There are a lot of folks who continue to be skeptical and scared of bitcoin, which will likely be their loss, and there might not be any real easy way to either convince them and/or to get them to take action to protect their own finances, psychology and likely improve their future options.  Even people who we might try to help, they may start out buying bitcoin, but then screw it up and even put themselves into a worse position because they fail to adequately prepare themselves and to learn about bitcoin and/or to moderate their entrance into bitcoin.

Exactly, as it is very difficult to convince skeptics with regards to Bitcoin. And from what I've learned, Bitcoin doesn't just want us to be technically inclined, as there are words like Blockchain, Bitcoin address, confirmation time, blocks and other technical jargon that might really scared a lot of investors. So Bitcoin doesn't just ask us to learn it's technology, but it teaches us to globally shift our mindset. And so it requires overcoming what has been the norm or status quo for many years. Human by nature resists change, so everyone has been teach to remain in the status quo, even if the current fiat system is flawed. And then the mindset conditioning, we are bias and conditioned to trust  central authorities, central banks and government. And with Bitcoin's decentralization model, it feels risky for the majority. So perhaps the best approach is to stop trying to convince them, but start trying to inform. Our goal should not to get them to buy, but to understand. So by that shift, maybe just maybe we can protect the people we are trying to help from themselves. And with that, patience and wisdom is the key here and that is the only way we can move forward. Just be calm when we are trying to help others, and again, maybe that will be good enough for those who are going to invest in a safe manner.
I don't think it will be necessary trying to convince anyone to invest in bitcoin because I believe bitcoin has passed this stage, especially those that are sceptical about bitcoin . Bitcoin has proven to be among the best assets, if not one of the most sought assets. Therefore I believe it is only the blind that needs someone to convince them before they will see the potentials of bitcoin and decide to start buying. Who ever that is still skeptical about the potentials of bitcoin at this stage that bitcoin has gotten to doesn't need any form of convincing, they will continue as a no coiner and before they will realise there mistake of not buying bitcoin, it would have been late.

It is never right to force someone to invest or advise them to invest. Whether the price of Bitcoin is $1,000 or $200,000, it is still not right to force someone to invest. Because Bitcoin is a very volatile currency. You can never tell when what will happen in the Bitcoin market. The market can go up and down at any time. If the market falls and that person panics and sells his holdings, he will blame you. So it is never right to force someone to invest.

If a person is willing to invest, you can analyze the basic knowledge related to Bitcoin with them and give them some space, why Bitcoin is best for investment and why Bitcoin is better than all others. You can tell them all these things, after that if he is willing to invest, he can invest.
