easier said than done but now you know to not be too greedy and take the profits next time

I was at the bank last week discussing how they changed my contact info without me knowing.

I said the only positive was that I had more of their money then they of mine.

It contributes to a system I don't like but I still live in a fiat for a few more “cycles”

Stay humble always

I am still going ahead with my IRA stacks, but focusing more on DCA then originally planned

Thanks for sharing. For better or for worse, I remain on team “cycle ain’t over”. We’ll see. Patience is strength.

Offf You got saylor’d.

All the signs were there. I tried to warn everyone

Let it all work out.

I hear ya. Was waiting for the “the number” that would have cleared the mortgage and left some sats for a rainy day. I need to re-learn ladder in, ladder out, it seems.

I was also way too invested in the 4 year cycle 🙈 burnt a lot of money with mstr call options 😅 but I guess it just takes decades for the normies to get it 🤷

Btw as long as your debt is below the 7% real inflation of hard assets you're still profiting just don't get insolvent and you'll be fine 👍

“Everyone was saying, ‘Hurry up and buy the dip’ on Oct10 & they’re the ones who just lost money in this little crash. So, are you buying the dip this time if it drops to the low 80Ks?”

Hear your brother! I'm rolling 30 K personal debt and still buying sats whenever I can. I can always disappear right?

No debt is freedom! 💯

I blame Creed for yet another abysmal bull run. 😒

I think this dip is different. Buckle up as they say 🤷

Have you considered bitcoin+ collateralized private loans with individuals at lowish interest rates and sharing in bitcoin upside ala Battery Finance? Pay off debt, refinance with bitcoin shared upside collateral etc. Not sure what the legal would cost to paper it but at this dip, could probably get a handful of upper middle class bitcoiners to buy into that.

If you named a wine “The Dip”, what would it be?

Hey Ben,

What is the interest rate on your debt ? Why not buying STRC at 11% instead of buying out tjat debt ?

I’m in the same boat. Started my machine shop 2 years ago, also capital intensive. I didn’t take on more debt than I could get out of with hard work but I was hoping for the easy button with a bitcoin pump. In it for the long haul though so just keep on grinding 🤘

Love your ambition to be debt free. I wish you the best in your efforts!

GM🫡 Happy SATurday ☕️🙌

Solvency is 🔑

What’s the average interest on your loans? Is it due soon / can you roll it over ? I never pay off low interest loans

Im in the same boat. After college I did the "Dave Ramsey" thing. Rice and beans and paid off college as fast as possible. Did get a super cheap house in 2014. If/when the next raging upside happens, I think I am going to kiss this mortgage goodbye as well. I'm done with it all.

per aspera ad astra

Sober take. We’re gonna need a lot of wine to get through the next bear market.
