Winners never give up.  :)
Persistence is vital when times are tough.
Also, good news about BTC growth is flooding in from all over the world.

You then are suggesting that winning is not enough. :-)  If there is no end then there is no win, if there is no win then there are no winners, there for....  heck you get the point.


Give it up.

I'd accept homelessness before reinvesting my wealth into murder-money, AKA nation-state fiat. Least of all the dollar.

That is pretty strong.  What country do you live in?  United States?

Careful, or the United States will come to set you free.
Fortunately, we sometimes do give up.  :)

Like most platitudes, those sound sweet and strong, but when they're exposed to the real world they suffer a bit.

Only a fool continues on his path when nothing but opposition and bad luck are in front of him. There are times that even wise men bow to Fate's will.

And of course, people will point to the successes of the world when discussing how important it is to persevere. But step back a moment and realize that they account for what - 0.0001% of the population?

Winners are generally the kind of people that are competitive no matter what they do, and competition has its benefits but also many draw-backs. World-changing is a game for the young, so if you're in that group good luck to you - otherwise, in hopes of avoiding heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure and mental issues, chill out, toke it up and enjoy what life gives you, instead of trying to wrench every last drop from it.

When people take your advice, it reduces the competition for those who want to succeed at something exciting.  :)

There are two kinds of people in this world.


Those who succede and those who quit.

My $.02.

So what I have proposed is a win-win, right?

My work is done here.  ;D

Of course you realize that they can be one and the same?

My greatest success was when I quit the corporate world.  ;)

Ah, but you then started something else at which you were/are successful, right?

Yes, but then I quit that as well.

For retirement.

See? After every success comes a quitting, either because you've failed or you've conquered everything you can see. So what's the point of repetitively doing that?

Why not just sit back and relax and watch the world go by? Let the youngsters try to burn the world down with their ambition - we old retired farts know better.  ;D

Volume of transactions are very important for any currency since it shows its popularity.

Right now for sure it is deciding point. Hard to put any bigger impact now on your own but we should maybe finally start to work together...
