    1. Because you never studied it. Put 100 hours in understanding bitcoin and you regret even more why you haven't done that earlier. If you understand it, you WILL buy it as soon as you can…

    2. For the Newbie if you are actually trading in the crypto space and you don't have a sound mentor. Then you are certainly going to get liquidated in 90% of your trades. Yeah that's sad truth. I remember when i just got into crypto back in 2019 but later in 2020 i ended up selling it because i have lost alot trading all by myself without a guide. Got back into crypto early in 2023 with $190k and I'm up with $732k in a short period of time. Thanks to Sheila kinder.

    3. When someone like Philippe Laffont says he regrets not owning Bitcoin take note. This guy’s in AI, big tech, and hedge funds. If he’s leaning into BTC, that’s a clear signal we’re in a new cycle.

    4. I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach in your name for the whole world to hear that you saved me from a huge financial debt with just a small trading, thank you Eleanor Johnston

    5. GIVING TO THE CHINESE BITCOIN NETWORK IS TREASON…..CHINA CREATED BITCOIN TO SPREAD COMMUNISM AND A LOT OF REALLY STUPID PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTING CHINA BITCOIN AND COMMUNISM……IF YOU HOLD BITCOIN YOU ARE A COMMUNIST AND YOU ARE GUILTY OF TREASON…..😮STOP BEGGING PEOPLE TO SUPPORT CHINA AND CHINAS BITCOIN NETWORK YOU TRAITORS THAT CHEERLEAD FOR CHINAS BITCOIN SCAM

    6. Roughly $120K in my portfolio are in tech/TSLA stocks, can I get an advice on any other stocks that I can acquire to diversify my reserve across multiple markets while creating a comprehensive portfolio allocation that balances my concerns of risk aversion and returns that meet yearly inflation.

    7. Absolutely agree! Abigail Messore Johnson is a legend in trading. Made profit of $90K few days ago, then lost $5K, then made $20K again, trading is a rollercoaster! Most pros keep their secrets close, but their willingness to share and stay connected really makes the difference. Mentors like Miss Abigail truly accelerate growth. This kind of honest, open communication is what builds real trust and community…

    8. I feel investors should focus on under-the-radar stocks, considering the current rise of the stock market since trump was pronounced winner of the united state election. 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises plummeting stocks that were once revered. I don't know where to go here out of devastation.

    9. Amazing how shamelessly investor focussed this is, " no its all good because tx to AI, the number of employees is gonna go down"🥳
