We need to invest bitcoins but invest in such a way that we don't have to sell our holdings if we face danger later. That's why we have to divide it into three parts. Having an emergency fund is the most important, so that we don't have to sell our investments in times of danger. And nothing should be done aggressively, the more aggressive the more likely to go wrong. But we must plan and take all steps to survive our investment for long time.
Let us always make the difference between being aggressive and being overly aggressive in terms of our investment journey, there is nothing wrong being aggressive towards your investment without over doing it such that it will affect your personal living expenses, being aggressive has a lot to do with, how consistence you are comfortably implementing both routine and non routine strategies in oder to maximize the opportunity of stashing up more Bitcoin in to your bag without having a negative effect on our personal life expenses, it is when you over do it without considering much of your other personal needs that it will becomes problematic towards your investment. However, in as much as one being aggressive in his or her investment there must be a balance up in terms satisfying personal needs which will determine your discretional or disposable income and the extend or level of aggressiveness in order to have a successful investment, it all boils down to proper planning and making a adjustments where and when necessary.
I agree with everything you said Tmoonz, and sometimes we might not even realize that we had crossed into a territory of either being overly aggressive or perhaps overly whimpy until somewhere later down the road.. even though I would speculate that being overly aggressive is potentially more problematic than having had figured out that you had been overly whimpy, because many folks will likely erroneously have the feeling that they had been too whimpy in their investment in the event that the BTC price ends up going way up, they end up saying to themselves: "I should have invested more," yet the fact of the matter is that if you are actually attempting to be as aggressive as you can be, then you are already making those kinds of proper balances in terms of your level of aggressiveness.
A similar thing is true on the opposite side, if you end up experiencing some kind of an emergency and you are ill-prepared for it, even though you thought that you were more than sufficiently prepared, you might have to scramble to figure out ways to not sell much if any of your bitcoin in those kinds of circumstances, so there could end up developing circumstances in which you are able to save yourself with a kind of "close call" such as going to a family member with an emergency loan or something like that, but there also might be circumstances where you realize that the circumstance could have had been worse, and maybe you end up selling and/or losing 10% or more of your BTC holdings, but you do not sell/lose all of it, and so in those partial damage situations, you may well learn how to protect yourself in better ways in the future..,. so you live to fight another day, even though a bit more damaged than you had anticipated to have had been possible.
Something else I figured is someone might not really realise that he has been overly aggressive for a long period of time and might have been neglecting preparing himself or his emergency funds and had rather focused only on investing in bitcoin and not everyone could tell that they were faulty in this kind of situation especially if they had felt that their were doing fine the way they had been carrying out their bitcoin investment.
My point here is that some folks might either have to learn the hard way about how to balance been aggressive since its hard to tell if you actually are aggressive or not, I wanted some kind of explanation or defination there is one to what a balanced aggressive bitcoin invested should be or should we just say as long as we are not neglecting any other systems like our emergency funds, reserves, floats etc and we are comfortable with what we are investing then we are doing fine, why I still emphasize is cause not everyone might realise that they are wrong in their approach and might even feel comfortable with that approach initially until a bad situation occurs that reveals otherwise.
