No body interested with your offering about how promising when investing assets in cryptocurrency exactly with Bitcoin due you still loss and poor, their mindset think about you were crazy and Bitcoin investment based on their mind are gambling or hype investment way. Change viewed with your when having much money and they can see how success you are after investing in Bitcoin due with your house and you have nice ride.

I don't think good ideas explained to them right now when you have everything and earn much profit from Bitcoin investment, will get bigger risk waiting for if you keep recommended them for investing in Bitcoin because price have been up right now, better keep teaching about risk and right moment when investing in bitcoin.

OP, Personally, I would never recommend you to share your personal things with all your friends, some things should always remain private, especially when they have to do with finances.
In this way, you would avoid many misunderstandings and problems with your friends.
Our mutual relationships are very important, both with friends and with family, and should be nurtured and developed.
In life, not only money and our personal goals are important, but also our relationships with other people, and family relationships.
Also, you should not brag about your financial successes because it is a variable category and it changes very quickly, it is unstable.
What is much more important and lasting in our lives is family and our community, friends, and you will understand that one day.
Money is not the goal of our lives, but only a means to achieve some other goals.
I advise you to focus more on the people around you, and less on your personal financial success, and your life will then be much more fulfilling and bring more satisfaction.

Trading in general — regardless if cryptocurrency trading or not, is such a difficult path to take that you really can't blame people for being skeptical/cautious. Long-term success rates are staggeringly bad that you're better off doing something else instead.

Assuming you're telling a true story of you doing well, don't get too cocky — because not because you did well in the past, doesn't automatically you're going to do well in the long-term.
People have different mindset towards crypto trading and you can’t expect for them to share the same mindset with you. That’s why you can’t blame them if they become skeptical about trading, especially that they have seen you struggling and losing your money in trading before. But that was before. Now, they have realized already that they’re wrong about crypto trading and so you should be considerate for them. Instead of resenting, give them another chance and help them if they ask help from you. You can always find friends as they only come and go, but real friends are hard to find and so let them stay. Share them about what you have learned from crypto, and maybe by this time they will be very willing to listen to you.

At first I felt sad when I read the first two sentences but soon had a wide smile on my face when I read the last sentence. Sometimes we wish people can tell the future.

Just stay true to Bitcoin and be a person of strong conviction as regards your beliefs about Bitcoin. Set your Bitcoin and trading goals and work today the.

Goal are personal, setting your mind and focusing all your effort on your goals is the best thing you can think of. Not minding the discouragement from either family or friends. You shouldn't  expect full support from family or friends because they dont see what you see, they cant understand the positive impact you want to make in life. People will discourage whatever idea you bring depending on their own level of understanding about improvement. Most discouragings comes from family, friends, relatives but that does not mean that when you succed you shouldn't estend a helping hand. I believe family will want you to do better. It all depends from their understanding. You just have to stick to your goal and be consistence about it.

Even though they have made me sad, I will still help them if they ask for help, especially if it is family.
It's not easy to forgive someone who has underestimated or belittled us, but we must try to forget it for our own good.
It's not good to hold grudges against someone who has hurt us because it will hinder us from growing better.
We must have a goal in investing in crypto so that we can find a way that we can use to achieve that goal.

I'm going through this. To be honest, my economy is getting so much better by investing in bitcoin, and now I'm belittling the people who used to belittle and criticize me for not making money and wasting time investing in bitcoin. Many times when I sit alone and think back, I find myself making the same mistakes as they did in the past. But when I saw them, I recalled the words they threw at me, I was really angry and didn't want to share bitcoins with my loved ones. I still can't get rid of my hatred to help them.

Live with peace and enjoy life!
Family will always be family so whatever misunderstandings you had before, forget it and instead help them so they can also live a good life. However, in the case of your friends, I don’t think they become unsupportive to you, maybe they don’t just like the idea about crypto so they will never encourage you to embrace crypto. But maybe in some aspects, they are there to support you so they are still your real friends after all.

Do not focus on hatred or revenge, instead learn to see the positive side that you are now capable to help them so never turn your back on them. Life is uncertain, you will never know if you will still be successful in the future or you might end up as a failure, so never hesitate to help when you are capable of helping others.

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, and 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.


For sure this story touches everyone who read this and yes you are right about discouragement because we are living in the world of judgment so we can not deny the fact that even our family member spoke to us discouraging words. But for yourself just go on your decision like what you did Op you've been away from your friends for some couple of year in order to trust your decision and and then you will be successful today. This story is the best for new in investing that ( we must trust ourself and be positive thinker).

I don’t understand what the grudge is. But if you refuse to help your friends or family today, how are you different from them?

This is exactly my thought, why hate on them or feel grudges, it's better to prove to them that you are a better person that them, because you portraying any bad thought towards your friends due to the past event or experience you had makes you exactly like the people you are despising, so I think letting go makes you a better man and human being. And congratulations on how achievements bro

If you are being honest with your story, then congratulations.

You're asking if you should help them after how they reacted to you before? In my opinion you should assess that. If I were in your position, I'll probably be picky. If I have time and I do not have any conflict with the person, I'll definitely share some knowledge to them.

In this life I believe only myself and I can only trust myself your friends and family advice most can lead you to where and place that you are not supposed to be or path that is not yours but you are their because you wants to respect the wish of others making you to get little which you may feel is comfortable for you but yourself knows that that path is not yours therefore I encourage others to just trust God in all your steps of life do what you have to do to be happy with yourself and to achieve your goals most times we just have to be our own adviser because most people will wants to discourage in any path you wants to take because their can only see the present without the future for me forgive them by introducing them to bitcoin so that there will see what they said you shouldn’t do was what gave you life so pass on that life to them also by doing so their will also tell other people about bitcoin because most people don’t believe that bitcoin actually can change someone story

It's good for you that you managed to get success after taking that decision, otherwise, your words wouldn't have been the same. Your friends and family were not wrong from their side, since they probably didn't know much about it, and just because they used to discourage you, it doesn't mean they were against you, but they were simply against the fact that you might ruin yourself and your life.

Imagine you moved out of the city, and then couldn't achieve what you did, and then you would also say that they were right, and none of it was worth it. So there are always two sides to a story, it is always better to see both angles and then base your thoughts on that.

Regarding help, of course, you should help them out if you are in a situation where you can. They might haven't been in the favor of you being involved with Bitcoin, but they were at least your friends and family, and you've had them since childhood. Don't ruin it just because of your ego.

Speaking of supportive friends, that you are being discouraged by your friends not to invest in cryptos doesn't mean they aren't being supportive. I think they are in there own capacity, trying to save you from a lose as they don't know any better. The level of support you would get is that which comes from how much they know which in this case, is only lose and you presumably know better and so, you stay your course. That your friends don't see opportunity where you find one doesn't mean they are not being supportive!

You've done yourself good in not listening to the FUD they tried to sell you. Risks is indeed rewarding to the darery. You took your chances and you've won. That proving of yourself as a success is a good enough lesson for your friends. If you can aid them in whatever capacity that brings you peace, you should. That's how to be the bigger and better person.

Trading has always its uncertainties. Even good traders cannot secure profits all the time, as they may eventually lose in some days especially if they trade when the market is not stable. So just be happy because you have made huge profits from trading, but do not expect that you will experience being profitable all the time. And never think that you knew everything about trading, as even professional traders even fail in times when they least expect it.

You can’t hold a grudge against your family for giving you advice which they believed was the best at the time. Ever put yourself in their shoes? Imo they were being supportive in the way they could. Imagine it was difficult for them watching you everyday on a computer looking at graphs and charts. Truth to told, bitcoin trading as a full time job seem unorthodox to our parents and they assume it’s same as gambling. You can’t hate a person for being ignorant, you can only teach them to see your point of view. Forget the past, you are living good now I think you should be supportive of your family.

Your drive and determination in life have brought you this far toward achieving your life goal. I'll say you're the patient and focused type after you've overcome all of these obstacles. If your friends who initially discouraged you from investing in bitcoin require your assistance and guidance, you should teach them. Knowledge shared is like a charity from which you will benefit more. Bitcoin investment should not be forced or persuaded, but since they came at their own freewill, go ahead and guide them into the world of bitcoin.

I hope you are content with what you have received. But can a person be happy when his family needs something? No one is obliged to believe you in any of your ideas; another thing is important. How much do you believe in it yourself? And only after receiving the results can you say that you are a winner. I don’t understand what the grudge is. But if you refuse to help your friends or family today, how are you different from them?

People should be above harboring resentment against their relatives. And so if you are talking about friends as unimportant people, you probably have never had friends, or you do not understand the whole meaning of real friendship.
I don’t see any success if you are still hurting deep within. Yes, you are in profits right now, but you can never hold the grudge against your family forever. Family no matter what happens, will always be your family. And real friends will always be friends forever. That’s why instead of hating them because they weren’t there when you need their support, why not share your success to them so that all of you will experience the good life that trading has given you. Do not focus on resentment, just live a good life together with your friends and family. After all, success will not be genuine if you are not completely happy about it.

And to think that trading is not for everyone seeing how hard it is, then you can’t put your shoe on to them and blame them for being unsupportive. Just be grateful that you succeed and live a comfortable life right now. But then again, no matter how good you are in trading, that won’t guarantee that you are excuse from losing. You can be profitable today, but maybe tomorrow you will also suffer from a great loss, that’s why trading is somewhat like gambling, it’s never a win-win all the time.

 It's important to have something that drives you. In that way, it'd be easy to have a reason to be determined and focused. You were probably angry and disappointed that your folks just lost faith in you after an investment went south but I'm real glad that you stuck to your guns and your focus paid off.
 Now I think your folks would have something to believe you for😏

I just love the topic because it is self explanatory in itself.
In my lifetime, I have never seen anyone with a testimony of success, who didn't attribute it to following their path. I.e, sheer focus on their goals, shunning all forms all distractions that comes from environment, neighbors, friends and family, even colleagues. It works like magic elixir and am not surprised it worked for you OP.
Fortune always favor the bold. Your bold move and believe in yourself, triggered your success.
Am a firm believer in focusing on goals and nothing else.
