Knowledge is constantly being refined, new research will reveal that some knowledge we have are becoming obsolete, and there is a need to stay informed. Failure to stay informed puts you at risk of making decisions based on old knowledge and information, and that makes you more prone to making wrong decisions.

This forum helps a bit with providing up to date information, it is now your responsibility to make sure you are a reader. 

Then as a forum member, do not only depend on the forum for information, be actively engaged in other channels, podcast, etc that always have new and current information on cryptocurrency and bitcoin, so you are always fresh with knowledge.

The saying that Never settle for less is common saying used often by people in reference to different situations, to traders and trading, it is a 80% true and an applicable statement. As a trader, you should never settle for a strategy that is less, not earning enough profits from trading with your many effort. It is your responsibility and duty to always try to improve on your strategy as a trader by devoting to learning and interaction with other traders. If you settle for the strategy that earns you less, you are the one limiting yourself from getting more. Do not settle for less, do not settle for the bare minimum.

That was a very painful exit for Mali, they were already just preparing their minds for penalty kicks, but Ivory Coast never stopped believeing that they could win it, and they did. Maybe the prediction of a final between Nigeria and Ivory Coast will be what we will see.

Cape Verde is drawn with South Africa, and it will be another game to either be decided by extra time or penalty kicks. The winner of this game will determine who Nigeria will be preparing for next in the Semi Finals.

You see Lookman, you see a hungry player, you see Osimhen, you see a passionate player. These two players have been very important to the Nigerian attack.

If you say skill is required to invest in bitcoins, so potential investors may never invest because to them learning a new skill may be difficult.

Do you really require a skill to invest in bitcoins? I don't think so. You only need to knowledge on how to invest, that is where to buy bitcoins and then knowledge on how to keep the bitcoins you will buy safe from theft and loss.

Investment in bitcoins should also be for the long-term.

If you just want money without the work involved in trading, then you will easily be drawn to pay and subscribe for signal groups that will just be giving you signals to make profit from. You can never become extremely successful trading if you depend on signal groups to trade, but you will just be turned into a dependent trader. A newbie to trading needs to understand even before they start the learning process to trade that it involves long term learning to be very successful as a trader. As a new trader, focus on learning first, do not be under pressure to want to start earning in a short time of just knowing basic trading methods and strategies.

Everyone is a target, the moment you choose to start investing in bitcoins, you make yourself a target.

It is hard to steal, but not impossible. As an investor, don't ever think your investment too safe that you start becoming careless about safety.

Bitcoin can be stolen and not only by hackers, your bitcoins can be stolen by friends, your family or even people you may never suspect.

Simon have been the most active player for Nigeria, he has really played his role. I am disappointed with Zaidu and Iwobi who I see as the weakest links in this Nigerian team. Nigeria lead by just a goal which is not safe, we need another goal in this game to feel safe because Angola are still in the game and can change things in a split second. Osimhen playing well but not as active as he was against Cameroon. Lookman remains our best finisher so far. It will be big if Nigeria make it through.

Venturing into something you have no experience, knowledge and no one to guide you will increase the risk you stand to face and your chances to fail or victim a victim of loss.

If you just choose a business to start and a location to establish the business, and you did not make proper enquiries about the business you are starting, the challenges involved and security situation of the place where you are establishing the business, so you can know the security measures to use, you have increased risk in your physical business and reduced your chances of profiting well. If it is online investment, and you are not aware of the risk, you have made it more risky for you.

A business person with more knowledge on physical investments will consider it less risky to online investment where he has no real idea, and likewise an online investor.

Some of the countries borrowing do not actually have the money to execute the projects they want without affecting other sectors of their economy, so there is nowhere to pull out money from, and instead of printing more money which they can, they choose to borrow instead from world bank and other countries that can lend to them to avoid having too much of their money in circulation that can lead to inflation.

In your country, there are corrupt leaders borrowing for no reason and embezzling borrowed funds meant to execute projects.

Although wins and losses in gambling are normal things that happen to every gambler, you will be concerned as a gambler and it will bother you if a certain sportbooks you play on or league you see as attractive has been flagged as having cases of of fraud in sports like match fixing and other forms of rigging.
You will be bothered because you know that winning has no longer been left to the future to decide, and chances of you winning is no longer fair when you are just predicting and making choices based on mere analysis.

If you can willingly and without remorse place a bet against your favorite team and players without any odd feeling, you do not really love your team and players, making it that you are gambling for money and the wins.

If you find it difficult to bet against your team or favorite players, and will rather not bet than bet against your team, you have real love for your team and players. This is my simple view.
 

If it is actually a proverb about gambling that was formed by a gambler who was Chinese then the proverb will only trigger an appeal to people who have some gambling experience or already considering gambling.

To others who are not gamblers, this proverb will only mean to them to take more action about their lives, take more risk to see how lucky they can get, Luck does not only come from gambling.

It is a matter of preference, the forum is accessible from both your phones and computer, so use the one you are most comfortable with.

Before taking the loan, Paying back within two years time will look very achievable and the time frame very long, until when the loan is collected and the time begins to fly. Two years may feel like two months.

Borrowed funds will always put the borrower under pressure, unless there is an intention not to pay back.

It will be different if you are offered an interest free, pay back anytime or not kind of money from relatives as a way for them to help you. That kind of money can be accepted and used for investment in bitcoins.

Many businesses have already shut down, and many that are still in operation are merely hanging by the thread. The economy keeps making it difficult for consumers to buy from retailers and retailers from wholesalers.

The lack of electricity and high cost of running petrol and diesel generators have made it so that those who cannot afford to now install solar power to keep their businesses running are considering shutting down or have shut down already. (for businesses that depend on electricity)

The increase in exchange rate has also affected the cost of importation, which has increased price of goods and products.  Businesses that depend on importation are biting their teeth's, the tax and clearance cost for their goods is becoming unaffordable.

For local businesses, they are also affected, transportation cost has increased too which has contributed to the prices of goods going high.

The situation is really alarming, we are just at the start of this administration that does not seem to care.

Picking other viable options to invest in like real estate is recommended also. You should not sell off all your bitcoins for another investments, but can skim off some profit if you have invested well in bitcoins, to have other good investments outside cryptocurrency.

Aside the unwillingness to make payments in Bitcoin due to high transaction fee which I personally consider not totally true because transaction fees are not always high, there's also the unwillingness to make payments because of people's perspective and views towards Bitcoin. Many owners and hodlers of Bitcoin see Bitcoin as investments and not to be used for daily transactions especially in local shops so they are all unmotivated to use their Bitcoin for transactions when they have fiat for it.

A trader should not seek the easy way to make money. As a new trader, there is the usual temptation to join a signal group, even some of your tutor will try to convince you to join VIP groups with fees for profit. First step to failing as a new trader is to join these groups and start depending on them because it is an easy way to make money from trading.

As a trader, you will not be able to build sustenance in the market like that, If you think that you can, that is your failure already waiting to happen.

You know that opinion on this differs right?

Not every one agrees that money has to be involved before it is called gambling.

This is one topic I started last year that really showed that opinions on what gambling is and is not really differs from person to person.
Without money, does it still qualify as gambling?

Thanks Royse, for the opportunity of working with you for a week.

Till next time, all love!
