50 sats \ 3 replies \ @optimism 17h \ parent \ on: Need Feedback from my Stackers: Should I spend Bitcoin on a Car? bitcoin
Gotta live a little, but those are also things we're most likely to regret. I'm with you on letting it be for a while.
There were/are people who bought cars and crap in 2015. They had that much Bitcoin to be able to spend 10s of thousands worth because 'they could'.
But today? I think most of those people regret it. Some have enough they don't care but most I think wish they had waited.
Thanks for feedback from the Stackers.

I got my first whole coin when it was less than 1200x worth what it is today. It was a curiosity back then and iirc bitpay wasn't even live yet. If I would have saved every coin that passed through my wallets through the years, I would have been extremely rich. And extremely dead, because I've used sats income for years. The NgU just means I don't need to worry as much as I would have had if I'd had the same income in fiat, and I can do more things that are meaningful but do not put any bread on the table. So it's nice, I can afford to not get paid for a while and be ok, despite cost.
The only impulse thing I ever bought with sats was a very nice bottle of cognac, and I don't regret that, even though I could have bought 20 or 30 of those bottles with it today. I enjoyed it.

A nice bottle of Cognac sounds about right. I bought some wine for my mom. And some books. Do I regret that? Absolutely not.
And there were the fries and even a milkshake... That is not a car however.
Always straight talk from the Stackers, Stacker News is awesome.
