>Asking what gives Bitcoin value is like asking what gives Facebook its value. It's valuable by the mere fact that people use it. And it only increases in value as long as people join
The difference is that Facebook is a social media website. There is many social media sites that have came and went. Bitcoin is a currency....that isn't even used as a currency.

I'm sorry, no one trusts Bitcoin. No one trusts the exchanges. There are fees everywhere. If you want your transaction to go anywhere anytime soon it's $50 worth of Bitcoin. Everyone is trying to get rich quick. None of that is quality of success.

With what money? And hindsight is also always 20/20. Being super greedy is what cost them their "money." The same will be said of everyone left holding the bags soon.

h, /biz/,

Tell me about your IRA and how you came to selecting the fund that you did.

I just opened through Oakmark International (OAKIX) after advice from paternal units...I think it seems low volatility and I like the focus on mainly Danish and Japanese mid-cap corps, and I only needed to shove in $500 initial (poorfag /g/ codemonkey status)

stocks are just playing poker but on a more larger scale.

the companies are the hands and the stocks themselves are the bets.

discuss.

Dunno if this is commonly talked about,

I kinda don't know how a credit card works

I see credit cards as a nuisance, and if they're in uncontrolled hands they can cause a real problem with debt and etc.

but in controlled hands, the way i see it is that if you pay it forward and etc and be ontop of everything then you get good "credit rating" and bonuses.

am icorrect in assuming credit-rating is a good thing ( able to take higher loans and etc) and the rewards are worth it?

I kinda have conflicting views on it, because I think "wow credit-rating would be great" but at the same time I don't want to be a person who takes loans out for anything ( hecs is exception ) - I intend to save up as much money as I can to buy a house outright, etc.

why would anyone actually want a credit card/credit-rating/rewards system? is it really worth the risks?
