"Don't invest more than you can afford to lose"

Bullshit. Who out here can afford to lose? We're all fighting to survive in a world ruled by oligarchs where earning wages grinds you down and then inflation waters down your ashes into a slurry of tard. People give this holier than thou advice constantly around here, when really we're all making individualized decisions about where to tuck away our few extra dollars. If you could afford to lose, you wouldn't still be living in your parents' basement, Jeff. But that doesn't mean you don't belong here. Blockchain technology had a lot of misplaced early investment. That's life, this is how we learn the hard way together the lessons we were all too greedy to learn the easy way for each of us. Right, don't invest your entire life savings in one coin, but if we all just put everything we "couldn't afford to lose" in a savings account we'd be hosed for sure. If you think you have certainty or stability in life, it's because you're already rich. If you're poor, it's a gamble no matter what.
