Canada is in a challenging situation. Many Canadian provinces are extremely isolated and gradually declining. Several generations in small towns have not had children, and those who did often saw their kids move to major cities. The government has been addressing population decline by encouraging mass immigration, but the majority of immigrants settle in the major cities. Canada only has about five major cities, leaving the rest of the country dotted with small towns.
Young Canadians in these small towns often lack financial resources, while new immigrants also struggle financially. Meanwhile, the older generation, who typically have more money, are moving out of big cities into smaller towns due to lower living costs. However, being retired, they are not interested in starting businesses.
This creates a unique opportunity for those with the resources to start a business in a small town. The older generation has disposable income and often seeks social interaction, particularly at places like restaurants. A well-positioned entrepreneur could capitalize on this demand, especially in towns with little to no competition.
Economically, we may be nearing a "crossover point" where individuals reliant on fiat systems can no longer access loans, while Bitcoiners, having saved in a harder asset, begin to hold significant economic power. This "crossover point" represents the moment when Bitcoiners’ economic influence surpasses that of fiat-dependent individuals and businesses, marking a transition in economic dominance.
For aspiring entrepreneurs, this could be an ideal time to start a business. Small-town real estate is affordable, reducing the financial risk and allowing room for learning and mistakes without the fear of bankruptcy.
You're right. Customers will likely seek fresher options, and I should added this to my personal goal of mastering fresher, higher-quality pizza—offering a service that caters to unmet demand while honing my skills over time.
I suspect many Bitcoiners are thinking of capitalizing on this "crossover" point as we get close to it.
