I just realized working a job has one advantage...

It gives you a direct, tangible sense of money's physical reality. People who stay in crypto long-term lose all sense of what money actually means.

Working makes you appreciate how hard-earned money is. You grind away ten, even fifteen-plus hours a day, and your daily wages can't even cover the fees on a single trade or the funding costs.

If you've made money in crypto and then lost it all back due to overconfidence and reckless trading, do yourself a favor and get a real job. That's when you'll learn to truly value the money in your hands. When the next bull market comes around, you'll actually be disciplined enough to hold. That's how you truly build wealth.
