I was gonna buy $1000 of bitcoin in 2016 but I couldn’t find my passport to verify my identity with Coinbase and then forgot about it. Ah well.

Would you have $100k now or would you have sold it when it tripled to $3000 because that would've felt like a really good return already, though?

Yeah this is the story I tell myself to make me feel better. I may well have even more regret! Or thought I was an investment genius and invested loads more and then sold it at a bad time.

That is basically my strategy. Everything I buy is with the intent of selling in a couple of decades when retirement comes, at the earliest.

		It's a great strategy as long as there's agreement between people and that the "S&P500" (paste your) means something :)
