Okay, I'd greentext this but I have no clue how to do it properly so I'm just gonna plaintext this...

I'm kind of the runt of the group. I'd never hear the end of it. I think this relationship is just ruined now.
I think the best thing I can do now is get through my final year of highschool and make friends at college and not tell anyone about my money. I'm thinking about giving my dad like 1000 XRB and just telling him to give me what they were worth in October, but I really feel like this is a horrible thing to do.
Yeah, you're right. Where do I find rich friends? I feel like a Veeky Forums meetup would be a disaster.
I don't really need the money right now though. I think I'll just keep everything in there. Thank you for your kind words though user.
I'm sorry for your loss user.

>OP just get rich friends lmao
How? I feel like I wouldn't fit in at all with any of them.

Nobody gives a shit about you, dude. That was true before you had money, and its true now that you do. The difference is that more people will try to use you, if you let them.
You don't deserve attention for winning the lottery (essentially).

210k is not a lot of money, believe it or not. It's not even enough to buy and maintain a decent house in a populated urban area, for example. You can burn through 210k in a few years if you spend it on stupid things, and you will be back at square one.

However, you could secure your future this year if you decide to re-invest a significant portion of your remaining stack into smart projects that are guaranteed to provide excellent returns. Like Eth, because it is the backbone of the altcoin market.

You could even look into the real stock market, or canadian stock market. California just legalized pot and you could buy stock in an expanding legal pot operation. Or something like that in Canada, which did the same thing.

You're burned out and what you really need is some passive income while you focus on becoming a fully functional, independent and not-shitty human being. College isn't necessarily the way to do that unless you feel like you absolutely need a degree in something.

Talk to an accountant even and look into bonds/vanguard fund if you want to stay away from crypto. If you start with even 100k now, compound interest on a medium-risk fund will make you a multi-multi millionaire by 35, and you won't even have to do shit. The stock market is going to be great for another few years unless a coup happens.

Whatever you do, act now.

I sincerely hope you cashed out

OP don’t give your dad a goddamn cent. He’s clearly a petty, bitter man and all the money in the world won’t fix that. And fuck your fake friends.

Keep investing, build up that stack, and make yourself fully independent. Press forward in college and make real friends who truly care about you (don’t tell them about your crypto tho).

Your dad is a fag. What a little bitch.

and honestly, stop being such a bitch.

Realize now that 18 year old you doesn't know fucking anything about real life, and that you should endeavor to surround yourself with people that do, and do your best to gain valuable life experience. If you go to college while you already have money (which gives you the capability of making lots more money), you will feel like a total outsider because you will be surrounded by communist and liberal bottom feeders that think finding a $20 in their couch is a reason to celebrate.

If I were you this is what I would do. I would dump 50% of my stack into Eth today, 25% into vechain and icon, and then keep the rest in a savings account. Then I would take that savings account and go travel around the world and have some adventures. It would be a wild ride at 18, and you will grow enormously as a person by interacting with assholes from all over the world. You would, assuming you are white, also be incredibly popular with the ladies and would quickly learn how to handle women.

Just get out there, fuck college. Make some weird friends, go diving, go hiking, do some shit, man. These are your prime years if you let them be, don't waste them in a shitty little state indoctrination plant. Come back in a couple years and when you see your 650k waiting for you, buy and rent some condos out. Forgot college.

You already won the fucking game, bro.

Thanks for being realistic with me. Is there anything wrong with keeping my money in XRB? I really feel like it could hit $100 sometime this year. I'd rather keep my money in something that could very well be the future. Not crypto, but the blockchain itself.

And I think I'm pretty good with money. Surprisingly enough $200k isn't phasing me. I haven't cashed out any part of what I made and told myself I'm only cashing out once I made $2m - If I ever get there even. Right now I have stop losses to pull me out when my coins are worth $25k collectively. A 25x return on my investment is fine for me.

Why don't you think XRB will make it?

Your dad is a faggot he should be proud of his son being successful. Money makes people dislike you because it breeds jealousy.

Ironically I'd do this and use your gains for college.

I think you should cash out a significant chunk of what you made and put it in a safer investment like ETFs. At this point you've already won, so feel good about that. Keep the rest in crypto and make more gains, when XRB crashes tell your dad you lost everything.

You are young and if you're going to college it's the perfect chance to rebuild a network of friends. Keep your monetary gains to yourself and you'll be fine. Your dad needs to get over it, and if he's not a total piece of shit, he will.

...

Taking a gap year is a great idea. I think this guy is offering great advice actually.

Never mention your wealth to anyone ever again, it will only make them jealous. Just finish college and enjoy a comfy life.

>Why don't you think XRB will make it?
I say you shouldn't sell XRB. You can still make good gains in it.
Maybe sell a little portion, like 10 or 15% to gamble on shitcoins that you think will moon.

see I don't care for XRB personally, but if you feel confident in the project then its your money. I highly suggest DIVERSIFYING in some manner, though. This will save you if any one of your coins experiences a terrible crash due to unforeseeable circumstances.

IMO the most valuable thing somebody young and with money could ever possibly do is start making their money work for them as soon as possible. Passive income.

Maybe look into masternodes if you want to stay in the crypto game and generate passive income. Real estate and renting if you want to get out.

I'm being real with you because I think you have an actual chance to secure your future with your actions in the next couple of days, and I think it would be pretty cool for a young guy to do that.

This is a really good reply. Thank you. I only really want to go to college to take Computer Science. I'm really iffy about travelling the world and not going to college with just $150k with me in investments. I'm an introverted person, if I ever do travel it'd be to see the world, not really to interact with people, as beta as that sounds. I didn't really mean to come off as being a bitch, I guess I just wasn't ready for the only relationships I have with people to come crashing down on me. Right now I have no one I can really talk to which makes me a bit depressed, but I guess you're right. These are the prime years of my life and I shouldn't spend them sulking about shitty people around me.

All these suggestions to cash out, I'm starting to really consider it now. I've always been planning to cash out enough for my first year at college, but I don't know if I'd do much more. I'm definitely keeping my net worth a secret from anyone I meet in the future.

As for my dad, this is the first time I've seen him like this. All the other times with him he's been an amazing supportive person. I hope I get to have him back.

Fuck them all, mate. I'm 19 and I'd be wanking myself senseless if I had the sense to get in early and get 210k. If they are all treating you like shit then they are complete scumbags, they've shown their true colours and the best thing you can do is just move on and keep moneymaxxing, man. You're a legend, bro, don't let people drag you down and try and mess with your success.

let's give dis a try guys

Easy come, easy go. You better have a plan in place. Once you hit sell, this becomes a short-term capital gain, and taxes are due on 4/17. Don't be a fool.

A guy who has only one child, a son, stopped talking to him for a mere $500,000, how nice. Never mix family and business, ever.

Do something nice with him, book a vacation with him for example. Maybe buy something he can’t afford but would make him extremely happy, just show him you haven’t forgotten about him.

I know I look old fashioned, but here is a serious tip for you

Bring out 50k of that in to some super boring index fund, like SP500. your future self will thank you the crypto money still have a lot of room to grow

oh yeah, and pay your taxes, as excruciating as it may be

Disregard this advice if you're non-white:

Watch Goodfellas and remember the pink cadillac meme.

NEVER TELL ANYBODY ABOUT YOUR GAINS

It's your own fault, but if what you posted about your dad is the whole truth he is a faggot too
