RE: How would you like to be a millionaire by the age of 18?

(Why he didn't take the $100,000 cash and then just buy bitcoins with it is beyond me. You would think he would have been able to amass more than the 200 he was getting, but that is a question for another day I guess)

Well he clearly wasn't the businessman I want to work with lmao...

Sort:  

Haha me neither. I wonder what his rational was for that? Probably just didn't even think about it until after he already made the deal...

Perhaps the reason was trust. The Bitcoin would have been immediate. The $100,000 could easily have been a pay as you operate the business deal, which is quite common. But you dont always get all your money. So it could actually be an early case of someone having more faith in digital currency than paper.
