No I do't think NFTs are a scam but instead they are a trend that will maybe fade away.

It's better to just hodl your bitcoins instead of buying NFTs in my opinion.

I would be very interested in seeing a Pacquaio - Ugas rematch in January.

I think Pacquaio would have the time necessary to get physically and mentally prepared and give a better performance.

I think it’s clear that Pacquaio is on the decline as a fighter, however, I think it would be great to see him prove me wrong and show the world that he still has it.

I’m a huge Pacquaio fan but I think if he doesn’t come out stronger and faster this time around he should absolutely retire.

Parking your car can be challenge for even an experienced driver.
A method for overcoming anxiety and negative emotion in general is to recognize that your framing of the experience is affecting your performance.
For example physiologically, anxiety is almost indistinguishable from excitement; the primary difference is the framing we have of the experience.
I would recommend framing the experience of parking in your mind as a challenge or a game and you may be  able to improve the experience of parking.
1765  Economy / Economics / Re: Bullish or nuts? Fidelity predicts $100M bitcoin in 2035 on: September 02, 2021, 07:36:38 AM
This was an interesting read. I think $100 million does sound a bit high, considering other forecast strategists that I follow have lower predictions.

However, it is very difficult to predict future valuations of such a transformational technology such as BTC.

It could perhaps reach levels that high in the future.

For example, if BTC is the dominant method of value exchange globally and fiat currencies are much less used then perhaps it is a reasonable projection that Fidelity is making in the article; I would need to do more research to be sure.

I think it’s important to be able to get in touch with your daughter when she’s out, to confirm she’s safe and make sure she’s able to reach out for help if she needs it.

However, smart phones may have many different negative consequences for young people and I wouldn’t want to encourage her to adopt a social media habit that could potentially have a negative affect on her sense of self.

You could potentially buy her a cell phone but something very simple that doesn’t have apps or you could buy her a smart phone but limit her usage to make sure she’s not compulsively using social media. 
1767  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Addict on: September 02, 2021, 07:13:06 AM
I do not believe that you can become a “Bitcoin addict”. I do think you can develop compulsive behaviors with your interests.
Moreover, if you feel that those behaviors such as checking your phone to see the value of your BTC, have negative consequences than you may have a problem.
At bottom, if the consequences you feel you’re experiencing from your interest in BTC are causing more problems than the joy you get from being part of the Bitcoin revolution than I think you should talk to a professional health care provider.

Bitcoin is a form of value that is stored in a virtual space and documented on a transparent ledger and can be used as a means of exchange or stored and it can be mined digitally but there is a finite amount.
1769  Other / Off-topic / Re: Electric vs Air powered vehicles on: September 02, 2021, 06:49:23 AM
I absolutely would drive an “air powered” car. I think it’s potentially a more sustainable technology and I would enjoy being an early adopter of a new technology.
I think the new Tata motors concept car looks pretty cool and I think it would attract a lot of attention from people in my neighborhood.
Right now in many areas of India this car could be a huge breakthrough and I would like to get my hands on a Tata prototype is Tata is looking for drivers to research.

I would like to see a Pacquaio Ugas rematch but in all honesty I would be happier if Manny just retired.

It’s quite heart breaking to see a great boxer who you followed for many years just not performing at a high level anymore.

Neil Young had a quote, “Its better to burn out than to fade away”.

On the other hand, I can see why Manny wants to fight and I suppose if people want to see him then I have no problem with it but I would rather remember him at his peak then remember him from his last performance against Ugas.
1771  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Next US president pro-bitcoin? on: September 02, 2021, 06:32:31 AM
If the next US Presidential candidate is pro Bitcoin it could have a very positive impact on the adoption of crypto currencies in general.

I believe many people would feel safer to enter the space.

Personally, I think a presidential candidates endorsement would legitimatize BTC in a new way for many people and would result in more people  entering the market and the price could radically increase.

This is how it should be.   To legitimize the sport of boxing. 
There is no reason to have so many different titles for same weigh class it makes the titles less valuable if there are so many of them.

I think the biggest news that will increase the popularity of cryptocurrency will be new established CEOs, executives and leaders endorsing cryptocurrencies and/or accepting it for payment.
At this point, high profile tech entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey can affect the price of cryptocurrencies in a single tweet.
Imagine if Tim Cook endorsed cryptocurrencies on Twitter tomorrow?
I think we could expect a large portion of Apple's large fan base to start investing in this new digital revolution.
Furthermore, if a leader of a major country with low adoption endorsed cryptocurrencies, I could imagine many new people would follow suit.
1777  Other / Off-topic / Re: do you beleive in ghosts? on: August 28, 2021, 07:31:26 AM
I think ghosts do exist although I have no personal experience to support this assertion.

The only evidence I have for my belief is my dad told me a personal story when he saw two ghosts in his hotel room.

My father is a very honest and moral man so I take his experience as evidence that ghosts do exist.

I think it is probable that we are souls in human bodies and we get reincarnated many times over. 

This would explain how certain souls get stuck here on earth in limbo but do not inhabit a physical body. 
1778  Other / Off-topic / Re: Nikola Tesla Explained in 16 Minutes on: August 28, 2021, 07:28:10 AM
I think this video about Nikola Tesla was fascinating; it was very informative and well produced.
I enjoy learning about brilliant people who accomplish incredible feats against all odds.
I found the video very inspiring and motivates me to accomplish more with my time here on earth.
I find it a bit tragic that Nikola did not have much financial security at the end of his life.
Considering all of his amazing contributions to humanity I am surprised he was not able to monetize his technology better.
I gather from the video that Nikola was more interested in being the best inventor he could possibly be as opposed to purely making money and living in luxury.
1779  Other / Off-topic / Re: Monetisation of social media content on: August 28, 2021, 07:18:04 AM
I think there are many ways to monetize your content.

First, I would focus on creating great content; It is simply not enough to post all over social media and expect financial rewards from your labour.

Once your content is of excellent quality - and that will be verified by a large fan base of followers, views and comments - you will have more opportunities.

Second, I would reach out to partners for collaborations.

This could be other comedy creators or you could look into other types of content creators to diversify your followers and gather a larger market base.

Third, I would start reaching out for brand partnerships and sponsorships; I would recommend sending messages out to brands that fit your style and/or image.

You might have to be willing to accept lower compensation at the beginning but in time you will be able to demand a huge commision for ads, product placement, reviews etc.

I think Manny Pacquiao is an absolutely amazing boxer and was one of the best fighters in the world.  However, his loss is evidence that he is clearly past his prime and on the decline physically and mentally and should not be seen as a serious competitor. Personally, his loss to Yordenis Ugas was hard to watch because you could see he just was not performing at the level we saw him fight in the past. I was a bit disturbed to see the recent leaked photos online of Manny being spoon-fed by his wife because of the eye injuries he sustained from the fight because it was so clearly evidence of how much he was outboxed by Ugas' strength and speed.
