The hard part is when you convince you're relatives that you weren't stupid for not selling at this price.
Not selling what at what price? I'm confused.
At any price over what you paid or what the value was at the time you mined.
Never pay attention to relatives.

I don't feel like I have to convince anyone for my personal investments but when the topic comes up, I tell them to spend an amount that wouldn't hurt them in any way; financially or mentally and forget about it for some time. A year, 5 years, 10 years... If you win, you'll win big, if you lose, I will have told you that was a possibility higher than 0%.
Maybe you should just stop convince relatives and do what you want
True.
"The relatives" will be easy to convince when you buy them a nice vacation.
Dam it seems like everyone on here bought like sub 100. I feel like I am the only one who heard about it recently (1100 when I heard about it in late november). Am I too late to the game 
I am sure people who bought at 1$ felt the same about the "early adopters" who bought below 0.10$...But yes, at one point people will be too late to the game (in order to make big speculative gains, and possibly even lose quite a bit of money in the "final bubble").
Where we are now is up to you to decide
The best time to plant a tree is 30 years ago. The second best time is today. -Warren Buffet
The Oracle of Omaha. Beautiful really...I had not heard that particular quote..thank you.
It is definitely not a Buffet quote.
Perhaps just a paraphrase of he's actual quote. “Someone’s sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”

I know for a fact that my sister will have a huge hissy fit once we hit 10k+ and she suddenly finds out I have enough money to last tens of years if not the rest of my life. I envy those who are merely called dumb by their family.
Man you are so delusional. What makes you think bitcoin will ever go to $10k? The real invention here is the blockchain, bitcoin is just another cryptocurrency. Keep dreaming buddy, yes the few hundred or few thousand dollars you invested into bitcoin is going to set you up for life because bitcoin is going to increase 20X for no reason. This is like investing in some risky penny stock, or risky small cap stock and stating confidently that when (not even if) it goes up 20X your going to be a millionaire. Why don't you pull your money out and start investing in a real online business instead of just crossing your fingers and toes and living in fantasyland?
Lmao, YOU KNOW FOR A FACT that once we hit 10k your sister will have a hissy fit? If you know this for a fact why don't you max out all your credit cards, refinance your mortgage, sell all your shit, borrow money from all friends and family, and put it all into bitcoin right now. If you know something is going up 20X for a motherfucking fact, FOR A FACT, as you stated, why wouldn't you put everything you can into it. Why are you only investing in moderate amounts (as I'm sure you are)?
Have some humility because your ultra-confidence and blindness is going to teach you a very scary lesson one day.
Bitcoin is a risky investment, very risky investment. That is all. How can you say that a risky investment is going up about 20X for 100% sure? You can't. Open your mind! You are just being lazy and this is pure speculation and gambling. I hope it goes up 20X, but it probably won't. In fact I think it's going down even more. Bitcoin might be just a fad. Just like yo-yo's.
The blockchain is not a fad and is an incredible invention that will be re-purposed in some incredible way in the future. However bitcoin is just another cryptocoin. There is truly nothing special about bitcoin other than it came first. I don't think that's enough anymore to keep it going.
I hate your ultra-confidence! I hate anyone on this board who makes absolute statements. You don't know shit about shit about shit! And past performance is not an indicator of future behavior. Past performance is not an indicator of future behavior. Past performance is not an indicator of future behavior. You get it?
Oh dear,newbie gone full retard
I'm confident that you must have joined the wrong forum or have I fed the latest troll

It's "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today." and it's a chinese proverb according to my first google attempt.

Maybe not just the blockchain technology but also all the money poured by VC's and also with the almost 50 Petahash/s of the cryptographic power?
Do you prefer a POW ledger for your savings, secured by #1 cryptographic power or the paper dollar issued by the FED?
We talk about something that is way much more than a speculative moove, but freedom vs slavery by debt money... but yay you got so much worthless $, same in the stock market bubble !!
PS : im not hodling right now
I'm gonna say it. Man you are so delusional. This entire forum is probably 75% delusional. Yes my worthless $. LOL. My worthless dollars backed by the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and accepted in every single location in the USA and almost every else in the world. I wonder what percentage of retailers accept bitcoin? Ok how about in 5 years? What percentage of retailers will accept bitcoin then? Probably zero.
heytherebaby, you signed up as a newbie, just so you could tell us that?

How do you know it wont go up by 20x? You don't. Just like he doesn't. That was one of the most hypocritical posts I've seen on this forum.
Even what you are doing is pure speculation and gambling, just like him. You have NO idea what will happen. None of us do.
Bitcoin has proven already its not just a fad, we are sure of that. When the IRS tax it officially. It's no longer a fad. It is there just like gold and silver now.
You might think it's going down, but you are just as wrong as you are right - you don't know either.
This for the time being is speculation. Everything in Bitcoin is. We can be sure of nothing. Although I can see a 10K coin in 2015.
I personally think $3500 per coin the end of July. With two more crashes after that before it peaks out for good or is made official.

Why don't you head on over here where you belong -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0
Dam it seems like everyone on here bought like sub 100. I feel like I am the only one who heard about it recently (1100 when I heard about it in late november). Am I too late to the game
I bought my first coin at $98, but then proceeded to lose most of it by spending it and making some mediocre trades (like exchanging it for LTC and then selling it for $3 a couple weeks before it went to $40 ...doh)

Butthurt much? You must have sold everything at 350ish and not bought back in yet?
Before i was cost averaging so buying on dips then i sold around 530$ and shorted at 495$, when i will see the bottom (not yet imo), i will buy back and long all the way, so no butthurt thx
PS : i first bought bitcoin at 100$ (still no butthurt) and bought some today a 415$ (Bank transfer)

This guy's a noob. They all start out that way.
Stick around for another couple months and be amazed by bitcoin.
