EXCELLENT ADVICE!
And to sustain what you said, I would like to post here the "story" of DarthCoin, to be an example for all those newbies into Bitcoin, to be aware.
I don't want to hijack your post @kepford, so guys please send sats to OP not to me.
The story is simple and go back in 2012. Yes, I am strong HODLer from 2012.
One day of June 2012, I went to buy some beers, with 20 cuckbucks in my pocket. At the entrance of the grocery store I met an old friend... very old friend that didn't saw him for years. Let's call it ObiWan. A very humble old man, exactly like in Star Wars.
So he told me: "Don't buy those beers now, come with me I want to show you something". So we went to his house, near by.
His desk was full of books, computers and on his screen was a BitcoinQT (the old core client) open with a large amount of BTC.
I didn't understand at that moment that were money. But he start explaining me and gave me printed the Bitcoin whitepaper, telling me to read at home and understand it. It is the most important paper for humanity.
So he said: ok give me those 20 bucks and I will give you right now 1BTC, so you could start it. And that's how I got my 1st BTC. And I still have it.
Then he told me:

"If somebody will want to strike down Bitcoin, it will make it even stronger than we can imagine."

That phrase remained in my head for some years, until I decided to take the nym DarthCoin. The phrase is almost the same as in Star Wars, about The Force.
Funny thing is that I went home and my wife asked me where are the beers and I said: I met ObiWan and I drink them all with him 😂
She never know that I bought 1BTC, not even today.
So all these years 2012 until now I learned, I mined, I bought, I earned, I studied a lot about Bitcoin. NEVER EVER used any shitcoin. ONLY Bitcoin.
So I saw all the ups and down, all the fights, all the cycles all the halvings. Oh yeah, halvings are brutal... I am tired to see dips. Dips are the most funnier, is when you see all your friends calling you. And I just laugh.
Be like this little guy...
Accumulate, spend, replace. Repeat. Ignore all the FUD and all the price hype.
Thanks for sharing DarthCoin. I will zap myself shortly.

Why did the wise investor skip buying $20 worth of beer?
Because they felt a force that by investing that money instead, they'd be brewing up a fortune!
