    Fuck it. The guy still went from zero to millions. Not 13 but still what? Around 2?. That’s still life altering money, and he did better than 99.99997 percent of the world. Good for him

    I don't know if he got out yet.

    I couldn't sleep going from zero to 7 figures -- 8 in this case -- in a crypto or YOLO meme. I just couldn't.

    Always have a target number and stick to it when you get into any investment. I have a buddy who recently flipped $400 into 2.9 million on some shitcoin, didn’t sell, and now it’s around 150k. Always have a number, and stick to it
    Stupid. I know how to take the payoff and compound it with a 15-20% CAGR over time. That's liquid but it takes years. 7X in 10 years. A lot of $.

    When the money is free and comes quickly, you don't think of it the same. And when all you know since Jerome turned on the money printer is green, why worry about it going down?

    Fuck this. Sorry man but we’re a one income household and I support six. I have a plan so if I hit on anything I know exactly where each penny is going. Im also bi-polar, OCD, and pretty much just a fucking mess. Im a tail end Millenial and I think part of the problem is most 32ish yr olds and younger are dumb as shit. Not you fudgie.

    They YOLO due to zero responsibilities. Maybe why I smoked crack for a few yrs before I had a son. Shit changes or something like that.

    CSB, I know, thanks.

    Always hedge on the way up to cover your initial and you'll never be out.

    I can sort of relate. Had something 1/100th that scale going with GME. Watched 110k in profit dissappear (though this was due to white collar crime and collusion). Still made great money, but I got greedy and shouldve sold at 100k profit.

    The reality is when things are rolling it seems there is no way it can come crashing down.

    That is an insane amount of money and he shouldve sold off chunks along the way up. At least doge didn't have hedgefund fuckery manipulating it to the same extent

    I get how it feels when it is rolling, but there is no need to get that greedy. The shitcoins have a shelf life. Very few will make it long term.

    So since you are all getting rich off this imaginary bullshit, could one of you at least toss a million or two dollars my way so I can afford a secondhand graphics card now that they're all being used to make your pretend money? Three million tops should get me one. I promise I'll give you a shoutout on the bored.

    Human psychology is a funny bitch. When you're several tiers away from that kind of life altering money you're clear headed enough to see the pure insanity that holding in such a volatile situation is.

    But when you're in those shoes and you've just breezed through several classes of standards of living, the next class up is always more appealing than the last. Once you get a taste you're always going to want more. We're all filthy addicts, it's just a matter of restraining it as much as possible.
