I am saying that I have already become richer than expected, I expect to become even richer, but also, I have enough cushion in my investment and even my strategy and even my psychology that I am also o.k. if I neither become rich as fuck, even if I do not maintain the same level of excessive richness that I have already achieved and even if I become more poor.
Of course, my preference is up or even maintaining, but even while I am ready, willing and able to accept going down a bit, in the end, there is also a certain level of going lower that would start to bother me, especially if I am having to go back to being a lot more frugal like I was in my earlier years and what got me to where I am today, but I have also gotten used to a bit of a splurging lifestyle that I prefer to continue and to even increase the amount of splurging that is possible.
watching the price drop off a cliff is much easier when youre playing with house money and are already more or less ok with your traditional financial situation already.
the only time i got really bummed out with the price was when i experienced the 1st correction/crash/dip whatever, which probably happens with most people on their 1st time experiencing that 80+ percent drop.
mine was 2011-2012 when i 1st started mining.
$10 (gentlemen, start your engines) to $35 (yeah baby!) to $2 (well
that sucked)
of course i now had kick ass gpus as a consolation prize so i didnt really mind it so much.
to get that really really sucks thing again it would have to go under 2k for a while. and while it wouldnt hurt me like you i would have to adjust my lifestyle a bit. but someone whos upside down on btc will most likely have a far higher figure.
