Do you know if he’s paycheck to paycheck?
About two weeks ago I posted about a friend who started to DCA $5 a day. My friend was inspired by the Jack Spirko post and how $5 a day can change your life.
My friend likes Andrew Tate and shared this video specifically about being a wage slave. So I asked how the DCA was going and my friend said it’s not.. LOL.
Why did you stop? “Because I can’t afford it right now.” You can’t afford $5 a day?? Normies can’t afford fucking $5 a day?
The irony is that Andrew Tate is literally talking about people like my friend who will be a wage slave forever 🤦♂️

She goes out to eat everyday
NGMI
That's something that bothers me about normies... I get it, that it's hard and the system is stacked against you. At the same time, people need to stop being victims.
I remember when my partner and I started our company. We would travel hours to break even, just to grow our client base. I was making approximately $400 CAD a month, for the first year. My wife was in nursing school at the time. We would eat eggs all day everyday, because that's all we could afford and didnt want to eat garbage for cheap.
The path to reach escape velocity out of the system was fucking brutal... I wish there was an easier way. I'm not the type of person who wants others behind me to have it harder than I did. I want it to be easier for them, which is partly why I'm a Bitcoiner. However, the reality is, that getting out of the system is fucking hard.
People can either bitch about it and feel bad about themselves, or they can deal with it.
truth 👊
It is hard but it’s fucking doable. $5 a day to financial freedom is about as easy as it can get. Like are you kidding me? What would our ancestors think if that’s all it took? Lmao. She has an average job so she shouldn’t feel entitled to do the things that she does. Spending more than you earn is crazy. I’m starting to believe that being poor is a mindset.
Yes, being poor is certainly a mindset, excepting people experiencing famine, disease, war, etc.
Those are real poor people. The rest are poor by choice maybe?
That's another way to say it, yep!
On second thought, maybe not exactly. I think most people are poor by *design*, think Matrix or social construct by elitists. Like, our education, culture, etc impregnate a poor mindset in us.
But it is possible to shift the mindset, which leads to preparation, then luck happens which changes the circumstance (necessarily in that order).
I dunno, just thoughts. Whadda you think?
Maybe not design but poor by programming. And few people break out of it. Sad.
Gotcha.
I'll stick with design because I think fiat money is designed to extract wealth from the poor and route it to the pockets of the rich. I think society is largely designed around monetary value, which would explain why schools don't teach about finances, debt, inflation, taxation, gold, Bitcoin, Austrian economics, etc.
We're close enough though. 🙂🤝
That's at least $12 cuck bucks per day. My brother has basically eaten a cheeseburger and fries every day for 20 years.
After a long enough time-span, It will effect her health too.
It is already hurting her health. She’s gotten chubby. I remember telling her about how bad seed oils were and she would agree, then order McDonald’s through DoorDash late at night and say “but I’m hungry and need to eat something.”
Chubby is just the beginning. She's killing herself one day at a time. She should check her bloodwork and expect type 2 diabetes, high blood-pressure, and a whole lot more.
Or...She can stop eating fries and stack sats.
I know many sat stackers don't like vegtables, but spinach and olive oil + balsamic vinegar is better than french fries in my opinion.
Spinach is pretty bad, it’s full of oxalates lol. But the rest of what you’re saying is stuff that she will ignore so it would be a waste of time. She bought $50 worth of Bitcoin like 2-3 years ago and it’s gone up 4x in value. She sees herself getting fat. She’s a woman so there’s no way it has snuck up on her. And she remembers everything I said about seed oils. She doesn’t care.
