Does anyone feel like crypto has distorted their relationship with money? After some time I've found myself frustrated with (the lack of growth) of ordinary investments, and I tend to take on greater risks too. I'm still pretty responsible but my investment strategy has definitely changed

I find it's much easier to spend money in crypto than in the real world (500 dollars on a jpeg of a ninja rabbit? Sure! 

Your favourite pasta salad dish gone up by 50 cents? Never buying it again.) 

and you can easily get used to your investments going up or down by a huge percentage, but I still manage to keep them as separate entities. 

I know that can only happen in crypto so it doesn't bother me when it doesn't happen with other investments. 

I follow simple rules too- Never invest what you can't afford to lose, never fuck with leverage, always make sure incomings are more than outgoings etc.
