I was in community college taking some real basic, entry-level I.T. classes. And one of my classmates seemed nice, normal young guy about 20, already married.

And one day on campus I see him drive up in a Mercedes. And I ask him what’s going on.

Well, he tells me that he learned a little bit about cryptocurrency, and now he had gone into business where he advises people on how to invest in cryptocurrency. And I thought, “That’s really wise!” and I hope he is still doing well!

Basically a great way to stay above the hype and scams. Surely some sort of federal regulations would begin to apply... but good luck!

> And I thought, “That’s really wise!”

He was smart, but not necessarily wise. Wisdom would've been not spending the money on a Mercedes at 20 years old.

I mean that's ok he was a kid. I would've done the same at that age.

That's just a modernization of the selling shovels thing...
