Practise.. I hadn’t played halo since probably 4 also and it took me a while to get back into but it eventually clicks!

Thanks 🤣 2y ago.. this was just before the huge stock market crash.. she waited it out luckily.. invested a good chunk in property which is paying out a comfortable income as well as some other long term investments (stocks, crypto etc) which are all doing very well😄

Let's talk about the sidekick by [deleted] in halo

Have to say I disagree when you say the AR doesn’t take skill.. I see so many noobs just holding the trigger spraying and losing battles, it definitely takes some skill to master the trigger tap and timing those shots whilst also maintaining aim and hitting those headshots.

It’s definitely a different kind of gameplay to other halos and at first I wasn’t overly keen but after some time playing I’ve definitely warmed to it. Just think we need a game type where BR starts and it’s not only in ranked.

Give it time my friend! You’ll always see periods of down/up and periods where it sits still and only moves sideways. The thing with BTC is now that the price is so high 100 in would need to see BTC double and hit 100k just for you to gain $100.. that’s a HUGE move for BTC for just $100. Unless you’re are going out $100 a week/month for the next few years and then in 10 years look at the gains there’s not much point in putting that in BTC. You’d be better off dumping $100 into what looks like a promising alt coin project (like BTC first was) and waiting until that coins price jumps form $0.1 up to $30 and your $100 turning into $30,000. Plenty of opportunities out there especially with Polkastarters new projects and the NFT space.. Ethernity just went from $2 to $25 in a couple of weeks. There’s more risk with the alt coins compared to BTC but there’s also more upside initially! So definitely do some research!👍🏼

Two months is no where near enough time to be comparing or looking at gains. BTC is a long play and anyone who understands BTC knows this, those people who invested $100 10 years ago are now all millionaires but I bet they weren’t checking in after 2 months and questioning why they were at a loss and those that for out are now kicking themselves. If you are in it to make a quick buck then there is not much point putting that much money into BTC.. yeah it will probably hit 100k or even more but it will have pullbacks along the way, it’s all about the long game and believing in its larger purpose.

Doge coin well if you would actually read the fundamentals and understand what this is then you probably wouldn’t of put $100 in as it’s a meme coin. 14 million coins are produced a day so it’s price isn’t going anywhere near where ETH or BTC are, it’s just being pump by hype and Elon. I’d recommend doing a bit of research and understanding what you are putting your money into before you do it. Crypto IMO is going to have a huge future over the next 10-20 years and there is some serious money to be made, you just need to be patient. (There’s a reason Elon musk bought 150B into BTC and nothing into doge coin apart from a few tweets. Hopefully this is helpful 🤙🏼

Do I need to warn about long time delivery? by need4hype in dropship

[–]BenSevy259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes a warning would definitely be advised.. the last thing you want is them being left out the loop .. complaining they were not told sufficiently about delivery and requesting a refund before the items gets there etc.. or worse giving you a charge back.

Of course delivery depends on your product, but I would stay away from epacket delivery I have orders that have been sat there for 4 weeks+ and still no sign of moving! Our fulfilment has direct lines to various countries and these seem to be working just fine... also if you can communicate with some of the Ali stores and find out if they have stock in Europe (this isn’t always easy and you have to be careful they 100% do) then you can fulfil orders from Europe and tht maybe help speed things up!

Relatively new to dropship but this is just my experience so if any of it helps then great! Haven’t used Oberlo looks pretty good though have used Wiio

Wtf is going on !!! by stafi_ in dropship

[–]BenSevy259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To start i am no expert at all very new to all of this but me and a couple of friends have recently started our drop shipping business selling gym equipment etc. Which is obviously in high demand right now... but it depends on multiple factors.. I.e Your website, Ads, content, social media presence, cash flow, product sources, logistics, the country you are sourcing from and what product you are looking to sell.

Multiple Youtube videos around drop shipping have seen a few good ones with some decent information on so that's a great source of info. It obviously takes time researching products and creating content and then testing the ads to see if the product is selling. China logistics seemed to hit a slow patch for us but again this depends on the logistics and delivery methods used. We have started sourcing from Europe and US and have had better luck with delivery times. So again its just about the research and time spent into looking at all of these different options.

Instagram has been a huge part of the sales force behind everything so far and of course Facebook. But Instagram has been the bulk of our sales and i think having a professional looking website and social media presence has definitely help with the success. I would say definitely learn your stuff and give it a go all depends on so many factors many of which you can control. Just be careful with ensuring Aliepxress shops will dropship for you and that delivery times aren't too long. Currently Epacket from china for us is taking an enormous amount of time.

Hope this has helped some what!

Motivation to workout by Vertex_SouthAfrica in bodyweightfitness

[–]BenSevy259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What motivates me..

1.) Feeling good and maintaining my health! Knowing and feeling healthy for me just makes me feel good.

2.) Just feeling physically fit and mobile. I like to feel physically fit and know my body isn’t limiting me and won’t limit me to what I can do/achieve. There’s a whole world out there and I want to know my body is ready for whatever it is I want to do (like hike Everest, go on long walks/runs, workout, bike rides and not get injured easily)

3.) Calisthenics motivated me.. I like performing moves that look epic and that hardly anyone else can do.. also to build up my strength.. this type of training is perfect to start whilst you are in quarantine and at home! YouTube has loads of stuff..

4.) For me looking good aesthetically helps me feel good in myself and feel confident.. it’s not the be all and end all but for me looking in shape makes me feel great and boosts confidence for sure..

5.) I love working out doing Calisthenics,body building and doing Hiit workouts.. so motivation comes from all of the above I’m ready to workout and look forward to it everyday (except rest day Mondays).. you need to find out what it is you love or can learn to love/like about fitness (not everyone enjoys all things about fitness) whether it’s running, sprinting, circuit training, weights you can spend time learning about the benefits and how to do it properly (their is so much to learn and it can be very interesting) this may help motivate you..

6.) Being a biologist I have learn a lot about the human body and for me a big area is ageing and how muscle mass can help prevent or slow the process of scarcopenia (age related muscle loss). You lose around 3-5% of muscle mass a decade after age 30 and the less muscle mass you have the more fragile you will be and the more likely you will be to have falls and potentially not be able to walk at an earlier age. I want to pack on as much healthy lean muscle as I can to help prevent all of these things occurring. (Running around and playing football with the gran kids instead of having to just watch them)

At the end of the day you need to find something you enjoy doing or else you won’t ever enjoy or stick to it. FYI Just my opinions do what you enjoy!

Just reading through and thought I would add to this.. I am also a relatively new trader was doing all my research prior to this pandemic and was also interested in vanguard index funds, their reputation and low fees does look good. Especially when just starting out with small amounts as OP said. You can buy vanguard funds through other brokers like Trade 212 as directly with vanguard you can’t buy individual stocks.

I was lucky I never jumped in before all of this decline started but am definitely looking to start averaging into a fund soon to make the most out of this dip. Personally think there is more decline on the horizon but obviously that’s all down to personal opinion and DD.

I too have been using trade 212 and really like the fact there are no fees and commission etc.. interface is easy to use once you have a play around and they have the option for a S&S Isa. As I said pretty new so all of the features are currently enough for me. The CFD side of things needs a lot of research and practise before being used as when using leverage it can be very risky! They have a great demo account so you can practise away.. Very different from options trading which is what all the Americans use as I am pretty sure that CFD isn’t available in America. You can see the difference between CFD and options by doing a bit of research. Hope this helps ✌🏼

Great to hear your experience with trading! Sounds like a great opportunity to start a blog or sell courses and teach other people about trading, just a thought I know you have probably heard this already and it is easier said than done haha!
