'If you give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he eats for a lifetime"

This quote for me sums ups the best strategy for succeeding in cryptocurrency. Too many people trawl through forums, articles and youtube videos looking for what people say will be the next big coin. All you are doing here is accepting free metaphorical fish of people. A better strategy would be to learn about blockchain, distributed ledgers, distributed consensus and immutability. Then look into geopolitical events, then look into other economic markets outside of cryptocurrency for macro trends and then you will be able to make decisions on solid projects for yourself. This whole movement is about becoming independent so relying on other peoples opinions to form your own is a very dangerous game

It is true that we should teach them to learn how to fish and give fish that we can only do occasionally, and learning about bitcoin or the world of cryptocurrency is very important for those around us.

yeah that was right, we can't just giving them for no reason. But we can giving them a lesson also so they can make it by their own way
people have their unique of thingking and have some chosen path all that need it just getting know and learn

Sound advice, there's a lot to be said for the people who have a strong base understanding on cryptocurrency and the technology behind them as well as markets and how they tend to operate. If you can understand all these things you are in a good position to continue to make well grounded and informed decisions. If not you are constantly relying on others for your information and while they may feed you good information for a while, eventually you'll get unlucky and someone will not have prepared the fish properly and you'll get food poisoning.

Couldn't agree more. Not so much on this forum but there are allot of people stood with their hands out in this space. I think if you can be proactive in your approach to this space it will give you a huge advantage. The most experienced of people in this space are only a few years out in front. With dedication you can get to a very good level of understanding relatively quickly and because the space is always changing, more than any other in my opinion you have countless opportunities to be at the tip of the spear in this space!

Well, I like to read the forums to get a feel for the sentiment in the market. Sometimes I come across new coins to look at, but I take everything I read with a grain of salt and do my own research. It's useful to come across some shady stuff every now and then... keeps the brain sharp. :)

If you plan to look for the next big coin you need to do the research by yourself, sometimes that person only need more support or he is the part of the marketing team, all the decisions need to come from us, so we need to learn by ourselves not to depend on the other, you can take the person advice as a reference but in the end you need to do your research to decide

But in fact many people are lazy to learn fishing, and choose a fast way to get the fish and eat it. then whether we, will teach something of value to those who do not want to learn. for me, I will not teach people who do not want to learn, unless he wants to learn. I will tell you new, according to my ability. Because Cryptocurrency science is expensive!

A great quote that can be applied to pretty much anything. Doesn't mean that you should ignore opinion pieces completely though, as mentioned above, these (if a wide ranging selection is used) will give you a feel for the investor sentiment. And yes, the best way to succeed in these Wild West days of the markets is to learn learn learn. I use a number of YouTube channels and trading websites to keep up to date on news and learn more about trading. In the last 6 months, I have learned some invaluable tips, now I just need to make sure I stick to them - and it's not always easy. Go fish.

Hmmm, I totally agree with what you say If you give a fish to a man, he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he eats for life "
Similarly it is better if we teach them how to fish because it will be more useful for him,in addition he will also always remember what is taught...

So true. And far as I know, opinion of others doesn't make any weight specially in crypto sphere. Well, they can persuade others to join the bandwagon, but if you are investors you should learn how everything works before shelling out for hard earn money. That's why a lot of investors got burned early this year, because they really think that bitcoin will continue to go up eventhough we really touch the peak last December. So eventually the market crashes and those who have bought around $16K-$19K was disappointed sold off and experience big losses.

In this qoute we can relate it to cryptocurrency if we just give a man a crypto with knowing how it works it would be useless however if we teach that man how to use and trade the crypto he can earn more in to it. Also if you teach them how to fish they will remember it and earn from it than giving them a fish that can feed him for a day.

I agree to you it is much better to teach a person how to fish than giving them a fish...  Even in school it is happening... It is much better if you teach or guide your student to seek an answer to their questions in life rather than spoon feeding them with information...  Here for me it is much better to help people in needs to understand much a lots about crypto rather than teaching them all information...  Learning will takes longer time if we are the one who pursue to get it rather than we just only heard it with other....  We are just here to guide everyone but we dont need to rely to much....  Because it will makes us always dependent and we are just controlling our self to dig deeper to deepen our understanding....

i couldn't agree more.
and the biggest problem is that all those other people on the internet (Youtube, Twitter, Telegram,...) that are giving advice on what to buy don't know what they are talking about themselves! they are always posting about the coins they want to get pumped. so metaphorically speaking they are giving you a rotten fish instead.

Well if you are an knowledgeable person and willing to teach him how to fish it's better to do that. For me I will teach the people that wants to know about the crypto and how gain money from there, because I want to share my blessings that I have to other to help them.

I always see that quote as a very meaningful one which is applicable in all aspects of life. Its rather practical to teach someone on how the system works for him to earn as well  than always lending him money to supply his needs.

So what do you mean man? I thought that you will teach people here how to fish LoL

What shall happen if there's no fish in thr pond for fishing???
It depends on the specific cases. You can take all advice for your reference and make a decision yourself independently or via versus. But one problem might still arise here: your decision is still wrong and you have to pay a very high price for that, just called "idiot decision"! And then, what shall happen if you loose your control or confidentiality?
In any cases, everything can be changed and you have to follow the changes

This is qoute is applicable for a successful person due to the use of bitcoin for many other people uses bitcoin and instead of gaining, they are losing money instead due to investment scams which we think that are easy money. So if you know a better way to earn money from bitcoin, i would like to hear it.

That is absolutely right, being a independent person is the best things that can we credited to ourselves. I do believe that it is much better to teach other so they can able to do it for themselves for a lifetime than to give them or brings to them the already product of your worked because that will be only once or twice and won't be last longer. However, it is better to gain anythings that you needed if we do it in our own and not because by other people.

There is one slight difference though. You can't just connect to the Blockchain and start receiving free Bitcoins. You would need a stick and a cord and some grubs to start fishing. For Bitcoin, mining equipment aka the fishing equipment equivalent would run you several ten or hundred thousand dollars easily. If you want to work in the crypto space, you would need to get a degree or learn skills and get paid like any common day job out there. Bitcoin doesn't provide free riches to everyone.

People are always after cutting corners to achieve their ultimate aim "to eat fish not ready to learn how to fish" There are many fields in cryptocurrency that when fully utilized will create job opportunities like trading, mining, blockchain developing e.t.c all these jobs are self sufficient jobs that requires taking a personal decision.

For me "teach him how to fish"these qoute realizes that no one can achieve a dream without struggles,challenge's and hardwork to caught .If we learned we may appreciate the good result or the hardworks that we may dream. If  we keep on begging or wait of what is given to us, nothing will happen.

That's true. Especially because you need a good understanding of the technology itself to identify crap coins to good ones. It's really hard too since most media covering cryptos have a poor understanding of it. They're mostly overselling it like it's always the new big thing. You need to be able to get information yourself to be ahead of others.

On logical grounds its better to teach man how to fish. In this world of cryptocurrency, your own indepth knowledge of this new arena of digital currency will keep your platform solid and your future secure to earn money ( equalivant to fishing yourself). Getting second hand knowledge and depending on others for earning assests will make your ship sink one day. Stay well read and be your own boss.

I agree with your opinion. No need to relies on others opinions. Only social media hype cannot make more futurable coin. Some of the people may think, the Cryptocurrency which has attractive web page will become more successful. They hesitate to take own decisions. If you do own research and chose a coin then, you do not need to blame someone if that goes wrong. By understanding the aim of the project, reading the whitepaper and find out the members of the team will lead you to take a concrete decision. Learning fishing is hard but once you learn it, not only eat for a lifetime but also you able to buy a ship if you make right decisions. Same as the crypto-world.

Thanks

It's upon the necessity of the respective person, because if the person is in hard and immediate need then giving the fish is a wise choice. Apart from the same, if the person is in need for a longer survival teaching him about fishing is the best. Same is the case with digital currency as well.

Teach yourself how to fish and don't worry if others have fish or know how to fish or not because there are not enough fish left in the sea to feed everyone.

-Dappercius

Build your canning factory when everyone else is learning how to fish.

-Dappercius

For me I'll teach him how to fish, by doing this that man will definitely learn how to fish on his own, without help from the others, when he learn he can stand on his own feet and proudly face the world with a big smile.

Yes, I really missed the mentor at the beginning of my journey. All that I was offered help, usually just wanted to be tightened to my company. I was inexperienced, but in fact, they turned out to be nothing, they can not do anything. I made myself and left them behind.

I guess the canning factories when related to the crypto industry are today's crypto exchanges or specialized mining hardware manufacturers. They always turn a profit regardless of the Bitcoin price. It's a sweet business venture. Work smart not hard as they say  ;)

That would be one take on it, of course.  I meant in general there is always another angle to take and for myself, it's not running down to the river to stand around holding fishing poles like everyone else. 

:-)

The quote above is true,  remember not all have access to various information must of this bloggers and youtubers have I mean the legitimate ones not the predictors. I also have a quote "Take advice form mentors not advisers ] advicer usually don't have experience but mentors do.  Like the BItcoincash and bitcoingold case, it was advice I thought from my mentors that gave me my success so the whole issue rest on information. When you're informed you can't be deformed. As a newbie you can rely on them while you develop yourself.

That is so true. By getting the low hanging fruit off social media you are more likely to be getting information that is rotten which compounds the danger to new investors.

Precisely! That's what I did actually, I'm doing tutorials for newbies from on and offline. I'm just sharing all my knowledge including DOs & DONTS. Teaching them the right way how to earn real money from Bitcoin without spending penny. I won't give them Bitcoin but rather gave them my whole passion in this field.

Right,giving is a nice act but if we keep on giving they will become lazy because they never learn how to make a living.Its better to teach them on how things work even in the crypto world.Theres nothig comes easy but if we guide them most probably they will learn and like us they can also make a living in this forum if they will be open minded to learn about cryptocurrency business.

I couldn’t agree with you more. But the thing is, this applies only to people who are willing to help themselves. I have friends who still wouldn’t go into bitcoins despite all the tips and tricks I’ve imparted to them.

if they were actually giving them "fish" then it could have been a good thing and we could close our eyes on it but they are not even doing that. they are giving bad advice and making the situation in the altcoin market even worse and fill the pockets of the whale pumpers that reside in the market.

That is an obvious thing. Once you yourself are clear with the entire system, and you possess the necessary facts n figures, you need not ask anyone or be dependent on anybody. That is why it is very clear that one should be equipped with the required knowledge well before investing, trading and posting on this forum.

But bitcoin talk forum is a platform where people with some knowledge and others who are newbies interact with each other and share their point of views. So I don't think there is anything wrong in doing that. if someone has a query may clarify it here on this forum. that does not mean, you will be judged. But of course stupid questions are just a waste of time.    

Of course it's better to learn all ins and outs about crypto, to know what's going on in the world, especially the financial world. If you have a clear overall view on world economics, you could make wiser decisions. And to get all this, reading about other people's opinions, going through forums, articles etcetera, is very helpful.

yeah the reasons mentioned are very logical but when people don`t want to be taught and have closed themselves into new things and wait for some "analysts" to predict the market you can`t teach them anything.

I agree with your statement. It's better to tell the way than we give him a result. Because everyone has their own way to develop a way to get results. As in this cryptocurrency.

Teaching someone hoe to fish is very important considering the fact that when he's taught how to fish he wont be always asking from you. I remember when I knew nothing about Crypto. It took me 2 weeks to know how to fish for cryptos and thanks to the one who taught me how to fish on my own because it has made me who I'm today. So you need to teach how fish and to give always.

Lol this reminds me of Bitconnect (BCC) they also made some promises like this and told people that BCC coin is going to be the next bitcoin and those people kept giving these newbies or hungry people profit for a temporary time and after they invested their most of the money they've earned or Lifesaving they ran away. If someone had taught them how to avoid such websites rather than referring those people to them then it wouldn't have been such a big disaster.

skill is definitely more valuable than money. Smart people spend money in order to learn something. The most embarrassing investment, this investment in their education and skills

first, give him a fish, that is essential otherwise the man will die, and after that off course you will have a time to teach him how to fish for the rest of his life, both actions are good and acceptable depending on situation.

Let me add the quote of Abraham Lincoln "Give me 6 hours to cut down a tree and I will spend the first hour sharpening the axe" it is a great quote for the beginners who are entering the world of cryptocurrency, If you will enter the world of cryptocurrency you must first have some knowledge and you must do some preparations about it. mostly this is the mistakes that are done by the beginners.

I totally agree with that. Spoon-feeding will not do a thing. With regards to crypto, the forum is a good medium for learning. This serves an interactive guide to everyone. However, we can execute our own strategy to further learn on our own.

It's good that this topic has been brought up on this forum. Better teach a person and let him do it for himself, than to do it for him. In this way, it would test his productivity, skill, and being wise to deal difficult situations. In relation to cryptocurrency, I believe one should seek more information inorder to learn and grow and is aware of the difference between knowing and doing. As much as possible enriching our knowledge and educating ourselves are very important because once we acquired these, it will never be taken or stolen away from us, it would prepare us on board anytime.

Yes just totally relying on others opinion would not be helpful all the time.It would be like taking risks blindly.Spending time to learn about the basics of cryptos,their price histories and the future developments in the crypto industry only would help anyone to sustain in this new industry for a long time.

Learning all the superficials about bitcoin is indeed useful, but in the long run, it is really ideal to get to the bottom of what really makes bitcoin successful so far, and what improvements can be made in order for it to be an undisputed cryptocurrency. Going with the flow is not really going to be very beneficial in the long run. Seeing things ahead requires a deeper understanding of the technology and I believe that this will be the major driving force for one to succeed in this community.

Definitely, I agree with the author's comments on how an individual should do with regards to learning in cryptocurrency. I think it would be better also that you should have to do your own research and perform self study through Google and You tube and not just rely on asking many questions on the forum which is sometimes redundant with the other early threads. It doesn't mean that all the comments will be beneficial to your end but there are some comments also that you may consider applicable to your understanding and preference.

Cryptocurrency is a gambling. There's no assurance, but we have to do it by our own, so that there will be no regrets. If you just wait, well at the end, it will not be worth it.

First you need to dedicate a lot of time to understand how things work, which is hard even for a tech person. Also not eveyone has time for that and nobody is paying you for learning.

I think it is on those people (with reputation) who understand technology, to share insights and benefits of using it.
Like using internet. Most people dont know how it works but benefits are clear and useful ( same can be said for car, cell phone, pills, monetary systems...)

it is better to teach fish to fish because later they will also benefit from it let's not be lazy to encourage and give positive in life so that they learn to fish in their own way we will guide them until they learn.at first it was difficult but eventually everything was fine

It is better to teach him how to fish than to give him a fish. It is better for him to learn to know how to earn so that in the near future he can stand on his own.

It is good to receive anything from others but the best thing that can others can give and share to us is a lifetime knowledge that we can use for a lifetime. There is a facts that it's our pressure to receive the things that are ready to use than to need to working on it first before we can use it. But the worst thing is you can only have this for ones. It is much better to give or share the things that can be much useful for a long period of time.   

When we talked about earning a crypto currency, it’s better to teach a man how to earn from it than giving him a currency, because like what the quote said giving them is just for one day of uses,but teaching them is for a lifetime.

 I prefer  both give the man a fish then teach the man how to catch fish because if you will just give the man a fish without teaching him how to catch fish, then he might rely or depend on you continuously. Of course, he should be able to provide or catch on his own.  Just like now in bitcoin, before an aspirant can join, he need to pay a small amount to register. And commonly, they  borrow some bitcoins to the other participants in here so they can initialize. Afterwards the regular member of bitcoin teach the newbies how to deal with it,  so that they won't rely always have enough about the crypto currency.

I disagree. I read those articles where is an analysis of some projects and news, and innovations, developments. This does not mean that I immediately enjoy eating "this fish". These articles are not only related to the pump. Some share their opinions and their experiences and thoughts. In this case, the boundaries between giving fish and teaching to fish are not clear. A teacher to himself - this scheme does not always work.

For me it's better to teach a man to fish rather than give him a fish because if you only give him a fish how can he survive when the time comes that you gave is gone unlike when you teach him how to fish he can survive for a long time because he knows how you do it and he can survive by himself.

It's how this world should be lol, you can only rely on your damn self, not anyone. So here we come back to the case of cryptocurrency itself. Why? Because no one will ever feed you what they have, no one is going to tell you which coin is worth investing, no one is going to tell you which coin to sell and many of that is from just yourself. It's how the world works, and it works even clearer in cryptocurrency markets.

This is only not applicable in cryptocurrency but in all aspects of life. Basically, if you wanted to survive in this world, you need to know the things yourself and not depend on others all the time because time may come when you cannot depend on others anymore so you have to do it alone. As early as possible, learn the things your self like when you are trading or investing in a coin. You should decide for yourself so that you will learn more if you made mistakes. If there is someone in the future that ask advice from you, teach him how to do it so that he will do it himself in the future. We need help from time to time but there are things that we should decide alone.

This is a great saying, all of the higher ranks here in the forum knew very much about this industry, the market, everything about cryptocurrency, why we are not helping somebody? Correction, we are helping the beginners but we are not spoon feeding them, they must know how to research and find ways on how to deal with this industry, from there they will grow and grow. But I am not selfish on what I know about this industry, I really wanted to help the new ones but I don't like the spoon feeding system.

Most people prefer to be given fish than to learn how to fish, I alway like to learn how to fish other than collecting fish. This post have inspire me, from today I will start thinking about a blockchain oriented project that will be of benefit to my society and start working on it.

You get 3 types of fisherman :

Commercial fisherman - They fish on a very large scale with big boats and in this scenario they are professional fisherman.
Sport fisherman - They are professional, but they seldom eat the fish. <Catch & Release>
Recreational fisherman - The person fishing for fun or hand to mouth. <They also eat what they catch>

If the recreational fisherman wants to be smart or lazy, then they will follow the Commercial fisherman and even the professional Sport fisherman, because these guys use special/expensive tools and they have a lot of experience to find the fish.

As a trader, you will have to identify the best Commercial fisherman and professional Sport fisherman and learn from them. Do not follow the advice of your fellow recreational fisherman, because most of them are clueless.  ;)

I strongly agree we better teach him fishing because once made a lifetime that science is a very valuable.

I would like to give a different position. I believe that fishing doesn't have to be for everyone. I mean it would be great if all people can use cryptocurrency to make payments or whatever, but if all people start trading on exchanges, invest in coins, tokens and hodling - it will be a big crap

Well, as for me I will  teach people to catch fish rather than giving them fish all the time. I can teach them to learn bitcoin so that they can earn extra income from bitcoin and will able to stand to their own feet. Teach them to earn and not to ask. Teach them how to work than let them unemployed for the rest of their lives.

Yes, teaching someone how to do something can make a great impact to that someone who really wants to learn. Not just give him things that are easy to use or sell or consume. We should teach the person things that he or she needs to become one of the successful people. It is also the learners job to become eager to do the things rightly and not stop learning and gaining knowledge.

''Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime'' one greatest quote of all times.Give a man the answer, and he'll only have a temporary solution. Teach him the principles that led you to that answer, and he will be able to create his own solutions in the future.

It is more better when you teach someone. Sharing what you know to a person will make him/her better. And they can provide all their need because of the knowledge that you share to them.

Yes thats right,you cant get what you want without an effort. Some people are too lazy to do things with their own,they want things easily. Thats wgy sometimes i dont teach or share to others what i know because once you teach them, they just always rely on you.

This really is profound advice and something I have come to realise more since the 'correction'; it's easy to get caught up solely in the crypto-bubble, but looking to truly understand the technology's fundamentals, real-world applications and from an outside overall perspective is the most helpful thing you can do.

If someone ask a favor to beg some fish on us, its better to teach them how to be a fisherman because we teach them how to be independent. Its also like in this forum, we can teach others to earn bitcoin so that they also have a good and better future.

After reading your comment first i gave merit point then started to reply . Its really true what you said there is lots of thing involved while your investing . If your investing before learn project , See the next big event . Mainly crypto market if it is really in a bearish trend without any reason then invest on that . Still these market completely run by speculation and news . So current affairs and awareness really make lots of difference.

Yes. I really agree to you, you should not spoon feed people, much better if you teach them, so that they will not rely to you anymore, they have more freedom to do something specially in crypto, when you teach them how crypto works, they have the freedom to do some things, like earning or learning blockchain.

how someone would be interested in fishing, if not yet know what to get from fishing. for that my suggestion is give him a little BTC to know what is BTC and indeed can give something real, then teach how to get btc and gain profit through BTC. because some people will be interested if they already know what they will get and they have enjoyed even a little, and that in my opinion apply to an education for people interested in BTC and race to have as much BTC as possible.

Yea. correct. That statement applies to Bitcoin completely right. Teach him how to make a bitcoin. He will use that bitcoin all his life. And if you give him a bitcoin he will use up all that he can not make another bitcoin. Great :D

That is if we teach it to the right person, there are people that even we thought them, show them or even give them BTC, they will still not believe in it, instead will just keep bumping you to give them, It will be good if all will work hard to earn by themselves.

absolutely, very true. In this case, the better statement would be that the man has all the means to learn how to fish on his own. All this info is here within the fingertip...

It can also apply that even if you give some of your bitcoins you are not actually helping them but you are leading them to a life of dependency. However what I can say is that, we are the frontliners in helping other people and we can achieve that by giving then accurate and correct information when needed and being able to assist and help them in any way for them to have their own bitcoin. That way they’ll learn how to live seamlessly.

It's always better to teach people how to fish, this knowledge will serve them on long term and help them in the future. This especialy applies for cryptocurrencies. If you teach people how to deal with them with time their experiences and knowledge will grow and with time they will get more and more expertise in using cryptocurrencies.

Completely agree with your quotes but now peopel are getting into crypto currency want to be millionaire in overnigth . Most of them rcompletely rely on trading chat bots , Telegram bots. People not showing any interest ot learn technology it is the main problem . if you learn about blockchain technology why it needed for particular project then no need to fear about your investment.

Of course, teach them how to fish because you can only give them one or two times, and not give them the opportunity to teach them so they can use it and you do not have to worry about it. to them

I think that lesson applies to all aspects in life, not only in crypto. We need to be taught and also discover with ourselves the things in crytpo in order to apply our own strategies. It is not good to be dependent all the time.  At first probably, we would considered ourselves as “copy cats” but in the long run, we should decide and execute on our own strategy which we think would give us gains.
 

It is very dangerous, to use trading for life. Because, one day, you will lose all, what you have.

Yes, that's exactly what is helping me today,
The time bitcoin was introduced to me I never took It serious because I didn't know what it could offer.
When a brother of mine started withdrawing from his account and I saw the alert with my eye.
I couldn't beg for money but persuaded him to teach me how to go about it.
Now I'm confident to be a Bitcoin user. 

Teaching is the best way of imparting knowledge to people. Using bitcoin was also a knowledge that was shared to me by someone and it really helped me a lot in the long run...

For most people you need ready-made fish. 5% of humanity are ready to fish themselves

For me I teach him how to fish,because  teaching is the best way to learn help many people to learn.

I prefer teaching how to fish because I am not always by the side to give,teaching is better for them to become independent.

 :) Good interpretation, and good for trading too

Just understand what the quote means. You gave the beggar food for today and he will survive just for a day but teach him on how to make food and he can survive for the rest of his life.

I agree with what OP's message just take the example of this guy.

How I taught a homeless man to build an app in a week: Software developer takes on vagrant and helps him develop his own business (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2436371/Homeless-man-builds-app-month-code-training.html)

The same goes for cryptocurrency, don't rely too much with the hypesters.

It is a very nice qoutes and its so motivational ,if i am the giver or the owner of the fish I teach him how to get it and it will long last until he live.I compare this quote in cryopto because all you need to do is to know the significance of everything before you waste it like he money,time ,knowledge and so on.

Your articles sounds good, the best we could  do is by directing people what to do nothing given them meal at all times. But by teaching them work or empowering people makes you who you are and always being at top.
Sincerely speaking I m well pleased about your write up. So many people over just moving in what to do and waiting for manner to fall from above which are not right at all.

Helping others is one of the good attitude that we can share our blessings. But we better to teach them how to earn than to gave them in a one day uses only that sometimes a result of being dependent on you.

yes i agree because we are not the same perspective in life we are different in every one of us, some people refuse to learn important things, and afraid of  challenges in life as a key to become better in the near future, they only want to received blessing without a hard work to others without a try because afraid of failure. But i appreciate people who is hunger for knowledge for their tool of success in life, i love this kind of people that is very willing to know for changes, and face all the challenges in life.

I really love the quote related to this post. It has a big meaning to understand and important to  follow. It is better our family ,relatives and friends to teach them how to fish because life is to short to feed them all forever.  Some of us who has a family working overseas they give a fish rather than teaching them how to fish.

It is better to teach how to fish than to give them fish. It has a simple explanation of it and this I guess is not already puzzled to everybody. It is much better to teach them how to fish because you give them the reason to work hard and get a fish than giving them a fish which yes maybe they really need it but you only teach them to become lazy.

For me it is better to teach a man on how to catch a fish rather than giving him a fish because when you do that you will teach other people to defend on you without doing nothing or we can say that we teach other people to become lazy. There is nothing bad in giving something to help other people but I think teaching them how to live on their own life is much better because time comes that they dont have to ask a favor or help to other people and they will be afraid to stand on himself when they are already learn to receive benefits without doing nothing.

this is my favorites quotes right now i remeber my days that im studying and dont know what to do and how will my future work and now look at me im good and earning such a numbers thanks to crypto and the people who teach me about this hehe

I agree with you. This is exactly what I am doing and I am glad that I found this forum because I can see that there are a lot of valuable information that can be found here plus a lot of ICOs in the altcoin section. I am very excited to learn more and to really start experiencing how it feels to get some cryptos.

Teach him how to fish so he can go fishing by himself and you don't need to go to his place everyday to just give some fish. The principle of teaching him how to fish is you helped him for the rest of his life and not just for 1 day and that is the secret and the key for helping people, don't help them for short term but always go for long term.

Teach him how to fishing because it will give him help in the end.

if I think it's better if we teach the man how to fish or how to catch fish. Thus he can catch fish when he likes. rather than always expecting fish from us .so do we always give them coin / money better we teach them how to invest in bitcoin / altcoin ..

How long will you continue to give him fish? At a point you will be tired of going to give him fish. So the best way to help him for the rest of his life is to teach the man how to fish or how to catch fish.

Its much better to teach them how to catch fish. They don't need sympathy as a well-being for lacking in resources and necessities but a hand that's ready to teach them how to survive just like what that person have done in his/her own hand to be a successful one. 

In Bitcoin, there are a lot of people who need to have some knowledge of politics, which in my country are beginning to have a lot of beginners. Instead, they read books that are knowledgeable and are more Investors have the capital to hunt for bonuses.

if you give a fish to someone he may know how to eat it but not by catch it, and maybe he will eat that day but not by tomorrow, but if you teach him fishing then he will be able to eat every day

I think that teaching a person how to do something is way more important than just providing it to him. And I see that a lot of people/companies make this mistake.

 i love this quote, teaching a man how to fish is better than to be giving him fish.

Unfortunately, learning is dependent also on the person whom you are teaching.

It is obviously, "teach him how to fish". If you will teach him how to work then he can have many opportunities. Also he will find a way for self improvement. 

I think giving them fishing rods, do not give them the fish is the best strategy, support and facilitate others to develop internal strength and become stronger than a humanitarian support, bitcoin or Other advertising programs too

Giving a man the fish will not always satisfy his hunger and needs, its like you are making him a "small fish in a big pond" but teaching him how to fish means you are making him "a big fish in a small pond.

The best thing you can do for a man to teach him how to fish and the person will have fish for ever. I really thank my boss Matoa4 who introduced me to crypto currency and bounty, it's a good example of teaching a man how to fish.

What a question...I would always teach how to fish, unless you want to create some dependencies

Very well said. People should not be making decisions on what projects to support just because someone said so. No surprise, most of the people who do are also the ones who are very vocal when things aren't in their favor.

I agree with you, this quote is the best strategy for succeeding in cryptocurrency. Many people want to learn pump coins but even though they learn it they lose money because they don't know the trading.

Its better to teach a man how to fish since not only the man will learn how to do it but it can be applied to other things or situation.

Better teach him how to fish if you wish him all the best

teach him how to fish is always a better option... This applies to any scenario - personal or professional..

advantages:
1. You empower people
2. You make them less dependent on yourself.
3. You help them learn (real learning)

This is inspiring thank you

this is so true, i wish we all have this mentality, but the problem today is that people prefer to continually give you fish, they will never want to teach you how to fish, in other words, they will not want you to know the source of their fish. this author is so correct about cryptocurrency, but bear in mind that one may not suceed entirely without support from experts that are gurus in the business.

Better i give him fish, i dont teaching someone again.

Teach him how to fish is Better than giving him fish.

it is always better to teach man how to fish to save him for life but some people are not teachable,its either they do not understand or they deliberately decide not to learn at all.

yes I am more giving a job opportunity to others because it is more useful for others who have no income than to give money for today alone it makes it look useless if we want to help others.

this saying is actually true. we could actually conclude that not everything we learn should be spoon feed to us. in learning there are also comparison between life and school, you see that in school you are given a lesson before you take a test or an exam, but in life you are given a test before you take your lessons. teaching someone also is the best way to share your knowledge.

Teaching how to fish is much better. When you know how to deal with the cryptocurrency and how to behave on the cryptomarket, then you can start earning a lot. Here self-education is needed as well.

By giving people a fish you make the demand even more. That's how socialism works all over the world. People think that they deserve something for free.

Very interesting title, this is a question worth pondering. I prefer someone who can teach me how to fish! LOL

This is part of life adage, after giving someone fish for sometime, try and teach the person how to catch his own. This is the best help. Don't just give people or your friend money lone, teach them how to make money, by doing this you will make them a better person and it even lift some burdens off your shoulder. So the best thing is to teach someone how fish and not giving them fish alone.

it is better to teach fish to fish because later they will also benefit from it let's not be lazy to encourage and give positive in life so that they learn to fish in their own way we will guide them until they learn.at first it was difficult but eventually everything was fine

i truely agree with you on that . There  are several said experts of cryptos which were wrong with predictions. I know some of them give good predictions and however if its goes wrong, this will cost someone and can bring someone back to zero so i suggest you learn hard and make your analysis yourself so that you can know when to enter the trend . With that , you won't blame anyone for anything .

It's a really good quote which can be applied everywhere. You should always learn something new and use your experience well to be successful, whatever you do in your life.

I couldn't agree more with you. There's a great vacancy always. Someone is always needed to take the initiative. It is the initiative that always bails others out. And the earth has a reward system of being kind to these risk takers. This is why employers will forevr be onhe rencieving end ofthis reward. They have learnt to fish. Giving others fishes consideny is always a bad idea. It has always been

Education should be the priority of any society that aims for any growth, all with it you could the problems they could encounter in the future

Teach him how to fish

I think teaching him how to fish is the best way. This is also the most effective way to help. Of course, if it is a lazy person, I will choose to give it a fish!

Must be boring to only eat fish. Better teach that man how to do grocery shopping.

It is better to teach a man how to catch fish or fish than to give him fish to eat, because if you give a man fish to eat you only feed him for a day, but if you show him how to fish or catch fish you have feed him forever.

we must not be satisfied with a quick, immediate and ephemeral gain, we must study with humility in order to have the right tools to be able to create a constant income over time, if one launches into trading without having the basics, he burns the capital in a short time,if he knows what he does he can get good earnings, big income

I really like the quote above, it's really inspiring...
I have also heard a sentence like the one above while in a seminar. It's not good if we just follow other people's opinions, it would be better if we could think and live independently. good luck to all of us.

if the man lives in a desert. where there are no lakes..
give the man a fish.
no point teaching him how to fish if there is no where to fish

if the man lives near a lake/ocean. teach a man to fish
no point someone else fishing for hours just to hand it to a guy. if he wants fish let him learn to get it

If a man lives in desert it would better to teach him other skills than fishing, but how would you get the fish into the desert? It's better to use local things than import from all around the world. Also if you give the man too often a fish you make him dependent on you.

This quote is so powerfull, nice. If you teach somebody to succes you will get back what you give someday

Give Him fish and he will ask you forever again and again,Teach Him how to fish then he might Give you n the future when he caught large amount.

Feeding someone is not bad but why need if we can help them finding their own food, and not make them lazy.

I agree with you that feeding someone is not a bad thing but feeding him every day is not right he needs to be prepared for work it will teach you how to fish if you can eat every day without any effort you will become very lazy. When we come to this realization we realize that we have to fish ourselves we have to feed ourselves we have to cook our own food We cannot rely on food prepared by theologians. And that's the problem because we don't know how to do it.

No one is going to teach you the actual trick because its is their money making idea and they have no reason to reveal it, so all we need to do is to learn our own fishing idea from the opinions of others but it doesn't necessarily mean we are accepting what theg are saying.

While you are teaching a man to fish, give him a fish so he knows that he doesn't have an octopus when he catches something.

teach him to watch fishcenter live on adult swim :P

but maybe give a fish initially then teach him how to fish?

In real life, not everyone can start a new startup without any money. This phrase may not fully work in the real world conditions. If you want to teach a man to fish, you still need to give him the tools to catch a fish. You can't just teach him and leave him alone. Also Hunger is a big hindrance in learning. First you need to remove his hunger and then he can focus on teaching.

This is the best way if you want to ensure that person can stabilize on his own and start making mark for himself/herself in their life so that can take care of themself and as well of their family. You cannot keep on feeding for life long but if you tell them how you can earn in your livelihood and teach them some skills for lifelong it might just be helpful to them and then from there on they themself can figure out the next steps in life.

Yes it is better to learn on your own than to rely on others to survive.
We should learn to make our own decision if we want to have a higher profit and learn to make our own moves.
Yes you could rely on their signals to gain profit but is it enough?

If you leave him alone without the tools, give him the knowledge, so he can get the tools out of nature, where everybody else gets them.

In the USA, one of the major reasons that 38% of the land is locked up in parks, forest land, and wilderness land, is so that poor but smart people won't go out there and make the tools for themselves. They have to go to big business for the tools... which, of course, they can't afford. Big business has eliminated competition this way.

It's called slavery.

unfortunately it is true in all sectors, in all fields, immediate temporary help does not solve the problem at the source but can only temporarily alleviate, if instead people are taught the most effective way to solve, stem a problem then it really helps them

Nope it is not a fable mate but that is a reality , Learning how to find your food is necessary than asking for food each time.

It is not literally fish but How to Survive , this is also my point in life , yeah i love helping people but as logn as i can , i will try to deal teaching them or giving them capital to start small living.

This is the true thing that everyone should be taught to learn how to work and get it done so that in their own life they will be able to work and earn their livelihood. They would not have to be depended on the government or somebody else to seek the monetary benefits as this will also help them to develop and in longer perspective helps the economy too.

sure but it is not 100% he will learn from his mistakes

I agree wholeheartedly with the OP. As most of my posts reflect, I always prefer to teach about a subject and encourage others to learn the how/why of things vs just giving a single answer.

Learning the how/why lets you understand the reasons behind something and that will hopefully give you insights into other questions you may have on a subject.

 this is always a question how to teach  or do u actually teach the right way

This is what i am having in my life, though i try helping others by giving foods or some small cash but i try educating them how they can find Job or work.

i once tried to Give small capital to a friend for them to start up, and yeah they are now having a good run of business and coping in life.

You can teach that man but you should let him practice what he learns to grow his ability and learn more to know better.

It is not better if you teach everything because he needs to learn by himself. We can not teach him every time because we also have another thing that we need to do.

I completely agree. This should be done in any other area of life. Be not a consumer, but a creator.

I actually think it's a good idea to give both the fish and teach them how to turn it into many fish.

In regards to Op point.
Ofcourse, I think people who understand what true cryptocurrency space seeks to achieve and care alot about it will likely know how to do well in this (especially long term) without getting entangled in things that are contrary to the good ideals  of true Cryptocurrency.
By the way, they should be careful investing in projects that lack all the important ideals of true Cryptocurrency. It's important not to get used to them so they don't feel too bad when they experience the consequences.

Unfortunately, these days, not so many are ready to fish for themselves or take the time to learn how to fish.

It becomes a problem because, they view you as trying to escape stress or putting them to stress. Like they've been a burden for which you've been enduring and just wants to throw at any given opportunity.

So, how to fish is reserved for those willing to learn and as such, they have to present themselves. Then they would appreciate it the more.

Then never give them fish that is simple solution , because letting them become more Lazy by helping is also not a good idea.
But they must learn and earn , that is the cycle of life.
Lol That is a obligation of every human , and if you don't wanna fish then better DIE now.

Give a man a fish or teach him how to fish


Don't you realize that he wanted a steak/stake?
Should have save that one for the fun pun thread.

And applying it to cryptocurrencies, many are choosing to be spoonfed instead of doing their own researches.

Asking what coins to invest although it's an obvious question that many will say that it's bitcoin. And when they've heard the majority told them that it's bitcoin as the best to invest and start with.

They would ignore it.

i thought the 'give a man a fish or teach a man to fish' slogan was in reality

take a mans home near a river away from him. dump him 20miles away from any river and teach him to rely on food aid to give him fish

yep
africans pre-1950 living near rivers knew how to fish.
but since 1950 they have had their homes and land taken from them.
charities like unicef and red cross are simply the band-aid trying to cover up how africans gut hurt in the first place.

so here is a new slogan 'dont take their land'

Good advice OP, also remember it should be advised that people only invest what they can afford to lose. Some people chase unrealistic dreams by investing too much into a specific coin because somebody they know is wealthier or doing better than them.

My advice is simply buy & HODL bitcoin but not everybody is that patient & they panic sell during downturns.

Maybe teach him how to fish.

I thought it was Teach Fish how to Human  ;D ;D ;D




Lol crypto is a world of risking and knowledge , this must be together for our benefits.

Yeah because on the very spot they need fish to eat while learning how to fish.
Well that is why they need us , we will encourage them and we will teach them how and why they will invest .

Yeah, Mr Trump`s book :) Have you read it? More about USA capitalism not Finnish.
