. $1500, still enough for r/t tickets to Tokyo with some $400 - $500 over, so I'm happy with that, as that was my goal.

So I sold everything off, I couldn't take it anymore . $1500, still enough for r/t tickets to Tokyo with some $400 - $500 over, so I'm happy with that, as that was my goal.

Oh would you look at that, I didn't even have to wait a lot 
. Honestly I didn't think it would work out

How about you sit on the $320 worth of BTC for 2,5 years. After then you'll be able to afford the flight.
If bitcoin continues to rise and doesn't crash yeah, but unfortunately I myself don't think it'll rise that high. BTC would need to reach $126/BTC for that. I got bored of bitcoin when it crashed down to $3 back in 2011, it bugs me to this day lol. Should have bought a lot....
@galaxyAbstractor
I think it might be possible to design one or few Bitcoin accepted services for you. Sweden has it's potential for doing Bitcoin related startups/business. You can earing some Bitcoin while helping peoples by providing these services.
Please PM me if you want to discuss more details.

Get a job, seriously it's guaranteed to work.
If you want a real mission, make it to Japan without flying. You have 2.5 years right

It's only triple. 2,5 years. That's totally possible. You can work and squirrel away a bit of money to help supplement this endeavor.
What you could do is to have a part time job, then save 25% in bitcoin and the rest in your bank account. Coming 2.5 years in the future, you should have plenty of enough money.
Thought of that but the job market for people my age isn't really bright here if you don't have a complete college education, a drivers license and/or car. I also rather not have a job at the side of my studies as our schedule is different each week, I'm afraid it would be hard to fit work and college together and still have enough time for college. I'm trying to get something for the summer though but I haven't had any luck the past two summers :<
Get you - could you do some work online ? Do you have skills for coding/design or something like that ? What's your age? What about gas stations, going with the news paper and stuff like that ? Even a job that only happened once or twice a week would be great, like helping out in a store every saturday or something like that.
Yeah I'm a web dev, but unfortunately I lack confidence in myself when it comes to coding, but I'm trying to change that :>. Coding projects take some effort tho I could believe and I don't think a company would want to hire someone they know would quit in a month would they? I could only think that would be a waste of time, as I would have to spend time getting into their code and by that time I might only have little time left
. I'm 20, btwtry freelancer.com or rentacoder.com. Your skills will improve over time.

Of course you can do it. You have to be smart, though. And don't waste valuable time. As in NOW. What I mean is, with the BTC increasing in an almost linear trend, you should acquire as many as you can as soon as you can. I myself am even thinking about buying them with cash!
I don't know if you ever look at the "Goods" section on this forum, but commerce is down-likely because the BTC is up and keeps increasing.
I'm sorry I don't know what kind of service/good to offer, but consider that fact. People aren't buying BTC keychains (at least not with BTC) even if they're cheap, because .1 BTC today could be worth double tomorrow.
SO, think about a service/good that people NEED and cannot live without. Some kind of service to buy groceries, gas, etc w/BTC would be profitable, I believe. I hope I've provided some insight for you.

How about not turning your dream into a gimmick? 
Me and a couple of friends are dreaming about visiting Japan after we've finished college (1.5 years left for 2 of us, 2.5 for 1). I was thinking it would be awesome if I could pay for the trip, or at least the flight tickets, with bitcoin (not necessarily directly, but you get it, I'll exchange to USD to buy). Currently cheapest roundtrip flight tickets from Stockholm, Sweden to Tokyo, Japan in June and back in July is about USD1100.
So what I need is a plan on how to successfully do this. I've been selling some stuff I got but that wont really get me anywhere because I'm already out of stuff that's worth selling. I've thought of starting some sort of company selling domains and web services for bitcoins but now that namecheap accepts bitcoins there is no point to that, I don't think I would be able to compete with them (not to mention the investment you need to start a company).
What do you think? Ideas? Do you think I will make it or not? I got about 2.5 years to complete this mission haha
So far, I got about $320 worth of bitcoins from selling stuff and mining. I do have other savings too but it feels like a bad idea to burn all that right after college instead of saving them and use them for rent etc.
