Buying expensive watches means you’re short #Bitcoin in my book. They are nice though. If it makes you happy, it’s worth it I guess.
Do we got here Bitcoiners with a enthusiasm for a watches?
If so, what is your favorite watch that you’ve got?
On the photo is my youngest piece of collection.
Tissot Chronograph MotoGp special edition 2016. I bought them like 3 weeks ago on a grey market for a 50% of their price and ngl, can’t stop wearing them 😁

Bruh, I bought them from profit in Bitcoin.
Actually when btc pumped, i sold my % investment and still holding my Bitcoin.
I’m a Bitcoin maxi, but also I wanna life my life too.
You know, u never know when ripper will come for you 😗
This narrative of “ultra” maxi is what makes it hard for us bro.
Always if I want to discuss something about bitcoin with some dudes, they always told me in middle of the conversation that they met guy with that narrative.
Bitcoin is freaking awesome tool for individual growth, but how u want to growth in a world of fiat ?
If we want to grow, we need to play their game and make them lose 🎃
Playing their game as you call it is what us got here in the first place. I think we should actually stop playing their games in general to beat them.
Buying watches is a decent investment I believe because it’ll be worth probably as much fiat as it did yesterday - at least.
All I am saying is your Bitcoin would be worth much more in a near future. So I am all in for paying with Bitcoin, using it as a tool but at the same time I always make sure my stack is allways growing. When I spend some sats, I buy them back as soon as possible. That way I stimulate the need of vendors to accept it but at the same time I follow the Grisham’s law - and am hoarding the best money and basically getting rid of anything else.
Again. Not against spending/using #Bitcoin. I just think watches don’t make you “rich”. But if it makes you happy, we can’t argue about it. Emotions are valuable too. And you can’t put a price tag on them, so I am cool. 
Make sense actually 🤙🏼
Watches always fascinace me(specifically automatic movements) So i like to collect them, its like a hobby.
I got so satisfied when i do cleaning rountime of the inside of them.
Also someone have tattos with a meaning, i got a watches with a meanings for me.
This new one Tissot MotoGp that i bought from profit means to me that the life is like a race, someone wants to always win and as you said, you can’t put price tag on it.
I’m cool with you, I know what you mean, so I’m happy that i can still sit on my bitcoin and sometimes make yourself happy with some meaningful things to me 🤙🏼
the definition of a fetish is being emotionally attached to one thing that is a symbol of another thing.
I said "fetish":

I could say "surrogate" also, with the same meaning.
it's also the basis of most religions, worshipping symbols.
it's the very same thing at play when Pavlov's Dog salivates at the sound of a bell.
the thing and a symbol of the thing have become confused.
also, the word is not spelled correctly once, or the same way, in that entire image.

What that “play their game” means ?
Think about it, if I buy watches for a bitcoin then more watch dealers gonna be selling in bitcoin.
Capitalism=Market
Bitcoin=Market
Life time hodl without any sell(trade) doesn’t make sense for me, sr.
Use fiat that you're going to spend or have to spend anyway, just offer it in BTC and hodl what you put into BTC. I'm all go for that. The fiat's going to go either way, on a new watch for example, may as well go as BTC.
Thanks for your opinion sirr 🤙🏼that’s what I’m doing rn.
But my friend is doing other strategy, he hold nonstop and don’t selling, he just takes a loans of fiat guaranteed by Bitcoin, and then he profit from Bitcoin and then he repays that loans and he have even more bitcoins after that loan.
But it’s too risky and sophisticated to me and also I hate loans 🤔 But when he showed me that strategy, I were surprised kinda.
You know, you don’t need sell your btc then, and still have some fun in normal world of fiat. But also you need to be skilled imo.
Yes, it's not a risk I would take, but if it works for him then good luck.
Im i shorting Bitcoin if i taking profit from it ? #plebchain #nostr #bitcoin
