Yeah, it is true that having a degree is not an access to securing a job not to even talk of a good job but no matter anything, having a degree is good because there is this feelings of confidence that comes with going through the four walls of the higher institutions and attain a degree at least even if it will not guarantee getting a job but the knowledge you acquire in your field of study may be useful to you in the future. The question is do having a degree in a specific field of study means anything? NO it doesn't because if it does we should not have people who studied other courses in a different jobs that is outside their area of study. Many people in the world today are working in places where what they studied are not relevant. The labor market is too competitive since there are lots of graduates out there applying for same positions when there is little vacancy for such jobs and that is why making sure to establish a business of your own should be given priority then if you are lucky to apply for a job and you are hired, it will be a plus for you since you already own a business.

For the past weeks, our country has become alarmed by the growing addiction to gambling, because of the many billboards proliferating, influencers promoting gambling sites, and TV commercials and sponsorships on TV shows.

Due to this, many lawmakers proposed a total ban on gambling, which was opposed by various sectors due to the tax implications and job losses, leading them to suggest a stricter restriction.

Strict restriction means the regulators order all billboards to be taken down, influencers to take down their posts and stop posting, and all sponsorships to be stopped.

Do you think seeing no gambling, hearing no gambling, and talking no gambling, not even a mention of a gambling site, will decrease addiction? Is it a good resolution?

This growing number of addictions here in our country started because of the massive marketing and influence of celebrities. Your thoughts on this?

I always thought that trading was mostly based on hype, I mean, the price of the coin or stock goes up when there is a positive signal, when the company announces something cool, when the coin gets listed on many exchanges, when the coin implements something cool and so on. If trading is based on fundamental and technical analysis, then doesn't it make trading a little strange? I mean, if it's like a chess, then everyone with a computer can beat others without a computer. If it's all math and technical things, then it's easy as ABC. I think that it's both. There are moments when technical analysis works but the difference is that this harmony gets violated when a hot news drops on crypto news websites or on Twitter.

Of course we have passed it as at now, bitcoin is now standing tall above $113k and still waxing stronger with promises of still going higher.

With this development, I can speculate that $120k is just around the corner and it wouldn't take much time until we surely get there. Many people thought that the Bullrun is over when the price started experiencing negative correction and panic sold. Such people people would be in big regrets now seeing that the bulls are on it again.

Truly, risks are worth taking but not to take the kind of risk that will downgrade you to 'lose your chair and sit on the floor' just because of the mentality that without risks that there will be no gain. Gambling is a game that if you don't truly understand its ethics, you will be among those that the society will caption as wayward but if you are someone that understands that this is something that no matter how smart you are, how learned you are, how experienced you are, it will still require luck to be progressive but if you have that urge of making it huge at all cost, you will spend more money and become a slave to gambling such that you can't even be able to help yourself anymore which the end result will always fall on addiction.

Many banks are against the cryptocurrency and thst perspective should be change because we know cryptocurrency is best to invest and crypto investors know that  is best for them to save money. Cryptocurrency is all about research and Invest and save that money. Many of the banks in my country don't understand and they always try to eat the money of people who are cryptocurrency investors and they are doing trading on exchanges .  Banks have different rules and they made these rules for their benefits because they want more money, I saw many banks which are doing scams on the name of fake currency but they have no evidence of that.They find the account in which more amount is transfer and then they inquire that .

It should all depend on your preference, right?

If you consider Bitcoin (BTC) a safe haven for storing value, then you should choose Bitcoin (BTC). However, if you specifically want to hold Monero (XMR), then choose Monero (XMR) without having to automatically convert to Bitcoin (BTC). It's not difficult to choose, because it really should depend on preference.

I think the most important thing you have presented for new traders through your speech is the fundamental and technical analysis of the market. And that must be achieved through the use of a demo account before starting to trade. To enhance trading proficiency it is essential to acquire a solid understanding of money and risk management, which I believe will play a crucial role in mitigating emotional influences.

Gambling includes plethora of games, various sports to bet on but doesn't it all boil down to money in the end? More the money involved, more the thrill.

Suppose, as title says — you had infinite amount of money, would you still gamble?

Personally, I can't see myself giving two fucks when I don't care for money in first place. Would you?

The above picture states very clearly the regret most Bitcoin investors are going through now.
I was just going through my telegram page when I bump into this in one of the crypto airdrop group, so I decided to share.

Most times as humans we feel more regret for the action we didn't take than the ones we took.
25 October 2011 he was happy that he didn't buy Bitcoin when it was $2.70, but comparing gap in price between then and now, is quite a lot to feel regretful.
So in my own opinion, now is not too late to buy Bitcoin because it's still in it early days, and am quite positive that in 10 to 20 years time from now, Bitcoin has the capability of doing 10x to 15x of it current price, so it is best to act now that the opportunity is still there.

I have observed that if you increase your needs, the new 'increased need state' becomes your new norm after a while. For example, if you didn't have car before but then you purchase it, use it regularly and then when you don't have it anymore — you'll miss your car, you'll feel like you can't live without it even though you managed to live without it before.

Do you agree with this observation? Would you agree that it's better to not increase your needs in first place?

Is over 3 months now btc is experiencing lost, in my little way I use 1 million naira to invest and ever since then I don't feel like sleeping because my money keeps dropping every now and then, I don't know how long this drops is going to continue because am scared the little money I thought will built empire is shrinking to 200k. Please what's causing these deflection of cryptos and markets. Or should I remove the remaining balance?

For those who aren't sure, you should try a test: play and if you have a small profit, stop and play the next day, If you're lucky enough to continue winning do it this way for at least 6-10 months and tell me the results, The trick is that both in the game and in trading, if we view it as a business we would have a better chance of winning, When you play one day and don't win you'll lose very little. You must have the discipline to stop playing, wait for another day to play.

Profits in business are always small, minimal, but in the long term, they are large you just have to be patient.

That's correct, having a mentor that is well experienced gives you an edge to get the knowledge faster hence you learn through his life experiences and the journey he went through while learning until he got to the position he is now they you are learning from him. A good mentor builds your mindset so that you can handle bad days in trading that's the more reason why watching videos online alone shouldn't be the only place you learn trading. Time, patience, consistency and opportunity utilization are some of the required tools of a good trader after gaining the required skills if you have these things you can trade without expecting more losses.

Following the bullishness of the market, we’ve seen Bitcoin and altcoins moving uptrend without showing any signs of slowing down. Memecoins particularly have been gaining momentum, this made me put more attention on them.

Considering, lot of memecoins enter the market daily, i made some research on how i can filter out the potential ones and so far buying coins on ChainX has made me good returns. The cex has an ongoing New signup 150K usdt prize...anyone can participate..

The fact it gives degen traders access to the potential and high value coins early has been a game changer for me. what's your thought on entry strategy

Has anyone else noticed that these days, having a university degree does not seem to guarantee a good job anymore? In the US, more than 40% of new graduates are working in jobs that don’t even need a degree! In the UK and Canada, youth unemployment is even higher, and entry-level jobs are much harder to get. Now, for each job, there are more than 100 people applying

A lot of people blame technology (especially AI, robots and automation) for stealing jobs. But the truth is more complicated. Companies are using AI to get rid of simple tasks, yes, but they’re also sending jobs to cheaper countries. And when there are jobs, many companies do not care about your university name anymore. They want to see if you really have the skills or special training for that job. That means people have to pay even more to get extra “certificates” after graduating

Meanwhile, graduates are stuck with debt and stress. Many young people feel lost, frustrated, and even angry, like society promised them something it can’t deliver. In the past, too many frustrated young people has led to big changes. Sometimes for the better, sometimes not. Do you think the old way of working (one job, one company, climbing step by step) is over? Now, I see many young people having several jobs, working on short projects, or even starting small businesses on the side. In a recent report, more than half of workers noticed more people working two or more jobs

Is university still worth it today? Are “extra skills” and certificates just another money-making trick? Has anyone here found success without a degree, or by learning something new outside of school? Is this the start of a new way of working, or just a big mess?

I’m interested in your opinions and experiences regarding purchasing sports tips. Do you think it’s worth investing money in tipsters if you knew they have proven results? I know that even trusted tipsters cannot guarantee consistent winnings due to the unpredictability of sports events. But if there was a transparent website that monitored and ranked tipsters, showing verified results and high ROI, would you buy tips from them?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

What happens to your crypto if something happens to you?  Have you really prepared for that?
This is something that’s been on my mind lately ,and I think it’s something many of us in the crypto space avoid talking about.

We go to great lengths to protect our private keys and seed phrases. Cold wallets, metal backups, multi-sig setups... we lock everything down so no one but us has access. That’s great for security — but what if you suddenly die or fall into a coma? Would your spouse, kids, or family be able to access your crypto?

A lot of people might say, “I’ve written it down somewhere, they’ll figure it out.” But let’s be honest — in a real emergency, things get messy. Crypto isn’t like a traditional bank account where someone can just present a death certificate and get access. If you haven’t made a clear and secure plan, your coins could end up lost forever.

I actually know someone this happened to — a guy I met a while back died unexpectedly in an accident. He had a cold wallet with a decent chunk of BTC, and to this day, his wife still hasn’t been able to recover any of it. He didn’t use any kind of inheritance system or trusted setup. It’s just... gone.

Whether someone will live a simple or luxurious life after becoming a trader depends on how they do it and how much profit they make. The amount of profit one can make from trading will depend on two things: how good they are as a trader, and how much capital they have. A profit of 5% a day with a $10,000 capital is $500, whereas 5% of $500 is only $25. So, considering how much money one has to start their trading journey, and whether they can stay profitable in it, one can live a luxurious life as well, especially if they live in a country where the value of USD is very high and the money they earn from the market might convert to a lot of money in their local currency.

I live in a third-world country, so even if I make $100 a day, I can live a very luxurious life, and can afford anything, but if someone lives in a first-world or developed country, such as the US, it might be considered a below-average income because if one full meal costs barely $5 in my country, it costs more than $20 there, roughly.

So, it all depends on how good you are at trading, how much your capital is, and where you live. What can give someone a luxurious experience in one region might not be enough for one to survive in another.

I know that gambling too often can lead to a kind of addiction, so I try to play 2 days a week. Although some weeks I play a little more. Recently I have been gambling too often because I was winning so often. But I have brought myself under control and convinced myself that this could be the cause of my addiction.

Yes, I definitely gamble with limits, I never let my deposit amount exceed $100. And I only deposit once a day, which is within my rules. Because I know very well that if I make a habit of depositing multiple times even after losing, it will arouse my emotions. That's where I might lose with my emotions, and become addicted, which will be a serious loss for me.
