The idea of proposing an investment in Bitcoin is good, but usually the audience will first look at the person who conveys it. Because of course there must be evidence to be able to provide additional evidence that your background is indeed promising. Investors with a high level of understanding will have many demanding criteria, especially financial matters, where the audience will look at the presentation material and see the facts of your daily life. Because it would be very pointless to submit such and such submissions regarding Bitcoin if you don't have anything to be proud of. This is not about bragging, but in marketing techniques, if the background is ordinary but what is conveyed seems promising, then the audience will ask what can you prove from investing in Bitcoin? if it's true it's profitable.
By background, I think you mean something like educational background? But, they say it's fine to not have that but a good skill alone can still work decently. By skills, I think this includes faking our background, only to present something to those who are ultra-strict investors. Despite of their attitude, it's funny that at the end, they will still got fooled by those who are highly skilled people, haha.
I do not blame them because, no doubt that money is truly hard to find, so they are only making sure that what they are spending is also worth it. I also don't blame the marketers because it's only their hustle to make money and have something to eat, and live their life.
