Correct. I couldn't have gotten into Bitcoins, where it not for somebody who got out at $10. But then maybe he started mining when it was easy or got in when they were selling kBTC at $2.50
All the same. I'm kicking myself in the butt now for stopping mining too early last year when I was getting 200 coins/day. I thought back then (and still do) that Bitcoin has no future and that the bubble will pop sooner or later because the system has a built-in perpetual deflation. That doesn't mean pyramid schemes can't be useful if you jump out before they burst 
. My wrong decision made somebody else rich now. It's all the same.
