In 2025, I would get so stressed over the market dumping because I was just so overexposed to so many different kinds of risk assets
I was dabbling heavily in covered-call stocks, MSTR and Base alts
No index funds
No BTC
No Majors
Low Savings
Lost around $10,000 that year and at one point I actually broke down
This year, I told myself to manage risks better, and as of this month, my allocations are:
> Savings and Stable/Yield: 45%
> Index Funds: 29%
> BTC: 14%
> Trading: 9.5%
> Others: 2.5%
Yes it still sucks to see market go down and my trading port lose a lot but I can weather the storm better now because I know I'm not going to 0
As
@ProofOfTravis once told me, "in this industry, making money isn’t as hard as people think, it’s sitting on your hands and avoiding distractions that is the hardest part."
So I size into few conviction bets with whatever I can afford to and wait while the boring DeFi yield and index funds grows the rest of my stack
