Anyone here worry that they're gonna lose all their money? I don't mean that whichever vehicles it's in are going to go down, I mean that it'll be lost or stolen or destroyed or whatever.
I know what I've got in cold and what's on exchanges. What's in the bank. What's in the portfolio. But I'm always checking the chain to see if my wallets still have balances. Checking the exchange to see if they rugged me yet. I worry that it could just poof away. How do you deal with this?

Crypto/stocks/fiat are also extremely fake. There is no winning

There's a higher probability that you'll get hit by a car, or get cancer, than have your crypto stolen

Just don't tell anyone irl about your crypto and store everything on hardware wallets.

Nope. Ive made 10x my investment, if I lose it all I learn from my mistake and try again. This is a game of attrition not meant for weak handed fags who are afraid of poverty.

It's actually very difficult to get hacked. You'd have to be a retard who opens up phishing emails and gives out his private key or something.
The riskiest ones are definitely exchanges, but I wouldn't worry about wallets. Especially if your wallets value is sub 100k. There's bigger fishes to fry.

Lost crypto in my country can be claimed on your taxes, which means in a worst case scenario I can recover nearly half of the value.

I've got a plan B if that ever happens. Drop out of society, become a nomad, and make it my life mission to have as many kids before I get caught and locked up from owing child support, and then inevitably killing myself.

What's stopping your from putting coins into monero, claiming a loss and then yield farming that money?

A lot of people never do. I heard Kevin Hart remark that every day he wakes up thinking the bank is going to show up and repossess his house and car.

Maybe it disappears tomorrow. Regardless, you will earn it back again. Wealth is what remains when all of your money is taken away.

What a shame to have been born a human being and to spend your whole life worrying. You should reach the point where you can be happy to have been born a human.

Birth, old age, sickness and death – we can’t fool around with these ultimate facts.

Reality: getting a handle on this must be our goal. Don’t get stuck in categories.

It’s strange that not a single person seriously considers his own life. For ages, we’ve been carrying around something uncooked. And we comfort ourselves with the fact that it’s the same for the others too. That’s what I call group stupidity: thinking that we just have to be like the others.
Satori means creating your own life. It means waking up from group stupidity.

In a part of Manchuria, the carts are pulled by huge dogs. The driver hangs a piece of meat in front of the dog’s nose, and the dog runs like crazy to try to get at it. But of course he can’t. He’s only thrown his meat after the cart has finally reached its destination. Then in a single gulp, he swallows it down.
It’s exactly the same with people and their pay checks. Until the end of the month they run after the salary hanging in front of their noses. Once the salary is paid, they gulp it down, and they’re already off: running after the next payday.

Nobody can see further than the end of their nose. Everyone believes that their life somehow has meaning, but they’re really no different from swallows: the males gather food, the females sit on the eggs.

Most people aren’t following any clear approach to life. They get by with makeshift methods, like rubbing lotion on a cramped shoulder.

The question is: why are you straining your forehead so much?

If you aren’t careful, you’ll spend your whole life doing nothing besides waiting for your ordinary-person hopes to someday be fulfilled

I shouldn't be admitting this on a public forum but I have like $400k in BTC and it's still all in an old Electrum wallet on my PC.

I should create a multisig wallet and transfer it already. Just gotta figure out a good system for storing my keys separately

The Ledger hack honestly had me freaked the fuck out for a few weeks. I still get really nasty phishing emails. Luckily I switched my emails because somebody tried to sign in on my Coinbase account.
