Don't talk about crypto with family or friends that you aren't willing to lose.

This upcoming holiday season, don't be "the crypto guy" that talks about crypto. It will only end poorly for all involved. In my opinion, it is better to send them to Investopedia Beginner Link and let them do research on their own and then maybe discuss investing in crypto once they know the risks.

Even still, this can be risky.

Fear

People are afraid of what they don't understand. They'll believe all of the FUD that the mainstream media pumps out about Crypto.

Fear -> Envy

Even if they're afraid, they'll start to see that you're making money and that you have some "secret recipe" to crypto. They're going to ask you for more advice. Even though you don't "know shit about fuck." You're going to know more than them and they're going to trust you.

Envy -> Greed

They're going to do what all people do when they think they can make money. They're going to invest way more than they can afford to lose because they're greedy.

Greed -> Hate

They're going to lose everything because they didn't do any research, used leverage, or FOMO'd in at an all time high (ATH). They're never going to blame themselves, so they're going to find the person who dragged them into all of this.

Hate -> Suffering

They're going to take it out on you, whether at family functions or by talking about you behind your back. This will make your life miserable.

When the market goes up, they're smart for investing their money. When the market goes down, you dragged them into this. You literally can't win.
