WHAT FINANCIAL MISTAKE HURT OR AFFECTED YOU THE MOST?

In everything one is doing that will earn you money online or offline one should always make a good inquiry to have sound knowledge about it before engaging into it in order not to get hurt and regret making financial mistakes which I think you will learn from mine.

I believe most of us know what is called cryptocurrency where it has helped to raise many successful billionaires around the world. In my own case I have been motivated and I also want to make money from crypto but instead of me to go pay money for mentorship so that I can also make profit but greed did not allow me, I start watching YouTube videos which led me to financial mistakes. So I deposited a huge amount of money and lost everything in just 1 week.

HOW MUCH DID IT COST YOU IN MONEY, TIME OR PEACE OF MIND?

It cost me $200, it was a huge loss for a person like me who is struggling to survive . I was now like I would have used the money to invest in another thing where I have more knowledge but the greed of making fast money did not allow me to think wisely. The worst that happened during that period was that my house rent will expire in two weeks time but unfortunately for me I lost all the $200 I tried to multiply so that I can pay the caretaker, so ever since then I did not have peace of mind and I kept regretting my actions.

IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME, WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?

If only I can go back in time to correct the mistake I made again. But if it is possible I would just make my personal inquiries about cryptocurrency and so stop being greedy by paying for mentorship and having a good knowledge about what will profit me and can make me live the life of successful people I have seen make it in crypto

WAS IT DUE TO A LACK OF INFORMATION, OVERCONFIDENCE, OR A BAD RECOMMENDATION?

Yes it was due to lack of information because I was greedy to pay for mentorship in order to have knowledge that can push me up to the next level I want to be in life but instead I went online watching YouTube listening to people who are also on the app to make their own money and they will not reveal all the information you need for you to start properly and make profit. The most killer of all was me having overconfidence that what I don't have knowledge about I want to make profit on.

WHAT WOULD YOU TELL SOMEONE TO AVOID MAKING THAT SAME MISTAKE?

In other to avoid the mistake I made you don't have to be greedy. Because what I have come to realize is that you have to invest in knowledge of what you don't know which will yield a good profit for you and could achieve what you want in life. But if you did not invest in knowledge of what will earn you money you will surely live a life you will regret.

WHAT POSITIVE LESSONS DID THAT EXPERIENCE TEACH YOU?

Of course every hard and bad times one had in is life time the person is expected to have learnt positive lessons that will not make you repeat the same mistakes. In my own case I have learnt not to look at the amount of knowledge, of what will pay me a huge amount more than I invested. If only I never believe that I can learn everything on YouTube and watch videos without personal mentorship maybe I will not be regretting it today.
