I'm basically in purgatory right now:
>Still wagecuck
>Basically guaranteed retirement at some point in the next 3-6 months.
>Could get fired right now and NEET it up on the unemployment for 6 months before then.
>Choose to wageuck even though I hate it because it makes the time go faster.
It's frustrating as hell but I know how close I am to never having to do this shit ever again.

How does it feel that the majority of people can't dream of retiring until 65?

Ill be ok no matter what happens, I have a myriad of valuable, employable skills. Its just to what degree I make it. Wageslaving 40-50 hours per week and working on my business for 40 (which is profitable, Im just having trouble scaling) doesnt seem to be burning me out. My goal would be to "make it" and not have to wageslave by the time I'm 30, which is looking realistic, but I'll still be working at something no matter how much I make it.
Sitting around all day doing nothing doesn't really interest me, I need constant projects on the go or I lose my mind.

Ive literally had almost a dozen chances of "making it" and Ive lost them all.
>lost 2500 links swing trading before the run
>lost 1 btc and 15 eth the same way
>sold 250 GME at $13 before it went to $400
>had thousands of shares of a covid play biopharm stock that went to $50 and I sold for pennies
>had hundreds of workhorse at $3
>had about 10k on different alts everything from matic to algo to rsr that have recently done 300%+ gains that I moved to defi /biz/ scams just before alt season started and lost everything
Plus a bunch more. I joke a lot in here but I really am at the end of my wits anons. Been on the chan since 2008 so I know sarcasm and self depreciation is the norm but somedays I really do feel like unironically killing myself. I have put a lot of time and energy into "self improvement" to get myself out from suicidal depression but when I see how many normies actually made it and while I have made the wront choice dozens of times it feels like if I am cursed and no matter what I do it always works against me.
Not bitching, ive thought about suicide so seriously I started researching the best ways to do it in a way that insurance still pays my family, how to set up my will etc that I just said "fuck it too much work". Every day I wake up and say "I will do better today" but sometimes it really feels like all my efforts to learn and improve end up leading me to the wrong place as if it was a giant cosmic joke. Still hanging in here by a hair though and you guys are the only ones who will ever know the truth because to my family coworkers and the world Im just a mediocre regular normie with a 9-5

Remember that whatever you did at the time was the decision that made the most sense to you with the information you had back then. It fucking sucks, but it couldn't have happened any other way. Have you lost money overall, or just not made as much as you could have? If you've lost it, then that's a very expensive learning opportunity, if you've made money but not quite enough then it's a very cheap learning experience

I have literally lost everything. I had a lot of it in cold storage and when I started learning about defi, yield farming, etc I thought I was being retarded so I took it out to get into defi. Im in that place in hell where a lot of /biz/ anons are where we arent normies buying doge coin but we arent geniuses writing solidity trading bots either. When I spend a lot of my free time researching and trying to understand new concepts I make terrible mistakes, meanwhile my normie coworkers who dont know what a cold wallet is are up hundreds of % because they bought DOGE in robinhood 3 weeks ago.
It is a special type of suffering. The things I have diamonded handed and not sold are down 70%, the ones I did the "smart" thing and took profits at 30% are up 150%. I am not a normie I suffer from intense social anxiety since a young age that I have learned to "mask" to allow me to hold a normie job to pay the rent, so nothing would make me happier than have enough gains to work from home - and Ive had those opportunities in my hands many times and no matter what my desicion has been -buy more, hold, take profits it has ALWAYS been the wrong one.
I was so close to ending it I started organizing all my personal matters and posessions - only the birth of nephews put a hold to my plans because I didnt want to taint the family joy with a death.
And like I said Im not one to give up. Every day I say "today will be better than yesterday" and try to learn,improve, keep going. But so far it just feels like im in a maze with no exit and no matter what I learn or try or do it always ends up being the wrong choice.
Sorry for the blogpost reddit spacing and bitching Im usually the guy that hypes people up irl but you guys are the only ones I have ever been able to vent to and show my real weaknesses to.

The difference is you'll be working on things that YOU choose to work on, not what someone else wants you to do. Whenever I encounter someone who says they would keep working, even if they become rich, I think, "What is wrong with you that servitude is a fundamental part of your being?" I would play vidya, work on my shitty music, browse the chans, pick up a musical instrument, learn to paint competently, maybe build some shit, exercise, cook all my own meals, and maybe knock up my gf. I could have time to be there for my kid. I could LIVE instead of slaving away for some faggot who wants to introduce more "inclusion and globalization" initiatives.

It takes courage to be able to admit problems you may be having. I know I sound like a cringe Instagram celeb, but knowing and admitting your problems to yourself is half the battle. The next step is to write them down on a piece of paper and start thinking through how you can get better one day at a time. Making it isn't necessarily the specific point where your body is ripped while living in Poland with your cute 11/10 gf, but the point where you are content with doing everything you can to make things better for you and the people you love.
Crypto harder to tackle because it's honestly informed gambling. No one here truly knows what they're doing here on /biz/. I'm sure you know this after seeing McDC threads yesterday and pink Wojaks today. Again, we're all trying to "make it." If it's financial stability you're looking for, I recommend following Ramsey's 7 baby steps. Total Boomer advice, but it's saved a lot of people. Just remember that crypto is ultimately a gamble, but even then, don't give up even if you've been here for 13 years. Eventually, you'll find what works for you and you'll make it as long as you stay persistent. GOD speed anon, and I wish you the best of luck.

you have good entries and bad exits it's fairly common. either grow some balls or step away because ur trying to trade with the big boys for high return when really ur just a long term investor cuck who could reasonably turn 10k into a million over a lifetime.

I have $25K in right now. If things play out like last time that should put me in the mid six figures if I exit at the right time.
I mean a 20x isn’t unreasonable to expect right? That’s all I need cause I’ll DCA all of it back into BTC and some other big caps starting a year after the top.
Then I’ll REALLY make it.

Just looked it up. It’s based on which bracket you’re in.

the bracket is based on how much you make that year though right? so like if you started with 25k and you get up to 300k and cash out they are gonna tax you based on 275k profit so you'd have to pay 35% of that which would be 96k youd have to pay in taxes
