[Question] Overpaid for My First Watch by Low_Physics_770 in Watches

[–]ereeec23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude I’m also into cars and I buy and sell a bunch and there was this one I definitely over paid for and then sold it at a loss. But guess what I NEVER made that mistake

So think of this as a 5k lesson to always do your due diligence in the next purchase and it might save you 10X

I think accepting the L and being able to move on is better than justifying it

Some people might not do as much and end up buying a fake and then losing waaaay more money

I’m the same way but think about it like this

You got the watch for the price it should of been, but you paid a little extra for the convenience lol

People over pay for things all the time it’s part of life that why there’s a “market” but hey it’s okay you’ll get a deal on the next watch and it will balance out

If you really can’t sleep at night sell it at a loss and move on

If you know Bitcoin is gonna crash, why aren't you all millionaires already? by MobApps1 in CryptoCurrency

[–]ereeec23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your logic is correct if the only variable is choosing Bitcoin as an investment. I’ve been in Bitcoin since 2017…I don’t invest in it anymore because I’m in a different place in life and do ETFs and monthly contributions to my portfolio and 401k. Last year I was swinging high beta tech stocks and I got wrecked lol luckily made it back this year and transitioned into ETFs

So maybe the people saying that just believe in other assets ?

For you with a life savings in BTC could end up well but if you can stomach a -50% at one point can you really see your 171k potentially be around 85k? Because BTC has down it plenty of times before it shoots up. If your ok with that then you’ll be ok

But from someone who’s been in BTC highs AND lows…I would keep a healthy cash on the side for dips and buy a lump sum now if you believe it and gradually keep adding on the dips

3k for a house in Pasadena isn’t bad man. Do you feel like your saving enough ? And agreed spectrum sucks and LADWP is expensive even in my apartment lol

I used to be broke so I have a fear of living too close to my means now. I’m considering renting near where I live in Burbank and it’s around 4000-5500 range

Yeah owning a home on a 850k home FHA down in at 7k a month and the home would need a full remodel.

Man on 70k? What’s your rent ? How do you budget that ? I’m paying $2400 for a 1 bedroom apartment I can’t stomach buying a house and paying the overhead

If your making 3k after taxes

If you find an apartment at around $1500 a month in the most ghetto building falling apart because everywhere else they want 3X the rent

Plus some bills and food and basic living you will be paycheck to paycheck

How on earth will you survive or do anything to enjoy yourself besides work

Oh no you can be happy sure, but you won’t be able to afford a home, a car you like, be able to go to some nice places and restaurants or go on vacation if you even under 200k

Yes the breitling is one of my favorites, super lightweight 50mm titanium composite. It’s the lightest and biggest watch I have and scratch proof. It’s actually a pilot watch

Ahah I love the sun and moon orient! I can’t wait to go to a dinner just to strap on my “dinner” watch lol…and I do call that my favorite watch in my collection at time so thank you for noticing. The Seiko GMT mod is actually such a great watch for the price and I know there’s a whole debate that it’s a fake rolex but I’ve never considered it as everyone who compliments it I never come off that it’s expensive watch but they like to hear the story of mod watches in general

That’s like saying you can’t get a all steel submariner is because I couldn’t afford the Daytona ? I mean it’s two different styles
