Seeing that 2011 wallet wake up, a 2,486,052% surge. My first reaction wasn’t envy—it was curiosity about what it went through back then that made it resist selling.
Last Wednesday, I continued my usual DCA with a lump sum. After I bought, it dropped 2%. I was watching the candlestick chart and felt a bit annoyed—after all, I’m still in the stage of building my principal, and every penny is money I scrape out of my wages. But that wallet that slept for 14 years reminded me: people who truly end up making those kinds of multiples probably aren’t relying on timing tops and bottoms—they’ve likely just forgotten they even have that thing.
So my mindset is simple now: turn buying into muscle memory, and shift my focus from the price to my position and cash flow. It’s okay if the accumulation is slow—just don’t get off halfway.
