The difference between me and you reptiela is i couldn't care less about money really.
I don't value money highly to put simply.
I don't want it *enough* to do the work to get lot's of it.
Risto if you are the guy that made that money then prop's to you.. then i am impressed good job !
I wonder what guys like you risto would do if you were homeless with out a penny.
I've been there and i win.. i ALWAYS win !
That's the hard thing in open internet conversation - it is either not open, or you need to let trolls in.
I think Mircea Popescu used to be the most hated person in the forum, but for years already it has been me. I don't know of anyone with comparable amount of personal slander (it's OK to elucidate me with proof if you know another, after all some claim my grandeur to be delusion ).
I have 5,000+ posts and it's ok to check, money is mentioned quite a few times for the reason that this is a money forum, and my academic field is Economics (major) and that is also my interest and my profession! And yeah, it is very much self-made - I hardly had 100k when the government came to confiscate it the first time in 2008. Then they claimed me to be criminal. It was changed to "insane" much later (after several attempts of criminal proceedings had failed to destroy my businesses, a nationwide "sex scandal" was plotted and later these other things - as a result my businesses died, I gave up even trying to work for money in that country, and also relocated).
For those who wonder, let me repeat my words to the 8 armed government goons in my little apartment in 2008-9-19 early in the morning: "I just want to notify you all in the very beginning that I consider the root cause of this action against me to be that I am a human rights activist."
That was before bitcoin existed.
It'd be nice to continue from the original topic, and now it becomes possible from a new self-moderated thread if anyone still cares.
