are they mocking us?

Literally me. I have a 700k portfolio and I've been trying to convince myself to order a fucking triple whopper, I love them tripple whoppers, but I feel guilty about doing it. A fucking voice within me tells me "what if you used that money to buy more crypto?". And herw we are. Opening the uber eats app and staring at that tripple whopper.

Lmao 500k in a brokerage account to live like that is pathetic.

>>60604038
buy that triple whopper on a loan. invest the loan amount in crypto. pay back the whopper with the interest from the crypto.

>$500K
>so much money
That's the average savings account for a 30-something guy these days.

Median net worth of Americans is around $100k. That includes property equity. Reality is that Americans just lie about their wealth because it's so tied to social status there more than anywhere else.

Redditor are the good goys, they got the CS degree, live in a shithole suburb and commute an hour each way to their six figure job in the city. Instead of quitting after WFH ended they enjoy the hustle and bustle of a diverse city because they have heckin barcades.

>>60604041
I live like that (minus having half a mil in my brokerage account, just shy of 6 figs). You need more? A small house to rest your head, plain clothes, and an old beater to get you from point A to point B. The only thing differently I'd be doing if I had more money would be traveling more frequent.

Half the population are nogs, browns, and irredeemable NPCs drooling on themselves. Including them in your calculation to make you feel better is just lying to yourself.

500k in savings and investments is the bare minimum for a successful triple digit IQ white person. The fact this guy has to dress like a hobo, drive a shit box, decline social outings, and live in a cardboard box to obtain it is pathetic. That is a number you should still have while living a full life.

>>60604038
You will always be poor if you are eating whoppers on the reg and have some food app in your phone.
It's a mentality.
You should be eating steak.
You are what you eat. It's literally true.
I am steak. You are a fast food sandwich.

>>60604038
Based, you're going to make it. It's so easy to go overboard with spending. Spend to make yourself richer, healthier, better educated, more interesting and to help strengthen your family or maybe enjoy yourself immensely. If it's not doing that really question it.

>>60604086
My net worth is 500k in crypto atm and I drive a 25 year old car. Everyone assumes I am poor. Hopefully I can hit 7 figs this run.

>>60604038
I FUCKING HATE THAT I RELATE TO THIS. I CAN'T EVEN MAKE A PURCHASE ANYMORE WITHOUT SAYING "SHIT THAT'S LIKE 3 LINK". CRYPTO HAS RUINED ME NOT FINANCIALLY BUT I CAN'T LOOK AT PRICES IN A STORE ANYMORE WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT WHAT AMOUNT OF CRYPTO THAT GETS ME. DO I REALLY NEED THIS CAR? THAT'S LIKE 3 ETH??

Last bull Reddit was heavy into Ada, eth, gme and doge while biz only had link and a slew of scams that went to zero.

This bull Reddit has been making a killing with nvidia. Reddit is much more intelligent and richer than biz

The financial side of reddit's got the same problem as here. Most people who day trade or buy crypto are not outpacing the S&P. A very, very small portion of people do, and they flossdance about it all day, encouraging the remaining 99% of these sites' DAUs to throw all their money into what is essentially texas hold'em with less certainty.

>>60604038
I have $1.5m and struggle to order takeout. My car is a decade old with 400k miles on it, I wear sweaters from high school and grocery shop with the discount flyer. Don't know how to break out of this mindset desu.

>Reddit is much more intelligent and richer than biz
Unironically the user post history and updoot systems work for subjects like finance. People here confidently parrot whatever they heard on their favorite alt coin podcast and in doing so influence dozens of people to do stupid shit. Meanwhile on reddit, if your account is new or if you have a reputation of saying stupid shit, people will usually downdoot you until your post is invisible.

He has 500k invested, plus whatever equity is in his home. Maybe his house is even paid off. Even a modest home like that is worth a fortune in some areas.

You couldn't pay me to eat that shit. Do yourself a favor and get a real burger at a real restaurant. No, not McDonald's. No franchise restaurant sells good burgers.

seems nice?
i would upgrade the car after driving into the ground or if i had kids, you can dress basic AF and still be /fa/ if you are also /fit/, i'd consider getting a nice watch thoughbeit. a small house is also nice, only upgrade if you get kids and actually need the space. with $500k in boomer stocks he can just start gambling the rest in crypto and wagmi faster, without actually risking ruin.

what's purpose does plywood box equity service other than 1) increasing your property tax base and the costs to insure and maintain your home or 2) providing an avenue to MORE DEBT with a HELOC cope?

>>60609467
Is has a value and should be counted.
What's the purpose of a digital digit in some app?

>>60609810
it's liquid; can be cashed out partially or in full with no lifestyle impact (selling your house and moving into another house or apartment); doesn't have a holding cost with a negative cash flow impact, let alone one that scales with its value (property tax/insurance.)

>>60609187
dont worry i felt the same way at 24, years 22-26 are generally brutal. you'll be fine tho. maybe enroll in grad school or cc night classes for something that sounds cool to you

>>60609187
bumble bff, hobby groups, church/community service if you're into that, etc. I used to think making friends after college was hard until I put in a few weeks of effort and found a good amount of friends.
