Can you even "invest" with \$25 a week or is that cope

Serious question from someone with a very normal paycheck. I can probably spare about \$25 a week for bitcoin without making the rest of my budget ugly.

Part of me thinks consistency matters. Part of me thinks I'm just buying emotional participation trophies. How do you frame small buys mentally?

Small consistent beats grand plans that never happen.

You're building habit and exposure, not auditioning for billionaire speedrun.

Just don't neglect emergency savings for the sake of a good forum story.

People laugh at small numbers until they've done zero for six years.

\$25/week taught me discipline better than my random bigger buys ever did

'emotional participation trophies' made me laugh but yeah habit is probably the real point
