From the time I studied in class eight, I used to take money from my father, uncle, elder brothers on the occasion of religious festivals. After few years I kept saving money and with the saved money I started a quail and pigeon farm. After two years of service I got a fairly good benefit from them. One day I got to know about Bitcoin by meeting an elder brother while visiting a place. After learning about Bitcoin, my curiosity increased and gradually I tried to learn more about Bitcoin and became attracted to Bitcoin. A few months ago when the bitcoin market was 17 thousand USD I invested 80% of the dividend in the bitcoin market and I still hold it. When I do any work, I trust the right thinking and decision of my own morale towards that work. I think Bitcoin will be more valuable in the next few years and maybe it will reverse but I have confidence I hold it. When investing in something there is always risk involved. I think risk is the possibility of gaining or losing something valuable.
Just like you said there's risk everywhere. When you wanted to start your poultry farm, you must have acknowledged that birds are fragile; and infection/diseases can spread from one to all of them resulting in a large treatment expense or even huge casualties, but you did it anyway yet with money from your savings. Tell a lot about your business personality. Bitcoin has its volatility and that's its only risk, however, just like any other risk, there's always a huge reward waiting on the positive end of your decision. Just hoard it long enough and you won't have any regrets. Nonetheless please make sure you never throw in all your funds there (no matter how green it seems); you need to have emergency funds that can forever prevent you from needing what you invest. This is one common mistake people make and I'm hoping you don't make it too.
