No Lambo, But Here Is What I Did With My Crypto Profits

in #crypto7 years ago

Over the last two months every coin I had went up in value and I cashed out some of my profits. I used the cash to do what any reasonable person would do. Pay bills. lol

After paying bills and a nice dinner with the wife, I splurged with all the remaining money! Here is what I got.

I went to the Salvation Army and got two fun books for only 50 cents. Obviously the Gnome one will come in handy one day when garden gnomes take over.


My splurging didn't stop there. I went ahead and got a boat, a sub and even a shark. Plus I got a great book on CD by the adventure man himself, Clive Cussler. All of this set me back about two Ripple or $3.50.

I'm saving the best for last though. This one put a dent in my pocket. For around the price of one PIVX, I got me the 8-Bit Stranger Things Pop! of Eleven with Eggos. That's right!!! I got it at Target, and it was kinda hidden in the back. I'm pretty stoked about my purchase.


So it's no Lambo, but I'm still grinding. It was tough to separate with about one OMG, but I have to admit, I'm happy with my purchases. 

Looking forward to seeing what I can buy the next time I take out profit. lol

On a serious note, check out this great blog from @nanzo-scoop where he talks about taking profit.

Tomorrow I am taking it for a desert drive!

Dude that is freaking awesome!!! I am a big jeep guy. I mean, I like my 11 with eggos, but I would trade that for a jeep like that for sure. lol. Thanks for sharing. I hope you post pictures of you taking it out to the desert. Thanks for reply!

If I am not stuck in the sand and make it back to civilization, will sure post some photos!

hahaha, you could go viral though if you get stuck. Be safe, man and have fun!

Way to go! Cashing some out when you were supposed to, hehe.

Glad you cashed some out to buy some needed tangible things. I think this is important for anyone to do in this market.

lol, I'm not sure how needed they are... other than the gnome book of course. lol I agree with you though, it can't just be all red and green numbers on a screen.
Thanks for your reply and for supporting my content.

give me some tips too so can do something with my too

I'll try and put it in a blog for you soon.

thanks for that really need it

Don’t blame you. Always good to reward our efforts. Maybe next time for the lambo...?

I agree. I spent most on bills and the house, but the rest I'm saving for a trip to Disney. lol

I just hope one day I can earn a bit. Enjoying the platform either way though.

I was just having this conversation with my friend the other day. He's (and me) HODLing but kicking himself in the butt for not taking some off the exchange, like paying himself since he does trading pretty much all day, every day. Need to have some fun with the money you make, even if it means you have a little less capital to invest. Never know when everything might go belly up, hehe. Hope you make some awesome trades today!hodl.jpg

Thanks buddy! It is just smart to take profits I think. That assures you are doing the right thing. I don't day trade too much, but I'll make a move or two a week. I wish I could just watch all day, but don't have that luxury right now. Thanks for the reply and hope you have a great day.

Day trading is definitely not for the weak of heart. I tried it a couple times and got a bit of grey in my beard out of it. Now I'm thinking long term, learning from not only my screwups but my friends as well :)

Don't worry. The Lambo will come soon;) I think I'll have to get a copy of the garden gnome book, though. It looks interesting.

lol, that's what I thought. Anyone that would take the time to write a book like that is going to be interesting. lol

Nice steemians set! I wish to see what you will do with the next salary

All the best for you and your wife!

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. You got a new follower.

the whole crypto market is green now📈 last weekend it was a blood bath with my portfolio being down 40%. Never sell for a loss, and always buy the dips for some better profits 📉📈 #crypto101 #cryptocrash

I couldn't agree more. I cashed out on the 8th and got pretty lucky. lol. I just bought back in a bunch of coins yesterday, so I'm feeling pretty good right now. Thanks for the reply. Hope all is well.
