weekly or monthly salary payment is a good emergency that will make that person use his emergency fund to cover up until the person receives his salary. For instance, you used to receive your monthly payment at the end of each month, but something happened at the place of your work, and you got paid on the 10th of the new month. You will have no choice but to use your emergency fund to sort out your bills because you never expected that your salary payment would be delayed.

It seems you are confusing reserve funds for and emergency funds because that's actually not the work of emergency funds but however when we talk about emergency funds they are money kept aside that can not be expected to yield profits or use to solve daily needs however is mostly established for a purpose and for more crucial things, however when you talk about daily needs you are actually referring to reserve funds because those are the work of reserve funds they are some amounts of money that is removed from either monthly salary or other sources and save to help and sorts out any needs that would arise on the process of accumulation or holding.
Thank you for clarifying him i hope this time he doesn't get confused anymore about the whole things, because its a serious issue that over the period of time that dude has follow this thread he is still contradicting emergency fund to reserve funds. Let me add to what you have said so far.

In as much as emergency fund is crucial to an investor so that he wont tap into investment when unforeseen matter arises, one should always understand that having an emergency fund gives peace of mind, encourage investment flexibility and foster consistency in accumulation. Many would not understand the importance of emergency fund which is why they dont have one. But ill put it in brief now, emergency fund focuses on short-term needs and easy access to cash while the investor focuses on long term goals.

Its funny how you relate the government and altcoins to be alike literally. On a second thought i agree with you buddy!

The most similarities i can find in them is that they all get to fail at last. Upon all the trust, faith and hope the masses has in them not minding the doubt and uncertainty they still chose them yet they fail. And the trauma it has cause in this society is that some people no longer believe in the system anymore. May dont vote or participate in political activities anymore and many dont invest in cryptocurrency or participate in any ICO or IEO anymore.

All this opportunities nah watin person no suppose to miss at all because as e dip today we no dey sure say e go dip soon again. And if any body try gather the small one wey em go fit now and em still gatter tomorrow nah double opportunities. Some people dey fear say as Bitcoin drop during the dip, say e no go high again, but nah I only person wey no sabi the circles of Bitcoin nai dey sell with fear and lose. I agree say the main reason why we dey hold for long nah because say we win make big profits.
The bull and bear season, we selects our best choice and ensure we're eating in profits as usual. Bitcoin de dip, that one na normal thing and make we just continue to observed our strategies wether e de favour us or we go change am ASAP, because nobody wan de waste time again for projects wey no go give better money. Opportunities de come and e de go, make we just stay one lane and observed how our lives go change if we used our head wella for better thing.
Changing strategies when things start fallen out of place is a good idea but it is difficult to do that because an investor is now acquainted to the current strategy unless he is ready to as well change his goals or target. Because changing strategies would either speed up the accumulation process or reduce the pace at which the investor accumulate.

If the cause of changing a strategy is as a result of low finances which may happen if an investor is being demoted or sacked from work then it will surely hinders his investment. In such cases DCA cannot be practiced, the investor would only invest when he has disposable money which is not certain to come monthly until he gets a new job or called back to work. Many factors that cause change of strategies can be discussed but this is the most popular i have seen.
4  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Which country is wiser? on: Today at 12:43:56 AM
Obviously Indian in this situation is wiser. The idea of being wise is not based on manipulation or logic but based on understanding and selflessness. The Indian government are more concerned by the need of the people and not themselves. All we have seen that the Nigerian government has done was to make more selfish decisions. Yes, the fine has been paid by Binance yet they wont let the issue go away because they are not satisfied by what they were given, they need to extort more from Binance.

I hate to believe the saying that when you give an African man chance he loves to take chances. I think this is what i am sleeping and i have to believe it now. The same government is still aware that no matter what they do they cant stop the use of P2P by Nigerian crypto enthusiast.
5  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Centralized Exchanges already violate customers privacy right by asking for KYC on: Today at 12:30:54 AM
No doubt this is a concern for those who love to maintain anonymity in the crypto space but let me put hit straight to you that all you have mentioned has no connection with the issues of Nigerian government attacking cryptocurrency in the country. Its obvious that our leaders are concerned about money laundering, finance terrorism and instability in the price of Naira to USD. And that is why these Centralization focuses on security which is the main reason why they see KYC as a step forward to increases security and also catch fraudsters in the space. There have been lots of account suspected by Centralized exchange of which they suspect money laundering and theft. Yet the Government are blind to have seen how these exchanges are putting effort. Dont you think that removing KYC in CEX will cause more harm than good? In the right sense how those anonymity in CEX would increase security and prevent illegal activities? think about it!

Always prepared yourself to acknowledge the risks and smooth running of the system. We have inner confidence, despite our losses, we would always keen on fighting back. Confidence is everything in gambling, it's always one step to accomplish straight targets and having the necessary points available on our ends. Going all in, the gambler should know the losses he can afford to take in and also having one of the solid strategies to implement in the space.
What you have to remember is, no matter how good a gambler is at gambling, he will not be able to fight the system built by the bookie. Even though a gambler has quite good skills. Basically, gambling doesn't make you richer, it actually makes you poorer. It would be wiser if you stop before you fall deeper into the gambling table. Maybe there have been many cases of people experiencing this, it's a good idea for you to learn from it. Maybe this life really requires money for daily living, but this method is very wrong, many people want to get instant money there. Don't waste your money on gambling.


Dont say gambling cant make someone richer it can make someone rich when the fate of that person is different. There are people who have become millionaires through gambling and it is by luck it is not by will or ones accurate prediction. Most times the bet that would give you a huge amount is not even one that you take so much time time to predict.

The point am trying to make here is that in as much gambling can make you poor if it is not followed adequately it can make you rich as well if followed properly and not being addictive.

If Tottenham wins all its remaining games, it will gain 72 points, and Liverpool already has 75 points - Liverpool does not even have a mathematical chance of being outside the top 4. As for Liverpool's remaining games, I wouldn't bet on any of them (on Liverpool), they are demoralized and unmotivated, it is very likely that they will continue to lose points.

Aston villa needs to win two more matches in order to secure UCL spots, which will help club to secure 73 points in total. it's one point more compared to the what can be achieved by totenham by winning all of remaining games. Even though totenham will able to get 72 points but villa will qualify as it has no chance anymore. I think that vilal must be only using everything they have to get 6 points in order to lock UCL spot. Villa can do that caused by it will have ez fixtures. It's impossible to think villa will not able to secure 6 points.

Aston Villa still have to play with Liverpool and Crystal Palace (the game with Brighton is now almost over and Brighton winning 1-0) so it is far from obvious that Aston Villa will be able to score 6 points. Plus, it has huge problems in the Conference League and it seems that after a good season they risk spoiling the whole impression at the finish line. The only thing that speaks in favor of Aston Villa is that Tottenham have equally difficult games (for example with City) and they will also lose points.
However, Aston Villa's opportunity to get a UCL ticket is likely to be obtained, and Aston Villa's remaining toughest matches are against Liverpool and against Crystal Palace. And for the match against Crystal Palace, Aston Villa has a good track record but anything can still happen.
Actually, Tottenham also has the opportunity to overtake Aston Villa, but it seems very unlikely even though Tottenham has a two-game gap with Aston Villa. And in the remaining matches, Tottenham will meet tough opponents Liverpool who will play soon as well as Manchester City and apart from that Burnley and Sheff Utd.
Do you think Aston Villa would win Liverpool next match. Its kind of difficult playing Liverpool. Its funny how they cant win against Brighton today but how did they win Arsenal both Home and way. Football is kind of very strange at times the teams you expect to win wont win they will lose when there are so much convictions that they would win the match.

Liverpool vs Tottenham has already began and Liverpool is leading with a goal. Although there is no hope of the EPL title now they are way backward the race now is only left for Arsenal and Manchester City.

I will start investing according to everyone's idea and make my investment long term. 
Dont invest based on someone's advice invest when you have a goal in mind and find a suitable strategy that would help you achieve that goal. The mistakes newbies do when investing is because they listen to others opinions and suggestions that does not suits their financial level or investment target thereby they end up encountering issues along the way and some quickly sell of their investment since they cant cope or continue again. This thread contains so much information's and discussion on investment but ins as much as you give ears to these ideas and opinions always make your own conclusion and convictions before jumping into your investment. Goodluck on the ride!

Right now the table is quite fixed and we can see who is taking the title of first four, while man United, Chelsea and Newcastle are left to struggle for 6 position to qualify for the conference Cup, right now Newcastle is ahead with 3 points but both other teams have an outstanding match to play, and I think man United might not make this journey cause they have a strong match againt arsenal next week and if they lose and Newcastle and Chelsea wins they have well passed them and I think right now that's all man United can hope to qualify for.
I was  telling an Arsenal fan yesterday that he should be expecting fire from Manchester United next week because Manchester United might be weak or not playing well this seas but not when they face Arsenal. They show their strength and keep there weakness away. Now they have something to fight for which is to be part of the top six teams in the EPL, while Arsenal are fighting to maintain the winning streaks so that they can have hope on the premier league title. It wont be so easy for both teams but i am certain that Arsenal would win.

Manchester City still have Tottenham and Westham to play then can actually lose in any of these games. So lets keep the hope and see but Chelsea would definitely win there next match.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: May 04, 2024, 05:14:53 PM
At first I thought that Wolves would be the team to bring Manchester City down but maybe i though wrong. I was in a hurry to judge the outcome of this match today based on the last match Wolves played against Manchester City at their home which they won 2:1. Its only at first half and Manchester City has scored two goals. I can see the actions here and  i believe that Manchester City are not frightened by the fact that Arsenal continue to win all of their games they play. They are strong and that is why they win all of their matches this season.

Before the end of the game we might see goals up to four and without doubt i am beginning to be certain that Manchester City will win the EPL title and not Arsenal. I dont see them losing to any team anytime soon.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and wealth as the major religions in world. on: May 04, 2024, 05:08:38 PM
Everyone wants to earn and accumulate money but no one is happy with their earned money because the more they earn the more their dreams will be. Every individual spends their whole life to get money and they die but their dreams are never achieved.

One reason that people desire to have more money is that everything is getting so expensive that a single salary is not enough therefore most of the people accumulate and use it for making more money but money is the need of life which every person has to earn.
One thing is that people will never get satisfied of what ever they are earning and the economy is even contributing to us not satisfaction because the things we make budget for as increase, it now like the money is never enough. That is exactly what life has become we don't have any other thing to worry about its always money and that is why till today as important as money is it still does not give you happiness it only give you excitement because you can always afford what you can buy.

Because of money we have even forgotten our value to our existence, because the way it is we just come to earth we go to school, look for a job then get married then get kids then death, some times we need to know the main purpose of our existence not just liven a life as if all is normal. We should make our selfes happy and more to life than just money.
Every stage of life comes with different responsibility and i bet that the responsibility increases as one begins to get more attention from family members and relatives. What am trying to say here is that when these responsibilities becomes too much and such individual find it difficult to maintain balance he wont have satisfaction at all. The hunger to make money to cater for those needs and still have left over will be his main priorities. For a young man after higher education it first start with finding a stable source of income and bud different financial sources and after then he start thinking of the family way, how to get married and start a family.

You see life for others as a process that has a repeated cycle. Truly i agree with you that life is more than just getting married giving birth and then old and die. Every individual has something i called a purpose and if it is not fulfilled one should not be comfortably happy.
13  Economy / Economics / Re: Starting a business without capital. on: May 04, 2024, 04:58:44 PM
I suggest starting with not zero, because I know that a lot of people will look for zero, but the reality is that if you have even a small amount, you should be able to actually start a business a lot better.

The difference between zero dollars and even something small like a thousand dollars is HUGE in the online world, for a thousand dollars you could probably get the social media posts handled, get like 200 posts with great mock-ups ready for the images and posts itself, and you could get a template website ready, nothing too fancy but at least something that explains what your business does, a logo, a great business offer on paper to everyone, and you could just go around and could collect a lot more money after that, all within budget. With zero? You can't do any of that.
Your right here! Having a good sum of money in your hand as a capital to start a business is good and it will give you access to things you cannot do when you do not have any money on you. Which you have mentioned earlier. But i think that OP is trying to say that there are people who may have that money but dont know how to start a mange a business and even if they try to implement these things you mentioned they may go about it the wrong way.

That means it is good one have a 0 zero amount at hand and a million dollars amount in the brain. So that when they have such amount or little to start their business they will be successful at the end. It takes a prepared mind to be successful on anything whether with money or not.
14  Economy / Economics / Re: How safe is it to keep your money and gold underground? on: May 04, 2024, 04:53:01 PM
As far as I know, that method is still used by most people; instead of keeping it in the bank, they keep it in their home, even if it is in the trunk. but not just like Op said.

And I won't be surprised why someone is still using these methods because of the bad system that the bank has. I'm not that big on the banking system either.
Who fucking keep his money in the trunk when someone might steal it. I dont see keeping money at home as a bad idea because sometimes when you want to access your money it somehow difficult to access it because the traditional bank these days are not to be trusted since the money is being used to invest or given to organizations as loan for there business.

Yes, the bank is supposed to be a place where one can save his money at least that was the idea form the beginning before so many policies and authorities tarts coming in. If the people dont trust the bank anymore then any other options will be at their own risk.

Arsenal  have won the match against Bounemouth in a 3:0 thriller at Emirate stadium.The match was full of suspence as it ended 1:0 in first half.Bournemout is a very tough team,and they indeed gave Arsenal headache before the gunners could secure a win against them.Now the gunners are waiting anxiously,and hoping City draws theirs against Wolves so they can win all their remaining matches and be crowned champions of  the premier league.Arteta just wants to be winning and be mounting more pressure on City,to see if anything thing can happen before the season ends.
This win is a good win for Arsenal, it has made them four points clear ahead of their top rival Manchester City.  This four points gap will put a bit pressure on Manchester City and they will be very eager to close the gap, whereas Wolves will also try to see if they can repeat what they did in the first leg because they are very strong, but playing at Etihad stadium this evening might make the game tough for them. I am given Manchester City a win in this match because of their previous matches performance and Wolves inconsistency because they won just one match in their last five matches.
Securing a three point against Bournemouth is a good thing for Arsenal they have one outstanding difficult match to play which is Manchester United only then will they have the courage to expect to win the EPL title. Manchester City will be playing today against Wolves who won them at their home on the first match and I wont be surprised the same thing would happen.

Arsenal are just praying that Manchester City should lose just one match. it might either be Tottenham, West Ham or Fulham. That is the only hope they have and they need to bank on it.

And upon results, when they are in most losses, they cannot let it pass so they become aggressive.

Aggressiveness may be a good thing when you are fighting your enemy on the battlefield, but it rarely helps in gambling. I'm saying "rarely" instead of "never" because in some extremely rare cases people do win because of their aggressive behaviour. It happens by chance, like those cases when people hit the Jackpot in a lottery, but it happens and it would be wrong to say that people always lose because of their aggressiveness. Most of the time, however, people lose and lose really big amounts when they start acting like that. Be cool and enjoy your gambling experience without going over the edge, that's what I would say to beginners if they want to stay out of gambling addiction.
Aggressive has more disadvantages more than the advantages that is why i wont advised anyone to take an aggressive approach when gambling. The spirit of going all in when you have experience so much loss has left many gamblers stranded and made them take loans to pay back their debt.

Yes some gamblers get lucky when they go all in, but statistically speaking i have heard of people losing due to gambling aggressively that people winning during aggressive gambling. That is why one need to be more careful when they are gambling so that emotions wont get attached during the process if not they may choose to go all in.

Luton really really needs a win here, like big time. They are not financially a strong team, and to be perfectly honest I have zero idea how they managed to be good enough to come here, but they are not a big populated area, so it won't be easy for them to come back to here at premier league, they need to stay as long as possible, in order to get enough money from everything, to be able to get better.

If they go down, then I am not sure how they could come back because even the first one was a shocker to begin with. They need the win, and stay, so that they could get a lot of money and be better next season, because with that kind of money rewarded if they stay, they may end up getting better defense and do better next season, or at least they could hope they would.
It is not quite a good thing that all day three clubs that can from championship are going to be relegated this season. I had expected one of them to at least stay back and currently the one that has the ability to stay back and the English Premier League is Luton. This is second half of the match and they are battling with Everton. They are currently sharing the points but if Luton could possibly get all the three points they will be temporary of the relegation zone pending the next match of Nothingham forest. At this crucial moment, it is very difficult to win matches. So, if Luton can't win tonight, they should atleast not lose.
What do you expect from a team coming from Championship? Do you expect them to compete that have the Premier League experiences already. My dear the EPL is not an easy ride for Luton and the others. However they fought so hard and managed to stop some big teams winning the EPL. Yet its not enough they need to have successfully remained in the EPL.

Luton today would have won their match but i dont know what is the problem with them missing all the chances they had to score. I wasn't impressed with their performance today sincerely speaking.

That's unhealthy. But for men this is normal. Cheesy We keep our secrets to ourselves that is why I am kind of curious on why this guy told  his secret on social media. Perhaps his wife won't know about it but still, it could become our weakness.
I tell my wife lies everyday but it's more of white lies, jokes, and made up stories. All of it has a reason and most of the time it's to make her smile or laugh. I don't like an environment with a heavy feeling. Lighter is better as it makes the whole house positive and it becomes a home.
When it comes to gambling, I don't tell lies because it's money related. As much as possible she would know how I spent the money.
Very sweet of you. At least you choose having a home rather than having a house filled with sad people. Gambling can twist someone who is sincere and honest into someone who wont stop telling lies everyday. And this is as a result of  gambling addiction or perhaps other gambling habit which has planted a negative seed in the heart of the gambler.

In my opinion i feel its normal telling your wife most things especially things that troubles you. Its biblical that the both of you are now one and to share in both pains and happiness. If one is certain in the kind of wife he has, he would have relief and good advice with support from his wife to quit some gambling habit.

I also think that you should not play in front of children, because they like to copy any actions from their parents. I don’t want to say that after they see us playing, they will immediately steal the money and go do the same thing. But this may occur several years later or during adolescence. They will have memories of those colorful pictures on the screen and cheerful music, as well as the bright emotions of their father or mother. Even if they were not very joyful, screaming or talking to oneself also attracts the attention of children. Adults simply underestimate this situation and pursue their own interests in the game and at the same time very often do not want to make sure that children are not around. I never make mistakes that could have a negative impact on them in the future due to incorrect, very positive perceptions in childhood.
Children are quick learners. At that stage of life any adult they see seems to be like a role model to them and if they consistently see an adult doing a particular thing multiple times they feel it is the right to do. Gambling in front of our kid should not be encouraged and this is because its something we ourselves are trying to stop and most times we regret the fact we entered into gambling and we would always advice people close to us not to stat gambling. I think we do not wish our children to have the same gambling experience we had unless it is a good way.

Infact no parent s would wan their kids to grow up as a gambler, they wish good jobs for their children to be successful so they dont think about gambling as an option to make money or double money.

Bologna vs Torino

Quote from: Twitter
#Torino (3-4-1-2): Milinkovic-Savic; Vojvoda, Buongiorno, Masina; Bellanova, Ricci, Ilic, Rodriguez; Vlasic; Sanabria, Zapata
#Bologna (4-1-4-1): Skorupski; Posch, Lucumi, Calafiori, Kristiansen; Freuler; Ndoye, Fabbian, Aebischer, Saelemaekers; Zirkzee

Juventus has not been playing well at all currently. I think Bologna should be able to take advantage of that. They have a rather easy match going against to Torino you know. I said this is going to be easy because the performance from Torino has not been good in the last five matches. They only have one win in the last five matches and in the last four matches, they do not have a single win. That's why Bologna should look at this and take this as a chance for them to get ahead of Juventus drops points in the next match. Let’s see what happens. But I believe there are a lot of chances for different teams to finish in different positions this season from where they are right now.
Bologna dont have any chance of winning Torino for my opinion because Torino will use the  the pressure of their  last defeat against bologna, so even though they win against Torino or draw they will still not go to the UCL  if its is their main target or focus at this main point, because Juventus  will have the advantage of using Roma injury crisis to win the match against Roma. even though they lose to Roma  and Bologna enter third position they can still past Milan in the table.
