3 months? the ATH was 2 months ago, if you invest before that you're in profit. Anyway the down is just around 3%, such amount is normal and happened in other assets, if you worried if your investment down even as tiny as 3%, I think you're better to invest in something that won't make you rich e.g. time deposit, securities, ETFs etc.

They give a guarantee small APY and it won't make your capital down.

Would you agree that it's better to not increase your needs in first place?
Then what's the point of living?

You work, you improve yourself, you get better job, you earn higher salary, you take two-three jobs, you open a business, your business are generating money, you earn your first million.

Even after you get your first million, you still not want to increase your needs?

There's nothing wrong to improve your needs as long as it give big impact to you e.g. healthy foods, gym, courses.

Except it's consumptive e.g. car, jewelry, high end products etc, get ready to lose when your financial aren't no longer as good as before.

From the rumours making the rounds, Real Madrid is read to include Camavinga plus a multi million euro payments for the services of the PSG maestro in midfield Vitinha. Real Madrid looks forward to strengthen their squad especially as Modric is on his last legs for the club. It's understood that Modric has agreed personal terms with AC Milan and iwill no longer be a Madrid player after the club world cup. PSG is a big financial team and wouldn't let the heart of their midfield go for any amount.
Honestly that's a good deal.

Camavinga's market value is higher than Vitinha and Real Madrid willing to give extra money for PSG.

It must be a lesson for Madrid's scouting team to always working harder in scouting potential players that still underrated. They must not always sign a well developed player, which may cost them a lot money.
Vinicius, played for Flamengo, Real Madrid spent 45 Million Euros to get him.
Valverde, played for Penarol, Real Madrid spent 4.2 Million Euros to get him.

Now? each of them worth 150 Million Euros.

Manchester United hasn't made many transfers yet. They paid a very high transfer fee for Cunha and are currently trying to sign Swedish striker Gyökeres. If the Swedish striker joins Manchester United, Manchester United's offensive line will be much stronger. They need a player of this quality in the Premier League. They had big problems in the forward area last year and struggled with strikers who were not good at finishing. They also need a few defenders.
I think Gyokeres isn't a player who're ready to play in Premier League, he need to adapt and get taught by the coach. It's rare to see Manchester United is successfully train their new youth generation or develop a potential player from other teams.

That's why if Gyokeres join Manchester United, it might ends his career.

I think 40 million is still too high considering his statistics which are not impressive enough during his time with Juventus but maybe things will change elsewhere and Vlahovic can show his extraordinary talent later with Aston Villa but the problem is not about the price tag but his salary which is quite high. Aston Villa must consider it very carefully because Vlahovic could fail to give his best performance in the Premier League.
It's still better.

Vlahovic: 29 matches, 10 goals, 4 assists, 40 Million Euros.
Nunez: 30 matches, 5 goals, 2 assists, 60 Million Euros.

The strategy to sign a high salary player is only sign for 1-2 years, if he play good, it's as expected. If he play bad, Aston Villa won't loss too much.

Other countries should able to give a fuck to Trump.

Trump is acting like a tantrum toddler who always reach whenever other people making move, more and more US will lost their power because China is leading in economy. Trump has nothing to fight against BRICS except throw a tantrum by threatening to increase tariffs on other countries.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Your Name Become an Economy? Why Building Your Own Personal Brand Matters on: July 07, 2025, 08:30:53 AM
We need to separate between personal brand of your skill and personal brand for business.

It's very recommended to build personal brand of your skill because it can't go wrong, you have skill and portfolio, people will trust you. Even you have a criminal history, as long as your skill are very demanding, people will hire you.

While personal brand for business, personally I think it's not that good. Let's say Kim Kardashian have her own perfume using her name as the brand, as long as she keep promoting the brand, has no bad history and she still alive, her business will survive. But, what if she no longer promote her product? what if she die? I think her business will slowly die too because people use her product because of her, not the quality, affordable etc.

Look at small creators on YouTube or TikTok (or our Bitcointalk): some of them turn their hobbies into income, just by building trust with their followers
Nope, users in this forum aren't require to build trust with other users in order to earn. I see many users without positive feedback are participating in signature campaign including myself.

No offense, but have you check feedback on his profile?

Well, Dušan Vlahović, his career at Juventus contract is actually until June 30, 2026. However, rumors say that Juventus will indeed ask for the contract and sell him to move to another club. And even, Juventus wants to help him get a new club and make it easier for the new club to sign him. This is indeed the reason because it is not enough to cut off the wage.

One that is currently quite paying attention is Aston Villa. However, there has been no official negotiation between the parties.
His market value down to 40 Million Euros, which is acceptable if Aston Villa want to spend for such amount.

But I doubt Aston Villa can afford to pay his salary, currently the highest salary in Aston Villa is Tielemans, 7.8 Million Euros, that's 2.5 times lower than Vlahovic's salary. Vlahovic have to cut down his salary, Aston Villa might able to pay half of his current salary if we judge based on his current performance.
9  Economy / Economics / Re: Is a University Degree Still Worth Anything? on: July 06, 2025, 06:41:02 PM
Depends on where you live.

If the jobs vacancy require degree, pretty sure university degree is important.

If you live in a country who choose experience over degree and other theory thing, university degree isn't important anymore.

Many people that I met usually say this to me "the most important thing of school is you can make friends and relationship, they will help you in the future". So, I think university is important for the social benefit than the thing you learn since you can learn in work.

Decentralization does not mean being independent from the rest of the world or immune to everything.
Yeah, if majority of holders want to sell Bitcoin, it doesn't mean Bitcoin is no longer decentralized, but it's decentralized, but it just most people choose to be like that.

I think if we see many big news happen in the next six months, it won't affect Bitcoin that much because we're in bullish season.
11  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why does war always affect the price of Bitcoin on: July 06, 2025, 06:20:45 PM
It's only affect if a big war happen, if it just a small war and no global medias publish the war, they won't affect Bitcoin price.

The reason why big war affect Bitcoin price is many people are trade their coins and they making move based on global news, in uncertainty, Bitcoin isn't yet a safe haven, hence people like to trade it in short term.

It seems you were reading my mind when you made this post Grin

If they wanted to seal the deal, they should get it done with and move to the next. The fact that we keep hearing about it every now and then makes it look like they're not serious.

To be honest, I'm skeptical about Arsenal pulling this deal off because of Sporting Lisbon's asking price. Arsenal is not known for breaking the bank for any player, and I don't see them doing it for Gyokeres. But I hope I'm wrong.
Arsenal signed Rice for 100 Million Euros, so I think they will do the same to get Gyokeres.

Signing Gyokeres is more make sense rather than Sesko, they ask for 120 Million Euros. With such amount, better to sign Vinicius who've been proven playing in top team and high pressure match. Cheesy

I hope Gyokeres can adapt with Arsenal, it's quite hard for player who play in small league will play regularly in competitive league.

But their offense seems on top and still great, so PSG defense will have some trouble. PSG offense will need to score a lot to make sure that Real scoring doesn't change it. I do hope that it becomes a very fun game and we could definitely consider this would be the "real" final. Because whoever wins, has a higher chance of beating Chelsea at the final game.
PSG are a complete team, this season their strength and defend are top notch, Real Madrid's defense even worse than PSG. The only time PSG get concended was against Botafogo, other than that, they always clean sheet. Real Madrid were struggle in previous match against Dortmund.

PSG will high likely to win, I don't see any weakness in their squad in this season.
14  Economy / Economics / Re: How popular is salary lottery in your workspace? on: July 05, 2025, 03:11:05 PM
I wonder does all participant who participate in that salary lottery consider that as fun?

It's really different in my place, even you only ask 10% of their salary to buy gift/cake for birthday of each employee including themselves, they still find it's hard to do and better to use the money for important needs.

Many of them complaint about this, if they have an option to not participate and also not get the gift when they're on their birthday, they will choose this option.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ FIFA Club World Cup 2025 - USA: Discussion Thread ⚽ on: July 05, 2025, 02:56:26 PM
More and more the odds are getting equal, so there are more bettors think Bayern Munich will win this match.

Anyone do you think Fluminense FC has chance to win against Chelsea in the semifinals?
People including myself have underestimated Fluminense, so I think they will have a chance to beat Chelsea. Al Hilal can beat Manchester City, Fluminense can beat Al Hilal, so anything there's a possibility. Maybe, Fluminense might able to beat PSG/Bayern Munich/Real Madrid.

Madueke is on his way to Arsenal...

Not bad signing by them but not one of the best options either.  Tongue  He has been inconsistent during his time at Chelsea. He has talent though but still needs to develop his skills more.

Arsenal is a good place for youngsters to get better. Madueke is still 23. He can put much more into his current performance in time. I wonder how much the agreed fee is. Chelsea signed him for 35 million euros.
Again? I think whenever Arsenal want to sign a new player, it must be from Chelsea.

Although Madueke is still young, but he's too expensive for such performance, there are many top wingers like Mitoma, Kubo, Eberechi Eze etc. Arsenal aren't a team who known can grow and improve their players to be top notch, mostly they sign top players and let them to grow.

I speculate Madueke will not be a great player in Arsenal.

It is true that infertility do not only occur in women it also occurs in men too but the high level of casual sex relationship in this generation
Is alarming, You will agree with me that the women I mean the girls are the ones in the receiving end of the story in the situation of getting pregnant and probably refuse to keep the pregnancy by indulging in taken substances that might have a negative effect on them not being able to concieve tomorrow because they don't want to give birth to a child without being properly married, to protect family prestige pride and dignity or religion, this actually act is of the increasing side in most of our societies today which of course is one of the major reason why I brought up this topic of discussion, a lot are really happening behind the scene.
It's their own mistake, why they choose horny rich men over well mannered Average Joe? Cheesy

If they choose well mannered Average Joe, they won't end up getting pregnant before marriage because Average Joe respect with their spouses. Nowadays they only want money and skip everything because for them money is everything.

Personally I don't see men are wrong in this case, they give something to their women, it's not the women who give the men. Men pays to get the women's body, that's a fair deal, if the women are getting pregnant, that's the risk from this side job.
18  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Pregnancy before marriage or after marriage, which do you prefer? on: July 04, 2025, 04:43:49 PM
So I don't see anything morally bad in getting a woman pregnant before getting married to her. Believe me there are lots pressure/ challenges in marriage and you don't want childlessness to add to that list. As a man do what will give you peace of mind.
How about your wife cheats you or not able to be a mother?

I think it's more dangerous too living with irresponsible wife and child rather than living with responsible wife without child. We can't know the true character of our spouse, usually they will show it after marriage (formal relationship), not just a casual relationship.

If someone want to get married with a main purpose to raise their child, they actually can raise their own child without need to be in relationship https://www.arcfertility.com/patient-resources/family-building/single-men/

Many of my friends choose PSG because they have an attractive and aggressive game. In my opinion, so far there has been no tactic that is effective enough to stop PSG's dominance. PSG once lost to Botafogo but I see that it is not a problem because the defeat is still not an answer to counter Luis Enrique's tactics. Bayern Munich also cannot be underestimated but in my match I also favor PSG to win the match.
Arsenal were able to stop PSG's dominance, they were just unlucky and not able to break PSG's defense. Bayern Munich are the same with PSG, they lost in Champions League because Neuer was injured, this make them forced to let Urbig play, his performance was terrible.

PSG vs Bayern Munich are equal, since the odds for Bayern Munich is higher, betting on Bayern Munich would be more profitable with the same winning chance.

Takehiro Tomiyasu's contract has been ended, Arsenal not want to renew his contract.

I think there's a drastic drop with his performance, Hajime Moriyasu didn't even include him on Japan's senior team squad. Pretty sure he will play in mediocre team in lower league, probably in Bundesliga since top Japanese players usually on there.

Or maybe Como want to sign him?
