“what a failed moment for me. This would be my first moment of receiving this kind of beautiful failure. How can I fix this and to what extent would those around me feel? Oh, no…. I have fallen deeply”.
Erick is just someone who is filled up with pride and would never want to listen to people's thoughts except his idea. He had seen himself to be a genius among his equals. He has the gifts of predicting things in the realm of both gaming and crypto markets.
One night, he went straight to a bar to enjoy himself after having a tough day at work. His boss, Mr Jay would always want him to carry out some certain job being the “Mr Know All”. Even with his pride, he would still claim to know everything but then used wisdom to attend to such situations.
He met some guys in the bar. They exchanged pleasantries and began to drink together. After some moment of staying and chatting, one of them said “ah … I need to pour this money I have into crypto markets. I have studied this token and discovered that lately, it has always gone on the high side”.
“I don't love this crypto markets of a thing. In fact I only loved gaming”, Ben, the second guy said.
“It's as if you guys are losing out. Gaming and crypto market are my means of income. I can predict and surely would happen”, The first guy, Tunde and Ben the second guy opened their mouth as Erick was talking.
“I don't believe on those words. One of my cousins lost his money to crypto markets after listening to one guy that called himself a crypto guru”, Tunde replied.
“If you need one, I'm here to help you out”, Erick replied keenly and openly but still having the mind of bragging to what would always come out to be failure.
“I have not failed and would never fail anyone that listen to my prediction”, Tunde was not sure whether to put his money, but Ben was ever ready to pour his last blood into it.
“Now tell me which crypto would blow in the next one week”, Ben asked as he was not ready to lose his hard earning anyway.
“Lately, doge has been doing so well and would give you tangible amount of return if you pour all your money into it”, Erick said being so sure of himself.
Tunde on the other hand waited just to confirm his truth. Ben went ahead to put all his hard earning into buying Doge. He began to check the crypto markets daily just to see if his crypto had increased. After two days, his $10,000 has increased to $13,000. He was so excited and after a week, e realized $15,000.
“What a great increase!”, Ben said.
“Please, predict a game for me to put tangible amount of money”, Tunde demanded.
“Play Chelsea vs Manchester United a draw”, Erick said, but Tunde ignored and when the game finally played, it was a draw. “Ye, look at what I have missed. I will not make this mistake never again”, Tunde regretted.
“Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Now, should I still trade on the same Doge next week?” Ben asked.
“I fumbled in the last prediction you gave to me, not I need another one”, Tunde intruded.
“To Ben, don't worry, still trade on Doge, it's still going to go higher than before. You can pour in all your money into it and watch what would happen in the next one week. And to Tunde, just go ahead to play Chelsea vs Arsenal as draw”, Erick has now become a celeb and genius. Tunde decided to tell this game to his other friends while Ben decided to pour all his earnings into it. He even borrowed from his working place to buy USDT after which he converted it to Doge.
Tunde played the game with a lot of money and told his friends to put enough money as the game will keep off weekend. Meanwhile, Erick only did that just to boost his pride. Everyone in the community began to praise him and that week was his best week ever. So many guys were buying him drink just because of his pride and what he had given to them all.
As the week runs, Ben started noticing a drop in the crypto markets. He wanted to take his money out, but Erick assured him of leaving the money. “Don't worry, it will rise to your imagination comes tonight via Saturday which is the last day of the week”.
It was Saturday, and Tunde began to experience a sip in Doge. He cries out loud to Erick, but he was still assuring him of last-minute rise.
15:00, Chelsea started their match. First half was one goal to nil in favor of Arsenal. Tude was somehow doubting whether to pull off his money or to leave it. “This game is going to end in a draw as predicted. I have not failed and not even now”, he said assuring Tunde.
After 90 minutes, Arsenal was still taking the lead and Erick had to hide his face somewhere while Ben checked his crypto and saw $4,000 out of $21,000 used. His heart was shaking as he had promised to return the money he had borrowed that Saturday.
"I have stained my name and would be challenging to come out of this mess, not after making Tunde and Ben to lose heavily ", he began to blame himself for wrong prediction.
Tunde and Ben rushed to his house, and they jacked him and started asking for their money.
“Is this how my name would go down the drain?” He asked himself.
“Please, I'm deeply sorry, and would fix this no matter what?”
That is what chance, luck, is all about. There are people who have excellent predictions, but sometimes they fall. In my country there is a saying that even the best hunter misses the hare. Greetings
you are right and very correct
