We talked about bitcoin today on the phone. She asked me if she gave me 30 dollars if I could invest it for her. I explained the volility of the coin that we could go from 100 to zero just like that. She still wants to put in 30.
That tells me while we may not be mainstream yet, we are getting there.
TO be honest, i would tell that just be hearing in the phone i would not directly invest. I would ask about more details and would try to view it and try it practically and also would see if that investment is really worthy enough or not. People's psychology should try to be more clear and must focus on the returns and goals otherwise it would land them into some trouble. 30 dollars is not some big money but yes just think what would be the results and your emotions if it was 300 thousand dollars. Money doesn't matters what matter's the most is value and quality of that investment scheme or product.
