Do not let the over excitement after the bull-run pull you out to danger

[Russlenat]

We better keep our lives secret rather than expose them publicly because people around us are never happy with our great achievements as they prefer to see us down. I'm not sure if this is also happening in other countries but this really happens to us where people get jealous when they see someone become rich. In order to avoid these people, never show anything good to them. As much as possible, never let these people know your income and investment because they will just create unreliable stories that ruin your personality and reputation.

Never post anything on social media about your life or it is much better not to use this platform anymore to keep everything secret and unknown. And also for security reasons.

Just stay low key. Instead, make people believe that you’re living no good, that way they won’t create speculations about you. And always avoid flexing your investment profits or any achievement all over the social media, that will only put your life at risk. And as much as possible, chose privacy over getting known to the public.  You don’t owe anything to the public, so just chose to keep your life’s progress in private.

Couple of days ago, I read about a thread with a background of how two friends discusses about Investing in Bitcoin but while one was unready with irrelevant excuses to put a realistic action to it, the other one has already anonymously invested and was doing well in his investment.
Later on the unready guy felt regreted on why he never invested. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5488722.msg63799458#msg63799458.

regret will always there when you made a mistakes  and like the other one ? he does not invest
when the right time comes and this is one of our regrets like what I did many times before .
trust me I can adopt to her feeling like what  i felt in the past.

I do agree that regret is not something we should hung up on, just because someone is "late" at the same time, doesn't mean they can't invest later on, if you want to invest then you can invest today as well, or if you want to invest then you can invest in some other time. These are all important stuff and I do agree that it could make people a lot more money.

If you just say "oh I didn't invest back then, shame on me, I regret it" and never invest then what are you gaining from that? Nothing. This is why people should try their very best, like the most investment they could make at that point and stay happy. I do believe that it would benefit everyone to keep doing something like that, it would definitely be amazing.

Knowing quite well that your success becomes a throne of platter of gold to the haters your sensibilities to also know that there are gold digging projectors around the societies and as muche being aware that speculating your source of income would not add any value to your portfolio, then we can always realize that it is meaningless to showcase those wealths we have acquired and ignorant to understand this fact is simple to say that we are being exposed to dangers.

This is quite realistic and if you are promoting it then you should be earning something from promoting it. Like an influencer showing how much money he made could make sense because if he does that then he is getting followers and the more followers he has the more he can charge for ads as well.

I have seen plenty of people with 100k+ followers on twitter that made a lot of money from even a single ad, they were charging more money for one marketing post on their twitter, than I make in an entire year, but of course they are sharing their wealth and success in return of something. If you do not have a reason like that then it would not make any sense to keep doing something like that, it would not be profitable at all.

You have a point as those people do have a reason to reveal their wealth and how they are doing economically to others since they have huge incentives to do it.

Still, this does not change the fact that it is dangerous, because you never really know who is watching, and those posts and videos will live on the internet forever, so given enough time chances are that people that you may not like to watch those videos will do so, and that could be the beginning of a very difficult chapter on the live of those persons.

This has got me to ask, after the bull run and hopefully you hodles your Bitcoin til the ATH and then you have made enough money, are you going to go out there and let those who were in doubt about the profitable potentials of Bitcoin to let them know about your investment in the Bitcoin and how so well you are doing in the industry?

Any one who has access to the Internet must have one way or the other encountered the discussions about Bitcoin because the news is no longer hidden as almost every online platforms both on social platforms, you see people talking about cryptocurrencies so you don't have to show anyone how successful you have become before you persuade them. When you are making progress in life, it is always visible for all to see so anyone who is interested in knowing what you know should be able to come to you for tips and guidelines on how to also become successful like you, don't go about trying to convince anyone to invest in Bitcoin.

This is quite logical because showing off wealth can also invite more dangers that will lurk us over time so it is very bad for anyone to do it. But for people who are famous for their wealth, at this time there are also special guards for this in order to prevent danger from coming to them. However, on this side, I also agree that wealth is not good to show off if we ourselves are still not able to secure it properly, so maintaining a portfolio of wealth and continuing to add to it without many people knowing is quite the right thing for everyone to do.

In the end, it’s still safer to invest secretly and privately. That will make your portfolio richer without other people getting know about it and get jealous eventually. Let’s just accept the reality in order to secure yourself and your wealth, being a show off is always a bad move. It will only put yourself into harm, and you might only attract scammers that are always waiting for their perfect victims.

Some people do it just to show off, I mean how foolish can one be? What's the point of impressing someone with what you have? Just enjoy your life without discussing your finances or financial holdings with anyone, it isn't that difficult, but when you tell everyone about how much you are earning or how much money you have, you are letting them know that you are a potential target in case one wants to commit a crime and get money out of it.

The era we are living in isn't like how things used to be in the past. You can't even trust your blood relatives these days because anyone can do anything for money. So it's not wise to think that the person you are discussing it with is close to you or is someone you trust because no one is trustworthy these days.

There are some people that we can trust but we don't have to give it fully. It is necessary to keep low despite the big achievements that we have in our lives. To remain humble really makes sense in such a way it helps us out from the interest of others. Seeing us useless gives them no reason to think something undesirable. That is why I see some (real) rich people haven't dressed so fancy or have a luxurious life. Now I realize that it is one way of keeping themselves secure.

When we have some friends gatherings, we never discuss how much we earn nor I started to talk about it but rather talk about the past.

There's no harm on being lowkey, it is really just that there are people who do really love of boasting up their earnings or on how much money they do have without even trying out to think on what are the imposed risks
if you would really be that someone whose really that loving on trying out to flex or really that too tactful on how much you have won or make money. Always be considerate when it comes to those potential
risks because not all people would really be that not caring about your money on which there would really be potential that there's someone who would really be having those bad plans into  you.

There's nothing wrong on being low key.It is really just that there are really those individuals who cant really be able to make themselves that silent on the thing
that they are really that  dealing with. Well, its their money then its their right on how they would really be gonna handling themselves but of course there would really be a corresponding risks
level or factor.

[Reid]

I agree with that. I was jealous of a friend for so many times because he successfully HODL'ed a huge chunk of Bitcoin in his wallet while I was selling on that point of time. I was too doubtful and I think many Bitcoin holders did and after a good bull runs the urgency to sell will be there and it's hard to not sell.
My friend though was a pure holder for a long time and now he is sitting somewhere in the globe after withdrawing some of his funds. Now, I am the one trying to do the same thing but he will never know how much it will be as I don't want him to feel the same way as I did. I don't seek revenge, I just want the same experience as he did.

You would really be having that kind of jealousy on the time that you have seen one of your friends having tons of money specially if he had made out some recommendation but turns out that you had just that ignored because you thought that it was some sort of scam.   You would really be just that ending up on having that life time kind of regret and thinking that you should have also done that if you have just
that invested earlier but well whats done is done and cant really be taken back. If you do tend to believe into those early days then you would really be cherishing the profits that you are making.
In speaking about on the money that you have make then it would really be better that you should really be that keeping quiet in regarding about it. Dont tend to boast
up as if this one would really be putting  you on potential danger.

There are some people who are just too vocal, they are vocal about basically everything. It doesn't matter what the topic is, we see a ton of people who are vocal about politics, people who are vocal about sports, people who are vocal about movies and art etc etc.

Well, when that type of person gets into crypto, they are vocal here as well and that's the problem, if they do end up making money they are going to be vocal about that as well. If they do end up losing, then I am sure they are going to be vocal about that as well. Attention is something people seek, not all people but some people desire attention more than others, and they would even lie about it, so they could get attention, that's a characteristic problem they have.

Those people crave attention the same way a drug addict craves to consume their drug of choice, it may seem I am overreacting, but I am not, as I have met many people like that before and they will do anything to get any attention, and the worst thing you could ever do to them is to ignore them.

So if those people want to reveal how much money they have, in which coins they invested and what plans they have for that money, that is on them, since as long as we do not do the same, we will remain unaffected by their actions.

Well I don't go to that same experience, no jealously at all. But I have thought that there could be a lot of holders, when you go and read the forum and that they make a lot of money doing that "simply" HODL mentally.

So I just keep quiet myself, and when we had that lockout in 2020, I started to do that, just HODL and buy during that period and I say that it's very hard in the beginning but I was able to accumulate Bitcoin that I never thought I would.

And I would tend to agree to be lowkey, although I have several talks with some of my friends as well in crypto (they don't have any account here), but I never disclose how much I have or how much I earn and profited during the following bull run.

I also think like that because in living this life there is no need to show off to everyone about what we currently have because that is the main effort that will attract fraudsters who are looking for their next victim. So I still take the option to remain silent and not tell anyone about my investment portfolio in order to avoid bad things that I don't want, because being an investor you also have to be careful and you can't be careless in telling anything to other people. Moreover, if the person is someone we have not known for a long time.

It would be foolish to brag or tell strangers about your investments. If someone did this, I wouldn't be sad for them if they were attacked and they deserve to pay for their stupidity.

Keeping our investments and assets private is one way we are protecting ourselves and our families. But I also need to emphasize this, keeping secrets from strangers is the right thing to do, but keeping secrets from relatives is not necessarily the right decision. If someone is married and even their wife keeps it a secret, it can easily cause a rift in the relationship between husband and wife. Therefore, we need to be flexible in disclosing and keeping secrets from those who should and should not know about our investments.

[Mpamaegbu]

... are you going to go out there and let those who were in doubt about the profitable potentials of Bitcoin to let them know about your investment in the Bitcoin and how so well you are doing in the industry?

It will be childish for those who will want to do that because they will be exposing themselves to unnecessary danger and finger-pointing. Why will anyone go to brag before those who doubted them? If anyone who succeeds with their Bitcoin investment to a nice ROI must do anything loud, it should be for it to reflect on their improved lifestyle. That's the best way to announce it, not flaunting and throwing it in anyone's face. We've to be cautious with whatever we do with our success. There's too much envy out there.

The last point is indeed the most common thing in real life. It's hard to make other people understand the state of our economy, even if you never tell anyone about your wealth in bitcoin, that feeling still exists among people who find it hard to see others happy.

Even friends and family members can't be completely trusted with money, so being private is actually a must-have for anyone holding bitcoin. Not everyone likes other people's happiness, while some feel jealous about it. There is no need to tell anyone about money, proving we are better than them with money is not the right way. Personally I don't like to prove anything to others, it never changes anything.
