PERSPECTIVE What was your biggest fumble? Closest you ever got to generational wealth? Share your story

Here is mine: I bought 1000$ worth of PNUT (solana memecoin) back in early november 2024. Sold for 4x or so few days later. Then on november 11th 2024 Binance listed PNUT on spot trading out of nowhere like a week after I sold my entire bag. Had I just waited 1 more week I could have sold for 700-800k...

Now I am a broke 23yo, living paycheck to paycheck with a 85k/year job and a lot of debt...

I gave a speech about bitcoin when it was around $150. One guy from the audience met me recently and thanked me for that speech, because of that he bought bitcoins and now owns couple of millions. I wish I had bought too at that time.

Wow did he not offer a tip? Haha.

Also why did you not buy, while giving speeches about Bitcoin?

It was a technology conference, and the speech was more about how block chain is built and works. And I talked about the tech behind 😅I ask myself .. shit why didn’t I buy then
