Hello Folks,

I was listening to a Bitcoin podcast the other day and the speaker mentioned that one person had written to him asking for advice - his wife had heard about Bitcoin in the mainstream media and the price rise and was pressuring him to cash it all out immediately or she would leave him.

I don't know how that particular fellow ended up but it got me thinking - for those of us with partners who are not into Bitcoin, have you ever had pressure put on you to sell it up and are they even aware of how much BTC you are actually holding?

There is a bigger picture here as well, with some people holding hundreds or thousands of BTC and the price continuing to go up - how might the court system view Bitcoin in the context of divorce and separation?

It certainly raises an interesting point.

Thoughts?
LOL What the hell if this happened to me I think it would be better off without her.
It is your investment it is for both of your future so why would she even pressure you and make the decision when she doesn't even understand it?
If you're in that kind of relationship it is better to leave seems like your partner isn't really supporting you to have a better future but instead just making it harder for you.
Chose someone that would support you and believe in you not someone who would just pressure you.
