what can you even do with 25k?
>>59668742it doesn't even buy you a house
>>59668742do people here actually own dakis?
>>59668750buy 25k worth of otm 0dte calls
>>59668757i have 2, i've been keeping them for 5+ years or so. it's extremely based.
>>59668757yeah one, lifes quite sad when you got nobody/nothing to hughas been a good financial decision so far
>>59668750Have enough to survive for a year, and buy a used car which I need badly.
>>59668755Houses are a huge expense and can be unhealthy if you're stuck in a rotting one, anyway I don't expect to live longer than 5 more years so houses are out.
>>59668742i have 80k and im still not free from wagecuckery
>>59668742it can be.maybe it gets you debt free?
>>59668834More than debt free, would change my life.
>>59668742>buy gaming computernow its only 20k>travel the worldnow its only 10k>eat ubereats for a yearnow its 0k
>>59668874those are all awesome things that demonstrably change someone's life
>>59668874Don't want or need a gaming computer I barely play games, I hate traveling and find its a waste, and I even sicker than most people always make or get my own food.
>>5966887410k for a gaming computer? What the fuck? I could give you top of the line for half that. Are you buying an alienware or something?
>>59668742I lost double that on MELANIA and TRUMP. I'm salty as fuck lmao
>>596689035k. op said 25k. 25-5=20it used to be a sarcastic meme but a fully specced out pc these days is 5k, assuming you dont cheap out on anything
>>59668901>and I even sicker than most people always make or get my own food.what
>>59668916paper losses, i presume?
>>59668942Disregard then, am retarded and can't read.
>>59668960Long story short... I got in very early on TRUMP, fucked myself over when I swapped to MELANIA, doubled down by buying shitloads of TRUMP and MELANIA, and then scared myself into selling the bottom when everything dumped. It's so embarrassing, I was up almost $30k at one point.
>>59668948Doesn't matter, point is that's all excess shit I wouldn't spend money on even if I had insane amounts.
>>59668978dont swing dude, eventually all swingies swing from ropes. just buy and hold
>>59668995Nah, I've made fat profits in the past from swing trading. It's FOMO that fucked me over this time. This is what happens when I dabble in shitcoins for the first time since 2019>just buy and holdI literally preach this. It's how I became a millionaire off BTC and ETH.
>>59668819If you're in the US, 25k is barely enough to NEET with roommates or very cheap rent for a year. Or buy a used car, but definitely not both.
>>59668982if u mean food sensitivities yeah im the same, i was just giving some example expenses
>>59669025unfortunately I do, 25k is life changing but not life ending in terms of having everything set, but I live extremely frugal, eat once every 2-3 days.
>>59669052really bad case of lupus nephritis that's destroyed my spleen and left kidney, and something called antiphosphorlipid syndrome which cuts circulation off from my stomach below causing insane problems.
>>59669064>>59669050Meant to respond to you, in the middle of a bad flare up.
>>59669064damn bro that sounds really rough. maybe reconsider getting a gaming pc so you could at least get some enjoyment out of life.personally i found the advice of health people like ray peat, aajonus vonderplanitz, and grant genereux to be helpful
>>59669097Eh my computer runs stuff alright it's old but I'm so sick most the time now even if I get on a game its for an hour max before other shit happens.
$25k is basically life "saving" emergency fund it's like if your car broke down, you got arrested, you lost your job, got evicted, and someone stole your identity all in the same day...$25k is enough to recover from a worst case scenario and still have enough left over to get back on your feet
i only have 110k severance to my name. paying 5k a month on rent for my nice loft. haven't applied to any jobs yet and ive never owned any crypto.
>>59668995>just buy and holdPatience is underrated in crypto. I've seen better results by holding BTC, Near, and Pepe instead of gambling on pumps that's not coming.
>>59668750Invest it in Kasu for passive income I guess
this thread made me feel a fuck ton better about my portfolio sitting at 22-23k depending on how the market is feeling. I fomo'd in and gathered this money over 1 month by pulling 2 loans to pay for the dino coins in my portfolio. One loan is from my 401k that I just pay back over 5 years at 5% interest, and another loan is from my bank that I pay back over 5 years at 10% interest that dont cost me more than $300 a month.
>>59668916Haha, this is why I lean toward well established players like SOL, XRP, Tribally, or even Render, projects that have already proven they’ve got what it takes to thrive.
>>59668742you can significantly change your life for less than $50 by tattooing a giant penis on your face, so there really isn't that much of a lowest bar here.
>>59668819>Have enough to survive for a year, and buy a used car which I need badly.in one month:rent - 2400bills and subscriptions - 1350groceries - 500total is 42504250x12 months is 51kTell me which state lets me NEET for a mere 25k in a year and I'll move IMMEDIATELY.
>>59671743Are those your actual bills?Ngmi.
>>59671743>>59671627>>59669985Grim, ngmi
>>59668978I did the same, I've made 80k with trump coin (could have made way more, took profits around $20), then went all in on melania and did not take profits, ended up losing 40k. Fuuuckkkk
>>59671743Move to Canada
>>5967158414% APY on 25K isn't that much IMO
>>59671863After all the side hustling, saving, and bargain-hunting I do to make/save money throughout the year. I waited 2 months to find a good deal on my airplane tickets to Asia next month. And then I go and blow $50k gambling on fucking Solana shitcoins. I feel depressed lol
>>59671743My bills water gas energy, car liability insurance, and food are my big expenses, and shitty mint mobile every three months, you can cut most of those expenses.Move back in with your parents that rent is insane.
>>59672357Sorry anon. A lot of people lost a lot of money since Friday, if you can find any solace in that. It sucks :(
if i was given 25k to build wealth with i'd probably throw it all at the first three to four shitcoins i spot on dextools and call it a day. i either get decimated in a matter of minutes or i quadruple those 25k no in between.
