 I went into stonks in 2020 as well. It was stressful dealing with all the retarded fud and analysis. Moved to crypto in 2022 and then bitcoin maxi a few months later. Dumped the last of my stonks in 2023 🫡 
 Good for you! 🔥 
 The volatility is a feature and brings lots of opportunities. 
 Volatility isn’t a problem once you understand what you own. The legendary investor Peter Lynch says, “know what you own.” Most investors in stonks don’t know what they own. They don’t know why they should own it except that they think it’s going up in price because some YouTube influencoor said so. But when you know what you own, you understand its value outside of the price. So you can stomach the volatility. The nice thing about Bitcoin is you only need to know what you own once. In stonks, what you own can change quarter to quarter. And you constantly have to look for new stonks. The work never ends, it’s a second job. Bitcoin gives you back so much of your free time🫡
