Hindsight

Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

I’m often caught up in thoughts of the past. Past decisions I regret and those path not taken. I had opportunities for spectacular success and great wealth, had I made a different choice.

In particular, I was an early adopter of Bitcoin (BTC) and mined it with my computers GPU and later using an ASIC device.

Many around me in those early days advised to simply buy and hold BTC, but instead I used my BTC to purchase more mining equipment and pay for services. In the end, as BTC rose in value, I had less and less in hand.

Looking at my wallet logs, I had transacted hundreds of bitcoin and thousands of Litecoin over the years, since 2013.

If I had listened to those folks who advised me to HODL, I would have become a millionaire once BTC hit $10k, and much more these days.

Profit

Litecoin recently went up in value, so I decided to liquidate a third of what I was holding. I got about 1200 dollars from the sale. I was happy to see it go up, but I think I make more profit buying and selling penny stocks. Pot companies are really popular these days, and I have made some great money on Aurora, Chronos, and Shineco.

Aurora, especially, is fun. The other day it opened at like $9.02 and fell to $8.66. I bought around a hundred shares, and I was able to sell them for $9.20 each yesterday. I wish I had gone harder on that one, but I am still happy with a 54-cent per share turnaround.
