Just thought I'd tell you this one. I'm sure you all have similar stories.
A friend of mine back in 2013 laughed and joked about Bitcoin and I was laughed too for buying it and preaching to everyone that this will be big. This friend then joined forces with other friends and we all went snowboarding in Feb 2014 and once again Bitcoin was mentioned (not by me this time) and once again it was all a big joke.
This friend asked me around 6 weeks ago how to buy bitcoin so I sent him all the information he needed but without the preaching. In my mind preaching about bitcoin is a bit 2013 for me and not something I do anymore, in fact I try not to talk about it at all. This friend said he has money saved up and was going to buy some btc (at least 1 coin, maybe more).
My reply was that's great news, someone I can chat btc with and I wished him luck.
Today he send me messages saying he didn't buy and now wants to buy some.
Do I bother to help? I feel like he is wasting my time. He's asking me when is the right time to buy and what would be a good dip to buy?
Personally I think he likes the idea of owning btc but doesn't have the balls to push the buy button.
Another issue is I don't think he has done any research of his own at all.
Who else has a similar story?
Im glad that he just asked you for advice, not giving you his money to invest for him bcoz its gonna lead you to a not really good situation. I like my friends and wiling to help them, but with the money they should take their own decisions and responsibility. He has no balls, no trust, no experience then he should stay away which is the best for him. Sometimes in this forum I saw people posting here and there how can they persuade family or friends invest in btc or how to spread the knowledge of btc or sth...and I wonder why they have to do that. i nver do that. Having a nice conversation, laughing and chitchatting is good enough, I dont waste my time convince anybody what to do with their money.
