I wanted to buy $100 of bitcoin in HS and couldn't figure out how. Would have been like $60,000,000 :ccc
Yeah I am so pissed about this too.
I had the money I was trying to convince my mum for months that I give her 100 dollars and she buys me a one time use card from the post office. She was convinced they could keep scamming more money from it somehow.
Today it's still a sore topic when I visit her.
Millions and millions lost because my mum doesn't know how a one time use card works
I have a similar story, except the people I asked about it convinced me it might be a scam. I bought some later, but it wasn't the lifechanging amount it could've been.
