I promised that I would talk about the fiat ponzi, learning ponzi, the matrix, so I will give it a shot. It may be incomplete, but it's my thoughts and feelings on the matter. So, we are born at a point in space and time, by two people into a certain environment. Of course, this is out of the baby's control. This largely determines the baby's fate. Look at any two parents, the child, and the majority of the time they turn out the same because of the same values, beliefs, skills, knowledge, etc. The smart, wealthy parents leverage what they have to get their child the best opportunities, education (paid off), house, hand off a business, whatever for that time. In short, the child can skip the worst of the fiat ponzi scheme and live life. Some children get lucky for the time they are born in. We start at education. Now, what is the purpose of the k-12 and college education system? Is it to actually educate? Is it to keep people in line? Is it to brainwash and indoctrinate? Is it to create wage slaves? Is it to turn people to a certain religion or political party? Is it to have people on the bottom to fuel the fiat ponzi? Is it to keep people out of trouble or put people into trouble? Is it to keep people smart and healthy or stupid and unhealthy? Is it meant to keep the elites the elite and the poor as poor? These are serious questions which must be thought about, and I don't ask those lightly. You only ask these questions once you're viewing the Matrix and put thought into every possibility, whether something is intentional or accidental. Okay, you've devoted a good 12 years of your life here -- choice or not, well spent or not? Have you used any of the information from it? Do you remember any of your teachers? Do you remember the subjects and what you learned from it? How have those thousands of homework assignments, essays, and tests prepared you for life? Now your grades and what you want to do in life and what you can afford decide what school you go to and your fate. After this point, since they pushed college so hard and deemed it mandatory, what school you go to and what major you pick decides the next part of your fate. Usually, most people do not have control of their lives from 0 to say about age 25 or 30. After this, you have more autonomy and independence to choose your paths forward. Choices here matter. Ask the same questions about college. Is the purpose of college to educate or enslave someone to a certain work force? Is a student loan something that enables someone to go to college or something that is meant to be a wage slavery instrument? The grades don't even matter unless you choose to go to another college or the company even cares about your grades. Here's the thing. What if the entire time you were alive, in k-12, and in college, your country was printing money, you held no assets or stocks, your family held no assets or stocks? The prices of everything... education, houses, cars, food, planes and yachts and fancy toys (lol), have gone up while you were learning and in a part time job to try and pay for college (lol). You started at level 1 at a video game while some others started at say level 50. Don't forget the interest of loans for cars, student loans, houses, credit cards, etc. If you are at the bottom, trying to find a paying job and one you can say maybe even tolerate, this part in one's life can be expensive and hellish. Especially if you are shipped off to soul sucking jobs. After all this education, how smart and healthy do most of these people end up? They are paying for a car to go to their job to pay for everything else and they are stuck in a mind-numbing loop, an endless grind. These people are conditioned and trained to sacrifice their self worth, health, family, anything, for their job. The thing you gotta do at that job is super important, after all. Don't worry, they will give you a retirement plan that doesn't keep up with inflation, maybe yields 5 or 10 percent a year Maybe they crushed your self worth and made you think you're not capable of any other opportunities. Maybe you don't even think you're worth that opportunity. If you are born at the bottom, do you see how someone is stuck in the fiat ponzi, the learning ponzi, the matrix? Maybe you make a bit of extra money, so you feel good about yourself. "Finally, I'm getting somewhere," you think. But guess what? There are plenty of people who made A LOT more. And maybe you are in the wrong assets and there is more money printing. Suddenly, houses and cars and everything else is more expensive. Oops. Looks like you are stuck again. Time to work some more!!! You are trading your YOUTH, some of your life and energy with your skills and knowledge, for some money. Before you know it, the years have passed. What happened? You know something is wrong. But you can't pinpoint what. Did your family sell you off to wage slavery through the education system? Did you sell yourself to wage slavery for a car or something else? Did you desperately need a cheap education but didn't get it? What the hell happened?!? You're in a daze and aren't sure what's going on. Your health is declining but you now have to spend so much time at the gym, health insurance and appointments are so expensive. Didn't school stress how important health is? Did work turn your mind and body unhealthy? What the hell happened?!? Was your only crime being born into a lazy, stupid, and poor family? You learned so much... why wasn't it enough? Why didn't they teach about inflation, investing, finance? Aren't you capable of more than what you are now? But it's so expensive to try and be capable of more. It's so expensive to live and be alive. If you have a kid, or a few, even more so, and they get to go through what you went through now. Maybe you didn't want to have a kid because you didn't want him or her to suffer and because you couldn't afford it. Dang, life got hard. The correct asset...or perfect money or a perfect store of value, say, Bitcoin, is your water in the desert to survive. You NEED it because you desperately need a drink. You desperately want to live. You are asked by something in the void, "Tell me, do you want to live? Do you want to live life? You were born and you are alive, but you are somehow not alive and not living. Do you really want to live?" Somewhere deep in your soul cries out... "I WANT TO LIVE!!!" Maybe you are someone who can do a crazy amount of good with more money. Maybe you have knowledge and skills that aren't unlocked. Maybe you don't. Maybe the person becomes a lazy bum with a lot of money, idk. Money or a lack of only enhances what kind of person you are. Maybe you start a business that's not good for people. Maybe you start a business that's good for people. This is just a portion of the fiat ponzi scheme, the learning ponzi scheme, and the matrix. If you've made it to this point, congrats, your mind has been opened and you've considered things that most people haven't considered. Fiat is a ponzi scheme. Education is a ponzi scheme. Work and life and the matrix is a ponzi scheme. Why didn't they teach you skills to build something, to make money on your own? Why didn't they teach you how to invest? Is everything in life to help improve life or control people? Is education to free people or control people? Is work to free people or control people? Is fiat to free people or control people? Is a car to free people or control people? Is the Internet to free people or control people? Is the algorithm to free people or control people? Is speech to free people or control people? Now, go out and live. image
