Topic: Look for what to invest, not what to eat - page 12. (Read 1694 times)

If we don't eat, then we can put it all in bitcoin, but that is impossible, right? This is only possible for those rich people who can feed themselves even if they put all their salary in bitcoin. People are not the same; others have a ton of extra money, and others are short. I also used my crypto when I really needed it and my salary was not enough. That was really my purpose in having bitcoin: to help me financially in this kind of situation.

Maybe because they don't have a real job then they spend all their salary per week on food. I know what you mean, do you want people here to invest it and not spend it to make the Bitcoin prices rising up? I agree with you, but I admit hard for doing that, I ever try to keep all my salary to Bitcoin, but by the time and inflation here is very high, and all basic needs going up. so that situation make me exchange a few bitcoin for fiat to meet daily needs.

We do have our own ways on handling our own lives which there are people who are really that mindful about making investment via cutting those food portions or allocations because they do know that they would be
needing to sacrifice at least they are really that waiting for something but of course it does really still accompanied with some luck because not all investment turns out to be positive all over the years to come,
which means its neither you would succeed or fail or your investment will really come to waste.This is why people would really be hesitating on making such step because of the tendency or chances
for them to miss out those opportunity.

LOL, from your title you really don't agree with me, investing is necessary but if you want to invest then reduce the number of food portions I think this is crazy, in my mind I fulfill basic needs first then invest if I have more money, not vice versa
but I respect your choice

The circumstances are not the same for everyone, i really appreciate your concerns but for a moment think about it, what if you hadn't eaten or in great need of money, what would you do if you have nothing other than some accounts like you mentioned BTT account, but i have seen the one who try to sell his/her account always get banned both the buyer and seller and red tag is awarded to both of them, but i have seen people selling their fiver and Upwork accounts for the need of money. Why do they do it, you said, they should not do it instead they should work on those accounts and earn a hell lot of money.

I have two explanations for you, One is they might be in some kind of emergency because that's when most of people start to sell their assets, like home appliances, properties, smartphones, etc. and I pray to Allah that, no one has to face that time,

The Second explanation is, a minority of people has millionaire mind, like take the example of Website flipping, most of webmasters make one website, do all types of SEO strategies and other tips to make that website famous in their respective niche, they get enough traffic on it so that they can flip (sell) it for a bundle of dollars, while let's say if they are making $100 dollars a month from those websites, they can earn $5000 dollars from it by selling it. According to my experience, a good niche takes 1 year to make $100 a month, and if the person runs the same website for 5 years he will earn only $6000 dollars while if at the end of the year, he sells that website for $5000 dollars ( which is a good rate) then again in each year from 5, he can make 5 websites and can earn a total of $25,000 dollars while back then he was earning only $6000 dollars. So i hope you might get my point.

The point to be noted here is that i am not encouraging anyone to sell or buy their BTT accounts as you took in examples because i am against it. i just shared some facts about why some people tend to eat not invest. Maybe i took the meaning of your post wrong, please correct me, if yes.

People that are selling their account are not doing it because they are hungry, or they are looking for something to eat. It could be because they have more than one account. So they need to sell the other one when they can no longer maintain it. Also, people that build their account from member to Legendary, can you tell me how building their account have made them to invest so much in bitcoin and became rich. One does not need to own an account in this forum before they begin to invest in cryptocurrency and Bitcoin.

So there is no true connection, in the write up concerning account selling. What I know is that selling of account is allowed in this forum but discouraged.

OP your topic is not bad  but I would like to say something and please do not get me wrong. I was trying to pick out from your post here how to handle the situation but I realized that it is not so as you think. Let me start by saying this,  it is only when you have  been able to satisfy your needs that is when you can be able to concentrate on what ever you want to do. Do not forget that a hungry man is an angry man. So by saying this you should be able to know that where I am driving to but however, there are limits to some certain exercise but when in excess without control then it tends to be a challenge and addiction. So in the modest, you should know that eating has to be controlled so as not to get it over you.

Investment is not a bad idea because with your investment, your capital will be raking some profits for you whenever it is due but you should be able to make good intuition of your investment before going into it.

However, investment does not only mean your money working for you, you sometimes must invest your time in building up your skills, knowledge and other espect of life to gain relevance. Just like OP said here about building your account to a better rank through meaningful activities and contributions here, this is ok to go by as you will benefit from it as time goes on. It is also an investment too and it doesn't require finance for you to start with.

If the priority factor of food supply is not fulfilled because of low income then how can we save or invest, we must understand the definition of saving and investing is saving money from income/salary for unexpected needs, saving money has nothing to do with basic needs to buy food or other routine needs. So before you achieve economic stability, you don't have to save and invest because your finances are only sufficient to buy your daily food needs. You must increase the economy of other jobs to provide sufficient income that can be set aside for future savings.

Those you mean in the lower class who can still live normally can also have other investments besides houses. Because everyone whose life conditions are still running normally, of course, still has the opportunity to make investments in other fields as long as they have the will to do so. Because no one is immediately rich in this world except by just continuing to try and work hard to get what they are targeting in their life, so all of this depends on how much their will and effort is in making it happen so they can have some investments like those of those who already rich.

It is good you look for what to invest but first you have to look for what to eat.
The most essential need of man is food. You cant be looking for what to invest with an empty stomach.
Sourcing for what to eat will not stop you from sourcing for what to invest. It ia just a thing of priority. If you already have what to survive with then you can invest. You need to also know that you dont invest with all you have to survive with considering the risk involved in an investment and it also depend on the kind of investment you are embarking on. Bitcoin investment for instance is a good example of an investment you dont dive into with all your savings without leaving behind what to survive with.
We all know how important an investment is and if you must invest properly and profitably, you need to eat first. Not just to eat but good food.

I think it depends on the situation and condition of the person. If he doesn't have food at all (starving) then of course finding food is the priority. but if he has a sufficient supply of food and he has extra cash left unused. then only in that situation people can save and invest.

But if we want to find food without spending our money then selling food is the solution. such as making ready-to-eat food products. and we can eat it too while we trade. but that's for the situation of people who have capital but don't have a business. and he needs to spend his money to buy food.

Nowadays, basic commodities are very important in every day of human life. And it cannot be lost or neglected. Because if it's not met every day, it just appears that you can't find a way to meet this need.

And besides that, it will only be easy to do if you are a strategic person that no matter what you do, can find a way for you to have income or money every day of your life.

If you said you have never see some people write up that they have full member and Hiro member account to sell in this bitcointalk.org , you are deceiving yourself because, many legendary members has opposed their secret that they are scammers looking for people money to scam. Yes, I said it that there are many legendary that started working in the signature campaign and their investments are everywhere in their countries, I believe you are among the people that focused in their investment some years ago to became successful investors in the land. I know someone must eat, but we need to encourage them to be more focus about their future, so that they will have a good future that will bear the name of this community.

Health and education are things that must be prioritized for yourself, it is important more than anything else.
investment is indeed very important for the future, but don't forget that the life we live now is far more important and nothing guarantees that we will live longer to enjoy the results of what is invested.
what you say is very true, don't let us hold back for ourselves just to invest, so it's better to meet our own needs then the rest to invest.

Prioritize your basic needs, such as food and health, before investing. Don't invest more than you can afford to lose, and remember that investing should not come at the cost of compromising your well-being. After all, investing in your future is important, but it should only be done after taking care of yourself first.

Investment is not bad thing but everyone cannot afford it and people prefer getting food rather than investment because they don't have little amount of money which they can only use for daily expenses.

People are sometimes not interested in the online investment because first thing is their income which cannot necessitates it and other thing is their unawareness, may they find a way to earn quick income which is not possible with investment.

People sometimes sell their accounts may be they need some money to manage life because we don't know about personal condition of anyone and may be this account is free with him and not in a use so therefore every individuals thinks differently and their thoughts differ widely from each others.

I think the OP has very good intentions but his problem was his inability to express himself in this thread. I know he understands that every human needs essential commodities to survive but he failed to state that. Rather he categorized both essential needs and wants as "what to eat". I am assuming that he wanted to advise members not to seek immediate benefits but always consider the future. His inability to express his intention has clearly led to the insinuation that he is advising members to starve because they need to invest. My question now is that who will benefit from the investment if the investor die of hunger?

Account selling is prohibited iirc, investment is a luxury that not a lot can afford, imo if they see selling their accounts as a way to make money instead of just using it themselves to get themselves campaigns then let them be, it's not like they are keeping up a sustainable income, they will eventually get tired especially with the vigilance of the veteran forum users against accounts with questionable background.

TBH, I have never seen a person selling his personal account but the ones that he used to farm. AccountSeller was one example and he openly did it and people were stupid enough to fall for those accounts. Then came the merits system which made it almost impossible for these accounts to sell because low level accounts are of no use and they need merits to grow it up now, which is a great initiative by theymos to stop account sales. It's not considered illegal here, however if caught, is tagged negative so that it remains of no use to the buyer. It's actually easy to spot that an account has changed hands by checking the difference in posts made since the beginning of account creation and the recent ones.
And yes, for those who have been here since early stage (considering me as well), I'd say that we used to earn at least BTC0.4 weekly through signature campaigns and it was a time then, and now is the time that we compete to get in a signature campaign for about BTC0.003-0.005 (depending on the pay of the campaign)

Nobody will ever have the chance to do something that will improve their future and choose to ignore it, it is a fact. But the circumstances change many people's attitudes toward their objectives, so many people that want to sell their Bitcoin assets or something else that will be advantageous to them in the future, it is condition that make them do so. The best thing for every human being is to put survival before anything else. To maintain excellent health, we all require sufficient hygiene.Know that nothing in a human being's life will be worthwhile without good health.Many users who sell their Bitcointalk accounts do so for a variety of reasons.
