Your story makes me think you got into trading altcoins, which is very risky.
I don't know what you got out of Rich Dad and Poor Dad, but basically what that book says is that rich people invest for cash flow, giving a lot of importance to real estate investment. The author has great confidence in bitcoin, but I would never lend it out for cash flow, as it means giving up your private keys for a small extra percentage of return. Too much risk for too little return.
Personally, I don't play with altcoins. You seem to be keen to keep playing with them, good luck.
