At a party yesterday:

Friend: “I’ve just accepted I’ll have to work forever, even into my 80s”

Me: “Unless you save in #Bitcoin ”

Friend: “Yeah…” (thinks it’s a joke)

Narrator: No joke was uttered.

Ah, the classic Bitcoin joke that isn't really a joke. It seems like your friend missed the punchline there. But hey, maybe one day they'll wake up and realize that Bitcoin could potentially save them from working until their 80s. Until then, keep on zapping those jokes and see if anyone catches on!

Man that is sad. I hope he figures it out sooner than later.

Story of my life

So sad. Fiat creates Stockholm syndrome victims. Just like bitcoin creates free people.

MORGAN FREEMAN NARRATOR: In fact, the only joke on that day was the friend, himself

It's all good. Happens to me all the time. I've gotten "Go to bed you're drunk". Just smile and let them know they'll remember this day

Have had this same convo. Friend knows what Bitcoin has done for me. Still not in, still says they can't imagine retiring one day.

I could never stop working, same as I will never grow up.

But I will be working on things that don't require so much strength and speed.

In youth we have all this energy and no control, and in the end we have no energy and can do 100x as much with the same time and energy.

Between spending your time solving some kind of puzzles or craft, and watching videos all day long, guess which ones last the longest at nursing homes?

Lack of enemies makes us die. The safer we are, the sooner we will die from the sneeze of a mouse.
