Bitcoin crashed 85% in 2014 from $1000 to $150. I lost $25,000, thought I was done for, earned a few gray hairs, then choked back my tears and held. Two fucking years of holding it took before I got back to where I was, and then I started making a lot of fucking money. I quit my job at Target, traveled the world, did a lot of partying and traded my fucking ass off day on day out to pay for my lifestyle. Now today my $12,000,000 crypto stack is down to $3,000,000, and I'm honestly worried I might have to go back to work one day. I definitely don't have enough to retire and I'm convinced the stock market will crash any day now and the US dollar along with it. It's so difficult this time. Before I just detached myself from the whole thing and said fuck it I never put in anything I was afraid to lose anyways, but now I'm a millionaire, and I'm so fucking afraid to lose it now. somewhere I want to believe other whales like me won't sell for any lower, but I know they're hands aren't as strong as mine. The fear is crippling, but I hodl. I hodl.

You're going back to work, faggot.

You'll be hearing the sound of the morning alarm in no time. If you cash out now, first you'll get hit with tax, then you'll put it in the market which will crash and you'll be back to square one. If you leave it in Bitcoin, it's gonna get crushed and never recover. The party is over. You'll be back a job you hate in no time. Also no employer is gonna look at you because you completely squandered your time, and they will look at you as irresponsible and a risk taker.

Na just kidding faggot, from here on in it'll be easy gains in Bitcoin, and after the next stock market correction, you can put some in there - people predicting US dollar/economy death are fucking stupid. The debt looks like it's insurmountable because of low productivity, but AI and robotics will nuke productivity sky high, absorb the debt, and lead to the next economic fucking renaissance.

Spare a thought for us wage cucks who have yet to break 6 figures in crypto yet.

What? You lost 25k in 2014 and then held? So that means your original holding was probably about 30 bitcoin yeah? How do you have 12 million.

Did you buy more even after getting burned so hard? You worked at target so that's unlikely you were buying more. Also improbable you wouldn't have sold for the 4.5k while working at target but I'll grant you might be strong willed.

You make it sound like you cashed out soon as possible too. But even granting you sold at the perfect opportunity, you'd at most have 600k. 30*20000.

What the fuck.

Can't remember banks and governments attacking crypto this hard back in the days. The market has gone mainstream in recent months and is now in the crosshairs of "the elite". I'm afraid this is way different than all that came before.
That said, I'm holding like a retard. I kissed the money goodbye, and if it all goes down, so be it.

Too late to sell. To soon to buy. So we stare at the sky. If it rains, we'll ignore, and keep on gazing while it pours. Hard to breathe, go back to bed, but skies too neat, now turkeys dead.

You made it through 2014 your fucking fine. Scale back lifestyle, develop some bullshit dropship clothing line and wait. Crypto actually has a usecase now and commercial won't kill it, they want it. Might be FUCKED for a while but you'll be dope. Create a budget and remove 1 years worth of Survival money + Investment for a small business of your choosing and get the fuck on it. I own two businesses not to toot my own poot. Real cunts but have a lot of pride and a nice sense of accomplishment otherwise almost completely unachievable.

you could pull all of that $3M out now, invest it in mutual funds or low risk stocks that pay dividends, or ETFs, and just live off a comfy 5% ($90,000) per year without ever having to work again or dip into the principle. $90k is enough to live a real comfy upper middle class lifestyle in anywhere but the most expensive cities on Earth.
