Our level of aggressiveness or whimpiness is a choice, and there are ways to be aggressive without overdoing it, and surely the more aggressive we are, the more we run the risk of overdoing it in one way or another.. yet I doubt that being aggressive is a negative because we are able to tailor it to our own aspirations, and try to keep in mind if we might be pushing the boundaries too much in terms of starting to have negative consequences associated with our level of aggressiveness.

You are absolutely right, aggressiveness itself is a negative energy that brings in bad results, which can damage an individual lives.

Though aggressiveness is an emotion, which can be control by an individual if they don't want it to escalate, because if not control or balanced, it can affect in different areas of life like relationships, work etc.

Also, having self-regulation can help in adjusting their emotions or balancing to prevent any negative things that will be caused by aggression.

Your bot might need to better learn how to comprehend what you are reading... You are mischaracterizing, misunderstanding and/or perhaps you have no fucking clue about what I said. You are just making up your own bullshit spin.

In regards to bitcoin investing, we use the term aggressive to show how much a guy might prioritize investing into bitcoin so relatively speaking he chooses a higher level of his discretionary income is put into bitcoin, so the more and more aggressive he is, then he might make mistakes and overdo it or miscalculate and go beyond his discretionary income. So, sometimes guys can inadvertently overdo their aggressiveness in their bitcoin buying, and I frequently proclaim that guys should attempt to invest into bitcoin as aggressive as they can without overdoing it, so they have to figure out how much investing into bitcoin and prioritizing investing into bitcoin is enough, but not too much for them and their circumstances..

For sure, so many folks do not invest in bitcoin at all, so it seems to me that it would be better for them to choose to invest into bitcoin, even if they were to invest into bitcoin whimpily rather than not at all, so from my perspective, investing whimpily into bitcoin is better than not investing at all.

In the end, each of us chooses whether or not to invest into bitcoin, and then we also choose our level of aggressiveness or our whimpiness in terms of how much of our discretionary income we invest into bitcoin. We have to have discretionary income in order to invest in bitcoin, otherwise if we buy bitcoin out of money that we need for expenses, then we are trading/gambling rather than investing and we are also overdoing our aggressiveness from my perspective.

There is no exact right answer, even though there are consequences to our actions, and historically, bitcoin has rewarded those who have invested into it and has rewarded those who aggressively invested into bitcoin even moreso, since bitcoin has been a quite positively performing asset, and aggressiveness was rewarded, so long as they did not overdo it. Since we are currently at all time highs in our BTC prices, anyone who errored on the side of investing into bitcoin over the years, has ended up doing quite well over the years, and sure the longer that they have been in bitcoin, buying bitcoin and holding bitcoin the better for their finances, yet they also need to have enough income to be able to pay for their living expenses while they are investing into bitcoin over the years.

You can buy with your discretionary income using DCA method. How much of your discretionary income you invest is entirely up to you. But I think if you invest 5% to 25% of your discretionary income, it will be much better for you. You can buy aggressively during the downturn with the remaining money you have.

A standard of aiming for 5% to 25% of a guys income to go into bitcoin is referring to general income, not to discretionary income.

Of course if a guy is investing 25% of his income into bitcoin, there is a presumption that the discretionary income is at least 25% of the guy's regular income, and then if is investing 100% of his discretionary income, he might be on the border of overdoing it.

There are some guys who have fairly high levels of discretionary income, so surely the higher their discretionary income, the more options they have in regards to how to use such discretionary income, whether investing, consumption or putting into back up funds.

It would be erroneous to suggest that guys invest 5% to 25% of their discretionary funds and act as if that would automatically be reasonable, since for some folks such levels of investment into bitcoin might be whimpy or overly whimpy in terms of their overall abilities, and/or wants.

You brought up a great point and I agree that the discussion around Bitcoin Investment shouldn't necessarily have to be a competition with others but rather it should be a competition with your limitations and circumstances.

Each person's financial situation and goals are different. What might seem aggressive to one person might be too normal for another person. For example a Father supporting his family allocate 40% of his discretionary income and still feel he's investing too much but on the other hand a single person would feel 40% normal or even little and can invest 70-80%.

I also liked how you mentioned the importance of flexibility in making decisions. But it's not just about weekly DCA it's about how a person reacts to unexpected income like bonuses or profits. If he invests it, saves it or spends it. This reflects the persons strategy, risk management and overall mindset.

In the end, I think the goal isn’t to match or beat someone else's level of aggression it’s to find a balance that you are satisfied with and can spend your life. being aggressive doesn't have to mean being reckless.it means pushing limits while still being in your comfort zone.
