Most people probably own almost nothing: car, house, education, all on credit.

They have all their money in the bank (which doesn't even have the money!), and trust the bank will give them what they're owed.

If the bank runs out of money or decides to withhold their money, everything comes crashing down: they can't make the payments on the rest that they don't even own, so they lose their house, car, etc., and may even go to prison.

To me, this is far more terrifying than crypto's volatility.

Everything I have, I own completely. It's fully in my control to do with as I see fit at any moment.

I own everything and am happy.
