"Bitcoin investment is the key to success"

[m2017]

Not everything in life is measured by profit alone. It seems to me that you have a syndrome of lost profits from which you urgently need to get rid of. Don't worry. You will still have opportunities to purchase bitcoin. Just continue to use the purchased tool as originally intended.

You did everything right by buying a laptop. In essence, this is a kind of investment in a working tool (as well as in knowledge and skills), which will allow you not only to earn money from freelancing, but also to gain new knowledge and learn new specialties. Your future will directly depend on this.

It's a little funny that the person was able to invest even a scholarship into the bitcoin, which suggests that other people's complaints about not being able to buy the bitcoin is a pathetic excuse. If you really want to, real bitcoiner will find a way to invest in a bitcoin, even a scholarship, or money saved on school lunches. And they will still make profit from it. Isn't this amazing?

It was nice to hear this story (if this is a true story) that the bitcoin benefited his investor and he didn't waste the profits on all sorts of unnecessary rubbish.

Life is about living, and we should try to find a balance between enjoying the present and preparing for the future. Prioritizing what we need. I think your decision was right when you sold BTC for your own needs. Remember the value your Bitcoin holdings have already brought to your life, whether it's in the form of a laptop, support for your studies, or income from freelancing. People come back to where success comes from, you should definitely consider reinvesting in Bitcoin in the future.

Bitcoin is the best place to store our money for the long term, on the other hand, we must be aware of the secondary needs that we need, which are always ongoing. and bitcoin is one of the places for our fields or other altcoin investments. Many things that happen in the crypto world have a beauty. Support from the digital crypto world continues to flow. This response is getting better in the future

Thinking about the profit you could have made if you have hold the bitcoin a little long should also bring you to the same thinking what could have been the fate of your education if you have not sold out your holdings to use and settle your school needs.

What you use your money to do is something that was really very important, and if you did not do it that time their could have been some negative impact in your academic, and then again since you sold out your bitcoin till now aside eduction if you where also making some other side job hustle you could have been able to earn some money which you can use and replace your bitcoin holdings if not all at least you can buy little pieces of it and still be a holder.

Isn't it better to sell bitcoin for other purposes that make your college assignments easier with a laptop? With bitcoin you can buy it while completing college assignments, it is much more important to complete your education with a laptop that is your daily companion, so you can increase creativity in skills to be able to find other sources of income with this you can invest again without having to set aside money for college.

And you don't need to regret if you still hold a few bitcoins in your wallet, it's more resistant, while you should be able to save so that the needs with the money that you have are enough so as not to disturb your investment, maybe now the price of bitcoin is not too low but one day you will feel a bigger profit.

So keep what is there, and look for other sources of income so that you can meet the needs in your investment can be increased.

Your decision to sell your bitcoins to purchase a laptop for your work and education needs was a practical one. Investing in yourself and your future through education and the tools necessary for your work is a valuable decision that will likely yield long-term benefits.

While it's understandable to feel a sense of missed opportunity given the recent surge in bitcoin's price, it's important to remember that you made the best decision you could with the information and resources you had at the time.

Selling your bitcoins allowed you to address immediate needs and invest in your personal and professional growth. This investment in yourself could lead to increased earning potential and opportunities in the future, which could ultimately help you accumulate more bitcoin in the long run.

Instead of dwelling on missed opportunities, focus on the positive aspects of your decision. You have invested in yourself, acquired essential tools for your work, and are pursuing further education. These investments will undoubtedly contribute to your personal and professional success in the long run.

Although I am a new user I haven't spent much time here on this forum. But I already had some knowledge about Bitcoin since mid 2022. At that time I was in college and knew about Bitcoin since that time I saved my college stipend money and invested it in Bitcoin and gradually saved fractions of good Bitcoins there. When I collected and invested my stipend, Bitcoin was at a much lower value, and I made a lot of profit at this point. I might have made more profit if I had held it longer, but I bought the thing by selling bitcoins for one of my essential tasks. I had an opportunity to study in university after completing my college life and there I really needed a laptop but didn't have enough money to buy it, family financial problems were also a lot. Having no choice, I sold my invested bitcoins to buy a laptop for my work needs, and I decided to study there as well as freelancing. However, the current bullishness of Bitcoin that I see in the market seems to indicate that Bitcoin will rise even more very soon.  If I had held on to my bitcoins I might have made more profit when the bull market started. But I have no way to do this because I don't have money, but I will try to raise money and invest again in bitcoins to hold on. However, I have benefited from selling my bitcoins currently and using them for my needs, but I feel like I missed out on a huge profit.

What you did was right, and you don't need to regret it because you sold BTC for work needs too. Because laptops are also part of investment tools, with a laptop it is easier for you to invest in analyzing charts and so on.

Now you have realized and experienced success from BTC because you have succeeded in buying a laptop from BTC profits. What you need to do now is buy more BTC even though you don't have a lot of money anymore, but you can pay in installments using DCA every time you have money, that way you still have the opportunity to get bigger profits from BTC when the bull market starts, there's no saying too late to buy btc.

[Dunamisx]

I will also advised that you should never regret taking the decision you made, because you can always have more opportunities to make Investment and earn as well from it, the mistake most other people did was that they use the money meant for other things which they couldn't afford holding on bitcoin for long to Invest and when it's due time, they regret making an investment because they might be probably selling at lost, but you make use of your money to buy what you needed first in other or priority.

It is correct that you will try to collect Bitcoin again to invest after your needs have been met by selling Bitcoin.
You may not be able to complete important college assignments which could result in failure if you don't do them because you don't have the tools to do it.
There is no need to feel excessive because you have sold Bitcoin when you want to hold Bitcoin longer.

If I am faced with the choice of choosing one of the important tasks but I don't have the equipment to do it because I don't have the money while the other option is to sell Bitcoin by force, then I will choose to sell Bitcoin to be able to get a laptop for the important task even though it feels heavy.

Long term hodling with bitcoin always gives the most satisfying results with bitcoin, and you could have gained more if you have done that. But we all know that you also have done good with your small profits, and that is something valuable you have right now. So I don't think regretting should be what you feel, but being grateful indeed.

Now, if you think you miss bigger profits due to early selling, don't worry because there's always another opportunity to invest. Just stay patient and calm. You need to have that so you can be successful with long term hodling. For now, increase your source of profits so you can achieve your desired capital for investment, maybe not now but it will happen soon.

[Japinat]

Why are you regretting it? You said it yourself, you sold the BTC for a laptop — for your "essential tasks". What was your alternative? Fail your classes just so you can have more bitcoin?

Don't put too much importance on gains. Because knowledge(depending on what course you're taking and why you're taking it in the first place, I guess) can go a long long way.

Bitcoin investing has certainly it's best time to maximize your investment, and right now I can see that you should attend to your educational needs first before you consider long term hodling with bitcoin in order to gain higher profits. Do not be lured with bigger amount of profits, you will have all the chances to experience that later on when you have succeeded on your education.

However, that will only happen if you land a decent job in the future. When that happens, you will gain a lot of opportunities to invest, and it's up to you to set your limits as long as you can still afford your capital losses in the future.

based on your story, I conclude that you use bitcoin as a hedge for your money, you use bitcoin for short-term profits (because you don't have a job that gives you a stable income), but whatever you do with the bitcoin you have is your right, one thing that is actually quite important is that you have to invest in bitcoin with a good plan like you have to have a stable income first. without a good stable income, it will be difficult for you to use the DCA method in your investment in bitcoin, you will definitely continue to sell the bitcoin you have because you feel you need the money.

[The Cryptovator]

You invested your savings in Bitcoin and got good profits. It's something you invested in for your needs. Holding bitcoin doesn't mean you have to hold it for a lifetime and never sell it. Bitcoin filled your needs the way it should. Now you can start investing again when you can. The bitcoin journey hasn't ended, but you may still accumulate on dips, according to you. I never regretted selling my Bitcoin. I used my bitcoin for my needs. And when I had a chance to accumulate, I did it.

[Sanitough]

Bitcoin investment is not the key to success, but to be successful you need to focus on your life's goals and priorities because that will determine your future, if it's going to be successful or not. Although bitcoin investment is capable to give life changing profits, but your life should not rely on it because that remains an investment where there are full of risks and its future outcome may left uncertain.

Finish your studies first because that will lead you to a more certain and brighter future. Do not be too obsess with bitcoin profits, your greed will only lead you into unexpected losses.

Actually there is nothing to regret about your decision to sell your Bitcoin. Because it is also to meet your needs, not because of panic or other negative reasons. At least by then, you will have earned good profits so you can buy things that can support your learning. So there is no need to regret it, in fact you will be grateful because Bitcoin has helped you. And it's true, if you have another chance, there is still another chance for you to get another Bitcoin and hold it at least until the next truly bullish era.

[Hypnosis00]

I will tell you OP that there is no wrong with what you did, sometimes we need to sacrifice other things for a very important thing. You have to know that selling Bitcoin is not a regrettable moment in our life unless if we just spend the money for nothing. We don't have to regret because we still have the chance to start again. We have not focused on the price and stopped thinking " if I never sold my Bitcoin before I become rich now" because this will lead to some frustrations but instead, make a plan on how to start again.
Remember that before we achieve success, we also experience failures and mistakes.

[Bitcoin_people]

OP, as a new user you are welcome to this forum, since you have acquired knowledge of Bitcoin for a long time I think it is best for you. Now that you have made a good return on the investment and purchased a laptop for your work needs it is really attractive. I would like to say that you have done it right because people only invest in Bitcoin to fulfill their needs. Since you are interested in learning freelancing work by purchasing a laptop and it is what you need and you can definitely earn more money if you can learn it. There is no point in investing if you can't do the work with the money you invest in it and I think your investment is worth it. But I think the initiative you have taken is really good and if you can earn well in future then definitely invest in Bitcoin because Bitcoin is one of the most profitable currency.

But I think the initiative you have taken is really good and if you can earn well in future then definitely invest in Bitcoin because Bitcoin is one of the most profitable currency.

When talking about digital currencies that I know, I agree that Bitcoin is a profitable option for longterm, but it can't be said BTC is the only one. There are still many opportunities with other currencies, even from altcoins that we might underestimate. BTC has more significant potential because some significant news is waiting ahead and this is the father of cryptocurrency, so the price increase could be utilized by everyone as the easiest way to make money.

Even if you are very confident and acknowledge that Bitcoin is indeed a convincing currency, one rule you should never break is never to go all in on BTC at the moment. Yes, not to undermine BTC, but we must still use our mathematical skills to invest wisely. There are still many other opportunities that can be maximized, while BTC is an alternative that should not be overlooked.

Best practice from me to everyone is do diversify. Yes, it's essential to ensure that our investments are not solely focused on one basket. This is for the sake of financial security.

Well said, bitcoin can bring us high profits, but that doesn't mean it is the key to success. After all, bitcoin is still a risky investment, it can bring high profits but can also cause us losses at any time. The key to success is ourselves, if we try every day, improve our knowledge and constantly try. One day success will come to us. Don't depend or just rely on bitcoin investment, and do nothing and expect bitcoin to bring huge profits and wealth to us. That's just the thinking of a lazy person.

OP needs to pay attention to his studies rather than focusing too much on bitcoin, studying is his future.

[naira]

That's why investing requires the use of cold money that is not needed in the immediate and urgent future. here you have made a profit but ironically perhaps the Bitcoin being sold now has a greater value than the laptop you bought. I have the same story I have a younger brother and want to buy an iPhone by selling Bitcoin ownership from the start I have said that the price of an iPhone bought with Bitcoin will have a much different price in the coming years.  Do you understand what I mean? The longer a certain type of iPhone lasts the cheaper the price (fact)while Bitcoin facing the Halving year will certainly have bigger profits in sight you just need a little patience.

Now what's the result? I still hold Bitcoin and my little brother holds an iPhone. We bet to prove the price of the iPhone next year by the amount of Bitcoin he sold, if I'm not mistaken he was holding $1000 (±0.022)in btc at that time.
