The car is not a good asset at all that extremely loses value with time. It would better be Ethereum that has potential that could be traded or speculated since the car will only drain money.

You are right, car is not an investment, lose value everyday. It can not make you rich or can give you a comfortable life. Just transportation.

Can you be rich just with buying ETH? Yes you can be. It can be very good investment tool. But the important point is when and for what price did you buy the ETH. If you bought it from 1400 K and still holding it than god bless you.

If you bought it below 100 USD after the big crush it is OK.

With ETH 2.0 at the beginning of 2020, we can see different price levels at ETH.

Yes, car is not investment, excepting case when you buy it to earn money (taxi, transporting etc).
Hah, I know people who bought BTC for 15k and ETH about 1k. They still hold and pray for God, so price get back at least to buy level))

it is easy for BTC to return at the price of 15K USD, but ethereum will be quite difficult to return at the price of 1K USD, Ethereum tried several times to get up, but fell again. I hope there is a miracle for Ethereum to reach $ 1K USD this year or next year

Funny seeing this now after a year and after ETH's value has nose dived.

In this scenario, you'd obviously you'd have been better off with a car. Too bad for your girlfriend now, but just hodl and wait and maybe we'll see if the car can be turned into a lambo. Hopefully by next year when ETH goes to proof-of-stake you'll have your redemption. 🚗

Good of you,
After all she is your girl friend not mine, probably you even bought it for her and she will gladly hand it over to you if she knows you bought it from cypto trade . With time you will thank God you did. Ethereum is coming higher.

Funny dude @ my bolded in your sentence as quoted. Anyway, he made a very dicey choice with ETH. I don't trust that coin that much to put my money on it. It's just like ripple. But with Bitcoin, I can buy and hodl even when the price goes momentarily crashing I don't panic because I know it will certainly rise again. Bitcoin is a sure bet.

maybe both of them already have an agreement so they dare to bear the risk. I think the decision he made was correct, if indeed he intended to invest the money obtained from the sale of the car to be used as a long-term investment. because he believes ethereum is not an altcoin type that is easy to lose its value, although lately the price movement has not experienced a sharper increase, but in the future he will definitely be satisfied with the investment he made after getting a large profit

Although, this issue have been talk about long ago but the "good of you" you said draw my attention because there are better of doing things rather than selling ones girlfriend car out of greed because anyone who invest in crypto through loan, selling girlfriend car definitely won't invest the amount he can afford to lost.

Many of you say i am crazy or stupid and i should be shaking right now... but you are very wrong.. in fact, I am absolutely not nervous or worried. if you read my later posts, you will find i invested my ETH on 4 altcoins, and the value in ETH (not in US$) didnt changed much for these coins. Anyway, i assume risks and consequences. ANd the big difference among us, is i am not a mercenary like many of you, that just followed the hype.. i am talking about them who are here for few fast bucks, .. i am different because i am for the longterm as i BELIEVE in blockchain.. and i didnt took this decision as if i was blind or stupid! I did my propper research long time ago, and strongly think crypto will be a standard in the future.. maybe not tomorrow, or next week, or month.. also not next year.. i am not in a hurry! i think i got everything i need to live...it took most of my life to realize material things wont make me happier.. i dont need much anymore because i found i was already happy Grin

.. I am not interested about lambos, mansions,... I am more interested in a more fair world for everyone. The big fishes (venture capital, banks...) have their profits being cutted, and this makes me really happy! Our life quality will improve in the longterm.. almost everything will be public, transparent and fair...

I think you are too rash to make the decision to sell your girlfriend's car, just to invest and buy some eth in exchange if later the investment you are successful and get a profit you and your girlfriend can have fun and enjoy it, but you must remember if there are two big risks that you have to face if you experience a loss in investing, besides you must be prepared to lose money and you also have to be ready to be decided by your girlfriend and find a new girls friend.

The decision you take is really smart, though for some people it would be a reckless action.
Why I say smart ,the first reason the prospect of crypto is really promising especially for long-term investment.
The second reason car prices will continue to shrink if stored, while crypto is likely to increase in value.
The third reason if there is a loss, for example maybe the ETH coin goes down at least not too worried
this is not your car (i'm just kidding dude). Tongue

Until 2028 ? Wow It is a very long time to hold a token. Can you explain to us what tokens/coins you bought and made as your long-term investment assets? Maybe we can follow the steps you take. I just told you not to choose the wrong coin, Investing with the wrong coin/token is a very risky for your assets.

actually, if he really sold his girlfriend's car, and still holds ethereum to this day, I think he passed the train several times. as far as I know, ethereum prices on November 14, 2018 are around $ 160. if he had sold the asset at $ 240- $ 350, he had already made a small profit. however, if one of the other 4 coins is bitcoin, I think he has already made a very large profit. as we know that the price of bitcoin at the end of the year is around $ 3k - $ 4k. if he buys some bitcoin at the time, that is a good and brave choice.

And do you think this person has guts to wait even they experience lost. This person might be affraid to lose more then sell ETH rightaway after experiencing some lost. It will all depend how long this persons believe in crypto but i wish this guy will not sold it at lost.

That's a big risk though. By selling the car, you already know that you can loose that amount of money when you put it and invest it in crypto. Make sure to put more effort in the trading, the amount of your money would not matter if you dont work hard to make it bigger. As of now, prices are not that high to gain enough profit.

In my opinion, this is a very crazy and ridiculous idea because it is very risky if you sell a car just to buy more ETH, if you don't understand speculation about a good ETH selling price, I think this is a big problem because you will get a loss for this, but if you understand price speculation, this is the right way for you, compared to borrowing from a bank just to buy more ETH I think you are more than crazy and silly. Cheesy

As the OP said tha he is into Long term then I guest he did a good decision since the price whe he bought is around $95 and now see its price. Maybe their car is not useful enough for them, they might have some reason, I hope he's still holding their ETH now so they already gain profit now.

Good for you. I bet at $1400 a lot of people thought it was too late. But when price started to drop and around $400 I was even convinced that the project was actually headed in a direction I liked, I went it. So I guess I'm "crying" now according to most people but I think I'm happy where I am. Ethereum 2.0 on its way, loads of things to look forward to!

But your decision has now failed. The value of ETH has now decreased by a lot compared to the end of 2018. I believe that in the next few years, the market will remain the same price as more and more investors are leaving the market. because of the whale's intolerance. You should really review your portfolio before the worst happens.

with the advent of Uber and Lyft, the existence of private cars came in handy. in a market like this, it is very difficult to produce Ethereum, but if he becomes an uber or Lyft driver he can collect monthly money to buy Ethereum or other coins... My friend is a Grab driver (driver application in Southeast Asia) and he is setting aside $ 150 / month to invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash, at the moment his assets are more than mine.

Being practical and doing your research regarding how the market will turn against you, there are instances that if you fully believe with your judgement and you are willing to take all the responsibilities after taking the risk. Investment is all about how you deal with future outcome. Whether things favor your side or failed you, you should have the right attitude on how to face realities. Investment takes time. Those who are willing to wait patiently will witness and achieve success that they deserve.

You are really funny mate, but it seems you have chosen not the right coin. BTC has done much better and made at least 3x science 2018. ETH must do something, because if price would not go up, people would start getting disappointed.

It seems that the choice was not so bad .. The price of Ethereum has fallen much more than the price of Bitcoin, which is why in my opinion it has much more growth potential and a much bigger increase in %. If OP has still not sold his ETH, I am sure that he will enjoy the profit soon..

The OPs choice is not bad. As low as the cryptocurrency market is at the moment, he still has his capital in eth more or less. One thing I picked from his investment is also the fact that he bought the Ethereum at very low rate. 2028 is still a far year from now but cryptocurrency has a bright future and so is Ethereum, so it's a win win for the OP

OP could be very successful, however only in case if Ethereum will not stop it's developing. There are a lot of new projects with good prospectives, and probably some of them could be more useful for crypto industry in future.
So I think author should watch on market all the time to not pass better opportunities.
