For myself, I don't usually encourage or force anyone to invest in Cryptos.
I prefer to teach and advise people and they make their decisions on their own .
Yes you didn't need to force someone to invest if they didn't really underdtand what and how to earn bitcoin and they didn't want to take a risk because joining, trading or investing in bitcoin was a one of the risky decision theirs is no assurance if you earn or not.
Just like my friend he did to me advising and teaching me on what is the proper posting and for the does and doesn't need in forum, exploration was the best thing to achieve your goal your own exploration.
