Thanks for the story. The average person is so stupid. They have such a big ego too. Like how can you have that ego if you are that dumb.
They will remain slaves until death.
I have so many stories of people failing to do their home works on Bitcoin.
Though I counted 13 friends/ acquaintance that went BIG on Bitcoin in the last 4 years.
I'm so excited to see them get rich AF in the coming months. It's glorious.
I have one childhood friend that went from 0 btc in 2021 and now has a little over 7 btc. I was actually shocked by it. He is blue collar/owns his own business and actually respected my authority. I have one other childhood friend that is white collar and he’s from class of 2017 and barely has 1 btc. Everyone else I’ve ever shilled btc to either capitulated or never bought and mocked me.
Blue collar people don’t have an ego issue with bitcoin. The college “educated” think they are too good or smart for it. Like if bitcoin is beneath them or something
They are also used to proof of work and dealing with real risk. Physics. Also the gen x guy was a big anti vaxer we bonded over that lol it’s sad he should have been able to get it
Is he a gold bug? Only thing I can think off since he seems pretty based otherwise
I don’t think so . Real estate guy from Cali . Yeah overall he’s a good guy just has bds. Also the alcoholic millennial called out the gen x guy for buying followers on his YouTube channel lol. He has like 500k followers and gets 10 likes a video . I was like I didn’t notice but yeah makes sense lol . The old guys don’t realize the youth can call out bs easy lol
From my experience, the high achieving educated white collar people think they are too smart for Bitcoin, because they fall prey to the idea of economy management. They know they are more educated and have a higher IQ than the average, and believe people like them can manage money better than the free market on its own.
It's literally the bell curve meme.
Yup the elite yuppies
It really depends on how one defines "high achieving". Is it an accomplishment to gain riches and stuff by screwing over other hard working people. "Economy Management" ha. More like musical chairs ponzie scheme management. Makes me think of charles schab 'investing' everyones money for them. It is like they are saying to the masses... Nevermind how much we make, be happy that you have not lost everything, yet.
I think of millions of hard working people, working all their lives to "earn wages, only to put them in a bag with holes.” - Haggai 1:6
Bitcoin represents an honest ledger that can't be gamed. That's why the blue collars have been mentored by their betters to believe its bad.
Absolutely. I use "high achieving" with a tongue in cheek.
That's insane. When Bitcoin hits 300K he will likely be good for life. wow. Good for him.
Out of the 13, they are all blue collar or business owners.
And yes they did give me higher intellectual ground (through my reasoning) . Their humility gave them eternal riches
Yeah he did the opposite of the ops and bought heavier as it was crashing, can’t really teach that. I gave him mad props. My white collar friend actually took my advice on his career too lol I was the first one in the friend group to graduate college and get a real job so he trusted me. That doesn’t surprise me that your friends that bought were all blue collar/biz owners, that seems to be the theme. They will love you forever now. It does feel good to have friends come along for the ride
Getting rich alone is boring. That's why I created a group to discuss bitcoin. That's how the 13 got in. The group has 40 people. 27 tourist. Still a good ratio though.
One of them went balls deep in November 2021 but kept the DCA till now.
He recently gave me gratitude for the support over the years.
It's cool.
