For the sake of my mental health I’ve had to call it quits (for now).
Been hodling for 3 years and I’m up from where I started, not much but a little. But I bought a house this year which I’ve been saving for since 2015 and I just can’t risk losing it. I’m taking all my crypto and other investments and putting it into savings accounts which offer 5% interest. I always keep an emergency fund but I’m going to build it up as much as I possibly can for the next 2 years when it’s time to remortgage. If interest rates have calmed down I’ll think about reinvesting , if not I’m going to overpay the mortgage to try and keep the monthly payments from getting too ridiculous.
I feel a bit sad because I really feel like crypto was going to give me a big boost towards FIRE and I think it’s going to be one of my biggest regrets. But on the other hand if I did get into trouble with mortgage payments knowing I could have prevented it I don’t think I could forgive myself and I don’t know how I would be able to look at my family.
PS, you’re welcome for whatever pump follows.
