With Bitcoin price exploding, remember to keep your heads. While one might feel 50% of the way towards buying that fancy car, flashy jewelry, über toy, or making a long series of indecent proposals willy nilly ( see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indecent_Proposal ), there is more to come.

Trust me, you’ll regret buying those shiny things we distract ourselves with in this world. Think long term. Longer than the now.

If you must buy the things, borrow as much as you can easily afford to repay to buy it.

Trust me…I’m the idiot that sold 7 bitcoin to buy my wife’s minivan in 2017.

I’m the idiot that sold 100 bitcoin to pay for my (then) infant daughter’s medical bills.

I’m the idiot that donated 10’s of bitcoin to the bitcoin foundation and bitcointalk.org to keep the lights on and fund development.

Cars and toys and jewelry hold nothing for me at this point. I want the bitcoin. Hold fast to them sats. Keep working in the real world. If I would have skipped selling during my first cycle, I’d be genuinely obscenely rich. I’ll never have that many bitcoin again.
