Thank you r/cryptoCurrency for completely turning my life around.

First of, I apologize for the grammar, English is not my first language.

This subreddit gets mentioned a lot for giving out terrible advise and how doing the exact opposite is actually the best way of going about it.

This might be true for some of you but for me it really helped me A LOT.

​

I found this subreddit nearly 2 years ago and it actually changed my life.

I used to be always broke and actually terrible at managing money.

​

Drunken poker sessions tilting it all away? Check.

Spending too much money on weed, booze and other drugs? Check.

Spending way too much on magic cards? Check.

Going to the clubs not caring about how much I would spend? Check.

As you can tell I was just the worst.

​

But then I found r/cryptocurrency

​

At first I was like - 'yea let's buy some of this crypto, I also want to be rich and fuck knows I 'need' the money'

But then I started reading more and more and seeing how patient, logical and responsible some of you are it made me realise what an idiot I was.

​

So what changed you ask? A LOT.

​

Security:

I used to just download whatever I'd like on to my PC without a care in the world.

I knew my email was hacked but just did not care.

I had like 2 passwords for everything ( and they we're very similar )

Now I have a separate clean laptop just for crypto.

Now I have 2FA on everything.

Now I use a password manager.

Recently bought a hardware wallet!

​

Money management:

As I said I was always broke spending without any regard for the future. Now I am saving a decent chunk of my income each month and have strict DCA days.

I track my expenses and think about ways to save more money and spend smarter.

No more poker ( I am terrible at it anyway )

Quit magic ( it's dying anyway )

​

Health:

I stopped smoking completely and drink about every other weekend.

Started working out and feel just so much better.

​

So, from the bottom of my heart.

THANK YOU r/CRYPTOCURRENCY
