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.
