Unfollow these “OGs” who speak with conviction about things they have no control over. Truthfully they all got lucky when crypto was on easy mode and have no real edge
You can literally full port zec right now, hit a clean 10x, retire, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it
This asymmetric only opportunity exists because the majority of people in crypto and aware of zec have lost most of their funds on 10/10 and after
What’s stopping you?
Remember, when God wanted to make David a king, he didn’t give him a crown, he gave him Goliath. Because the crown isn’t earned in comfort, it’s forged in challenge.
Get after it, whatever your crown may be.
So much financial anxiety comes from treating net worth like a status symbol. You see some stuff on the feed about how you need a certain number to make it and all of a sudden getting there becomes the only thing you care about
This is extremely prevalent in the crypto community. Thousands moving up and down in the portfolio but living paycheck to paycheck in real life. Get a 2x but you're miserable because you're still "10x" or "50x" away
Away from what? $1m? $5m? $10m? Why are you so attached to this specific number? Why does it matter? Why do you care so much? Just so you can say that you "made it?" What does making it even mean?
I mean even if you get to that number, you're not going to be a dumbass and torch it all. Whole point is to put it into long term assets so hitting "$5m" doesn't mean you're actually spending that. You probably never will if you're unable to appreciate the value of a fraction of that today
You have to live your life man. Stop attaching your wellbeing to some arbitrary future. Take care of yourself. Find a stable source of income if you have to. Allow yourself to feel rich by actively spending on what you truly value. Use money to buy presence, not just the ability to look at it
Yes you should still want to hit the "number." Yes you should continue investing. But chill out. Fuck the timelines. You make it by believing that you've already made it because you actually like yourself and are able to appreciate your life
