Nice explanation there @Lucius. Probably you already earned your first 1btc long time ago.
Thanks, of course, I achieved this goal a few years ago when it was much easier to buy or earn 1
BTC. Like many others, my journey to this goal began with faucets, but at a time when BTC was worth less than $1000. During 2015, the BTC price was generally around $200 or even lower and with a good strategy on faucets which include a lot of refs I can very easily get 500 000 to 1 million satoshis per day. So in 3-6 months with only 1-2 hours per day, it was possible to get 1 BTC. Some would say "wasted time", but it paid off above all expectations.
But I don't think those reason will stop me from becoming an owner of at least 1 BTC. As of now, I am studying programming languages, signature designs, or any traditional art services that can benefit me in the long run of staying here in this community.
You have a very good and positive attitude, there is no doubt that you will succeed over time. Investing in knowledge is always worth it.
I am also thinking of making a challenge for myself where i will be buying BTC per week with a few hundred of dollars combined with earnings from any signature campaign i will be earning from at that time. I will then try to document the whole process. Just want to see how far i can go to own a couple of Bitcoins from scratch
It is good if you can afford to spend a few hundred dollars a week buying BTC, it will definitely speed up the process I described. Of course, always keep in mind that you do not invest the money you need for your daily needs, even if it means that sometimes you have to temporarily abandon the plan.
But how to increase the speed of achieving 1BTC with your saving there are some ways available like trading which doesn't need extensive skills to be honest...
Invest on gambling site's bankroll which might give you 5-7% per annum.
Trading crypto is very risky, I would not advise this to anyone who really does not know exactly what this is about. It is true that small investments can make big profits, but it is also true that most eventually lose everything they have. As for investing in the gambling site's bankroll, it is the same as gambling there is no guarantee of a return on investment, not to mention that the user is not in control of his private keys.
I also believe investing shouldn't mean lowering the quality of your life. Remember that a Bitcoin investment might also mean a loss, so if you decrease the number of food portions per day in order to invest and then Bitcoin crashes, congrats to you: you've got a double-loss.
I agree with this statement, you don't have to make your life worse for investing in something that is actually very risky. But if one gives up cigarettes, alcohol, unhealthy food, drugs and invest that money in BTC it definitely helped his health and possibly his financial security in the future.
