At the height of 2021's metaverse craze, the following information was posted in a social media group called "dude, this is a solid tip":

The world-renowned electronics giant (I won't name names, so I don't get sued 😂) will soon announce its own metaverse coin, and the CEO will personally announce it at the giant Asian launch!

So I immediately said, "This time, I'm not buying a Lamborghini, I'm buying a space shuttle!"

I poured all my savings (literally, every last penny) into that phony coin. 🤡

I waited every day for a week for the CEO to speak. I told my family, "We're rich," and my friends, "Dude, keep quiet, it'll be a surprise."
Launch day arrived, and the two-hour speech... The CEO finally took the microphone:

"Yes, we're working on the metaverse too, thanks."

He left the microphone and walked away.
The coin wasn't even mentioned. 10 seconds, that's all.

Of course, my coin hasn't moved 😁... I watched the "-" sign in my wallet for three months.

My mom still asks, "Son, what happened to that coin talk?" I say, "Mom, he's stuck in the metaverse." 😂

Now, every time news about the metaverse breaks, my phone buzzes; it's a lifelong trauma.

I'll never fall for the "CEO will announce" tip again... or maybe I will, who knows 🤦‍♂️💀
