I get your point but please don't feed this "fear of missing out" that I'm sure many are feeling (myself included, to a certain extent). Some people are going to invest money they can't afford to lose.
Maybe they'll be the next 1%ers. Or maybe they're just like the folks who bought pets.com shares. There's simply no way to know and at this point it's more akin to gambling than investment.
Play the roulette, bet everything on red. You wouldn't want to miss out, would you? If red does come out and you don't bet you'll feel like a loser.
- coryfklein 9y agoYou don't have to bet the barn for heaven's sake. $800 in bitcoin 5 years ago makes you a millionaire today. Most software engineers are going to be just fine making one or two gambles on that order, and if it means they get more involved in new tech and have fun all the while I think it's a great idea.
