Imagine you are about a year from retirement. You put your money into your 401k, you did all the good goy things, and then 2008 happens and you know it'll take a decade before you can even think about retiring now. Every year takes away another year of your life. Every year another year donated to the corporate machines that demand every ounce of your soul.
That's how it feels, I imagine. Knowing you could be sitting at home right now, enjoying a cup of whatever you want, at the pace you want. Except that's a dream interrupted by an alarmclock, time to go slave away, wagie.

Well, I exited the crypto markets just in right time during Q4 2017 bubble burst. I thought to myself that I leave 10,000 LINK and just let it sit there, just for the memes. I didn't and just checked that it's 7,2 euros now. It's fine, I already made my money.

None of you will probably believe me, but that's alright. I bitch about it almost every night on steam to my mates. I was online on some stupid bb.com forum the day that BTC came out, I spend £500 that day. BTC was honestly, not more than £10. I still have the laptop I bought it on, it's corrupt and I haven't ever tried to get it fixed. God knows the wallet I got for it, I think, maybe it was Electrum.

Then, having came here for memes, I got eth around $30. I used to work on a ship, so I couldn't buy when I was at sea, but I used 90% of my salary for it. Sold all my eth for quite a good profit at $1000. (£700 ish iirc)

then, I put everything in link when the first couple of threads came out, can't remember when. Probably2017/18? Long time ago. At one point, I had over 400k link. I spent Almost all of my salary every month on it, convincing myself that I wasn't going to miss this one, and that I would hold forever. I sold most of it down to 20k in November last year when it crabbed around 4 cause I wanted to buy a house for my folks/gran. You have no idea how much it pains me knowing that I could potentially have had fucking billions. and just now, millions.

But I had to at that time. I'm not in the acceptance stage fully yet. But I'm sure with enough crystals and Jesus I'll get there. At least, at the very very least, my family has a house paid off and I am secure. But goddamn, knowing I could get generational wealth is kinda sucky.

My peak was 34k, so I wouldn't be retired now. I feel pretty numb at this point. I didn't actually want to sell. I had to sell late last year when it had dipped low. I was pretty dark for quite a while. I still have 2.4k and I'm ok now. Some days I still think about how close I'd be right now, but then I just remember that fate would've found a way to fuck me in some other potentially more cruel way.
