I do not need to get rich, but doubling up or tripling up on my tax return would be nice. Will have to see what I am truly willing to do when I get it and then see where everything is at. Usually just chicken out and end up missing out.

it's harder than you think to even do that. I'm not saying don't invest for sure, but do some research and know what it's gonna cost to get you in, to get you out, and whether that stock has the potential to make you any money whatsoever. I have a friend that invested in cryptocurrency in Dec of last year, and he still will not make any money if he gets out. (granted its ripple and did not take off like bitcoin, but the bitcoin boom may have ended. 

I am confused by this post, you do realise ripple is up exponentially more in the last 12 months than bitcoin, hell even in the last month it is up way more than bitcoin. you could buy ripple for 24 cents near the start of December 2017, it is currently around the $2 mark even after the crash. so unless you mean he was dumb and brought in at the stupid prices late December he should have made 10 fold on his investment easily.
