Don't be too hard on him... to accept the ideas embodied by #bitcoin, one must overcome some powerful cognitive biases:
Confirmation Bias
Authority Bias
Status Quo Bias
Loss Aversion Bias
Anchoring Bias
Stereotyping Bias
Groupthink Bias
Hindsight Bias
Egocentric Bias
Projection Bias
I know it makes me feel crazy inside because he is a very intelligent human being. He just can’t grasp it and I don’t know how to get the point across
You'll get thru to him eventually, don't give up...
And just think, whenever he does get it, he'll still be early!
I even told him like three years ago go ahead buy yourself 500 bucks worth of bitcoin if you are unhappy in a year I will buy it from you and give you your 500 bucks back. I thought if he had skin in the game maybe it would help.
That usually does help...did he buy?
