still enjoy myself with nights out, probably once or twice a month.

limit alcohol to Saturday's only.
I'm keen to have a whiskey shot or two during the week.

not frugal, but similar.

2025-03-16 20:38:54

first things first.
put the btc Prague trip on the credit card.

2025-03-08 19:50:42

I AM a compulsive gambler
LAST bet September 30th 2017
FOUND bitcoin December 2017 for the second time after initially finding it in a computer forum around 2013-2015
BOUGHT bitcoin for the first time March 2018
So raw in my mind from the gambling
I CHANGED to saving for the first time
BITCOIN turned my life around
NEVER had money before, always gambled it away
Learned slowly the worth of bitcoin
Gained my mental health back, gained confidence, gained self esteem
However, due to my bad mental health I let my teeth rot out
NOW I have a routine through wet shaving, skincare, fragrances, proper fitted clothes
BITCOIN is keeping me humble

2025-03-07 23:10:29

ONLY on nostr , deleted ALL other social media

2025-03-07 10:10:03

we expected the US not to sell anymore bitcoin. that's exactly what they did.
waiting on them to purchase more bitcoin, for a strategic reserve
that's what were waiting for

2025-03-05 21:32:29

btc Prague fully sorted out my slight error.
see you in Prague in June 20/21

researching upgrading my bitcoin node.
currently using raspi pi 4 4gb.
noticing blockchain can stop syncing occasionally.
storage has plenty of space.
looking at mini PC hosting start9.
self hosting data, password manager, btc and lnd nodes, nextcloud, syncthing, and others.

Cheers, what got me used to bitcoin so easy is the variance. Similar to my graphs in poker mtts.
my graphs were Luke straight up, gradual down and repeat
bitcoin so much more spiky

2025-01-05 12:14:46

The question is, I have a euro pension, and auto enrolment pension coming this year
Should I stop depositing into my private euro pension?
Earliest I can touch it is at 60. Quite a ways away
However my % of euro in my pension vs my sat stack is 13% to 87%
Currently 87% #bitcoin, that is only going to increase its %
Using the euro pension has some diversification

2025-01-05 12:09:40

Even though proof of keys day has passed, will be switching to a full bitcoin standard using bringing.xyz

I was also a professional poker player, but also a compulsive gambler, bad mental health. confidence. self esteem, health. Due to this lost all my teeth.
Stopped gambling and then poker, found Bitcoin, changed my life around.
A full 360. Got everything back bar my teeth and sadly no friends. Least I'm back in full time work and got friends.
Life can throw you so many obstacles

And my portfolio % is 90% #bitcoin , 10% euro pension, and this Bitcoin % us only going to increase

2025-01-04 19:13:30

its simply worth it to be in SATs that are not fiat that's down over 99% vs #bitcoin

Still need to keep some euro for bills

2025-01-04 18:30:21

Also using Bisq to buy KYC free #bitcoin. And Join market with Jam for mixing.
Then sending to cold storage

2025-01-04 18:24:37

Just had a meeting with Tony from The Bitcoin Way.
He praised my self custody multi signature cold storage setup. Aided with GPG encryption of my #bitcoin files.
A few pointers to improve on, like update the wallet's, and my inheritance plan to start working on.
Overall I am pleased I set things up correctly.
I praise drduh on github for his yuibke guide, and the 10x security #bitcoin guide from Michael Flaxmann for cold storage.

I am using a private pension alongside my stack of bitcoin.
My portfolio consists of 90% bitcoin 10% fiat pension
Thinking of moving closer to a full bitcoin standard as best I can
All my bills need paid in fiat, annoying
Workarounds
Eating more healthy, rice lentils, kidney beans, chickpeas, unprocessed fresh meat, potatoes, vegetables, soya milk, caffeine free
Vitamin supplements
Whiskey and Beer in moderation
Lots of water
Drinking Rooibos tea, Hot Coco
So much more energy, more awake more of the day

2024-12-29 17:25:17

Now I'm using multi signature cold storage, seed backed up on metal off site. Taking privacy and security seriously
I'm using GNU/Linux for my desktop computer
My mobile is running CalyxOS
Running a bitcoin node for private transactions
Now only buying KYC FREE sats only
Using private VPN
Use Tor browser also
Have ZERO social media.
WhatsApp required for work
Using Nostr for my communication
Fountain for Podcasts
Compulsive Gambler turned saver in bitcoin
Literally 3 months after my last bet found bitcoin
Life changing
I had severe mental health problems
No confidence
No self esteem
Lack of health
Lost all my teeth due to this
Gamble free since 2017
Use skincare routine
Use wet shaving, Double Edge safety razors
Gave me my confidence, self esteem, mental health ALL turned around
Thanks to Bitcoin
Stay humble and stack sats

2024-12-29 14:06:58

Keeping it small talk, then no more, up to them

2024-12-29 14:06:30

Stayed humble....
Only started to talk about bitcoin once we hit 6 figures to friends

2024-12-29 14:03:04

Now I've transitioned into monthly buys using the rest of my poker bankroll.
That's all my spare money into sats

2024-12-29 13:59:42

Did dabble in the alt coins, then up to 6 months later consolidated into less coins.
Then up to another 6 months transitioned into Bitcoin ONLY

2024-12-29 13:58:02

A few months before the first purchase.
Straightaway understood and withdrew to electrum wallet, then later onto HW

2024-12-29 13:56:08

Got it at around 8.8k

2024-12-29 13:55:46

first heard about bitcoin was around 2013-2015, unclear since it was on a computer forum using GPU mining.
Brushed it off
Then finally paid notice when I saw it reached 20k in 2017.
Went down the rabbit hole

2024-12-29 13:52:37

Former poker player online. Used to the variance. Learnt about the value of money
