I completely agree with you here, because in my beginnings some ten years ago I had a completely different philosophy and I told people that it would be wise to invest a few hundred $ in Bitcoin (and the price of 1 BTC was only a few hundred $), but no one didn't take it too seriously. In the last 5-6 years, things have changed, not only because most people say that BTC is too expensive for them, but also because it is not wise to expose yourself in any connection with Bitcoin in public.

In addition, older people (mostly) are not interested in new technologies, and I personally let them enjoy their old days, because realistically, they have earned it by working continuously for 40 years.
