I have a group of friends that watched me make a ton of money during the 2016-2017 crypto market and asked me to tell them the next time I believed was a good time to buy (surprise, it’s almost always a good time to buy) so whenever it became a bear market, I would shoot the group chat a message and let them know it’s a good time to buy. I would get mocking responses like “Oh yeah I bet it’s a good time to buy, it’s down 10%”. They would even message me the next day when it’s down 11% and say things like “ooh it’s even lower now, I guess today’s a good day to buy too”

    And then the bull market comes and my group chat is peppered with angry messages about how they missed the bull run and how I didn’t tell them it’s coming. Messages like “you gotta tell me the next time it’s good to buy!” I quickly learnt that there are just some things people can’t be taught, they have to learn it themselves.

    Moral of the story, don’t tell people you’re into crypto and don’t tell people you made gains, regardless of who they are, in the end it’s just a headache for you.

      Everyone wants your conviction on the way up and a scapegoat on the way down. That’s why money and silence make a great pair.

      tell them to give you any money they want you to invest for them otherwise do your own research

    3. This is a universal experience. Nobody listens and the only one of my buddies that did listen made 90k his first cycle.
