The most you can afford (to lose in the worst of the cases) the better... IMHO

you should start a poll. just posting such a question gives no clear answer.
besides that, "it's never enough" is my answer.

1% of all the bitcoins (210,000) would be nice, but I think it is no longer achievable by anyone but the super-rich.
1% of 1% of all the bitcoins (2,100) is a good goal if you are wealthy and can get there quickly before the exchange rate goes up too much.
1% of 1% of 1% of all the bitcoins (21) is achievable by many people now, but maybe not next year.
1% of 1% of 1% of 1% of all the bitcoins (0.21) will be a good goal for someone getting in next year.

Agreed.
The gold standard for how much you should buy?
"As much as you possibly can"
and
"As much as you're willing to completely lose".
Put those together, primarily the 2nd one, and you'll probably be rich.

21 for the glory in 21 paper wallet spread around the world
21 to play, trade, buy with
More if you can afford it

Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it as a donation to everyone. it has lots of buttery taste.. |

24 million.. wait, that would make my bitcoins worth close to nothing  100 coins sounds reasonable for a long hold. if it reaches $10k within 2-3 years, that's $1 million.. not enough to retire though. |

If you truly believe in Bitcoin, less than 10 would be enough to retire on, if you're young enough. (35-40)

Get as many as you can. There will be a point in time where owning an entire Bitcoin is an accomplishment.

Basically this. Go for 2.1 Then go for 21 Then go for 210 if you think you can...etc Divide 21 million by how many you hold. The resulting number you can say you own one piece out of that many pieces of the global Bitcoin economy. Technically it is 12m divided by your current holdings. |

for a long term holder i'd say hold on to as many as you can but DO take some off the table... for a initial investment i'd say 100%! of what you can afford to lose..... |
