  500 at 24 cents


while all of the above was listed and sold or is still listed.

I am stacking about 5 ltc and 10000 doge a month mining.

when every thing sells out or when I stack 20000 doge with the current mining I will stack again.

My partner hodl all his doge and is pushing 700,000 doge on hodl

All Doge stuff is due to Elon Musk.

I sort of feel bad that when the Robinhood thing happened I told my family to get their money off of there. My sister had bought some Doge for some random reason. She was like "at least I made some money on that Doge thing, I bought it at 2 cents, now its worth 3 cents".

The self directed IRA is well worth going through the hoops to setup. Thanks to WO I learned of the possibility over a year ago and decided to do it. Best decision I've ever made. Yes there are yearly fees but so what. It's worth it to take control of your retirement account. Don't sleep on this especially if you have a decent chunk sitting in a regular 401k or IRA not doing much.

Weird stuff is going on. Yes BTC is kind of putt putting but my kid is going on about his DOGE mining (I've reactivated a few Titans, and they are fucking PROFITABLE? ON DOGE?? IT'S THE GOD OF SHITCOINS!!!!!)

So what's up? People just nuts? I'm not seeing relative movement on LTC, it's still pegged at .004 to a BTC instead of the .012-.018 before the 2019 implosions.

I just happened to think the ancient Y gives a more menacing feeling to the last line. Yes, hybris = hubris. Some Greek y's became u's, some stayed y. But I dun wanna lurn nobody nuttin!

That's more or less how I quit. I realized quitting isn't an action, smoking is.

To smoke you have to acquire a cigarette and a source of fire. Then you have to ignite the lighter or match. Then you have to light the cigarette. Then you have to inhale the smoke. Those are all actions you have to take to smoke a cigarette.

To "quit", just do nothing.

In other words:

Every time you put out a cigarette, you've already quit. Just don't start again. It's that easy.

I understand if you don't like him, for his style, or perhaps for acquiring so much Bitcoin.  But he has arguably done more to help the Bitcoin economy than most of us here by a long shot and in under a year.  The conference he hosted alone may have accelerated our chances of hyper-bitcoinization by quite a bit.

Or perhaps you take issue with his assertion that we might not see the typical 80% pullback this time?

He is not the only one saying that.  Dan Held believes it, and Preston Pysh has articulated it beautifully.  I like the latter's track record of selling the top of the last cycle, and saying recently that he has no plans to try that this time because he believes he is more likely to sell when he thinks it's a top, when it's just a little correction.  He thinks there is a large chance we see the boom/bust thing begin to fade during THIS cycle.

No one knows... but I also am placing my bets on less of a pullback this time as well.  Which is fairly meaningless, since I do not trade. And if I am wrong?  Well I am wrong, and I still have all my Bitcoin.

But I think Saylor will go down in history along side Lazlo as one of the people who put faith in what Bitcoin was at the exact time the market needed that sort of hero.  He is certainly a "convert" with spirals in his eyes... but who are we to criticize that?

Course.. you sort of criticize everyone and everything.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I gave up pipes and cigars a long time ago. Part of it was switching to a different stim drug (coffee, now meth), the other part was restricting when and where I could light up. Now it's down to craps tables and bars in Vegas. And yes, it's still nice.

The other oddity is to find something to do with your hands and mouth. I still chew on pens, and hold them just like cigarettes....

Well, sure, but so many people bidding at that time would have driven up the price per share. You can't rewind the past and just change one thread, don't worry about it :-)

I did it like this:
https://www.amazon.com/Allen-Carrs-Easy-Stop-Smoking/dp/1405923318

Immediately stopped without problem.

This is Level 1, though.
Then you have to know how to keep yourself from ever touching tobacco again, acknowledge that it is a deep addiction, and look at what you don't ever want to throw away: Your newly won freedom and feeling of life.

This is Level 2, then.

Level 3 is being able to smoke some once in a while, while KNOWING that it is useless and that you do it because of the addiction and because you think you are stronger than the addiction, while being free to say no to smoking in between (months, years).

Level 2 and 3 are the ones that are harder to reach without falling back to be a smoker.

And as of Level 3: I was feeling like a damn idiot after these five or possibly up to ten occasions when i choosed to smoke. When you know how ugly you feel about yourself after smoking again, it's MUCH easier to stay away for a longer while, i mean years.
I had my last cigarette about four years ago, while i was smoking a spliff last time on new year's eve 2018 or 2019 (maybe both times?). Quit regular smoking three times, last time about 11 years ago.

Just read the book. It's no promise you will stop, but you'll learn a lot about nicotine and yourself.
Good luck and enjoy  


EDIT: From the movie "Sin City" (Based on Frank Miller's classic):

Don't light the next one.

You buy both and the reason is to be diverse.

Although I won't be buying any stocks of any kind.

Sure, and people who are in those kinds of situations should be investing whatever their cashflow might allow, and not more.  Can we agree on $10 per week?  That gets you about 4.3BTC.. and that is NOT even accounting for micky123 saying that he had 21 BTC at one time, which suggests a whole other dynamic going on, including the fact that he has had some disposible income or he was engaging in deranged gambling which is surely not a recommended strategy whether rich or poor, even though rich can afford it more, but poor people seem to engage in such stupid-ass conduct too.

I understand that there could be some who might not be able to go as high as $10 per week, but still work with me on this.. instead of assuming too many facts that are not even presented by the case of micky123 that were presented.


 Lottery tickets?  Not sure I would characterize bitcoin as a kind of lottery tickets even though bitcoin does seem to have an asymmetric upside potential.. which is a similar, but different concept from "lottery tickets."


 Yes we were,... for a long fucking time.  Snap out of it.


 Well maybe you have learned something over the years?  Perhaps?


$10 a week.. let's try that.  I understand that not everyone has $10 per week, but micky123's assertion that he had 21 BTC at one time does seem to imply pretty damned strongly that he could probably put together $10 per week.. even if he had to try to get smarter during the process of making that sustainable for more than a few weeks.. and perhaps make it sustainable for 7 years or so?  perhaps?  perhaps?
 


You can bet or speculate all that you like.. who fucking cares?  Do they have $10 per week?  Could have they put together $10 per week to be sustainable for the past 7 years?  Then they would have had about 4.3BTC.. go figure?
 


 I could give less than two ratt's asses, even though you are making shit up to make your strawman argument and then to win an argument that you made up.. great job.  You are quite the rhetorician.


I don't hang out in those parts, so I don't really know.. and I am not even sure if it matters very much.. there are a lot of dumbass shitcoiners out there, and if they happen to be on the forum, then so be it.  Maybe they might learn sum kind of thingilie sooner or later? Perhaps?  perhaps?
 


While you seem to be a glass half empty kind of guy anyhow, so I sometimes wonder how you have gotten by this long in your life.
 

I think that you like to argue for the mere sake of it, and to make shit up in order to support some dumbass argument that hardly even relates to the points that I was making in my earlier post.. except perhaps tangentially.

 

Get a grip, eddie not ready.      


 



I am still going to judge someone who had 21 BTC being able to put aside $10 per month for 7 years or longer and that might NOT be over invested.

If you want to describe some circumstances to defend your counter-thesis, then go ahead, be my guest.  I still believe that I made a good point, and I am not failing and refusing to account for potential problematic cashflow areas that some people likely have.


Isn't micky123 making my case for me?  He is not someone who is lacking in disposable income, and sure there are likely cases that are more desperate than micky123's in which some BTC have to be shaved off along the way, but I am also referring going from 21 BTC to less than 1 BTC.. and considering that as a problematic way of treating a BTC investment.  I am sticking to my earlier points, and if people want to give some other facts for the selling of BTC and to justify it, then please, state your case or your hypothetical, which would likely be quite different from the factual circumstances described by micky123.

 Every time you feel like a smoke, give your knuckles a good crack with a rubber mallet.  Either you wont want to smoke anymore or you wont be able to hold a cigarette.

 edit: when I quit, I just quit. There were 3 rough days - I substituted the cigarettes for gum and sugar-free candies.

 

Yes, and this inability to invest early in some Internet companies (FB, GOOGL) was the reason I had an eye on bitcoin's meritocracy.
The way SEC, CFTC, etc ACTIVELY preclude regular people to invest early is appalling. To my knowledge, no other OECD country does it.
They want to have a ruling class and a permanent underclass with specific rules about "accredited investor' ($1 mil).
Now they invented even more gradations: qualified investor ($5mil), qualified purchaser, etc.
In addition, now (since 2017) they preclude US investors to invest in basically any token, not that many here cares, but still.
They (SEC) are basically pauperizing the american population.
I am not sure why I am upset about it, since I DGAF anymore.

Looks more like a surcharge for crypto and an even bigger one for credit cards to me.

Fuck fuck fuck Wall Street. So fucking corrupt.

I just did the math. Had the public been able to invest directly in Coinbase stock pre-IPO back in 2013 at $0.20/share like the exclusive angel investors, they'd all be up 1250X their investment. Likely much better off than just putting that money into Bitcoin in late 2013.

(Although I'm not saying not to buy Bitcoin, that's a no-brainer to own the underlying asset directly).

This is why the 1% gets filthy rich on stonks, while the general public gets shut out of the game.

Saylor can go fuck his lil selfie..


hahahahaha
 

Any advice on how to stop Smoking Cigarettes?
