19 -year -old bitcoin chief, "If you can't become a bitcoin within 10 years

Erik Finman bet with his parents at the age of 12.He felt that the school was too much, and he thought he didn't want to go to college.And he invests about 150,000 yen from his grandmother in bitcoin.After that, I can imagine that the value of bitcoin has risen, and he has become a bitcoin chief and does not have to go to college.He currently has a bitcoin worth about $ 1.5 million (about 160 million yen) (as of February 1).

He continues to invest in cryptocurrencies even after Millionaire, but he made a statement that shakes many people's feelings in the interview of a business insider recently.In particular, many adults, including Gizmodo's comments, say, "It's not easy to make money,"That's why! "

Business Insider: Technology has a limit.Today's cryptocurrency is completely different from a few years ago.Do you still think that you can win if you bet on your parents?

Finman: If you can use virtual currency wisely for the next 10 years, many people will be able to build a huge wealth more than ever.This field is still relatively small.The market value is slightly higher than $ 500 billion.I don't want you to misunderstand, but of course this is a very expensive amount.But it is smaller than other assets.So if you can't be millions in the next 10 years, it's your responsibility.In this field, new business models and innovation are still appearing.Therefore, there are many opportunities for investment.

"If you haven't become a millionaire in 10 years, your responsibilities" ... it's certainly a bit of a click.GIZMODO's Matt Novak reporter said, "Teen -generation children don't know how to close their mouths, so they don't need to be strict with him."In the comment section, "I thought that Bitcoin would crash for the first time."I'm sorry, adults are jealous ...

Aside from the joke, it is dangerous to spend a lot of money into cryptocurrencies.Even if you lose all your savings for retirement, it's your responsibility, not Eric.

Eric also talks about his experience in Ted X Teen, where teenage children give a speech.Here is Eric's speech.Well, it's really young.I'm sorry, I don't have anything!
