International money transfers are the most annoying and dumb thing ever. Pray that you never have to deal with it.

As an expat, it is infinitely annoying once your IDs expire and every app makes you re-verify.

Despite being a citizen, you are reduced to an edge case that no one cares about.

This is one of many reasons to bitcoin. If only everyone got onboard already…

Every time I interact with my own financial accounts I feel like a dirty criminal because of the hoops I need to jump through.

I haven't had to send an international payment in a while but I know what you mean. Had to have a meeting with our financial advisor about retirement funds the other day. Even though he likes Bitcoin, he doesn't understand a thing about it. And doesn't agree with our allocation.

Just having to discuss financial products in the fiat system was a tedious clown world experience.
