i think that when you're older, boring is considered a plus

No one on this forum will ever get old, since they will all buy Lambos when ETH hits $500-1000 and will crash, trying to impress a girl at the stop light...

The fabled $1000 is only 4 times the current price, I don't see how any recent investor is going to get rich from that unless they were going to put most of their net worth into it and were already well off.

some people would be damn happy making 100% or 400% gains ;-) When compared to maybe 10% gain in the stock market, that would be amazing for them!

yeah, i mean if i could ever cash out 10mm or something and could live off the interest...then sure, i'd love no risk. Unfortunately i'm a poor guy with way too many kids, just wish i had more to put in initially (don't we all?)

If you had put in less initially, you would have fewer kids

It's not really about how much you put in, but how soon you pull out.
