Hee Haw!
Now clap your hands everybody, this Dude seems to have reinvented the Wheel (of Fortune)!
Probably he’s a Billions Club Influencer having earned a Virtual Masters Degree in Cyber Jack N Smart Assing at TikTok Academy.
Seriously, Human Beings are no Input/Output Devices.
Unfortunately, the “Professional Smile’s” Wear N Tear establishes queer Sorts of Conduct and Workplace Communication.
Career Planning: Intern … Associate … Blockhead … Tunnel Visionary … Expat … Repat … Golden Parachute … Privileged Retiree … Six Feet Under … Nirvana … do you get it?
Too many Co-Workers and CEOs are at odds with mutual Empathy, Team Spirit and Drive for Accomplishments.
Socialising, Rapport (Respect, Response, Responsiveness, Responsibility) and Aim for Ambition is all you need, but not a Report on TED that is to make Sense.
Man, why don’t you just get on with your Homework, for sake.
Just, one more thing, please don’t take this too seriously, for Life’s much too serious.

Sorry but no. Not asking question when you should is the worst way to demonstrate competency. Instead of saying, “I’ll do my best”, it says, “I don’t care what y’all do, I’ll do it my own way and make it up as I go.”

Good analysis. Technical analysis can be helpful, but I think It is quite puzzling that well-known cryptocurrency youtubers just look at pure T.A and completely Ignore the bigger narrative of why BTC Is pumping and dumping, why the future outlook might not be as rosy as it seems. It’s kinda irresponsible to ignore the fact that each ETF launch so far has caused a major dump at the peaks of BTC.. We were already on shaky footing with historically low volume and almost pure whale pumps and dumps, narrowly avoiding a long-term bear market. more emphasis should be put into day trading as It is less affected by the unpredictable nature of the Market.. I have made over 11btc from day trading with Gabriel Harrison , insights and signals in less than 3 weeks, this is one of the Best medium to backup your assets incase it goes bearish…

No doubt mate, I’m also benefiting greatly from her investment platform and is been amazing and profitable. If you don’t have Bitcoin, consider it as being cheap. If you have, you know it’s cheap.

Buying bitcoin doesn’t make you a winner, the ability to make profit daily out of your capital is what makes you a winner. stop depending on the market price to make profit, choose Trading over Holding it
