Sold most of my NEM over the last few days as I needed the cash. No regrets even if the price goes to $10. I still have enough to hold an interest in NEM and it still is one of my favorite coins with the biggest potential among the top 10
That is correct reason. And also "acceptable" - though of course you do not need other's acceptance
You have earned all that cash by hitting the importance peaks in the competence
I agree. The great thing about NEM is that there is good wealth to be made no matter what stage of the coin's life you enter or exit. I sold off a bunch earlier in 2017 (when it had risen to 11 cents!) and paid off our vehicle and some other consumer debt. Sure, if I'd known it would have hit a Dollar a few short months later I might have held on, but to be honest I have no regrets. You can't buy the peace of mind that comes from getting rid of burdensome debt. We felt the relief almost immediately. Later when I had some free Bitcoin I bought some back at higher prices, though not nearly as much, and if I sold that now I'd be in profit again.
If you bought NEM closer to the beginning, it would be perfectly rational to sell some and take profits now. With that said, I would also be happy to recommend that anyone start buying it now as I believe it will go even higher. So, if you're selling some off to take profits now, it's great to know that you're likely selling to someone who is equally thrilled to buy, someone who is likely to make out really well down the road when it's their turn to sell.
I just love coins like that!
