Yes, I am unfortunately someone who tends to miss out of clever technological advances. I advised a colleague not to buy Amazon in 1997 because it was too expensive. Dumb. The technology of blockchain is something people have tried to explain to me, they are well convinced that it is a work of genius. But I am hard pressed to invest in things I don’t really understand based on other peoples’ assurances, because I still have no one to blame if things go wrong but myself. It probably is genius and I will miss out on it. But I have other things going well, so life goes on.

There's a saying in sales...the confused mind always says no.
