Many many years ago a friend of a fiend asked me too shoot some covers for him. He had no money and it would have taken over a week actually. This was back in the film days.
However he said that I could have like a 25% partneship in some stupid computer game he was sort of going to sell for BIG money. Yeah right I thought sur!  I didnt actually have time and I was going broad.

Only the computer game was called "Packman" !!  I'm sure some of the older ones here remember it!...Today this guy is worth over 500 million bucks. Sigh!

With that kind of money you could have own Shutter! 

Only if you believe a word of that? Pacman was created by Japanese video game designer Toru Iwatani not some guy in Sweden, Denmark or the UK.

Dumb thing was to go exclusive with FT from 2008 to 2012. Even dumber was not to join SS until 2012 because I thought my stuff wasn't good enough. Dumbest was not to buy Bitcoin with my miserable earnings from FT, otherwise I'd now be a multi-millionaire ($60 bought 1,000 Bitcoin in 2011 now worth nearly $5 million).

Come back when the unsupported bitcoin crashes and is worth nothing. At least our work has a fairly stable, even if low value and continues to produce some earnings.

Try these and see? But I say, when the crash hits, and there's blood in the street, no crying. http://www.investopedia.com/tech/6-most-important-cryptocurrencies-other-bitcoin/

Its all about timing though...sooner or later its going crash those that get out in time are going to do very well. Not for me I don't invest in things I don't understand.
