I wish I was good at math.

same.... but im broke as fuck. Did you buy into Bitcoin early?
Joseph Williams
No one does math in pen.
Jeremiah Rogers
yes

I paid full price ($680 with custom nib), I could have paid a little bit less for a used one but I am very paranoid about someone selling me a fake expensive pen. At this price is best to buy from reputable sellers even if you pay full price. I am not thinking of ever selling though, I legitimately enjoy writing with a fountain pen, is fun.
To be fair I am not going to a Ivy league university, and I consider myself in average compared to some of my peers (some already being picked up to work on research in the future and specialization, unlike me).
nope, came quite late to the party all things considered. The first pump that truly got me to take a serious look at crypto as a good investment was the ether climb from lowish 70s to 190+ (I got in at 89 dropped 300 and hodl'd all the way to $204) from I have been taking a more active approach.
I use them for writing. Specially long writing sessions. Also when you are preparing a formulate sheet is actually not a bad idea (since it forces you to be careful with what you are writing thus you pay more attention).

I only recently got into crypto and Ive been pretty shit at trading so far. Lots of shit calls but Im starting to trend upwards. Im terrible at not taking profits early enough.
I plan on rewarding myself with luxury watches, I love the engineering behind them autistically. All I have so far is a SARB033 because the movement at that price is unreal. and an Orient Ray because it was the best I could afford when I first got into them. You should look into watches, OP, you'd probably enjoy the engineering behind them. /g/ has watch generals that are quite nice too.

Nicholas Cox
ok man I take back what I said, thats crazy. If you spend any more of your crypto gains on more of them you are a retard.
Ayden Barnes
What's it like to write with this pen? Is it any different from a regular good quality fountain pen? I like pens too, never tried a Montblanc.
Joseph Jenkins
my car needs a new engine, and a heap of other shit i want to do want a new bike want a new computer
dont want to take money out of crypto. life kinda sucks now i cant enjoy my hobbies.
Grayson Wright
Yeah that's a waste of money you retard. Unless you're already wealthy you're compromising your future gains for a 700 dollar pen. Something that does exactly the same job as a 50 cent biro.
Alexander Gomez
i lose money trading crypto, listen to shit electronic music, sleep, read books and shitpost user. I have 0 social life and i am also a kissless virgin user.
Christian Phillips
Fortunately I actually have a good job so I can buy what I want without ruining my crypto gains.
Well within reason, I couldn't buy a house outright but I make a decent amount.
Camden Wilson
I know exactly what you mean with being terrible at taking profits. I still struggle with this since I like to think as a long term hodl'er, but I have discovered that in crypto is better to ride the waves and re-position than to leave money on the table because of believed hype. But I am sure you either will reach similar conclusions or sharpen your investment intuition to figure out when to get out. In either case I wish you luck broseph
>Luxury watches
Yeah that sounds interesting. Never wore any hand jewelry before to be honest. But I will look into it. Any cool/expensive watches that got you interested in watches to begin with?
I don't blow this kind of money every month, not even close. I only have 3 pens and my collection is very small (A lamy that I got for 40, a platinum 3776 that I got for 120 I think, and this Montblanc which most people that collect pens consider pretty high end and collection ending piece).
I don't even compulsively get pens for the sake of owning more, I legitimately use them unlike some collectors in the pen hobby. I have been eyeing this pen for quite a while and I finally had a good run (after the bloodbath that was the china fud) and I thought I get myself something nice that I would use for a very long time.
Julian Turner
youre meant to put that extra money into crypto every month dude
Julian Wright
Who the fuck uses pens anymore you autist
Asher Wright
literally anyone that doesnt spend every waking moment in front of a computer but if thats the case, why arent you keeping a physical diary of your holdings and trades?
Jose Flores
I own a cash for gold. I am not trying to teach a brain that is starting to feel less than youthful at 31 computer science. I buy watches, guns, rare antiquities and historical artifacts.
Zachary Hill
you can find absolutely great replicas for this kind of pen, also same for most popular luxury watches.
personally have >Audemars Piguet Rose gold 15400 >Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm >Panerai 111 classic
all super replicas pretty indistiguishible even after opening them up.
Jonathan Williams
I think to get into it you have to appreciate the engineering behind it. No electronic components (in automatics/hand wound watches), but they can do some amazing things in the form of "complications", such as day/date on the basic end, to a lot more in the higher end. youtube.com/watch?v=SGPjFFMD3c0 gives you a good idea of the engineering involved, though this is literally the highest end watch mechanically in the world.
I like my SARB033 because its a really high precision, nice looking movement on a clean watch for a really good price tag. But, find something that suits your personal tastes.
And dont pay for reps like because at that stage you're just buying prettied up chink-shit with a bigger price tag than the casio/aliexpress piece with the same components desu
mirin tastes though, royal oak is long term goal
William Cooper
Spend your hobby money on investments. A pen hobby is making the guy behind the counter rich.
Grayson Cox
I found a montblanc meisterstuck in a parking lot. feels good in my bum
Logan King
oh an you're a faggot, OP.
Aaron Myers
Montblanc sucks m8, get a new hobby
Robert Gonzalez
Writing with fountains pens is awesome but seriously, my Pilot was a fraction of the price and just as good if not fancy.
Charles Sanders
nodded my head as i read through his post, "yeah autist"
