Best Cryptocurrency Investing Advice: Control Your Lizard Brain with Terry Burnham

I was looking at the Q&A site Quora the other day. A common question around cryptocurrency is "What is your best cryptocurrency investing advice?" The answers were your standard fare… things like , don't invest more than you can afford to lose, doing lots of research, blah blah blah. Mine is control your lizard brain. If you can't do that, nothing else will matter. So I decided to go to the wayback machine and dust off an interview I did with Terry Burnham, author of Mean Markets and Lizard Brains , for my radio show, all the way back in 2005. Being an interview from 2005, Bitcoin wasn't even a glimmer in Satoshi Nakamoto's eye yet. But everything we say about the stock market is equally applicable to cryptoassets since, as I keep reminding you, just because crypto is a new asset class, all the same rules of investing still apply.
