Episode notes
Buying A House During A Bitcoin Drawdown
- Jake bought a house and committed to renovations without cash reserves and then experienced a ~50% BTC drawdown.
- He mixed investment and operational capital, forcing sales and severe stress when crypto value halved during renovation payments.
Use Multiple AI Agents To Break Emotional Loops
- Use AI as a practical problem solver to break emotional loops and build cashflow forecasts or action plans.
- Jake sent the same planning prompt to multiple AI agents, curated answers, and used ChatGPT to identify emotional bias and create concrete steps.
Drawdowns Reveal Allocation Fragility
- Big drawdowns expose weak liquidity and poor allocation even when you are unleveraged.
- Jake realized he optimized for maximum coin accumulation, not stability, and that lack of runway magnified the bear market pain.
