Gf and parents want me to sell all my crypto so I can put down 20% for a house. They're freaking out thinking I'm going to lose all money but clearly they don't understand crypto and the amount of money I'll make in the upcoming bullrun. What should I tell them biz? I'm not selling my linkies

I know but I really had no other choice. They wanted to know where all my savings is so I guess I cracked under pressure. I told them "technically" I could cash out but that would be dumb. I explained to them that I'm like 40k in the green and that it will go even higher next year but they still want me to sell. To be fair, it's a beautiful house in a great location so this decision is very difficult. Should I backtrack and tell them I didn't invest in crypto? What other excuse could I use? I'm all ears

Are you living with your parents? Do you owe them money? If not, then they have no say in this. What your parents are doing is asking you to exchange one invest for another: your crypto for real estate. It’s the same thing as holding a stock instead of cashing it out. Even more, they’re asking you to cash out your investment and exchange it for DEBT at the TOP of the housing bubble! They want you to buy a house so your girlfriend can marry you and give them grandchildren. It’s not selfish to want grandkids, but it is selfish to fuck up your investment for you.

Explain to your parents that you’ve decided (decided, not asking for permission) to hold your crypto because it is the investment you’re most confident in, and you don’t want to go into debt at this time. If you can’t do that much then just sell your stack and cut your balls off.

If your parents are pressuring you to do this it sounds like you have a poor relationship with them as they don't trust your financial abilities. Don't interpret this wrong as they are your parents and do care. They wouldn't let you live in their house rent free if they didn't.

Your parents might put an ultimatum on you since they're normies and don't understand crypto. i.e. They won't put any money down unless you sell. Are you willing to give up the house?

1. Housing market is primed for a huge correction. To buy a house now is stupid, so your parents are stupid and don't know shit. The dollar is being devalued to shit and you want to buy a house now, fucking morons.

2. Read 1.

Women are irrational, shortsighted, and solipsistic. Just leave them be they won’t care about tomorrow they’re just stirring up drama because they’re bored. You should be numb to their games.

Tell them you lost it all and you're a penniless beggar.
Seriously OP, do not cave. There will always be beautiful houses. But making it has a window. And your parents want you to jump out of it.

Tell them you looked into it and part of the last tax bill included provisions that tax the hell out of crypto, so it doesn't make sense to sell because you would lose so.mich to taxes. Then blame Trump or Pelosi, depending on which way they align, switch the convo and use their cognitive dissonance against them. They will believe you got screwed by the party they hate and blame them instead.
