Time flies too fast, that is what my Math teacher told me when I was in my first year of College. Then he also said that if we have 1 million in the bank we can just live off of its interest and keeping in mind not to touch the principal (the 1 million) so maybe every quarter of the year we go to the bank, not a day early otherwise we will not get any interest so that we can get a steady stream of money through our deposited money.
That is just a story I heard of him saying so right then and there I dreamed of having a million pesos in the bank so that I can live off with its interest. Quite a cool thing, but how much interest really that a bank gives? I am not really confident in leaving my whole money in the bank because they might freeze it or there might be an event called a "Bank holiday" and Boom! your money...is gone.
That is why I have a crypto of my own reserved for the future. It is my so-called social security, an investment because of course bitcoin can grow much, much more in value in the future and that is a given fact now that PayPal is said to use it for their customers worldwide. That is for me a great factor about BTC going "Mainstream" because Paypal is connected to lots of businesses and people that just wants to use it as their mode of payment or accepting or receiving payments.
Cryptos is my sole source of sourcing my funds to use for my medical needs, for my dialysis which in time gets expensive too with additional bill charges per visit in my center. I am also needing to sustain in managing my Parathyroid with drugs with a very forbidding price. So without cryptos I guess and for sure I will not be around anymore.
So we have a future with Bitcoin, one should just try to own lots of it or at least one because that one Bitcoin could make us get either comfortable or at least a bit secured for our future without worrying about doing business in the government bureaucracy, going in lines to file a claim for our social security.
But with Bitcoin we can already have the power to hold our money everywhere we go. But if we have money in the banks we just have to pray that they would be stable otherwise we can find ourselves penniless and miserable because our money flew just like that without anyone getting the blame for it.
It is just worth it to own or invest in BTC because its supply gets to dwindle every passing four years not to mention the factor of people are accumulating it for the same reason, investing. So its price even though it is volatile (which is good) would go up because of the law of supply and demand which states that if a commodity or a thing is in short supply and there is a demand for it, the value will go up for certain.
Time is the only factor, we just have to wait and wait and get so patient about it and maybe forget about it and then doing other stuffs in our lives and then going back to check the price again only to be greeted with a much more value that we previously knew. That will be in my opinion the safest way as to not lose our investment rather than speculating and selling and buying because BTC's price might leave these current prices and never get back ever again.
Of course we can never hold or "HODL" forever, we would at some point in our lives would need the money and we can just take our either the capital or profit or both and use it for our purposes. We just have to pray that if that event happens BTC is already in the moon or beyond.
