You are 13 and have a few years so you need to plan for the possibility that bitcoin prices could crash.

I am uber bullish but you need to only invest would you can afford to lose. A college education is not something you should risk losing.

If you keep your money in bitcoins be sure to work hard in school and make sure that even if you have no money for college that you
can qualify for scholarships because of your good grades.

i've learnt more from youtube, and reading than i have at school.

This is more important than you probably realize.  Remember this when you're about to drop the bucks to attend a fancy college.

In the long run it may very well have been a good investment. I would recommend any (adult) friend to consider buying right now.

Since you are a minor, lectures are not optional:

[lecture]
You should have convinced your parents instead of doing it behind their backs. Would I have been your dad, I would have been mad and proud at the same time. These kinds of decisions are for adults. Period.
[/lecture]

he's gotta start trying to be like an adult sometime Wink
might as well be with Bitcoin!

cheers to you, my friend. my humble slip of advice, think for yourself, think things through to an end, and develop this tendency as soon as you can.

Then you contradict yourself. You say that you like to read books. Your motivation to invest in bitcoins shows that you not only like to read books but you analyse what you read as well. Then you should know that the education is a very good investment.

Where do I start?

Nah, never mind.

I agree with what you didn't say... I've spent the last decade in academia, only to realize that PhDs aren't really worth the paper they're printed on  Wink

You don't need to go to college to become educated. I've been to college for a couple years, got fed up with the system and decided I'm a much better autodidact and can learn everything I need to learn on my own.

In case you are not trolling...

Wow, you are my hero! Smiley

School sucks, later on people just get better at fooling themselves.

Sorry your parents are socialists :/

You will make it big.

its an online savings account, in my name. i have full access to it and there isnt any restrictions. the account was getting decent interest, but hardly anytthing now. the money is just sitting inflating anyway. i follow ron paul and austrian economics. so i know the govt and central bankers are scum for inflating, and burdening young people with debts. i want to make a stand. no point telling my parents, because they are socialists, and tbh they wouldn't understand anyway. Tongue

Damn, kid, when I was 13 I didn't know half the words in that sentence...
You've got balls AND brains.
Go long.

But as others have said, be careful not to go all in. As bullish as I am, Bitcoin is still a speculative investment and you should keep some reserves in stinky fiat.

I'd be curious how being 13 you were able to withdraw from your bank account and buy the bitcoins.

This. I thought most college funds weren't touch-able until you hit a certain age...



On bitcoin price rises: I'm personally bearish and think this recent pop-up over $300 will come crashing down soon. We'll probably see the price consistently rise in the next year though, but I'm not sure about the next 5. Best of luck to you.


On college: If you plan to become some kind of business hot-shot, having a degree in hand gives you a huge leg up. Even if its only for networking opportunities. Just my 2 satoshis. Also, just don't go majoring in liberal arts or some crap that won't actually get you hired.

All i can say is hold on to those bitcoins. And don't gamble them. That would be a terrible idea. Tongue

Just protect the private key.  Last thing you want is to lose the coins based on inability to move them.

Yeah, I hated junior high, but I loved high school and college.  My younger daughter hates junior high right now, but my older daughter loves high school.
How much you want for them? in btc?
