nostr:npub1acxg0e5emvhju48aqu6ru0c8kczcy932jjseltjxl5t79q8rkl0qan9gne, Bruce Fenton and others have had their kids earn Bitcoin in the past from selling mugs or saving gifts in sats, or other entrepreneurial ventures.

My daughter has been doing that since she was 7.

Now she’s 13 and the bitcoin she’s earned from buying Dogecoin & selling it after Elon Musk pumped it, making a rare pepe and saving family gifts in BTC has appreciated a lot.

Like any kid, she was asking me constantly to buy iPad games for $2-3 each, and I told her she needed to earn some money to buy the iPad games.

As I was working for a crypto fund in 2017, she always saw me looking at crypto charts and she decided she wanted to make money buying coins.

She borrowed $20 from me to start, went leverage long on something she liked the logo of (antshares or something) and immediately got liquidated.

I told her she had to pay the debt off by deleting $20 worth of iPad games. She got upset & gave up on trading.

A week later she was back asking to buy an iPad game, and I told her she still had to earn it. She decided to try again, borrowed another $20 and this time went long dogecoin with only 2X leverage.

The value went up & she “cashed out” enough to buy a couple iPad games.

It was July 2017 and we were on a trip to Portugal. We both forgot about the trade for the rest of the trip.

We didn’t remember to check on the trade again until something like Dec 2017.

The position had gained significantly, and she cashed out ~half to BTC. She didn’t try trading shitcoins again.

She took ~$200 to the local animal shelter and bought food and toys and donated the rest of the cash.

She took ~$200 to the local women’s shelter and bought food & toys and donated cash.

She held on to half the DOGE until Elon pumped it in 2020, when that happened she sold the rest to BTC.

In 2021 she created a counterparty pepe and some nft degen bitcoiner friends helped her get it approved in the first series of Fake Rares.

She used some of her BTC savings to pay for the directory listing fees and counterparty fees to get it approved, and the buzz of a kid getting into the first series causes a bunch of the collectors to buy most of her Pepes pretty quickly.

Some people traded her their Pepe for hers, which she accepted and put for sale on the counterparty market for BTC.

In the end, she earned enough BTC from all of these endeavors to need a hardware wallet & start learning about securing her seed phrase and thinking about the future.

I’m looking for some resources on how to guide her to think about how to deal with having so much savings as a 13 year old, and how to navigate conversations with her friends about it.

Multiple times she’s had friends try to get out of her how much she made, how much she has, etc.

I’ve told her from the beginning, and multiple times a year not to let anyone know specifics, be diplomatic or just even say “I don’t know my dad does that.”

We also went through the whole Tutle Twins series when she was 9-10, she liked that but didn’t want to dig into any of the concepts any more.

I told her how sometimes wealth can be perceived as a negative thing by friends without savings, and she understands that.

She seems to be doing a really good job navigating it - but I’m looking for some resources to help her out.
