I’m seriously considering just pausing our home construction so I can buy sats then starting it back in a few months… how foolish is that? #Bitcoin

makes sense

How’s the wife consensus on this one?

She is generally on board. She has always trusted in buying the dip. Although we have another kid in the way and pausing construction could be a huge pain due to a short span available to work around things.

Congrats on the new human! I’ve got another one brewing right now as well. I would pause. Take the fam on a nice vacay with the proceeds in 5 years and make some memories dealing with less square footage in the meantime. If you need perspective just think about how our ancestors lived check to jowl with their animals in straw huts, no heat plumbing or nostr

It all depends on the tradeoffs.

Don't pause the construction then.

Family needs the home!

I am thinking of selling my apartment and buy 7-8 #Bitcoins

How foolish is that?

It could be a possibility to rent something for 1-2 years and buy later, in a bear market, at a 1/4 price. Of course, if you and your family agree.

Not foolish at all, but better lock in those contracts and purchase prices because printer is coming.

I’m in the same spot with buying a house.

My take away is the timing will never feel right and I’ll always feel sats fomo.

Not foolish. Great idea it works 👌

Rational thinking requires rational actions. 👍

Every time I've ever tried to time the market based on consensus thinking, it's backfired.

That said, I've just taken out a personal loan to buy sats 😬

The "few months" part is foolish. I would be ready for the unexpected. The rest - great idea.

Yeah that’s always the problem. Can you actually wait the time it takes? Or are you getting yourself stuck because it could always just go the path of “more pain than you expected” and punish you even worse when you have even fewer options.

Your video is very accurate. I feel this way often.

Personally, I hodl best (happiest, most confidently) when I have other financial ducks in a row.

If it were me I would prioritize house situation.

Send it for the kids

Do eeeetttt.

Soooo foolish. 😉 No, don't do that. 😜😎

Sounds rational but I’m biased.

I’m seriously considering just pausing my lunchtime so I can buy sats then starting it back in a few months… how foolish is that? #Bitcoin

Packing your own lunch for months/years pays dividends

Few months? Don't know where you live but winter is usually not that great for building 🤪

Depends how much you value your relationship 😂

Buy the sats bro! You can always finish your home another time. Cheap sats won’t last forever

Opportunity cost is a bitch! 😆🤣

Finish the job Guy!

you and me both my friend, but I guess an extra room for the baby coming it's a little bit more important.. at least for the wife it is.

but you have all my sympathy for your dilemma.

There’s no right or wrong answer, of course. It’s just a matter of your macro perspective.

There are some dark clouds on the macro horizon and I think Bitcoin’s prospects over the medium term depend on whether institutions have placed Bitcoin in their “risk-on” bucket or their “flight to quality” bucket. If you believe the former, you’re better off not adding. If the latter, you’re better off grabbing all you can.

its not. Place FIAT into BTC as long as below 60k. You can always build the house when BTC is at 100K.

Very foolish. Your kids can't play with sats. Buy a home if you can and let them flourish. Your children need you and a house with a garden more than the damn bitocins.

I have a house, this is construction that is finishing the basement. But otherwise i agree generally

SATS SALE MAKES US ALL DIGGING THROUGH THE COUCH CUSHIONS

If wife’s on board, do it!

real fucking Bitcoiner 🚀🚀🚀🚀

How foolish is spending fiat on anything other than acquiring more sats right now?

Seems like the calm before the next rocket launch 🚀

Depends on how your family is living right now 😄

I have another one on the way as well. Finish what you started and if business picks up in the short term, adjust accordingly. That’s my take. I like Guy’s takes and rants more but since you asked… 🤙

😂

If you’re not wrestling with that dilemma you’re not truly making economic choices. Future bitcoiners are just loading up on debt and wonder where did they go wrong in life.

Given the "our" in that sentence, probably fairly foolish. But then, my wife was never fond of camping, particularly for months on end, over winter. Some people like creature comforts.

put the home construction on a 12-21 mon 0% line of credit

Hmmm I like that!

nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev That is the exact same dilemma I have been facing the last 2 months. My reasoning was get the construction done now. Materials and many other factors will effect your decision,but it may be a different world we are living in come the near future. Get your house in order ASAP brother, literally. Stay humble and stack sats too of course. 🙏

I think this is the wrong place to ask for a balanced advice 😂😂🧡🧡

Life is so very short.

Very

Short

Not foolish, it's boolish
