this financial talk is pretty boring. this is what you do on your freetime?

most people who deal with finances dont spend their time off talking about it, they enjoy their riches.

so how about you guys put a break on it? put some photos up of your riches? a few photos of your cars, helicopters, houses etc ?

think about it as inspiration for the rest of us, who hasnt invested as wisely as you have over the years in gold, silver, stocks, bonds, bitcoins and everything else you talk about day after day on here.

so bring those photos up. im waiting.



Ha ha - yeah fair call, although I would say, a lot of those people who pose with cars, watches, cash etc actually are not the wealthy ones. Not one of the crowd that I hang with do this. There's also the issue of bringing "unwanted attention" to yourself. I always find it amusing when these wannabe "gangsters/rappers" get arrested for drugs etc, and then you see their instagram pix flaunting cash/cars/gold chains etc.

For me the reality is that screen shots of my stocks or cash are not overly interesting, nor are pictures of various properties (all tenanted and not necessarily "glamorous"). And as for cars, I currently don't even own one! (That will change if I ever get more settled in a single location).

What the dudes I hang with do with their money though, is buy experiences - travelling to interesting places in the world, dining in nice places, doing charitable stuff, hobbies like cycling or mountain climbing or ice water swimming etc and yes some are into some pretty serious partying (usual stuff - clubs, chicks, champagne and other stuffs).

Sorry to be so boring! Having said that, I would love to see pix of others getbiggers spoils of wealth :) Do post them!

Lol - Yes, that is true. Having said that, there is not always a correlation. You would be amazed at the lack of quality pussy some wealthy people have, or the types of chicks they get stuck with. My observation is that pussy is a lot more correlated with confidence than wealth (or with "good looks" for that matter). I'll give you an example - when we are out clubbing, some of the really wealthy guys struggle to pick up pussy, at least until some catch on to "do you know who I am" type thing, and then you get the gold-diggers, some of whom are really obvious (although yes some are a good for a night of fun and are just attracted to the free drinks, nice hotel, coke etc and being seen hanging with this type of crowd). And then you get the dudes, maybe hanging with the same crowd but actually not wealthy at all (eg the barman at some club who has finished his shift, or some hipster who works at a café, or some unemployed dude who is always "in da clubs" etc - not that there is at all anything with these jobs), but to me it seems that these dudes that are confident get more than their share of quality pussy :) So, for those who aren't "rich", there is hope.

Having said all that, yes having money certainly can help $$$ :)

Heads of coin platforms front running potential bad news. I mean there is going to be a drop from all time highs, that's a given. Some people are going to take profits before year end....and they should.

This is what's being planned in South Africa, the Revenue Service wants to apply capital gains tax and income tax to crypocurrencies.

The want to copy a similar system which will be used in the U.K.

naw, way too early. Bitcoin is always going to have a place because no government can regulate it. Makes it easier to travel out of the country.
As far as unbanking goes, IMO seems like if you are willing to hide your money under a mattress, putting some in bitcoin so you can pay with your phone seems like a life saver.  ;D

Any government can make it illegal with a stroke of a pen.  

Just wait until a terror attack is tied to bitcoin, it would be made illegal very quickly.

No, because fiat notes are their baby... their creation... their control instrument.   

Will cash be abolished some day in favor of some all digital currency?... absolutely.  

It will NOT be bitcoin, it will be their own government/global version.

Government could also make gold illegal. Indeed they did in recent US history. That did not work particularly well. And that was with a physical items too. Not something intangible.

Was 1933, but very few turned in their gold.  Physical is impossible to trace.  Very easy to hide and/or bury.  It never tarnishes, rots or malfunctions.  

Digital 1's and 0's are much easier to take control of, hack, track, delete, destroy, etc.

Don’t you think that the biggest scam might be that the gov probably created bitcoin under the guise that gov can’t trace it? I’ve heard the stories of satoshi but this sounds more like a joint venture between the federal reserve and nsa.

computers have a bit more personality these days... and don't strictly operate within the realm of '1's and 0's'... think three, four, or maybe more digits.

Bitcoin has Zero value. I asked a whore the other day if she’d blow me for .0002 bitcoin and she said no.

I actually think gold is much easier to steal. I can travel around between boarders and countries and access bitcoin with just an access code in my head. Anywhere in the world. Gold, you would need to carry physically - very to be stolen, “taxed”, misappropriated, lost etc - not to mention not practical to carry in large amounts.
