@Wizarab10 People think it's just blatantly bad calls but no it's the little one that really affect teams. Imagine the mental pressure on you when you know that the smallest mistake you make will cost you while the other team can get away with murder.

PARENTS should have a right to decide how much responsibility to give their kids.

Sadly, government often thinks it knows best. One mom, Deborah Harrell, was arrested for letting her daughter play in a park for a day. Her daughter was taken away for weeks:

The entire point of the World Cup is to be shamelessly delusional about your country.

We could lose by 10 goals, and the Ghanaians who chose to believe would still be justified in that belief.

The journey is the destination.

It's actually quite rare to see a wealthy person wearing a nice suit. This is because dressing well is more about knowledge than money, and wealthy people are typically not invested in learning how to dress well. I will give you some examples.

In slide one, we see two powerful, wealthy men, both in custom-tailored suits. Sunak's jacket is too short, both in the body and the sleeves. Bezos, who is pictured here on his wedding day (when he would have wanted to dress well), is wearing a custom dinner suit but with the wrong waistcoat. The low armholes are also causing his jacket to lift. A famous bespoke tailor in Milan said Bezos's outfit made her heart break.

In slides two and three, we see a high school art teacher and an electrician. They are not poor, but their vocations certainly place them several tiers below the former Prime Minister of Britain and one of the wealthiest men in the world. Yet, their clothes fit beautifully, and they are styled in a way that's thoughtful and coherent.

In slide four, we see a man who claims he's wearing a bespoke $20,000 suit from one of the finest tailoring houses on Savile Row. Next to him, in the same slide, is a man wearing a $300 Jos A. Bank suit. The $20k blue suit does not fit well because this man interjected too much during the fitting, insisting to his tailor that he make the suit tighter and shorter, which is why the garment is pulling and rippling all over the place. The other man, despite having more modest means, educated himself on how a suit should fit and achieved more with considerably less.

Online, you will find all types of influencers and writers hawking the latest trends and designer labels, telling you you have to buy such-and-such thing to have "aura." But in reality, money has very little correlation with style. There's no reason to assume that wealthy people can buy nice suits because it's not as simple as pulling out your credit card. You have to educate yourself a bit on the topic.

@nogojiggy @stillthbeeb_CFC Yep. They both achieved something with their national team Messi never did - break a ceiling

In the ancient world, the way many people gained great wealth was by forming gangs of strong men, beating up their neighbors, and taking their stuff.

People still speak with admiration of men like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, but they were little better than gangsters who enriched themselves through armed robbery.

This was a negative sum game, and assured that people remained poor and unhappy for thousands of years.

Eventually, however, we figured out that respecting each other’s rights, building things, and trading meant that we could play positive sum games instead. We could increase the amount of wealth, and all would benefit. As a result, we moved from living in unheated shacks to living in what our ancestors would’ve thought of as paradise in only a few hundred years.

However, there are still people out there who think that beating someone up and taking their stuff is a really great idea.

It is the great task of our civilization to shun such people, as they are not fit to be part of society.
