This is awesome. Thinking about doing the same, but how did you think through the risk here? There’s a reason you can get 9%, right? What does everyone else have wrong?

This makes sense. Thanks. Good point about the cascading liquidations in May being a legit stress test

Congrats! why not keep it in BTC and earn interest on that? That way you can capture any cap gains too? I’m at a similar $ amount but earn ~$36k/yr + cap gains.

I have $60K in USDC at voyager.. but it wasn't crypto earrings this was my earnings that I transferred in.

Have another $40K I can throw in... Wonder if this is better or should just stick to index funds.

The way I think about it:

In the past, people would invest 60/40 in stocks and bonds. Stocks gave a higher upside and bonds provided a stable income + decorrelation.

Right now, due to extremely low yields, bonds are basically uninvestible. They pay less than inflation so I'm using stablecoin lending as a better equivalent.

I expect, in a high inflation environment, for VOO to outperform 9%, but 9% is stable and beats inflation.

Can someone explain the risk/reward here to me in layman’s terms

Thoughts on Voyageur vs BlockFi? I’ve heard BlockFi is less risky and returns are more stable but Voyageur seems to have better returns?

That's the trade-off

Are you not concerned for capital risk ?!?!?

I acknowledge the risk, but also the opportunity

Need some advice on renting here in ATX.

Back in May 2021, I rented a property that had sustained damage during the big snow storm. This wasn't disclosed at lease signing. The home leaked every time it rained, mold was found in the home & the LL failed to make repairs that resulted in me falling down a flight of stairs. I moved out& rented an apt for 2 mos before signing a lease on the house I live in now. This house has a serious big problem& I've found mold here too. Continued below

Crying for my RSUs….started at my company about 6 months ago and got some RSUs split over 3 years.

Stock price has been cut in half since then, along with my RSU value. 😭 how do I cope?
