That's so true Mike, many times getting some mini trauma is enough to wake you from your stupor and change and adjust path, but have seen many now still ride it til the bitter end rather than change. I guess there is comfort in things staying the same and the pain of changing your beliefs and admitting you were wrong is not always forcing change depending where your ego is.

I think this is true for many, but also many others relish change. I presume most Bitcoiners fall into the seeking change category and the HFSP's will be dragged along at some point because the pain of not doing so is worse.
I've had a smart phone since 2003, my wife knew I was a nerd, so just assumed it was me being nerdy. She resisted getting a smart phone until I bought her one around 2010.
I now have trouble convincing her to look up and appreciate the real world.
I still remember when the mainstream didn't use internet on their phones, it was just us trailblazers and before that I remember showing my Dad YouTube when it first came out... He asked how do you use it? LOL š type in a song you like and hit enter...
