the cat eats better than me
it's not fair to punish her for my bitcoin addiction
You have to really screw up in a bull market in order to be into catfood territory, no? I mean, sure, we have had nearly a 4 month period of correction, but gosh, anyone who bought at least a year ago, or longer, should still be UP 3x, no?
Also, I saw some posters here talking about a bear market. We are not yet in a bear market; however if BTC prices are lower than $7k at the end of 2018, I might be willing to consider such possible labels....
Also, I understand not wanting to sell BTC that you already accumulated, so perhaps that is the reason for the cat food discussion.. even though on paper, a lot of us are likely still rich, but we remain nervous about parting with any of our BTC when a large number of us perceive it to be an appreciating asset in the coming months to years, but we just don't know exactly when that price appreciation is going to take place.... So I can understand being afraid to sell BTC for fiat or using BTC for consumables, such as food.
Sometimes, I also feel a bit contemplatative regarding whether I am eating out 3 times a week, and perhaps I should cut back or maybe I should cut back on how much the meals cost?
To me, it feels like I deserve a treat, even if I could still accumulate more BTC with my profits, but it just still feels so good to be enjoying some luxuries, because these current prices sure feel so much better (and I feel able to do it) than the mid $200s prices of the 2015 period.. and it feels much less guilty to be spending BTC that are in the black, and I would have never thought about spending my BTC in 2015 - when my portfolio was in the red... .. so if I ever spent any BTC back in 2015 - I always replaced it right away, in those times.
