    So Monday I randomly got into a conversation with some random guy. Opened his office basically on walking distance from my house a few weeks ago. He invited me to come and see, and I was like yea why not, you never know what comes out of it.

    Guys, fucking Ponzi scheme. “Invest x amount of money and you’ll get a 300% return on investment within 16 months”

    “I have this friend, at first he was cautious and now he regrets not joining earlier, in fact he just made a 40k deposit”

    It took me a minute to understand the situation I landed in. Red flags everywhere
    I never understand how people can do this.

    The guilt would eat me up.
    In grad school we learned this as the Gobert Inverse Business Theorem wherein you weight the potential ethical outcome of monetization of conscience versus the likelihood of anything like this ever happening in Belgium.

    Yeah I’d have the same. I think mostly younger people fall for this or early middle age adults who struggle with money but who have a few thousand of savings

    Reflecting on everything, we spoke about e-commerce and his investment in Fintech on monday, not a single world about it today. Dude just grabbed a white board and started randomly explaining the things I previously said. Basically confirms what Dostoevsky said, this wasn’t his first time.

    It's FOMO. People hear stories about "man, I was this close to investing in Apple in 1992" and think they, too, will have a chance to become a millionaire if they risk it at the right time. I don't play the lottery because it's a voluntary tax, and I bat for average, not for home runs, but millions of people play it every day and will never win it.
