This high-school dropout who invested in bitcoin at $12 is now a millionaire at 18 This high-school dropout who invested in bitcoin at $12 is now a millionaire at 18, 6:20 PM ET Tue, 20 June 2017 | 00:39 Erik Finman made a bet with his parents that if he turned 18 and was a millionaire, they wouldn't force him to go to college. Thanks to his savvy investments in bitcoin and the current all-time high valuation, he won't have to get his degree. "I can proudly say I made it, and I'm not going to college," Finman said.
Being on this forum is an interesting way to learn about the community involved in Bitcoin.
Several things are extremely clear from having been here for many months.
Of course there are some exception, but the vast majority of Bitcoin investors/fans in here are:
- Illogical
- Extremely poorly educated about finances
- No absolutely nothing about the business world
- Purely driven by emotions and a hope to get rich quick
Responses generated in here generally reflect the above elements as well.
The same pattern is emerging every time though - extreme anger is directed at any criticism towards Bitcoin.
In that sense, observations in here also clearly show that Bitcoin can much better be described as a cult. In irrational belief in something rational thinking beings know can not end well.
