Can you 20 mil? That's as small as I can go. Wire me 10k first just  to mark the path.

As a former bodybuilder and athlete I have some things to say.

You can't out run a fork, period.

You deserve nothing, you ben a good person you can have "x" it won't hurt. It will. Stop.

Allot of things labeled as healthy are not, especially if it comes out of a box or container.

Your workout probably suck. Showing up and going through the motions is nothing but a participation trophy. I see people in the gym for years make zero progress.

If progress escaped you, you need a trainer/dietician and a food scale. Period.

There are some supplements that can help an already good routine, but they can't do it for you.

If you are leaving the gym not covered in sweet and fail to remember where you parked, your not working hard enough.

Hello, I have reason to think English isn't your first language so I understand things sometimes come across differently. That's just fine my friend.

Anyways you use ALLOT of words to express emotions in buying. Emotions should be very distant or surpressed when making decisions with money especially when investing with "not spare money".

Buy small bits at a time as to not extend yourself and cause emotional worry. Don't go all in build a cash war fund and buy a few percent at a time and enjoy your life not pasted to a screen worried about money.

I want them to get liquidated and lose! Lose baby lose your asses and drive that price lower so I can buy more my win! I would for an exchange to belly up and may get into the teens!

This is war, not a drum circle

I challenge anyone here to got to a garage sale, flea market, coffee shop or gas station without selection and buy something with a bitcoin. Go for it see what happens. Nothing but blank stairs.

Sure as an investment sure it CAN and will excel at some point. What if you need some money for a oral surgery and you need cash. How does bitcoin look when your 33% down at the moment? It's going to take some work to make up that loss. Little bit of evil fiat on hand is handy, I can cash in the silver or gold at spot or slight loss now. No biggie.

What happens if a screaming opportunity comes by but your all lock up in BTC undrwater with no other assets on hand? You lose. (opportunity cost).

I suspect allot of you are really young like 33 or less and haven't seen enough and parrot other is threads.

Oh it's limited amount, oh it will go up over time, it's so portable and fast... Blah blah..

May be true but stop counting on the best possible scenario and hedge against middle of the road worst.

Read the books by the winners, not listen in an echo chamber of what you want to believe.

Don't forget if your looking portfolio diversity you can hold preciouses metals (or a blend of) in an ETF and that negates the physical security part. But now your on radar.

If you can't have bitcoin, you could possibly own Micro Strategies giving some exposure to BTC.

Think outside the box people
 I personally have a blend of this.

All in one one, you are stupid, period

Set half aside for something smart.

Blow the other half scuba diving, chasing women and food.

Check this out

Over the years I have posted all kinds of thing for sale in the Bay Area for bitcoin. Not one sale. Change to dollars it's gone.

I challenge anyone to buy a used mower or anything off a neighbor, somebody you don't know already. I challenge you to buy groceries or a tank of gas directly with bitcoin... I can with gold or silver.

Comparing investments a to b is dumb. Your portfolio should be a symbiotic blend...

Go check out Ray Dalio and then his all weather fund.

Y'all gonna loose your ass's with a one legged investment scheme. There isn't one example of it in the wild

Bitcoin or Gold ( or silver) argument comparison is STUPID. My apple is better than your oranges!

The correct answer is a balance of both among other things including cash in your portfolio.

All hell breaks loose and you need some gas. I can trade a few silver coins (or cash) for some gas. But I can't even buy gas now with bitcoin. Banking collapse what off ramp are you going to use to get to fiat?

Completely different instruments for different things. F'n noobs

OP, you are spot on, most here have no clue.

Additionally when you sell something at a profit you get to pay taxes! yay!

When I borrow against myself I pay NO taxes.... Oh boo  I know.

I  do it against my 401k all the time,  say I want a new truck. Borrow against my 401k, guess where the interest I do pay on it goes? TO ME! win-win.

Down side is it does nothing to build a credit rating. Okay, wait to the end of the year and snag a zero percent auto loan for the Mrs.... boom.

Aliens did it to manipulate the interstellar currency...

or.

Bitcoin followed the markets down like it ALWAYS does and knee jerks at ANYTHING Musk mutters.

Call me crazy, I think it's the former.

Government (FED) SAID they are going to manipulate the markets! Their is no conspiracy they are trying to bring in inflation. Read the news much?

Thank-you Elon, I now can add more at a cheaper price! Blending down my avg cost!

2.8 mil  is not a whale IMHO. He is dipping his little toe in to see what's up.

Kinda, I just added MicroStrategy to my IRA.

Depends on if your alpha, bete or sigma male.

I am a  sigma. Quiet lil safe home where I serve a chica like an ATM and treated like a piece furniture isn't me.

Most beta's put the chain of marriage around their necks and call and call it happiness. Fucking misery to me.

I want to do what I want, when I want and how much. That's my happiness.

Logic would tell me that there isn't much bitcoin left to mine, what about 2 million last time I checked. So as a supply side it's already there.  So I would expect a slightly muted response over other halving. Fomo leading to a false bull.

I will happily give my BTC and haircut at that time and take peoples money

That's ALLOT of strippers and cocaine! I'd die trying.....

What I take away is jealousy from the op. Probably can't get the girls with his dashing looks and personality so he hates on the ones that do. Enjoy being a monk fingering your bitcoin, there is more to life than money. No man ever laid on his death bed and said " should done more bitcoin" but I assure you he was thinking about the girl he shoulda.....

Listen to me. I am an exploration diver and my brother is a SEAL. Myself broke both ankles twice, 3l and 1r knees surgery, broken right hip, 2r shoulder rebuilds and 1 left. I can run 10 miles and swim one before breakfast and still throw weights and ladies on the daily. My brother more or less the same. I am 50 he is 46.

We both live mostly pain free (aside from pain of an activity but who cares).

YOGA YOGA YOGA for the body and mind.

and when you done with yoga do more yoga.

Swimming is also another great activity.

Honestly your pain sounds more like stress than any injury, just say'n

Admittedly a tad jaded here, I accept that. I know lots of people rich and poor that are in fantastic (seemingly) marriages. Those marriages were conceived 20 -25 or more ago when times were different. The age of the internet has killed it, it's to easy to get attention when you think your not getting any. Women cheat 65% of the time and file for 90% of the divorces (US)
