Call me stupid but Ive been holding most of capital in crypto…. I’m young enough to lose it and financially illiterate enough to justify the risks. However, the stress of having my portfolio go down to sub 2k from the 5k I invest back in 2019 to bounce back to well over 7k has been one hell of a turbulent ride. I cannot stress how mentally challenging it is to have large overheads such as living in London on a shit graduate wage paying 1.2k a month in housing and bills and watching almost all your savings go to – 80%.
Good luck all you diamond hands I am finally buying a bicycle I’ve been eyeing up for years and putting the majority my savings somewhere less risky – Granted not as flashy as a lambo but profit is profit and I like bikes š
