Looks like we have reached a point of being more frank about investments. Of course everyone has a way of assessing potential risks and gains. We sometimes weigh more risks because we are afraid ourselves.
A person back then in 2009 didn't have an opportunity of investing as low as 0.0001usd in a bitcoin.
2010 came bitcoin hit a 0.07 usd mark. Probably many people hadn't heard about it either.
By 2013 bitcoin hit a 100usd mark.
Unfortunately most people here in africa didn't know much about bitcoin. But those few people that knew and did nothing about it most of them are still hurting until now.
You see there comes a time when you miss something and then you feel like you can do nothing to help yourself.
So what happens when bitcoin hits 100usd in 2013?
Probably you felt like it was too late to invest in it?
Right?
So then bitcoin makes 600usd leap in 2014.

An investment may not be all bread and butter, but it's much better than regretting

It's not a good way of doing things, when good things do happen and you just watch them pass and when they go you start regretting.
This cuts across all areas of our lives.
Do you know what happened to bitcoin in 2015?
Bitcoin dropped back to 220usd, after hitting a 600 usd in 2014.
Bubble, Bubble, Bubble.
So many a people who didn't invest were happy because bitcoin had dropped by about 300%.
Why were they happy?
Not because they had gotten a chance to invest in bitcoin.. No, not even by a long shot.
They were happy because what they thought about bitcoin seemed to be happening.
So they were happy to find out that their judgement about bitcoin was right
It's 2018 and bitcoin is about 7400usd

The investments you put into steemit will suprise you in the near future.

Am not sure when, some patience may be needed most of this time.
Some whales invested in steem power when steem was as low as $0.19
Now steem is at $2.07 after multiple highs.

Do you think it's late?
Personally I don't think it's late.
We have got the best time in the world to put a difference.
Everytime prices go down, they are giving us a second chance
We got to understand just that.
About 2025 when we will look back and be even more glad that we made the best decisions of our lives.
When blockchain will rule just about everything on earth. The new technology, a movement with such great innovations.
We shall be truely glad.
So what's up?
I don't how you are going to do it, we just have so many ways.
But...
Go a head.

You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:

***The investments you put into steemit will suprise you in the near future.
It should be surprise instead of suprise.

If you could travel back in time? Would you?

Probably not,

Even if i had known Bitcoin in 2009, i would have called it a scam. No regret, opportunities come once. Now, here is Steem, let me change the past for not investing in bitcoin earlier.

True, no regrets about bitcoin, you probably would have invested in something so rewarding as bitcoin.
Even with steem, i feel like am not investing enough.

It's so hard to foresee the future of any coin. Wish I had the eyes in the early crypto years :) thanks for the post~ keep up the good work!

It's really hard, and right now we can't tell where steem is going to stand in about three years, actually no one knows.
Someone told me, that if you can make clear decisions in all uncertainties and doubts, you have the world.

Better late than never. It’s good time to invest in Steemit. Thanks for inspiring writing.

Welcome, truely it's better late than never.

It all depends on your investing timeline, if you are truly long term, buying is always right you just need to try and manage your price-entry efficiency.

Most investments always work out in long term. It's a matter of patience and persistance.
Actually if it's about long-term,investing anytime at anyprice is all good, The price entry plot is good. Where you keep on investing multiple times a year after watching price drops.
Thanks.

I wished I have so fiat lying around. I would have definitely bought some STEEM.
