Bit Coin Mania

I put my life savings into bitcoins she told me Bit coins! Bit coins! Bit coins! The neighbors are dancing in the street. They have $100, 000 in a $10, 000 portfolio now. Bit coin mania, you are insania! I cannot believe how fast they buy Bit coin mania, you are insania. I still ask myself why buy? Oh why? Two weeks later the janitor at works tells me a secret. I am a millionaire now, but I still plan to work through December. I ask him to let me in on his secret. Bit coins! He tells me. But he cautions me “don’t tell anyone else.”' Bit coin mania, you are insania! I cannot believe how fast they buy Bit coin mania, you are insania. I still ask myself why buy? Oh why? Before the Bit Coin debacle, I was the only poor person I knew. Now they are all in it with me except for one thing. Not only did they go from Richie Rich status to poverty level in a week But they lost their life savings. Whereas mine was spent on a new car which I am enjoying as I drive around singing the “Bit Coin” jingle.

Such poor use of money, I must say, it's becoming a kind of craze, not good... as you say, better to save it:)

I think people jump on stuff like this fearing a shortage or not getting a piece.

Ah, how people rush to get in on the latest fad. They would have been better off with their savings in a reputable, local bank. You keep doing it the way you are doing it, Caren, and remember "ill-gotten gain," etc., etc., etc.

Hello Caren, oh the other people lost their savings so now they have nothing. On the other hand you spent it wisely. Hugs.
