💯 You fucking nailed it!

Word!

I was just thinking about how many up there are to proud to do this. To proud to teach . Great take, American.

People need to learn how to spend, before they can learn how to save.

buy or found businesses and work as close to a sat standard as possible. lead by example, not lecturing

Pay yourself first! Difficult to do, but the only way out of the fiat hole.

Already... 🤷‍♂️

One bit equals 100 sats. 😉 #BasicMath

Victim mentality again dude. Take responsibility. It's holding you and 70% of Americans back.

Yes. We know you think the current system in place is fine and nobody is a victim of having their money stolen from them. Inflation and taxes don't effect peoples standards of living at all.... 🙃

That's what saving is!

Well... I didn't say that. And I don't think the current system is fine. Pointing out your flaws does not absolve outside forces of their flaws. It's simply a statement that you have a flaw holding you back. Refusal to take any responsibility yourself is precisely what's making your hole deeper. You're not even trying to counteract the flawed system. You're just drowning in it because of your apathy.

Its partly my fault for making stupid choices not being educated on money.... But today....What's the fucking point of working my ass off fighting back.....when next year I'll just have to work 4% harder to keep the same stuff? I'm fucking done. I'll work doordashing when I need to for housing, electric, food, etc....and enjoy the rest of my time with friends and family. Nobody has energy to swim forever. But have fun feeling like your getting somewhere while the same system your swimming in keeps expanding so you never reach the edge. 👍

The point is you should always work your ass off. Doesn't matter what the state of the world is. You don't understand that because you're lazy. And you'll be in debt forever until you can change that.

If maximizing my time spent with friends and family means I'm lazy, so be it.... I'll remember this when we take our 1st trip in the RV this spring/summer while your at work or hustling and yes.... ill be sure to tag you in a photo when I'm smoking a joint on the beach. ✌️

We create our own reality. If we don't think we can save money, we won't see opportunities to do so. If we can change our thinking, doors open. I agree it's difficult. Most people do live paycheck to paycheck, and debt is drowning everything around us. But the barrier to entry isn't $104k to buy a while Bitcoin, it's $1.00 that we don't have to spend today that we can send to Strike or the $100 that we won't need for a month that we can send to River. The objective is not to get 1.0 BTC, it's to get off zero, and build slowly over time. When we look back over the decade, the opportunity cost of not doing what we can is going to be very high. I'm trying to convince friends and family to get off zero. It's like screaming into a tornado.

70% live check to check in America and can't afford to save that $1 and let it sit without being short on other bills. Hence the term Check to Check

Working hard doens't mean never taking vacation... You seem to only deal in absolutes... You know working hard just means I can pay for bigger nicer vacations for my family. Working harder means I'm debt free, with a stack of Bitcoin, a house and 4 cars and my wife is retired at 30. She deosn't work a real job AT ALL now. We weren't given anything by anyone and I don't even have a degree, my wife does. Ya know, the one retiring... Oh and it's paid for too. Stop making excuses for the shitty parts of your life. Own it. You gotta take the bad with the good. You want to coast of vibes in good times and point the finger at "the system" in bad times. You absolutely can stack sats. Don't say you don't have the "money" to get into Bitcoin then brag about your RV vacation and smoking weed. You know what you could buy instead of weed? Bitcoin... What's funny is I smoke too... But I can afford to. I buy weed AFTER I buy Bitcoin. You do it before, then bitch about how you don't have "money" for Bitcoin and that it's for rich people.

More work in the present while I'm young and fit is maximizing my time with friends and family. Because when I'm older I won't be able to work as much. I'll need money (a proxy for time and labor) in the future to maximize my time with them. That my friend is time preference. You just have a high time preference. You are maximizing time with friends and family now without regard for what that means for your time with them in the future.

Tomorrow isn't promised. Do what you can while you can. Memories > Money

Yes. Can stack sats. But I'm not. And instead using the value to create memories now. I honestly believe bitcoin is going to be used against us in the future. The government doesn't back things that are good for we the people. At least not in my lifetime... Then i look how easily everyone got wild up over op return and sats or bits....right after government backing.....Proving its to easy to emotionally manipulate and divide bitcoiners..... Yeah. Not something I need to be a part of... Starting to see why North Korea uses XMR.
