positively to the industry.

But they shouldn't be introduced to the sector as a place to make a profit alone this is because it also has risks. Some of the important lessons they should learn are how to keep their funds safe and the risks associated with the industry.

There has been an increase in this kind of organized fight between influencers or celebrities. Sometimes, I wonder why these fights are arranged. They claim that these celebrities hate each other on social media, so they will want to settle the problems in the fighting ring.

From the celebrity fights I have watched, it became clear that they are doing it not to settle the score but to make more money. This fight attracts a lot of people who pay money to watch it physically or online. Companies also use the privilege to advertise their products.

I don't think any millionaire will want to risk his life in the ring because he wants to fight a social media opponent. This is basically an arrangement to still make money from the poor because these fights are not even entertaining.

OP these are your views and I don't dispute it because you have your experience. I have not engaged in Bitcoin trading so I don't know how it works but from studies and experience from others I can say it requires lots of current information and dedication.

However I see investing in Bitcoin as the simplest form of investment than others. Putting money into real estate requires lots of bureaucratic process that can make it tiring. Establishing and running a business can also be stressful. But the Bitcoin cycle has been consistent for so many years which makes investment predictable. Just invest what you can afford to live without and ensure you keep your coins safe. Use DCA to invest conveniently at your own pace. Then you should have at the back of your mind that just like other businesses there are risks to face losses. 

I think you didn't understand what I said mate or maybe I didn't explain it well. I was not just discussing about online betting but gambling generally. I gave an example of people who gamble with computer games that they have to engaged in. Since the person's skills will determine the outcome of the game, he needs some level of confidence to win. There are times people gamble on sports they are playing. I see some people stake money on who wins a street football match. The players no doubt needs some level of confidence to play and win the game. But when it comes to sports bets or casino games in formal gambling houses, confidence plays little or no effect. These games are largely determined by luck, so gamblers have to express some level of control and not confidence.

It is difficult to fight corruption in a country that sees it as normal. In some countries giving or receiving bribes is common and people see it as the way of life. In such societies, you will find it difficult to stand against corruption because you will have to do it alone.

In my office, it is normal to engage in some financial malpractice to make extra money. My fellow workers see me as evil because I don't want to join them in engaging in such practice. In fact they are seeking for means to make me lose my job because they are scared that I might expose their corrupt deeds. Deciding to be incorruptible in a corrupt country is risky. There are cases where people were killed because they refused to compromise their integrity.

As individuals, we will have to be a good example in our homes, offices, and communities. We should be good ambassadors of sincerity and incorruptibility as much as we can. But the transformation of the country will depend more on the government. If those in authority decide to do the right thing, it will be easier for citizens to follow.

I am surprised Donald Trump has suddenly become a crypto fan. Anyway this is the nature of politicians when they are campaigning for an election. They will always ensure that they use diverse means to gain support from voters and sponsors. I don't think things will change much if Donald becomes President because we don't need to take these politicians seriously when they are looking for support.

These young leaders have experienced technocrats working as their advisers and assistants so you cannot assume that one can take advantage of their age. There are also several checks and balances systems like the judiciary and legislature that make governance a collective responsibility instead of a one-man show.

Every team's performance begins to depreciate if the club fails to maintain the quality of players and coaches. Some clubs sell their key players because of money and fail to bring in a replacement. Juventus was consistent because they had a system that retrained the best players and also attracted more good players to keep the squad in good shape. Juventus has some problems which led to several sanctions and affected the performance of the club. It seems they are willing to come back next season and they have shown it by the sacking of Massimiliano Allegri.

Napoli unfortunately lost their coach and his replacements were not able to keep up with his class, this led to the underperformance the club experienced this season. Inter Milan is another club that has been consistent for a few seasons now. They made it to the Champions finals last season and won the Serial A title this season, this shows consistently.

Banks will profit from cryptocurrencies through service charges on transactions. Some banks might also make money from hodling Bitcoin and other renowned coins. But this does not erase that they can also experience losses dealing with it because of the high risk associated with the sector. Customers dealing on crypto true centralized platforms like banks would have to undergo strict KYC, so the banks wouldn't be scared of scams or money laundering because it can easily be identified or traced.

The reason why banks don't deal with crypto is because the government has not approved it. Some countries have not been able to enact comprehensive regulatory laws that will bring the sector under the control of the government, so they are playing safe by restricting banks from joining the sector. The US ensured that they had a robust law to monitor and control the ETF before it was approved. Maybe in the future, more countries will be more friendly to Bitcoin after they have put control mechanisms in place.

It is not everyone who is in the Bitcoin space that has the patience to hold for a long time. Some of them are short-term traders who monitor that market to make profits immediately after the market becomes slightly favorable. But I also agree that some newbies are just so impatient and this might be attributed to a lack of experience. As they spend more time in the ecosystem, they will understand that there is no need to make hasty decisions.

The question now is how will you know the right time to buy or sell to make maximum profit like you illustrated? Bitcoin trading is risky and unpredictable which could lead to unexpected losses. It is easier to say that traders make more money than hodlers but the this is not always the case. Bitcoin hodlers make money in a less stressful and risky conditions.
