wow, that is so unfortunate of him, He was amazingly lucky to get to know about BTC at the time he got to knew it, when it's very low. and so unfortunate that had to let go of everything that potentially made him a millionaire.

May be it's karma. everyone has to wait till their time and he does not have that yet. Hope he's hard working again to get back at his loss. The best thing to do in a situation like this is not give up, be more motivated and use your maximum effort until you are THERE.
