I give up . They just don’t get it and never will. They think I’m trying to sell them on a dream. They don’t know I want them to be extremely wealthy along side me . Screw it I’ll just focus on getting more bitcoin for me and my future children.

kitty-cri do not speak to me and my future extremely wealthy son ever again

    THAT’S THE FUCKING DREAM, BAZINGA BRAIN guts-rage

    Screw it I’ll just focus on getting more bitcoin for me and my future children.

    I sincerely hope that that libertarian creep remains nowhere closer to children than the word “screw” is to the word “children” in that sentence. guts-pain

    The comments are full of similarly divorce-brained individuals.

    They cannot and fair enough too because they are not taught this stuff in school and unless you are super into this stuff or somehow otherwise exposed, fiat systems are a bit tricky to explain, I can’t think off too many suitable analogies that I can use to quickly make someone get it, and then you get into the reserve dollar and international trading and whether a country owes its liabilities in its own currency or USD, it’s tricky esp when people think their money is still backed by something ‘hard’. But I am an optimist and I think citizens of developed economies will slowly get there once exposed to enough simple and concise explanations. Citizens of developing nations get it much more quickly. It is an amazing thing though, how people have been conditioned to ‘question everything’ but there are a few things that people never seem to question, like how money works. Or perhaps it’s that people think they know, when really they don’t, a bit like that quote at the start of the big short.

    I told my dad about inflation and his response was “I shouldn’t think like that” . I’m like dude that’s the reason you’re poor

    I’ve been debating university trained economists and self styled experts on the merits of Bitcoin since 2015. They’ve been laughing at me the whole time lol. “It’ll never work, the banks will shut it down, the government will kill it, it’s using too much power, deflation is always bad the economy will collapse, it’s just a bubble” The hardest people to reach are the most educated.

    stay humble stack sats…

    those people will come to you one day

    i stopped talking because I dont want people asking me for handouts

    He’s gotten his grandma involved in this shit…

    My grandma is a whole coiner. She owns a buisness so she kinda likes investing money so she was very open to hearing me out. It’s been going really well for her too might I add.
