Trying to understand something. I took a 5x leverage play at 13.12 on a crypto. The estimated liquidation price at the time was 10.55. The margin ratio has been about 2% since time of purchase which was been about a week. The price is currently 13.24 so I’m in the profit a couple hundred. Why is the est liquidation price increasing each day?

I have been researching into this these days and there is literature that shares how lending worked in pre-Islamic Arabia.

Subsequently ever year the loan wasn't paid it was doubled from the previous year.

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?

Gift giving help: every year around this time my husband brings up his Jan bday and basically demands I spend a lot of $ on him. I find this stressful. I don’t do big lavish gifts but each year I feel pressure to or he won’t be happy. When I say this he immediately launches into “haven’t I done this for you, bought that for you”. “If you loved me you would”.
