I was waiting for the scam-coin pitch at the end of this non sequitur, but it didn't come. Expectations exceeded. I've never met a rich person who followed self-help book wisdom like in your post. They don't need to, society is set up to catch them and give them another shot. They have family connections to get out of trouble and land a better job. Rich parents know what irresponsible narcissists they have raised, that's why Trusts are a thing, and why Probate lawyers are never out of work. Self-help book wisdom is extremely, tediously middle-class. That's why it can work for poor people who stop being socially dependent on other poor people. Sometimes they even become middle-class. But here's the thing - bitcoin itself is tediously middle-class. No one in this thread asked for a self-help book blurb complete with eating ramen, because we're all tediously middle-class already.
