I’m 23 years old and a recent first-gen college grad.

I did everything they told me would lead to success, but the promises feel hollow.

Then I learned the system I was handed is incredibly broken. And it started long before I was born.

In 1971, they untethered the dollar from gold…and untethered our future with it.

Since then, the fallout has been devastating:

- wages stagnated

- debt exploded

- both parents work

- anxiety became normal

- and our time is stolen.

But we weren’t just born into a rigged system. We were trained to never question it.

Money got weaker, control got stronger.

What they call normal is engineered dependence.

Fake money = fake freedom

Bitcoin is the exit.

This isn’t just history. It’s the inheritance I’m choosing to break.

Solid discovery and congratulations on graduating whilst maintaining your ability to think for yourself!

I felt a similar way during my time in academia. The rules are arbitrary and absurd, the information carries a vague sentiment of natural authority, bit none of the substance behind it. Professors and beauracrats were idolized. I felt like my life was governed by a system that saw me as a replaceable identification number.

I learned about Monero and understood i can trust no central authority.
