It kinda makes sense to me that each successive bull market delivers a lower return. After all, it takes a lot more money to move Bitcoin at $50k...
But there's no guarantee this crash/recover/boom cycle will keep repeating. Often, when a pattern becomes this obvious, and everyone just expects...
No debt (mortgage/loans paid off) but I'm retired and living off savings/investments. Losing 70% of those savings/investments would be life...
