Childhood me: "Once I become an adult, I'm gonna manage my finances like a pro. No impulse buys, only smart moves."

Adult me now: *watches portfolio swing 40% on some random Tuesday, buys the dip anyway, checks phone 47 times a day, tries to explain why this specific altcoin is "different", opens position sizes way bigger than planned, convinces myself that FOMO is actually just due diligence*

Yeah... turns out adulting and money don't mix the way 10-year-old me thought.
