Would you take $1,000/week for life… or $1M upfront today?
One of those choices turns a lottery win into generational wealth. The other guarantees mediocrity.
👉 Full breakdown in my latest FIRE BTC post: 
😔 The Most Depressing Lottery Win Ever
FIRE BTC #49 – The state of financial education is rekt
One thing I’ve found difficult with FIRE is learning how to spend the value I’ve saved.
You delay gratification for so long, then feel uneasy and nervous about spending it down.
Spending is a muscle that must be built, just like saving.
The historical 4-year cycle pattern is nearing its end date.
Will history repeat, or is the 4-year cycle dead?
Bitcoin surpassing $240k in Q4 would put the diminishing returns narrative to bed and keep the cycle alive.
From the recent @_Checkɱate 🔑⚡🌋☢️🛢️ report with Unchained:

FIRE folks pretend to be investors lol
“You can’t live in a bitcoin”
No shit! What the hell does that have to do with saving for the long-term???
Rally, Chop, Rally, Chop, Rally, Chop...

We don’t need more houses.
We need to stop encouraging houses to be used as financial assets.
The money is broken.
Fix the money, fix the world.
Diversification is a big word that means less bitcoin.
Sell your real estate for bitcoin!
No more
- leaky roofs
- annoying tenants
- clogged toilets
…all while still underperforming 🫠
Trillions of dollars of wealth will transfer from the Baby Boomers to younger generations.
They are digitally native and much more likely to find bitcoin valuable.
There has been a lot of chop and basing higher for bitcoin in 2025.
Don't forget: this thing can move VERY QUICKLY when it breaks free.
Cash on the sideline is risky.
Have you stacked hard enough to feel comfortable when bitcoin makes a new all time high?
Remember when they lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and then started two 20-year wars?
Good morning. Bitcoin will be just fine.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
If we move into a regime of explicit yield curve control, you are definitely going to want to have a mortgage on your home.
Peace of mind with rapidly debasing debt.
Imagine holding 40% of your portfolio in bonds ☠️🪦
I’ve had a few podcast conversations recently where I dig into the pursuit of financial independence with bitcoin.

The real “marshmallow test” today is for adults deciding between instant consumption in fiat or delayed gratification in bitcoin.
