Bitcoin Forum

So last night I'm sitting at my laptop and my wife walks in and says:

I scheduled a hair appointment for next month do your little bitcoin thing and get me some money! 

I just found it humorous that she realized it has been somewhat profitable and a residual income for all the evenings and nights I disappear to the pole barn setting up or fighting with hardware!

That is all!  :D

For the price of a short trip to Seoul, she'll be able to pay for her haircut directly in Bitcoin! :D

Haha but still I don't think she understands what bitcoin really is..! but then again I don't think you expect that from her. 

No she doesn't understand what it really is or how it works and I don't expect her to, but she does realize its potential and benefits after it started as "he's just playing computer games"!

But you are playing computer games. The crypto coin mining game.  ;D

The score is your GH/s. What's your best score?

My GF is all in for Bitcoin and cryptos.

LoL same thing with me man my gf gets irritated everytime i talk about bitcoins, I remember when gox died the same evening i was telling her about the whole story she gets so pissed and went off cuz she thinks gox was some online gaming site where i lost few POINTS called bitcoin and iam overreacting  :P :P :P :P

haha, I don't think most of us ever imagined that it will go from 1000+BTC=1USD to 1BTC=1000+USD, so in beginning it was a fun game.

With me is the other way around, my wife is the one who encourage me to invest in bitcoins.

I was a unbeliever too 1 year ago, but the profits made me get all in.

Now I don't dare tell others, even the closest ones, about it, will be hard hide from tax in case of another 1000x spike if ppl know about my hidden investiment

the game which pays real money :D

Or leaves you broke. Depends on how good you are at it.

it never leaves you broke, might leave you with small amounts of money, but bitcoins was never 0$ so not broke :D

i think husband and wife both are bitcoins freak hope in future they will not put his and her sons name small bitcoin

Well, if you suck at mining then there could be more expenses than there is profit.

Certainly not, since it has been proven women have no capacity to ever understand BTC.  ::)
Maybe someday we can provide a better environment for the ladies?

Something with pink and shoes.

*Picture of the Bitcoin standing on the pink shoes with a LV bag* - should be girly enough :)

edit: it's a shame I can't draw it - terrible at it.

good for you mate
well my mother in law is now believing in BTC power now and told me to get my husband into it but the poor guy doesnt have enough interest when it comes to BTC his only interest is his RC cars that soon to be his carbon copy twins and sad to say that im married to bumble bee

Hehe, that is funny. :) When I withdrew my first bitcoins for bills/other necesseties, I took out some cash from the ATM machine and my brother saw my balance and was like "WHAT? Have you been working without telling me or something?"

and I was like "remember those bitcoins I talked to you about that one time?" :3

Tell him take bitcoin seriously now or you will ask the same question in next few years .!

My mom thinks Bitcoin, programming, developing games are useless things and won't let me use the damn pc. She wants me to study every second  :-X

this is how it goes with most of the parents..! BTW how good you are in Programming and how much btc you own..!

ohhh mother :D
hey its ok mostly of our mom wants us to get educated because thats the inky thing that people cant stole from us besides you will surely missed it someday :)

that is not a concern... ! It is ok if Mother wants him to study , but what is wrong with programming :P that is what he will do after study :p and I don't know how one can study programming without using computers..!

It is difficult to convince women about the usefulness of Bitcoin. It took just 5 minutes for me to convince my cousin to collect Bitcoins. But it took 3 months for me to get my wife interested in BTCs.

i'd never said that there is nothing wrong with programming rob!
i was just saying that maybe his mother want him to prioritize his study on his major feild

and I'm saying She must not restrict him  for using damn PC :p haha ..!

hahaha maybe they hahe a quiz thats why his mother is restricting him
dont sit at the front of the computer and get your ass in your study table and review !!! :D

Sounds like you have yourself a gold digging wife.  My wife was supportive from what I told her and she had recognized the potential it had since the beggining.

and i think its not fair to call someones wife a gold digger :)

or may be He was preparing for the quiz on his computer..! and his mother restricted him to do so... and now he failed the quiz , and that is why he's not replying here.!

That's right, I have exams but she's too restrictive even when i don't have quizes/exams.

it's more likely she didn't understand the process or didn't believe in it but as she realized it was working she started supporting it..

doesn't mean she's a gold digger

I told my wife about this topic and she says to you "Thank you to that guy that think i am wise,see bb i told i am wise"

Glad to hear she is taking baby steps in the right direction.  I think the best way to open others to Bitcoin is to start to explain what Bitcoin stands for and the reasons people would benefit using it.

I think if your wife understands the whole thing about bitcoin, she’ll probably get more interested to use or mine it as well. And if she discovers the 75 online merchants and online casinos that accept bitcoin, she’ll be hooked to try it.

Could be a contrarian indicator.

Normally, when the general public takes notice and get involved. That is the last wave of bubble.
