The thing is, once you’re at that point, you find yourself wanting to share this excitement or knowledge with those closest to you, not to inflate the value of your holdings (unless you’re a cousin of an Arab sheikh, they’re not going to move the price), but because you truly believe in its transformative power for their financial future (they will remember you in the midst of a bull market, but it won’t be the right time either). I have to say, that I manage my own funds, and I do not want anyone's parents to feel obliged to buy bitcoin. I have summarize in this post, the main points I would address to try to teach some friend or relative bitcoin.

I want to avoid in any case, that sensation of being a boring crypto bro evangelist, you can’t force anyone to move their money in one way or another, the goal is to transmit some of the knowledge , in a synthetic way, so that ideas start to take shape, and at least the people who read this start asking themselves questions, or at least question how the current system works.

I am in Bitcoins since 2016 but I was a kid and no one was taking me seriously. I was in video editing, was making some after effects intros and videos. I had to fake my age because no one was taking me seriously with my true age. When I was faking age, I was getting jobs online from various companies, so I was earning some money even in my childhood but at the same time I also discovered Bitcoin, registered on this forum, read a lot about it and I understood the potential of this coin. Most importantly, I understood why this coin was going to rise and was suggesting my family members to buy Bitcoin with their savings but instead of following my advice, they laughed at me and suggested me to forget Bitcoin and save money in USD. What could I do? They were my parents and I was forced to give them my money to hold USD but soon I joined signature campaigns and started earning real Bitcoins without my parents knowing about this additional income of mine. Over time, my Bitcoin savings went 10x up in 2017 and now you see where the price is soaring.
Today I amn't going to suggest anyone any investment. When I suggested it, everyone was laughing. We would be millionaires if my parents followed my advice but they refused it even in 2019 and later. I don't care about other's investments anymore and I suggest you to do the same. In the end, no one will be your grateful and in exchange you'll mostly experience mockery.
