I do not care about people in my life. People are made to make rumors, they like to talk so let them talk and especially don't let them interfere in your life decision. Never ever listen to other people's when you are making crucial decisions. For example, when I join Bitcoin community I have recommended a lot of people to join Bitcoin community and I never I said anyone to invest I just said them to be in this community and they call me crazy. And now after like 5-6 years, they want to join the network.
Never ever listen to people? What about families, friends, wife or husbands? What about one's wise kids? It's best to hear their words first (hear not heed) and then you can decide on your own & how you want to)
