For whatever reason I read that entire Forbes nonsense.........
Short answer, Time Management.
All they’re going to do is buy a pile of Bitcoins and then sit on them until they’re worth more. And that’s something that you can do just as well as they can: thus it makes no sense at all to be paying them fees for doing it.
Yep, it's funny the people who write about bitcoin who have no idea what they are talking about. Yet, they write as if they are the ultimate knowledge source. In my situation, it makes sense to learn how to secure my bitcoins properly and buy and sell them on some of the not so user friendly exchanges. However, this is not a simple process, particularly the security aspect. And to some, it is likely impossible for them to really understand it, at least at this point in time. Therefore, if you want to invest in bitcoin without spending countless hours studying its depths and vulnerabilities, it would make sense to pay a 2% fee.
I'd like to see Tim Worstall beef up a wallet with millions of dollars of bitcoins and secure it all by his proud self.
