You're making unwarranted assumptions about how many Bitcoins I own.
Anyway, it's a matter of time preference and planning.
If I would have chosen exactly 1 year ago to go all-in Bitcoin, it would have made no difference.
Suppose for the same of argument that it's 2013, my income is not pegged to bitcoin, I get paid in btc, and that I can save 50% of my earnings.
Jump forward today and using bitcoin as my unit of account, what's happened since then equivalent to a 3x pay raise, because the number of bitcoins I'd be adding to my savings now would be triple what I was adding a year ago.

Unless, of course, one use real buying power as a measure of value. Like in the real world.
