Saw this:
Which made me question everything.
But then I saw this
And then I remembered a quote from John Maynard Keynes:
I don’t have much to say. Except BE CAREFUL!
It is very easy during times like these when you see everyone and their Mama making money by selling jpegs or putting money in some meme coin to start asking, “The hell is wrong with me and why do I keep listening to these supposed “Financial Experts”?”
I mean I was doing it the other day.
It is incredibly difficult to remain on your path when it seems you are the only one missing out on all the fun. The truth is you probably are. The question becomes, “Are you willing to take the risk for the potential upside?”
Because for every one person that makes an insane amount of money there is a field of dead bodies leading the way.
For every Shiba Inu, there is a Squid Coin
Remember the rules of investing from the Oracle
The key to winning is to ensure nothing interferes with your ability to compound your money all day, ERRYDAY.
But with all that being said, it is still so difficult to not want to join the fun.
SO my advice is to have a tiny bit of play money that you expect to lose. Almost like buying a lottery ticket. You could strike gold but chances are you won’t!
But then again I might be very wrong and we all become ultrawealthy because we bought a piece. Like I said in my post “Embracing Opposite”:
There are a lot of times in life when there two ideas that completely oppose each other. We have to find the means to see things from other perspectives and not just our own. Because most of the times, the reality is both ideas have truths in them and the best solutions come from merging both ideas into one. Removing the extremes and focusing on the goals to be accomplished.
Learning to hold conflicting ideas at the same time will serve you well in this marathon, we call LIFE!
