Pauly Posted 20December, 2017 Report Share Posted 20December, 2017 I see this amongst more bitcoin "investors" vs actual investors that invest in shares, options, futures ect. Like the guy in the video, basically saying if he held his Bitcoin a lot longer, he'd be richer. It's like me or another investor saying "i should have held FB for another year, or bought FB LEAPS instead, i'd have a lot more money". Just shows it's just speculation. and "investing" blindly into something. And people paying him out for selling his bitcoin and buying a car. Well IMO good on him. made some money and decided to buy him self something he probably couldn't have afforded before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I kinda did really When prices of Porsches went through the roof coupla years after I bought my 912 for $11k and put a few grand into it, I ended up having to sell it to pay the ATO after being a naughty boy, yet I sold it at a healthy profit and was able to buy my 911 AND have some change to pay the debt. Shoulda heard some people I know saying 'Oh you should have paid it off the house/bought a new car/gone on a world trip/invested it in property blah blah' What, and have a life like yours driving a wagon, whinging you have a huge debt for your 2 properties, yet saying I earn too much to be able to own a Porsche? Yeah right, I'm out having fun every weekend fulfilling a 40 year dream and living in the now, whilst you lot sit at home wishing you had something more interesting to do than mow the lawns or go for a latte', as you endure 20 years working your arse off paying your mortgages ready for retirement, just to be able sit at home with aching joints after you've mowed your lawns and can't be arsed getting out of your own way as you watch re runs of Coronation street, yet wish you had bought that sports car you've always dreamt of! I'll buy what I want when I want thanks, as you never know what the future holds. If I have the money ofcourse Live life, buy a Porsche, or a Lambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and that's my choice whilst others stress about the future I work, watch Foxtel and drive a 911 on the weekend when I feel like it. I was mowing the lawns, though my mower shat itself, and I hated doing it anyway, so I had a mowerman friend start doing them 6 months ago. $40 every 3 or 4 weeks was cheaper than buying a good mower, and I can do other things I like doing.. ...not much!? Sadly, at 47, he unexpectedly passed away 2 weeks ago, so my lawns look like a paddock. Still not buying another mower though ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed doing acres of mowing (push + ride on go karting whilst thinking about very little) but nowadays the native animals (they came in on the boats) seem to keep it shorn. Want a dozen wallabies/potoroos sent your way? You won't need to prune roses , camellias or just about anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
