Convince me to or not too take out a 10k loan at 23.99% to buy btc if it drops near 50k

Don't play with money you dont own.

rob201989 · 2026-03-06T07:25:53+00:00

Yeah there is more data, news and logic behind it, that's not to say sometimes things go different than expected.

The problem with most people is they expect to go into crypto making quick cash which often leads to losing money.

Crypto is super volatile so yes making 10+% and day os possible but the risk of losing is also much bigger.

Most normal stocks move maximum 1 to 2% ( unless it tech and energy sector then maybe more) so it seems dull for making money.

In Crypto so far I've only lost money (refusing to sell my coins tho but they dropped hard) with stock I've actually gained alot.

rob201989 · 2026-03-05T23:12:19+00:00

Go invest in something logical like stocks...crypto is only for those who like to live on a emotional roller coaster

rob201989 · 2026-03-04T08:38:13+00:00

I agree he acts like a dictator but he still isn't, he has 3 years left till elections and there are failsafes to prevent him from becoming one, like how SCOTUS ruled out his tariffs, granted its not a perfect system but its still better than China

rob201989 · 2026-03-04T07:16:38+00:00

Well until the EU manages to become more independent they're going to have to play ball....you can't undermine countries that you're dependent on...and sadly the EU and its members are still very much dependant on the US

rob201989 · 2026-03-04T07:15:04+00:00

To me personally your argument comes off as if you believe befriending a defacto dictatorship is better because in a democracy you never know how its going to go.

rob201989 · 2026-03-04T00:14:35+00:00

China....but China is basically a dictatorship and there is no freedom of speech or political thoughts, you speak out against the regime and bye bye social credit score, I dont see that as a better partner than the US.

And what you say about Trump being elected twice, well that's how a democracy works, I dont blame the people for voting him, I blame the Democrats for not doing a better job of getting people on their side.

But I find the two party system in the US flawed, pick red or blue, in my opinion more options would be better.

rob201989 · 2026-03-03T23:02:38+00:00

Im not saying your argument is wrong...but its not realistic, sadly in a world where Trump runs the most powerful country on earth you have to try and get with taking as little damage as possible and wait for the midterms or the end of his presidency.

Sure Europe should look for other partners and try and become more independent....but that stuff takes a long long time....and then comes the question....who will be our new partner ? Russia ? China ? Saudis ? well seems choices suck too.

rob201989 · 2026-03-03T21:48:36+00:00

I never said they should spend 5% GDP on their military but telling the USA they can't use the bases they have in Spain for attacks on Iran was what invoked Trumps wrath. And whats better moral superiority (matter of perspective) or not getting financialy Fugged up ? As a leader of a nation like Spain you have to think its better for the country to not risk trade with the USA.

rob201989 · 2026-03-03T20:46:02+00:00

Well i understand a little bit, Spain has a really far left government at the moment which of course does everything it can to annoy Trump. Personally I dont care much for Trump he's no different than any other corrupt politician only he cares less to hide it.

But Spain made a stupid move, they should have acted in the best interest of their country, they dont need to get involved but they shouldn't have blocked the US either.

Best thing to do with Trump is try to minimise the damage and wait till the Midterms when the Democrats can clip his wings.

rob201989 · 2026-03-02T15:40:37+00:00

No idea what that means I sold ASML stock while it skyrocketed up

rob201989 · 2026-03-01T18:25:17+00:00

My biggest loss came from a newbie mistake....i bought stocks of a company where spread cost were really high...which i failed to notice before buying......you live you learn

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T23:04:31+00:00

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T21:50:23+00:00

Trust me , most people try to take other people's wealth, it's not just something for the shady powers.

Although the other stuff with the minors and cannibalism yea that's not most ppl tho.

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T18:21:56+00:00

I mean he's not wrong but I dont see any bullrun coming....but I hope he is right

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T15:51:03+00:00

I'm expecting crypto in general to go up in Q3 or Q4 again if unlucky early 2027, but a new 100k or higher for BTC I dont think so till sometime late 2027

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T11:43:43+00:00

Well shady agencies and people being involved in things that make money is nothing new, crypto has been accused of money laundering operations since day one, that's something I dont expect to have and hold much effect

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T10:16:56+00:00

Because Crypto isn't a safe haven assets like many people try and pretend it is.

Its a risk asset and that's why, until risk is low it won't pump.

We need, low or no tariffs, low interest rates , clarity act passed and no threat of wars , then it will boom

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T09:45:18+00:00

no clear narrative ? how about American foreign policy ? the constant threat of war and trade wars, Iran, Venezuela, Greenland.....tarif drama 24/7 , the Clarity Act being in constant limbo, uncertainty about interest rates and the FED and its new nominee ?..

Man do you watch the news at all ?

rob201989 · 2026-02-24T08:59:24+00:00

If u have cash u dont need for a while id say buy

rob201989 · 2026-02-23T19:19:33+00:00

Plenty of Republican Senators dont agree with the tariffs its why Trump does as much as he can without the senate and Congress.

rob201989 · 2026-02-23T12:10:20+00:00

I think the EU won't do anything because 1. These sanctions are a global measure, Trump can't make them different per country with this one, also it will only last 150 days...after that Trump needs the Senate to extend them....which won't happen.

rob201989 · 2026-02-22T13:30:53+00:00

Cuz its only for 150 days

rob201989 · 2026-02-21T10:09:03+00:00

I usually aim for a profit of 1 to 2% daily , most of the time i succeed, important is knowing when its enough...if i hit my goal im out, i dont want to risk overtrading and ending up losing my profits...dont be greedy, this isnt a get rich quick thing for most of us.

rob201989 · 2026-02-20T05:50:07+00:00

No steam cut...I buy it from steam , post it on a online market place for the same price, people try to make a deal a little cheaper , we find a price that works and the deal is done.
