Title: The most honest post you will find here Post by: yokosan on March 21, 2013, 08:07:15 PM I'm retiring from speculation. It was fun, but in the end you always lose on the short-game.
That said I am officially joining the "long-haul club". I decided I would turn 99% of my coins to cash now and enjoy the profits. The remaining 1% have been ordered as physical coins which I will store until I can either buy a house with them or they become worthless. I love Bitcoin, but at the end of the day speculation is too close to gambling for comfort.

I think there are other candidates for 'most honest post' though: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=155054.0 Title: Re: The most honest post you will find here Post by: KTE on March 21, 2013, 08:33:06 PM That's not the long-haul club, that's cashing out and leaving a nominal amount to bitcoin just so you can say you're still invested.

Indeed. No guts, no glory. |
