I hate myself so much for not saving it when I was buying it at $150 when it was new. I just thought it was a cool and niche privacy currency that you could buy drugs with, not something normies would go crazy over…
Friend of mine found his old bitcoin wallet that he used to buy drugs online in the 2010s and still had some in it. He’s now buying a house with it lmao
I had a friend who told me to buy Bitcoin when it cost cents. I didn’t, because at the time it required you to send your ID to an unknown entity.
The same friend had previously recommended that I learn Hadoop. I didn’t because I didn’t have the proper setup to host it and when was it going to be relevant to my job? Incidentally my current job relies - and my previous job relied - heavily on HDFS.
I’m extremely sleep deprived and can’t remember the third thing, but there was a third thing that would have been extremely lucrative if I had followed his advice.
Once I recognized the trend I asked him for the next suggestion. He said I should start my own business. I didn’t because I don’t have any ideas.
I was going to set up my shit PC to GPU mine in like 2012 or 13 or whenever it was when it was a novelty but I was like “nah, I can’t justify purchasing a video card just for that” (my shit PC had onboard video)
I’d be living in a fucking mansion right now, because the world went nuts. Man, the only time I decide to be responsible…
Ah dude I completely feel your pain. I could have had a nice house and a nice life and now I’m stuck in a crappy home that is falling apart :(
I liked the idea of a privacy focused currency, but at the time it wasn’t accepted at any stores or really anywhere practical, so I didn’t feel the need to hold onto it. It was very much considered a novelty.

Maybe I should start a business.
That sounds like a good business plan, but I’m not sure I could convince Ryan Reynolds (or Guy) to work with me.
Nah nah nah, you can’t ASK for advice in this trend, it has to be given freely.
Given the nature of his proclivities, I wouldn’t be surprised if he showed up here unprompted and dropped the next nugget of financial wisdom.
