What age to be a millionaire?

[rjthehunter]

Surely we have a few crypto-zillionaires?

From a DM I just recieved.

"I can’t believe how many of my friends have made wife changing money in crypto"

Depends on their standards... some wives would jump ship for a 10k!

As we all know a million isn’t anywhere near what it was just a few years ago. And let’s not forget money don’t mean chit if you don’t have your health.

Liquidate all your stocks and bonds.... and then dump it into bitcoin. Sell in late 2025. Thank me later

@ignorethefringes @grizzly_

I've been in ETH for years now and got some BTC after they approved ETFs (but didn't get enough in hindsight ).

BTC has outperformed the last year, but I think ETHs boom is still coming. It typically trails the halving. I'm looking forward to a good 2025 too

It's f'd when you can make 25% year over year and feel you're losing ground

I feel like a million dollars.......... sometimes.

Reminds me of a good quote I read in a book...

The three big ones in life are wealth, health, and happiness. We pursue them in that order but their importance is reverse.

Statistically, most people can't do simple math.

In 40 years your million will likely turn into $200,000 or the equivalent. When I was a kid a million made you rich, today it doesn't.

This is exactly why generating wealth is so important and you can never stop.

Do most people not consider their home and other real estate as assets? Seems like most people just consider their retirement accounts, stocks, and such. We definitely plan to downsize to a smaller 1000 sq/ft home when our kids are grown.

Yes, definitely.

 

[Pagosa]

So you don't consider it as an asset?

I consider my home an asset, but it has no bearing on my bank account as far how I'm going to pay my bills.

My wife, last child and I live in a small (1150 sq ft) house, and we plant to be here "forever."

The House can't pay my power bill, and I can't scrape hundred dollars bills off of it to make car repairs. But I have to use money to pay taxes on it, and do periodic upkeep. Its a place to keep me warm and secure from the elements. Nothing more.

I do. At times, it’s been my best investment.

That is my thought too.. I can build a pretty nice ICF house for $225-$300 per/ft (not including land) and move just about anywhere.

I would also rather own a house, have no debts, loans, etc and just live a simple live, than a million or two. Money seems to create a lot of divorces, f-up family, issues.
