RE: A Little HIVE goes a Long Way

even if they really need the money it'd be unwise to sell everything.

It is pretty easy to have the 50/50 rule here - earn, but never power down. For most in the world, powerup more :) I know I could have done better in many cases here - but I have also been consistently moving upward, especially during the bears.

Hive is more forgiving than that in a way, as long as you've remained a good actor there'll be people around here to support you

Yes. I know one who ended up having to cover a tax bill, but in the last few years has built back well. Life happens, but life happens for some a lot more than perhaps it should. So, the question is, is it life, or their own behaviors?

while there's nothing left for you aside from proof you were one of the first million users

The blockchain doesn't forget. An immutable reminder of an opportunity missed.

I don't think it's crazy to assume that there's a ton of upside to it compared to downside as it can't get much worse pricewise

And this is the risk management. People seem destined to keep buying crap where there is certainty to zero and taking large risks on what has little gain. Why not roll the dice on a bit of Hive? :)
