621  Economy / Economics / Re: Almost All Countries Affected by Inflation, Opportunity for Bitcoin! on: October 29, 2023, 01:47:31 PM
Inflation is such an unavoidable thing. And Bitcoin, on the other hand, is still not the perfect solution. Inflation is not possible with Bitcoin having a limited supply, but price volatility is still an issue if you want to pick Bitcoin as a store of value. Because of this, many countries are still not comfortable enough with choosing Bitcoin as their primary option. Also, I don't think Bitcoin is on that level yet to prevent inflation for a whole country.



Management is the only problem of inflation, when you look at the US inflation, there economy tumbled when they printed large junk of dollar bills, that was what happened when there were trying to be persuasive on everyone but do you see how they managed to reduce that figure to that value of 3.7%, this is how economy should function even when things cannot be perfect. However, there are some countries whose inflation has been on the rise since the post covid 19 time, they have literally battled inflation for months and nothing has change and that's because they are not good in managing inflation, Nigeria is just one of them.

Nevertheless, Bitcoin isn't the only solution to this crumbling economy. A country will die quickly if they out all her resources when bitcoin is crashing. An asset that is too volatile isn't a best way to kill inflation, it might even be worse if bitcoin crash as it use to when bad news happen.

Quote
Inflation could be prevented when all the civilians provide together. Simply the government holding Bitcoin does not ensure the prevention of inflation. We need to improve our economy to prevent or fight against inflation. The moment we improve ourselves, that helps the country to grow. Bitcoin preventing inflation is an individual thing. If you own it then you can improve your condition. And as everybody does not use Bitcoin, it is still not possible to improve the whole country's economy that way and prevent inflation.


When a country has too much insecurities, too much corruption, too much ethnicity,racism and religious differences they mostly used their entire resources to fight inflation instead of channeling it to other aspect of the nation. Having bitcoin alone cannot stop inflation as well, there are many things that cause inflation, the country can even decide to hold bitcoin and inflation might still be on the rise. Individually, bitcoin is good to hold but what if it has not appreciate in value when you need it, remember that inflation is measured every month, bitcoin don't grow every month.

Presently, should we say it's good the way bitcoin its been tied to dollars? Dollars is not backed up with any resources but to my understanding, bitcoin is a product of great energy surge. We shouldn't let bitcoin tied to dollars but bitcoin standing on its own. What could decide the durability and value of bitcoin? I have some ideas..

Most big assets if not all are most times tide to dollar. If you are having problem of it been tide to dollar why not make a suggestion for example, maybe since bitcoin is one of the sort wonders of the world asset, tighing bitcoin to another asset that is fully backed will do good.

There is no way bitcoin can exist without the dollar, is there an asset that is originally backed by another asset that you think it's a good enough? You want gold? What determines the price of gold, isn't it same dollar? You want to tide to s&p500 and Nasdaq? What backed this asset? What about treasury bills? They are all backed by the same currency you are trying to avoid.

I don't really see a problem here, 1btc is equal to 1btc, even if dollar should fall, bitcoin can inherently stand on it own and be use as measure of values, that's why we have sats as the smallest divisible of bitcoin. Just imagine if 1 sats can be use to buy a pasta in the store, isn't that cool? Yea I think it's.
623  Economy / Economics / Re: Is there a formula for Bitcoin starters? on: October 28, 2023, 11:56:50 AM
Starting Bitcoin investment with little capital will be very challenging mostly if that happens to be the major survival option of the investor. And in cases where the investor plans on using the proceed to solve their needs they might end up selling when the price have dropped just to settle the pressing need of that time.

As experienced investors are there measures that can be imbibed by new investors with little capital to help boast their capital. Some will want to mention patience which I will agree to but in situations where the money is needed to meet an emergency need how to you tackle such situations. Your formula might be a saving approach.

If you have little money and overwhelmed with much problems and you plan on using it to buy bitcoin, then don't. You know why? When you have a little challenge tomorrow, you will undoubtedly sell the bitcoin and selling the bitcoin is not my problem but selling it a loss is even the worst thing a potential investor should try to do. Instead of wasting the capital or to make it becomes choppied, use it to solve your personal problems.

On the other hand, if you little capital and but will not be touching it anytime soon, you can buy as much as your capital can get but a quick reminder, your capital will determine the amount your are going to make even if bitcoin should do 10x from your buy target price. That said.

Whether you plan to buy small bitcoin or in large chunk, do DCA also know as dollar cost average where you buy bitcoin in split as the price drops lower and lower so that you will have your price average with little to no loss by the time you have bought all bitcoin your money could afford. After that, look for a secured wallet if possible a hardware wallet and keep everything there and make sure that the seed phrase is properly back up in different location, just for safety reasons and then you are good to go.
624  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will BNB prevent the moon of TWT? on: October 28, 2023, 11:36:13 AM
I have read and heard some connections between Binance and Trust wallet. Although the former is an exchange while the later is a non custodial wallet but there is this link of CZ between them.
This this not actually why I created this thread. The reason for this thread is to know if during the bull run, will the binance BNB prevent Trust wallet TWT from mooning?
When the FTX bankruptcy happened, TWT gained price, that was when I decided that I will invest in TWT.
  • What will be the fate of TWT during the bull run?
  • Is TWT good for DCA?
  • Will BNB prevent the moon of TWT

CZ and Binance has stake with them, they invested in them and in return where given large portion of TWT, that's how there connection came about but Trust wallet is an independent company that doesn't depend on Binance bit of course, the relationship cannot be deny, that's the reason behind all this motivation and whales around them. If not for CZ influence, they are not worth upto coins like SUI and Aptos but when price crash some months ago, they seems to be strong in recovery when anytime bitcoin pump.

Just like you said, When FTX collapsed, tbe token fell badly but that wasn't all, all the subordinates projects like Solana SOL, Near protocol and Matic. You a similar damage on Binance if they should go Bankrupt, BNB is going to be the first coin that will be affected then follow by the subsidiary projects like TWT as example. However, not saying is not possible but Binance is not going bankrupted.

TWT is good projects, they have good use of the token as utility inside the wallet, they also have backers like Binance and other venture capitals that invested on them, the coin will do well if you consider it as a long term investment because from the listing price, the project has gone far.

Hi,
go to Trustpilot and look up the customer reviews for Kraken, then check out the 1 star ratings. There is a flood of them complaining about having their accounts closed for not apparent reason.
Now I am not sure if those reviews might possibly be fake, or written by bots. At the same time it does seem really concerning. What is your opinion on it. Does Kraken maybe have issues that are brewing in the background, and would it be wise to not use them anymore?
Generally I've mostly read good opinions on them, they are often brought up when the subject is trustworthy exchanges. I just didn't know what to think about that absurd amount of negative reviews, and something seems fishy about it.

Don't trust centralized review platforms, they are most of the time paid to write something good about them mostly the good part, they will forget about the to criticize them of the bad state of their platforms. I don't know much about Trustpilot I can't say for sure the authenticity of those reviews, Kraken exchange might be a centralized exchange that many people might not like but those reviews are rubbish and ridiculous, get your facts on your own.

You can check on this general review and things you need to know about the exchange, in addition, you can check the forum especially the scam board for more threads about Kraken to see if there has been complaint about the exchange. Don't forget to deposit a little amount to test the exchange services, putting all you have with them will put you in more risk since you don't know much about the exchange. Good luck.
626  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins that are good for long hodling in this season. on: October 28, 2023, 10:45:08 AM
I believe will saw the new shift of many altcoins price that made the green light to remain stable in some days to make some altcoins hodlers to make a new decision to apply for potential altcoins that will make their profits surplus when the real bull run show up in the market soon. I guess Ethereum and Binance are very good in long hodling because, since I became regular in the crypto market, I discovered that this two altcoins carry huge population to stand in second and third position in the market that is giving me hope that they are good in long term hodling and, it will be difficult for their customers to experience negative results like what other customers are experiencing from new altcoins in the market. Do you think this two altcoins are good in long hodling in this season? Because I have seen some reason that made me to apply for long term in this little shift of the price of altcoins which the bull run will show up fully next week.

Just for some demonstrations. Take a view at this two image below:



The first image is Ether, from it's all time high loss in red, the % needed to reach there all time high. Similarly bnb



BNB, from it's all time high loss, the % needed to reach there all time high.

What am I trying to show you? Just because you met them at that price doesn't mean they are not at loss for some people and from there current market cap, to attain back the previous all time high, there is much more money to be mint from stablecoins to move that price.

Another factor that will determine the growth of the two coins you mentioned is that two image, they are going to face a lot of hardship in going back there because many holders are waiting for the price to pump. Where will they get another 215B dollars to move the prices, not to talk of bnb as well.

My little advice, as you plan to hold to hold for long term, stick with that in mind but having much assumption of saying they will not loss is overconfidence coming from you, you never can tell what will happen tomorrow. Buy, secured them in a personal wallet and hold for long term and be optimistic while holding.
627  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance is reported by Senator Cynthia Lummis on: October 28, 2023, 10:21:19 AM
binance was sued not only this time, before that I found this thread Topic: Binance Exchanger - U.S. Senators sends letter to showcase proper Finance in their letter, The senators ended their letter by requesting "documents and answers" related to the list of questions by March 16. The documents requested by the lawmakers include "full copies of all balance sheets of Binance and Binance subsidiaries from 2017 to the present," and their internal anti-money laundering (AML), countering the financing of terrorism (CFT), and know your customer (KYC) policies and procedures.

Political instability is what drives this, and its all about US interest, they don't value any peace. I am of the type that don't take side, but I value peace more than anything and what preceed peace after is Humanity. US clearly lack that from there dictionary, instead of them to make hasle to provide solution between the two countries, they are fighting Binance when they see Babies are been masacare by the two countries, this is not time to pick side, saves life first and then come back and sue after peace between Izreal and Palastene.

There is no hard feelings about Binance and CZ, if they have documents that they are guilty, they should proceed and do, they both have legal person to show up in the court and anyone who is guilty can be fine for their action. Another thing I don't quite understand is how US have power to climb on Binance everytime, isn't there power limited to Binance US since it is only US people that use the exchange, that I'm very certain that CZ and the team will be careful not temper with that exchange to avoid this kind of problems.
628  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance is Rolling Out Copy Trading? on: October 27, 2023, 01:30:13 PM
The exchange makes money on fees, it is beneficial for them, that as many traders as possible trade on Binance, and how successful this copy trading can be, is no interest to them. Repeating after someone means actually giving someone the opportunity to manage your funds instead of you, in my opinion, this is a very bad idea and will not bring anything good. When it comes to your money, you need to be very careful and trust only yourself.

Trading is a difficult job to some people, Binance is only trying to bring people that are having less interest to trading, more like a short cut but this technique of trading will burn plenty of hands. It will be profitable perhaps when we enter bull market but even the real traders avoid trading during bear market, only the traders with coconut head(stubborn types) trade that time and mostly lose money because they trade futures to short market and we all know how dangerous future trading can liquidate accounts quickly.

As you also said, more fees for exchanges. Binance isn't the only exchange I have seen with this featurebof copy trading, okex has it already. I'm not sure about Kucoin but if they don't yet, they will do that as soon as possible because they wouldn't be the last people that will not enjoy the fees.

I will not advice any trader to indulge in this sham trading, in the long run they will run out of market because been too independent on another person is really really bad for a trader. Mroe like a trader that copy signals from one telegram group to another and when the Telegram group is deleted, you will be helpless.
629  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How much could you earn in a day ? on: October 27, 2023, 01:10:08 PM
I dont know where to begin and i have tried looking for someone to talk to regarding this. its really silly questions. Im going to just put it out here. hopefully someone can give me some clarity.

Relax brother, when you are in a journey and you miss the road, don't hesitate to ask questions for directions else you will be stuck on the wrong direction forever. Not a bad thing if you ask about what you don't understand.

Quote
1. Is it possible to make 1% on a trade within a short time frame as in a few hours or a day ? Would that also inturn mean that you would make 10% on futures with a 10x leverage? I would like to elaborate more on this i just simply dont know where to begin. It would be nice if i could have a conversation with someone who has experience on the matter.

You are obviously chasing the profit without duly understanding trading. My first question to is this, are really good in setting up a trade? The second is are you good in spot trading. I will assume that you are good in spot, but if you are not good, learn to do that before you even think of futures trading, it will fastly liquidate your capital than the profit you are asking.

To your main question, profit from trading really depend on how liquid and volatile the market is,if you want to trade BTC for example, there are days that it can consolidate on the same price for a week, that means you will not be making a lot but when there is high volatility, you will likely make more than 1%.

Quote
2. In a normal trade when you buy a certain coin means there is someone else selling on the opposite end. does this rule apply the same for Futures ? Say im going to put in $1000 Long on coin X . does that mean it will only fill if there is someone Shorting the same coin at the same leverage at the same value of $1000?

This question indicates that you don't understand futures trading. When you long a position in futures like $1000, your order will be on the orderbook until another trader short on your similar position, it's just like bet. When you long and the market goes up, the person that short will be paying your from his position, your PNL will be increasing and when the other trader that short the market will be having negative PNL, it will remain that way if the market continues until a point of liquidation will be reach and all will be loss to the traders that long position and Vice versa, that's how futures works. It's more like betting on future price of a trade.
630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cash out or keep playing? on: October 27, 2023, 12:27:21 PM
It is not a rule that every gambler must follow, but it is a way to avoid losses we might experience when we continue gambling. By continuing to gamble, we can experience bigger losses and even lose all the money earned from previous wins. Every bet does have a 50:50 chance but when we start gambling, our chances of winning will decrease while the chances of losing will increase. And if we are not observant, we can lose and lose so much money that it could cost us all our money if we don't stop immediately.

Taking a short break can also be a solution to avoid loss and reduce emotions or tension after gambling and experiencing loss or even winning. By resting, we can reduce tension and think clearly about what to do because we have been gambling for some time. And during that break we can see how big a chance we have if we still intend to continue gambling so that if the chance is not big, it is better for us to stop gambling immediately.

The only thing that bring this quick conclusion to cash out is doubts and fear. However, trusting in your ability and predictions sometime chase away this self confidence in your own predictions. It's a rule that you must cashout and even, only few gambling platforms has it, there are some platforms that will never give you that option to minimize loss.

I have had games in the past where I cashout and at the end, your initial predictions played well and then it becomes a regret because what this gambling platforms does is that when they give you an option to cashout, your pay out will be slash by 8 or 9 even if you have just two or three games left to be play. They are doing it so they can reduce the amount they will pay you if your prediction went through. I don't like it at all, once a game is stake or wager, I remove my mind from the money because it's has been risked, if it comes home fine and if it doesn't, then we go again tomorrow.

In general I like to enjoy my wins so I withdraw at least %25 of my money that I won from casino to spend it for usual things. But sometimes, if I feel more hungry (or thirsty) for more money I completely leave it away in casino to use later. I would personally suggest everyone to withdraw %25-35 of their money to enjoy life. Then you can return back to gambling. When you never use money that you win, it feels really dull. I don't want gambling to be routine like working, it should be entertaining.

How do you manage to get 25%? Gambling platforms are smart people, I'm not sure of your betting platforms but before you get upto 25% or your deposit, you will either pick to withdraw your deposit with little change or live it, that's what my bookies does all the time because of you are not willing to give them your capital, you wouldn't have there own either. It's either you live the stake u touch or you complete cashout the capital plus some tokens.
631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: October 27, 2023, 11:23:27 AM
Most teams do play more of defensive games and I noticed that was the kind of game Young boys tried to play yesterday. They knew it it would be very difficult to defeat a team like Manchester City so at least a draw would be better. Manchester City toping the  group stage is something that everyone expected and they are more likely to win the league again if other teams do not play better. I wont call it luck but based on their performance they deserve to get the title again. Although with the likes of Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Barcelona and other good team it would be difficult for Manchester City. These clubs i mentioned are capable of beating Manchester City. If am wrong then let me know but Arsenal has already proven themselves.

They mostly play defensive games when they know that they have little to make chances. Young boys were bonus to Manchester City, if you observed in the first 40 minute of the game, Manchester City were tackling them but there were stronger, the ball possession says everything about their performance but Manchester Cityater broke in and had a goal.

They knew Haaland was a threat, they counterweigh all he had on him, didn't allow him through but on the second half, Rodri was the man he was depending on and been an elderly state man of the team, he played his part and assisted him and that's how he had a goal but reg, overall Manchester City were above Young boys in performance and experience.

Since KDB was injured, it seems that Manchester City is not performing better in the domestic league, so they need someone who is right to replace KDB, at least providing mature passes for Haaland so he can score goals, because every time against a strong club, Haaland seems to have difficulty scoring goals, I think so too Guardiola should have placed another player on the front line to accompany Haaland.

I'm not too sure about "performing better" but they are good, the only person that has slack in his performance is Haaland, not that he is not good but comparing it to last season, he was ahead of this, he was clearly everywhere even in the media but ever since KDB went injury, that juicy assistance is not coming again. He is trying to survive here and also in the Premier League. This is why is good to be a playmaker and also a good taping, Haaland was never a play maker, it KDB and him that completed Manchester City team.
632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 27, 2023, 10:53:54 AM
Improved performance began to appear in the last three matches, Chelsea managed to win over Fulham and Burnley, in their last game they also managed to force Arsenal to share the points. The positive record in the last three games will be motivation for Chelsea when facing Brentford, victory is their main target to improve their ranking in the standings. Chelsea must maintain its performance to reach a better position. I am still skeptical that Chelsea will be able to align themselves with the teams in the top four because the competition in the EPL is increasingly competitive, but Chelsea still has the opportunity to reach the Big Six position if it is able to maintain its performance.

The fans not me are overwhelmed with Chelsea October performance, they have so far draw 1 win 2 which is great, if they have the same momentum in them Brentford should not be a big task for them to accomplish, they should use this match as a compensation for drawing against Arsenal instead of them to keep tight to win them, it will be great having +3 because it will boots them directly to top 6.

Pochettino should use the same formation he used for Chelsea against Arsenal in Brentford, in all the matches they have played, this is the only match they had more short on targets, all were from the striker and the midfielders and they foul less, unlike my Arsenal that were fouling all around. This might not be the complete remedy to win Brentford but I love the way they were prepared for Arsenal match, they can equally do the same to win Brentford with clean sheet.

could you ever bet millions if you had it?
No.

I honestly do not risk too much into bets when I gamble. It's something I do for fun to test my proficiency in predicting a sport I love to watch, staking excessively will take away a chunk of the fun. I'll rather stake low with the chance to win a low reward, than risk a ridiculous amount.

I lost my cool yesterday as Newcastle spoilt my plan, entire ticket was loss because they couldn't get a single goal yesterday and then for a minute, I paused and I was like, how much did you bet on stake? That's when I realized I was reacting. Grin Now, imagine if u stake a large amount of money, no matter how hard I try not to lose my cool, I wouldn't be able to hide it, now I wonder how this man has the courage to bet a fortune, this is gambling abuse.  Undecided

Unless the guy launder money through gambling, I don't think any sensible person will bet $10M on a game, it doesn't make sense. Why has he not been trending like drake because anytime that guy stake 800k to 1M, the internet especially the netizens go high and says a lot of things that he will go broke, this and that's but this guy don't, or maybe because he is na celebrity.

I don't know how big money is to some people but to be honest, $10M is too big to be use for gambling, amount that can buy a startup company, I don't want to say how much that amount is in my local currency but if I have such amount and I decide not to work for 40 years, I will live good life. But MR.man lost everything to gambling, lord have mercy.
634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Premier League 2023/2024 Discussion Thread ⚽ on: October 26, 2023, 07:55:50 PM

I must be honest if emery is far better than pochettino in this case. He was able building a great club with limited budget unlike chelsea's coach which has spent billions for nothing.

I am also disappointed with the results obtained by Chelsea. Maybe the Chelsea scouting team thought that Pocchettino had experience coaching big clubs and that was what made them trust him. This is the fault of the Chelsea scouting team because I think they don't really do their job well.

I was happy at the end that Arsenal put a good fight and equalizes at the end of the matche, Chelsea slack in the second half but please give Pochettino some breathing space. It's not easy to play against a team like Arsenal to lead with two goals, I expected Arsenal to flog them by a wide margin but regrettably, Chelsea were in place and every player did a team work contributions and that's why they had two goals earlier in the first half.

Pochettino might leave Chelsea sooner or later because I don't think he is in full mode to give Chelsea what they need of him. The entire team, the assistant manager and coaches, and the manager need to be replaced. The mistake Pochettino did during the transfer window was keeping some of the new signing thinking they are going to do a better job but theynare just bunch of garbages that were very price because of World Cup performance, Enzo in particular.
635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: October 26, 2023, 07:34:06 PM
They do insist on the same names way too often when they shouldn't and that's the problem with Erik Tan Hag. That dude has his " favorites" in the club and keeps playing those players and he had some players that he wanted to buy as well and he did that, on top of that no matter how good you may look or how good you may play during training, you are not going to get that chance. Thats their problem, the manager doesn't care how good you are or how well you can be, he has his 11 in mind and as long as they are all healthy, he will keep on playing that 11 no matter what. This of course sometimes causes them to not play with the best 11 they have, and end up with a bad result.

IMO, this happens in every teams but I think Ten Hag options are too obvious that he is been selective when it comes to choosen of players, if Maguire happens to be in another team I'm not sure if he is going to be given second chance the way he had it with Ten Hag, but I'm impressed for how he turned out still.

Ten Hag need to work on his relationship, he can't hate all the players and be picky when it time for selection. For instance, look at Sancho situation nothing positive have been out from the day they started the misunderstanding, there are players but the available ones relationship is not solid but they don't point this out any time the team lose match.

Thinking about De Gea and Manchester United I think Manchester United made a huge mistake by releasing De Gea because he is a coach who achieved many titles with Manchester United and I think instead of going for other players.
I think there is a high chance for Manchester United to send an offer for De Gea again but the best he can do is to reject the offer.

De Gea contract was over and I don't think there is nothing absolutely wrong in letting go of De Gea but the mistake I thought they had some weeks back is the replacement, I wasn't too confident about their choice with Onana as the new lead goalkeeper but looking at their last two matches, I daft my hatt for him because Ten Hag said he needs some improvement and he actually did improve and help the team.

I think there are 2 reasons rich people gamble, first they gamble for fun or they are endorsed by the casino platform. For E money, I think he is doing endorsements to encourage people to gamble on the gambling platform he uses. You can see how eccentric and flashy his clothing style is, it really describes an influencer who endorses a product. He even dressed like a Muslim, which I thought was quite funny because in Muslims it is not acceptable to gamble.

The fun part is what I think of them, majority of big men gamble for the fun of it and most of the time is when they hangout, you see them around table playing blackjack because it's a casino game for the mature and not all these Dice machine, they see that as kids stuff. Whereas for Emoney, he just decide to do sports match using Arsenal for attention.

If this is not endorsement, there is nothing closer to it because I know his is an influencial person, people will does as he said. If indeed he is trying to show his bet for Arsenal, he can juts simply cutout the place that display the sporty bet name but he didn't, if people or the fans should see the name, they will certainly want to use the platform, hence the power of influence is working, this is nothing but promotion.
 
Lemme assume the game hasn't been played yet .. he's not being confident cus he's staked that high - that hasn't proved any confidence one bit... He's only staking high cus he's so fucking rich and there's a little to what he's gonna lose if it doesn't cut...
Mind you, that might also be a way to promote the casino since he's actually a celebrity... If not, why's he asking everyone to bet alongside?... I wouldn't feel any different assuming I was active when this was posted.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

You mean that amount is high? I don't think so. There are sporty bettors I know since day one that gamble more than that amount and business wise, they are not half wealthy as emoney is today but they gamble everyday and makes life though gambling. Perhaps you can say that was the amount he was allowed to be used for promotion just to bring people into the platform and also send message of betting responsibly.

Even though i don't know this young lady in question personally, i felt true pity for her after coming across and reading her confession, i know how important weddings are to women and for the fact that she herself joined the man in saving, and even contributed about 60% of the entire funds they managed to save, shows or showed how committed she was to see that their wedding takes place, but unfortunately, the man gambled the money away, what could be more heart breaking than this?

I have had to laugh out loud seeing the headline but on a second thought, this is not funny. This is nothing but a pure wickedness, a man that doesn't have a lovely heart, a man that doesn't care how others feel about him is the only person capable of this stunt. This is cheating and stealing because if really the lady contributed 60% and the man had the audacity to used the money to bet, common this is bad.

Another thing is that, the woman is having the desire to get married on time because she donateed more than half of the money, where I comes from even if the lady is the one trying to get married on time, the bill and responsibilities of the wedding lies on the man and not on the woman but here reverse is the case.

She better thanks the man foolishness for using the money to bet, because if in the end they get married, the marriage might not last, the man will gamble all the money in their saves and they will drag and drag eachother and later divorce. It's sad but better this way.

Most of the grown up people do not live with parents. At such, the parents are not aware about the interests and habits of individuals. Do you parents know that you gamble ? What was their first reaction towards your gambling habit ?

Just last week here, when I went to a grocery store to buy things. I was hearing a grown up man was mad on his call and from the conversations, seems the money he use to sent to his son finish even before the month end and from calculation the upkeep should be enough to last him for a month despite the high cost of living. The money should be manageable for two people talk more of him that stays alone in school. After a while, the dad called back and say he knows that he also gamble, his sure that some of his money always go to betting.

These are part of challenges that parent face with their children that are not working class. How can you be gambling when you don't have a source of income while having school responsibilities, it's very bad of them. I'm not an addict that gambles all the time and I don't inform my parent as well because I'm not a kid and I'm not under anyone's roof. I believe if you don't ask anyone for money, they don't have the right to poke nose into your private life affairs but when you are under them, then they need to know.

Previously we could have predicted the direction of the game, Real Madrid would win at Braga headquarters based on experience in the UCL and the quality of the two very different teams. In this match, Vinicius performed well and was the mastermind of Real Madrid attacks. Even though he didn't score, Vinicius contributed greatly to the two goals scored by Real Madrid.
Bellingham also played well, he began to find his sharpness after not scoring a goal when Real Madrid were held to a draw by Sevilla. This victory gives Real Madrid a great chance of becoming Group C champions and will potentially have easier opponents in the round of 16.

Champions League alone is an avenue for some clubs to be known, if not for the League I might not have heard of Braga for once. Experience matters a lot, Napoli has been there, Real Madrid has been there, Union Berlin were there too but Braga has never and as first time, it will be difficult job for them to escape this group stage, most likely they will not. The two teams I'm looking upto to graduate from this group are Real Madrid and Napoli to the group of 16.

Some club signing happen like magic and luck. Who would have thought Bellingham is going to be a beast for the club, higstest goal scorer in Real Madrid domestic League and still dominate the Champions League for the club but he is worth  the amount he was bought because Dortmund are very good in rasing good players. Haaland was the same last time and he did extraordinary for Manchester City.

These two players were the ones who managed to save Manchester United from bad results and I think that even though up to now both of them have often received criticism from fans. Thanks to the extraordinary performance of these two which was the key to victory for the Red Devils, at least it was able to reduce all the ridicule thrown at them. We know that as the home team, Manchester United is having difficulty scoring goals and I am quite pessimistic about whether last night Manchester United would fail to secure another point. But who would have thought that the hero would come with a header using an assist from Eriksen and he was the former Red Devils captain, Harry Maguire. Suddenly the supporters complained about his name and because of that, Manchester United would no longer be embarrassed at home.


No amount of pressure should change your goals and plans, this is what Maguire and Onana has displayed in the past few weeks. Onana in particular, some United fans were so disappointed in Erik Hag because they want to see result quickly, not knowing that sometimes, good things take time. I'm not even sure if they remember the team was like that last season but they forget how he transformed them quickly. They will do better and I'm glad to see Maguire respect is coming back gradually, maybe they will not sell him again if he continues to help tackle the team defense system.

I think the competition for golden boot this season will be tougher as Erling Haaland is yet to score the number of goals he already had by this time last season. Yes we all know the impact KDB brings to the squad but in his absence Haaland will have to find his way around if he want to be in the golden boot contest, Son of Spurs is already proving to be a competition for Haaland this season.

Haaland PR don't have time to ginger the Premier League, they are more focus now on the Balon D'or they know he will not win but they must push, by the time they see the end that he comes second after Messi, they will come back and push him again to tap in. Grin

Honestly, I can't feel his energy like last season, man was here and there making ways for Manchester City but it seems Son and Moh Salah are ready to take this lead together with him this time around. I'm interested in how Son will go far because him and Salah has the same 7 points, but he is the best 3 that has not scored a single goal from penalty. That's how you know play makers and those who loves taping.


De Bruyne got injured after playing the first game in the Premier League. Since then Haaland has scored 7 goals in 7 games. He even made a hat-trick in one of those games. Therefore I can't say Haaland has been having scoring issues. People must be expecting to see the same Haaland from the previous season I assume.

But to get that version of Haaland indeed De Bruyne is needed. They have had a wonderful chemistry that Haaland scores even more in his presence. But even for now I can say Haaland is doing quite well. I expect him to score against Manchester United at the weekend.

Haaland actually had 9 goals in 9 matches with 1 assist so far in the Premier League alone. But there is a problem in his consistency. His relationship with De Bruyne is out of this world because as a midfielder, he makes sure Haaland is never out of ball, Bruyne is very good and reliable that's why Haaland had more his goals in the last season but now it seems the absence is not only stop De Bruyne from playing, it's also stopping him from having more goals. I hope he recovers cover quickly.
