You could trade BTC as a local dealer in your spare time. You would need to figure out how to make a bank transfer to an exchange. Once you are set up to do this however, you can make a commission by selling to people. Sounds like your country could do with some local traders.

You could keep the profits in BTC, then you don't have to invest anything. You can build up a small amount of coins and hold onto them long term.

With regards to 'not seeing the point' at this stage:

I told many friends to buy BTC at $10 but they couldn't see the point.
I told them again at $100, but like you, they just couldn't see it going any higher.

If they had bought $100 worth of BTC at $10, it would now be worth nearly $10 000
