because we are locked in some sick purgatory where we have to lose money in order to gain money. imagine watching your money go to 20k then down to 10k then up to 15k then down to 8k then up to 18k then down to 6k where you sell and then watch it go past ath without you. fuck you faggot.

>>22136812
I lost around 6k portfolio value today

There's at least 5 things I want to buy and I'll probably end up missing out

>>22136752
What's there to be happy about?
You "live" in a world in which everything is dying around you. From entropy to aging everything is always dying. You were given a death sentence as soon as you were born. And if you don't go along with the herd mentality of this being paradise then you end up in prison, homeless, dead, or alone and miserable.

>>22136752
im fucking poor

They are too attached to transient things, anon. Learn from their mistakes.

Fucking poorfag, go the fuck back to plebbit.

>>22137013
depends what you own fucking faggot

having even moderate amounts of money invested in markets this ludicrously perilous and volatile is petrifying. it's all or nothing, we could be multi millionaires or simply install another shitting street with our precious resources, and only agonising year upon year of time will tell which.

>>22137071
Crying over $6k makes you a poorfag, you’re not cut out to be in crypto.

You are getting real answers.
People are angry because probably 80% of this board has lost money on any given day. Then they use 2020 hindsight to see what they COULD have done had they followed that one random thought 2 weeks ago.

As smarty pants as this board tries to be, there is a reason everyone isn't a millionaire. The market just isn't made for that.

>>22136752
Happy people don't visit this place

>>22136879
The good thing with browsing chans is that you become accustomed to the cunts as baseline, most people appear very nice in reality once you compare to the average anon calling you a nigger/kike/faggot.

>Then they use 2020 hindsight to see what they COULD have done had they followed that one random thought 2 weeks ago.
I almost fucking killed myself doing this in 2018. Every time I would make a trade, I'd clone my blockfolio so I could track what I would have made if I'd never done it, or if I'd gone into a different coin I was thinking of. Eventually I had like 20 blockfolios full of alternate portfolios most of which massively outperformed the real one. It was like getting cucked by dozens of alternate reality versions of myself who had all made it while I just kept digging myself further into quantum hell.

Hindsight and confirmation bias are both a hell of a drug. If I hadn't broken my phone during a rage fit in summer 2018 I honestly might have killed myself, but losing those blockfolios let me get some distance from the whole thing and center myself for a while.

It was shortly after I just decided to keep DCA into LINK and nothing else to keep life simple. And now I've got like $350k net worth. Things are pretty good now.

>>22136752

I'm holding ADA, it's like having a lambo but the CEO is doing 40 in a 100 zone!

Hurry the fuck up

>>22137663
same. i'm in literally the cheapest town in england, and jesus it shows. the police here were recently deemed unfit for purpose, i mean there are news stories about how even on weekend nights there are sometimes literally zero coppers available in the entire town. the absolute very worst of the worst shitholes, just so i could escape the hell of rent/mortgage. worth it for that, but i do literally have to fight off multiple people trying to climb in windows, through gates, over my fences etc, multiple times each year. incase i don't make enough in cryptos to move out of this fucking pit of retards and back to the south east, i've got 5 grams of tramadol hydrochloride and 5 grams of paracetamol waiting patiently in a drawer for when the time is right to give up.

>>22136752
they buy tops and sell bottoms instead of buying in early and then dumping of plebs later

>>22136752
I'm not unhappy. I'm just bored as fuck.

Already "made it" and live as a NEET with 800k. I just shitpost on here all day and literally count down the minutes until i can go to sleep cause im so fucking BORED

>>22136752
>Here comes that one fucking pepe fag making 10 bait threads with the same stupid face that people STILL reply to without saging

Everyone is unhappy, some just don't know it yet.

>>22136962
It doesn't matter unless you sold into a loss, drops like that are nothing. Wait until it drops 6 figures in a day.

>>22137931
You can always apply to jobs in other countries. Why not become an English teacher in Asia?
When coronachan is gone, you can do it. Bongland is surely horrible.
>>22138099
Not cool to brag. If you are bored, just get a minimum pay job or travel.

>>22138671
>If you are bored, just get a minimum pay job or travel.
Neither one of those are viable solutions for boredom in the middle of a pandemic.

>>22138671
i wasnt bragging.

cant really travel anywhere cause of corona

a minimum wage job sounds shitty, worse than being bored.

Which is why he made a thread asking why is everyone on /biz/ so emotional about it.

>>22137840
Funny, I ran that exact scenario as a simulation in my head and decided not do it for exactly the reason you reached eventually.
Except I didn't trust enough myself to DCA into LINK, simply sold every shitcoin I still held in 2018, put that into 6k LINK, said "not investing any more real life money in there", stopped checking the price, got married, bought an old house I'm currently rebuilding from scratch, currently expecting a son around EOY... and I am only slightly angry at myself for not having more than 6k LINK.
>>22139570
Why not invest into getting really good at something you think you might enjoy?
Music, painting, videogames, artisinal jerking off, anything?

Crypto space is boring recently. Also after a year of trading I'm bored with this "buy the dip and wait", even though I'll do it until I finally make it.

>>22140104
very close. 'benefits street' was filmed within walking distance of my house.

>>22140250
infact here, this is what i fucking put up with, it's exactly the same here.

>>22140295
imagine living among these animals and listening to this horrible accent all day
the absolute state of britbongs

>>22136752
Because /biz/lets don't have discipline.
They never red any book about how to act and how to create and keep strategies.
They never even tried to look into where traders get their education.
/biz/lets ride crypto train without knowledge of dangers of addiction.
They don't know when it's enough and time to stop trading.
Bizlets are addicts, gambling addicts who need education on the matter.
bizlets believe every shit being posted here, fud is always so good, they catch baits without hooks.
But of course they will never learn, because it's not in a interest of whales for them to learn, they are walking bags of cash, which needs to be taken from them.
/biz/ralis are uneducated fucks and you don't have to feels sorry for them, you are trading against them every single day, more brainlets, more gains in your portfolio.

>>22136752
I am HAPPY today because I took mushroom pills and got lunch with my younger sister

>>22136752
For me it's because markets are too fraud & irrational. And I really don't want to get a real job.

Because I'm not rich while I see stories of anons having 200k.

>>22140397
Pretty much, most people there want to get rich quick and some even go all in in the scams. 99.9% of them will never make it.

>>22136752
because 90% of the people on here lie about how much money they have, which isn't that much to begin with.

>>22140559
oh and I didn't buy more link 3 years ago

>>22140422
>mushroom pills
you mean like psilocybin? isn't that the most horrific of all drugs? i was lead to believe that it's impossible to trip two days in a row, so my second dose was 40 grams of sclerotia. it is not impossible to trip two days in a row. fucking hell that was a perilously retarded state to be in.

>>22136752
because I am fucking done with this place after years and I'm this fucking close to being able to say I made it and then I can finally forget the fucking internet even exists somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
Making money has made me hate fucking everyone.

>>22140675
I agree with this guy I'm sick of technology and the internet.
Been riding bitcoin and watching the fall of western civilization the past 5 years I'm ready to check out of the clown show.

You mean in the World?

not sure what you're blathering on about, /biz/ is the best board, did you miss out on link?

wow that sounds awful anon. glad you got there in the end

Its just a bunch of rich Frogs laughing at me because im poor , I FUCKING HATE THIS PLACE WHY DO I COME HERE

>>22137931
>5 grams of tramadol hydrochloride

I'd get something better than that anon, it wouldn't be a peaceful death at all. You'd be having really bad seizures for at least a couple hours before the breathing suppression would kick in. The nausea would make you vomit it all back up and you'd just be left seizing. Would not advise

>>22141890
i dunno man, i've od'd on it already in 2012. not quite enough though. i'd stopped breathing, but then became conscious of that fact, and thought "huh, i've stopped breathing, that can't be good. but... why breathe? oh right, to live. but, why live? i'm too comfy to care". i bet this is the dying thought of many a smack addict. and i expect dignitas uses a very similar chemical.
i did then take a breath and unfortunately as such here i am, but that was 20x50mg, 100x50mg would im pretty sure be effective and not too painful. can't fucking wait to be honest, a part of me wishes i could just lose everything now just to get the fucking unbearable hope out of the way.

>>22136752
For me it's constantly gaining and losing tens of thousands when I don't think my bank account has had more than 5 digits. Very frustrating

>>22140110
how much money you got to your name faggot?

>>22142153
you might have a really high seizure tolerance, were you on a benzo at the time as well? e.g. diazepam. surprised 20x50mg suppressed your breathing so hard, I used to take 12x50mg for fun.

I'm sorry you're having a hard time fren. I've been through some insanely dark times as well and yes it sounds trite to say but things really do get better, as hard as that is to believe. I'm rooting for you

>>22138099
read seth speaks and the nature of personal reality since you have the time anyway

>>22136752
We measure our success by how many material goods we can accumulate, but no matter how many we accrue there is always someone with more.

Anon it’s because on a daily basis - someone here or multiple anons here have lost over 5 figures easily but could of made 5 figures from just one simple button click . Bro I lost 13 k last night I’m numb to it . You have to keep looking forward otherwise you’ll just kys

>>22136752
Too busy trying to get rich now off meme coins instead of doing it the hard, but practical way.

>>22136752
Truth is, you'll be just as unhappy when you make it.

>>22142554
This

>>22140563
Getting rich quick is the only way of making it worth it.
>dude just be rich when you're 80 after spending your life working away

>>22142341
nah no benzos, albeit with a 12 year history with them. i was drunk as fuck though, that probably stopped me seizing.
>rooting for you
thanks anon. but i'm old, going blind, mother has cancer etc. it's not even a sad thing really, i just don't wanna live long if i have to do so in poverty. i wanna move back to my hometown in the south and retire in the cosy countryside, not tolerate living in a town full of apes throwing shit at eachother.
i might make it yet. maybe we'll all make it.

>>22137133
T. Literal retard

>>22136812
Stop buying shitcoins and checking prices every 5 minutes.
Find a good project(s), invest at a dip, then come back in a year, that's literally all you have to do and all you ever had to do.

I'm unhappy because I know this is my only realistic chance at owning a home that's not a cardboard box.

>>22143746

thìs. the market favors people with patience and long attention span.

>>22136752
Trading is all about intuition. fuck these TA faggots who draw lines all day and talk % retracements.

Quiet your monkey mind, have a life outside of a screen, and listen to the real true voice in your head
hint- its not an actual voice retards, its called intuition

MY REAL LIFE HASN'T STARTED. I'LL MAKE IT ANYDAY NOW AND THEN MY REAL LIFE BEGINS

>>22136752
because the houses i find on zillow that i really like keep getting bought up really fast and its pissing me off because theyve been on sale for over a year most of the time and i fucking missed LINK cause im a cOnTrAiRiAn so now i missed those houses. fuck me and fuck BAT.

I got scammed in a rug pull then catfished by a girl on the same day
I decided I’d fuck her anyway but then got rejected, why would I not want to die at this point?

I am pissed and angry because I was aware of bitcoin and tried to mine with GPUs in 2011 but managed nothing. Then thought of buying but was just a poor CS uni student and 200 was a lot just to gamble then. I remember hyping it to my friends so much back then. Then I forgot. Only observing from afar every 1 or 2 years. As I was unaware of the markets I started buying 3 years ago. Slowly I started pouring all the money I could spare relentlessly, but the market kept going to shitter. I just wanted to catch a breath, to recoup the losses. I bought the btc dip at 3k. Then though this is it I'm getting out but .. thought of swinging at 5.5k and got left in the dust. Coins I held for 2 years, finally grew fed up with and sold to switch to something else. Lost major pumps after switching. Failed to sell other pumps that retraced again. I grew fed up of the quality coins recently and started going into shitpump coins. Hesitated to sell 2x 3xs and lost a bit more now. That anon with the alternate blockfolios resonates so much.
I feel disgusted and numb with this space but I'm compelled to keep going

>>22143746
>tfw no cute 1 leg asian gf

>>22140397
Yeah you need a system and a pre determined portfolio structure to be able to take emotion out of investing. Additionally, and feel free to disagree, you are only truly investing if what you're buying creates regular income by holding it. If you are buying and your only way to make money is selling after price appreciation, then it is gambling. Most people that engage with gambling lose, hence the large amounts of angry/suicidal crypto investors.

>>22145309
Related to the "emotions" part, one thing I have noticed the other day: Alcohol is horrible. I usually don't drink, but had 1-2 drinks the other day, and while small mistakes didn't faze me usually, this time I felt extreme fear. I legitimately thought I am running risk of losing everything. Even days later. It's fucking posion.

>>22136962
Roughly in the same boat.
