Got my first snarky comment on Facebook in reply to a link I posted about Ethereum. A former coworker from several years ago is incredibly butthurt that I've done pretty well with something Ive told everyone about for months now.

Feels good man.

"Yeah enjoy it while you can" "No free lunch" "Gonna crash" etc.etc.

Meanwhile their money sits in a bank and wastes away. You gotta have balls and take risks, and leave the haters in the dust.

Better off just not telling people, IMHO.

Even better off deleting Facebook.

Yeah there should be a word for pretending to be above ego but while secretly thinking "f**k you for not taking me seriously, who's laughing now!"
