The fact you think bitcoin is an investment is hilarious. Is the US Dollar an investment too, in your eyes? You have some very basic flaws in your understanding of economics. I'd suggest you let your girlfriend handle the checkbook, even though she's shown a penchant for overspending on little pieces of plastic.
Do you not know that currency investment IS a thing?

Exchanges have caps on the amount you can withdraw at once. Still, these exchanges are basically completely unregulated stock markets that have operated on an honour system for this long. More will follow in Mt. Gox's footsteps now that the taboo has been broken.

And you do realize you can use bitcoins and such without having anything to do with Mtgox right? If your are buying bitcoins atm i think is a mistake but if you have had them or are mining them aslong as its profitable there is nothing to worry about. Do you even mine bitcoins Root or any other forum of cryptocurrency? Personally i mine Dogecoin then sell it for bitcoin on Cryptsy and then transfer to VirWox and cash out. Cash out once a month to pay my bills and i'm golden.

I wonder how many people Amazon would need to employ if they wanted to sell items for Bitcoins. They'd have to constantly adjust the price of all 420 million items every 20 minutes lol.
