Work colleagues laugh at me getting into Bitcoin

[lolgato]

Don't worry about them . When it rises a lot then they will start going on about it. Try telling them when it rises a lot. Especially when block halves.

[Luqman]

Let people think what they want, if you believe with bitcoin then go on. "Mind is your business"

yes you right. mind your own business. just show them how much the bitcoin price right now, and someday show them how many bitcoin you have. and i'm sure they will shock.

Definitely they just regretting over the time, just because laughing at me why I believe on bitcoin. 

I would be interested in see their face when the bitcoin price rise to $3000 late this year. They will regret definitely.

Wanna see that too, just like get too much pain. Then I'm the one who laugh at them now

[Steve_Tou]

I keep quiet.. make an account here and chat with bitcoin lover/believer better =)

Is great to tell them that you earn quite a lot of money with it.
But is better to just let it is don't listen or make fun with it.
For me they are friends who know what it is, but they don't have interest. So I just do it for my self more money for me.

I have been telling my work colleagues about bitcoin now for about 3 years and they still think its a big joke.  I dont care because i believe that some day i will be the one Laughing......  I think alot of it is people dont like things they dont understand and would rather make fun off it. 

So was just wondering has anyone else on here had similar experiences and how did you deal with it?   

you are really unlucky,yes i said like that because you have work colleagues that laughing to you because you are bitcoiner,its an old school,i think bitcoin is not for joke,its not funny thing,its a money thing and thank god,i dont have friends or work coleagues that laugh at me.

Just talking about Bitcoin to all of our friends may identify the really interested persons. Identifying a friend who has some interest on bitcoin ecosystem is not a big deal.

No problem, let these people laugh very hard at us. In the long term we will show them what our investment in Bitcoin did. I am sure that we can report a gain of at least 100% while the people that are laughing at us only get 1-3% interest on their savings. They won't like it.

[-Tx-Rider]

Who cares, man? Get on with your thing and let them get on with theirs. They're probably into stuff that you think is dumb too. You might have the last laugh.

[diegz]

Your colleagues don't know what you are into. probably they think that you are introducing to them a ponzi..You let them laugh at you, atleast now that bitcoin is a bit stable and price is good, you could now laugh at them if they are just starting to collect. 

[MyBTT]

People can say whatever they want to say about Bitcoin. Their opinion shouldn't matter to you.

[kevin go]

but i earn money with this althought not many..im still in bitcoin im sure the future will be bitcoin
for me im sure they laugh bcause they dont understand...in my mind, one day they will be interest in bitcoin too..

[michnelli6]

I think they laugh now and you will laugh at them when you get rich with BTC

[diegz]

yeah, specially if bitcoin price boom. maybe they will follow you but of course, they are left behind, they'll be begging you to repeat your explanation about bitcoin.

I do get the same experience... But like you said I belive some day I will be the one saying " I told you so".


Can't do much else but try to explain it to them. It's to the point now though that they don't even listen.

[angaper]

It has been a natural behavior in humans to laugh at those things that they can't understand or admit as an alternate vision of the world. Unfortunately the bitcoin is still a very recent phenomenon and most people is not yet familiarized to it, but I think it is only a matter of time to get the sufficient respect and credibility.

[ricardobs]

Yes and if you dont use Bitcoins, they may also laugh at anything else. I think the best idea is to see what suits you and carry on with that, discuss your family and then take decision in case you feel confused.

[Bitcoinpro]

Keep Bitcoin a secret and do wat everyone else does and pretends  they have

never heard of it and when someone brings it up pull this face

[Blinken]

At my company there are a bunch of people who either own bitcoins or at least are interested in "blockchain technology" from a theoretical point of view. Then again, my company is very high tech. Your mileage may vary.
