After reading highlights of tnc from vv181's comment. This wallet looks far from the competitor of Metamask, only ignorant people will use this.

Even trust wallet looks better in comparison as people can at least export seed/Private key, here you will be on mercy of binance in case something unfortunate happens or for some tech reason wallet doesn't work properly momentarily, you'll be hanging on Binance without any refuge elsewhere. Once Dot network was not working on Trust wallet, so I imported the seed into other wallet and it worked out, this is flexibility of non-custodial wallets.

I'm out, don't even wanna check.

England's next match will be interesting to watch where England's stakes will be to be participants of Champions trophy while Pakistan's stakes will be to qualify for semis. Likely we'll see interesting contest.

To not see England in champions trophy will be a different feeling.

Holland also want to be taken seriously.

From the looks of it, nah they don't.

England makes 339. Thanks to Dawid Malan (dude's shots go like rocket), Stokes and Woakes (nice rhyme there) that they manage to get this score, I have questions on not-out given on Stoke's lbw.

There was spectator holding sign, 'We best Bangladesh!' — it was so funny. You can add Netherlands too, pretty sure they ain't gonna able to chase this total. England's achievement this WC to beat bottom tier teams.

I like Hive (https://hive.blog being frontline dapp). I'm quite biased here because it was first crypto that I was heavily involved in (I interacted with Steemit actually, Hive is fork of it — most of community moved to Hive from Steem after Justin Sun's takeover).

It's feeless and due to that p2e games (splinterlands, dcity, dcrops) on it are so much fun, no annoying fail transactions and paying unnecessary fees, less scams — it's like this place is different compared to rest of crypto which is riddled with scams, active community, plenty devs who always try to make useful dapps for ecosystem and contribute in their own way, account names (these evm chains are making big fuss out of it, before ENS came, Steem/Hive already had account names.

I made a search about it to see how much profit there actually is (in my country, India), came across this quora Answer [1] — to make 1 KG of pure groundnut oil you require 2.5-3 KGS of groundnuts (180*3= 540 Rupee cost) while groundnut oil that gets sold in market is for same price of 1 KG peanuts, so they must be adulterating it.

There is no point in opening such unethical business, and most people gonna buy what's cheap.



[1] https://www.quora.com/How-profitable-is-groundnut-oil-mill-business

it will be less profitable to start with groundnut oil business, instead starting a edible oil business is profitable compared to groundnut oil.
here you can read this article for more knowledge.
and there is many other options available to start a small business, read my post.

Same reasoning applies to any other edible oil business. If you wanna make 100% pure, you will have to make it expensive to cover the costs or adulterate it and sell it cheap as other hundred brands.

In first scenario, there will be buyers but far less, as most people prefer cheaper option. In later, it's unethical but depends on individual.

If we try to find business ideas in specific niches, like oil, detergent, flour, etc.
This type of businesses are less likely to fail, and are easy to start with low investment..

Idk about investment, but if any business develops product that's helpful to the masses, it'll succeed. All successful businesses boil down to this only.

When you can't work anymore then financial stability becomes a necessity, so I guess around 50s and should start making right investments at 30?

To achieve financial stability is easy, you just need to work to get paid at minimum wage and spend your money carefully to survive. Actually most people are financial stable, but they choose to overspend their money for entertain, someone can bought Nissan Versa which only cost for $17K, but they choose to buy Lambo when both of them has a same function.

If one has means to purchase lambo, it's fine, no? Otherwise what's point of life? Everyone dies. Often people die with regrets, your friend fullfilled his desire at least.

When one's basic necessities are satiated, they start looking for pleasures further and spending money on luxurious things in one of them.

I bring up this to talk about financial freedom. What is financial freedom to you? Is it about having a certain amount of money that is required to have financial freedom or to have an amount of money which can potentially give you freedom in the future?

If there is some need then I should have enough money in my bank account to satiate that need, this is financial freedom for me. There is no end to 'wants' so I used the word 'need' specifically here.

Afghanistan team's overconfidence/arrogance after getting early wickets also played part in their defeat. It's not win until you actually win.

I am not sure whether it is lack of experience or overconfidence. From what I have seen, this is not the first instance where Afghanistan lost a match, that was firmly in their grasp. Australia was down to 91/7, with Maxwell and Cummins at the crease. Maxwell wasn't able to walk so he was restricted to hitting boundaries. The required run rate was well over 6 per over. At this moment, how hard it is to defend a total of 291? All the effort put in by the Afghan batsmen (especially Ibrahim Zadran and Rashid Khan) was wasted by the pathetic performance form their bowlers.
Australia was struggling at 91/7, but then something remarkable happened.
Initially, Afghanistan's bowlers did a great job in breaking down Australia's batting order. However, they faced a setback due to Maxwell and Pat Cummins, who created a historic partnership. Maxwell took an aggressive approach and launched an attack on Afghanistan's bowling. The result is now known, as the entire situation turned around.

Dropped catches to be blamed. If you drop a catch, aggresive approach is expected, it's free life.

Well.. no one expected Maxwell to finish the match by the 47th over.

Well, I expected, I mean there was nothing else to expect.

We could say lack of experience too, because more often that not we are overconfident just because of our lack of experience.

Shahidi sent Mujeeb to do over where Maxwell ended the innings, he was already expensive, meanwhile Naveen-ul-haq had one over left and done better, got two wickets already, why was he not sent? There were no point to hold him for next overs becuase it was already do or die.

Those dropped catches count too, they must be regretting it immensely, such a waste of easy win, that too over team like Aussies, great morale boost it could have given them.

Their coach Jonathan Trott only showed emotions during last moments of game when Maxwell was becoming trouble, otherwise most of inning he was like blank face lol.

Those newbies are right, on Bitcoin not much profit can be expected but with alts much more, they rise when btc rises (no matter how useless they may be, just existence is enough).

However, you are also right, stick to top altcoins and bitcoin. Top altcoins are nice balance between safety and profit, Bitcoin is ofc safer than all.

Credit should go to Cummins as well, he held his wicket so well, without him despite Maxwell being there nothing could have been done. It was wonderous to watch Maxwell last night, how his shots either find the gap and go for four or for a six.

Afghanistan team's overconfidence/arrogance after getting early wickets also played part in their defeat. It's not win until you actually win.

I thought my gamble on Afghanistan worked out until Maxwell came and ruined it all.
1399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ICC WORLD CUP 2023 DISCUSSION THREAD! on: November 07, 2023, 09:49:15 PM
Unbelievable innings from Maxwell, he hits a ball, either it goes for a six or finds a gap and boundary.

Imo, it was wrong decision from Afghans to give Mujeeb over when there was 1 left of Naveen-ul-haq.

Maxwell's catch drops cost them a match, if you drop catches like that you don't deserve to be in semis, honestly.

I find this hard to believe this is happening with Australia, or are they deliberately playing bad to make troubles for New Zealand and Pakistan?
