Before I got into the digital asset space, my uncle was going on and on about having this shitcoin and all that. Trading was his thing and he was in more valleys than peaks, and HODLing didn't make any sense to him. Well in Bitcoin, HODLing is how to do it.

That can be part of the problem and the dilemma of actually having money because there are so many folks that are not very responsible with their own money, and they have no reserves, and when we build up a bitcoin investment - not only do we end up having money in bitcoin, but then we need to maintain an emergency fund and reserves so that we will not have to dip into our BTC investment.. so it could be a bad thing to deplete your emergency fund based on something that might not exactly even be your own emergency, and then end up experiencing your own emergency prior to your being able to replenish your emergency fund... .. so yeah a lot of times it can feel as if th e emergency fund, reserves and float are just sitting around and not really doing anything.. but then all of a sudden when you need them, then they can surely end up coming in handy.
I am so greatfull and happy we have someone like you @jayjuanGee in this BTT forum. All thanks to you for changing our mindset and also creating a new version of us, to see the brighter ways of doing things. Earlier before now I always find it difficult to save. I always have that instinct that tells me to use any money to do something before I will spend it. Though it might not be extravagant spending but just to use it and do an important thing that will deprive me of having and emergency fund, or having it on Bitcoin but now I have learnt to control my spending habits I can save in the bank and keep in bitcoin without having a second thought running through my mind to spend.
