So my wife and I argued last night, because I want to try a year of using whatever I would put into a 401k to buy bitcoins instead.
After much debate, she agreed, but do y'all think I'm stupid for doing so? Now obviously there are pros/cons to both. I think bitcoin still has a lot of potential. I was putting 4% into 401k, and my employer matched 50$ of that (for a total of 6% going into 401k). So I'll lose 2%, and it'll be after taxes.
On the other hand, if bitcoins grow like they have over the past year, I'd be retarded not to do it. *sigh*
How many of you have moved away from standard investments into bitcoin? Or I could drop my allocation some (maybe 3%) and then put 1% into bitcoins? MOney is tight at the moment, so I can't add extra... I'm just going to use what already is being taken out.
