That money Millennials have been saving for the 20% house deposit should all be going into Bitcoin.

If the average worker managed to save even 5% per year and put that all into Bitcoin instead of some long-term interest bearing account, they would actually have wealth.

Some maths:

- Average weekly salary in Australia in 2018 = $1,586 (assuming no pay rises)

- After tax they take home = $1,030.40

- Saving 5% of that over 5 years is $13,311 (nowhere near enough for a 20% deposit)

- DCAed into Bitcoin over 5 years they have $58,923.21 of purchasing power

So to answer your question, you start ASAP.

You DCA a minimum in and as you understand the “self fulfilling prophecy” of Bitcoin and your conviction grows, you should up your investment as much as possible. Our average Millennial example above is up 342% in 5 years.

You keep doing this until your Bitcoin stack is enough for you to opt out of fiat slavery.

You don’t go and make yourself exit liquidity for a Boomer, you realise it’s better to pay off someone’s mortgage via rent than to take one on yourself because that 10BTC house today will be 1BTC in 5-10 years by which time you could buy it outright in cash, and in that time your stack has grown and the pool of capital for the housing Ponzi to sell into shrunk.

The more Millennials who do this, the sooner the beast is starved to death, the sooner you’re no longer an average normie on a hamster wheel constantly battling inflation.

Most people want an instant solution but Millennials would be smart to lower their time preference and grind into the new system, that’s where real freedom lies.

We are all focused on only inflation. Inflation, although a big part of the grift, is still a part of the problem. If we work for them we will still be fueling the beast for a much longer time. We will still be living in an inefficient system where 30-50% of the value is wasted away. You are paying capital gains whenever you offramp. You are still feeding the beast. And the beast will come for your Bitcoin.

Stacking sats is the bare minimum a person can do for himself. But we should not stop there. We should go further, find flaws in the system and build better systems.

What if you could stack twice the amount of sats if you didn't waste that money by paying for services you barely use? You buy Bitcoin early and you starve them faster.

I propose to fork out of their system and start building our own systems on the cyberspace. You then privately offramp whatever you need and you live in places that value your money for what it is, that is, money you earned for contributing to someone out there.

Again, you have no skills.

I don't remember why I follow you. You're boring me. If you troll one more time I'm simply muting you.

nostr:npub1hv64t0jlg94p0tpq6zc8mrc5kyfhzwwn8fxp6m45jwdn9pmfs53q0yrjjm joined nostr for "free speech" but when it arrived, he wasn't prepared

Would you fight for a spammer's free speech? You still have free speech on the platform. But you're a spammer to me. I don't know why you don't understand this subtle difference.

Also yes please mute me so I can ridicule you behind your back.
