i dont want to hear anyone else complaining about how unfair it is, and how much it sucks that they didnt get into bitcoin earlier.

i built a bitcoin mining rig in 2010 out of random computer parts from goodwill. it didn’t even have a case. it was bolted onto a board, mounted on the wall. i ran it for for a while for fun. when it broke, everything was recycled, including the hard drive and seed phrases.

this was at least a $200k mistake.

we are all short sighted and make mistakes. we do the best we can from where we are.

be here now.

Agree mostly regarding exploration, mistakes, and the like.

But imagine being the turbo zoomer ~18 who has been pouring all their time and energy into bitcoin for months and months, perhaps only had part time a job with a few hundred dollars to their name.

Compared to the mcboomer who has been riding the property market for 30 years, learned about bitcoin yesterday, and has just sold their house to market buy 15btc today.

Fair does not exist.

If it did, Envy would not be a deadly sin.

It’s hindsight bias. Be grateful that you understand BTC now. When you count all the normies, almost no one gets it yet.

Your mistake is being redeemed whenever you teach others to avoid the same mistake

I was one click away from buying 144 btc for $1000. I chickened out. Shortly after the mt gox hack happened and i thought i had made the right decision. Did the math yesterday, 17 million dollar mistake (in Canadian dollars)
