The lifestyle of a bull market.
Recently, PayFi and U Card have become popular again, all related to daily cash withdrawal and spending, and it can be felt that everyone is making money in this wave of market trend.
Do you remember the last wave of cash withdrawal during the bull market in 2021? At that time, many friends around me realized wealth gains, and each chose their own way to change their lives and profitably exit. How are they doing now? Perhaps there are some insights.
Real Estate:
Xiao A bought an apartment in the Tokyo Port area, and now the floor price is 50% higher than at that time.
Xiao B bought a piece of land in Australia, forgot to build on it, and as a result, the agent this year asked if he wanted to sell it for double.
Xiao C, who paid a down payment in a leading domestic market, entered with a relatively high-interest loan, and now is down 20%.
Identity:
Xiao A, because he bought an apartment, also got a highly skilled visa, and is now in his third year of permanent residency in Japan.
Xiao B ended up not going to Australia, continued to work in Singapore, caught the last wave of PR window period, and successfully settled.
Xiao C is considering both the Hong Kong Quality Migrant Admission Scheme and the highly skilled visa, but has not taken any action yet.
Stocks:
Xiao A followed the trend and bought some Japanese and American stocks, currently enjoying an overall unrealized gain of 30%.
Xiao B does not play stocks, focusing on Crypto instead, solely to increase his BTC holdings.
Xiao C, with a significant rebound in A-shares this year, made some quick trades and profited before exiting.
Cars:
Xiao A did not buy a car; there are no long-term parking spaces within 1 km of his apartment, so he couldn't buy one.
Xiao B did not buy a car; the car ownership certificate in Singapore is now $70,000, and he chooses to continue dollar-cost averaging Bitcoin.
Xiao C bought a Model 3, the one worth over 300,000, which is now depreciated to about 180,000.

Xiao A has children, enrolled in a private school in Tokyo, learning bilingual education.
Xiao B has children, enrolled in a public school in Singapore, learning multiple languages.

Xiao B has been selling fewer altcoins, but accumulating more Bitcoin.
Xiao C is no longer adding funds because he needs to pay off loans; he recently invested in a few AI coins.
