GM peeps β˜•οΈ Why do you still have a fiat job?

I feel stuck in fiat for a few reasons

I would love to hear your thoughts

- Need to pay rent in fiat (biggest monthly expense)

- Don't want to pay capital gains taxes for converting BTC > fiat

- Still learning how to pay for things in BTC (plane tickets?)

- Still have a strong hodlr mentality

- Don't believe I can make a full-time income in BTC *yet*

For the last point, I am so hopeful and excited about the income models that are emerging on Nostr for those who make a living from sharing their learnings online. But I feel stuck on YouTube to reach non-Bitcoiners and to keep paying my rent in fiat - somewhat of a catch 22.

Can you relate to this?

I feel low vibe emotions about the situation (guilt, hypocrisy, some frustration) because I do not want to keep contributing to the matrix or GπŸ‘€gle

The guilt I feel also comes from knowing how important it is to embody the world I want to see. My not embodying a Bitcoin Standard is just delaying the manifestation of that world!!

The end game is also so clear to me! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ Bitcoin is the transition system to a world without money. I'm so excited about that! But I also still need to function in the 3D world right now - and pay rent each month! 🀌🏼 πŸ˜…

I feel stuck in this cycle and I know it will only keep getting worse as fiat inflates to infinity. I am also aware that this is a journey, and I do not need to do it all at once πŸ™πŸΌ

So, what are your thoughts friens? 🧑

Maybe you can see something I do not?

Have you gotten out of a similar cycle?

Thank you πŸ™πŸΌ 🧑 ✨

Same. As much as I want to exit fiat completely we still practically need some fiat things. Not until there are more El Salvadors can we live our true selves. It's still somewhat of a compromise each day and doesn't sit well.
