I'm telling you, in life, making a fortune truly depends on those few historic big crashes.
But the most ironic thing is, 99% of people, including myself, were so scared during the crash that we scrambled and ran out. Do you remember that time with crude oil? I bought in at 40, thinking I was possessed by Buffett, feeling awesome. And what happened? It dropped all the way to 20. Back then, my palms were sweaty, my mind buzzing, and there was only one voice shouting: Run! If you don't run now, you'll lose even your underwear! And then? I cut my losses in one move. That very night, it dropped to 5. A year later, it was 90. I've done stupid things like that more than once. During SARS, silver was at 11, I bought in. It rose to 15, I was over the moon, quickly sold, feeling I had scored a huge bargain, even added a chicken leg that night. The rest of the story, I won't say. Just tears. So, you see, we all understand the principle, who wouldn't memorize "Be greedy when others are fearful"? But when it really comes to bloodshed and accounts are dropping sharply, your body is much more honest than your brain. What makes you shiver, palpitate, and just want to protect your principal is fear engraved in your genes. Knowledge and logic, at that moment, are useless. What does making money depend on? It’s the cultivation of anti-human nature. It's the courage to step forward boldly when everyone else is retreating on the edge of an abyss. $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT)
