Veeky Forums has ruined my life
I am en electrical engineer by trade, always lived humble. Was an apprentice for a while, then things went a bit south for me in my personal life. At the time, I was living in Ohio, where I just couldn't get a job. By luck, I scored a gig in a small fish processing plant in Alaska and since nothing was holding me back here, I decided to take the plunge and moved.
Things were great, and I managed to save up a solid amount of money. But through long nights I discovered Veeky Forums and Veeky Forums and everything else. I see cryptocurrency being the hip think, so I decided to put in most of my savings. Things were great, I got into some nice coins early (like ANS) and I was completely high from the profits, money just seemed to multiply.
This went on for a while and my colleagues noticed I suddenly got a lot of money. I tried to keep it hidden but then I told them all about it and how great it is, free money basically. Then they persuaded me to take their savings too and invest them (they decided to go all in basically) and suddenly I was operating a portfolio of several $100K.
But after gains came the lows in July and the fork in August. Money slowly evaporated, I couldn't do it anymore. I clung to Veeky Forums for advice, but only lost more money to pnd after pnd. I hid this from my colleagues but eventually they wanted to see the money. I had to tell them that it was all gone, over the course of weeks, reduced to pennies. They got so pissed they beat me up. I got fired from my job. They also kicked me out of the house and I've spent the past few weeks on my last $5K that I managed to hide from them.
I contemplate suicide every day. It is impossible for me to get a job here now (small town). I am desperate and on the verge of ending it all. However, all may not be lost, because I have found a way to perhaps make the money back and start again. I don't see it mentioned here often, but it looks strong to me. The coin I am talking about is called "Digibyte".
