Gm guys,
This thing I want to talk about today, there’s this couple of guys I trade with, these guys are so good they make nothing less than $10k trading everyday with accounts well over $100k, one even made $100k last week on a new wallet,
yet they are still trenching everyday like they have zero. I don’t get it. They’ve gone past the stage of trying to have money, they now have money, but even more, they are now so super skilled at making money from trading memes on chain that they don’t have to be there all day everyday anymore.
Yet you find them desperately looking for the next runner or staying up all night trying to hit the next. I seriously don’t get it. Imagine you need some money, you get into the market spend few hours and you make that money, what do you need to be online trading all day again for?
One of them was even trying to be motivational today, he said he’s been up for so many hours and now he’s feeling sick, that people should take care of their health! OH REALLY?!!! You’re sick after making over $100k in the past week, $40k in the past few hours, and a bag of stables stashed somewhere.
Oh he must be sick of making money, I guess we all want that type of sickness. I certainly wanna be sick of making money at some point in my life.
But seriously, it got me thinking. Maybe it’s no longer about the money for them. Maybe it’s the game. The adrenaline. The dopamine hits. Or maybe, just maybe, they’re addicted to the chase, not the catch.
And you know what? That scares me a little.
Because if someone who already has everything still feels empty without the grind, then what does that mean for the rest of us still on the way up? Is there ever truly a “finish line” in this game?
Anyway, I guess we all play this game for different reasons. Some for freedom. Some for thrill. Some just to feel something. But I hope when my time comes, I remember to actually live.
Until then, we keep trenching. One coin at a time.
