Have no savings
Hello there, I’m a 41yo man , married with three lovely children. I’m struggling to save money at present . We are lucky to have 0.50 BTC bought years ago.
My wife is a bit depressed as we currently haven’t been able to save much. Life is good, we live comfortably but she gets depressed as we haven’t put much money aside for retirement. If we go on holidays that’s our money gone.
I told her to chill as we have one big chance with btc but she is losing hope. Help me reassure her.
Many thanks

Imagine Bitcoin hanging above 104K while the Fear and Greed index fell down to 50. Oh wait, we don't have to imagine. It's already at 55. Truly, the times have changed.

Public companies snapped up 95,000 BTC in Q1 — and they're raising billions to keep buying. The accumulation phase is heating up.

Buying a house vs investing in BTC
Average 3bed 2.5bath house in Southern California set you back about $1.3M. Not many people have that much money to buy it in cash (if you do, you’re one of the lucky ones). So, you need to get a mortgage with 20% down to avoid the large mortgage insurance. That means you have to have $260K for a down payment and a monthly payment (including taxes, insurance, and HOA fees) of about $8.8K. After 30 years, you have paid to the bank $3,179,393, of which $1,040,000 is the principal and $1,450,893 the interest you have paid to the bank. At that time, if your house value has doubled to $2,600,000, you have lost over $579,000.
If you didn’t buy a house and decided to rent, you can rent a similar house for about $4,500 a month and not worry about any other fees and expenses. If you’re brave enough to dump the $260,000 you have saved for a down payment in BTC, assuming a modest 5% return, after 30 years, you’ll have $1,123,705. In this case, you’ve had a lower rent vs monthly mortgage payment and a gain of over $850,000. Of course, nobody can with certainty predict the future of housing and the price of BTC. But, to me, it seems investing in BTC is a winning choice.
Please DO NOT sell your house and put the proceeds in BTC based on this analysis. Do your own research before investing.

I Got Paid 32 BTC to Wear That Hat and Hold That Sign on a Busy Street in 2011

My brother bought Bitcoin in 2012 - found the wallet address but not the key. Does he have any chance of recovery?
For context, my brother is a bit of an airhead. I think he may have bought this from the context of purchasing illegal things and totally forgot about it.
After years of debt, mistakes and substance abuse, he’s back living with my mum and actually made the attempt to check his email for this bitcoin he always talked about “jokingly” at family events and found that - “hey, that did actually happen? It did!”
Basically, he purchased about $120 or so worth of BTC in a peer to peer deal. This person he purchased from appeared to be a trusted source and from his email chains, he was sent the wallet number but no secret pin (maybe). This was in Australia between 2011-2012.
Now, I’ve tried to help him search the secret pin in his emails and he is adamant of “let’s just email the guy!” - he checked the wallet and all of the money is still there. He kind of won’t listen to the prompts I keep telling him to search…
I just need to know - is this legitimate? If my brother did get a secret pin, how do they usually send it (in 2011-2012) and do you think he was scammed back then? I’ve seen the transaction history and he absolutely did transfer money to this guy. And from what I’ve seen, this guy did honest business regarding Bitcoin.
If this is real… his life is changed forever. But IS is actually real or this a long line of scams that have happened to multiple people?
