I have just seen an ad of WU:

"Send money around the globe for 0 cost"
In small letters: "WU makes profit via conversion fees".



That's like a taxi service advertising that it will take you anywhere for free (you just have to pay to get in and out). I'm surprised an ad like that was allowed.

It's in Germany... They thought taking over the world was allowed.

Hmm Too soon?

PS: Please don't take offence, I'm just trolling Smiley.

Yeah 8K Euro / Month NET? Sure bro! Most people with an academic background look at 3K Euro NET / Month. Anyway you're a student, what do you know.

I'm nearly finished with my masters degreed and work part time...
I know the salary pretty well.

I wasn't talking about NET, because that depends on the tax region, health insurance policies, ... - there are big differences in switzerland! But it's no problem to invest every year 10-20k Euro with a normal job.

If you have a family and 3 children, cars, expensive holidays, then you probably are not capable of investing 10-20k euro/year in bitcoin.

Dream world!! Average net in Switzerland is 4,948 CHF according to Wikipedia (£3,348.85) and don't forget, this is relative to the price of living out there.



I was talking about people with academic background.. not the working poor without proper education...
Yeah, there are a lot of working poor, even in switzerland. Just don't have kids before 35 and you can live like a king here. But if you're stupid enough to get your girlfriend pregnet with 20, you have pretty much lost.

Thats ridiculous. Very few "normal" guys can throw $70,000 USD onto what is still very much an extremely speculative investment. Maybe you're on wallstreet and think $70K is throw away money, but don't be confused. You have to be crazy well off to throw $70,000 into something as far out as bitcoin.

Probably I live in a country with a lot more money available for the average joe.
20 Bitcoins are worth 11-12k CHF -> most people with academic background earn that in 1-1.5 months!

Yes, I can tell you, 20-100 BTC are no problem to invest including portfolio diversification (bitcoin shouldn't be more then 10% of your savings -> high risk).

BTW. I'm a student and I have more then 20 BTCs..


@ seleme: how old are you?
Just check the salary in switzerland and stop complaining about your miserable income.

You live in a country where a shitty kebab costs ten euros, starbucks 7 euros, and a stay in a shitty hotel with beds worse than a third world country 100 euros. Have perspective, you do not.

I am not re-buying. still in the trap zone.

Even 900 could be the "trap" zone and form a double top.

So you will wait 950 to go back in and miss on an extra 250 USD ?

The time back in was 100 dollars ago, and now Smiley


no.

if we go past 722 I will rebuy.

Gox is $723 right now.


yea, I noticed. also noticed some resistance. not convinced yet. if we stay above for some time, I will buy moar.

Cheesy

i cant do it

i cant sell me coins!  Cheesy


again I've got 22 BTC  a few days past a month so far mining as a NOOB....how many of you guys are gonna crack like an egg when/if BTC hits 1000 usd ..... ack....and from what I've seen on here if everyone runs to sell at the same time ..you seem to lock up the works anyway with no one selling....a nice little delusional loop

I've only got 22 coins ..it hits 1000 usd and I actually have the $$$ to plan and implement my foolish mid life crisis correctly (sports cars co-eds and bimbos)..(must resist)

anyway you with over 100 coins (big brass ones) I  will watch ponder and learn and www.mtgox.com is at $721 and going up as I type ....all aboard the 'roller coaster" exit stage left

sheez....only been doing this a month and flabbergasted already

Don't think that you are the only one with such a small portfolio! Big profits can still be made with what you have, it's all about timing and it's never too late!

The question is can you hold onto those coins?

Every "normal" guy can afford at least 10-100 btc.


Perhaps every middleclass 'Murican and European, don't know about the rest of the world though.

10 BTC Should be in reach of most of us. 100 BTC definitely isn't. He's just trolling.

The reason why there are so many idiotic postings...
Probably more then 50% here have less then 1 btc and are younger then 18 years old -> can't take anything seriously from such users

Each Mirsad's post is ridiculous. He is trying to present himself as some mofo trader, experienced and loaded.

Now that's something!!!

All bitcoin needs to rise even more now is some deposit haircuts around the world, like the one in Cyprus!!!!

Too big to fail? Kiss my ...

 Grin

When I said before that I expected something to happen by mid November (or a bit later) to drive the price up, the senate hearings weren't it. Still room for something crazy to happen and now it will just be insane.

Haha you say that 22BTC is a small portfolio... That's still huge compared to me! 0.11BTC currently! I just need to invest more and will when I get paid again Cheesy Honestly though, a long term (as long as BTC doesn't get outlawed in future) market cap of $50B-$100B is feasible and that would price each BTC at $2381- $4761. That's not taking out the lost BTC or BTC in storage (not in the exchanges) so with that taken into account I think the price *should* go a lot higher than that long term.

Well obviously now it is. A year or so back, 22 BTC wasn't that much. A lot of us here on the forum go way back and had the opportunity for a lot of cheap coins. (I wasn't one of the lucky guys, I discovered BTC when it was close to 70$). Still, if you believe in BTC; acquiring more at a pace you are comfortable with is the way to go.

Some of the guys here have over 1K coins, that just makes me sick Cheesy.

Find it rather troubling that BTCChina is not on rally mode, the last hours that is.

The night time is upon them.. not everyone stays up days at a time.. or perhaps a crash of sleeping all at the same time.
