I was thinking of splitting it 20k/20k on LINK and REQ...I got lucky with ICX and it's up to $27k (+ a few g's elsewhere in portfolio)...

Single guy, not many expenses, $350k/year job..low net worth though

come on man, just go for it... you have plenty of money i went all in on considerably less money/stability. think about how suicidal you will be if you dont try to make a couple million. there will always be wagecuck job for a guy like you. just give it a shot.

maybe??? its obviously enormously risky, but we may look back on this period as a once in a lifetime wealth creation opportunity.

We have roughly the same income/net worth situation and I've toyed with liquidating my 401k and equities to go whole hog into cryptos. My risk tolerance is high bordering on insane and even I pussy'ed out. Kind of regret it now.

I would note that equities are currently trading at incredibly rich multiples so your vanguard fund may not yield very much over 2018

it's crazy how lately if your portfolio only goes up 10% in a week it's a disappointing week

LMAO yeah I know. if a stock goes down just 5% in a day that can sound absolutely devastating in the press. Fucking cryptos can fluctuate 100% in a couple hours ljl. this is a glorified casino

Think we are all at the same craps table. Shooter has been at it for hour and a half and everyone's up. Question is when to take it off the table since we know the seven is coming, just not sure of it's the next roll or in another hour.

Same situation...About the same amount in Vanguard. I may liquidate first week of January to push the tax bill to 2019. Haven't 100% decided. May take 10K at a time. Is it really a risk though. If you lose all of it for some off chance reason, you're still wagecucking until 75 like you would've done anyway.

This...it's irrational not to make crazy moves. I remember thinking Peterman was an absolute mad man for stopping his 401k contributions while loading up on ETH -- he was a genius

lol 401ks are a scam bro, do you think any millionaire sub 40 thinks "oh man, wish i wouldve gotten that 18k tax free!" at PV bitcoin that is roughly 1.25 BTC at FV bitcoin....way less than 1 BTC. just go for it. you know things will work out but youre still afraid, why?

You make 350K, you've watched countless altcoins 10x or more over the last year, and you still have to ask?

IDC as I just recently put it in this fall and only have $2k growth..my marginal rate is absurd so whatever..stocks are going to slow down 2018
