just utterly sick to my stomach for losing 13+ BTC.

I have now lost my entire life savings.

Please don’t completely bankrupt me.

As an additional warning to those that are new to the space...

If the amount of value that you are holding in crypto is such that you would be devastated if you lost it all, then you are holding too much value in crypto.

These are experimental, volatile, and risky protocols.  Do not risk your mental and emotional well-being.

I really wanted to get myself reasonable enough to keep this in my head but sometimes there's just something in me that says invest in crypto as big as possible because the money is there. Perhaps this is sheer greed or the desire to just make some progress in life. Bitcoin even went as high as $19,000 and still I did not even withdrew a small fraction. I hope it will get back soon so that I will be making withdrawals. Just the same with the OP, I am saving a certain amount in crypto that would really bankrupt me totally if stolen.
