Learning an valued skill however, will certainly make you richer, but this also means that you have to give more effort, then to just buy coin and sit on your ass.
The old advice of work harder to get richer! So full of bullshit it is ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It is needed to keep slaves in shape, though. But unfortunately, that's not how the world works. Yeah, some of the richest people may have worked hard, but the reverse assumption is absolutely false - go to central africa to witness millions of people working extremely hard for cents per day; their prospects of becoming "rich" in western understanding of the term? zero. their only hope is to work extra hard to die from fatigue rather than hunger, that's the choice most (90+%) of the people on this planet have to make. So back to sitting on ass all day getting rich - definitely, not the shortest route to success, but it works at least as often as hardworking. The only downside is, if it does not work out, you are very fucked; while with work, you can continue surviving on your minimal wage... Starter homes in my area start at $1 million "Son go to law school and this crack shack will be yours after 30 years" ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It's not a question about being rich but not being some indentured slave who is constantly living on the edge and yet that describes most people in our society (even in prosperous countries).

This is a sarcastic post and you all answer normally ? lol The poster is only want you to recognize that many of you are in the same situation(of course he is not) that you buy at near the ATH and fucked up. Yeah a loser from a small town in Croatia, who can lose max. 1000-5000 EUR and whining here , but the loser is very good at English and registered to this forum last day. 1 year left and there was no questions in their head to ask here what to do. But yesterday was the day ... Are you kidding me to believe in such stories with such sarcasm? ...should i sell everything now or wait for another dead cat bounce? Will there be another fake recovery or 350s are thing of the past?
falling are you back again? I think who use the "dead cat bounce", "fake recovery" terms is not a newbie on this forum . +1 and keep answering (sorry for your loss, sorry to hear that), now i can understand why bitcoin is in this state , this forum (and so many bitcoiners) is full of complete idiots ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) can't see the forest for the trees

Before the civil war, 2/3rd of the homes in Syria were illegally constructed and a lot of these homes were very sturdy and beautiful. Homeless in the sense of people living on a cold paved sidewalk is something that only exists in the first world. Homeless people everywhere just build their own homes.

Syria before the civil war had a higher income per capita than a second world country like Ukraine. Really you are a moron. There's nothing right about the artificially inflated real estate in the first world -especially when those properties only decades ago were bought with the equivalent of a few years' salary

So back to sitting on ass all day getting rich - definitely, not the shortest route to success, but it works at least as often as hardworking. The only downside is, if it does not work out, you are very fucked; while with work, you can continue surviving on your minimal wage... Spoken like a true bitcoiner - impractical and naive. Most of the people get rich with hard work, only leaving out heirs and lottery winners. Even criminals work hard, although their hard work mostly involves facing the mirror. In central Africa, skilled specialists are highly valued. The lack of properly educated workforce among the local population, is the thing that creates even higher demand for specialists. The problem with central Africa is the lack of educational opportunities. Even if people have the will for success, then rarely they will have the means for success. This isn't a problem in western countries, where education is valued higher and there are more opportunities to apply oneself, even if you come from a poor background. Educational choices are often the first choices that a person makes, that will turn him into a loser. Already in youth, some people value obtaining knowledge and some people like to play video games, hang out at the mall, drink beer etc. Some people will choose the road of higher education, where they can build a foundation in obtaining a valued skill, but others see it as too hard work them, and they choose a job that doesn't need any special skills. And yes, there also are people who are talented enough to obtain a valued skill without the need of education, but in my experience, the amount of those is similar in becoming a lottery winner. You need to be needed to become rich, and you aren't needed, if you can't offer anything. You can offer security, and become a thug or a military officer. You can offer illusions, and become a bitcoin salesman or a politician. Or you can offer your knowledge and experience, and become an entrepreneur in it's proper form. Or.. you can also be the one, who needs others more, then others need him. Because that's exactly what you are, if you aren't professionally skilled in the modern world. Then you are like a grown up baby, who has to be nurtured by the society, that has been built by people who build things.

The cool thing about year long price decline in BTC is that it seems to have brought the somethingawful goons back. I've not seen them since 100x my profits ago (late 2011-ish) and I miss the bastards.
My advice: Sell while you can still afford a vasectomy. I mean, it's not impossible that you could get lucky one day.

Come on man - this has to be a spoof - who the fuck would pay for a 50 year old prostitute ? If he is legit I reckon he could be in for a refund under the 1979 Sale of Goods Act - "goods must be as described, satisfactory quality and fit for purpose" - put the Croation refund fiat back into btc - cost average down etc - this could all work out for the best in the long run IMHO.

Someone who could not afford a young one. I expect the old ones have to charge less than the young ones. I think it's a spoof too though.

I'm 30 years old and I live in a small town in coastal Croatia. Through entire life I've been a loser, I was doing bad in school, teachers said I was just slow, others called me stupid. I was horrible in sports, most boys around here played basketball, but I am very short (166cm) and have bad motor skills. I never had success with women, girls were avoiding me like a plague, others that didn't were laughing at me and bullying me. At age 21 I realized I'm too much of a loser to ever get laid so i decided to lose virginity with a local hooker who was 50 years old at the time. Also it felt a bit weird because I knew she had the same surname as me, but that's not uncommon in small towns. I think we're not related, at least not closely. Never went to college, unemployed, living with my parents. I spent most of my time drinking and playing video games. When I walk down the street I feel like entire town is laughing at me. Other people of my age already made their careers live in bigger cities, travel the world, have a lot of friends, family and I'm a laughing stock.
But one evening in November 2013 when I was surfing the internet and first heard about bitcoin I had a revelation. I thought this is it. My time has finally come. The more I was reading about it, the more i was certain this is a next big thing and that I, as someone who has found so early about it, become filthy rich. That I was finally become somebody. I invested all my savings from pocket money my mom was giving me over the years. I was so happy and proud of myself for being a part of making history. I bought most of my bitcoins on average of $950. At first as corrections happened I thought it is normal part of developing, but now as almost a year has passed and bitcoin is in a continual downtrend i started to realize I was conned by guys like Max Keiser and early adopters who were promising bitcoin will go up, but actually they were just pumping the price so they can cash out at higher price. Now I'm very sad and desperate, and don't know what to do. I still hope it will magically go up but honestly don't believe it is possible. Bitcoin has already gone mainstream, everyone has heard of it, yet price is not recovering. I think it's time give up and try to preserve what is left of my savings. I'm giving up on bitcoin and dreams of being rich. Once a loser, always a loser.

Forget about bitcoin for a moment, the real problem is at the source, your negative mindset and personal values is what's screwed up man. The more I was reading about it, the more i was certain this is a next big thing and that I, as someone who has found so early about it, become filthy rich. That I was finally become somebody.
That's the part that's problematic. It doesn't sound like you are in financial ruin, so bitcoin or other investments are the last thing you gotta think about right now. Think about fixing your life and values first (is becoming "filthy rich" your greatest inspiration? Is it what is really going to fully give you satisfaction and fulfillment long term?), get professional help maybe if you have such a low self esteem. Try to get a job. If we are not talking about a big amount of money, just either sell all or keep it there but simply forget about it for the moment, and return when your life will be more stable and complete and when you won't rely on a single superficial goal to give you what you are truly looking for. Right now this thing is just toxic for you IMHO. Couldn't agree more. Well said. Hit the source, not the symptoms.

Good point. That's not a some shithole. Actually there are millions of tourists every year. This is almost certainly a sarcastic post. He's telling bag holders right in their face they're losers and they don't even see it.

Your story is pretty sad to read my friend.But let me tell a few things... 1. You should give a f*** what others think about you. 2. HOLD your coins! No one knows what will be in next months or years.HOLD! To sell right now is stupid is my guess 3. A nice quote which I always say to myself everyday is "no matter how bad it is, no matter how bad it gets.I'm going to make it!!!" Believe in yourself mate.Sure life is tough.But when you tumble, always try to get up!
