Both you and I seem to appreciate the fact that actual people in the real world are fucking crazy, AlcoHoDL - even though if we want to get by in the world and have actual friends and acquaintances, we have to go along with their ways of doing things "on their own terms," and wanting to get credit for whatever they ended up doing.

I am NOT really going to complain too much to these kinds of people, and you and I have probably had some similar experiences in terms of having some preferences NOT to overly impose our own values on peeps because we do not want them to be coming and whining to us about our having had caused them to do x, y or z against their will blah blah blah.. so likely you and I share some of the sentiments about reinforcing with peeps that they are responsible for their own decisions of whether to invest, how much to invest and how to invest, even if, at the same time, we are both leading by example and telling those fucktwats (while using kinder words) that they are responsible for their lil selfies.

hahahahaha

I am not even sure if I should repeat myself into going into a story that I have told before because many of us know with the passage of time more stories (or at least more context) comes from just the price increases, price decreases and the ways that peeps in the real world attempt to deal with those matters from their own individual perspective - and of course, even if it sometimes might seem to us that they are crazy as fuck in a variety of ways, we also have to give them various breaks in terms of being the ones in positions to understand their own perspectives while at the same time appreciate that the balancing of the various individual factors can take pretty damned BIG turns merely on changing a couple of the factors. and so it takes quite a bit of coincidence and maybe even educations in various ways for people to get in the same chapter even if not quite on the same page.

If I can remember what I was going to say, I can tell the story of the person who started with 21 coins.. if peeps are interested, but the thing is that sometimes it can take a while to tell a story and even the way that the story is told can change in terms of what point that is being attempted to be made.

By the way AlcoHoDL, is this diptwat cousin of yours starting out with zero coins, which seems to be the case.... I can surely excuse someone who already has some coins to take a bit more of an aggressive stance or have a more greedy stance in terms of buying more coins.. but I was getting the sense that your  cousin is a nocoiner until the BTC price crosses below $34,100.   Surely better than nothing, but still...
