Seeing this "heartbreaking" topic, with tears in my eyes, I quietly flipped through "Who is the top earner this round in the crypto cycle?" again. Learning daily from @yuyue_chris @KuiGas @allinweb6 about how they make millions in their respective fields.🙂

Having been in the crypto space for a long time, sometimes you lose perspective on money.
Seeing claims that anyone without 10 million in assets before the age of 35 is a failure is truly outrageous. @liujiaolian's article offered some inspiration.
👀 Let's take an objective look at just how difficult it is to achieve A8 net worth.

🗺️ (1) From a Macro Perspective of Wealth Distribution
In China, the proportion of families with a net worth reaching A8 (i.e., 10 million yuan) is extremely small. According to relevant data estimates, only about 2 million households nationwide have a net worth of 10 million or more. Compared to the huge family base, this number is negligible. Roughly only 4 out of every 1,000 families reach the A8 threshold, making it a one-in-a-hundred, or even one-in-a-thousand achievement.

💰 (2) From the Perspective of Income Accumulation
For the vast majority of ordinary people who rely on wage income, achieving rapid wealth accumulation and reaching the A8 level is almost a pipe dream.

🧑🏻‍💼 "For example, let's take a relatively high-paying job. Suppose a professional's annual salary can reach 500,000 (which is already a very high income level in reality), but after deducting daily living costs, taxes, insurance, and other expenses, the actual money that can be saved each year is probably only around 300,000."

Even calculated under this ideal scenario, it would take more than 30 years to accumulate a net worth of 10 million.

Moreover, this is theoretical data that does not consider any unexpected situations, as well as the impact of currency devaluation and rising prices. But in real life, who can guarantee that they can maintain such a high income level for more than 30 years and continue to save without any accidents?

If it were placed on ordinary wage earners, whose annual salary may fluctuate between 100,000 and 200,000, then accumulating a net worth of 10 million is simply an unattainable dream, which may be difficult to achieve in a lifetime.

📈 (3) From an Investment Perspective

🐂 Although in a bull market, many people may obtain high returns through stock trading, and their assets will increase significantly. However, once the market reverses and enters a bear market, many investors may not only lose all the money they previously earned, but may even face serious losses of principal.
Even professional investors who have undergone professional training and have rich experience do not dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they can obtain stable and high returns in the investment market every year.

Not to mention the even more volatile crypto space.
Some project teams can attract a lot of funds with a gorgeous white paper and exaggerated publicity. By the time retail investors react, the project team has already run away with the money, leaving a mess behind. Even if you choose the right mainstream Cryptocurrency, you may return to square one overnight due to contract liquidation.
Even "veterans" who have been in the crypto space for many years often suffer setbacks in market fluctuations, let alone newcomers with a small amount of capital. For example, if you only enter the market with a principal of 100,000, even if you accurately capture a wave of 10x market conditions and your assets reach 1 million, you may return all your profits with just one wrong operation.
📈 To go from 100,000 to 10 million, you must not only overcome market fluctuations and avoid various pitfalls, but also ensure that every decision is correct. The difficulty is comparable to dancing ballet in a hail of bullets.

In summary, in a word, don't be anxious, stay on your own pace.
If money were so easy to make, then everyone would be rich, which is the same as no one being rich 😅
