Do you chose BTC over daily business hustle?

[Nheer]

For me I think I will prepare to have a real job while also Investing in Bitcoin.

I bet, what most of us call real jobs are 8–5 jobs. So, you don't think contracted Web3 jobs, freelancing or even crypto trading is a real job? For me, that tag of real job means nothing. What should matter and should be the determinant of a real job is what one makes from it and how steady that income comes. If you interview those who work 8–5 if they would swap places for online jobs, a lot of them would say yes if they had the required skills for it.

You have said well. I know how it feels to work 8-5 jobs I have done it before and I know the level of stress in it so I don't actually plan on doing it anymore unless if maybe there is less work load there and probably a sector where there is no much supervision. Still I wouldn't choose it over over these web3 freelancing and online jobs. These online jobs are work you do at your own convenience and they even offer more pays. But sincerely saying I don't think it's ideal to rely of trading as a full time job because of the risk involved in it. It can be quite profitable but we know how it is, it's just similar to Gambling so relying on it will definitely back fire sooner or later. If I am trading or investing i will still get something more reliable to support it so I won't depend on trading as my only source of income.

Don't mistake my words, having a job I said means having another source of income aside trading and Investing.

I don't think you need to choose BTC over a daily business hustle.  The point of BTC is to give you something to save in that won't be devalued.  Sure, you might be able to take some risk and get lucky, but that isn't exactly a replacement for income.  The best way is to work a job and use your skills to earn money, and then save that money in something like Bitcoin that won't be devalued away to nothing over time.  It doesn't have to be Bitcoin either.  It could be any asset that you feel would be a better place to park value than fiat currency.

Getting a job should be the priority, investing or trading in bitcoin will only serve as your additional sources of income, at least if you lose from bitcoin, you will not end up penniless because you have your permanent job that is giving you regular income. However, those who chose bitcoin and leave their job, I don't think they will easily do that without a backup. Maybe they also have their kind of businesses that are already working and profiting in the market, bitcoin is just another side income.

[Renampun]

You still need a stable income to support your life, you can't just rely on Bitcoin trading or investing, as it can't be expected to consistently provide you with a stable income, you need a job or business that can provide you with a regular income and a sense of financial security. so, for me, I'm more realistic and still strive for a stable source of income, although I'm also interested in the potential profits from Bitcoin, I don't see it as something that can be relied upon as a mainstay of long-term finances, I'd rather treat it as an investment portfolio that could potentially provide me with profits in the future.

Many prefer self employed job while other love privacy job, in Africa if you're always inside house people tag you jobless and even you're comfortable they might conclude to be into yahoo. Now that BTC has become major means of survival many youths prefer to be indoors doing their stuffs. Does this connotes that online job like BTC and others is contributing to laziness and lost of apathy to work? Do you personally prefer this Bitcoin trading and investment over leaving your comfortable zone to street business hustling or employment?

I have a job that pays me a monthly salary, so I make Bitcoin my side hustle. Besides, I have made Bitcoin an investment medium since the beginning because its value always increases and is also more reliable than other investments.

[Viscore]

I feel like I don't have to choose, but if we can acquire them both, the better looks of future await for us. But we can't avoid the reality that some get extra lucky with bitcoin and give them great opportunities to earn big and live their life to the fullest. And for that, they decided to leave their job so they can focus more on bitcoin.

That leads me to the idea that we all have individual choices in our lives, and what works for others may not work for us. So if one leaves their job for bitcoin, maybe that's because there is greater opportunity in there than to spend over 8 hours a day working and still making a low income.

In the long term, the value of Bitcoin increases.

But, it's not always increasing and some might be misled with that. They invest today and because of what they've read something like yours, they would have thought that their money should have multiplied.

Everyone knows that it's a reliable investment and from the beginning of those who have held it for so long, saw the importance that we should stay on it and see how it will grow.

It's not also time consuming if we have other hustles in life that we can make more money and re-invest the profits there to bitcoin.

You are right that value will grow over years, which is safe investment to make, but new users tend to feel tricked when price does not immediately go up. Trick to smart investors is to understand that big price changes is normal and that patience and time are your main strength, not rushing to trade. DCA can be the most effective way as it lets them do their other work and have your Bitcoin grow without  doing anything as effective way of holding onto their wealth.

Yes, there are still many people who hold the outdated mindset that only 8-5 jobs are considered real jobs. This is a misconception and outdated, because the world has changed a lot and we need to have flexible thinking to adapt to the current world. Any job that can bring in a good income and help us sustain our lives is a real job.

However, I also agree with you that I would not consider trading as a real job, regardless of the profits it brings. Trading is just a speculative activity, does not create sustainable value nor does it offer the stable income that a real job should provide. Therefore, they should not be classified as real jobs.

Trading and investing in bitcoin or any asset should only be a supplementary activity, a side job to increase income.

Because they have assumed that the price will increase immediately just after they have bought it. But that's a big mistake that they are believing.

All of us have experienced how bad the market is if we're thinking like that. It will cause a lot of trouble and that's going to give disappointment.

So, to best assumption is to always know what bitcoin is and how it moves. When you get a grip of how its market usually moves, you're not going to be like those who have thought of it wrongly.

One of the most common mistake of newbies that dive in into crypto or simply investing with Bitcoin on which they do believe that at the time that they would be making out some investment, it will directly be giving it some profits on what they had invested on which this is a very wrong mindset to have. They'll be able to make out those realizations at the time that they would be having the actual experience on how it looks like, at the time that they would be that investing into Bitcoin or crypto. In speaking about going full time with Bitcoin investment or crypto then it could do but just like been said that its not something that you would be able to make yourself that having the assurance in speaking on making money. Why? its never been predictable in the first place and this is something that oyu should be putting up into your mind.

Dont make yourself that being too delusional because at the moment that you would be that too careless when it comes into your decisions, then this is where you would be able to experience out that different mistakes on which it could possibly lead into those big loses on which you cant make yourself that be able to handle or bare it out. So always be that mindful when it comes into your actions.

To get this thought straight, a person should now BTC better, and understand why the price doesn't move up or down that much that fast nowadays.

Then it all would come into play and be understood.

Times have changed now. All that matters is how much you make whether it be online or physical work.
In the early days people used to do labor work to earn their daily bread but these days people can earn a lot right from their home.
So if a person is at home all day, we cannot simply conclude him to be jobless unless that person is sitting idle the whole day.
Matter of fact, many people including me have a remote job which can be done from a laptop and pays well. Doesn't mean I am jobless.

Bitcoin is not a job, it is an investment asset. No one can meet his daily expenses by just investing in Bitcoin sitting at home, but he can do it by trading, but trading is also very risky which can put a person in a lot of losses. Online jobs do not give anyone a security income because they are not long-term, so people are still afraid of it and are more motivated for a physical job. But I personally like online jobs a lot because they are freedom and the tasks can be completed sitting at home. Bitcoin is a payment medium, in return for which you can get paid in Bitcoin. So I like it a lot too. And I have been working online for a long time along with my professional life and I have received payment in Bitcoin from some clients.

An investor full time or not, actually doesn't have to go full time with it. They can do other things and still become full/part time invested into it.

I think newbies are also learners and they don't just stop after investing in bitcoin. They like to explore more and we've been there, so it's easier to understand what they want to happen.

And once they have already familiarized on how bitcoin goes, they're likely to do what's on their plan. It's either moving on to another crypto or they continue to dca and want to have more.

Totally.

Investing is not about doing it all the time - it's about doing it steadily and firmly, knowing what to do, why, and when.

Yes, it's about consistency.

And someone who's consistent is going to beat that enthusiasts that doesn't apply what they're telling to others.

There are many of those who have been enthusiastic about bitcoin but never DCAs and are waiting for it to be lower because they have their own targets on it.

But those who are consistent and whether they're newbies or not, they're doing better than them who have been telling to buy but they never apply it to themselves.

Progress doesn't come cheap, and we need to act up if we want to see it.

It applies to everybody, newbies and vets alike.

Bitcoin is not an online job; you do online jobs for people who will decide to pay you in bitcoin, and you could also choose to be trading cryptocurrency instead of working for anyone where the pay will be less than what you can earn from your trading skill. We do what gives us comfort and the type of earning we want; it's not just about leaving our home or still being indoors.

Even to this time there are people who don't know that bitcoin is a currency just as the fiat currency which you would have to offer a service for you to earn it, and not that bitcoin is a job itself. Well, whether we decide to be crypto traders or investors lurked to long term approach we can still be doing other businesses as means to widen our source of making funds than just depending on one area which when things might not be going smoothly can have major impact on us.

I have to say, there are still a lot of people who have the misconception that Bitcoin can create jobs, create a steady income. That is why many people still think that bitcoin can help people escape poverty, improve the country's economy, because it will attract investment and create jobs. They don't know bitcoin is just a currency, a payment method, it is not a company, an organization that can create jobs.

Well, whether we decide to be crypto traders or investors lurked to long term approach we can still be doing other businesses as means to widen our source of making funds than just depending on one area which when things might not be going smoothly can have major impact on us.

Bitcoin is a financial market and our participation in this market, whether it is long-term investment or short-term trading, is considered speculative activity. There is no guarantee or stability, so it would be a mistake to consider it as the main job and source of income.
