where do you guys go to trade leverage on shitcoins?

It seems like one of those things that "people just do" and never really question it. But why would you pay a 3rd party for accident protection when you could just do it yourself? Open a different bank account for emergency funds, and deposit what you would be spending on insurance in it every month. And if you make it the entire year without having to use it, you withdraw a certain percentage as a kickback.

You don't have to worry about the insurance company fucking with your rates if you have to use it, if you have insurance you still have to pay deductibles, and by definition the insurance companies are making money off of you, otherwise they wouldn't be in business. Plus businesses that you're patronizing will try to squeeze you for extra money if they know they can get it from the insurance company. (can't tell you about how much my dentist is pestering me about routines x-rays for no fucking reason.)

So why not just do it yourself? Only problem I can think of is that you're banking on not being in any major accident until you can save up enough capital. Am I missing something? It's the most jewish business model barring lending.

Is it better to buy a car or lease a car?

Is it a better idea to put $2000 a month towards buying a house or put it all into BTC before the next halving?
