When we consider Thriving over the long view, we need to consider how energy is stewarded. Our "pay masters" have manipulated people into thinking that if your income is 5.5x what it was, you're "earning more." But measured in ribeye steaks or fractions of a median home in your zip? Not so. For Thriving I recommend learning and also using Bitcoin as one of your units of account. If you don't know what that means... excellent! You'll feel so much more empowered when you DO understand!
