About a month ago I discovered Darkcoin. I bought in over .02 after reading about what it was trying to do. I invested far more than I should have as I was certain it would keep going up.
I am in absolute despair right now, I still haven't told my wife how much I lost. Honestly, I'm terrified of the thought. It was money we could have used as a down payment on a house, or to send the kids to college. Money that pretty much would have been useful somewhere else.
We live in an apartment and have been saving for a house for years.
I'm sick to my stomach now. I can't sleep at night because my mind races through series of 'what-ifs.' I honestly don't know what to do. How do I tell my wife the money is gone?
I'm thinking about leaving everything behind and going off to some other country as that is how heavy the burden feels right now. I know my kids would miss me but I can't stand the thought of them knowing how much of a failure I am.
It's hard to read about all these people talking about all their profits and how much they made. I hope they realize for everything they've gained is off the back of someone like me who saw something they thought was a worthwhile investment and got burned.
First of all if your living in an apartment you shouldn't be having 5 kids, Its apparent you've been making bad decisions for some time now. Secondly welcome to capitalism, every winner in this game is standing on the backs of a thousand losers. I have zero remorse for you . . Hold your coins and next month your life will be a green candle stick

Never invest money that you can't afford to lose, you made a very bad decision by using money that you need in real life to invest in crypto.
Crypto is high risk, ''reading'' about a certain coin is not enough, you should do some proper research as well.
Buying coins at a certain level when it already has risen quite a bit is your second mistake.
For the next time you should think before you buy crypto, not buy crypto and do the thinking after.
Let this be a lesson for you, hope you'll not make the same mistake.
