It's not easy for me to write about this, but I've decided to dedicate a separate post to it.

On the internet, we constantly see success stories: someone earns money from cryptocurrency, investments, buys real estate, shares impressive incomes. It seems that everyone around is productive and financially successful, except for you.

I have always sought to earn more than I can at the moment and looked for easy paths. However, each time I ended up with the same result – failure.

Mistake #1: Hype Investments

When the Trump token $TRUMP #TRUMP was released, many were able to profit from it, but even more people lost money. I found myself among the losers. I jumped in at the last moment when it was already too late, and ended up with a loss.

Mistake #2: Gambling and Betting

The realization of losses kept me restless – just like many who are currently in the red from investments in the stock market or cryptocurrency. In an attempt to recover, I decided to try sports betting.

At first, I lost about $1,000, but then I risked everything I had and managed to win $10,000. The outcome, I think, is obvious. I became addicted, lost control, took borrowed money, lost it, and ended up in debt – now I'm down about $9,000.

Why am I writing this post?

First of all, for myself – as a reminder that high-risk investments are not for me. Cryptocurrency triggers my gambling addiction in futures, and gambling leads to money loss.

Secondly, for everyone reading this channel. I will continue to publish thoughts on cryptocurrency, markets, and my life, but I will no longer invest my money and time into it.

My goal is to completely pay off my debts by the end of 2025 and create a small financial cushion. I hope my story serves as a lesson not only for me but also for those who are looking for 'easy money'.
