Men are designed to shoulder responsibility. It is what makes us respected and loved. Attempting to do this without savings behind you brings an unsustainable level of stress and suffering.
My life took many hard turns and I spent a lot of time living at home. But I used that time to save. It gave me a base, some confidence and changed the terms on which I interacted with the world. When I eventually met my wife, I could buy a fridge and pay the rental deposit. My wife knows I provided that fridge, I achieved that fridge through hard work, that fridge is a win.
When you have a financial buffer you make better decisions, they compound over time. It can be 3 months, 9 months, or 3 years of expenses. Whatever you need to start living your authentic self by whatever means you have available.
Savings keep the darkness away just long enough to find the light.

Beef & Bitcoin. Fuck the state.
The top of the Bart is 90K
WW3 but only on weekends because muh markets
Seems like Saylor has found a pretty reliable way to get people to give him money to buy Bitcoin. Frankly, I respect the hustle. You're never going to escape paper bitcoin and if it wasn't for his paper buying we'd probably be at 20K. I'm thinking now, if all the other billionaires are going to just sit and watch him do this. Some competition for sats would get interesting fast.
Can't break 69K. We're getting fwckin max matrix memed here.
First client has cancelled, 2K poof. My business has nothing to do with the middle east but does require a decent investment so people are just waiting. Extrapolate across the economy with oil over 100$, just another way they're fucking us in the ass.
Words I've muted. Eth, Ethereum, Dalio.
Extended family member died cutting his hedge. Suffered a blood clot after the vax, never been the same since. The only tool we can defund these pedos with nobody gives a fuck about. Quite the pickle we're in.
I want to live somewhere safe, with functional healthcare, keeping more than half of what I earn and be able to drive whatever car I want. Apparently that's asking a lot.
How da fwck are you meant to navigate this
Trump asking God to bless his war for Israel has to be one of the lowest moments I've ever witnessed.
Yet another US President standing at a podium telling the world why they need to bomb the middle east. The Trump shitcoin was bad but this is probably even worse.
Israel is getting on my tits.
If you haven't built an agent to monitor government overreach are you even a bitcoiner
Let me take a wild stab in the dark, we all loved this film right?

The natural state of the free market is deflation and this is fundamentally incompatible with a debt based system.
The rest is noise.
