My dad is a year out of retirement, he lost everything in the 2008 market crash, a boomer, resistant to change, and was extremely cautious and skeptical for years. This year after years of trying to get him to go down the #bitcoin  rabbit hole I finally got him a few months back. He’s been studying bitcoin the last few months, and confidently going to liquidate his retirement to buy some corn.

I asked nostr:npub1alexvw0vn2qf3dm3pyppuf3x6tryqtcjjxc08kp7rygu7ayu4mcs0levkz specifically if he would talk to my dad as I knew my dad would feel more confident with a fellow veteran.

Just got this text. Looks like you did amazing, Alex!! Thank you for helping me educate my dad, and for eliminating his fears around liquidating his retirement and going all in on Bitcoin. 🙏🏼🧡🔥

Bitcoin is not for everyone or everyone would already have it.

He’s aware of all of this. He’s holding
