Yeah I understood how he made the money, it just pissed me off because I missed it lol and built his computer AHHH, but I just pray that bitcoins do get stronger and I can make some money from it.
Yeah I hear you, it's a hard pill to swallow being "late" to the party and everyone's already had a good time with the free beer, although its still only like 10pm and the bitcoin party's actually only warming up. I just got here too.
The only real way you can come close to guarenteeing yourself earning some money from Bitcoins is to try and offer a service of value to the community - maybe something that other people aren't already doing, and you'll make much more than your friend did.
