Guys/Gals it’s posted in the meme community, clearly this did not happen. The joke is funnier in the first person.
Fake texts and a confirmation bias. One hell of a combo for people in the comments.
I could shame OP for falling for the crypto hype but I think the more important lesson here is to never ever mix family and finances.
Even if you know for 100% fact that you have a slam dunk investment, it’s not worth it. Money corrupts.
Never loan money, even if you don’t expect it to get paid back. It creates a power imbalance. Envy and resentment for you having money is better than creating any financial ties.
Never go into business with family.
Don’t mix finances and family. Family is more important than money.
XMR is the only crypto worth shit.
Damn and here I am trying to keep my family away from crypto
lowkey with all the volatility in the US dollar and stuff, I’d at least consider learning the mechanics behind the scenes for it
Whoever thinks suggesting crypto to family members is a good idea deserves the hate.
Nah I don’t suggest anyone ever invest in crypto but simply to observe in the apps and be open minded, e.g. if you invest 10 dollars and watch the scene for some time you can see where things are going and have a long view rather than their 1000s in a big gamble. I doubt anyone I know is that dumb anyway
you don’t sound too bright
Unless they hate their family and want to see them come crashing down in a ball of fire and misery, finally getting what they deserve for decades of pain they themselves created
…why are you looking at me like that
I would never, ever suggest anyone get into crypto. It’s far too volatile for any type of reasonable investment scheme.
The only reason I even have crypto is so I can donate to the private torrent sites I am on.
Crypto isn’t outright evil, but you really should only use it if you have things to use it for, and aren’t trying to game the system to get rich quick.
Honestly, anyone playing such “get rich quick” investing games with crypto needs to be honest with themselves that maybe they’ve got a gambling problem.
Yeah, literally just alternative currency at this point for me too.
That was always the point of it.
