Chapter 6 of 15 - How i end up with 0 balance in BCH? I knew that bad days will come at one moment, these HYIPs investments couldn't last forever ( now I'll be a millionaire if it last 😊 ). For those who don't know, HYIP comes from a *High-yield investment program*. This is an investment program based on Ponzi scheme. So after 4 months of investing in different HYIPs and with a total of ~1400$ profit, I decided to take half of my investment and invest in two HYIPs simultaneously (50/50). I talk to my partner, but he doesn't wanna take part in this, telling me *"It's too risky, chill down because you'll end up losing everything".* Of course, I didn't listen to him, and I make the investment. I thought I will take a big win from those two HYIP's and after this, I will stop doing these kinds of investments. I was very confident in these investments because I've had already a big profit. So, I invested in the first HYIPs in the second plan, 140% back after 10 days. With an investment of 350$, my profit will be 140$. On the other one, in the third plan, 200% back after 15 days. I invested 350$ also, and the profit was exactly the amount I invested in both HYIPs - 700$. In the first 2-3 days, I monitored almost every 1-2 hours if the sites still pays. The payments and also the deposits from the HYIPs were very big so I calmed down a bit because I wasn't the only one with big money invested. After 6 days, both websites were still **running** and **paying**. On the 8th day, the first HYIP stopped paying, no payment on the 8th, 9th day. So on the 10th day when they returned my investment, of course, I didn't receive it. In my mind, I knew that I will lose all the profit I won till then and that's it. But, to my surprise, the second HYIP in which I invested, was still paying and didn't give me an impression that will become a SCAM. *SCAM - scam is a form of fraud and one of the most common types of confidence tricks* The 15th day goes by, also the 18th day. The 19th day was horrible, I was praying it will resist one more day, so I can recover at least my investment. Even if I wasn't winning nothing after 19 days of waiting, I was still happy that I didn't lose part of the money I won. Of course, I was lucky and I recovered my initial investment (700$ in total). No profit, but I can still smile. I decided to get out of this kind of investments because the chances to lose everything was too big. I was happy because I get out of this when still I was on profit. I returned from what I was doing before, investing just a part of my salary income in BCH and that's it. (no more risky investments). Fast forward, after 4 months, my friend called me telling that he's also out of this because he lost everything. **->** ****READ NEXT CHAPTER**** https://read.cash/@pio/chapter-7-of-15-how-i-end-up-with-0-balance-in-bch-58cff10c *FOLLOW ME!*👍
