I see posts on here all the time from people saying "yeah just bought 10k x and 20k y". theres posts on here and twitter all day from people talking about stacks, assets like homes, other cool shit theyre buying.
Even if 99% are a larp, theres still going to be honest people out there. Even if somebody has a mill it doesnt change that objectively 5k is a huge amount of money, yet some just toss it about like its nothing.
Where the fuck do people get all this money from?
>Where the fuck do people get all this money from?
From a job user
Even if you have an average salary like 40k a year, you can still save up one thousand or more every month.
Throw it at a shitcoin, it x5 and wallah!
When you consider Zig Forums's userbase, it's likely coming from wagecuking or from their parents who are already well off. Maybe some from criminal activity.
Shut up nigger.
I guess but still, if youre earning 40k a year are you really in a position to be playing shitcoin roulette with a 1,000 bucks.
Take some old vidya, collectibles or books to a trader and buy a hundred linkies user. You might as well go for it
As the other user mentioned, you get money by working a job. If you've been in crypto for a few years, chances are you were able to multiply your money so now you have enough to play around and "throw" 5k when a good opportunity shows its face. Time in the market is a big deal, people who have heavy bags didn't get in a month ago (for the most part)
only people who actually have the stacks they say they have are OG channers who've compounded 100+ 10x gains. it's like .001% though. the rest are larps fantasizing about unironically owning that much
I had savings from my job. And also took out a loan on my car. Didn't have too. But my gains already paid off the loan.
Not necessarily true though, when coins like AMPL do 40x in a few weeks it's not impossible that a bunch of people actually have tens of thousands of dollars. Such opportunities are pretty rare though
I make ~100k/year wageslaving in Tokyo.
The dream is to get rich enough that I can quit and open my own little bar. Fuck being an officecuck
>I guess but still, if youre earning 40k a year are you really in a position to be playing shitcoin roulette with a 1,000 bucks
Unless you have a family to support and mortage to pay... yeah absolutely. What else are you gonna spend your money on, a brand new car that depreciates every day? Drugs and alcohol? Videogames?
Time in market is big, I used to think 5k is big money but my algo is doing 10k trades every few hours and I don’t even check it anymore.
Those cheeks would engulf a face.
In 2020 I'd be more inclined to say its larping than real oldfag anons but I guess between you guys youve answered my question.
>get job
>spend it wisely
>moon mission
>be carefree with the excess
I guess I need to go get a job.
some of us old fags got in btc or eth early
eth at 1 dollar myself, then traded shitcoins through 2017 turning those eth into a lot more eth.
so now 10k put into a project isnt 10k of actual USD put in. its 10k of eth (or btc) that has an actual cost of a couple bucks
then there are neets using neet bux
1. I see youre new here
2. These are investments not theowing money around, you mentioned real estate and other assets, the people with houses are often mortgaging the house whichbis cheaper than renting an apartment but you need a job or a cosigner with a good job to get the mortgage
3. I saved up from an ultra low wage job for over a year, you have to cut your soending, live at home, and work; or find a way to make money, and not chump change but real money.
4. Its called get a job and grow up
5. Most men have the change from retard to bread winner at age 23 or 24 26-27 is real late and 32 is like dude youre hopeless
6. But most of us are living with family and working and saving the money and not doing anything fun; and staying at home to cut costs because if you want to win life you have to play the slow game
7. Do not covet, you are coveting. Instead of thinking “man how did theybget all that money, if i had some of that money i could do so much” think “hey I’m a human too i can get a job and live cheap and make that money as well”
8. If youre under 23 dont worry aboutnit yet just fucking dont soend everything and put your money in chainlink or tezos or bitcoin cash or kyber or auger and wait
I'd put my whole arm up her ass and then lick it as I take it out.
>I make ~100k/year wageslaving in Tokyo.
If you're making 100k a year you're not wageslaving you out of touch piece of shit. I don't usually get mad at people who earn more than me but you don't have a fucking clue. The NERVE of you! I earn 16k a year. Sixteen fucking K. I work 40hrs a week for that shit. I'M wageslaving, you live in fucking paradise. Cunt. Literally seething.
for the longest time I was stuck at 3-4k
now I am at 30k
so things are turning around for the better I hope
if your salary is shit, you definitely have to take higher risks if you want to make it. Playing it safe would take too long to get you anywhere if you only have a couple hundred to invest.
$500 used to be a lot of money for me to throw at crypto a year ago, but after a few risky plays that worked out well I'm way better off. nowadays I just throw that amount at random shitcoins I see shilled in here.
money is way easier to make than most people think, once you know what you're doing
I'm 19 and life with my brother, work part time filling vending machines, I give him a couple of hundred a month, if I got a full time job I could save money.
I'll start applying for stuff online tonight, not sure I can do anything useful for a company yet but I'll see whats out there.
>$55k salary
>26, live with loving parents. no rent or bills to pay
>can save 80-90% monthly income in crypto
>also took out a $10k loan for PNK back in Feb
>portfolio now worth $55k
I suspect most of the people here tossing money around got it from being an early investor in LINK or ETH
This. Not having kids and debt helps.
By not being mentally ill.
You're too late for mining these coins so you're gonna have to:
Get a job
Dollar cost average, in other words spend a portion of your check every 1-2 weeks on investments that you're confident in
Keep doing this for a couple years
Don't panic sell over volatility
based idea. Don't give up, lil biatch
Any tips for someone writing an algo trader atm? Using python and going to start with Binance coins with high volatility. For now just going to target good setups that are clearly oversold until I can narrow down a more effective strategy. I considered uniswap and I'm sure there's a lot of money to be made there but I'd want to set up charting first with tradingview and that's basically another project entirely.
>I make ~100k/year wageslaving in Tokyo.
If the nips around here are anything to go by it sounds awful but well done if its what you want.
live like a neet but still get a job
you'll be saving money but you need high returns to /make it/
all you need is some good trades
When i was 19, 5k was ALOT of money. I know the feels
24 now and 5k feels like what $250-$500 felt then
i got 250k€ from my parents and i saved about 100k€ working made 40k€ with crypto
Creating a new Covid...bat soup, ass juice, just askin fer trouble
quit that job and collect cans. WTF pays 16gs a year hahahaha
Wage slaving has nothing to do with the salary user. It’s a mindset and a lifestyle. The fact that I have to wake up every day and waste my entire life cucking myself to make someone else rich is what makes me a wage slave. I can’t quit my job tomorrow, I am literally a slave to my wage. Plus I am willing to bet that my cost of living is significantly higher than what area you’re in so at the end of the day it’s not as large of a gap as you perceive.
Thanks senpai. We’re all going to make it.
They’re leaping. Average salary for a 30 year old male in Tokyo is 36k/year. Salaries are shit here. Most “experienced” line level jobs pay you ~40-60k/year. 100k+ for line management level.
26-27 is real late? The fuck do you smoke? You sound like your 22 and just landed your first job out of community college and make 35k salary
I'm a Europoor. I live in England. This country is fucked. There are NO jobs unless you want to earn a shit wage like I do.
Yeah whatever. I apologise for blowing up. It's all relative I guess. It's just I see someone unhappy with making 6.25x what I do and it makes me want to rope. I fucking hate life.
You’re an idiot
>just bought 100k
90% live paycheck to paycheck. it's all larp
You could literally go to trade school at night and make 40-50k after 1 year of training. Some of those kids can barely read. Stop seething, you fucking cuck.
>5k is a huge amount of money, yet some just toss it about like its nothing.
If you think $5k is a huge amount of money, it always will be.
Every day, check Coingecko's Recently Added page. Look for a coin with a real product that's at least in beta (NOT some wishlist roadmap), sub-$1m market cap, and at least a few thousand in volume. Go to Uniswap, toss some ETH in it, maybe if it's really exciting come back and tell Zig Forums, then sell once it does a 3x.
Right now there's a 3-5x pretty much every week, sometimes 2 or 3
>I guess but still, if youre earning 40k a year are you really in a position to be playing shitcoin roulette with a 1,000 bucks.
Stop thinking like a poor person. Gambling $1k with shitcoins is risky, but making $40k a year for the rest of your one and only life is much much riskier.
What separates rich people from poor people is that the rich take risks. The poor just find some job and go to it until they die, having seen, done, and achieved nothing.
what do you do for a living ?
Comparing yourself with others is a sure way to feel miserable. There's no harm in accepting that others have it better than you do, especially if it can push you forward to improve your situation, but everyone is walking on their own path under their own specific circumstances, and as such everyone's perspective is different. Sorry if I'm saying something obvious but it took me a while to accept this (and desu I still compare myself regularly with others but I try to not let it take over, ultimately I'm the one in control of my emotions and the way I react)
I'm going to say this as nicely as possible: You need to change your entire way of thinking. Someone has inflicted a belief structure on you that will keep you poor and unhappy forever until you change it.
