My dad is the same way. I’m not yet “successful” by his measure (nor my own) … he has been sure to let me know his feelings on my decision to go all-in as a bitcoin maxi.
He has also tried to wrest control of my outcome by stating, “As I’ve said all along, you’re either going to get very rich or be very poor.”
He actively chastised me at $16k, told me to sell everything because it was going to zero. I didn’t. I stacked harder.
Fathers and their impact on their kids. Profound in one way or the other.
