Post by: Elwar on April 02, 2013, 01:23:00 AM
Just curious.

I come into work some days thinking, holy crap...I made more money last night than I will make all day at work.

Wow...with the amount of people making more with the climb in Bitcoin price, I am wondering if people are thinking the same thing as me...

drop this 12 to 12 job and start a Bitcoin business

I am on the same boat, except 9-6 at a shitty agency.

My revelation hit me the first time the price jumped $10 in a day

I made more from work, but barely.

I'm hoping to turn that around this month.

True, if I factor in the amount lost by selling so much last year I am actually in the negative.

 :P

I can only think of one other business where you can make as much money from the comfort of your bed as you can with Bitcoins!

Many people here made more yesterday than they would have made in an entire year working at their job (or former job).

we need to sell them to get the profit so i'm not sure we actually made any money.
The hardest is to come :
when to sell?

No, you don't need to. You can make loans(if you are risk-aversive), or go long on leverage(if you are risk-seeking).

Sell? 2 years maybe, some.

In a year if things go VERY well I might liquidate enough for a holiday. So 1 BTC maybe ;)

I definitely am. Not trading but there's going to be some big opportunities coming up. I have missed out on at least one $$$ opportunity in the past because I didn't bail at the right time.

I make $9 an hour to nurse mentally disabled people. (a really bad job, we're talking diapers here)  I made $6k on BTC & LTC in last 3 weeks.

This keeps up, and I'll be on a perma-vacation and might not even have to wipe my own ass.  I'll pay someone $9 worth of bitcoin to do it for me  :D

I think an income in BTC is critical to 'being ahead' in the long run game. Selling your stash will only get you so far. Start coming up with more Bitcoin businesses everyone! :)

This feeling a mind changer.
Even if i consider it hard to see it as pure gain yet.
