dude...try to keep up....we are talking about bitcoin and the internet...digital currency. Bitcoin is a digital currency for a digital world and which is why it never exsisted pre internet. Besides that who does heroin these days anyway...it's candy colored fentynal and if I were to try and buy that with bitcoin they'd be like "bro...I need the greenbacks"

sorry I missed the last part of your post previously...you got me flustered with the word heroin...that is heavy shit. Anyway Bitcoin is not more evil than money but it has potential to be or rather itkinda is but it is still based on cash really because ultimately it's to be bought and sold or used as overall "worth" of a corporation or person (or heroin dealer) it all goes back to 'cash" but bitcoin has that allure of animosity and it can make people instantly wealthy overnight which leads to...well we've all seen the people who fall into money made easily...the trumps , etc it's also a ponzi scheme and preys on the allure of "hey you too can make it " but yet I highly doubt most people even have an inkling of understanding how it really works and therefore it NEEDS the dummies...kinda like payday loan places, etc...they all are bad but Bitcoin is the facebro of currency

No, it wasn't invented for that. The fact that people used it to fund those such actions is irrelevant as those such acts were formerly (and still) funded by cash.
That's like blaming the guy who invented a knife or an axe to cut trees down for murders with knives and axes.
We get it...you don't like crypto. Remember... we went through all of that before.
***EDIT*** ok...I read yopur other posts since the one that I responded to. Either you are really stupid or you are just being an azzhole.
Are we talking about cryptocurrency or are we just talking about one dude's whacked out opinions about it who has zero interest in it and zero designs on ever owning any who has already said that he inherited a bunch of stuff so that he doesn't need to even consider investing.

You're not a smart guy and I can see that you just want to crap on something that you aren't interested in but just keep on belittling it and echoing the same negative stereotypes of it.
How did crime even take place before cryptocurrency?
You're so stupid.

Next argue with him about millennials. Or Amazon. It's a valuable use of time.

I put him on ignore. That way I don't crap in the playground for others to have to walk through.
I he.d back for a long time because I think the guy has some head issues - I still do but I think ignore is better than engage.

"You are ignoring content by this member".
I laughed because I immediately thought "even the ignore feature thinks that he's a 'member'."
HAHAHA!

The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) could be on the verge of expanding into the crypto space after posting a new job for an “experienced corporate attorney” to work on “emerging technologies” such as nonfungible tokens (NFTs) and the Metaverse.
According to the Sept. 23 listing on the Disney careers website, the company is hiring for a “Principal Counsel — Corporate Transactions, Emerging Technologies & NFTs” to work on transactions involving NFTs, the Metaverse, blockchain, and decentralized finance (DeFi).
Pretty interesting.
Also:
81 of top 100 companies use blockchain technology, Blockdata research shows
Survey shows growing consensus on adoption, investment and use cases. ‘Blockchain is here to stay.’

One of the guys who I follow a bit said that the NFT thing looked like a bubble and it seemed to keep going. I said that I would love to know more about it because I don't like investing 'blind' and I still don't really get the concept so I never put anything into NFTs.
That said, the future could still be huge for them when the economy turns around...just that I will probably still not get the concept so I won't likely be into them.
It's very much a long term / retirement based deal for me. I'll forego the yacht just now if I can stop work at 60 (22 years out) which is my big goal, 55 if I get lucky.
I've been talking about AVCs (work pension overpayments over here) with a financially switched on colleague all last week who gave me some really good advice. Did a bit if research as to what I can do with my teaching pension and was ready to start pumping a good bit into that month on month, good tax incentives etc.... Fire up the news today and the BofE has had to buy in hard to protect pension funds
shaken that idea quite hard as you might imagine.Property just now (something we'd always mused about as a down the line retirement idea), isn't as attractive right now and is only going to get worse with interest rate rises, utilities going through the roof and the Scottish government doing all that they can to put people off becoming land lord's.
Sticking with crypto just now (probably going to go with your suggestion and after getting rid of some of this lump sum, put in a little monthly) and also look at some traditional investment options.
Sensible forecasts for the next few years is about £8k - £12k after tax DJ income give or take. I really don't plan on doing that forever. I'm not going to to piss it all on crypto but I need a plan, we're mortgage free and can comfortably cover our needs off my teaching salary so that's a decent chunk to make useful.
Mrs JBJ is due probably a low 5 figure raise in the coming weeks too but she's totally oblivious and indifferent to this sort of stuff. Not wasteful of money but no real plans or acumen for making it work for her.

It can really be pretty daunting...and gub'ment intervention as well as bank actions can work so badly for individual citizens. The wild part is that when individual, regular old citizens could do really well with common investments (like Canada Savings Bonds here) it made the economy boom and everyone did well. Now the regular people can't seem to get anything that looks like it will make them any money.
I am seriously thinking about using $250 per month to buy ADA and XRP just to DCA into those 2. XRP still has a bit of a risky aspect to it but they both seem so good at these levels. $250 isn't a bank-breaker but it's enough to add up without being too aggressive.
