 Isn’t it painful watching family think that they don’t need Bitcoin because they have easy banking services, CD yield, 401ks, and houses…while you know they’re booking real losses on all of it?

 Yes. I've tried convincing the people I love most to at least study Bitcoin. Almost all have dismissed me without much thought.

Painful.

Seems they are too well off and/or too stubborn to have an open mind about it.

 Or better yet, in one case, none of those things. Just money in a savings account and a head full of propaganda.

 I guess that counts as easy banking services actually.
