for me Bitcoin allows me to hold some saving out of the banking system and the hands of the government.
pretty much everything and the same has you, being able to be my own bank, look for opportunities to generate bitcoin, offer some of my skills to gain bitcoin, trading, buying and selling, business opportunities which is pretty much big right now, one thing i do hate is not being able to mine in the beginning
There are pitfalls to being your own bank.
Ultimately you have to cash it out, as it stand right now. And if you do a large cashout to your bank account, the government'x tax agency will be on you like a hawk for not having declared the money.
Think Al Capone.
is that you can make allot of money by doing it well.
Bitcoin is allowing to earn money in different ways and if you cannot grab those opportunities then its a very foolish move to make and people who don't have money to buy them will always prefer to earn them.
