Yes, I get anxiety whenever I try to do something with it. I want to ape into crypto with like $10K but I’m worried everything will dump the second I buy, like usual.

I had this problem for a few years. Had saved 100k and never wanted my account to go below 100k again

Did the calculations after a few years of that and realised that even if I’d just shoved it in an ETF I’d have made at least 25k. More if I’d gone into crypto

It doesn’t worry me anymore. Cash is dead money, put your money into literally anything else

18k in crypto,
4k in savings I have slowly accumulated as a sperg, watched link go from 0.2 to where it is today, im in australia so ill never pull out of crypto all together. but yeah it is hilarious that I have so much faith in something I cant use because of where I live, I hope its just integrated somehow in the future or ill move to sweden heard they have atm's there where you can cash it out.

I was the exact same as you OP. Sacred of taking anything out of savings due to boomer programmed thinking. If i had pussied out I wouldnt have bought Link at 40 cents. My hands were legit shaking when i hit the "buy" button for the first time. What pushed me over was the thought of "no risk, no reward". Looking back now im glad I did it

you don't want to be one of those retards gambling their savings away, don't you?

crypto has done -90% more than once!

Maybe put 1k every month in in index fund, starting now

Keep the 5k in crypto - maybe it will 5x, maybe you'll loose everything

My dad died late 2019 and left me 40k, put 3k into crypto yesterday now it's worth 3200, I am also tempted to double or triple my portfolio I've also invested 3kin stonks last week and that's also +5% now. I will never get my hands on this money ever again as I make minimum wage at McDonalds, but looking at what I've done I could just put it all into crypto and stonks and never work another day.

What's so weird about that? I have €30k, which is about $36k sitting in my bank, and an additional €30k in actual cash at home. Nobody here invests in anything, every single person I know just saves to their bank account and never does anything with it other than buy a house or car at some point.

but most of the people you see that are doing really well probably invested for years in addition to saved. I figure, if I can accept the volatility and high degree of risk, I could quite realistically make like $100K+ if I put in $10K or so for a few years. That's years worth of savings.

I should add that I'm from Germany. I can assure you I don't know a single person that invested in anything. I've tried talking to a lot of people about it and nobody cares. Everyone here thinks that working is the only way to make money, and then just lets the rest rot in their bank account.
