The last time I bothered anyone into buying Bitcoin — and I mean “risk an uncomfortable type of conversation” — it was my younger brother.
I don’t really see my immediate family except on certain holidays, because I’m a transplant, so I visit them out of state when possible. However, as some readers may know from personal experience, having a visiting Bitcoiner family member at the dinner table can be… interesting. A challenge, perhaps. Maybe kind of stressful sometimes.
In fact, check out the popular “Bitcoin Lingo” vocabulary guide printed in The Daily Record on November 3, 2024, which I wrote to try and smooth things over for all of us.
After a few visits at Thanksgiving after my introduction to Bitcoin and initial trips down the learning rabbit hole, you could say my family knew I was “passionate” about it — wanting to get involved and wanting to overcome the slightest provocation.
But I’m not pushy. I am more of a teacher than an evangelist. I’ll tell you everything I think you need to know about a topic to make the right decision for you, and then I’m done. Do what you want. I get satisfaction by presenting the message in all its glory, yet I’m still somewhat disconnected from the results.
I can tell you what colors they come in and more about the extended warranty they’ll be working on probably Need to know ever. I can tell you where the beef is sourced, what I eat it, what wine pairs best with it and why — even how many calories each dessert on the tray contains. But I won’t lie, or even joke, that calories “don’t count on weekends,” just to close the sale.
But if I’m “full” I can make dessert “to go”. This isn’t pushy, it’s just useful information, right?
I won’t back down from politics or religion either, between friends and with permission to “speak frankly,” but at the end of the day I’m here to inform, not to convert. To show light, but not burn you with it.
However, it is sometimes difficult to watch close friends and family miss out. Call it sinking or burning, whatever; It’s just hard to watch.

Sometimes, you need to get a little push on the things that really matter. Well, whether we are needs To or not, sometimes we do it anyway.
Do with this information what you will, Roswell, but at $100,000 Bitcoin now serves as our base, I am giving you the same message I gave my brother in the first touch, because I was sure he had more zeros still to add. And in my humble opinion, it still is.
No financial advice – advice of brotherly love.

Hey, Bitcoin breaks $8,000 this week. You remember how she recently told you that she went from $4 to $5,000 in one day?
It is now entering a period of massive storms. Everyone in the industry knows that. So this is my personal recommendation and the official BEST for once only. Now – as in now, this week – is a good time to buy 1/10 of a Bitcoin if you can afford it (about $800) or set up an automatically recurring $100 weekly Until you get there.
This is the email you’ll be working on and breaking things 5 years from now if ignored, haha.
there Lots of news articles I could send you, but you wouldn’t read them. But with Fidelity now being offered to HNW clients, mainstream money is starting to flow in a big way, and it won’t stop until it dies. All of these big companies and names make people feel safe that Bitcoin/cryptocurrencies are in fact the future and feel that they are safe enough and regulated enough to invest in them. There are dozens of other points I could make but won’t.
I posted this video to a 16,000 member group (Facebook) that I runand Nevertheless – It makes a decent argument for having either 0.28 or 1/10 while one still can. No noise, dull sound. You don’t have to watch just play in the background while you drive if you don’t have time now. (YouTube video, “How Many Bitcoins Should You Own?” from “The Modern Investor” from YouTube, May, 2019.)
Now is the time, though. Even start with $25 a week now if you have to. 2019 and 2020 will see parabolic curves in price. You probably won’t be able to afford 1/10 or 1/4 of BTC after 2021.
Well, this is the only time I’ll get bored.
Love you and welcome Missus!
