I am but I am kinda digging it. I spent $3k in credit card to buy some alts in September. Right now I am paying down the debt and that requires me to have a food budget below $100. So far my investment is paying off, being worth 8k as of now.
I literally live on rice, eggs, canned tuna, cheap spam, chicken breast, potatoes, and onion, garlic, spinach, and broccoli as veggies. I have turned off the heaters to save in electricity despite it being sub 5 degrees outside so I am keeping myself warm with a blanket and hot drinks. I also turn down the cooling thresholds on my CPU and GPU to create some heat although it's limited. It honestly feels quite comfy.
You doubled your investment? Literally how? I'm 93% down from my initial.

living poor while not actually being poor is comfy as fuck

the difference between having some nice gains and being 90% down is literally one or two months less of being a normie in most cases, even if you don't successfully trade at all.
Sorry user, but you were the normies we were all waiting for who pumped everyone's bags.

>I also turn down the cooling thresholds on my CPU and GPU to create some heat although it's limited. That doesn't do what you think it does. Running the fans actually heats up your room more.

It's OK, just don't let the pipes freeze up!

You ain't living poor until you're pissing in milk jugs to save water.

I bought in March 2017 tho, you we're in before that?
Daniel Price
then you really shouldn't be down 93%. What did you do, make a ton of terrible trades or go almost all in on Confido or something?

I live frugally but do spend money for food that isn't junk or fast food. I don't plan on changing even if I make money sometime in the future through a better job or whatever, because living like this means have less responsibility and less stuff to be a burden on you.
The more stuff you own... it's like a horcrux. Each expensive item you own that you care about requires a piece of your soul. If you accumulate too much garbage there will be nothing left of yourself.
