1  Economy / Economics / Re: Labor is really the birth of happiness? on: June 03, 2024, 10:29:25 AM
In my opinion, working as farmers or other workers is their destiny, and it doesn't mean they don't try because we don't know about it. They must have tried but fate had other plans, and I concluded that it was all about complementing each other.
Being a farmer is very important and greatly influences other people's lives. The success or failure of a farmer greatly influences both the central and regional governments. So they are destined to become farmers to complement each other and I think most farmers live happily because they are grateful for what they get so that the income they earn is sufficient.
And what a farmer has to think about is how his children will become successful people and I think most farmers think or plan about this, because many farmers' children become graduates and are successful. Farmers may not be able to change their fate, but they can still change the fate of their children with hard work and continuing to try.
Talking about compliment i understand that there must be a balance in the workspace of any country or in the orderly. Everybody cannot work in one field or area of specialization there must be several workers in different sectors in other to compliment and maintain balance. Some people are meant to be farmers, some are meant to work in the technological sector, some are destined to be in the oil sector.

The thing is that if there are no farmers, there will be no raw products for manufacturer to manufacture end products and if there are no manufacturers there will be no goods for traders to sell. It's like a chain system, everything coexists because one exists. But the choice is ours to choose where we want to find ourselves working.

If you ask me over and over again to choose between traditional system or digital and advance system of work, i would choose working in the digital sector. The world is changing very fast, and development have increased significantly, it is only those who adapts or sync into these changes would progress. It is good that we understand how this new technological era works even if we do not earn from it, but the knowledge alone would help us to live a better life here.

The traditional employment system has failed so many people and the young ones just like you have said has noticed this from an earlier stage. There are thousands of unemployed seeking employment in the traditional system when i was growing up, it would be wise if i choose to another route that there are few people instead of joining the thousand that 80% up till this date has not got employed.

Since you don't have much. You better stop and just consider a sure win like getting a job and maybe a second job.

You won't miss anything in gambling or in the casino since you are not hooked into it yet I presume since you ask this question. The best you can do is just focus on where you are good at because that's what normal people do and quit gambling while you haven't lost thousands yet.
Losing is a must in gambling, but that is not the end because there are chances and the need to re-strategies and devise another means to gamble. There are virtually set of individuals who will lose in gambling and will continually gamble also thereby turning to addicts. life they said is full of risk and gambling is also associated with risk, however losing is certain but the only way to avoid severe losses is to be patient enough to re-strategies and make a good decision. so, when you lose i advise you to quit for a while and think of the possible opportunities to gamble and also know that gambling is not a do or die affairs and also know that gambling is a game of luck and dont try to envy another person because he or she is winning and you decide to immitate them and that will render you cashless and an addict.
There are days when one's prediction in gambling works so well and they hardly lose in the bets while some days they find it so difficult to win any bet. I think in gambling we should try to know when things don't go out so well for us and quit gambling immediately at least for that day. Because if we continue, we would end up losing all our money in the bet. I have noticed this kind of things when i gamble. Some days i don't really speculate much i just do some picks and stake a bet and luckily i win some money. Since i have come to understand this instances, anyway i place a bet and maybe i lot for three consecutive times serially. I won't continue for that day, it's better to call it a day and il try another day when there is a good omen.

Don't just wait for Bitcoin to reach 100K, because you have to invest and then wait. If you observe, you can definitely see that, as the price of Bitcoin increases, huge benefits are gained. That is why Bitcoin investment is quite useful and now is the best time to invest. Because after a few days, the price of Bitcoin will continue to increase gradually, so you should participate in the investment quickly. Those who are still away from investing should definitely invest in Bitcoin.
The question we must ask ourselves is that the road to 100k is it faster than we expected or is it slow as usual? We worry too much about the price of Bitcoin and that has affected our mindset. Most of the people that think about the price are those who have not really started any investment and that is the problem. Being skeptical about the fact that it won't take long we would see 100k, perhaps they are new investors, so they have lots of good stories of Bitcoin now they want to witness it happen first before they start investing. Meanwhile it is wrong approach to investment. You don't have to wait for the bull run to come before starting to invest.
5  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy BTC sold for 16 BTC-1 mil USD on: June 03, 2024, 09:13:13 AM
Rich people really do not know how to spend their money, I mean why would you want to buy something like this? I get that it's bitcoin history, but it is not even that much of a big history of bitcoin at all. In fact, I would say that buying this for a million dollars is a bigger history of bitcoin then the paper itself, doesn't really make sense to me that it would be something this big and I would say anything more than one bitcoin is way too much for this.

I am not saying that I would pay that much, I know that it won't and the resell value of this is nothing, I am just saying even if I had billions, the most I would pay for this would be just one bitcoin and nothing more than that, it doesn't really make sense otherwise.

I agree with you that rich people spend money recklessly but we still have rich folks that channels their money/wealth wisely into meaning things,meaning things like investing on Projects that will create employments, Donating huge amount of money to the vulnerable/Charity homes,contribute immensely to community development.

The rich folk that splashes a million dollars on a piece of bitcoin paper might look like a reckless spender but you should also know that our ways of seeing things are different. I don't thing he would buy that piece paper if its not valuable,that piece of paper he bought can appreciate in values and can be sold in the future twice the amount it  was bought.
I disagree with you here! Many wealthy individuals are true investors, and they approach digital arts and collectibles as an investment. Depending on the wealthy individual, they see them as a way to diversify their investment portfolio beyond traditional assets and Bitcoin. In as much as there are potential in any investment, they belief digital assets have long term potential to appreciate. While some are them are naturally into arts entirely. Their passion for art drives them so crazy that they would search for digital art or local arts to buy it as they are rich. What am trying to say here is that people interest in digital arts and collectibles varies, and their reasons for buying them is best known to them. Some potential gains with time after they must have sold it while some for beautification and making their castle look expensive.
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: June 03, 2024, 08:40:16 AM
You should know that Erik ten Hag was successful in his first season at Manchester United, because Erik ten Hag managed to make Manchester United finish in third place in his first season. Therefore, even if, for example, Erik ten Hag was at Chelsea and was successful like that in his first season, then of course Chelsea would not sack him either.
Chelsea is not like Manchester United, the owners don't give second chance and they're not relenting when the appointed coach in charge looks incompetent. Todd Boehly sack Mauricio Pochettino and was bad news for the Blues because Mauricio Pochettino have sealed the europa spot but couldn't convert his chances. Manchester United hooked up with Erik Ten Hag because he was the man for the job. He deliver quite exceptional tasks for the growth of the Red Devils. Erik Ten Hag would have been successful in Chelsea.
That is the problem we are having with Chelsea, the idea of always wanting their team to win trophies under the first season management of their new coaches which is never certain to happen. Chelsea started quite wrongly and of course took some time to adapt but later on they improved which they ended their Premier League season on the 6th position but looking back from where they came from, atleast Chelsea should have been considerate to retain Pochettino for a while because everyone believes his going to improve.

I think personally it would be the other way round, Pochettino will be more successful compared to Ten Hag if he managed United because they really fell out by ending below Chelsea.
Chelsea is a team that adores their fans when they worship them, they are a team with pride even when they are failing. What were you expecting from them? Its so sad they always have to make there coaches put up the best performances in there debut season. And its the same time they did in the case of Pochettino. First the players he is working with was not signed by him but by the club and he is only a manager which would manage the players to win but he cant join them in the field. I think Pochettino had dome more tha enough for the club Chelsea, the fans value the things he did, i also believe that if he would coach Chelsea one more season they will perform better than their previous.

Yes, actually Dortmund were able to perform well and in the first half they were able to keep Madrid's game locked in, but Real Madrid has another advantage, namely the mentality of their players is not easily shaken. In the second half Kroos and his friends tried to combine the rhythm of the game so that they were able to escape the pressure and managed to score a goal. I quite enjoyed the game between the two teams because previously I thought Los Blancos would be able to dominate throughout the match.
Watching Real Madrid vs Borrusia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League final was entertaining because both sides did their best and we only have one winner and that's where Los Blancos fall in. Dortmund defeats was understandable because Real Madrid came prepared and absorbed all pressure exerted on them, this is what we're talking about, an elite club that's competent in all sectors and not in fixed positions. Borussia Dortmund had all the chances to thrashed Real Madrid 3 nil in the first half but what did they do with it? They missed out on the big chances when it comes to goals and this is really out of plans but total frustration on Dortmund. Edin Terzic tried but he's no match for Carlo Ancelotti.
What really happened in the first half of the game made me conclude that Dortmund would win the game. Imagine the several goal opportunities they had in the first half, surely it would have been 3 goals for Dortmund if they had scored them. Real Madrid fans would have been in shock when they saw those performances. If i were them i should have been praying for them not to score so fervently.  However the second half tables turn. It was now the time for Real Madrid to show why they are champions and do good thing is that they dont missed any goal opportunities. Every chances to score they make sure the ball is in the goal net. This is what always differentiate a true beat team from other team. Chances, is the thing here, strong team dont waste chances but the weak ones throw away their chances.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People keep asking me to borrow money, some of them for betting on: June 01, 2024, 07:01:11 AM
It is obvious that most of us know the rules and consequences of gambling we wouldn't try to lend money out to someone who wants to use it for gambling. What annoys me the most is that some people come to borrow money thereby hiding the purpose of taking the loan. Yeah, in most cases it's not compulsory to share the purpose of the loan to anyone but you can identify which sector whether health, education etc. I still think it does not make sense for anyone to borrow loan for gambling purposes, the loan should be denied because there are probabilities that the loan may not be repaid back.
9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How did/do you handled a gambling addict story. on: June 01, 2024, 06:41:05 AM
Let me show you a part of the miserable life of a gambler. Although gambling is not legal in my country, I will tell you how much the horror and bad effects of online gambling can affect the life of a common man. There is a gambler in my community who was a shoe seller in his early life but got addicted to online gambling and forced to sell his shoe shop. He has gone from a one-time shoe salesman to an addicted gambler after losing gambling bets. His wife and children now lead a life so miserable that words cannot express it. His wife is suffering a lot of torture for managing the gambling money and now the gambling wife is supporting the family by begging and taking care of the children. A family that once lived a very prosperous life has now become destitute only because of gambling and destroyed a beautiful future.
Am sorry to say this and i mean no offense but at the same time i meant what am about to say. The man is stupid, stupid enough to sell his shop to gambling. If he is successful though shoe making of cause he gets a lot of money that he uses to take care of his family and as well still gambling. There will still be some good life even if he is addicted to gambler, highest there would be some days when he will gamble all the money, he as supposed to give to his family, but the shop still remains. I always said this every time. If we are gambling or investing or anything that has to do with risk, we should always maintain our source of income and not put everything we get from there into investing or gambling, it is not ideal.

    • What small actions have you taken to combat underage gambling in your locality or online?

    Looking forward to your thoughts.
    This is a unique question. My little efforts were to take action in combating teens blow the age of 18 to not gamble as they do not have the right mindset and they are not fully aware. I tried my best to share banners to local gambling shops and stickers that strikes a bold warning for people under the age of 18 to not enter the local betting shop.

    Although most of them still hid and go into gambling but i think a word is enough for the wise. If they choose to remain adamant and don't follow good advice i don't think they would want to stop it at that aga entirely.
    11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Religion. Beliefs or Choices? on: June 01, 2024, 06:18:43 AM
    The reason was simple, religious people believed gambling is owned by devils.
    I can't remember anywhere in the bible that said gambling is of the devil. And there are no religious groups that have included gambling as a sin their doctrine. What i know is that the religious people consider gambling as an irresponsible habit and such habits is one that Christ do not support as a good behavior. There is a popular story in the Bible were traders, and gamblers and so many other stuffs were taking place in the temple of God and Jesus came and chased everywhere out destroying what they came with. He was angry that this kind of activities should be done outside the temple and not within the temple. Which means gambling can be done anywhere else outside the temple and not to be considered as a sin.

    All Real Madrid and non-Real Madrid fans are aware and know that Real Madrid are the best team to win the final match tomorrow but the situation of an unforeseen situation, is what makes people to also have hope in Dortmund that they can win the competition. It could just happen as a luck but you can’t still deny them the trophy after they’ve won.

    Dortmund spirit of sportmanship, team strength and quality should not be underestimated because they can also be brutal when they use what they’ve have at hands well to their advantage. Dortmund can also win and we cannot overlook the situation if it warrants to be so.

    I know that this two teams are showing the agility and confidence to secure a win tomorrow but it is only their team strength and collective effort in the match tomorrow that will determine who the winner of the champions league finals will be. Real Madrid still remains the favorites but Dortmund can always try their best.
    If Real Madrid are real Champions, they would win the match today. Many people have hyped the team and say they are the best in the world. They are the team with the highest UCL title record and whenever they get to the UCL finals they don't miss the opportunity to win in the final. Well today is the big day let's see what they are made of.

    The zeal Dortmund have for the final is something else. I don't think there will be any goal in the first half since Dortmund has equipped their defense line against Real Madid attackers. The formation am seeing and the connection between those players is good.

    However, i am happy for today. This is because i won't be hearing any more speculations after the match are over. Right now, i am betting Madrid to win and under two goals in the game in my first bet slip and in the second one i am betting Dortmund to win and under two goals as well.

    This is not a new method my dear. Anyone who chooses to fall for this type of scam is greedy and is a scammer as well. And if a scammer gets scammed then it fine by me. This is because it's only a scammer who would want to help an unknown person to withdraw their funds from there wallet. Wen it is very simple for anyone to withdraw funds, only a YouTube video tutorial can guide the person. Yet people feel they can scam such person. This is why being greedy is not good, anyone who falls victim should bear the consequences.
    15  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Please be careful when you download anti-virus on: May 31, 2024, 03:18:44 AM
    Hackers took control of my laptop once I downloaded Anti-virus. at that time only automatic browser was opening on my laptop and automatically started browsing various websites. At that time my 56 ETH in Metamask got hacked. Which was the first incident of 2019. Since then I don't use any cracked software and I don't use Anti virus either. I am getting enough security through Windows defender. It does not allow any crack software to be installed. Due to which no malware software is installed. I haven't been hacked since that incident
    The hackers are using the preventive measure as a means to attack now in this era. OP is right we should be careful if not we would surely fall for them. One thing i don't like doing is to download free software on my laptop. Free software are most times fake and if they are legit, they end up having less security because they removed such securities to limit subscription cost, API cost to mention a few.

    I think the prevention measures you too are great. We are meant to prevent it so we should stop using free software anymore. It is a new means to hack into our system.

    People misunderstood the technology, and they feel Bitcoin is a scam. Which if they get to understand it, they would find out that it is the people who uses Bitcoin to scam others of their hard-earned money. Since a verified wallet can have accept huge sum of money in Bitcoin online fraudsters are using it as a means to embezzle and scam huge sum of money.

    I think so many people are using Bitcoin for the wrong reason. Most are using it as a safety net to fight inflation and store value. While some are thinking investing in it would make them rich overnight. The reason for the existence of Bitcoin is written in the whitepaper it shouldn't be modified when it's not updated on the official website.

    Obviously, the casinos are winning more than the gamblers. The casino is only but a platform for gamblers to come and do their thing. Funny enough money used in paying those who win in gambling comes from those who have acquired losses. And it is a business that is self-managed. It generates the money used to manage and handle the business. What the companies do is that they take some profits from the gambling agency and pay the developers to ensure security and customers free use of the platform.
    19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 30, 2024, 06:09:58 PM
    Anyhow you gamble to win, you can continue using the strategy, if hiding to gamble is what is favouring you, you can continue using it to gamble but ensure your winning is more higher than your losing.
    I don't understand what you are saying here. Hiding while gambling is not a strategy to make wins in gambling. It is the bet and games you play that determines your wins or loses. If you choose to hide whenever you are gambling i feel you will not be relaxed and comfortable to gamble because you will be watching if someone is seeing you do so. In my opinion the most favorable and conducive way to gamble is to use your smart phone or any gadget. Then the next thing is to pay attention to our bets without caring if someone is noticing us. As far as i know it is not a crime to gamble and i choose to gambler whenever i want as long as i am not inconveniencing anyone.
    20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: May 30, 2024, 05:59:04 PM
    There was a friend of mine who visited me a day after and he was saying gambling every day draws you more closer to winning.

    I asked him how?

    He said when you keep trying luck every day you stand the chance not to miss your luck of winning, he also made reference to few people around our locality who won outrageous Money within 31 Dec to 1 January 2024, asking if I knew how often those people keep trying for them to have the winning they got.
    There is never a day gambling everyday can draw a person closer to success. If his friend was able to win some outrageous amount in gambling due to regular betting does no means if everyother person must also win if played on a regular basis. What really matters is luck. As we all knows that gambling is all about luck and when it's your lucky day you may win an outrageous amount supprisinly but that doesn't mean consistency because you may be consistent but yet always losing it all. Some people don't play regularly but often win because they give a break to study the teams and there past matches before playing, while some other don't do such but just play as they feel or follow other people's predictions.
    Your right here. Gambling every day is a pain in the ass. There is no way we can be expecting wins everyday as gambler. The truth is we would get tired of it and also the feeling of winning is exciting if we win every day then imagine losing a lot in a day and then every day. Of course we would lose a lot of money and on the process we can make lots of money.

    Most times we might fall for luck consistently and we would start feeling that we have hacked the winning process, or we are now professionals in it. Not knowing that when the days of no luck would come, we can surely lose so much that day.
