was a crazy journey, i joined at first, they ignore you in 2015

2018 bear market was the then they laugh at you (never heard so many told you so's before in my life, even from my ex's parents etc)

2021 ftx crash was the they fight you part

2024 trump win is when we won forever

paypal scammers forced me to start using crypto in 2015, trading it ever since 🌵 in it for the tech innit 🏜️

I’m terrified that I'm on the verge of becoming a nobody in the eyes of my parents, siblings, relatives, and friends. I’m de facto completely bankrupt. If they find out, I'll fall in their eyes forever, and they’ll kindly mock me, but I can't even handle that. I haven’t lived up to their expectations. My dad will lovingly say, "I told you so," and that will break me. Am I doomed? Three years of studying the markets, with alt season approaching—all I need to make a million is $10,000, and yet I'm deep in debt. I deserve this.

If an early Christmas miracle doesn’t happen by the end of autumn and I don’t pay off my $1850 debt, I’ll consider that they’ve won. But if I manage to pay it off, I’ll keep fighting to win, with my chances of victory strengthened by the costly experience I’ve gained. Right now, everyone is laughing, but if my circle finds out that my balance is -$1850, I’ll feel like they’ve shot me in the head, and that I’m forever defeated.
