I used to have millions of dollars worth of crypto, and I fell into a revenge trading spiral that had me lose all of itBut nobody ever talks about what its like to have that kind of money.Ive been really angry at myself the past year because of this, thinking of how much better off I'd be right now if I still had those millions, but if I really think seriously and be honest with myself, my life was not really any different back then...All the stresses and worries and concerns in life that I had stopped being about money, and they suddenly became about health, I started autistically thinking every little thing was killing me, I became a hypochondriac with that money.Now that I'm back to being a day to day peasant living poverty having to autistically count & track every dollar I spend while living extremely frugally just to afford basic living expenses, I stopped worrying about my health, because now my mind is focused on if I can pay the bills to simply not be homeless and afford food and utility bills.It seems like the benefit of being poor is that you have to be so focused on your ability to survive financially, so it stops you from stressing about other shit in life, where as if you have zero financial issues (like I once had when I was a multi-millionaire) that it opens you up to suddenly being worried about a billion things that aren't finances related... which can make you go crazy.I would go as far as to say keeping people constantly financially pressured and strained is way better for their mental health overall than having everyone be financially free, the financial freedom would likely destroy so many more lives than it would help and create way more mental illness

>>61520939>ok
What you say is not wrong but in your case it was a little different because you got lucky in becoming a multi millionaire. People that work towards that never actually feel financially free, they just raise the bar of financial freedom.
>>61520942I always thought the more money = more problems would be money-related problems, but for me it was 10,000 non-money related problems that I didn't even think about when poor because I was too focused on money when I was poor, and now that Im poor again, all I focus on again is money, and my mind magically forgot about the other 10,000 non-money related problems.
>>61520939All that worrying about your health while rich was a result of avarice, not wanting to lose the cash by losing your life and trying to ensure you could spend the maximum amount of time "enjoying" the wealth without life getting cut short due to illness.Sorry u lost all that money hope you got your head in a better place now.16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’21 “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life[b]? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?
I "only" lost 100k and it already haunts me, if I had lost millions I would have probably become a drug addict to cope or some kind of hikikomori.Oh wait, I'm already basically the latter.
>>61520954>All that worrying about your health while rich was a result of avarice, not wanting to lose the cash by losing your life and trying to ensure you could spend the maximum amount of time "enjoying" the wealth without life getting cut short due to illness.Pretty much yepi became like Bryan Johnsonguy became a billionaire and became a full on health / longevity nut
>>61520966ngl it felt like my cortisol was way higher when i had total financial freedom
>>61520966>>61520969Who the fuck is Bryan Johnson and why has he popped up on my feeds the last few months?
>>61520975He built venmo cashapp or whatever its called, sold it for billy, then became a health nut
>>61520954I became alot more health focused since reaching 1.5-2mil mark few years ago. Though probs cause I have luxary to afford proper food, time to rest & decent dental care (im in UK so u need private, free care is for plebs)
>>61520951>would be money-related problemsThat happens if you are foolish enough to let other people know you're rich.
>>61521063Had nothing to do with other people.My mind just started coming up with a billion non-money related fears and stressors when i had no longer the financial stressor hanging over my head
>>61521067That's why I specifically replied to a comment about money-related problems, not your non-money-related fears and stressors, illiterate-kun.
>>61520939Not reading this.But I'm happy for you and/or sorry it happened.

>>61520939I agree opHaving money is too stressful which is why I am happy to leave it to my Jewish betters to hold it all and deal with that terrible stress while I am able to relax in my squalor
>>61520939The thing about autism is that they struggle to understand that other people have different feelings and points of view than their own.No anon, just because you became a hypochondriac after obtaining wealth does not mean everybody does.
>>61520939Why weren't you worried about health problems before the money and why aren't you now? Are you stupid? Health always was and still is important. And why panic and stress about it when you had money? And why gamble away everything? You honestly just sound like a dumb guy that accidentally got rich for a little while. Fact is, figuring out health does take time, focus, experimentation, research, critical thinking, etc. It's probably harder than getting rich. Having enough money is just a baseline responsibility. Money won't fix your health. Beyond buying higher quality, organic food, the benefit of being rich is time and freedom to figure stuff out.Certainly, most people don't need freedom.
>>61520939I kind of agree but not entirely. Yea you start stressing about health but you didn't have kids either right? Because a lot of people only stress about their own lifespan due to never raising the next generation.
>>61521301Because for some reason when i have to worry about how the next bill gets paid I dont have any space in my mind for worrying about health so i stop stressing about health and other non-money related issues and just focus on the money, which is simpleNeed to pay something > find some money > pay it > relax When I had millions of dollars suddenly that stopped being a thing and my mind would do is find random things to stress about, which don't have any simple fix/conclusion
>>61520939
>>61520939>I became a hypochondriac with that moneyI've always been a hypochondriac since I was a kid, I didn't need money to do that to me.
