so high time preference vs low time preference relationships? 🤣

i can see the intersection of values and consequences. people tend to have a high time preference when pursuing a high paying career to attract that potential partner and in the process sacrifice low time preference values (humility, integrity, honesty).

maybe if we had money that didn’t devalue we wouldn’t have to chase high paying careers to impress that potential partner with a lavish and materialistic lifestyle.

with sound money we could pursue vocations that fulfilled us beyond income and materialism and that could also build our character and in turn meet someone who shared our low time preference values to build a sustainable and meaningful future together.

That was a great explanation, I was just wondering what a Bitcoin relationship would be like. But time preference ist a really good angle 👍

glad that helped. i mean there will always be broken people in any structure of relationships, but at least on a “bitcoin standard relationship” the right economic and emotional/psychological incentives are there so that both parties are aiming at the most long term and sustainable goal as a team.
