When I was younger I was terrible at saving money. I still am, actually, I compulsively spend cash. But now I've discovered assets and instead of buying shit for myself I buy BTC, ETH, gold, silver, indexes, dividends stocks, and suddenly I've realized I can save (invest) like $1000 a month. I always thought I was poor but I was just blowing my money on shit I didn't need.
Anyways, poor people are retarded. It's not like I have a good job or sizeable income. Unless you have children you have no excuse to be broke.

When I was younger, I compulsively hoarded cash. I wrote myself balance sheets whenever my parents borrowed it from me.

see I've always instinctively known fiat was toilet paper garbage, it's just that I used to waste it on video games and weed and other consooooomer bullshit because I figured why not enjoy life instead of playing the rigged saving game. then I became slightly less retarded and realized how easy asset purchases were. I had poorfag parents and thought investing was risky and only for rich people.
thank you for reading my diary desu.

Never had much money but just this year my unrealized loss has been 30k$ and I realized I have a lot of money from buying crypto and stocks. Kek. I buy more now that it's cheap again and am still poor.
