cashing out (feddit.it)

Questions: have you ever cashed out a quite substantial (meaning life changing after paid taxes) amount of money to fiat ? Or do you spend it monthly from your savings using tools like prepaid cards ?

The only time I really spent some crypto was with a bitsa card as an experiment but it was just a couple of flight tickets worth.

Sure did.

I had a plan and it worked out. I'm stil invested but with part the "winnings" I was able to pay off the mortgage, sell old place, build a new house and in the end execute a retirement plan ... It took a couple of years but yeah, life changing! ๐Ÿ˜…

Best advice I can give: DO NOT DAY TRADE! Its an investment - know what you hold - don't let yourself to get greedy - and make a plan to take out profit.

Yeah , thanks, good that it worked out so well for you. I put for the long term, but way less money (it was starting to get really interesting at the peak) I cashed out exactly the fiat money i put in.

maybe i'd like a credit card with the balance still kept in bitcoin and converted just in case. With my bitsa once you sent an amount, it's suddenly converted
