Saw my nick came up. In reply, I am far from fuck you-status. But I do try to enjoy life while I can. It's a trade-off - yes I could be life-changing-fuck-you rich at one point if I just save all my BTC. If I had saved all my BTC (max 98.5) and ETH (1200) and Dash (1100) I had at one point, I would already be a multimillionaire right now. But on the other hand, I live now and I want to enjoy life as much as possible right now. Right now I only have a couple of BTC left, no ETH, no Dash.

That's too bad about both your ongoing inability/unwillingness to save some bitcoins, and your seeming inabilities to control your desires for immediate gratification.. but hey, each of us make our own decisions regarding how to balance current versus future gratifications based on what balances that we maintain (and our abilities to invest).
Everyone needs to make those decisions for themselves, it depends on what you want but also on your circumstances.
Not arguing with you about that.
In my case, I have been very lucky in my life. I live in an appartment that I thouroughly love, I will never move out of here even if it is only 65 m2. I don't want more. I have a nice job, all I want is to work a little less, but I do not want to not work at all. Now that I also have the car I've always wanted, I really do have all the material stuff I could ever whish. I also have enough reserves to handle bad times if they should happen.
One more thing I bought recently was 140 hours of extra free time from my "thirteenth month" of salary. I'm sure that sounds weird to Americans but here in The Netherlands in my line of work that is possible.
Next year I will change my contract from 38 hours to 32 hours, work 4 days and have a 3 day weekend. I will make a little less, but I've worked on getting my running costs as low as possible - I pay little mortgage, I pay close to zero for my energy needs, and now with the Tesla the running costs for my vehicle have come done considerably.
So, in my circumstances, I already feel rich! So thank you Bitcoin!!!!

No problem with any of that, either. Peeps make trade offs in terms of present versus future, and so hard to really suggest that you are making the wrong choices for yourself in terms of either your finances or your psychology.. that's for you to judge.
Edit: JJG FYI Ducati is with one t. And yes it was destroyed but payed for in full by the person who drove through a red light to hit me. I now have a 959 instead of the 899 I had then.
Yes, I recall some of those details, including your posting about the new one that you got.
Of course, as I have already posted a couple of times, I am not quibbling with your desires to determine your own financial, psychological and even utilitarian needs, but I am quibbling with your posting in this public thread as if there is some kind of justification for your various seemingly luxurious consumption of various depreciating assets, and frequently at times that are not even close to being the top of a cycle or to even demonstrate that you are engaging in any kind of practice that would be recommended for anyone except ur lil selfie and perhaps a few other weak-handed folks who tend to value their wealth in depreciating consumption items and with little or no ability to either defer gratification or to sufficiently understand the power of king daddy, including it's likely value appreciating power, as compared with your choices in consumption items that likely could easily be deferred and allow you to consume magnitudes more in the event that you had some abilities to defer some of your consumption inclinations.
but whatever, you do you... If you want to have fun staying poor, that's your choice... and sure, some of this assessment of wealth (and appreciation of bitcoin) is relatively thinking and even with a couple of BTC you are way better off than so many nocoiners who have hardly any clue about bitcoin, or are hesitant to take any kind of BTC stance or to begin some kind of BTC accumulation and maintenance plan.. so surely you remain light years ahead of many of those nocoiners to the extent that they might be a reasonable comparison of where you are at and where you might be going.
Oh noes! We crashed down to 51.5k. Better call Proudhon....
