I used to force people to buy bitcoins just like you said, I realized over time that this was unnecessary and that they were the only ones who lost.
I enjoy telling people about bitcoins in general, its structure and technology, that's a separate issue, but I leave it to them to buy, everyone is responsible for their own investment.
We will be responsible if something goes wrong, so it's best to forget about it. After all, I'm not an advisor, so I don't have any responsibility to give people financial information.
Is not good for us to force people to invest in Bitcoin because they will fail in it, what we are suppose to do is to educate people about Bitcoin and how Bitcoin works then allow them to make decision to choose to invest or not, some set of people who where into bitcoin investment and later stopped investing is because they where forced into Bitcoin investment and some people where also given false information and that was why they joined Bitcoin investment I know of someone who thought Bitcoin would give him profit in less than 2 weeks of his investment and this was because he was given false information some newbies really don't understand how Bitcoin investment works some set of people thinks that Bitcoin investment is like Ponzi scheme where you can just investment and get huge amount of profit in a week later, and this false informations given to people has really given Bitcoin bad image, the best thing to do is to give people the right information about Bitcoin and also tell them to do some research by there self and let them go through the history of Bitcoin growth if they decide to invest after everything then they will be determine to succeed.
