RE: Gaining a Trading Edge by Thinking a Few Steps Ahead (Part 1), and Avoiding Scams like BitConnect
I totally agree with everything that was said in your post. You can tell people one thing and they will hear what is ''good'' for them.
Also, crypto markets are so volatile that by the time you give someone a ''tip'' to buy STEEM at 10 cents, the price is going to be different, and if they also want to think if that investment in the coin is smart (and they think for a couple of months) time is going to pass and prices change.
People like blaming others, it is our nature. Admitting ones mistake is hard and blaming others is, well... easy. ''Alex forced me to click on my mouse and buy those SBD for 15$''! :D See, that was easy! But that is also not a real advice.
Plus, most like to jump on the train when it is moving full-speed. Well, if you do that, more often than not, you are going to be a roadkill rather than a passanger.
exactly @lindahas, all the more reasons giving "tips" generally always leads to more heartache for both parties. People generally rather blame others for their failings than themselves.
What many don't realize is that there's nothing wrong with failing, or losing. I do it all the time. The key is to keep at it, to keep going, and focus on keeping your "losses" relatively small when you have them. Then, every so often, you just might smack one out of the park, generally when you least expect it. And if you can focus on keeping those, the rest should just work itself out in the long run! :)
True! And it seems to ruin friendships. Where money is involved, people are very sensitive.
It is good to fail because we only learn from our mistakes. Somehow, when others fail, we think that the same can not happen to us and the lesson gets ignored. It is good to get hit once in a while, makes us smart and not so brainless as there are solutions that need finding.
agreed on both counts lol and yes, as for friendships, it also often becomes one of those "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situations too... lol
