Back in 2013, my friend Jake was a tech enthusiast who couldn't stop talking about Bitcoin. At a casual get-together, he convinced me to buy $100 worth of it, just for fun. I laughed, thinking it was a silly gamble, and promptly forgot about it. Fast forward to 2017, Bitcoin hit an all-time high. Jake, now a crypto millionaire, reminded me about my forgotten investment. Skeptical but curious, I logged in to my old wallet and discovered my $100 had turned into nearly $20,000! That night, I took my family out for a celebratory dinner and finally admitted that sometimes, Jake did know what he was talking about.
