I think that you're underestimating the mentality that owned by mbappe. As a profesional player and losing in the game was a common thing but i do believe the lost against argentina will not give a long term impact for mbappe's psychology. Mbappe itself was in the same team with messi. The competition in the club will continue but as long as both can working together and that will be so good for PSG. I think that mbappe will not make PSG lose a chance to win the UCL.
Mbappe will be mentally recovered but it takes some time for him to make it happen.
Losing wins is a consequence of the match, but losing in the final is painful. But I don't think it makes sense to see a player mentally affected more than one month after loss, it's just not professional at all. Messi and Neymar can help him recover mentally, they are in the same team for the same end goal.

Mabppe, Neymar and Messi will always be expected to give PSG its first Champions League title. This season they are on a good track, Messi is in good form and mentally while Mbappe also didn't seem too troubled with his form in the final. He and all the other players will return to the team, I hope the relationship between the three is always good.

For you how was your own reaction/expression in your first time of purchasing and owning bitcoins, was it so different? I would love to know!
Without basic knowledge and knowing how the market works, the fear of losing money is inevitable.
I was paranoid about bitcoin at first because of the fast price fluctuations. I was afraid of losing the money I worked hard for, but after a while the fear went away as my knowledge increased.

So my first impression when I bought bitcoin was fear of losing money. Maybe many other people have the same impression at the beginning, but that's the stupidest story I have as an initial impression. Now everything has changed, even I don't want to sell those bitcoin before my target is reached.
1443  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which kind of situation will force you to sell? on: December 21, 2022, 04:52:42 PM
If within next one month bitcoin goes up to $100K, maybe that it's time for me to sell some of it.
My sales target is $100K, but for 50% of the total I have because of course I still expect something higher from it.

Most of the medical costs are covered by the government here. So I don't think I would sell bitcoin for medical treatment unless I had to spend more money on it. Family needs, daily needs so far are still met by monthly salary, but for something bigger I still have some savings. As for me, I would tend to sell gold instead of selling bitcoins when I have an urgent need.

If comparing with Ibrahimovic then it is very different. Looking at their way of playing is also very different. Ibrahimovic didn't put out much skill to get past opponents and he made the most of the ball finishing. Unlike Ronaldo, in his youth he ran a lot and passed opponents, and at the moment it is not very noticeable because his physique does not support it. So it feels like Ibrahimovic is kind of better in old age than Ronaldo. Of course, Ronaldo should be able to model Ibrahimovic's way of playing, not moving much but having the best finishing. At the moment it is best, because improving abilities will already not be able to, because of its age.
The basic difference between the two is the position they play. Ronaldo tends to play as a winger instead of a center forward because of his skill at dribbling. Ibrahimovic tends to play at centre-forward and waits for accurate passes from various angles, he is much like Haaland.

I don't know why we have to compare Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic, they are both different and that is clear. If Ronaldo walked more than he ran, then I'm sure he wouldn't find himself getting played. He is not the same as Messi, nor is he the same as any other player. Ronaldo needs to move, there he is.

I doubt if man utd will sing De Jong again, because they have already signed Erikson and he's performed very well. This is just a Rumour to get attention of the fans. I'll not bother talking about it, because it won't happen. Manchester United midfield is very solid then before. The only position Manchester United needs to replace is the top 9. To replace Ronaldo space. Not De Jong, Manchester United coach Ten Tag should focus on Cody Gakpo bid.
Regardless of whether Manchester United like De Jong, I don't think Barcelona will let him go for such a low price. De Jong is a smart midfielder, he can still improve as long as the coach can exploit his abilities. This season he has been very good at Barcelona and I hope Barcelona will also keep De Jong as long as they can.

Exactly like you said, Gakpo should get extra focus from Manchester United instead of De Jong. Gakpo is also ready to be able to make a big contribution to Manchester United and his quality is not inferior to De Jong. But I think Gakpo has become a transfer that will be prioritized by Manchester United based on the rumours.

Giroud still has the chance to play in Serie-A, but the physical factor that is easily affected by injury makes Giroud have to be careful when playing. if there is an accident on the field, as was the case with Ibra, Giroud will take longer to recover since the age factor and the frequency with injured history so far. However, if he manages to protect himself from potential tackles or body charges that injure him, I think Milan have the chance to play Giroud longer.
Giroud's performance during the World Cup was quite impressive. He scored 4 goals to help France be in the final. But unfortunately, he only got 40 minutes of time in the final because France failed to develop their game. It's true as you said, Giroud still has the chance to play at Milan for a little longer, he's still good as a striker.

Age will indeed affect his physique and fitness, it will also affect his performance. But this season, Milan can expect him to play at a great level until the end of the season.

Between adoption and investment, I actually wonder what did you teach your boss about bitcoin?
Here you seem to just tell your boss to invest in cryptocurrency where you don't tell him about its use as currency. I wouldn't be entirely sure that your employer would be happy to pay you in bitcoins if that were the investment asset, but how did that happen?

All your points don't seem new anymore. These are some points that have been very commonly discussed but many seem to fail to do well. You may know that not all traders are able to control themselves not to be greedy, they will panic when there is a big correction and that's not just once.

After all, self-control and emotions also have to be good points to profit in this very volatile market. You must have good management which will help you in the end. Analysis is also needed, it will be complex.

Argentina won its 3rd World Cup title. Messi won his first World Cup title after a long struggle and under pressure. There's been a lot of pressure on him so far because everyone expected him to do that for his country, there's been ups and downs and some sad stories until he finally manages to give that gift to the people and fans of Argentina. So congratulations to Argentina and Messi, the dream is now real.

One thing that I highlighted in last night's final, I don't understand why Scaloni pulled D Maria in the 64th minute of the second half.
Lionel Scaloni thinks they have won, so of course he needs to keep it going by adding one players in defence. I think it's normal for Scaloni to do that because France basically missed out in 70+ minutes, but the inclusion of Coman and Camavinga has increased the effectiveness of Mbappe who ultimately managed to get France to score 2 goals before the end of the second half.

Now the world cup is over, so I hope some topic about that world cup gets locked soon by the OP or maybe by the moderators if anyone reports it. About duplicate topics, it's certainly against the rules when another topic is still active, but I do remember about one warning every time I open a self-moderated topic.

This is a self-moderated topic. If you do not want to be moderated by the person who started this topic, create a new topic.

I can think that some users will probably create their own topic just for this reason. So that's why some duplicate topics are fine, but of course I don't think it's necessary when the OP isn't restricting people from posting his self-moderated topics.

now it is obvious that inter is no longer in the running to win the scudetto! he would need more than a miracle. 11 points of difference are difficult to recover, Napoli should lose all or almost all direct matches. Inter's goal now remains to qualify for the next Champions League
What you think is impossible always seems possible in football. It doesn't take a miracle to reach the top of the table, Inter just need to improve their form and win every game. I don't think you can guarantee that Napoli won't drop any points during the second half of the season either, so it's always possible for other teams including Inter to overtake Napoli from the top of the table before the season end.

1453  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Small Scale Businesses should accept Cryptocurrencies as a medium of payment on: December 17, 2022, 01:48:18 PM
Another reason is that cryptocurrencies have not yet been widely accepted by all countries. There may be a lot of businesses that are very interested and willing to use crypto in their business, but unfortunately, if they live in a country where crypto is still banned, they won't be able to use it. 
In addition to legitimacy, with the price volatility of cryptocurrencies also making many people afraid to use them, certainly no one wants to lose a few % of their value after only a few hours of receiving payment.
Most countries do not ban bitcoin primarily as a trading and investment asset, while most countries still do not legalize it as legal tender. Legality is the reason why bitcoin or crypto users in my country cannot yet use it as a legal currency, but I can assure you that trading and investing is legal.

I don't think price volatility will be a big issue as businessman/ trader can easily convert their bitcoin to fiat when they use exchange to accept payments. But maybe service fees are an issue to think about so trader or businesses that adopt bitcoin will have to adjust the price of their goods to make profit without additional problems. It could be that the price of goods will be slightly more expensive considering that traders have to pay trading fees as well as withdrawal fees if they have to exchange their bitcoin and withdraw fiat to a bank account.

I've spent some good quality time on here in the forum and I've realized it's factor not feelings.
Most of the activities based here are facts not feelings  and there were times I wrote on topics and deep down my heart, I was expecting some real much accolades but ended up with nothing but lots of criticism, at some points I was letting my feelings decide for me but I stopped and started facing reality and then I realized life in general is about facts and not feelings.
Put your feelings aside and take advantage of constructive criticism. You must be strong while trying to grow, your emotions must be kept under control and you must not give up when criticism comes to make you stronger. Ask yourself if that's all you can do? Then put the pedals close to your feet, avoid a lot of hesitation and reach for it.

Ideally, constructive criticism is needed but you should stay on the axis of having strong assumptions as long as you really know what you're doing. Motivation is important, besides your journey is still long and don't give up.
1455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 16, 2022, 05:37:00 PM
Really? I just found out about this, it's possible that Raphael Varane and Ibrahim Konate won't be able to strengthen France in the final match later. I think this happened so suddenly, even though during the semifinal match against Morocco Raphael Varane was still healthy as usual. Rabiot and Upamecano are important players besides Raphael Varane, I hope they get treated soon and can recover before the final match against Argentina later.
I have been hearing about this issue since yesterday, but at that time there was no confirmation on how many players had the virus. I don't know, it's bad about France but I really have doubts about how many players will miss the final. Things can change when the medical team is able to make a recovery effort, but of course missing a few players because of this problem will benefit the Argentinian side.

Whatever it is I wish the best for the French squad. I'm expecting a really great final in a few days although some players will be out due to illness. If France has it, then what's the bad news about Argentina?
1456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 16, 2022, 02:38:17 PM
The last opportunity should not be wasted, all Argentine players must build a solid partnership to help Messi win the world cup trophy towards the end of his career with the Argentine national team. So far, Messi really wants to win the World Cup trophy to complete the trophy he has won, all Argentine players must be able to realize Messi dream by beating France in the final.
I'm not a fan of Messi, but seeing Messi's enthusiasm for wanting to win the World Cup trophy is huge, I feel sorry for him and at the same time hope he can win this final.
Both Argentina and France's performances were very convincing. But I tend to expect Argentina to win because before that France also won the title in 2018. I would be very happy if Messi and his team win it at this World Cup, the performance was amazing and it will support his dream this year at the Qatar 2022 World Cup. But anything can happen, and there's a chance France could also defend its title again.
1457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing $350,000 because of a friend, what would you do? on: December 16, 2022, 02:29:04 PM
Well, it's natural to be mad if such thing happened but just think the other way around. What if you lose if you insist your choice and your friend just avoided the worst and you ended up being grateful to him.
Basically we never know how lucky he is if he bets and doesn't avoid it. Maybe he could win it, and maybe he would lose because winning and losing are just possibilities. I have heard the same thing from several gamblers, for example if I bet $5K on Saudi Arabia's win over Argentina then maybe I will win $500K at the end of the match.

How many days, months or years can I become a Hero? Maybe depending on the quality of my posts, I keep trying to make useful posts for all. Cheers friend, I started all from scratch. I don't think it's necessary to beg, but show you can be a useful user.
Just maximize your ability to make quality posts, I'm sure sooner or later you will achieve it. After all, Hero or Legendary rank isn't everything, but if you can really focus on quality, you might not realize that you're so close to your new rank.

Meanwhile you can still maximize some thread to earn merit either by reporting them for merit source or in help thread on local board. So don't worry about it, you'll be there soon and I wouldn't be too surprised if in a month or so you'll be at a new rank. Keep the spirit and keep your quality.
1459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 15, 2022, 11:49:46 AM
Of course, Argentina has a chance to win the final, let's not forget that the World Cup in Qatar was missed by such stars as Benzema, Pogba, Kante due to injuries, and with them the French national team would be an absolute favorite, but even now it looks harmonious and is a real contender for victory and Argentina will not have it easy.
The duel between the two PSG strikers in the World Cup final will be very interesting. Argentina has Messi, while France has Mbappe. So far, the two are competing as the top scorers where each has scored 5 goals. It would be great for both of them to share this record in the end, but maybe both of them will forgo individual achievements and focus more on good teamwork.

The probability of winning is almost the same where it is possible for me to think 50:50 on who wins the final. It's a great final for both teams, but it will probably be great to see Messi lift his first World Cup title before retiring from football.

Some people are bothered by rather unimportant things, and I think this is one of them. There are forum members who have hundreds or even thousands of members on ignore, and my advice to the OP is to add to ignore those members who quote members who are already on his ignore list Roll Eyes
LOL, I hope that's not the best advice for the OP, but if the users quoting them don't differ much from different users then it can't hurt to ignore both.

After all I won't be bothered by quote other users quoting posts of users I've ignored, I also won't bother reading posts of users I've ignored even if he's quoting mine. It's the way it should be.


What is certain is the fact that many abuse the quote option, and it would really be good if there were some rule about it.
Pyramid qoute, is that what you mean?
