My point is that it could become quite tempting to spend some of your BTC investment too early,.. and yeah, sure it might not seem like any kind of problem when you are in your fairly earliest of stages of BTC accumulation, yet if you make it through one or two BTC cycles, you might not be close enough to fuck you status, yet you still might get lured into cashing out decently large portions of your BTC or perhaps diverting your BTC accumulation efforts (when you really should still be accumulating BTC) way earlier than you should be, and perhaps even preventing yourself towards ever reaching fuck you status which might have had been your goal and which might have had been reasonably within your reach if you had not gotten distracted away from your BTC accumulation efforts...and even ending up spending decent chunks of your BTC.
One thing about investment and this is not only about bitcoin Alone but even less Volatile assets or investment is psychology, many people do not find it hard to start investing sometimes but they find it hard to grow that investment, one of the biggest problems is that we think as profits starts settling in we as individuals need to match the investment with our lifestyle and some people take off profits that we meant to be the main foundation of the investment to upgrade their lifestyle and it is on this believe that so many businesses have collapsed today.
An overwhelming number of normies do not seem to know how to figure out how to employ a sustainable withdrawal rate, and so they end up calculating the whole value, and then figuring out how long they want it to last, and so if they have $600k, then they might say that they can withdraw $60k per year if they want it to last for 10 years, and in bitcoin, that might actually work to have a withdrawal rate that is 10% per year, yet for other investments, they are likely not going to be able to retain their value.. so usually they will make the mistake of withdrawing their principle too soon and NOT making sure that their investment is growing at least as much as what is being withdrawn... and if the investment is not growing at least as much as the withdawal rate they will end up depleting their principle too soon..
Not that I am against taking off profits from any investment, in fact I usually tell some bitcoin investors that they should have partial profit target to take out some profits. This profits can use to build another investment to serve as diversification such that profits from this new investment can still be use to gain back the bitcoin which was liquidated to build that business. One can also take profit from one’s portfolio to solve some problems in the family or home at least it is far better than going for Loans but all this should be done with a mapped out plan for it so as not to spend off capital think one is spending i
if a person reaches a status of having extra bitcoin, then surely he is in a better place to start to withdraw bitcoin on a regular basis and perhaps take years and years to use up the amount that is excess, and if they employ a withdrawal rate that is somewhere between 4% and 10% per year, it is likely that their bitcoin stash will grown in value faster than they withdraw, especially if they calculate their withdrawal rate plan from BTC bottom price indicators, such as the 200-WMA rather than getting overly excited about spot prices that are almost inevitably going to have a whole hell of a lot of variability in them, so if they calculate their wealth (or the value of their holdings based on top prices they may well end up overly withdrawing and overly depleting their principle. and end up getting kicked out of fuck you status. meaning that their chosen withdrawal rate was not sustainable in light of the costs of their living standards..
