the hangovers are what really deter me now. what used to be a minor annoyance that I could sleep off in the morning are now two day affairs that make me feel like poo poo, physically and emotionally.

i can't imagine actually thinking that bitcoin will work out because if its value keeps increasing year over year, people wouldnt want to spend unless they absolutely had to because the .05BTC they paid to get fiddy's album in 2014 that was worth $20USD is now worth $1000USD

ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.
reminder: bitcoin has zero generated value of its own. every dollar "earned" by people through bitcoin is just a dollar lost by someone else who wasn't as quick or lucky

it's literally the lottery -- or like, maybe, gambling on a game of jenga, or something -- but because it involves computers and lets you buy graphics cards and pretend to be a hacker it is like crack for horrible nerds

also your bank may decide to freeze your account if you try to make a large deposit into it from a bitcoin exchange

since those places tend to be associated w/ things like purchasing drugs and child pornography

50 cent declared bankruptcy and then his lawyers found the bitcoins or something, he had forgotten about that. I wonder what the cash out value is.
