You should've left a quarter of your btc untouched, would not seem like a big deal then, and would sooth your frustration now, I guess. You can't have it all. Who knows, If you'd had your internet access then, maybe you'd sell them halfway there, for 3000$ and not 7000$, etc.

Truth, truth. The frustration really is just because I got rid of ALL my stash. Who knows, maybe BTC will rise to $10,000 and make it all okay. Tongue

I got into BTC about a half a year ago. It was a lot of fun, but I didn't want to spend my own money on it. (1st foolish mistake)

I found numerous ways to make free btc however. First, dust collecting, then gradually started finding better ways to get my free BTC.

Over the course of about 4 months, I collected and won approximately 7 or 8 btc in total.
I also started getting into alt coins, flipping them for extra BTC. I was around when anoncoin first launched and had a major hunch that they would be worth something someday. I had about 100+ anoncoins collected for free as well.

About 2 months ago, however, I was leaving the state for job training in welding and wasn't going to have internet access. I needed the extra cash so i cashed out ALL of my btc and anoncoins, giving me about $700 dollars. (2nd foolish mistake)

Now, home for the holidays, I log onto the computer and notice that the BTC price is upwards of $900 and anoncoins are worth about 0.003 btc.

I cashed out approximately $7500 worth of coin for a measly $700. Sad

To think, checking the computer everyday for a couple months was worth half a years salary (on a min wage job)

BTC is fucking crazy, and I really, really, really wish I would've kept my coins. Live and learn I suppose.
