💸 My Friend Lost His Rent Money in Crypto – Please Don’t Make the Same Mistake 🚨
A close friend of mine got into crypto during the 2021 bull run. Like many, he watched coins skyrocket 🚀 and felt like everyone was getting rich... except him.
So he jumped in. But not with spare cash.
He used his emergency fund and even part of his rent money. 😬
At first, it worked. One of his altcoins ($DOGE ) pumped nearly 60% in a few days. He was thrilled, messaging me nonstop about how this was going to “change everything.”
But it didn’t.
The market turned fast. The coin crashed 📉 and panic took over. He sold in a loss, hoping to recover something. But it was too late. Rent was due. And the money was gone.
That moment shook him and honestly, it shook me too.
Since then, he’s learned and changed:
✅ Keeps a proper emergency fund
✅ Budgets monthly expenses
✅ Only invests what he can fully afford to lose
Crypto is powerful. But it’s also unforgiving if you’re not careful.
So here’s the truth:
👉 If you’re using money meant for survival bills, food, housing, you’re not investing.
👉 You’re gambling with your future.
Please don’t make the same mistake my friend did. Learn from it instead.
💡 Protect your basics. Grow with patience.
