Totally agree. To add to this, one of the best “why bitcoin” books is “your money not your life”. Basically the origin book for the FIRE movement.

No one seems to recognize it as that, but there is literally a whole investment section where the author states that they don’t know what to recommend. TBills used to be the recommended savings instrument, but now you have to invest - at least you can invest in stocks that align with your personal ethos.

ChatGPT even told me “Earlier editions heavily promoted buying T-Bills yourself rather than through a broker, to reinforce the philosophy of direct, simple money management.”

I would love someone to interview Vicki Robin on a podcast about it.
