🍕 Don't talk to people with too little chips about "long-termism": with only a few thousand dollars, how can you hold out for 5 years?


It's another Pizza Day, full of "Respect Laszlo," "HODL is faith."
It's a bit suffocating to watch.
In 2014, I had 60k LTC, and I dared to buy a car back then because I could really "afford to lose";
Now many people only have a few thousand dollars in principal, but they ask me every day: can I hold all in spot for three years?
Be realistic:
Rent, utilities, food—none of them are free?
When BTC pulls back 30%, many people are forced to exit, what can they hold long-term?
Everyone laughs that Laszlo traded 10,000 BTC for a pizza,
but at that time, at least he could afford it.
Back then, I sold my LTC too early and missed out on the Cullinan, that was my greed;
Now many people have small principal and tight cash flow, and can only look for opportunities in volatility—this is survival, not faith.
Spot trading is more like a game for those with large capital,
Leverage and high-volatility tools are more like a probability game for ordinary people—
but gambling is about strategy, not luck.
Today is 522,
I’m not advising you to be a saint, nor am I advising you to learn from Buffett.
Just want to say one thing:
Don’t let "long-termism" become an excuse for not even being able to afford a meal.
Share your thoughts in the comments:
If you only have a few thousand dollars right now, what would you choose?
A. Dollar-cost averaging into spot, slowly hold on
B. Small position trial and error, keep the rest for living expenses
C. Focus on saving money first, and talk about faith when your capital is thicker 🚬
