Cheers! There is that rare feeling of optimism in my belly amidst all the doomery courtesy Nostr and Bitcoin. One feeling I've been wrestling with at this stage of my life is how the fiat treadmill has held me and so many of my peers back. For context I do relatively well given where I'm at however the possibility of being able to afford a home for me and my young family is so distant. The best example I often cite is that my wife's grandfather who held a modest job with the government was able to acquire and build a home for his family at 12X his monthly pay cheque. In nominal units my paycheck is exponentially higher than his ever was but the multiple of my paycheck to do what he did is unfathomable and unachievable. Hopefully bitcoin fixes this soon!! nostr:npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe just two of many who've helped me see the light. Now I focus on being productive and adding value to others and save in bitcoin. If the thesis plays out I'll be fine but I still worry for all those around me who just don't see it yet.
