Last night I brought something up with my wife, and it caused quite a stir at home. Here's what happened: while browsing X, I saw a post from TreehouseFi discussing how they do decentralized fixed income, and their tAssets and DOR mechanisms sounded quite reliable, with decent returns. I told my wife, "Let's buy some $TREE; it might have potential in the future." She exploded, saying I was "messing around" again, and that it would be safer to just put the money in the bank. I tried to explain the project's potential, talked for a long time about blockchain and staking yields, but she thought I was "gambling." In the end, she slammed the door and went to the bedroom, leaving me sulking in the living room.
After calming down, I realized I was also at fault for not communicating clearly with her. Honestly, I just thought $TREE was a bit interesting and wanted to test the waters. It’s normal for her to worry about risks, especially since saving money on both our salaries isn’t easy. I decided that in the future, I need to do my homework first, thoroughly research the project’s white paper and team background before discussing it with her. Last night, in a fit of anger, I even said, "Call me dear and I won't argue anymore," and she shot me a dirty look, almost making me sleep on the sofa. I really should slap myself for that, what a careless remark!
Today, I first apologized to her to cheer her up, then slowly explained the logic behind TreehouseFi, like how DOR sets interest rates and how tETH generates cross-chain yields. To my surprise, after hearing all that, she actually said, "Why don't you invest a small amount first and not put everything in?" Haha, it seems there's hope! From now on, I need to learn more, not just rely on enthusiasm; I need to back it up with data. The road to @Treehouse Official is still long, and I need to be steady and make sure my wife becomes a fan of $TREE too! #Treehouse
