These stories are fantasy, moon tale stories. When they tell you about this stories, just know that it never happened because if you try this on modern age of gambling, you will not only lose money, you will become poor especially if you are the type of person that believes in this type of stories and after that, you will become homeless, because this people can gamble their house if the dream tells them to use their house as collateral to gamble that game that was reveal to them in the sleep. I can't even think my head around this OP to believe such story.

The people that do engage in this kind of stories are either fetish or believe something extra ordinary or more of a spiritual person who believe anything they see in their dream, who even believe what they had in a dream. The only time I remember my dream is as soon as I wake up from the dream, once it's morning I forget everything I have dream about, I'm not sure how OP has good memories to remember the options.

Ivory coast were only unfortunate to be out of the Afcon but they didn't started poorly. They were the first in group A to lead by +3 point after winning the Guinea Bissau and then faced Nigeria in their second round and that match could have eneded as draw but their negligence made them to lose because the defender kick Nigeria striker Osimhen which led to penalty. If not for that, Nigeria won't have won that match. The Equatorial Guinea they were hoping to win dismantle and disfigured them with straight 4 goals, I think this match was what upset them and because been host, it's a dishonor to their country.

There are some arguments going on but I'm not sure about it that Ivory coast might still make it to the knockout since 4 teams will be selected from the teams from group stage and since Ivory coast has 3 points, they have might have the chance. So far, we have 2 teams with 3 points and another 2 teams with 4 points, this means that Ivory coast can still make it only if it's going it be 12 + 4 teams that will be going to the knockout stage.

As much as I also want him to leave Napoli and go to where he will be appreciated, we can't deny the fact that Napoli was part of his life and career. He is known by the world when he came to Napoli, his performance did but the medium was through Napoli and he is also respecting it that's why he is still there. I watch his interview with Fabrizio and the thing he said make a lot of sense, the new contract didn't hold him down and even with the look of things, Osimhen is going to leave that team by the end of this season, too much racism and anti fans are too much, even the team he scored don't like him.


I pray his story doesn't turn to that of Mane, we all know how he was in Liverpool and appreciated there but because of pay difference, Bayern bought him and then trahs him after a season and he is now in a league of old men playing with Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia where the are using money to do what they want but what they don't have is the way Premier League and Champions League is done here in Europe.

We are all sleeping on Liverpool but the last time this team lost in EPL was in September, I didn't notice this until I just checked their stats and it has been either win or draw since September. No wonder they have been maintaining first place on the standing. Even in other domestic leagues, they are strong and breaking boundaries just like they trashed Fulham  in their last leg 1 with 2 goals to 1, they will do the same because the last 5 matches Fulham has played with Liverpool, they didn't win a single match, manage to drew only 1.

The EPL season is fast approaching the end, we are almost at 2/3 phase of the rounds and Liverpool is topping the league but despite the fact that Manchester city has a pending game. I want to bet that Liverpool are winning this, I wan this to be Arsenal really really bad but we seems like gas out. They have played 21/21 of what Liverpool has played but the only person I think can follow up Liverpool in right now is Manchester City, if only they don't lose.

You can't blame fans for showing how they love their club or their country. It's part of the game and it happened everywhere around the globe.l
Let me tell you a story of what happened when I went to watch a match in a football film house, it's common here in my place, so this boy was is a stammerer and a hard die fan of Chelsea. His club was having challenges last season and this boy argued with his friend that Chelsea are going to win Leed United because they were in relegation zone then but in the end, Chelsea FC conceded 3 goals and lost, he was mocked and when he wanted to defend himself, he bursted into cry because he couldn't due to his disability but after the match, I saw him and his friends doing their things, that's football for you.

Did you know that Ghana head coach was sacked immediately because of what happened, they fumbled and disgrace Ghana for losing to Mozambique in 90+ minutes but I think the fans over reacted, some people seems like they are frustrated and we're looking to paste their anger on the players that didn't do well in the Afcon match.

How many legitimately wealthy men show off, go and verify the top 100 wealthiest people on forbe, half of that number don't show off their wealth and they don't buy the things they don't. In fact, it's even the ordinary or average people that are even struggling financially use their balance to buy things they don't need and they are doing it for one purpose which is "show off".

We live in a society where people now want to impress each other for about little change the have made in life forgetting that life is a continuous journey and to survive it, you need to invest today to enjoy tomorrow. If you fail to invest today, you are practically failing to succeed in the future. This is what we avarage people don't understand, only few have the mind to overcome this temptation of trying to impress people about wealth.

Coming back to Bitcoin, denying yourself some comfort is good if you have the means to do it but please don't deny yourself some basic needs, just because you want to invest and be a wealthy person for investing in bitcoin doesn't mean you wouldn't wear good clothes, doesn't mean you wouldn't eat good meals, doesn't mean you wouldn't have proper health care. If you fail to address these ones, you may not live to witness your investment because a good health is a good wealth.

The school is an old fashion learning process and any financial education that comes must be align with your field of study and not the street way. If you study computer engineering, you will be school about computer engineering and how to excel in th field of engineering successful but then again, it's base on theoretical learning and not practical, even if the teach you how to design a software and how to market it for people to be convincing and affordable, if you don't have the experience it will be difficult to deliver that task, you might even forget what you were thought in school and go the street ways.

Financial education isn't about reading everything that is thought and be put in practice, I believe Rich dad and poor dad didn't have anyone that out him through, he did it on his is own without reading financial books, he was led to success by his own way of life. Even you can do yours, you just have to forget about the principle of break even point, marginal utility and demand and supply and put that into use in real life and you must avoid anything that will make you am extravagant person in with spending.

Skills acquisition is one of the best thing every individual need in their life but it becomes valueless if the government don't utilize the potential of these skills. Look at Brazil for instance, they are well known for the king of football worldwide, check the stars of footballers history, out of every 10, you will see 5 Brazil. Indians today are very good at tech skills like software engineering and other computer related skills and there government support them very well.

Come to some countries, they  government doesn't give you support even after getting these skills and it's discouraging because even in places like Upwork and Fiver, there is discrimination and selectivity before client gives you work. My country is not even consider for these jobs, and it's really discharging to be honest.


I don't have outside skills aside from my work and forum because I'm too choke up with work but if I have the time to learn a skill, I will graphics and design. This skills is still needed today despite the saturated market. If your design is unique, you will get what to deserve from the client.
That skills still stand out today because there is no shortcut to it, programming today are becoming easier and even more saturated than the Graphics because of Bootcamp and precode environment that person with programing can use to create their own websites.

You really trust a politician? Lol. Never should you trust a politician, that's the best way to avoid disappointment. If you don't expect a lot from them and they eventually get to the office and do nothing, trust me you wouldn't emotionally get attached to their ways of governing the country.

Aside from aggressive speech about Trump, he is been feared, I love that about him but the fact that he always act as if he is the perfect person to rule America makes not to believe him, he speak like he is a pro, he act like is perfect man but he is full of scandals and bad past in his profile but I guess citizens don't look at that during election, they do what they are told and then cry later when forgotten of their promises.

CBDC is a centralized system of digitalizing dollar and I think the government is only trying to used that to make people to go digital so they can be able to watch people how and where they take money to. If you are ask me to choose between CBDC and fiat, I will chose fiat because I can withdraw money from a bank and do what I wish without anyone knowing where my money went but doing it online kills privacy. It's like the way we are moving into more civilization, privacy is dying everyday and that suck.

Did you see billions of volume that is been trended on futures daily? That is to tell you that people love trading leverages than spot trading because of the quick profits. Many of them have less amount of money but want to feel the vibe of holding bitcoin profits and because they don't have the means, they sort to do futures trading.
However, many of them are clouded by greed, if not for lack of contentment and greed, why will you even be doing 25x leverage? They want to drive Lamborghini with their $20  balance.


A trader that knows what he is doing is supposed to go above 10x max, even that is risky but that's the max I think a trader should go, anything above that level is not trading neither will I called it gambling, that's an act of losing money deliberately because with 10x leverage, a 10% decrease will liquidate a trader and that is possible on a daily bitcoin candle, it's stupid to even think of going for 10x leverage.


This has been discussed and will continue to be a topic of discussion, I just feel that people will do whatever they wish to do with their money irrespective of what people view them or think about them. Spot trading is one the simplest ways to make money not the easiest way because some people does lost money there as well and will called trading a scam. Even in future trading, we have people that makes money from there just that the number is small compared to people that loss to liquidation.

Here is the reason.
A centralized exchanges is made to be simple and easy, you know why? Because the complicated aspect of it is controlled by the middle man and not the user while in the Dex, the users do both the easy aspect and the complicated aspect of the exchange. For instance when you want to buy a coin through p2p in a exchange, the exchange hold the asset and allow agreement to be reach between the two people before all trades are been settled but in a Dex, smart contract is what control activity and everything you do in a decentralized exchange and you will have to pay fees to approve everything.

Dex are very complicated to some people because the design, all Dex don't have a unique approach but a centralized exchanges are know for email, password and Authentication system to protect your self while Dex is about you and your wallet. Dex also has low volume and liquidity issues, since centralized exchanges has more people they tend to have plenty of sales and buy buy Dex is usually in few.

However, the disadvantages of centralized exchanges is always bitter, your coin can be seize at anytime, you need KYC just as you have said but people don't look at these underlying problems anymore because they always think I don't do any wrong, definitely they can't seize my money until the day the reality set in.

People love altcoins, bitcoin is not discuss that's why people don't even know what mining is about. Hardly you see proof of work coin that is having much people as proof of stake, even Ethereum that was once proof of work is now proof of stake, it's hard to see mining is been discussed and this is making people naive and illiterate about what mining is really about.

The first time I learned about mining scams was the days of cloud mining, the way it works is that they will tell to buy a mining packages, this ranges from lower package to a higher package but these scammers have affordable price to fit everybody in their list from lower package to higher package but the bigger the package you buy the higher rate of bitcoin you will get in return, they will even attached a picture of the mining farm to convince you, buy the package and start mining bitcoin and get withdrawal at the end of the month.

If you are lucky to be among the first set, you get paid to draw attention of the public and as a son as they gatther enough money, they stop functioning and zoom off, if they want to give investors some suspense they will give you excuse about maintenance before they run with the accumulated bitcoin. This scam today has gave other scammers some courage to modified theres to scam people and it's all because people don't read.

This is what project teams used to convince you guys and then you fall for them. Inflationary and deflationary $hit without any valuable thing to show the public. If Meme coins can get the hype and all kind of shilling to be pump, you still think that in 2024 words like deflationary and Inflationary really work on coins? This is not like Bitcoin that people valued mostly where circulation supply and total supply matter a lot.

Dot is having underground team issues and that's why you have not heard a lot from them, that is what happen when group of people have different idea to build a project and it is surprising to say that DOT founder was Ethereum developer that left the group to form Polkadot but they didn't get too much attention like Matic that was formerly Polygon, they are here way before even Polkadot schematic plans where put into papers.

Matic won my heart in all areas of Ethereum virtual machine but they did something last year that I see as law of karma. When Solana was sinking, one of the largest NFT project Degods were having issues because of liquidity but then can manage if they really want to but Matic lobby them with grants to come to Matic chain which they did, the news did a lot PR for Matic price and Solana sink even more because then the ongoing liquidity war was extreme but I was shock when Degods plummet when there was attempted NFT dump on Matic market, should I called that scam exit or liquidity exit? Well Matic is still dealing with SEC hunt for been tagged as security.

The truth is bitter they say but if we are to be pop and plain about some altcoins project, they don't need to ever be in existence. The smart people are quick to smell them when they are scam from far but more than half of people that joined crypto today are new people and they so cherish this new project, this is why scams doesn't go down as we expected. Some projects team needs to be arrested from seeing their white paper but we want decentralization didn't we? This is what we get because nobody access them until the scam has been done before they start hunting them.

Defi was among word that successfully penetrated into the heart of many in the last bullrun. If you should check the coingecko Defi page, you will be surprised how worthless some of them has turned, some doesn't have volume, many abandoned without liquidity, no building as they promised and if I'm very sure that before the launch of this projects, heavenly promises on earth were said to the investors.

I hope that people that were here in the last bullrun are still here, some of these coins might come back and if they do, sell all of them and never look back again and if you must look for another opportunity in this new coming bullrun, please use 3 eyes instead of your 2 eyes. I mean you should do a proper research and thorough check on the team as well.

I remember how this 3 project were launched back then and I have good feelings about them but some parameters change my opinion about them. I will start with each of them:

SUI: I started following this project immediately after Aptos was launched but because things got delayed due to FTX collapse, they slow down since they were among the largest venture capitals that invested on them but out of no where, the team returned back FTX investment that was worth about $100m and then took back their coin and went mainnet and conducted IEO on different exchange but they didn't do on Binance, that's another thing that raised my doubt, and also the launch was really rushed even the network throughput is lower compared to the testnet and now it's stuck in the monthly token dump of investors, hopefully they lock token of public sale get unlock quickly to avoid these usual dump.

Arbirtrum: a good layer two, very fast and trusted but it use Weth as gas fees instead of its own token and I asked so many questions why create a token when it's not a the product of the project but the answer I get is that it's a foundation growth and development of the ecosystem. If you observed Arb token, traders don't trade them despite how the platform is growing with total lock up values. You shouldn't expect much from Arb token.

Optimism: Another coin that is not too different from Arbirtrum but because of the Zk rollup hype is still new to the crypto so people are using it to hype the project, it's a good project to looking into this year.

My question is how old is the child? I believe from your narration, he is still below 18 years old which is below the age bracket of gambling and this is wrong in all directions. How does he even open account in the first place and how did he sent out the money from his mother phone without her consent, there should be evidence of transfer or perhaps she neglected that. The mother should investigate him how he opened the account and what influence him to do that because I think some people really influence his child to gambling.


The parent should not scared him, I know how painful it's for a mother to see his child behaves the way you don't expect but instead of been harsh towards him, ask him nicely so he can open up because if you want to forcefully discipline him, he will hide some information out of fears and he will surely go back to that gambling. I'm sure you guys don't want to lose another brother as a gambling addict.

You guys should tell him what gambling is about, the implications and the risk because he has develop the mind of doubling money from the way he's starting, who lose $15 all to gamble. You guys should be more open and free to get all information and tell him too to avoid complications.

I have accepted Fabrizio to the extent that any football speculations that doesn't comes from him, then it should be considered as fake news. Man is so consistent that even other media that has studio are way below him, his social media handles does the work for him. I remembered a time when he was asked about how he got his information from because they always seems legit and he said he doesn't even do much, even the players and agent forward him the information and asked him to post for the public to know, this shows how big he has become and respectfully delivers absolute and concrete information, he deserves this award just like Messi deserve the Balon D'or.


You guys says the Champions League like he is the only guy capable of winning it alone. He couldn't with Messi and Neymar including him together, how is he going to win it now when there has not even been a good relationship between him and PSG. He is well paid but for his age, money ought should be his least priority now, he should focus on his gallery and more things to achieve for his own personality. If he do this, money will come later, he should learn from Christian Ronaldo and his influence in Saudi Arabia today, he said some gibberish comments by comparing Saudi Arabia League with Ligue1 and I don't blame him, he is a star that's why.

If there is an award of the year that goes to the most discussed thread on gambling section, then I will say this similar question is a standing ovation because this question get repeated atleast twice in a month. I have seen this topic before and it might likely appear again. Is there reason to why or it's a common thinking that people want to retire with gambling money, this is ridiculous to be honest.

If you don't win jackpot that worth millions of dollars, how do you even retire from gambling and it's not like it's a constant flow of money from gambling, it's not a fixed money you can put mind on. If you want another thing for retirement, go and make investment or maybe start building a company today and be selling a product, if you don't have the power or zeal to continue again, then you can quit the business and sell it for a big amount so you can retire and enjoy the money for the rest of the days you have remaining on earth.

I don't think it's even ideal to ask this kind of question, how do you even retire from casino games or should I say sport games? Maybe when you win something reasonable, start a business and then use that for retirement.

I also think they were to quick in letting Mourinho live the club, I'm not too convince that they both pathways in good faith between him and Roma but I think I saw one of his videos trending on Tiktok some few weeks ago making some dancing moves, maybe he wasn't too focus that's why they let him go. Joke aside, if there is no selfish interest going on in that club, Roma are still in good place because even he last season, they needed in 6th place to qualify for Europa conference league and now they are in number 9, it's not good and the same time it's not poor to me.


Someone who knows the club is the new trend of managers teams are now using to guide teams. Maybe they are inspired by Xavi and Arteta journey so far but even if it he didn't meet to their expectations, the contract is short and he can park his luggage's and live immediately but I'm sure he wouldn't want that for himself. He will improve and do more to get that permanent place in Roma. I just hope the team connect well in order to impress the team because it's one thing to work is another for the team coperation.

This kind of gamblers feel remorseful, they don't just care about what other people feels around them, they only care about their own feelings and satisfaction. Observe very well people that love alcohol and like drinking to stuppor, they drink in the morning, drink in the afternoon and drink in the night and their is always miserable any time you meet them, they are not different from gamblers that are addicted to gambling, they play without thinking and if they do, it's always nonsense strategy that might not favour them


Some of them do comes to their senses but they must have live with that addicted life for all they care and if they later realized it doesn't favour them, that's when they quit. I have seen this guys that will use his mum restaurant money for gambling and the mom has to cry because she don't even know what to do with him anytime he use his business money to gamble. In short, never pray for any gambler close to you with addiction, they suffer from depression and it makes them even to do more stupid things that affect them and their families.
