About Me |
- Boglehead turned Bitcoiner - I choose to participate in a financial system in which there is a known money supply with predictable issuance. - I want an irrevocable right to my money. I don't want to participate in a financial system where minorities are coerced by a majority (or vice versa). - This is why I use Bitcoin instead of fiat USD or any other crypto. |
Best Financial Decision |
Through 2020: - Tithing to local church, avoiding debt, relatively frugal living - Reading bogleheads.org and investing - Buying more stocks during downturns - Finding new jobs that pay more
2021 Onward: - Trading my diversified portfolio of low-cost index funds for bitcoin. |
Worst Financial Decision |
Through 2020: - Not investing more earlier - Investing in bonds while FED was printing $$ and keeping rates artificially low - Not taking bitcoin seriously before 2021
2021 Onward: - Putting short term money in bitcion and not selling when it was up - Not staying humble (i.e. believing other's price predictions) |
Current Investing Strategy |
- Buy bitcoin (NEVER other "crypto") and hold - Where I can't get bitcoin, buy MSTR to thank Michael Saylor for https://hope.com - Ignore the naysayers, the FUD, and the volatility |
