I was in even earlier on $ETH and know what you mean. I was such a noob LOL.
I have limitations in my life now I never used to have, with the car running me over and the state burying my file and life due to my activism, from all clear sources.
Or I would be A LOT further ahead in all this.
I hear you. We went through some tough times too. We are bouncing back. My husband got in at $9.00 but had to sell off. He had over 400 bitcoins at what time. 🙃
