I remember something my teacher said, never go after money if you dont have enough knowledge because you will have difficulty getting it. But pursue enough knowledge so that money will follow you.
This is a true guideline and can be applied by anyone. It's not just a matter of our money joining this forum, because some important knowledge cannot be paid for with money.
True, there's a saying that be competent enough so that success will follow you.
But the reality is that until now, many Newbie or people who just joined this forum because they want to get lots of bitcoin and get lots of money from the sale of bitcoin, but not balanced with enough knowledge about bitcoin and what exactly the purpose of this forum was made.
The reason why many newbies try to scam or get scammed themselves is this only. They just see "OMG! The value of BTC is $xxxx. Freakin' crazy I need this man!" When they are asked any technical aspects of BTC and its underlying technology Blockchain, then they just say "Yada yada, I dunno broda".
Getting money from campaigns in this forum is an appropriate bonus, for those of us who want to contribute and provide benefits in this forum.
But they think it's just a treat anybody can eat.
