This is certainly a very high price for this player. But Arsenal also seems to be very determined to get him. It does not matter if they are going to pay the hundred million in 18 months. It is still a lot of money. I wonder if Arsenal is making the right decision by getting him for so much money. Arsenal must feel like he’s going to be a very important asset for the team. That’s why they are spending so much money to get him.

But my question is, is the 105 million actually going to be worth it to spend for this player?


The fact that Arsenal has been shifting the bid to accommodate Rice after many rejections from West Ham proves that they really needed him and the initial price trades was just market thing, they needed him that's why they had agreed on the $105M and what I think could have push Arsenal for that amount was because Manchester City were also on the raise but pulled out as soon as Arsenal presented another and when they think it's out of their financial plans, they let Arsenal have the deal and it's now theirs to buy.

How will Declan proves depends on next season, nobody can say this is exactly what he is going to do but since his past is good, I expect him to perform well in Arsenal if they put him in good use, and I think if he do well by next season, it's another opportunity for him to increase his transfer fee to another club and so does his market value.

True enough.

Financial management is a must if you want your money to last forever, because if you don't have any idea on how to manage your funds, for sure you'll just lose it instantly by spending on things that is not even important or worthy in the long run. People who won the lottery are always one day millionaire, since they are always saying they deserve it, which is true but always spend it wisely.

This is not always true, I have seen men who don't have formal educated excel in their businesses and you will be shocked that  graduates of BSC are not are successful as they are, they are creative and money comes into their account everyday and what help them is there environment, they study there environment and learn things that are are highly needed by the people, they use money to start the business and in a short time, they make money from the business that will wow you.

If I have the opportunity to be given a million dollars, I will gladly receive it in cash and not in check and I'm very confident in myself that I will used that money and invest in a business here and I must succeed, I have the confidence that I will make more money from that money and if with time education will limit me of my business, I will engage in online schools, it's not that hard these days to receive education from the internet.

In what ways have the people living in poverty impacted in the economy?
Share your ideas on the importance of the poor masses in economy sustainability.

The people doing the menial job?  they are the low standard people and are always regard as poor because their earnings are far below standard of living and without them, the economy will not function, without them, the rich will do the hard task by themselves, without their influence, the politicians wouldn't have manifesto to campaign, without them there wouldn't be grant for low level people and in short without them, you will have to do the farming work your self, the driver who do commercial work, the barber who cut your hair, the dry cleaners who wash your dirty clothes.

There are more I can mention about poor people impact on the economy but I will drop my pen here. Wink

It is too early to make sure about Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. Because it hasn't been even much time since we entered the summer transfer window. There is a long time period ahead of the teams to make their signings and be prepared for the Champions League journey. Until finding out the final version of their squads it is difficult to be confident about something.

For me Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern munich are the 3 strongest football teams in the world in the last few years and therefore they are always among the top favorites to win the Champions League before the start of the season.
This time though it is not sure yet how strong Real Madrid a d especially Bayern Munich will really be, because both teams still need to make some important transfers in order to strenghthen their sqads. Real has already signed Bellingham while has not made any big transfer yet.

I think Real Madrid fell of badly as they couldn't even maintain first place in Laliga and Barcelona has step up their tactics and experience last season, they should be among the team that I expect to make changes in the Champions League. As for Bayern Munich, they are over rated Bundesliga, nothing more about them, they couldn't do much last season in UCL and their domestic league was won by luck, by now Dortmund will be the discussion here but still I expect them to perform exclusively in the Champions league after the summer and I for Manchester City, they should rest, the next UCL is not for them.

100 million pounds is very expensive for a striker who is already 30 years old, it is very difficult to deal at this price. It seems that Tottenham deliberately made Kane unable to win a prestigious trophy, when there was a club that could potentially sign Kane, Tottenham instead set a high value for a club that wanted to take him. Kane performance with Tottenham has been tested, he is a great striker. Tottenham shouldn't have kept Kane like this, he deserves something better than he got at Tottenham.
I prefer Kane not to renew his contract with Tottenham, he can go to any club on a free transfer and Tottenham will get nothing from Kane.

Didn't you see what is happening around Mbape, they will not allow him live as a free agent just the way PSG want Mbape to live or renew his next year contract after another season with them. There is tons of money to he made from this transfer than rather let a player live on his on will without any fee for the club, I believe the same faith will happen to Kane as well. I will love to see Kane move to Manchester United and Mbape moves to Real Madrid, I want to see how serious the Champions League is going to be by next season and the balance in English Premier League especially with the dominance of Manchester City yearly trophy.

As far as i know Lucas Hernandez has already told the officials of Bayern Munich, that he wants to leave the Club and they made a gentlemens agreement that he can leave Bayern if Paris is paying around 50 Million € of transfer fee for him. If PSG is not willing to pay that amount, then Hernandez agreed to stay at Bayern without making any problems and then is even possible that he prolongs his contract in Munich. It is much more likely though in my opinion that PSG is paying the asked amount.

I must admit that he was a wrong investment for Bayern to acquired him with a transfer fee of $80m and be sold for a given price less than $50m but he already had a fantastic journey with Bayern Munich with many trophy since 2019, and even when Tuchel joined the club, he became his favorite. He should proceed to Laliga where they only win League1 trophy and let Bayern used the money to bring Kim Min-Jae from Napoli.

Kim Jae performance this season was better than Hernandez, as Kim appeared through out this season with 2 assist and 2 goals while Hernandez appeared less and also suffered with an injury after the World Cup.

Since gambling companies are registered companies, is it possible that they have stocks? Is there anyway to invest in a gambling stock? Or let's say gambling related stocks? I am thinking that if this is possible then this could be one of the ways to get the best out of gambling and investment, I can't help but think that most gambling companies in the U.S are almost successful, only little to none run of out business in few years, gambling is a lucrative business, so I need answers if this is possible. Thanks

You should know that it's not all gambling companies that are registered, many of them are operating illegally are they are not authorized to run such kind of services in some particular Countries, and as such they have violated some rules and regulations of this countries. So, I don't think with such behavior, they will be allowed to have stock even if there is anything like that. In general, I have not seen any gambling company that have gone public with stock, they are always limited to their services, the only few ones I have seen that run crypto gambling are the companies that issued token as a service for their players to enjoy some benefits or VIP options in the gambling website but stock, I haven't seen anything like that in my life.
1048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Easy or hard to quit? on: June 24, 2023, 10:01:27 PM
Quiting is a difficult task that can be hard for us to fulfill but with time, what give us the money will also call us to come back and make bets again for us to make more money. Gambling is not easy to quit even though we are nit making anything from it. We might keep having the believe that surely one day we are going to make the crazy profits of our life. Those who have successfully quitted gambling are the discipline ones since everyone of us may have some certain level of discipline in us.

If quitting will give peace and ways to restrategize a gambling skills and winning rate, it wouldn't bad to give it a shot, remember they a ram that goes back went back to prepare to come back strong. At some point in life, quitting is also part of winning but it's unfortunate how some people see it as a shame which is very bad to think that way. In gambling, I don't think there is anything bad in giving in a break particularly when lost is been observed many times, it will save you time and money instead of putting those money on unnecessary games, it's better you called it a day and then comes back another, even the expert out there also know when to quit and knows when to give it a break.

PSG left quite a few pillars in its main squad this summer. if an agreement with Madrid is reached, losing Mbappe will not be good for PSG for next season. maybe to compete in the French Ligue 1 still can. but when talking at a higher level like the Champions League, it will be very tough for PSG. they must quickly reform their squad again. otherwise they may be late for a very heavy start to the season.

You can not force things and that's how I see Mbape situation in PSG. The France League club are trying to be smart and woke ahead of Mbape but I'm glad he still stood his ground, his future cannot remain in Paris Saint German club, there are other best across Spain, Italy and England that all want him and been unable to have Champions League in his career, they should sell him to whomever is ready to afford him but I think now that PSG are now the ones willing to free him, I doubt if there will be any club that will be ready to pay expensive transfer fees.
1050  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The reason of why Bitcoin is good for trading (for me) on: June 24, 2023, 05:34:47 PM
Since i was bought btc for only holding but some time later i got skills about trade then really i enjoy it. There are lot of people here to choice btc only for long time investment and this idea not bad to me. This way very helpful for making profits with very low risk. But you have a best experience which time is good to buy and sell.

It's about a choice and what we all like, some traders preferred BTC/USD because it's the only pair that determines the move of other trading pairs, they feel trading such will help give them their goals unlike Alts that are controlled by some whales and cabals that control the market the way they like, bitcoin might also have whales that still control this market but the influence is minimal when you compare it other altcoins, this is why it's many traders favorite.

However, you should know that there is a draw back to how BTC/USD is traded, it can only be enjoyed when you have much money to trade it, you can't enjoy trading BTC withess than a $1000, any funds that is less than this amount will be a penny when bitcoin make a moves, but it safe to say that trading such pair is the most safest trade in the crypto market.
1051  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Better to have a trading knowledge than depending on signals. on: June 24, 2023, 05:20:05 PM
Don't get me wrong. I am not condemning buying of signals perhaps it would be more accrue-able, profitable and less vulnerable for you if you're knowledgeable in crypto trading and  decide adding up with buying of signals if need be. Learning about crypto knows no boundaries.

It's absolutely wrong and a bad practice to engage in signal, it makes a trader to be lazy without focus, it makes trader become unanxious of its trades, it make a trader become over dependent and the zeal to learn becomes a problem, once they are used to that practice of signal, it also becomes too difficult to convince them about the self trade practice and personal knowledge, this is why any trade that is willing to trade and plans to stay long in the game need to avoid free and paid signals, most of the time you may not make anything from these signals if you calculate the average trades in daily, weekly or maybe monthly.

Before making a final decision for the use of a particular casino, we should ensire to make a serious research about them to know and have the knowledge about whom they were, what record do they have convincing enough for us to take as reason why we should stick to them alone, many individuals and organizations are now creating new casinos for business, some already had a track record of good, some bad while some were just setting in for the very first time, we must have interest in getting every required and necessary informations about these platforms before hand.

This is right.

It's our responsibility to check whether a casino is to be trusted or not. It's good to ask people for their opinions and suggestions, but nothing beats finding the needed information by yourself. Researching is very much needed if you don't want to be fooled by paid advertisements and shilling. You have to find the right casino for you based on your collective experience, research, and from the advices people who have experienced certain situations, mostly unfavorable ones, so that you won't also stumble upon the same misfortune of not knowing better.

There is no point that comes close to this, as a gambler that is willing to take risk, he should be ready to take care of his bets and account balance, the responsibility is to gamble wisely and it's another thing to protect what you use in gambling and the game that you have. When a casino doesn't have good reputation, they can manipulate result and give you fake one, they can give you wrong outcome and always win, this is why it's advisable to do reputation research if the casino is clean and they don't meddle with players money, and also don't have the history of doing tricks to gamblers money.

Can such a fight influence the crypto and stock market world majorly?

I also know bettings would be made for this, incase it goes down as reported. Who are you betting on?



Lmao!!

At first, I thought this was some jokes but it's making over the internet but I think it's just some ways of Elon getting the attention of others. Since he took over Twitter, his competiting with other platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Tiktok, billionaires don't have time for fight or unnecessary fight that wouldn't add to their wealth. Elon and Mark would fight, live that jok.  Grin

If this is something that would occur, I will bet on Mark to win, I have seen him do some couple of exercises and some lifting and Elon is always busy on interviews and making jokes on Twitter, even if the odds is low on Mark, I will still bet on him and will ignore Elon, you know those who make mouth before real fight always lose at the end.  Cheesy
1054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 23, 2023, 06:10:06 PM
With the way Chelsea are going, they might even decide to sell the fans, I still find it hard to believe that Man UTD are killing themselves to get Mount as if he has so much to offer. They have Casemiro and some other better midfielders that are even more better than Mount. Where I think UTD need to be worried about should be the wingers, especially that of Anthony, he hasn't played anything since he arrived at Old Trafford.
I feel Manchester United need to go for someone who's more creative that can get the goals and assist coming week in week out, to me Mount to UTD is a no no for me, it would be a waste of money.

Seems you don't know the situation of Manchester United, they need every resources to fight in Champions League and Premier League by next season and this is why Erik is doing everything to set things in order, it will be better if he buy all the needed players now formally in this transfer window than wait to take action when they are struggling, if not for some skillfull coaching, Manchester United wouldn't have finish the Premier League a long the top 4 teams, there reason for cheap and good players is justified in my opinion.

Mount maybe average in your sight but players change when they change environment, we have seen average players turn good baller when they have good playing ground like the way Haaland did, it's possible to see Mount do the same if they successfully but him and moreover Casemiro was aggressive last season costing them in many match, they can not continue to rely on him.

2024/25 will be my first bull run and I have been patiently buying and holding for over a year now.

Just wondering for those who were in the last bull run what it was like and how fast prices pump during the peak bull times?

Any advice on how to prepare when it comes to being ready to take profit?

It will hurt you if market doesn't go the way you want, it's better you lower your expectations and toe whatever comes after that. However, you should be prepared for what's coming, and get ready for any dump that happen after that, just have thought of small loss and some profits to avoid disappointment. Though, what you gain depends on what type of coin you have,I expect you to do your own research and buy any coin of your choice and hold, if you are lucky to buy traders favorite, you will make money like you have never seen before.
1056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 22, 2023, 09:53:33 PM
After such a disappointing season Chelsea need a serious rebuild anyway, so buying a good coach is not enough, no wonder so many players are leaving the club. The real question is, who will be in their place now?

Yes it was a disappointing season for Chelsea football club and the rebuild has just commenced. Pochetino is a good coach, and he was signed after mutual agreement was reached, and i believe he can change Chelsea fortunes. Also, Chelsea are making excellent sales, they have a big squad and it is only normal to cut out and sell players who wants out or are excess.

It's too early to start praising Pochettino, not like his having an exceptional quality before he cam to,Chelsea, he was just a normal manager like ever others, he was lucky Chelsea were interested in him but I want to see how he is going to make some modifications in his squad and shows them they can do it indeed and not much dramas within the club, I want to see if they will bring a better replacement of Havertz.

Quote

The sale of Kante, Koulibaly, Harverts, Ziyech, Mendy and KOVACIC are excellent means for Chelsea to recoup fees and also offload their squad. The new coach gets to work with the new signings. remember chelsea signed up to 10 players in January

They have raise more than 110 million USD from the sale of this players, they can use it takes  get new Champs from smaller clubs at lower prices, Pochettino should never buy into hyped like the way they bring Enzo Fernandez to Chelsea after the hype and at the end of the day, it was low performance to the team.
1057  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Difference between pi and bitcoin on: June 22, 2023, 09:42:12 PM
Hello guys,I learnt that pi network is a crytocurrency that is beneficial in the community ecosystem that you can mine with,I want to know their clarified differences and if the pi network and bBTC does same functions.


PI has made promises to lot of people and it's amazing how everyone is waiting to sell theira after listening but it looks like PI has been in existence (2018) before some users even came here and I marvel at their ignorance how they think PI is better than bitcoin, how? Ethereum that is largest by market capital and most sort after don't even boast like the way PI miners talk about this shit coin, if shit coins are not better, I heard the PI network also runs some ads which is why they are have been fooling the owners about mining that is not validating any transactions.
1058  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Service or Bot for effective and timely DCA execution? on: June 22, 2023, 09:14:49 PM
I know that the Bitcoin halving is coming next year, and the bull run will follow after that, based on my research. Everyone is doing their best to prepare. As a small Bitcoin investor, I don't want to be left out either. I have stepped up my game. For me, the best and least stressful method is the dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy, where I invest a certain amount of money periodically. However, I have encountered a problem. I struggle to keep up with the schedule because I have many other commitments outside of the Bitcoin space. Sometimes, I simply forget to DCA at the time I blocked off on my calendar for it. This requires discipline, but fortunately, there is technology available to help. I am wondering if there is a service or bot that can assist with effective and timely DCA execution?

What you will gain at the end of the halving is dependent on the type of coin you had in ur portfolio or wallet. If you have BTC in your plan, then right now is the best time, bitcoin price even went as low as 25k some days ago and today, it's back to $30k, that's good profit and I expect to see some big moves before halving and after halving and then comes the bull run.

If you have altcoins in mind, do that now that the market is shaky, it will help you when the altcoin season begin but they happend some months or weeks away after the halving event and from the way altcoins outperform bitcoin, you will make more profits in buying altcoins.

With your schedule, I don't think to buy a coin is that a difficult task that will you forget to follow a calender. Set up a timer and alarm to remember you, it will take maximum of 2o minutes to get that done in Binance exchange.

What stopped you when the price was low? don't let the sudden increase make you rush into the market- learn to control your emotions.

What some traders don't understand is timing of the market, as a trader who is waiting to gain something or add some profits to his wallet, the right time to make profit is to buy when the market condition is bad or even worse and they sell when everywhere is green. Smart traders exit the markets when everywhere is green, that's when you will noticed that some people open short position, it's always the best option for traders but people don't learn. I don't even know why traders would choose to buy in a greenish market when the intention is to buy and sell and not to hold but if it was for holding, then there is nothing bad in this approach, holding and been patients is the role of holding.
1060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How the casino takes money from you with a deposit bonus on: June 21, 2023, 11:40:40 PM
I also avoid claiming deposit bonus because I feel that the bonus is a trap.  I agree on the calculation of @OP and claiming the bonus is like giving the bonus back with our fund.  We all know that in a casino, the longer we stay in a single game the greater the chance to lose.  Aside from that claiming bonus had another set of requirement and often time the wagering requirement triggers when we lost our deposited bankroll.  And deposit bonus  got consume after we lost all our bankroll.

I am part of the positive move that bonus should be scrap by casinos, it's a good marketing strategy but at the end, it's like a slavery money you can not utilize the way you want, what is the use of it then. Instead of giving this huge bonus in 300% or 500% as we do see in casinos, they better give in small amount so that gamblers don't have to struggle for ways to rollover bonus and still end up what they have won already and casinos always win and who knows may be the amount are just virtual, not real u till a request of withdrawals are been initiated.

However, I think free things is not everywhere, it's just a strategy to keep players revolving around there casino and no matter how people see the bonus as a trap by casinos, there are some players that do make money from the bonuses they offer and that's why we see cases of account abuse in casinos, it favors some and it doesn't favor some players.
