....and don't know $**t about either one. I just figure if you can't lick 'em, or make 'em vote Republican, then may as well smoke a bowl with them right? Besides, I couldn't find a handbasket company to buy stock in.

Bitcoin will do mighty well.
Unfortunately we just had our digital currency cashed out. It's something Wendy's cousin was doing for us and a few others. But his Parkinson's got to be too much. We have an appointment at 2pm today with our regular advisor to see what to do with it.
If I had the guts I'd head over to Coinbase a park a big chunk there.

I understand blockchain—the technical foundation for Bitcoin—but I don’t know anything about Bitcoin itself. This is probably a stupid question but what is the difference between having Wendy’s cousin put your money into a cryptocurrency exchange and doing it yourself? Is there greater risk when you do it yourself? Also, sorry about his Parkinson’s. A dear friend in Tennessee just received a Parkinson’s diagnosis. |

If you do it yourself, you have to REMEMBER where the money is.

Just that he watched it like a hawk in a day-trading sort of way. I have a tendency to forget and look in on it every few years. |

I no nothing about bitcoin, don't understand bitcoin, can't wrap my mind around the concept of bitcoin, and just don't get it.

Hmm, I just looked up Bitcoin and found it lost 11.32% yesterday. I’d wait to invest in Bitcoin until it crashes again, if I were interested it at all.

I actually am buying stock in one of the bitcoin mining companies, but it's been trending down recently too. Just placed my last little order this morning. Then I'm going to forget about it for awhile and see.

I invested in a lot of weed when in college. It didn’t make me rich. It just gave me a great appreciation of Oreos.

I don't get it, but there are only 21 million bitcoins, and that number is final. So isn't the whole thing just a shell game?

Well, I just went out to the local dispensary. Sue's been having trouble sleeping with neck pain. She's had a couple procedures that help a little. But it's still there. I told her she should try some gummies. She said maybe.
I was driving by the local place and walked in. Got a couple boxes of flavored thingies. 50/50 THC/CBD. We'll try them tonight.
Stuff is expensive. if she likes it, I told her she should get a prescription from one of her Drs. Medical stuff is cheaper than recreational stuff. (Same stuff. Just with a Dr's orders).
We shall see.
