This was the mean reason why I don't like telling people about bitcoin investment, except they seek for advice from me, first I will tell you the risk that is involve if you can bare the risk alone, but if you can't bare the risk then I will advice you let go of it. However if you want to be successful in life you need to take risk, most of the wealthy people you see today they have stories to tell about how they started there journey and also the risk they took. what I'm saying in essence is that you have to face your risk alone the only thing you should think about is how you can deal with it, that's if you really want your future to be a better one.
I feel you on that. I only talk crypto if someone's actually interested in learning, not just trying to make a quick buck. But here's my take I share: Risk comes with any investment, but that don't mean you gotta gamble. If you put in the time studying how Bitcoin works, get to know the market moves and have a plan going in, you can handle the risks way better.
Taking calculated risks - thats how peeps get ahead in Bitcoin or anything else. It ain't about jumping in blind and it's taking the time to learn all you can first and being ready for whatever comes.
