Coincidence, but true!
2015: spent 0.13 BTC to pay for a domain name (~$10).
2017: spent 0.13 BTC to pay for a Trezor (~$100).
2019: spent 0.13 BTC to pay for a mobile phone (~$900).
All of the above items are now worth ~$13,000.
It just shows how fast and how much BTC has appreciated in value.
It's OK to shave off small fractions of profit to have some fun (YOLO), but know that the items you buy will soon be the most expensive you'll ever purchase. Guaranteed.
Sanity advice:
Sell profit fractions for fun.
Keep cold storage cold!

I have gotten less and less concerned about spending any of my cornz.
From my perspective they have multiplied (and compounded) so much that shaving off some cornz along the way, generally is not even hardly anything as compared with what I paid for them.
Sure, yeah, I spend my fiat first, but still, if you think about in 2015 when I had an extra $100 come in, and then I frequently decide to break that amount into half, and so in the $100 example, that would mean that $50 would go to buy BTC, which would mean 0.2BTC. Yeah, I was a bit upset because I did not have enough to buy a whole BTC, but I had that kind of situation come up several times in 2015, so several times did add up to several BTC, and these days, guys consider it a fantasy to merely get to 1 whole BTC, and it can take a long time to merely spend 0.2 BTC (my $50 from 2015).
I am not claiming that I am Mr. Money-bags, but spending my $50 that had been stored in BTC can frequently take me a couple of months to accomplish... I mean even if I feel like I want to or need to.
Some of us may well need to develop a more loosey goosey approach to spending more... just for shits.
Yeah, me too, in a way ("have gotten less and less concerned about spending any of my cornz")... I guess a long-time coiner learns to live with the fact that spending even tiny fractions of corn at any time will inevitably result in the items purchased quickly losing their value with respect to the spent corn's purchasing power in the coming years. The more BTC one has, and the cheaper they were acquired, the less concerned they may be about this, and vice versa. So, yes, having reached fuck-you status (18.53 BTC), it could make sense to spend 0.02 BTC on an iPad Pro, when you know that you spent $4 for the 0.02 BTC back in 2015, and you also know that in a couple of years you could be having a $10,000 tablet in your bag, but at the same time your stash will be worth $10M.
Another thing is that I have been monitoring what I consider to be entry level fuck you status for more than a year and some of my ideas have changed in recent times, but really I have become amazing that almost every single day when I go to look at entry-level fuck you status, in recent times, it has been coming down by between 0.01 and 0.02 BTC every single day...
From my point of view,
right now bare basic default entry-level fuck you status is 18.53 BTC. Horey sheit.. That is amazing..
I'm pretty sure I have visited your
JJG Sustainable Bitcoin Withdrawal Strategy page before, but, somehow, I didn't really get to play with it much at that time. It looks like a great interactive BTC management tool. How did I miss this? Bookmarked, thanks!
