Unmade it by 2024. Struggling to get back ever since. There is no worse feeling than having had enough money to be retired for life and then losing that and having to go back to the wagecage, bros. If you make it, don't keep gambling. I thought I could get to $10M+, but I was wrong.

How?

Being poor is better than being rich

>>60742397
Chasing meme coin pumps mostly, trading emotionally with other shit. I actually went all in BTC at one point swearing off the hunt, and then wound up selling after a dump and losing about 20% of my folio. I still have ~$700k which is not enough but I guess it could be way worse.

Right now I am sitting in BTC, ETH, LINK, XRP, SOL and just going to hope the next 6-12 months gets me back.

It's not about poor vs. rich, anon. There was nothing I fundamentally did differently other than one thing:

>Stopped working

Having your time to yourself instead of owing it to someone else is life changing. There is nothing that can replace it. And no

>Start a business

Is not a solution. When you are a business owner your time isn't yours, it's your customers and employees.

Nothing replaces the freedom of simply not needing an income. Nothing. And once you experience this it's very difficult to find yourself without it again.

>I still have ~$700k
dont complain thats still a very sweet stack and an almost guarantee to make it in 5 years tops
you just learned a very expensive lesson anon, but you did learn it right? you got out with enough to be comfy, some go to literal zeros

correct, it will suck hard for you to go back to the cagie for 5 years, but are you willing to do that to then retire or will you fuck up again
just remember to cash out into more stable assets next time first that will have your col covered for the rest of your life

I am 100% sure I won't be gambling/chasing pumps anymore. I am not sure if I should stay in crypto or just move to stocks at this point.

>>60742641
Yea do you think I still take my chances in crypto for now? Definitely the long term plan is move into stable assets like stocks.

>Yea do you think I still take my chances in crypto for now?
why wouldnt you the next couple of years are insanely bullish with regulatory clarity and money printing to come, i didnt imply to go all into safe stocks
just at a next topping event when you cash out, take a good chunk of that and put it in safe options, this way you can ride the crypto assets much easier
thats what i did in 2022, i calced my expenses and figured that if i didnt go nigger rich i had it with half cashed out to safety and half then left over to ride it
best decision i made, like you said nothing beats the freedom

same boat, except i refuse to go back in the cagie. ill just go be homeless if i cant run up the scraps i have left

at one point my portfolio was worth 36 BTC, all I had to do was just hold that and I would have been good, instead I have nothing and have to wage.

From what he's saying instead of choosing the easy but slow route of just putting his money into bitcuck and ethereum and tqqq, he decided it was a smart move to put 1 million american dollars into random shitcoins in hopes of rapidly growing that in a short period of time.

Stop overtrading you absolute retard. Stop overthinking what is a very simple equation. And frnakly you should get a job, just so you can enjoy commuting and dealing with all that shit for a while and then remembering exactly why it was dumb of you to do all the dumb shit you did.
