Sharing my experience on trading fiat for bitcoin at $264.70

[Bitmeat]

I was very proud to "buy" bitcoin at the peak of its "bubble" and emotionally moved.

You are an idiot and proud of it.

I am looking forward to working with some of you if I can in this next phase.

Oh, there's plenty of folk here who would love to work with somebody of your calibre.

Now that is the reaction i was looking for!

Finally!

I know this investor called pirate or something that is looking for more bright confident young folks like yourself!

Instead of trying to get rich off speculation where greed clouds the mind such that one things "I am better than 50% of bitcoiners" how's about looking at it as:

"I'm not sure how safe my €/£/$ in the bank now so I'm going to buy some BTC and try to forget about it so that it might be there should I need it."

Even if you lose out from $240-$50 you still have some coins. If there is some kind of economic emergency then you still have those coins. Further, such coins are more likely to rise in such a scenario (but not always - see gold's fall this year). So it's a punt, but better to punt in a small way than not.

I'm a idealist, and for better or worse, not motivated by greed. I'll look for like minded people on the forum...After seeing bitcoin grow to $265 I am now 100% convinced this is going to actually going to work.  I was quite happy to put more money in at the peak of the bubble, as crazy, naive and idiotic as it sounds, I wanted to do my part to keep it going as high as it could this round.  When it crashed, I didn't bail, I kept my coins in there.  I helped bitcoin get to its low that day ~$55 and its high ~$265 which is something I am proud of, and something all of you will remember about me.  

I'm putting all my fiat money into bitcoin.

edit: re-reading this, the part about the low sounds a little insane...what can I say, was caught up in the moment...
