I saw a picture on X, talking about how an author’s friend has been in the circle for many years and is already retired. He thought his life would be worry-free, renting a large villa in Chiang Mai, surfing, meditating, and working out, living a free and pleasant life. Unexpectedly, he encountered a black swan event, and overnight, his low-leverage long positions were liquidated, and 5 million dollars vanished in an instant.

Reading this, I felt deeply: making money isn't scary if it's slow, but you must definitely secure your profits, withdraw regularly, and not put all your funds into high-risk trades. High leverage and short-term speculation can evaporate in an instant. Safety first, returns second, so you can truly enjoy the pleasures of a free life.

I also plan to adjust my strategy, increasing my regular investments in quality assets like Binance's $BNB , diversifying my investments, not using leverage, withdrawing in a timely manner, accumulating steadily over the long term, not betting on black swans, and not chasing short-term thrills. Wealth growth is not about getting rich overnight, but rather a stable, controllable, long-term result.
