the majority of you here on biz are young probably between 18-25 and dont have money. no your 100k in LINK is not alot of money. trying to turn your measly 20k or even 1k into a fortune by degening it into some shitcoin or penny stock is near impossible. your're most likely wasting precious time on shit that is negligible in the long run. I've seen so many friends,colleagues that have spent countless hours trading futures/forex/crypto and still make no money.

You need to focus on real skills and getting a high paying job before thinking about investing. theres a big difference trading with a 1k account and being able to trade with an 100k account. so stop fucking wasting time every day on shitcoins when you could be learning how to program.

Xoomer here who fell for the college and university education meme. Too old now to get a grip on that shit, but I second that post. Learn some useful skills when you are still young and your brains are working, wagecuck in a good job for some years, so you get good money that you can invest, and you can go all in on a good project with 100k instead of lunch money.

Investing/trading is a lifestyle. It means taking the challenge of making money. From where you start isn't the point, the point is that this is how we make money.

Another thing is that 100k link is $1 million. That's not a lot? Idk chief, kinda is. And keep in mind business is about business, not wagecucking. When you step into the entrepreneur world, you think and live like an investor. Working for a firm or two, 3 or 5 years is natural, but don't go thinking that's all there is to it, and you can't invest with having a couple of million dollars in your bank.

You missed the point OP. Those friends of yours either are extremely unlucky, or they're not sharing the information with you. I personally learnt my lesson of never sharing my financial situation, gains/losses, what I'm doing etc.

Since corona started, I told my friends about crypto and all that. Tried to teach them to trade. All it does is fuck you over. When you lose they'll laugh at you and your "monopoly money" When you get money they'll accumulate some deep hatred for even making a dollar or two. I ended up telling them I lost all my money in that crash and I put in 300$, but it's 50$ now and I honestly pulled out etc..

Friends and money do not fit. So that's maybe why your friends just don't tell you, and keeping you out.

Either way, money is money, what a dollar is valued is different from person A to person B. You do you, and don't risk anything you can't lose. Nonetheless your way of thinking isn't wrong, but a bit outdated.

A lot of people on biz did actually invest in link when it was near .17 cents. Then there's people like me, I was late, so only have 8k but still accumulating because I make 120k a year, live a modest lifestyle, and there is no better investment opportunity available right now. Your advice is only good for people who want to do nothing but neet and wait for moon, which are admittedly a few, but I wouldn't steer motivated and intelligent individuals away from crypto (just don't go chasing shitcoins/pumps because that will always end poorly).

I worked on sick chemistry skillz before investing and lost my job. Not gonna get into the why's but I was out of work for a year and exited the industry for finance.

I'm working my way up from scratch again in a new field following a different career path. Following your advice I would have nothing. But after spending my savings while unemployed, and losing a chunk of it in the 2017 crypto bust, The asset side of my balance sheet increased from $1-3k up to $60k in the span of 2 years.

Fuck your advice. I agree that wealth generating skills is necessary in this system we live in, but you need to start investing today so you can learn to manage your money tomorrow. You can get sick programming skillz and invest at the same time.

If you're a retard, sure, focus on your career and stick to safe investments; most people need to do that. But you need to learn to game this system if you're going to beat it.

I think of it like gaming. In Dark Souls you get thrown into an extremely hostile environment with no tutorial, no instruction, trial by fire. But if you play the game, study it, learn the game mechanics, figure out how to game that system; you stop getting your ass kicked and you start to win.

This is worth devoting time to because if you don't learn to manage your money, you will inevitably lose it, even if all your own is bonds.

Imagine telling people that the only way to succeed is to play the "get lucky or go broke" job market where you only succeed if you get lucky enough to meet the right person at the right time.

Then going so far as to say that investing in crypto/stocks is a bad idea because of its risk and uncertainty.

As if wagecucking and trying to develop skills is some sort of guaranteed path to success with no "luck" factor involved at all. How 'old' are you? 70? Get with reality.
