    My friend tried to convince me to get into bitcoin early and I didn’t bother, I thought it was just a fad, like my mom “investing” in Beanie Babies.

    He spent all his on drugs before the price took off though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      The problem with statements like “If you invested in Bitcoin back in 2009 you’d be rich now” is that you’d have to be clairvoyant to actually know that back then. And if you’re clairvoyant, the lottery offers a better return on investment than bitcoin.
