I have a friend. He happened to make a fortune by speculating in cryptocurrencies. He bought a townhouse in Shenzhen two years ago, and paid the full amount without a mortgage. He was born in the 1990s.

This neighbor was originally a programmer. He earned a lot of BTC by playing games in his early years. Later, he sold them one after another and sold them all in 2020. According to his friend, he made more than 5000w by selling coins. The real number is probably unknown to anyone except his family. After making money, he sent his younger brother who was in college to the UK for gilding.

I had a meal with him some time ago. He was very low-key. He had been driving a Crown car for 6 years and never changed it. He didn't have any luxury goods on him.

When I asked about some ideas about playing coins and speculating in stocks, his words enlightened me: Don't envy those who became rich overnight in the coin circle. They are all chosen ones. It is destined that playing coins to make money is half technology and half luck. What you have to do is to have a correct mentality. He was very glad that he sold the coins in advance, otherwise the risk of large-scale coin issuance in recent years would be very high.

At present, his investment portfolio is: 50% bank fixed-term financial management + 30% stocks + 20% active cash. A state of complete financial freedom.

I tell you this example to express that: speculation or investment determines the risk level of your funds.

It doesn’t matter if you play with less than 20% of your assets, even if you lose money. When you encounter a big market, you will act decisively and stop profit and loss immediately. Maybe one day the goddess of luck will come to you.
