Chris is a member of the Liquid Loans community, and he recently sat down with PulseChain expert WaLLrus to open his first Vault.



While he knew about Liquid Loans for close to a year, he took his sweet time before getting started.



As a result, Chris missed out on thousands of dollars that he could have earned with surprisingly little effort.



Considering how hard we all work for our money, missing out on easy cash is not a mistake that’s fun to make.



Here's how Chris finally started getting serious about building passive income.



This article is part of the Chain Reactions series: expert opinions on everything blockchain and crypto.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">5 Reasons He Waited So Long to Open a Vault</h2>



The conversation between WaLLrus and Chris was part of a video created for the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@LiquidLoans">Liquid Loans YouTube channel</a>. It was designed for anyone to follow along with.



EMBED: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1PhkFZ3eiE">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1PhkFZ3eiE</a>



Over the course of the video, Chris learnt how to finally get off his ass and open a Vault.&nbsp;



And, as we hear from most LL users, it was way easier than he thought!



In less than half an hour, Chris went from being a passive observer to being someone who is earning passive yield on his PLS.



Which just leaves one question: why did he wait so long?



Well, users who miss out on yield by putting off opening their Vaults usually attribute it to some combination of these 5 reasons:



<h5 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">1. “I’m somewhat new to DeFi”</h5>



You may know more about crypto than the average person, but still shy away from using DeFi protocols.



That’s actually very common.



Many people are paralyzed by the idea of getting started, but knowing your limitations should never stop you from growing.



If there are things you don’t know about DeFi...that’s great! You have the opportunity to become a pro, and it’s never been easier.&nbsp;



For instance, this walkthrough makes it mind numbingly easy to mint USDL for the very first time.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">2. “I thought it would be difficult”</h5>



We've all heard that DeFi projects are far from user-friendly.



That alone is enough to lock many people out of earning financial rewards.



 But LL is the exception; it was designed to be simple enough for anyone to use.



As you can see for yourself in the video, opening a Vault is incredibly easy. It only really takes a few minutes.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">3. “I was worried I didn’t have enough starting money”</h5>



LL isn't a system that's designed just to make the rich richer. It's designed to create a playing field where anyone can start earning.



Through the LL DApp, even minting a modest amount of USDL can be a great way to get some extra change in your pocket.



In the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGD9on5QKZ4&amp;pp=ygUTbGlxdWlkIGxvYW5zIHBhcnQgMg%3D%3D">second part</a> of the walkthrough Chirs featured in, he was so impressed by his earnings—even though he didn't start with a huge wad in savings.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">4. “I was skittish about redemptions”</h5>



When some people hear about redemptions, they mistakenly believe that they might lose their capital if they don’t do everything perfectly when setting up their Vault.



The big mistake here is thinking that redemptions and liquidations are the same thing, and that people should live in fear of this scenario unfolding.



In reality, <a href="https://www.thecoinzone.com/liquidloans/debt-in-front">redemptions can now be easily avoided</a> and are <a href="https://www.thecoinzone.com/liquidloans/what-happens-if-my-vault-gets-redeemed-against">rarely costly</a>. In fact, by not opening a Vault, users like Chris miss out on more PLS than they would have lost even if they did get redeemed against.&nbsp;



How’s that for irony?



<h5 class="wp-block-heading tablecontent">5. “I have so much else going on”</h5>



Most of us intend to do so many things that we never actually get around to doing.



I know that I'm constantly busy, distracted, dealing with issues, tired, and low on time.&nbsp;



That’s probably true for you as well.



And that might not give you much opportunity to open a Vault, despite how easy it actually is.



In Chris’ case, he was also worried about having to constantly monitor and manage his Vault. He&nbsp; assumed that would take a lot of time that he simply don’t have.&nbsp;

As was the case with Chris’ experience, free time isn’t just going to fall into our laps.



It requires a small, conscious effort.&nbsp;

Not everyone will have the same perspective as me, but I hope I’ve helped the other Chris’ of the world see how important it can be to prioritize our futures.
