People of all age could have interest towards bitcoin, you could be a little girl of 12 years old and invest into bitcoin with your lemonade stand profits or you could be an 87 year old guy who would not even think about it twice that would make it any different. As long as you invest, then you become part of the bitcoin family and you are free to say and do whatever you want about bitcoin because you took the risk.
This kind of adoption has become quite widespread, especially for those who come from bitcoin families where their parents are part of the people who have invested in it for a long time. I was also quite surprised to see several middle and high school children in my area who were quite familiar with bitcoin and they had invested responsibly with the finances they had. The issue of age is not an obstacle when people really want to achieve financial freedom through bitcoin and most importantly can be responsible in doing so.

The respect and profit here are shared, we all invest and we all care about it and we all take the same risk every single day, we could have bitcoin be banned in all major nations, g29 could say bitcoin is illegal and will do regulations about it, and ban it, and we have no proof that they won't, so we all take the same chance on it.
We are still quite lucky when we live in a country that doesn't ban bitcoin completely and we can enjoy investing in bitcoin independently. We will take every risk possible, but with various considerations we know that Bitcoin is much more reliable for financial freedom. There are many countries that permit Bitcoin users as an investment asset and most of them do not want it to be a legal transaction process.

Of course if Casemiro is open to a move to Saudi, one of their clubs would sign him, he might even join his former Real Madrid and Manchester United teammate Ronaldo in Al Nassr. United would also be happy to sell him to Saudi if they decide to sell him, and that is because they will get a bigger offer from a Saudi team than from a club in Europe. United's £70m investment on Casemiro hasn't really been a success, i questioned the move from the beginning because of the age of the Brazillian, but it is what it is, and i think they have to sell him, cut their losses and buy a younger defensive midfielder.
I also think the same because Man United will definitely benefit from releasing Casemiro to the Saudi Arabian League compared to releasing him to another European club. The question is whether Al Nassr and other clubs there are willing to make a big offer to Man United because if not it will be difficult to release old players at high prices to leagues in Europe. Cristiano Ronaldo could be the link when Al Nassr intends to bring him because these two players have been close for a long time.

Casemiro's arrival at Old Trafford gave positive results in his first season and thanks to his collaboration with other players they managed to qualify for the Champions League. Currently he is facing injury problems and cannot strengthen the team, even his performance has decreased compared to last season.

I think this week will end really badly for Manchester City. Because I believe Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa all are in a situation to be able to win their games this week. Liverpool can win against Manchester United home easily while Manchester United are bad at defending. Arsenal should be able to beat Brighton home as well.

Aston Villa are playing an away game against Brentford but Brentford are really bad this season. They were able to win only once on their last 5 game weeks in the league. I don't think they can hold off Aston Villa from winning another game.
Man City received another draw when they hosted Crystal Palace, even though if you look at the match Man City could have won the match, but because Crystal Palace didn't just give up they managed to equalize which made Man City lose two points at home. Arsenal and Aston Villa will definitely be quite at an advantage because they are having a much easier match, so securing full points is not difficult for them to get.

Liverpool will also face a big match and although overall Man United is not in good form, I am sure Liverpool will not easily secure full points. Ten Hak is under great pressure and if he accepts defeat it will put his future at Man United at risk, therefore I predict the match will end in a draw.
404  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you still use Banks ? on: December 17, 2023, 10:59:12 AM
This is one of the reasons why banks cannot be completely eliminated in the financial system. Business people need banks to make their financial transactions smooth, even though some of them don't fully trust banks. Do you know? Banks may be the reason why you are required to pay tax on the results of your work - but this is not about taxes, but your financial privacy.

Cryptocurrencies can be a great option to do something similar - especially when it comes to financial transactions. You don't need to queue to send money anywhere when you reach the sending limit from your ATM card. Of course there are many more advantages – but perhaps this has been discussed enough.
That's the problem because business people are used to using the old system where they trust the banking system more as a step to support their financial transaction processes and almost all business people still use banking services for all of that process. Tax issues may be a part that many people don't like, especially for those who frequently make transactions, but it's about opportunities and that's the only way they can support the smooth running of the business they run.

I think everyone who understands crypto will agree that there are many advantages when we use it, but generally speaking this is not yet fully implemented because people out there still need banking. We hope that in the next few years what we want will come true and maybe it is only a matter of time.
405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 16, 2023, 04:33:36 PM
Sincerely I'm having the same doubts as you too, the consistency to maintain the top spot in the English premier League is not an easy task, let's just watch how well arsenal would go about this their campaign this season, although I give it to them haven been this consistent till this time of the season, though Manchester city has have had their fair share of inconsistency this season too, so maybe arsenal could capitalize on that weakness by Manchester city to end at the top ranking of the league.
Arsenal are still one of the strong contenders in the league this season but we doubt they can survive until the end of the season after entering the second half of the season. Arsenal and Liverpool should be able to take advantage of Man City's unstable condition because currently Man City has a weak point after several players suffered injuries. Both Arsenal and Liverpool have to really take advantage of the conditions because the league is still quite long and if both of them are unable to maintain consistency then it is feared that when Man City shows another good game they could be chased like the previous season.

However I'm not seeing much threat from Liverpool or even Tottenham Hotspur, in any case the league is still open for Many things to still happen.
Liverpool have been a strong challenger this season to become one of the teams in the League and they are still consistent enough to date to have managed to occupy first place in the standings. This week they will face Man United and this will be proof of how strong they are to stay at the top of the standings because if they slip up, Arsenal will take over at the top of the standings. Tottenham were not part of the title race because they were only able to play well in the beginning, but now they have lost consistency after suffering several defeats.

Also i asked money my bank dont give so If the bank don't help me to get rich then i dont need them.
Do you still use Banks ? Im using only cryptocurrency debit cards and they always work better than bank.
So Im still surprised If anyone still use Banks they are old

Do you use more crypto or banks for your daily or average transactions ?
Do you have had problems with hackers or someone steal money from your cryptocurrency or bank
Do you think banks not working reliable any more  
The need for the use of banks is still quite large among the public, especially for business people who always carry out fiat currency transfer transactions to support buying and selling activities. The banking system does have a level of weakness and perhaps almost everyone has experienced how their network is so slow when people need fast transactions to support their business. I also hold bitcoin as an investment and this has been going on for the past few years, but I still need fiat and banks for other support.

In general almost many people still use bank services and quite a few people use cryptocurrency debit cards. This talks about how someone can take advantage of something easier and maybe not everyone is able to operate the sophistication of new technology and that is why people still need the old banking system for their life support processes in the financial sector.

I sympathize with him.  It ain't easy to keep your head up and staying optimistic when you're losing money and feeling lousy about yourself.  That's why you gotta set boundaries and only gamble funds you can afford losing.

 And if you sense youre losing your grip, the best thing is to bail and take a timeout
That's why people consider gambling to be a bad activity because it can have a bad impact when someone cannot be responsible regarding the budget spent. Gambling addicts find it quite difficult to set limits, especially regarding the use of their own or other people's money, because when they experience losses it will result in panic which leads to deciding something beyond logic and ultimately the person will commit suicide.

It is best to stay away from gambling if someone is not ready to accept the risk of losing money, gamble responsibly by considering the resulting risks and as much as possible set a special budget so that it does not interfere with daily life as a fulfillment of life.

Barcelona's current financial condition is very complicated and there is no doubt that there is impossible potential to give João Félix with permanent contract, Atletico Madrid won't give extend loan for Barcelona and exactly they will give bid offer above 100 million euro for teams are interested to sign him. Depend with level and João Félix performance in this season with Barcelona, losses him for next season will be more disappointed for Barcelona because he was adapted well with Xavi Hernandez scheme. 
Barcelona must immediately find a solution if they want to make João Félix permanent because Atletico Madrid will not provide the option of extending the loan period if Barcelona is not willing to redeem him at the price offered. So this condition will make it even more difficult for Barcelona to get João Félix for next season and the fairly expensive price will definitely make João Félix's official move to Barcelona even more difficult. João Félix's current performance can be said to be much better than when he was loaned to Chelsea in the previous season, so Xavi Hernandez intends to submit an offer to Atletico Madrid to be signed permanently.

In the loan clause from Atletico Madrid last season, Barcelona was not obliged to provide contract for the harvester. It is possible that if João Félix's price above 100 million euros, Barcelona will have difficulty signing him permanently and he will return back to Atletico Madrid or sell to the other team who want pay more expensive fees.
Now it really depends on the readiness of funds from Barcelona and if they have sufficient finances then João Félix will definitely become a full Barcelona player. However, if you look at the financial condition, it is unlikely that Barcelona will be able to make a permanent purchase option for João Félix and forcing him to buy will make Barcelona's financial condition even more problematic.

This is just another reminder to we all gamblers that no bet is sure and guaranteed, don't ever use an amount of money you are not comfortable to lose just because you feel convicted in your mind that the game will play as predicted. There's no such thing as sure bet in gambling.
If you know that then leave gambling which it is irresponsible and a case like this is not the first time this has happened because there have been several previous cases too. Loss of common sense makes someone decide to commit suicide and for me this is quite ridiculous and stupid.

Question: Is there any amount lost that can make you commit suicide?
Of course, people will commit suicide because they experience big losses or it could be that the money they use to gamble is not theirs, so when they experience defeat they experience inner pressure to return people's money.

If yes, then don't ever use such amount to gamble.
Gambling people with a more responsible budget can definitely control themselves compared to people who spend money on gambling after working hard. For example, they use bonus money or overtime at work to gamble and may not be active gamblers.
410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who should quit, and why? on: December 15, 2023, 05:06:12 PM
In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.

Would it help if  one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.
This is a much more complicated situation where both of them are involved in gambling so that no one is able to control the finances, but I also want to know whether the two couples are active gamblers or they only carry out gambling activities with a budget that has been prepared so as not to disrupt cash flow to meet his living needs. It's rare to find two couples active at the same time in gambling and perhaps of the many people out in the world, only a small percentage carry out gambling activities simultaneously.

It's not a matter of talking about who should stop gambling, but rather that both of them need to think about their lives so they don't get trapped in increasingly serious financial problems. If both of them gamble irresponsibly then I am sure their finances will be in trouble and their daily living needs will be quite disturbed by gambling activities carried out irresponsibly.
411  Economy / Economics / Re: One of the biggest problem in our society is that average person don't have on: December 15, 2023, 04:38:08 PM
Everyone who is still alive in this world must have their own self-worth even though their work is very different for each person and the issue of capital is also the same, where each person can obtain it in varying ways through their own lives. There are those who get it through working for other people for a certain period of time and there are also those who only hope for an inheritance from their own parents and there are also those who get it through work in government agencies which can be passed straight away when their studies are finished.

So there are many types and ways to obtain capital to use for things desired by each person or ourselves. And one more thing, people who have certain skills can also get capital in their own way because certain skills can usually be rewarded with much better value in certain companies or in government agencies that need them.
It will be much more difficult for small people to get a loan from any budget because they will never give us the opportunity to get a decent loan. Another issue is whether with loans we can develop our business to be more advanced with so much competition now. This is still a big problem for some people because apart from capital, skills are also needed to develop a business, including when we want to invest in Bitcoin, for example.

The small opportunities currently available make it difficult for people to develop their own potential, especially if they are faced with unstable financial problems because there are many people out there who do not have the opportunity to develop their own potential due to the limited number of basic problems.
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 15, 2023, 04:06:16 PM
The season may look to have more to offer but right now we almost done with the first half of the season and any team at a top position and still but in as much effort in the next half of the season can have a very good turn out at the end of the season.
Well if I were to say who would be in the top six position at the end of the season I would say Arsenal at the first position just because I think they are solid and deserve it and then Manchester city, Liverpool and Aston villa then in six and fifth would be Newcastle and Tottenham.
I have a little doubt about Arsenal's ability to end the season in the top rankings, the English league is not about whether they deserve it or not but rather how consistently they stay in the competition. Last season, no one said that Man City would finish in first place because Arsenal had such a long distance in points, but in the end in the last 10 matches Arsenal were unable to maintain their position so Man City came out as champions.

This season everything has changed where Liverpool has once again become a strong club that has a much greater chance of becoming a champion. I would put Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City as the strongest candidates to fight for the title, but I see Liverpool's chances as being much bigger compared to two other strong challengers.

Xavi wants to make Joao Felix deal permanent and the player is already very willing to do so. Because he is already playing for his dream team at the moment. He is giving his best in games to make a good level of contribution to the team as well. Only thing left is to convince Atletico Madrid to make the signing.

But first Barcelona's offer will need to be convincing as well. Because his current market value is 50 million euros and Atletico Madrid wouldn't like to let him go for a cheap price. They already want to part ways with Felix normally.
I'm not sure Barcelona have enough money to make a deal with Atletico Madrid to make Felix permanent. Barcelona's poor finances will hinder the negotiation process, not to mention a number of players who still have large salaries, making Barcelona have to think about recruiting players like Felix who still have good bargaining value on the market. Felix was no longer wanted by Atletico Madrid in previous seasons and he was never an option in Diego Simeone's main squad.

Barcelona offered a loan to Atletico Madrid and everything changed when Felix returned with hopes of playing for one of the best clubs in La Liga. Making Felix permanent makes the Barcelona squad stronger because this season he has provided something quite good for the team, but they need to think about the club's finances if they want to do this.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 14, 2023, 07:38:51 PM
It's true that Erik ten hag has really performed so badly at old Trafford especially this season but then Potter isn't a good option for replacement of Erik ten hag if Manchester united wants to get a trophy by the end of this season, except other wise because Potter's approach is not such that can give desired results in a short period of time.

Talking about time I think Ten hag doesn't need any time rather he needs to be relieved if his job, before now he had all the time but was unable to perform as expected of him, in his first season in Manchester united he did pretty well but this season has been his worse and it doesn't seem like he was even willing to make necessary adjustments, sacking him is very much needed if Manchester united will get something out of the league this season but potter isn't a good replacement because he isn't smart enough he ma even need more time to help Manchester united get back fully on their feet.
Erik Ten Hak continues to be forced to produce positive results in every match, but we forget the number of selfish players he currently has which have had quite a big impact. For me, there are a number of problems within Man United and it's not just about Erik Ten Hak, Erik Ten Hak's mistake may only be in placing trust in the players and even though he made big mistakes he still provides opportunities to play.

If asked who was most responsible for Man United's failure in the Champions League, I would answer Onana because he made many blunders which resulted in Man United only being able to score one win in the group phase. The level of creativity of the players is also quite questionable because of the 11 players he fielded, none of them were able to play above average ability and the level of the players was quite boring.
415  Economy / Economics / Re: One of the biggest problem in our society is that average person don't have on: December 14, 2023, 06:34:09 PM
Average person don't have access to capital flow.
And cryptocurrency should be working that way like the average person so everybody can have access to capital and make wealthy themselfes and family.
Now If you go to the bank to ask money even If they see you have good skills good knowledge they still don't give you If you not meet the criteria of requirements.  
This is the most basic problem that makes it quite difficult for people to get involved in it and financing capital is the biggest trigger why people find it difficult to get it. Banks have their own criteria for providing loans and perhaps not many people can access loans that are outside their needs criteria. Many people are trapped because they lack capital to develop their potential and that's not just talking about crypto, almost everywhere they will have to stop when they don't have the money.

But to meet with those requirements it's allmost impossible. (The game is rigged)
And even If you get the funds you pay back with high % you end up just working for those who got money it's humilation but all they have done is just they been born into right family the upper class to get good education so they can be privileged and If you meet with them and talk many of them  they are not genius at all but what they have in common is that they want to get profit from someone else hard work and they can do that only because they are the very few people who got access to capital and most of the people don't.  
When there is no choice, people will work under someone else's system and we are made only as workers who are indirectly forced by the system, then this class is quite despicable. But talking about there being no opportunity for people to decide whether they are happy or not, it is only a matter of existing choices and in the end they will continue to be trapped in work with other people's systems. Higher education is also unable to create large employment opportunities because people are trapped with a small flow of funds and it is difficult to get business capital from any party so that everything has to stop.

In reality we have to be a little open that not everyone is destined to be rich because of certain limitations that might make it difficult for people to achieve it. You know that not everyone is familiar with crypto/bitcoin, there are many people who cannot build a business and there are many people who were born into hard poverty.

Can someone please guide is it a good practice to start investing in Bitcoin in this upcoming January-2024
It is much better for you to take the opportunity now to invest because the most important thing is not whether the practice is good or not but rather the availability of capital and strategy when you want to get involved in investing. Of course not only that because knowledge is needed when you want to invest and forcing investment without understanding the journey of bitcoin will create a big risk impact for you personally. Prices can change so quickly and we will continue to live a four-year cycle, that's how bitcoin continues its journey in the market that we need to understand.

Remember that price fluctuations can give you a sense of excessive worry and ultimately limited knowledge can have a detrimental effect. It is not recommended to invest without knowledge and I am sure you understand this problem because there are no real newcomers when they get to know this forum.
417  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Young student teaching his classmates about Bitcoin on: December 14, 2023, 05:30:45 PM
Asked why Henry is so curious about Bitcoin, his mother said "Henry is surrounded by Bitcoin. His dad and I talk about it all the time. There's always a Bitcoin podcast in the background and Henry often asks the question 'How does Bitcoin go up and down?'"
It is not surprising that there are young people who understand the bitcoin side much better than some adults because the availability of technology makes it easier for them to know many things. Especially if it is like the case you raise here and this child is surrounded by parents who are very familiar with bitcoin so that their daily life will definitely be quite easy to recognize and will be quite familiar with bitcoin.

I think this is how I will teach my child about Bitcoin.
I have a child that I want to raise from an early age to experience Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.Now that he is only 6 years old I think he has enough time to learn.
At the age of 6 it is not productive to teach children directly about Bitcoin because they still need formal education to form their own character. But just introducing them in general would be much better because it can lead them to become better prepared individuals when they grow up. Bitcoin has a far superior side because it does not know age and bitcoin was not created for a certain group, so all that is needed is a person's sense of responsibility to take an approach and be responsible for the chosen effort.
418  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can anyone be a Bitcoin speculation expert? on: December 14, 2023, 05:07:39 PM
Nobody can be confident in what they are speculating about bitcoin and we also cannot boast on it either, if anyone does that them they are lying to you, by default you should know that bitcoin should either rise or fall and there's nothing we can do about that, but the side at which we are supporting is what is being determined by the level of our research while speculating on the market, if people can be that confident in their speculations to be accurate, nobody will be running loss while trading again. 
Everyone can speculate about bitcoin and everyone can also provide any analysis based on what they know because it is based on their views and experience. But unfortunately there is no 100% level of accuracy regarding Bitcoin price speculation, as you said because if the level of accuracy is high then no one will experience losses when trading. Most of us probably only use predictions as a comparison when it comes to approaching bitcoin and that's why people need speculators.

But the final decision still has to be accompanied by the extent to which a person can make a decision and usually we have instincts before making that decision. Therefore, speculation about prices is important for us to use as a reference, at least this is an initial reference before making a final decision.

and so here is 2 scenarios of people on $15/hour and $20/hour and a basic breakdown of expected expense..
things like putting 15% into pension before tax.
then after tax putting ~10% into savings/personal choice investments
30% into housing. and so on
It is quite dependent on how a person can make money every day from the work he does, the work conditions that are difficult to get will force people to think many things to start. Undergoing investment, expenditure and savings is a choice that must be run because when entering old age our lives will be better.

so lets see people views on how they would tweak the numbers of expenses to their personal preference to still cover essentials but maximise either a nicer lifestyle or more investing
Usually I make a permanent expenditure list for each month, children's school fees and the cost of daily living needs, after the fulfillment is achieved, the rest will be invested in several places and also allocate for savings as much as possible. Of course it is not an easy problem with maintaining consistency to do that but if we want to enjoy older good age, this must be prioritized, while the amount of investment, savings and expenses can still be adjusted to the monthly income.

recently i get help from some good people to open wallet for bitcoin.
im a kid for this world but my age is not.
May 25, 2018, 04:54:25 PM my account activation date.
now i curious to know more about this world, how its work, how to start here.
how can i help someone.
This will be quite risky for some people who know how because getting help opening a bitcoin wallet from someone else has the potential for them knowing your private key so that when a lot of bitcoins are collected, security is very worrying. My suggestion is to change to another wallet if you intend to invest it and leave the one made by someone else as a lesson for opening a wallet. Your account was created a long time ago and it shouldn't be difficult to create a bitcoin wallet because there are lots of discussions on forums about bitcoin wallets that are safe to use.

How can you possibly help other people when you yourself don't understand how to create a bitcoin wallet even though you have been actively registered on the forum for quite a long time. Read a lot so that you have broader knowledge because teaching other people to knowledge like yours will not provide comparable knowledge to other people.
