This cant be real 
... or is it real? anyhow... stupid regardless. You should be very careful when it comes to economy and guidance.. especially within crypto where everything is extremely volatile. Oh well, hope your grandma recovers from the dip.. we are down to 3050 $ now

That is exactly why you should NOT:
1) Tell anyone to invest something, this can only result in:
- He makes profit (you were pretty lucky, outcome will be he will say thank you)
- He looses money (he will give you the fault and maby even end friendship, etc.)
--> Don´t tell anyone what to do with their money
2) Tell anyone how great bitcoin is without mentioning that this is only your opinion and that he shall research himselfe before investing anything into it, because even if you don´t directly tell him to invest, he could see you as the guy who brought him to it.

please please don't tell her if now the price going down , please don't give her heartattack 
September 15, 2017, 05:22:24 AM
it will only go up. She bought at $4200 
How soon can we REALISTICALLY see $4200 again and upwards?
Hopefully you explain it to your grandma so thats why you convinced her about this but dont tell that because what someone told you it sounds so annoying but it will go up trust and believe of it.How soon can we REALISTICALLY see $4200 again and upwards?

As of this post i dont think so if this is good if this is real happen and if it is do so why you are telling that because for what someone told you what you have read here i dont think that it is a right idea.
September 15, 2017, 05:04:50 AM
that is not a smart thing to do why did you actually do that your grandma will lose al her money because you clearly dont know how to invest and buy and sell you need to have knowledge first before you can do anything
September 15, 2017, 05:02:03 AM
I do not think that this is a real case. But if all the same it happened, then it's a silly act, from the grandson's side, to do something, because someone said to do it. First of all, you need to learn how to use your own head, and only then, you can give advise to someone, especially relatives.

Who told you to invest solely in Bitcoin? If someone here asked you to do so, then please quote the OP. At least a hundred times I have posted here that the Bitcoin (and the other crypto currency) holdings must be no more than 20% (ideally around 10%) of the total portfolio. And what you did? You ruined your grandma, by forcing her to invest her entire savings in Bitcoin. It is not our fault, and it is not her fault. The best thing for you to do may be to reimburse her of her losses.

The price will recover & she will see profits again, I hope she's not too old though & can hang on for a year or so

im hope your granma didnt get a heart attack..lol.. what a joke. just how old are you kid???
i think this is the right reaction to this post because why did you do that you invest when you know about something not if other people tell you to do it and that is why you wont make it far because even if you invested you dont know what to do with it. September 15, 2017, 04:41:27 AM

woww seriously !! ALL HER LIFE SAVINGS ON BITCOIN
That is a very risky and bad advise. Bitcoin is a very volatile currency. She should not have put more than 30% in it .Don't worry, btc will bounce back and once it does, I advise her to remove up to 70% of her funds off btc and invest it physically

While it's pretty clear at this point that this is a joke, there was a video floating around for a long time of a guy on one of those financial network shows, during the height of the DotCom bubble of 2000, saying something like "I just moved my mom's retirement funds to tech stocks, I know it's risky, but these are going nowhere but up!" (I paraphrase, it's been a while)
Finally, a voice of reason. This behavior happens at the end of everybull market and I am old enough to remember the old ETrade commercials
during the super bowl and how insane people got about technology & internet
stocks back then. And I've seen a lot of the same insanity here on bct, too.
I don't believe this guy's story about grandma though. But I don't doubt there
are cases where people have been led astray by overzealous bitcoin bulls.

Nothing is sure in this world so becareful in everything that you do,How soon can we REALISTICALLY see $4200 again and upwards?
You shouldn't believe in everything that you heard or read.

It will go back up, but the real question is when? It may be in a week or a month but just remember that Bitcoin will always go down and up. How long can you HODL your Bitcoin during the down trend. Don't be a weak hand and fall into FUD

well dont give advise to people to invest their savings. Just advise them to put their extra money to put in so they dont get mad at u in case of small losses.
