2023 is over~
When people reach a certain age, sometimes their pursuit of certain things becomes very Buddhist.
For example, Thirteen no longer has the vigor and ambition he had when he was young...
When I am alone, I think I am still the angry young man I used to be, and people call me “fresh meat” and “handsome guy” everywhere.
Finally, there came a time when I was playing football with other kids and they affectionately called me uncle. I was very pleased to see them being polite, but I felt so sad inside. It turned out that I have reached middle age.
Looking back on my half-life, I can say that I have accomplished nothing. In my early years, various opportunities to get rich and get promoted were right in front of me, but I kicked them away, thinking that these opportunities were nothing. How could you guys be able to carry my lofty ambitions?
But now, those opportunities have become unattainable dreams, and I have achieved almost nothing in my dream world.
I used to like to compete, I wanted to compete everywhere, especially for face. I thought face was very important, and it was very important to show off in front of others intentionally or unintentionally. But now, when I see people around me who are my age showing off in front of me intentionally or unintentionally, I feel very familiar. I smile knowingly, don't expose it, but just agree silently.
I know that they may not be living that well, but their strong self-esteem forces them to satisfy it in some insignificant ways.
But to someone who has experienced it, it seems so naive.
But I don’t feel so low, because I went through the same thing back then. I can only sigh silently that it’s great to be young.
2,
When I reached middle age, I finally understood that the most important thing is to live my own life well.
I have learned not to fight. I think this is also the reason why people over 35 are not welcome in the workplace. You have seen through the lies behind the boss’s chicken soup for the soul. Who would still like you?
Those people who were crazy about the cryptocurrency world with us are now middle-aged, and almost all of them who have survived to this day have already taken root in this circle.
It is not easy to take root here, especially to survive after experiencing the crazy ICO and various scams. It is really not easy.
Of course, we also missed the wealth in our hands. Back then, we met a friend who was preparing to get into Litecoin mining. We jointly invested in it. At that time, the Litecoin we had in our hands was equivalent to several lifetimes of financial freedom according to its current value.
But we didn't catch it.
When the shares were able to circulate in the secondary market, I sold them immediately when I felt I had made a profit. We met again in 2017, and we both sighed when we talked about this experience.
We all chose to buy some Litecoin on the secondary market, for no other reason than to commemorate the opportunities we had lost.
We once had more than 10 million Dogecoins in our wallets, and we swore to hold on to them forever. However, after a 20% increase, we sold them all. When we looked back, Dogecoin had increased by hundreds of times.
3,
Someone asked, do you regret losing those opportunities?
Thinking about it, I do feel unwilling, but I can't regret it. If God gives me a chance to start over, I will still miss it.
Lack of cognition, lack of mental capacity, and lack of preparation...
Even if any wealth falls into your hands, you will not be able to catch it.
Of course, there are many people who have achieved financial freedom on the Internet, but most of them are just bragging, because in all these years of experience, there is not a single person who has truly achieved financial freedom by holding currency.
Those who are financially free mostly make large bets on a popular track, mining, and B-side business to get rich overnight, which is a very high threshold for ordinary people.
Therefore, we must be wary of those who show off their wealth online. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Anyway, if I achieve financial freedom, I will never pretend online. The principle of not showing off money is deeply rooted in everyone's bones.
Wouldn’t it be nice to secretly take the money and enjoy life?
Letting everyone know that you have become rich will only bring endless troubles. Relatives who have nothing to do with you will come to visit you, and your kindergarten classmates will also contact you...
They're all after your money.
Even the closest relatives in this world will certainly hope that you live a good life, but they will never hope that you live better than them.
This is human nature, and there is no need to darken human nature.
I just want to say that when we encounter a 2B who shows off his wealth, we must carefully identify him and don’t be fooled by him. If you do that, you will be even more stupid than him.
2023 ends and 2024 begins. I hope we will have a better life in the coming year than this year.
It is so difficult to make money, especially for ordinary people, but here, there are a lot of opportunities. It is almost impossible for a mature investor to lose money here.
The only pain point is: 99% of investors are immature.
I hope that by 2024 we will be better and better and become that 1% of mature investors.
