Let's not deceive ourselves here because we all know that bitcoin is a long-term investment, and for us to comfortably invest in bitcoin and hold our bitcoin investment for 4-10 years, we will need a steady income that guarantees us discretionary income, but if our steady income doesn't guarantee discretionary income, we have to work on our source of income to get a better one that guarantees discretionary income. We don't need to be in a hurry or force ourselves to invest in Bitcoin when we have a steady income that doesn't guarantee discretionary income because if we do that, we might use the money meant for our expenses to invest in Bitcoin, and we will fail in our Bitcoin investment because when the time to solve our expenses comes, we will have no choice than to depend on our Bitcoin investment to solve it. If a contractor who is not certain when to get the next contract in a year after completing 2-3 contracts starts to invest in Bitcoin, the contractor might end up selling his Bitcoin along his accumulation process because he will save up money he will use in the future to solve his expenses in case he doesn't get any other contract, and when he notices he's not consistent in accumulating Bitcoin, he might get upset and sell his Bitcoin out of anger. We surely need a steady income and discretionary income to get it right with Bitcoin investment.
You made a point there. But then again, as a person who want wants a good life, you’re ought to have a steady source of income, and to be an average person in the society, you need to have a multiple sources of income in order to keep up. Just as you gave an example of a contractor, knowing too well that contracts doesn’t come often should make other plans in getting other sources of income. By so doing, can use a discretionary income in buying bitcoin, using DCA methods. For me, once you’re working and earning, you can invest in bitcoin, no matter how little which also works along with determination and discipline
It's only lack of proper money management that will make a contractor sell off his Bitcoin holdings just for survival, do not forget that Bitcoin investment is for everyone, and as a contractor you can invest in Bitcoin once your discretionary income is available through the contract you got. You must not invest weekly or monthly, but you can invest anytime your won a contract, from the discretionary income that came out from it, and if your money management skills is good you will be successful in it because as we all know, contractors earns a lot, they can fend for themselves with a single contract for a year, on that note, if he knows how to manage his money very well, he will definitely have a huge emergency and reserve funds in place that can salvage the days that he will be out of work for an extended period of time, so a contractor can invest in Bitcoin and be successful if he knows how to manage his finance proper, and if he can add another source of income, it would even be more in a safer side financially than someone that is just relying on a sincere income.
