Anon, I also went all in on ETH in 2018 at $600, excepy my definition of all in was taking out a $40k loan. Which I am now paying ludicrous amounts of interest on. I will pay over $100k by the time its paid off. ETH better fucking moon hard.

Honest question - do you have any other assets that you could have just sold for capital instead? Why take a loan?

Why don't you just file for bankruptcy and wipe your debt out? Sure it fucks up a lot of your life but if you're going to wind up paying off $100K over time wouldn't it theoretically be better to take a big credit hit, wageslave with your current skills, and buy back in now ASAP?

You're essentially looking at a 4X just to break even on ETH.

>> No.13419681

>>13419656
To be honest a lot of us are so far down 4x to break even isn't that crazy. The bigger issue is that he won't ACTUALLY break even because he owes interest. It sounds like he in reality needs something like an 8-10x so he can cover the interest payments.

Pretty much. I feel like a retard buying when I did. I'd still be down if I bad bought BTC at that time instead but by literally only half as much.

Can you really just steal 50k in a loan and then get that debt absolved through the government? Literally what reason do I have to not bank an easy 50k after I pay off my mortgage and car loan in 10 years and no longer need credit?

You realize your assets are liquidated to pay your credits before discharge, right?

Also your credit is absolutely destroyed for 7 years (after which it's reset).

What debt did you realistically have prior to 21? You can't discharge student loans.

>> No.13419904

>>13419863
I don't know, I just know that it wipes most of your debt excluding student loans and there's only one other type of debt it won't erase. The catch like the other anon said though is that they quite literally make you sell off all your valuable shit. It's great if you're a degenerate gambler trying to make it and take out an assload of loans and are in massive amounts of debt I assume which is why I suggested it.

Also doesn't eliminate obligations for things like child support and alimony.

Ah right I think that's what I was thinking about. My parents thought it would be a smart idea to file for bankruptcy on a house they lost only about $10k in at the bottom of the housing market. The same house today is worth over $250K. Honestly for my first housing purchase I'm considering waiting for about 6 years and going to an auction
