That’s one huge change, if you believe on quantum leap, that’s sort of it, a massive leap forward, I’m lapse into the future self within just a few months, that’s crazy, you’d figure that Erik Finman the self-made crypto millionaire are many years ahead of his peer, who’s still trying to figure how to skip the classes in school, that’s the quantum leap for him, I had made the change, you too did it? That’s great for you! And yes the bitcoin and bonus campaign, they’re god send.

===
That’s pretty much sum up to what I’d getting through in the past, it was depressing, that you finally unmask their true identities, and begin to know them not by their cover but the content, the big picture, and yeah a big mistake that we get into, there is nothing to feel sorry about, it should be those scammers that should be the one to feel sorry. But nope, they escape, because the federal reserve has been fooling around for so many years yet all these lesser evil scammer can easily get away scoot free, tbh, there wasn’t exaggerating in the story, it has been part of the life for most people, everybody is in denial, the zoomer generation would be the one who get screwed real bad, if they think my story are bad enough, they’d better pray hard.

===
That’s sound advices, btw it’s all lesson learned through experience, there is no easy way to grasp this idea without experience it first hand, it’s not a surprise that how easily people are getting duped today, they’re completely clueless, read the mainstream news and you’d see the facts, bitconnect, for example, that basically boggle my mind, but it’s not absurd.

It’s strange, definitely I’m very pissed of investment especially the stock market, yet it turn me into a new type of investor, I turn into metal, I turn into crypto, I turn into hedging, but never stock market again, yes! It was indeed the faithful day for me, it change my life from a stock market investor to a completely new form of investor! I think it’s an upgrade from stock market, to the higher end of investment, it evolve into the butterflies!

He probably forget three years ago, bitcoin was by far less than $100, they’re just trying to cherry picking on the price, but two and three years does it make much difference? Do you brother with what you did five years ago? I could barely remember three years ago and every moment.

You wouldn’t be surprise he would soon emerge as bitcoin maximalist in the next few years, everybody FUD bitcoin first before they eventually shill it, remember the Morgan Stanley 2017 tm

In layman term, we all need money to buy food, any merchant willing to accept bitcoin as the actual payment option? Any? Joke aside it’s certainly a blessing moment, because it give us the opportunity to accumulate more bitcoin at very decent price, I’m actually quite happy to see that coming, despite my bags are bleeding fast, good luck to the guy who hodl a lifetime of wealth at this moment, I hope they didn’t do something regrettable.

Recession is horrible, I don’t think anyone could tell it’s coming until it’s too late, the last recession caught everyone by surprise and hit extremely hard, because nobody believe that, we’re in complete denial. Since everything is working well now, you can have your doubt, despite the market are having very good bullrun, and bitcoin is doing well too, it has recovered from all time low, I don’t think we are heading to recession atm.

A good story or a bad one, the one that don't even stand a chance to see the light before they get removed, and yeah I'm talking about the story that frequently get removed from the Internet, it's extremely fishy to me, a well written story that has no place on the Internet, and the authority with power could easily punish the content they dislike, to stop this sort of story from spreading, what's that we called, the Internet censorship, for what, I think for the purpose of national security, and nope it's not about deceiving the public, it's good for majority, I think there is many sites all over the Internet that we are allowed to write something personal, reddit, FB, Twitter, Instagram, discord, Google plus, YouTube, wordpress, medium, steemit, that's a lot of them, they're all "supposed" to be free of censorship regulation from the very beginning, something strange has happened, this sort of websites become more and more centralized and something funny happens, YouTube begin to banning violence videos content from getting into their platform, a few more site follow suit and begin to ban hammer it's loyal users from making any insane comments that's violating their terms of use, it's great, I think great for securing their source of profit? But I'm looking forward to Twitter to come out with their version of decentralized social network, I would be the first to sign them up the services.

One faithful night, your friend invite you to a fine dining, at nearby Mc Donald outlet and you agree, without warning conscious at mind, and you arrived, your friend , you feel they're different today, he look like shining brightly in front of you, look gorgeous, like shiny Pokemon you ever meet out of sheer luck, you have no idea what has happened to him, and you decide to dig it out and see what's he up to, then you hit up with the waiters and order the meal just as usual, and he began the conversation, he brag about how Mr warrior Buffett become rich, the amazing story of Steve Jobs, the ultimate Trump, the super Jack Ma, the immutable Craig Steve Wright, the famous CZ binance, then he would tell you, he is reading many books, and very inspired to become rich like them, you're not very motivated but he would tell you can earn a lot of money, can drive the latest and fastest car, can buy the best sea view condominium, bang the best hot chick, so much to do, your mouth are drooling but not knowing what you may have been setup to do, but you feel your life is really suck, feeling useless, unmotivated, that you don't have the life the same with Warren Buffett, you think it's unfair you want to change this all, then your friends would see the opportunity and begin to introduce their very own SCAM, they would then tell you to invest, it's the best way to become rich, 9 out of 10 billionaires are rich due to investment success, you see DJIA is soaring record high, a lot of rich people are born from DJIA, you're being left behind, don't you daresay nobody make money when DJIA is soaring high, it's almost a common sense that everybody should make money when it's soaring high, look all the investors become rich by investing in DJIA, the Americans are richest men in the world because DJIA soar to the moon and make all of the filthy rich, they are living the TRUE American Dream! You daresay they're not rich? You believe into what he's bragging then you begin to grow interest into investing, and

... A few months later...

Then I got to know the stock market and begun my journey to the mega wealthy, I started dabbling.

So after a year, I lost everything and took unsecured loans from many banks recommended by my friend.
These sort of loans have interest of more than 10% per annum, some may up to 17%.

I believe I have pile up a total of USD 100k  unsecured loans which I lost as well.
Overall I think I have lost more than USD 200K.

The credit consulting from the government isn't as easy as you think, I ended up with 5 or 7 years repayment tenure and only the amount after the annual salary got massively reduced.

I am broly 46 this year so any marriage plans are shattered.
My gf (imaging I have one) by a few years so it is difficult for her.

She left me after a few months when she confronted me and know everything. Yeah she confront me being a betaman, I had no nothing to assert domination over a fierce gf, knowing every legal system would work against me, I don't think I have anything else to loss, so I unearth everything.

My world crumbled, everything turn upside down, no one saw me when I teared a little in my cubicle after i received her breakup message via FB messenger.

Long story short, I try to limit my expense to just below $100 a week on food and transport. (Still I think I  managed it well so far but I need a few years to settle my unforgivable loans)

GF, marriage, kids, Seaview condo, fast and new car, billionaire are all but just faded dreams. And that friend of mine that introduce me into this SCAM a long time ago, are blocking my contact number, I never see them again for years, this son of the bitch, I would never forget and forgive them, they would blame me for (being naïve, for being unrealistically expecting a life of fifthly rich, for being impatient of getting rich, didn't get enough education in investing, didn't always follow the rule of investing, didn't read a lot of books from Warren Buffett, take a lot of loan from banks to invest, didn't invest into the correct stock, didn't buying into the winning stock in a successive  orders of up to 10 consecutive trades, lose more money than winning of course can't be rich like Mr Buffett, ... <insert your rants here>, <and here>, <and insert here>, <insert more here>, <insert key Words>, <insert Scam here>, <here we goes again>  )

It’s true, they need a lot more understanding to how it work, this is very bad, all the women I know get into it just for the money, they would choose a wallet that’s very easy to access, with just 4 keys password and and android apps, I’m not sure what they read all over the internet about bitcoin but their action noticingly frighten me, their concern for Cryptocurrency security is nearly as low as non existent, can you even believe that? That’s why I suggest bitcoin need to be as easy as internet banking, women need a lot of help from the banker to manage their money, they can’t perfectly independent with using bitcoin, they would always need a lot of help from sending, buying, selling and receiving it, there is no easy way for them except A LOT more help, and every single day they need that help, a life time help and more knowledges.

It is super effective! By calling “BTC is not Bitcoin” he can easily get a lot more attentions than spending millions on paid ads that usually took ages to get ROI back. And it baffle me to how many newbies would still fall for buying into his shitcoins.

I don’t know, I think staple food price are soaring high, stock up food, stock up drink, and stock up more bullets.

That’s right we usually use price to rank how valuable the item is, and it baffles me too when bitcoin surge to 20,000 ATH by the time DJIA was still trading below 20,000, which is MASSIVE in my opinion, but it didn’t mean much by now. The comment section is yet another item that baffles me, I couldn’t believe it basically just grow so much and fast too. That’s true bitcoin has no place to compare to DJIA which the entire market is worth 250 trillions USD, bitcoin didn’t even account for 1% of that size of wealth. The same goes for gold market which is roughly 8 trillions dollar. Well if I was to come to conclusion, the markets always confuse me with all the random numbers flashing on the screen, deception at it’s best.

That’s right, most professionals have way more sophisticated tools for data mining at their disposal, and they have a team of hardworking programmers ready to deploy everything to its fullest like in the movie “The Great Short”, they probably won’t fancy with primitive sites like that, btw those aren’t something that we can gain access so easily too, the entire financial markets are always running in full secrecy, no info could get leaked from their sight. That’s not all, they also control nearly the entire wealth of the world under their fingertips, they may be famous by having the most wealth per individual, but they’re not having the most popular vote by approval (most comments), if an asset is highly discussed among users on a particular forum, does it automatically depict it is highly popular? Well I believe there must have a metric to determine it, count of comments certainly have its plus, after all nobody would have at their right mind waste their valuable time to create all the productive comments all over the forum, they could be spambot, but it would likely get filtered quickly too, so anybody want to waste their time again to maintain a spambot that can be anti spam proof?
===


===
There is nothing complicated, the data is very straightforward, visit the investing.com, navigate to the DJIA forum, and scroll down to the comment section, and you get the number of comments in real time, and do the same with bitcoin too. That would be the only site that any layman can do easily, of course it doesn’t require any technical skills and involving hijacking some unclassified documents or even to the sort of wiki leaks decrypting the govt secret.

I was frequent yahoo until it begin to ridicule me with consent/kyc and all, then many other sites simply try to silence all from their sites, include bloomberg, and then I stumble upon this site, investing.com, it baffles me at first glance, when it rolling out with crypto interface on their site, and the rest is history, although it didn’t turn out smoothly, the site eventually went down at some point during the peak, many early comments were permanently lost too. Well, we can’t have all the good thing in life.
===

I didn’t go deeper into every single comment and further classify them into many sort of items, but the site is always full of traders. Can I say some traders are moving into bitcoin from the other market?


That’s may sound legit, how soon are we going to see them also include some rare items we farm on some online game, since they’re too valuable items among gamers, are we going to see a lot of them getting listed, what about a limited time super rare Christmas outfit for the pokemon, with +stat, +hp, +speed etc, then that’s going to be crazy, the gamers would go to that site and start biding the price too, trading it too?


It’s indeed true, bitcoin are widely discussed, among traders, although nobody have a clue about what’s there for them to gain by gathering on the forum, are they traders? Are they bounty hunters? Are they just some random investors? But I don’t remember the last time bitcoin get discussed so openly on a clear net, it also give an impression that nobody brother whether it’s illegal, they would just trade it, also it seem the hype won’t simply dying anytime soon just like some red chip, which usually get pump and dump one last time before they die and never get mentioned again.

It may sound dumb, but I would like to know how widely talked is bitcoin compare to all other major financial markets, just looking at google trend or bitcointalk alone I couldn’t easily come to a conclusion as the variable I could use would be not compatible, let’s say compare orange to apple in this case, what can I do to make it easier? Look for a centralized investing forum and look for common parameter among two comparing asset, price is out for this one, any market parameter means literally nothing, the only thing that it could make some sense is the comment section, I’m intrigued by how widely talked in the bitcoin forum, and to my surprise, it even exceeding the number of comments to a very ancient market, and why I decide to choose investing dot com? I have no clue about this website, who’s the web master behind this site or their incentive of running it 24/7, but it have some features that we badly sought, that’s right, a freedom to leave your comment to your heart content, that’s what most/all financial sites are lacking, however gold forum would still take the first spot by a huge margin at about 10x more popular and widely talk than bitcoin.

Bitcoin : 80828 comments and counting since first snapshot on (2017 Nov)

DJIA : 31438 comments and counting since (2008)?

And I begin to wonder why the heck all this mainstream financial sites are listing crypto currency on their front pages? They trying to tell us something?

How naive you’re, all the big corporations are getting rich by cutting headcount, the more head they could cut the more they could save while at the same time the bulkier their wallets are getting, the bulkier their year end bonus for the top executives, you’re just a part of the target in their shooting squad crowds, sooner or later they would dispose of you when they think it’s fit for them, don’t believe me? And that’s when they cut all the head and only leaving the vital executives, the entire corporation would fall apart quickly since all the cash cow generator was cut to save cost, and leaving only the management stuffs who sucking coffers quickly with their fat bonus, while executives fighting each other to the dead for that little money that’s only enough for one luckiest survivor.

Yes cutting every cost is the ultimate way of richest, industrial products based slowly moving to service based business, because it’s cheaper to be in service industries, since hoarding commodity and piling up unsold inventories are going to cost the business so much that by doing nothing they simply go broke, while service based industries survive by doing nothing, they didn’t even need to pay for any overhead cost that face by their competitor. And yes, service based industries, soon it would be the working classes who would face their fates, all of you working slaves are just a product that piling up and forming a huge overhead cost to any dying product based industries, all of you need to be cut, the shooting squad is always ready to release their load to whoever they dislike. Don’t blame me why it has to be ended like this, it’s all the chaos created by the commodity market crashes back dated to the last financial crisis, and it’s not going away after these many years, but it just ballooned quickly into yet another bigger bubble, imagine the entire products based industries to immediately vanished in a single night! Yes! Please blame the ❤️❤️❤️❤️ who starting all the commodity market up for trading in form of future listing, the virtual fake paper gold trading is one of them, however gold could barely survive that rampant bank cartel, it’s not so lucky for all the other commodities, nearly all the other commodities simply collapse and drag the entire products based industrial together with the crashes so badly that the 2008 make many people go kys, some survived but suffer Great Depression so bad that we still watch it coming today, and the homeless crowds are too casualty from the mess, I think all of you may have no clue about 2008, you may have seem many people are acting weirdly but you think it’s completely normal because the mainstream news are telling you it’s all okey, nothing to panic, and you buy into that lies and think the people should stop acting weirdly, but it’s not the same today, we can clearly see the impact now, because more and more people are acting weirdly, and it’s no longer the same, the mainstream news didn’t manage to fool us again, because the entire internet are acting weirdly, you can see them in action, from streaming video from social site from your nearby frequent leisure’s spot, even your own mr president are acting like a ❤️❤️❤️❤️, you think it’s all fake? You may fool me in 2008, but not now, it’s 2019, everybody are awakened, they’re extremely aware of the impact and start working to prepare for the next action, many doomsday’s prepper are established each passing year, they’re not entirely senseless, they’re the one who have great insights, that’s why I believe they’re going to do well in the future.

===
Nope I believe in fairy tales, I think it would pay off one day, as long as we have strong faith!
===

===
Of course none of them are easy, they have constantly make it very hard for us, there is so much for them to gain, by telling you to follow that rules, while they hide on the corner and watch you failed, and they could get their share of benefits out of this plan.
===



===
That’s right, friends, wife, all of them are expenses, even the govt cost us money to run, bank also cost us money, does it matter wife or friends who has least lesser expense? I think it’s very subjective, you’re going to buy into the unknown, and you won’t know the truth until you’re deep into the world of no return, I’m referring to obligated to engage in that matter as ridiculous as marriage, tldr not going to go deep into the matter, seem to be it’s a topic that would bring the entire thread to the drain with that.

Puppy have a lovely life!!! Puppy get married!! TLDR!! OMG!

===
You may some point! Your views of economy, it’s the one the mr president obsessively endorsed!! Sanction!! Bank Cartel!! AML! KYC! PermaBan!! Imprisonment! National security act!! Did I missed something?? I think it’s it, more restrictions! The economy that restrict everyone but the mr president to do whatever, the lockup economy! If that’s the economy, everyone shouldn’t allow to make a thread here, we’re all silenced, no complaint, no fighting, no petition!
===


===
It actually take me a while, I didn’t know what to say about this revelation, frankly it’s a long while, because it’s too brutal, many would simply try to ignore that, they still have strong faith in their fantasy land, the Disney land’s ending, fairy tales are the only force that keep them moving, they think their hard work would pay off one day, they pay taxes, they believe the fairy tales would one day appreciate their faithful action, they get married, believing that they would soon get to the fairy tales ending, may be one day, very long journey to that very day, they use bank, believing the snake oil banker promise them will be rewarded handsomely, one day a long journey! They invest, believing the fairy would come to them and free them from the world full of snake oil! They get a job, believing... Oh believing the old school teaching!! Your school teacher tell you to be decent student! Didn’t them!? Fairy tales! But why? Why dafuq everything is distorted!? Everything has a two face!! Look at that, pay taxes, get married, use bank, invest and job, the downside always outweighs the upside, it is always you on the loss for doing everything they told you so, the snake oil, they would tell you more when you feel lost! More snake oil! More lies!!


===

===
True, I can get rich by paying taxes get married use bank invest in the DOW and get a job!! But not you!! You can’t get rich by doing what I do!! and you want to know da wae??

===

===
That’s all very subjective too. for feeling, I swear that’s a vast difference opinion between people with social status, gender, cultures, some of them really don’t need that emotional feeling, some of them want it real bad. Do you think you have the guts to accept whatever I may think about all that crazy rants, that’s flooding all over the tweeter, those uncontrollable emotional outburst full of rants attention seeking tweets? They might be jaw dropping at first glance, make plenty of senses for many people, and may even covering something that share the same sentiment with our feeling too, but it quickly get bored, and...yes!! It was the same with anime, I know some anime are themed around that, and that’s some anime for the psychopaths, and it attract many young audiences too, because why? Because the stress! Kids these day know how to handle stress, they harm themselves to gain stress relieve often time, some go as extreme as amputated themselves too, kids can get away with stress with this strange behaviour, but it wouldn’t be any lucky for a grown up adult, when they try to do the same, they would be quickly to be judged by their action and labelled a social defects, for them to be treated as “normal” they need to do whatever sjw told them to do, when they try to do anything funny, something like don’t pay taxes, don’t get married, don’t use bank, don’t invest and don’t get a job, they are quick to be prejudged the welfare rats, anime are ahead of time for all these! Amazing! We are all but living behind the shadow of anime show, and we don’t even know why! And nope we’re not living in a matrix, they’ all wrong, those idiot think it’s matrix are too part of the anime show.
===


===
Yeah that’s mundane to think of drug and robbery, but we all know most of these druglords or robbers are still living with their parent and still part of the basement dwellers too, why didn’t they’re independent and can afford all the best thing? They should have afford private yachts, private jets, private resort and all that suitcase full of US dollar!! The life of thugs!! You ask me why I know that?? Because I read some books and know that? Because I’m too lazy to quote the books that I read that tell me that? Because all those books are bored to death to want to read them again?? But thugs life is tough!! No way can the thugs get rich.

But the answer lie on the internet itself, plenty of money generated from it, I’m watching all the time.
===
===
I can fathom someone can deliver happiness from paying taxes, get married and have kids, use banking service, invest and working for corporate ladder, that’s probably what 99% of the cool kids who leave the schools doing anyway, that’s also what the 99% receive their happiness, that’s also a lot of generalisation for me to refute when I go against this group of people. But that probably not for everyone, especially not for the remaining 1% who would only enjoy life by doing everything completely disturbing and oppressive. And I’m not calling any specific person by the name, it is all up to everybody due diligence.
===


===
Puppy didn’t pay taxes why puppy are excluded from being jailed??

Puppy didn’t get depressed whynobody think puppy is crazy??

Puppy has no bank and never need one?? Why nobody build a bank for puppy?

Puppy didn’t invest! Puppy just mine it!! Either mine gold or mine btc.

But puppy didn’t get a job, puppy also don’t have a business, puppy is still poor.

===


===
Really? If my points are all valid, we shall see those result in the next decade, I’m sure it would be a norm in 2030 onwards you probably would thank me for these insight that’s dated ten years ago!

You just get into this world, and not knowing what is the subject of life, and that moment, you’re being burden to bear with shitload of debts, that you have no ideas what’s it has to do with you, and govt constantly feed into you to be loyal peasant, pay your taxes or waiting to get surprises dropping your soap, and the entire job markets are a clusters ducks by the time you have no idea dafuq mr president is spamming all the shit all over the internet that’s no really part of the job for him, by it has been going on since the invention of FB and all the buzz about govt going into building this cluster ducks social network from a simple platform into a dog shit full of govt agenda, and it’s not going to end anytime soon it will become part of them eventually. And...


Those people who would realise it later in their life, they’re too late to make changes and they would slowly and certainly being completely drained by this never ending vicious cycle that has been around for longer than the distance from earth to the Mars.

The five steps are the prerequisites condition before you could ever think about getting rich, you can’t skip that.



You owe the taxes money the moment you’re get into to this country, you owe! The govt! You owe that money! That life of you! You owe to me the govt! You owe that shit and you should pay! You owe that, you filthy worthless life! Owe that life to the govt! The life time of taxes to them! You owe that money! Do even read that! You owe that! You get it! You owe that you get to pay that you owe that! And you better pay that you owe that! You owe that before I’m the govt! The govt that I would! Would *beeps* and *beeps* that you owe that you dog shit *beeps* and pay that debt you owe that! The life you that! You owe that shit!
