😓 “I Lied to Myself — It Wasn’t an ‘Investment.’ It Was a Gamble.”
Read this before you throw money into another hype coin.
Let’s be honest…
I didn’t do research.
I didn’t read the whitepaper.
I didn’t even check the team.
I saw hype. I saw green candles.
And I wanted in. Fast.
So I told myself:
🗣 “This is the next SHIB.”
🗣 “It’s only $50 — why not?”
🗣 “If it moons, I’m set. If it dies, no big deal…”
But it was a big deal.
Because the losses stacked.
$50 here. $100 there.
Suddenly I was down $1,000…
Not from one bad trade — but from a thousand impulsive ones.
😞 I didn’t lose money because of bad luck.
I lost it because I didn’t respect my money.
💡 Lesson?
Crypto is powerful — but it’s not magic.
It rewards patience, research, and emotional control.
Not vibes and Telegram hype.
📌 Don’t gamble and call it “investing.”
📌 Don’t follow hype — follow your strategy.
📌 You don’t need 100x overnight. You need consistency.
