I have a friend who I forced to accept $20 in bitcoin 9 years ago. Today it’s $5,000 He never bought more, but he has held it for almost a decade. I can’t decide if I’m proud of him or annoyed by him lol 😂 image

I offered my barber to accept bitcoin in the last 2 years. He said he did not want it, going to make him regret his decisions next week by showing him what he left on the table.
I'm more proud than annoyed. He stayed humble and didn't get greedy, but didn't learn anything about why Bitcoin did what it did in all these years. Wait, I'm starting to get more annoyed than proud.
I made my friend who ran our fantasy football league back in the day to accept my $100 entry fee in Bitcoin when Btc was around $400. He has held it since now worth $15,000 he also did not buy anymore........ Annoyed he didnt but also proud because back in the day all my friends laughed me off he actually accepted it and has secured it fine all these years. Decent reward for him.

Wow, that's impressive... But I can't help you with your dilemma, veri difficult question 😅
My best bud still has the 0.25 BTC I gave him for xmas '2013. He never bought more. Now he just mumbles 'guess I'll have fun staying poor'. The crazy thing is, he's a really talented and well paid engineer, and I'm sure that in some parallel universe, he's a multi-billionaire.
