Easy-to-get wealth is also easy to lose.

So if you happened to buy 1000 bitcoins when it was under a dollar, you most likely would have them now, but sold at 10 bucks or something.

Bitcoin is not a way to become rich. It is a way to preserve hard earned money so you can spend it later, for example when you become old. It is not government's duty to feed you when you are old. So everything is fine, just stack sats.
