According to the latest news, Yi Hui, the founder of Biteasy, died on June 5, 20 19 at the age of 42.
This caused a sensation among my college classmates.
In fact, no one in the group has heard of "Bite Yi", let alone "Yi Hui".
To our surprise, it was reported in the news that this buddy misappropriated the customer's bitcoin and enlarged it to 1 0,000 times of leverage to short it, resulting in a huge loss of1.10.30 billion yuan.
OMG！ 1.1.300 million yuan? What concept?
Get the third-and fourth-tier cities and buy the house of 100 in one breath!
The deceased is gone, regardless of the incident itself, may this 70-year-old colleague rest in peace.
But getting rich overnight is always confusing.
1
I have heard too much about the myth of getting rich.
In recent years, there are too many myths about getting rich overnight. Who doesn't feel itchy?
Real estate speculation, foreign exchange speculation, mining speculation, currency speculation, P2P…… ..........................................................................................................................................................
Especially a cat, a dog far less than you, copied your math homework every day in junior high school, but one day it may become an upstart.
Can you survive this inner excitement?
Why are you embarrassed?
In fact, when a group of people rushed to jump into the pit, most of them were destined to be pitted, buried alive and chopped by leeks.
However, the pit is there. Whether you jump or not, as long as someone makes a fortune and forms a demonstration effect, they will eventually be hit in the face.
As the slappers of the post-70s, we have been trapped on the beach by the glamorous post-80s.
Needless to say, the post-90s generation, like Nezha, caught up on hot wheels, and there was a phone call behind.
As a result, just like thelma and louise, honest people born after 70 will also ignite the surging tide of "the last madness".
I can't let go of my face and I can't calm down my heart. To put it bluntly, I am not convinced.
"The princes must be in the same place, I would rather have seeds!"
Have balls?
If you have the courage, you can do it.
So, I rolled up my sleeves and someone really went.
"The wind is rustling in Shui Han, and the strong man is gone forever."
This seems to be fate.

Getting rich is a small probability event.
There is a concept in psychology called "usability bias".
What do you mean?
It turns out that our brains are easily confused. For those things we see a lot, we will mistakenly think that they have a higher probability.
There is also a saying in journalism, "Dog bites is not news, but man bites dog is news".
When these two subjects are combined, there will be problems.
On the one hand, those bizarre and rare myths about getting rich have great news value and will be widely reported, and their "usability" is extremely high.
On the other hand, after watching the news of the myth of getting rich, people mistakenly think that this myth of getting rich is very common and pies are easy to hit themselves.
Listen, that's how a big misunderstanding came about.
Take the stock market as an example. There is a saying in China that retail investors generally "make one profit, two draws and seven losses".
Only one out of ten people can make money.
How many people who make money together can make a fortune?
Very few.
Speculation, whatever it is, is playing a "zero-sum game". You do, I don't.
Everybody makes money together? That's absolutely impossible!
Li Xiaolai, the richest man in China's Bitcoin, saw it thoroughly and bluntly said that he was cutting leeks. Although this statement has caused a wave of public outrage, it is really true in private.
Some retail investors on the snowball complain about the banker all day, and don't have to think: the banker won't cut leeks for you, why not?
The truth is deep in my heart, the boss can only get rich overnight if he harvests you. How can he bring you "common prosperity"?
What's more, when the big boss is stumbling, he will be harvested by the bigger boss, and who will he talk to?
The so-called small probability event, to put it bluntly, is that getting rich basically has nothing to do with you.
Therefore, it is better to think less.

Come and go in a hurry
Fish Leong sang in the song: "Come and go quickly, but the fireworks are happy in the last blank." .
The history of speculation is the history of blood and tears. I don't know how many people died in it and dissipated like fireworks.
Livermore, the author of Memoirs of a Stock Master, was called the "king of speculation" on Wall Street, but he was shot in the end.
This bullet seems to be the tragic footnote of the whole speculation.
I know a boss who runs a factory to make plastic products. He worked hard for more than 20 years and gradually expanded his business. The output value has already exceeded 100 million. Ten years ago, life was easy.
But in the years when real estate was the hottest, he couldn't help it. He traded in partnership with others and earned 700 million yuan in a few years.
He later reflected that it would be better to stop at that time, or that he was too greedy and confident and just wanted to make more quick money.
As a result, he fell on the real estate regulation, not only spit back all the money he earned, but also owed the bank more than 200 million yuan, and all the assets he earned in his life were gone.
Unfortunately, alas.
In fact, many large and medium-sized private enterprises that have been dumped are often the bosses who are too gambling, or lose too much money directly, or make cross-border investments at random, and finally send their hard-earned money to Shui Piao.
Big boss is still like this. What about as ordinary as you and me?
Like bitcoin.
Many people who invest in Bitcoin are afraid that they have not understood it for many years. What is the so-called blockchain technology?
However, when people see bitcoin soaring, they all make money, and they just enter with envy, regardless of logic.
I'm afraid most of this blind "red-eye money" will never come back.
Similarly, P2P.
When P2P was the hottest, many people didn't understand its essence, what its underlying technology and business model were, so they plunged into it, just like Lei Feng, deliberately stepping on mines.
What will be the next wave of hype?
Who knows?

It is practical to move bricks honestly.
When people reach middle age, they can't stand too much tossing.
Early 20 s, covered in blood, full and not hungry. It doesn't matter what he does.
But after the age of 30 to 40, there are old people and young people in the world, and then messing around is really different.
At least don't mistake speculation for investment. We always dream of getting rich overnight, but we jump into the pit with our eyes closed, bury them alive and cut leeks.
Touch your mouth carefully. If there is no better choice, it is more practical to move bricks honestly.
What did you say?/Sorry?
