Topic: Take good care of yourselves - page 3. (Read 639 times)

In reality, no one can predict what will happen tomorrow, and age has no bearing on when someone will pass away.but nevertheless we are to play some rules of risky in order to meet our desire.Anyone who aspires to be wealthy must make some sacrifices, particularly in terms of how they spend their it money.

However, I'm not saying we shouldn't spend money on our health because it's crucial in all facets of life. But what I'm trying to convey is that when we're making an investment for the future, we need to set spending limits—especially in certain areas, like buying trendy items when we are building up any investment particularly Bitcoin investment, it will be difficult for our investment improve if we are spending out from it.

All this is so until you have a couple.
If someone is a crypto enthusiast, eager to get rich quickly, then it's better to be a bachelor. Those who have a family will understand me perfectly now.
The fact is that any person will put a family above the goals of enrichment, and in any case, it becomes harder to earn in the crypt, since there are fewer needs and less time.
But!
Family is very motivating to work! You begin to feel a charge of energy, because you earn for the people you love.

Yeah, it is important to get your children a life where they can do whatever they want. If your children want to do something but can't do it because they are forced to work, then it will not be really a smart idea to keep it going. I personally believe that I would have written books if I had the time, and I would have spent many many days learning how to write a good book.

You may want to become a cook, some other person may want to draw, some other may want to be a trader, or a wall street banker, some other may want to be a teacher, everyone has different wishes in life and if you do not worry about money at all, then you could work towards that. If I can make enough from bitcoin, I want to leave a world where my children can do whatever they want.

Yes, you are right, no one knows the type of children God will send them, we all hope for the best kids but things don't always come out as we hoped for, the end game of everyone's hustle is to have a good life.

I plan to hold my Bitcoin for the long term too but I am not so desperate about it like it's not a must for me because all I ever want is a good life, money will make your life easier, so yes Bitcoin can make anyone's life better too. We must not plan to hold Bitcoin to the grave, it won't benefit the holder.

Enjoy yourselves while you are working hard to achieve your goals, let this be your end game.

I totally dig your outlook on the whole Bitcoin shebang and the mad chase for moolah. Like some brainy philosopher dude once spouted, "Money can't snag you happiness, but bawling your eyes out in a swanky Merc sure beats doing it on a two-wheeler." No doubt, a fat wallet can score you some sweet comforts and security, but let's not forget the priceless goodies in life, like love, health, and those happy vibes.

That said, we can't just brush off the crazy profit potential Bitcoin and other cryptos are packing. But, as you nailed it, we gotta find that sweet spot between raking in the dough and taking care of ourselves and our loved ones. I mean, what's the point of all that cheddar if we're flying solo, right?

It's really ridiculous, imagine getting bitcoin for a couple of years and still skinny.Let's make sure that our health and time for crypto is balance, don't priority your bitcoin over your health because oneday, once the bitcoin become super high and you are dying, the years you've been holding bitcoin will be waste because how will you use that if you died right ? So it's important to take care of yourselves/ourselves before becoming rich. Give time to yourself and accumulate daily needs.

It's possible that the  U.S.A government can kill bitcoin, not just bitcoin but all the crypto's I think. We should still care about this problem because if all of the government's in every country joined force together, it will became threat to us because cryptocurrency is our life and if they kill bitcoin our life will be worst. Hoping that their plan will stop, our world needs bitcoin and crypto currency  and it's really helpful to our world.

I keep saying this, life is short, take care of yourself, in as much we save and invest we shouldn't forget ourselves. If there's something you need to do with your money, do it. Take care of yourself and family. You don't have to be too uptight with your money because we won't be here forever because all the investments you're dying for will still be here.
It's right to have goals and objectives in life, but don't forget to have a life. The main purpose of investing is to have a better life, so when you have an asset and you can't give yourself a better life then there's no point in having the asset.

This doesn't mean it's wrong to keep assets for your children, it means take care of yourself too. Live your life but have priorities.

We all have some kind of goal in our life. We work to reach that goal or making that dream come true. Depending on our needs, we can invest in multiple savings. One could be to achieve our goals and one to help us in emergency situation. If we can't get what we are HODLing for, then it has no meanings.
And having millions is not everyone's dream. People can be happy with what they can get 3 time meals. They are the happy one. You have said some great words, OP. This is how life should be. We are not here to live forever. Let's enjoy what we have and stop stressing. Anything that is happening on an extreme level is bad. We should put a limit on everything we are doing. Not all of them maybe, but some which are important.

This is good to consider since we consider it as cryptocurrency so we should at one way use it for what it is intended for. It should be used when there is nothing that we can do to get money to be used for important things. This can prove how this digital currency can be useful in the daily activities that we can do.


I agree since we should never compromise the basic necessities just to have a portfolio of investments in cryptocurrency. Basic needs should be the main thing to consider. We should always assess our financial capability. Assess how well you can provide your needs since what's the point of holding the coins if you will have hard time in dealing with your financial obligations. It is indeed important to always put ourselves first and always take good care of ourselves.

It hit me pretty hard right now. I mean, while reading this, I was really struck by this, not in bitcoin but in my work-life balance. I mean, it is very stressful, we don't have leaves, and even on holidays we still continue working. I will be taking an emergency leave tomorrow just to relax and try to recover from my stress. This is a good reminder to those who keep grinding just to earn bitcoin (i am also one of those as having is 1 year away), so we should have time for ourselves like have a drink and have fun! I am just glad that I have this kind of behavior, like having celebrations every month, but when it comes to work, I would not be taking a leave because my job is my life.

Truth is that even if you will your bitcoins to your next of kin, they may just squander away it all ten times faster than it took you who suffered to buy and hold it spent.

This is a very true statement.

I try to keep my bitcoins bad long as I can, but if I have pressing needs that I know some percentage of my bitcoins can solve, I do not hesitate because I know that it is only the person who is alive that can really spend and use bitcoins.

In taking from my bitcoins, I try not to empty my portfolio, and before I take, I always have a strategy to replace it.

Bitcoin is going to outlive everyone of us so I see no reason to have the mindset to hold it forever while depriving ourselves of the finest things of life. Of what use is accumulating bitcoin to create wealth through holding at the expense of your wellbeing? Life in the present, take time to enjoy what you have assiduously worked, the fruits of your labour with family and friends because nothing is promised and nothing is guaranteed.

Truly, can’t argue with OP here.

It is necessary to balance between making money and enjoying life. You can't always chase after the accumulation of bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, sacrificing your present, hoping that one day this will make you a millionaire in the future and then you will live a luxurious life. If it is possible to save without harming yourself and your family, then why not do it. But if there is an urgent need for money, then there is no need to be stingy and part with currencies with a light heart. For example, NicNacCoin did just that - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62059702

Bitcoin is a tool that allows you to achieve your goals, but not an end in itself.

I can literally relate to this since I didn't have a father an a early age, and I also have the same situation as my relatives split my father's allocated inheritance to all of my relatives leaving only a small plot of land that me and my 3 siblings have to cultivate. When I was young, our family was always taken advantage by our relatives (father side) since my mother doesn't have the power to retaliate given that her position isn't that well off in our household a lot common in an eastern household/tradition, and due to that some plots, harvests and even opportunity given are not passed down to us. I am the oldest grandson in my father's side, and the funny thing is that my father is also the oldest son on their family, but at that time that they are milking us all the benefits, they just immediately assume that I was young and underage at that time and I still don't have rights to complain, so for the sake of "management" they took the liberty of managing it on behalf of my father (blatantly scamming us). At the very young age I am already aware that they are milking me and my family, I also once confronted my grandmother and mother at that time, but they just couldn't help it. Although it felt bad at that time that it even reach to the point that I was even threatened by my uncle which is the brother of my father, now after so long, they no longer have the voice to speak in every family gatherings, in fact I am the one already dictating most of the family decisions now and even my grandmother's properties.

I was all aware this whole time while gritting my teeth and sucking my thumb not to take revenge but to be able to reverse the table where my odds are against. I know it's really hard, but on those times, I learnt to be independent, struggle as hard as I can, and be responsible for all the decisions I made. Now, I can gladly say that I have survived and will survived whatever comes.

To be honest when push comes to shove, there is no one ready to be there for you, there might be some but for  sure they will have reasons not to fully help you, you'll just have to learn to live with this and struggle and I do really admit that one thing that really matters is to take care of yourself along the way.

If I were in the place of the OP, I would send you in the ass, because you are ironic not only with a smile but also with a speech, over the grief of people. But your nickname speaks for itself, no wonder.


What is the OP doing wrong? Why so much cynicism?


OP, I'm on your side, you're right about a lot of things. Our parents live for the sake of their children, constantly saving for themselves. By old age, having accumulated some capital, some become victims of ingratitude. Not all children understand that everything they give to their parents will have to receive as a boomerang in old age. Some simply consider themselves eternally alive.
But you are right that you should not deprive yourself of everything. You need to live, trying to please not only loved ones but also yourself. After all, if we do not love ourselves, then we will not be able to make others happy.
Waiting for a profit from Bitcoin, putting your life and time on the line, does not always end colorfully.

I share the same mentality as you - life is not just about making money and becoming rich. Having a lot of money and reaching a million dollars is not the ultimate goal of life. I believe that someone who has a sufficient amount of money in their bank account, lives in happiness with their family and friends, and spends money on things that make them happy is achieving their goal.

Just sitting with millions of dollars in your bank account while your life is miserable does not make sense. It all comes down to your mentality and how you can make your life better.

As you rightly say, everyone should enjoy their life. While it's important to work hard, one should also prioritize their health and happiness, By the way, I'm sorry to hear about your father, and I hope his resting in peace now. It's true that no one knows when they will die, which is why it's essential to live a happy life, with less stress and much love.

Eating a balanced diet, good sleep, and constant exercise are very important to everyone. There is no need of holding your Bitcoin when you or your family members are dying of hunger There will always be many opportunities to buy because Bitcoin is still in its early stage. Medical attention is also important. Sometimes because you don't want to spend much on medicals some persons engage in home remedy practice or self-medication which is not proper. We should not also engage in different jobs because we want to invest. These jobs will always overstretch us and make us miss rest, sleep, and exercise. Some people sleep less than four hours per day because they want to earn and invest more in Bitcoin.

People will always say that they want to live an inheritance for their children or they want to make their children financially stable. How are you sure your children will make proper use of these investments? We should take care of ourselves because we have just one life to live.

Hodling is not for everyone. A Bitcoin hodler should also have something else that should sustain and fund their daily expenses, possibly something that will drive their attention away from how much worth of Bitcoin they own. That way it will be more easy to hold for as long as they wish without fear of depriving themselves anything.

If there is nothing else that generates income for a Bitcoin holder then they have no point holding because they will own end up depriving themselves their basic needs as well as the good part of livelyhood.

This is why I never say it's bad to spend your coins to feed yourself, family needs, health, college or something that will make your life brighter.

Bitcoin is good as an investment, but it can be used as a currency too. So if your financial are still not stable, it's fine to use your coins and you can hold it until your financial already stable. Learn a new skill to get a job with better payment, don't miss a good chance if you can do it and you need to sacrifice few thing.

I think that many people simply aim too high, and there is a saying that says "he who flies high, falls low". If someone thinks that $1 million will solve all their problems, then they are greatly mistaken, because that money will melt in the blink of an eye, because the more money you have, the faster you will spend it.


That's one of the human flaws, they grab and collect so much that they don't even realize that their life has passed without them doing a lot of the things they wanted to do. In the end, fate plays with them and everything is inherited by someone who doesn't appreciate it at all. Therefore, I agree that everyone should live in such a way that they do not deprive themselves of some basic life needs just because you think that the price of BTC tomorrow will be higher than today.

In the end, we should use Bitcoin as much as possible as a currency, because that's the only way it will fulfill its purpose.
