Yo
i’ve been buying bitcoin and wearing t-shirts my entire life. when did it become larping?
True, you’re not larping. But how we present to the world sends a message, whether we are consciously aware of it or not.
There’s nothing casual about handling other people’s money, so once attire should reflect that sentiment.
Not everyone agrees with that view, but more should, in my opinion.
Naw. Authenticity is important, don’t like his honestly don’t work with him. It’s called a free market. Jack proves that value is value is value. No matter what he wears if his product is good, it will succeed.
That has absolutely nothing to do with what I said, but ok.
Jeans and t-shirts in professional settings are peak fiat. You can rationalize that only the final product matters, but let’s not kid ourselves into thinking the way people present themselves to the world has no effect on society. Is he going to wear a T-shirt and jeans to a wedding? A funeral? Of course not, because it would be disrespectful. The same used to apply to the workplace. That it doesn’t anymore is worse, not better.
Jeans and t-shirt in professionals setting is literally the opposite of fiat. We can agree to disagree, I personally believe that I can get scammed and conned by a man in a suit so I’m more focused on an authenticity and results. Jack admitted that he doesn’t like suits, if I need a suit to make me feel like he’s legit that is okay, but I personally know it doesn’t guarantee anything. His business is successful and he is a reason I’ve even made it to this side of the hard money conversation.
I think for his own businesses and image that’s what we are talking about, his being his self and I like that.
I have no interest in continuing to believe the things I was taught growing up. Suit is more trust worthy and proper and I man in a t-shirt isn’t.
If Jack produces value, he can start wearing no shirt(half kidding).
But I’m also serious.I messaged him publicly about a feature I want in his company and he said “ good idea, I’ll reply to the team”.
I don’t want Jack to stop being him, I want more of that. Don’t change for our comfort like the value prove itself.
Anyway, this is a long way of saying I believe in a natural free market. Be well brother
Also you can be authentic and look your best.
Personally when I watch Jack it never occurs to me what he’s wearing, I’m usually focused on what he’s saying.
But hey I’m trying to get out of that fiat mindset of brushing off people who don’t assimilate with traditional standards, if you prefer him to make an effort to fit in I can respect that. I don’t want that though.
Behavior is dictated by personality and environment.
