How greed can affect people a.k.a I saw character development in my girlfriend

Hello,

I just wanted to share a small story about how I saw my girlfriend's attitude change during these bullish times.

I started getting into crypto in May, after one of my friends turned 100 euros into 1500 with dogecoin (hint: he got lucky!).

I have kept my investments secret from my girlfriend, she only knew that I was in, but not by how much.

I was always telling her that I was x% down, mainly, from -50% in late May to -15% a couple of weeks ago. At this time I showed her how much money I put in these three months, basically around 50% of my monthly savings each month. She flipped a bit, told me that I had put too much money in and that I should not put any more..

Fast forward to a few days ago I showed her I had gains, she was quite happy for me, it was the first time in months.. she did not say anything about putting in more money.

Just one day after the big gains, basically yesterday, there was a -5% change. I told her this faking real sadness and .. she said "well if it's going down you need to buy! you still have *** euros in that bank account, right? :D she has the right attitude I guess, wanting to buy this minuscule dip and dca, but I was very surprised to ever hear her saying I should put more money into it after first basically urging me to stop investing for now xD.

The moral of the story is .. people can get overwhelmed by feelings (especially greed), and I don't think crypto is a good place to be sentimental. Patience and cold blood will probably yield a good result, but it doesn't hurt to be happy when you see some gains or to take some out :)

Thanks for reading this, have a good day!
