Dont eat, buy a Trezor and get half of them off the exchange and into cold.
I think he meant $35 and not 35 BTC. It would make no sense for someone with 35BTC (probably a very-soon-to-be bitcoin millionaire) whining about his poor judgement/luck.
Yea, dollars. And... I mean the whole 2008 financial crisis certainly didn't help, but to say it's bad luck is just not true. I had mined about 20 btc, and then did the first group buy of usb asicminer block eruptors, which had me at 15 ghash in 2013...was like 3 btc a week for a bit there.
But I'd just made some dumb choices and said/not said/done things that lead to near homelessness unemployment. Didn't have a stable job again until 2015, so all the btc I had and was mining got spent and was gone before the 2013 bubble.
Ugh. I'll shut up now.
