To 'Suck multiple breasts,' in trading and finance

[Cryptomultiplier]

‎I don't intend to be raw or vulgar, but the phrase 'suck breast,' is just a metaphor used mostly in certain regions in West Africa, which is used to describe financial independence.
‎
‎If related to trading and finance it would be a term to emphasize diversification of which suggests a trader or worker shouldn't rely on only one asset or strategy to earn extra income.
‎The idea of 'sucking multiple breasts,' rests on the principle that, in case one breast stops producing milk, the other source will be the backup.
‎
‎Therefore, it is highly recommended and encouraged that salaried workers and those who earn from only one income stream, should start trading, they should learn more strategies, they should venture into other businesses, so that they can have more than one breast to survive and build wealth on.

This topic has long been over discussed, with the current compounding problems and the lack of new salary structures I think a salary earner or one business income earner shouldn’t be advised on seeking alternative(s) source of income because I think the ever increasing financial burden will definitely make such person seek this alternative.

Nonetheless I think the choice of choosing an alternative should seriously be made base on the person niche or something more comforting for them, for some who works most off in many days of the week, they might not have the time and resources for Trading, rather I will suggest investing with bitcoin now providing better ROI than some other businesses we see today. The alternative shouldn’t kill offer the first or main source of income except where it yields better returns and can cover for both income.

The phrase is really strange, but it holds a great meaning, having multiple source of income is important but very important to those people that are earning very poor salary, the money some people earn is very poor that they complain of not having even enough to feed talk more of having the one to save. People in these category needs to double their source of income, why those that are earning a massive amount as salary can Invest in assets that will be generating passive income to them. Trading has a bit of sophistication, if you learn different strategy, you might not master anyone but when you learn one strategy very well, you could still make profit but you have to be consistent and always learn new things that can also enhance that your strategy.

It is good to diversify, not depending on just a single job but trading is not that easy. Trading can be what a salary earner or income earner will regret in his life. I am not saying they should not trade but from their 100% earning, they should not use more than 5 or 10% to trade and see trading like gambling but they should learn how they can earn money with it which is possible than in gambling, but the risks in trading is as high as the risks in gambling. Financial management is very important.

We should not use all money for anything and capital used for investment or trading must be only parts of our finance, not all of it.

We possibly can get profit or loss from our investment or trading while we can not exclude risk of getting loss from investment and trading. Loss can come with our activities in trading and investment anytime, and by that truly exisiting risk, we should not consider that investment or trading will always result in profit that is our only income.

We have to live but to live well, we should not let our finance, income only depends on one thing, from our job, salary to profit from investment or trading. Diversify our income sources is a good way to decentralize our income and risk, which if we can manage to do, will be better for our life quality.

Trading seems a little much easier if one has another source of income or sources of income, but then over "diversification" can affect your trading activity in that the other occupations may take up your time, and you not be able to follow up on what's going in the market.
This is why some people just opt to buy and wait for years while they do other things, which is also good enough

Diversification is indeed good because people don't rely on one aspect of income but have many opportunities to earn additional income from several sources. When it comes to trading, it's important to increase your trading knowledge because not everyone is successful, and a large percentage of people fail in trading. It's also important to remember that when someone has multiple jobs, their focus is divided which can lead to concerns about not achieving optimal results. For example, being involved in both trading and business makes it really difficult to focus on running them simultaneously. It's better to focus on one thing at a time so we can learn to start correctly and can impact our future success.

salaried workers and those who earn from only one income stream, should start trading

I would tread carefully there, it's good if you're expert at trading. Being salaryman and all and still have time to find the edge and beat all those expert traders out there but 90% isn't profitable. The additional source of income that supposedly make your finance stronger become a trap.

I think if anybody don't really got the time to be on and find the edge like most of salaryman who went 9-5, I think they should just invest in bitcoin. It's proven to be effective and won't make you lose your money.

Not all things that are fancy could really bring you money, in the case of this, trading is one of the most difficult thing to do for people already tired of working.

‎What are your thoughts!

You're on point. I've had to discuss this on several occasions with friends and acquaintances, seeing the dangerous path of financial dependency and want my country is headed. For those earning from one source of income without a side hustle, I wonder how they cope with expenses.

No matter how critical people are of trading, I still advise that anyone in this industry who is interested in buffering their financial status should learn trading. Just take the time and learn it. Don't rush into it like those who condemn it; who of course, obviously, went into trading with the mindset of gambling. Trading isn't gambling. People should know that.

Expert traders are who get profit in long time of trading in the market. They are only deserved to be called as expert traders if they have profit and don't confuse them with senior traders who only have experience in the market but can not get net profit from trading.

Expert traders and senior traders, they are very different, even they have enough time and experience, their trading results and their net trading results are different, experts have profit, senior have losses.

The market is tricky, volatile and unpredictable so if you only have experience in the market, but don't have enough knowledge, skills and discipline, you are losers in this market even your time here is 5 years, 10 years or even 15 years.

Expert or senior traders, when you are in trading, use stop loss order or better stop limit order.

Are you sure you're talking about financial independence? To depend on the breast for milk is exactly the opposite. To suck multiple breasts even worse

Believe me, the more you try to suck, the less you get out of it. Your mouth can only fit one.

Choose BTC.

[DPHOR]

Multiple sources of income is not longer a new thing over here as people has been talking about this for long, although there are people who are not that rational in terms of making additional source of income rather than relying only one source, or maybe be trying to trade on different trade and and invest another coin rather putting their eggs on one basket which shouldn't be that encouraging as anything could likely happened at any time. So, this is no longer something new again rather trying to used any way to expressed your words.

[Strongkored]

The phrase would be very vulgar in my country 

‎‎What are your thoughts!

People really shouldn't rely on just one source of income, they should have at least two sources of income so that if one has a problem, the other still provides earnings. However, this is not always easy to achieve for those living in countries with limited job opportunities, and even if they are interested in starting a business, they may be hindered by funding, so they have to fight harder to be able to have two or more sources of income.

This makes sense. There's nothing wrong with trading; that's another source of income if you are profitable.
Accumulating Bitcoin is also fine along the way, which the majority of people do instead.

From what OPs perspective, I can see what he mean is just having multiple source of income and he suggested to explore trading as another source, which make sense too and possible.

Lol your choice of topic for diversification compared to breast and breast milk appears new to me and it is not really the way the part of west Africa where I come from see it. Breast is not usually a word said just anywhere.

However, to the discussion, diversification has been properly been discussed here and it is very important for every household not to have just one source of income. Diversification is quite important to hedge on inflation especially if you invest in area where you can earn either in foreign currency like dollar Euro pounds yaun etc. Or if you invest in digital currency like btc. But most times if our investment is not generating foreign earning, we might just be struggling as if there is no diversification because of same inflation that will eat up the investment.

[Potato Chips]

LOL. I am not from Africa, so I'm a bit culture shocked by this metaphor.  

But I get it from your explanation, and I agree with it. I guess it is similar to the saying "don't pull all your eggs in one basket" which I am more familiar with—and probably majority of folks here as well. Because it doesn't only entail of assets and investments, it could also apply to any sources of income IMO.

[boyptc]

Trading can be tried but everyone, however it is not for everyone who has no passion and luck in it.

Therefore, I agree about having multiple sources of income and it's not only trading that they can choose.

So as they earn, they can have multiple investments that includes Bitcoin in it and that's how many of us have became more independent financially.

That metaphor really gives the idea of having more baskets to put with our eggs.

[sokani]

I want people to have multiple streams of income, but I'm a bit surprised. Of all the different skills, such as web design, graphic design, data analysis, software development, etc., you could have thought of, the first one that came into your mind is trading. Trading is bad entirely, but it's very risky, and as such, it should be the least on anyone's mind. Only a handful of persons are making it through trading. The majority are at a loss.

There is nothing better than having a multiple source of income and this can make things less easier for those of us that want to be profitable making money from their various skills. Even though you have a job, that doesn't mean that it's is cool to have just one source of income which can be your job that is not certain that it can feed you giving adequate job security's because that is what everybody want. Since you can get sacked from your job at anytime depending on the wish of your boss, it is not good to be heavily relied on your job.

Yeah possible source of income is not the same as financial independence is what I was trying to point out I guess.

Show me one trader who successfully made his trading as income for 15 years since BTC came out, I will show you 1000s more who lost money.

I'm one of those thousands, and I want people to understand and realize this, that's all
