When it is Madrid it is Madrid and every player wants to play for Madrid. You saw the press statement by the club owners that nobody wants to leave the club, when you’re big you’re big. I think Rodrygo will gradually get game time, the season has just began there are still plenty of games to be played and players will get fatigued and injured so he will certainly get his time.
Real Madrid remains a big team that all the players will love to remain and represent the club in all competitions but you see the area of some players not getting enough playing time in the team I think the press statement should go a long way to address that and Incase some people still don't understand what Xabi is doing in the team, he is not sure of his best team yet that's why he changes the formation of the team most times in their matches. Rodrigo just need to be in good form that is the only way he will be given a playing time in the team for now I think Xabi Alonso is not considering any player as his best for now.

This is normal because every season there are always some players who don't get playing time, and that's a condition where competition and priorities for the coach's plans come into play, because seeing some players who don't get enough playing time is not only the case in Madrid but also in Barcelona, Atletico, or even other clubs.

When a coach tries to implement certain strategies, including training plans and player lineups, it inevitably means sacrificing certain things, including playing time for players who don't fit into the planned scheme. So, it's not really that unusual.
The reason some players aren't given enough playing time is often overblown, as clubs naturally aim to perform well each season, and this requires a well-thought-out plan, including player selection.
We know that last season in Madrid we often discussed Arda not getting playing time under Ancelotti, and now under Xabi we are always arguing about Rodrygo not getting more playing time. But we realize that there are only 11 players on the field and competition always exists, not only for the club but also between players and between positions.

Semoga Konoha akan kembali damai dan stabil.
Hari ini kondisi stabil dan terlihat sangat damai diluaran meskipun kita tahu bahwa kondisi ini sedikit dipaksakan agar kita tidak tahu apa yang terjadi di lokasi demo. Pemberitaan sedikit berkurang, media sosial kembali tenang hanya karena itu ada desakan dari pemerintah yang memang tidak mencoba menyebarkan situasi demo dan media sosial beberapa diantaranya ditutup untuk beberapa fitur seperti ketika mencoba terlalu keras dalam kritik atau menampilkan reels atau video tentang demo dianggap sebagai pelanggaran bahkan beberapa aplikasi untuk live nya ditutup karena sebelumnya untuk platform aplikasi yang memiliki akses live selalu dipergunakan untuk membuat update situasi.

Hari ini di daerah saya mulai kembali turun ke jalan dan tujuannya tetap sama seperti biasanya karena sebelumnya ada sedikit ketegangan yang membuat demo dibubarkan dan hari ini di tempat saya kembali melakukan hal tersebut tetapi tidak tahu apa yang akan terjadi nantinya karena memang selalu saja ada beberapa provokator (tidak bisa dipungkiri) mereka memang selalu nyaru diantara banyaknya pendemo yang membuat situasi menjadi sedikit sulit dikendalikan.

Disisi lain sekarang pemerintah mulai mencoba untuk cuci tangan dengan beberapa hal termasuk beberapa pengeluaran keputusan dadakan dan tentu pencitraan untuk membuat mereka terlihat seperti pahlawan.

In my country, what causes economy problems is the rise of petroleum, fuel and other gaseous substance, once the price of these chemicals go up, then the economy is in doom where it's hard to solve the problems, everything rises in price even a product that doesn't use fuel to function.

The amazing part is that, the government officials never care much about this but always come up with fail projects to lift this matter.
It seems that this situation occurs in almost all countries, but not all countries or officials are indifferent to policies or current events. Some large countries that are serious about their development always do their best, but this is not the case in developing and underdeveloped countries where corruption is still rampant and some officials and politicians sometimes act solely for their own personal gain. Ultimately, this situation like this clearly become different.

The issue of price increases, especially for fuel, as well as several economic problems caused by food exports will clearly have an impact, but what distinguishes this issue is the role of the government because it can have a significant impact in the end .

Your statement only makes sense if you want to suggest that through "market manipulation" we should do something to influence the market participants to sell less and create artificial "scarcity".
Well, that is not an easy thing to do in Bitcoin Market any more...
Currently, many parties are constantly doing this, including several countries and their rulers with their regulations, influencers with the hype they always build, and of course, fake news from several media outlets that encourage this because indirectly, this also creates the illusion of manipulation used to drain emotions, steps that must be taken, and strategies, including for some traders and those who always experience FOMO.

This has become an inseparable driving force because, although not everyone likes the decline in Bitcoin or when Bitcoin crashes, ultimately this is also a process that cannot be separated from Bitcoin itself. This is because when value wants to grow, fluctuations must always move to support a bright future, considering that with the existing system, we are aware that when there is a decline, an increase is definitely on the horizon, and we are just waiting for it.

I wondered how Arsenal dominated at Anfield during the first half, Liverpool scored luckily else Arsenal defense team was just too strong for Liverpool. Honestly I have not seen Arsenal top performance yet this current season, I also expected more although Arteta should know when to do some changes if possible the first players should be ready to withstand both first and second half not the usual match we watch always even with top new players. Liverpool at the other hand had no option rather they played really well along side the whole situation, how they handled Arsenal was impressive still Liverpool is the first club to score Arsenal ever when the new season started all thanks to the free kick played by Szoboszlai, what a brilliant shot.
Talking about this big match, I found it boring, especially the first half, which felt quite monotonous to me. Although it cannot be denied that this is a big match, I still expected more from a match between two big clubs like this, but this match felt like any other, even though it was quite eagerly awaited.
However, regardless of anything else, we all know that ultimately, it’s the three points that matter, and Liverpool managed to secure them once again, even though only one goal was scored in this match.


What I like about the EPL is the surprises that happen in the end, and this week there were some surprises that were quite entertaining for me, especially when I saw Brighton and West Ham, who had previously been in complete disarray, manage to surprise everyone by securing three points. Facing Manchester City with their dominance, Brighton was a surprise in itself for me, and West Ham, after two heavy defeats in the previous two weeks, looked like a completely different team in their match against Nottingham Forest.

Re: 99% of players will never get rich on bets.

So I wonder what motivates people who want to get rich on sports betting if they believe in such a pattern? Do the players sincerely believe in their own exceptionalism and genius?
Statistically, the longer they play their chances of winning is bigger than a few bets so they keep betting as long as they can. And it is not wrong if they are not betting then they can't win any money right? But also house always wins in the longer runs which is average of all the wagered not the individual rewards so as a individual they can go and try to win some money that is the conclusion why they are betting longer.
I don't think so, because looking at the bets we make, it doesn't matter how long or how short we play, but rather how much odds the bookie gives in the bets that will happen later.


Even if we are just starting to play, if the odds offered are high enough, especially for multi bets, it is still very possible for them to occur. Conversely, even if we gamble for a long time, when the odds seem easy, usually for matches that are not too balanced in terms of strength, it is certain that we will only get a small profit because the odds also clearly favor one club.

Therefore, there is no fixed rule regarding how long or short we should gamble, as the situation in betting remains the same, with the odds in the bet serving as the benchmark.

Thinking of a 2-leg multi like this for today. There is total odds of 2.50. Roma might look risky but I trust them to keep winning.
Looking at the opponents they will face, it is actually not a problem to bet on 1x2 in this match, including for Roma, because they are currently on a positive trend, so betting on 1x2 will not be a big problem, I think. However, there could be some unexpected situations in this match.

I actually prefer playing BTTS and Handicap, but given the odds offered, it’s not a bad idea to try 1x2 here.
This could be an easy match for both teams, especially for Napoli, who seem to be riding high on their early-season momentum, as seen in their first match. Even without Lukaku, their goal-scoring productivity remains very good. Considering that their opponents are below them in terms of level, this clearly gives us a significant advantage.

Fulham have lost the match to Chelsea after Chelsea doubled their goal with a penalty kick by Fernandez. Fulham performance was good in the first half but in the second half, Chelsea dominated the game and won possession because they were two goals ahead.

Canciedo and Jao Pedro played brilliantly in today's match. Jao Pedro have scored five goals in five appearances. What a good start for him in Stamford bridge. Fulham played on pressure throughout the second half and that limited their chances of finding the back of the net.
Fulham played with enthusiasm in this match, but that alone was not enough because in the end they had to admit Chelsea's superiority, even though their performance was not too bad.

VAR disrupted them because it caused them to lose momentum. Their first goal was disallowed and a foul in the penalty box caused the first VAR review to be repeated, forcing them to lose the momentum they had built up in this match.

On the other hand, Chelsea clearly showed their dominance, although there are still some things that need to be improved, but Chelsea is slowly getting their performance back at the start of this season.
With this result, Chelsea has started to climb to a slightly better position, even though there are still several matches going on now, but in the end, this could be a good morale boost for them to continue to navigate the next matches, which are starting to get more and more crowded.

Their inability to qualify for the Champions League might have contributed to the reason why the Portuguese coach was sacked.  They played good football in the first leg but struggled in the second leg in Lisbon. Jose would have to reevaluate his coaching strategy because it seems not to be working effectively.
Of course, Mourinho's dismissal was due to his failure to lead Fenerbahce to qualify for the 2024/2025 Champions League league phase, a 1-0 aggregate defeat to Benfica in the playoff round was the reason Fenerbahce management terminated their cooperation with Mourinho. It seems Mourinho magic is starting to become ineffective in modern football, before joining the Turkish club, he was also fired by AS Roma in early 2024. Mourinho is not the first person to be sacked at the start of the 2025/2026 season. Previously, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was also fired by Besiktas after failing to qualify for the UEFA Conference League phase.

Mou's emphasis on conventional schemes and game plans, while a very good thing, will ultimately prove to be of little use in modern football today.
It is indeed excellent when a coach maintains their distinctive style, but the risks are clearly enormous. For Mou, this is not the first time he has lost his job mid-season simply because of his idealism regarding conventional game schemes, which he always emphasizes when coaching a club.

Fenerbahce knows that they must make a quick decision, even if it is risky, but they are still at the beginning of the season, which means that the new coach can adjust the conditions so that they can survive in the current situation with regeneration and new adjustments with the new coach. However, there is still no further news about who will replace Mou in the coaching position.

Mungkin untuk hampir semua pengguna forum saat ini media sosial atau yang melihat langsung pasti tahu dengan kejadian yang terjadi dalam beberapa hari terakhir di negara kita ketika semua dimulai dari kebijakan pemerintah yang membuat regulasi absurd dengan menaikan tunjangan untuk wakil rakyat (katanya) dengan nominal yang sangat fantastis di kondisi ekonomi saat ini sedang sangat sulit yang membuat saudara-saudara kita dari semua kalangan turun ke jalan untuk menuntut keadilan agar mereka para pemangku kebijakan tidak semena-mena dengan aturan dan regulasi hanya untuk keuntungan diri mereka pribadi dan koleganya.

Ini jelas aib, duka dan tentu situasi yang memuakan untuk dilihat karena seharusnya dengan sistem demokrasi dan bhineka tunggal ika yang digunakan sebagai semboyan kita jelas harusnya kondisi seperti ini tidak terjadi di negara kita teatapi mirisnya hal seperti ni justru selalu terjadi hampir di setiap tahun hanya karena kebijakan pemerintah yang terkesan semena-mena dengan menjunjung ini sebagai hal yang baik untuk masyarakatnya tetapi kita tahu masyarakat yang mana yang mereka wakili.

Puncaknya adalah hari ini dimana kekacauan terjadi dimana klimaksnya ada sopir ojol yang dilindas aparat sampai meninggal yang membuat ini menjadi semakin kacau dan tidak terkendali. Sebenarnya tidak hanya 1 orang yang dilindas di demo kali ini tetapi ada sekitar 6 orang yang dilindas (bahkan bisa lebih) hanya saja korban yang parah sampai masuk rumah sakit ada 2 orang dimana 1 warga sukabumi yang alhamdulilahnya masih selamat dan 1 lagi warga jakarta yang memang kita tahu dia meninggal karena tidak sanggup survive setelah dilarikan ke rumah sakit.

Sialnya kondisi seperti ini selalu terjadi dimana mereka para pemangku jabatan yang memulai berbuat ulah dengan kebijakan yang dimiliki tetapi ketika kondisi seperti ini dimana demo dan masyarakat turun ke jalan kita selalu dihadapkan dengan aparat penegak hukum dimana TNI, Polri yang menjadi lawan seolah-olah kita dipaksa untuk bertarung dan diadu domba sepanjang tahun oleh yang katanya wakil rakyat yang ingin mensejahterakan negara padahal itu hanya topeng yang dibangun dengan citra yang aslinya hanyalah sifat bangsat yang dimiliki.

Memang mungkin dalam hal ini tidak akan ada asap kalau tidak ada api serta kita juga tidak bisa menyalahkan sepenuhnya TNI Polri disini tetapi tentu saja mereka juga tidak bisa dibenarkan ketika memukul mundur masyarakat dengan senjata dan fasilitas yang sialnya itu juga di danai oleh masyarakat dari hasil pajak yang dikumpulkan.
Selalu saja ada provokasi yang mungkin bisa saja ini menjadi alat terselubung untuk mengadu domba (who knows) tetapi kembali lagi apakah memang pada akhinrya itu menjadi sebanding dengan apa yang dilakukan masyarakat yang hanya ingin menutut keadilan justru dipaksa di bungkam dengan kekuasaan yang mereka miliki?

Jujur saja saya mulai gerah dengan situasi di negara kita ini karena memang siapa yang harus kita percaya sekarang jika pemerintahnya saja menggunakan kekuasaan dari jabatannya untuk membuat kita sengsara dan ketika kita mulai merespon dengan tindakan mereka justru mengerahkan pasukan dengan persenjataan yang di danai oleh Masyarakat itu sendiri untuk membuat kita tidak bisa apa-apa.

Ini sebenarnya adalah hal memalukan dan aib untuk dilihat negara lain apalagi negara tetangga, duka untuk masyarakat di seluruh negara indonesia serta hal yang paling memuakan karena terus selalu terjadi tetapi itulah kenyataan nya dan jika seperti ini terus maka negara kita hanya akan perlahan-lahan hancur dan bisa saja demo orba di 98 kembali terjadi.

I’m impressed with Xabi Alonso,s input so far. I can see a better playing style and a gradual build of good team work within the players, I also noticed he is getting a better understanding of how best to utilize his star studded team to the best of their ability. If they fully get an understanding of Xabi’s philosophy and team work they will be an excellent team to watch.
What still needs to be improved now is the build-up of attacks, especially Madrid's signature quick counterattacks, which still need to be honed because, judging from their dominance and determination, they are actually quite good, but there are still some gaps that make them less than optimal at certain moments. However, overall, what Xabi is doing now is very good, and we cannot deny that.

Week 3 is just around the corner, where Madrid will host Mallorca at the Bernabeu, which clearly raises expectations for Madrid's final result. They are the favorites, but Mallorca is not an easy opponent when it comes to defense. When facing clubs that are above their level, they will definitely focus on defense, which could frustrate Madrid's players.
However, Madrid's mentality is still strong, and we will wait to see if Madrid can secure three points in this match or if a surprise awaits.

Re: Does sign campaign payments directly to the casino make you to gamble?

To answer my own question in title:

I am receiving current sign payments directly to casino, and I have spent some. Because why not?   Grin

What about you?
As long as we have no problem with that, why not? I could do the same thing, even though for now I am still paid in bitcoin, not directly to the casino, but if that happens, then I can do that.

But on the other hand, I also won't use all the money I earn from the campaign for gambling because, to be honest, it slightly violates the limits I currently have in terms of the amount I have to spend each week.
Therefore, I will still withdraw a portion but leave the rest in line with the limits I always set for myself—not exceeding that amount, even though the money comes from the same gambling signature campaign. Of course, the choice is up to each individual, and I certainly don't expect the entire amount I receive to be spent, because if this habit develops, it will be dangerous for me.

A tough win by Bayern against the 3rd league SV Wehen Wiesbaden. What most expected to be a walk in the park for Bayern was anything but. Bayern was indeed the dominating team and after taking a 2-0 lead everyone thought the game was over, but Wiesbaden made an amazing comeback.
Harry Kane missed a penalty for the first time since joining Bayern (in competitive games), but he redeemed himself by scoring a last-second winner. It was a great show overall, especially for the home fans.

Some could be concerned about Bayern conceding 2 goals from such a low-rated team, but they did play with a heavily rotated squad, so I don't think that's much to be concerned about.

Bayern were too complacent with their attacking focus and the two goals that made them comfortable, but this actually put them in a slightly more difficult situation in the second half, although their mentality was intact, and a goal in extra time secured the victory.

SV Wehen Wiesbaden knew they would have a hard time keeping up with Bayern, so they prioritized defense, and I think they were quite capable of making Bayern struggle in this match, although mentality was clearly the deciding factor.

This was a decent match, and SV Wehen Wiesbaden deserves credit, even though Bayern ultimately won. However, given SV Wehen Wiesbaden's performance, which is clearly far below Bayern in terms of level, popularity, and player quality, they deserve credit, even if they were eliminated quickly by the DFB.

Just be patience. Napoli is working on it, and they have almost reached agreement with MU for Hojlund's transfer. I've heard they will get him with obligation to buy worth 45m pound. That amounts sounds better caused by MU bought him for 72m pound. That's 27m pound realized loss suffer by MU.

Time is ticking, and Hojlund will come to the naples asap. 
Ultimately, when will Manchester United's player transfer business turn a profit? They're always losing money. Cheesy But now, letting Hojlund go is clearly a good option, because even if forced into the Premier League, Hojlund's performance has clearly declined, and it would be better for him to return to Serie A.

Furthermore, I think Napoli also wants this player, especially since they still have the return from the Osimhen transfer, so this price is still quite reasonable, especially since we know Lukaku can't be forced to join them this season.
The transfer window is entering its final phase, and I think this will be completed soon. It would be pointless to continue pushing negotiations with time running out, as this would only result in losses for both clubs. Manchester United would lose more money, and Napoli would certainly lose one of their attacking forces, which could affect their performance.

The story just sounds absurd to me, because how could you possibly earn nearly 1 Bitcoin just by picking cans and selling them? It seems too far-fetched.

however, i agree that finding a side hustle to accumulate bitcoin is a good option, because by using the money from your side hustle, you can allocate it to investing in bitcoin, and do so long-term. this way, you can focus solely on investing in bitcoin, while building your portfolio until you reach your target, while at the same time, the money from your primary income is solely focused on your personal needs and savings.
The main point I can take away is that finding any job that can provide income to survive and allow us to buy more Bitcoin without having to adjust our budget further from our income is certainly a very positive and reasonable thing. Regardless of whether the story about the can hunter is true or not, I personally don't really care because he probably always gets at least hundreds of kilos of cans a week, lol.

On the other hand, this may ultimately be encouraging for some people, especially beginners who believe motivational quotes like this. However, I have a slight concern about those who focus too much on what others have and try to implement the same thing without understanding the risks that could occur at any time. Considering the background of two years ago compared to now, it's clear this will be a multiple benefit. For now, even though I strongly believe Bitcoin will be much more than this in the long term, for new people or those just getting started with Bitcoin, they always want to avoid the short-term impact, so it's still important to learn how Bitcoin works before actually investing in it.

Btw apakah ada rumor kalau MU bakal beli GK baru atau tidak? Kalau ga salah Januari lalu ada rumor kalau Bayindir bakal exit, dan onana juga dikabarkan bakal dijual, tapi sampe sekarang ga ada perubahan. Setelah performa memalukan di Carabao Cup (kalau dari tim yang main di divisi 4), beberapa fans bilang kalau harusnya board nyari GK daripada fokus di attack. Gampang sih bilang gitu kalau kondisinya udah terjadi, tapi mau komplain juga susah kalau ga ada perubahan sama sekali.
Sebelumnya ada beberapa rumor tentang Senne Lammens yang notabene saat ini adalah pemain dari Antwerp yang dirumorkan ingin di datangkan Manchester United tetapi pemberitaan ini tidak terlalu ramai karena memang mungkin bukan nama besar yang dikaitkan sehingga rumor ini sepi dan perlahan-lahan tidak ada kejelasan tetapi dengan melihat kondisi sekarang terutama kalah dari klub divisi 3 jelas ini butuh evaluasi besar besaran lagi untuk Manchester United termasuk dalam kondisi kiper. Onana? Ah sudahlah saya tidak ingin terlalu banyak membahas tentang orang ini :3


Saya cukup tertarik untuk membahas beberapa pemain timnas kita sebenarnya ketika berbicara tentang transfer pemain. Saat ini beberapa pemain di timnas kita mulai dengan klub baru seperti Diks yang memang sudah menjadi pemain Monchengladbach dan Jay Idzes yang sudah berseragam Sasuolo sekarang dan jelas itu akan menambah persaingan baru dan peningkatan kualitas mereka nantinya tetapi untuk beberapa pemain lain seperti Rafael Struick atau beberapa waktu lalu profesor kita Tom Haye saat ini mulai menjajaki liga 1 di Indonesia apakah pada akhinrya ini akan berjalan baik untuk mereka atau justru penurunan kualitas yang terjadi?

Saat ini Struick berseragam Dewa United dan Tom Haye memilih Persib sebagai petualangan barunya meskipun tentu saja kita tahu bahwa ini adalah salah satu klub besar di liga 1 tetapi pada akhirnya kita tidak memungkiri bahwa kapasitas dan level jelas berbeda untuk kualitas eropa dan liga domestik di negara kita yang memang terkadang masih mirip tarkam dan ajang adu jotos dibanding dengan skill sepak bola yang dipertontonkan.

Two matches with one loss and one draw clearly reduce their chances, so I think it's reasonable for bookmakers to give Atletico these odds because they have been a little worrying since the start.

Although this kind of performance seems somewhat normal for Atletico, as every year they start the season poorly and slowly build hope, winning the title is clearly very difficult.
In the end, we will only see competition until the end between Barcelona and Real Madrid, because every season is like this (except for the 2020 season), so I don't have high hopes for Atletico.

They have always been a top club in La Liga, which is undeniable, but making them a contender for the trophy seems very difficult because Simeone has always been monotonous every season and is only ever satisfied with a Champions League spot.
Atletico Madrid doesn't seem ready for the big games this season because how can they be missing out on good points when the season just kickoff? If Los Colchoneros are losing stands and points in this early phase of La Liga then I wonder what they will do when it's mid-season, how will they be able to cope? Games are played and elite teams have targets, they're not dropping any charge other than facing themselves with formidable stands and leaning on big winnings. Barcelona and Real Madrid are enchancing their performances for this season, definitely not the time to give excuses rather pushing for outstanding results.
Actually, this pattern always occurs for Atletico almost every season, but when facing big matches such as when meeting rival club Madrid or playing big matches with Barcelona, they always perform better because of their bus parking scheme, which allows them to at least defend themselves, even though this method is not very popular with some people, including me. However, they always do this to thwart their opponents, but when facing clubs that are below their level, Atletico always plays boldly, but their defensive line ends up being very weak.

Losing to Espanyol and drawing against Elche is clearly not a good situation for them, but these first two matches won't make them lose momentum because I'm sure they'll eventually return to their position in the top four, which they've held for several seasons. However, when it comes to competing for the title, they clearly have no hope of achieving that.

Because all they can think about is obsession and fantasizing about winning big and improving their quality of life, they may not really enjoy gambling because the original intention of gambling is not to make us happy but to make us want to escape from our lives by betting on big wins.

This is indeed very easy to happen to those who have poor control, and there have even been cases where they are willing to borrow money just to satisfy their desire and curiosity in gambling and to win, which only makes the situation worse.
Therefore, in this case, we must always remind ourselves and, as much as possible, force ourselves to know our limits because when we consider it trivial, we are already one step closer to addiction, which could destroy our lives.

Best to have certain limitation and make sure to practice following that setup, else, you may fall into addiction and make the situation worse, we all know that feeling that deisre will lead us to keep chasing either to hope to recover our losses or to aim for more money to win, it's  mix emotions that needed to control as if you allow greed to dominate, chances that you'll fall and become an addict where you are no longer thinking but you just wanted to continue to please your desire to gamble.
The problem that occurs now is that many gamblers fail to exercise self-discipline, which leads to their downfall due to a lack of discipline and behavior that sometimes underestimates gambling, even though it is clearly a wrong action.

Thoughts such as gambling being very easy to do without becoming addicted and assuming that we are capable enough to handle gambling well, but not doing what should be done with discipline and self-control, including within clear gambling limits, is clearly a wrong action that ultimately backfires on ourselves.
The mentality that needs to be maintained from the start is often forgotten by many gamblers, causing them to abandon the maturity and responsibility that should have been cultivated from the beginning, making addiction easier to develop.

They want to win they stopped thinking about anything except gambling. Addicts do not remember the feeling of playing for fun. They started by playing for fun using little money. One day they started playing for money and stopped having fun. Addicts do not get excited they lost enjoyment when addiction took over their life.

When we are not born with a silver spoon in our mouths, all we can do is continue to strive to become better people because, after all, we are aware that this is what we must do since we cannot live if we do not stand on our own two feet.

Money is always one of the attractions that cannot be separated because in today's system, we cannot live (it is possible but difficult) if we do not have money in our pockets.
Even though this is not the law of the jungle, we realize that the caste system is always an implicit reality where the richer we are, the easier it is to make life more secure because money has special privileges. Today, money can bring success, including allowing us to live without worrying about how to do it.
