    Also, if you have some extra funds coming in every week through temporary income instead of your discretionary income, you can start investing in Bitcoin.

    The best way to invest in bitcoin is to always invest with our discretionary income, weather at some point in time we were able to get some extra funds added to our income, we still have to be able to sort out our expenses and other primary financial obligations first before investing in bitcoin. Discretionary income is not the same as buying strategies, (lump summing) although nothing stops an investor to decide to lump sum at some time during his accumulation of bitcoin depending on the cash flow or with the money they already have and also if additional money comes in, even at that instance, one must still be able to sort out his major primary financial obligations first, and then use the remaining money or money left with you (discretionary income) for bitcoin investment. I said this contrary to your statement above where you said “instead of discretionary income, you can start investing in bitcoin”. For me, such statement sound misleading and contradictory when it comes to bitcoin investment because from experience gathered, it’s widely believed and accepted that any investment done without our discretionary income is no longer an investment but a gamble. Investment in bitcoin should be done with our discretionary income, if we don’t invest with our discretionary income then we are only gambling and at such sooner or later, it’s only but a matter of time before the investor starts getting the results and pay the price of not investing with a discretionary income. Or are you trying to say that one should use money meant to settle other major financial obligations for investment purposes, such statement looks contradictory and misleading especially to the newbies.
    I agree with you because investing in Bitcoin requires discretionary income, where you can get high profits if you invest in Bitcoin and keep it for a long time because if you plan to invest in short term then you can lose because it may not work for you, but you can be aware enough to invest and start from the present where you can use the DCA strategy from your discretionary income because it works for all classes of people, again you may face a sudden danger think one of your family members gets sick where you may have to spend a lot of money to cure him and to meet that money requirement you may be forced to sell your long term Bitcoin so if you create an emergency fund for investing it will play a little bigger role for you later.
    For you to say that emergency fund play a little bigger role in Bitcoin investment sounds so misleading because newbies like you can think that emergency fund doesn't play an important role in Bitcoin investment, and they can decide to invest in Bitcoin without considering building an emergency fund that will come to their aid if they have unexpected problems. An emergency fund is the backbone of your Bitcoin investment, and it very important you build up your emergency fund as you are investing in Bitcoin because it is what will help you to solve your unexpected problem, and you won't think of selling your Bitcoin investment to solve your unexpected problem.
