Someone will start to trust us when we show established success. but if we invite someone to follow us even though we haven't found success then it's normal if someone doubts us and even belittles us.

that's why I prefer not to talk too much. I prefer to do more and prove it myself. because if we are successful then people will follow us automatically without us having to invite them first.

and when someone asks for help or advice, it will be wiser if we continue to help and provide advice, but on condition that we are indeed able to help and provide advice that will not be misleading. if it's family or friends then we can help them even though they may have hurt our feelings but of course we don't want to hurt their feelings back. because we know how it feels like a pain that we feel when our heart hurts.

I was once in your position, when I believed Bitcoin was a potential digital asset while others said that Bitcoin was a scam, but fortunately at that time my parents still supported me, even though they advised me not to spend too much money to invest in Bitcoin, but I think that's pretty good advice.

Finally, people who were skeptical of Bitcoin before are now asking me for advice, and I complied by recommending good exchanges and crypto learning websites. But unlike you, I don't give/lend them money, I don't think it's necessary because it's their problem not mine, first they never lend me money so why am I being too kind to them.

Once a man, twice a child!
Today, I now own a home and a nice ride, I was able to get married and settle down, but now they feel like they made a huge mistake for not listening to me.
You're lucky to have come from a country where such recorded short time successes aren't attributed to have come from crime or fraud. In my country, those friends of yours would even accuse you of indulging internet fraud because most of them are cynics who can't comprehend that one can make it big in crypto. I've a similar experience to yours.

would you help your discouraging friends if you are in my shoe?
Well, I would teach them but I would be charging them a fee for that since they rejected it the first time which I would've given it for free.

People may not believe in your dreams but as for you who knows what you are doing, you don't need to be discouraged with whatever they are saying. Always be focused on your goals and achievement whenever it has come to reality they will be the ones to call you again for help and assistance. One thing you must know is that anyone who sees you with laptop may not understand the kind of job you are doing, many may take you for fraudster who always seat at home scamming people, so it's better to stay away from people, hide yourself and focused your business.

Lastly, you need to help them because they are your family and friends, right now what I expected you to do is to explain your business to them so that they will understand you more better.
Forget other people and stick to your dreams. If you believe you can achieve your dream, keep doing it and don't give up even though the situation may be difficult. Only those who can strive beyond others will succeed and achieve their desired success, while others will only stop halfway and despair. Just let other people think it's impossible to do and that they might underestimate what you do because they don't know how to do it. And I agree to help your family and close friends, especially those who want to know how you work and can make money.
The thing is there’s no need to get discouraged if you know exactly what you are doing, and that you have high hopes that eventually you’ll succeed in the end. Just trust the process and never lost hope, after all your family and friends who became unsupportive that time are the reason why you became so motivated to pursue your investment so that you can prove to them later on that they’re wrong in their prediction. So instead of hating and turning your back to them, be thankful instead and never hesitate to still help him as they are still your family and friends.

I spent five years away from friends and family, because whenever I bring up how crypto can be life-changing they always discourage me, maybe because I lost some money to few trades and I was not that good at trading at the time, I got mad one day and I left the city and move to another city, because they won't let me be and they felt I will waste my life away.

Today, I now own a home and a nice ride, I was able to get married and settle down, but now they feel like they made a huge mistake for not listening to me. I believe this was the best decision I've ever made, I was able to gathered some BTC in 2019  to 2020 bear market and also with the help of my trading skills.

Only God knows what would have happened if I never left, my mind kept telling me to venture into crypto at the time and even my own family shut the idea down.

I don't know why and now they are asking for my help, I have to do it since they are my family, and even my friends are asking for help, would you help your discouraging friends if you are in my shoe? They were my friends, but not anymore, I believe friends should be supportive of each other, am I wrong.

If you are a crypto newbie, make sure you set your mind on your goals, do not be discouraged by anyone, people can't see the future, we are not gods or demigods who can read the future, do not listen to any naysayers.

if you're in a good position and you think you can support them in any way, it's best you do it, not because the are or were your friends but because we rise by lifting others and we aren't supposed to be nice to people because the where there for us.
I believe your family and friends didn't mean to discourage you in any way, perhaps the didn't trust the process and just wanted the best for you.

Treat them well please.

No matter how mad you are, how angry you are, your friends and family has a part in your life because you can't made decision or plan if you have no friends or family who has on your side. They think it's a waste because they don't know what the cryptos are, So the best that he can do is forgive them and try to connect again with your family and friends, be good with them

It can be tough to pursue your dreams while facing lack of support from loved ones. However, your perseverance and hard work have paid off, and it's impressive how well things have turned out for you. Taking risks and forging a less-traveled path can be challenging, but you've proven yourself and made it happen. It's great to hear that luck has also played a role in your journey.

When it comes to helping your discouraging friends, it's important to prioritize your own financial stability and set healthy boundaries. It's okay to politely decline or offer guidance without taking on undue responsibility.

Remember to stay focused on your goals, surround yourself with a supportive community, and continue to follow your passion for crypto. You're not alone, and many others have faced similar challenges. Stay true to yourself and believe in your vision for the future. Cheers!

Indeed, sometimes there are conditions like this, where family or friends who are supposed to provide support for those of us who are down actually making things worse, blame us, and also berate us for our condition at certain times. And this, to be honest, often happens when we are in trouble, they leave, while they will come again when we are successful. And they seem to be people who have a big contribution to our success. I really understand your feelings, feelings of disappointment and hatred, but on the other hand, they are your family. I think it's only natural if you are angry and don't want to help them, especially those who claim to be friends. Ignore it. But if it's family, help naturally, because it's not certain that they will always remember or thank us for our help.

I got mad one day and I left the city and move to another city, because they won't let me be and they felt I will waste my life away.
I just can imagine how much confidence you have on yourself like if my parents told me something i could not do, i make a Stagnant mind and will not even give it a try. But you are on another level sir. Really appreciate your journey and the moves you made. Like left city can't even imagine doing. Well, i think that also depends on the resources too, to leave home and go somewhere.

I would love to know how you managed all this, like when you left home, how much money did you have back then and how did you make such money to buy a home, ride, and earn a wife (with respect and trust) like really bro. I am in crypto in my 3rd year and only bought a phone and managed my study expenses plus household expenses (only a few times). But never imagined of getting a new house and ride but love to do that. If you could teach me (i know it's up to you but your story has blown me away.

If you are a crypto newbie, make sure you set your mind on your goals, do not be discouraged by anyone, people can't see the future, we are not gods or demigods who can read the future, do not listen to any naysayers.
The funny thing is no one discouraged me as your parents and friends did, but still, i am afraid of many things like due to less knowledge (of trading). And i will follow your tip to make a progressive mindset actually in the start i set up my mind to earning only $1k per year ( i know that's too low) but i was ok and tend to make efforts as i have no investment. I did future trading and lost the investment that i saved from my scholarship. So from then to now, i did not get a chance to trade but now i will make some extra money and try to earn more.

Nothing lasts forever
I am not sure if what I am gonna say is making sense to you or the one reading this post but here's what I feel about this situation.
So OP is doing good "currently" and is well settled. But that doesn't mean it's all gonna be rainbow and sunshine all the time.
We can't really say how long the profits will sustain and so OP has to be prepared for that.
Coming to family and friends asking for help then as a human being OP should definitely support his family and friends.
But at the same time, we must know that if things don't go right then they might come back at OP because it didn't workout well for them.
Some might even go to an extent of blaming OP for not supporting at will and misguiding them and making them lose money.
So OP has to make sure they are investing at their own risk and be wise enough to handle the situation if arises.

I hope you see it that your family and friends mean well by warning you of online investments. There's a proverb in my local dialect that says it's only the person that loves you that will tell you that your mouth is smelling. They loved you so much that they warned you and you took the risk and it paid off. So, you shouldn't have grudges with them but rather thank God that you have loving people around you.

You just explain how a normal family function, first they laughed at you and discouraged you from chasing after your dreams and when you listen to them and fail you get laughed at again but if you held strong and chase that dream as you did, you become successful then they start coming closed still you shouldn't pay them back with evil because they were just looking out for you. They didn't want you to take risk because some of them did and failed. They wanted you to take the easiest route to what they call been successful which is securing a job and waiting on salary then become a slave for money.

Families don't support dreams but strangers do, which is why we're advice to consider those strangers we meet daily as our key to success and not our family. Still though family is everything, don't turn your back on them as at the end of the day all we're doing is trying to secure the bag so we can give a good life to our family members and that extends to our extebded family like uncles and nieces etc. Turning back on your family when you have finally made it could cost you more than you imagined so it's best you embrace them but don't give them too much access into your life or they'll start all over again, that's just family.

Op what happened to you is a normal irony of life,most people will never support your little beginning unless they start seeing results, again don't feel it's everyone that believes and trust in crypto, so to me I will say don't blame them much for not supporting your little beginning, always treat me as family and Friends as usual, and I will also say a big congratulations to you on your achievements through crypto...

Because your friend and family did not encourage you when you needed them should not stop you from helping them now that you are fine. You won't blame them because they never had the idea, they didn't see what you saw then, to them they thought they were helping you to do the right thing which every good family and friends will always do. But it was so good that you never allowed their ignorance to quench your goals and your targets.

You have no choice than to help them, your results of your investment has open their eyes to learn to be on the right part, so urge you to be nice to those who never supported you. You have to understand not everyone will support you, what you need to prove to them is the result of your goal.

I agree to fact that focusing on our goals is a number one priority for achieving one's interest in life because I believe that what we hardly worked for there is always a reward for that. You might fall at first but if time is given you will surely reach your goal, in all i am concluding at that given time and patience is the best way to achieve our goals

I am sorry for how you are mistreated by your family, when people share this type of story I always feel like the luckiest person ever because I was never treated in such a manner.

I was well supported before I have something good to show for it, sometimes, parents are the real culprit when their children fail, they want results from them but they don't believe in their dreams, this is saddening to hear.

My father gave me all his time when he was still alive, he supported me and my goals, he encouraged me more than my mother, I was able to become successful because of his encouragement and love, I will raise my children the same way, by God's grace.

If my father never supported me I would have lost hope or left and the hate will always be inside me forever. I wish you the best OP and I am sorry for everything you went through, do forgive them and find peace.

They are your family and they will always be, they are irreplaceable.

people who laugh at or discourage you I'm sure they are people who have never seen the process in any case whether it's in work, ability, and included in your investment journey in bitcoin. people like them never try new opportunities. and if there isn't a good, profitable result yet, people like them won't believe it. so your step to evacuate from an environment like that is indeed the right step.

Today, I now own a home and a nice ride, I was able to get married and settle down, but now they feel like they made a huge mistake for not listening to me. I believe this was the best decision I've ever made, I was able to gathered some BTC in 2019  to 2020 bear market and also with the help of my trading skills.
your friends or your family will definitely regret it, because now they see clear evidence that bitcoin is indeed a quality asset and bitcoin always has the opportunity to continue to climb to the top of the highest mountain.
but actually if they really want to participate in investing in bitcoin, even now is not too late. there are always opportunities if you want to invest in bitcoin, the important thing is to start now.

Only God knows what would have happened if I never left, my mind kept telling me to venture into crypto at the time and even my own family shut the idea down.
it means you are a lucky person, because I often see, many people regret why they didn't know about bitcoin or crypto from the beginning.

I don't know why and now they are asking for my help, I have to do it since they are my family, and even my friends are asking for help, would you help your discouraging friends if you are in my shoe? They were my friends, but not anymore, I believe friends should be supportive of each other, am I wrong.
follow your heart, if you want to help your family and friends then do it. But the most important thing is not to harm yourself.
because if I were in a position like you, I would also do that.

If you are a crypto newbie, make sure you set your mind on your goals, do not be discouraged by anyone, people can't see the future, we are not gods or demigods who can read the future, do not listen to any naysayers.
and I'll add. "Don't miss the slightest opportunity, because we don't know that something small will turn into a towering mountain in the future."

The reactions you get from people or certain circumstances shouldn't change you negatively. If you a generally a good person, then be good. If it was your desire to aid them in the past, you should by all means do what you must but, perhaps with a price (by price, i don't mean it must be money) and a little much stressful this time.
Should be I guess. But OP had a bad experiences. Though we know resentment is corrosive, its not always like that. But its not our cup of tea to judge them since we arent on his place.

Apparently, I think OP still cares and will definitely do the right thing. Past is a past and maybe they learn the lesson when the things they noticed got changed too. Its a shamed that respect isnt done at the beginning and to end up being in the same foot but you already did a horrible judgement.

Because you got a house and a nice ride. People tend to believe one if there is a result that they are seeing. Some of them hesitant cause they are still at doubt during the time they are being informed of it but now that they see you with achievements that you have made. The reality speaks when they asked you again for help. Also help them, its not that they throw you out before but even so still help them with all you can do especially they are still your family. Resentment isnt something good ones feeling.

If it was your desire to aid them in the past, you should by all means do what you must but, perhaps with a price (by price, i don't mean it must be money) and a little much stressful this time. At least, you've got to make them understand that opportunities aren't left hanging around for them to ride on at anytime. It's slippery and slips away at any point but, I don't really blame them for doubting. Besides, your meant to do your own research before going both feet deep in and looking out for some proof could be that for them.
Family success is actually for all and so, it pays even you @OP to carry them along in your engagement and exercise caution where need be.
