How do you tell folks who can barely afford to save to consider Bitcoin? I usually stick to recommending them to learn about it rather than to buy it.

And I prefer explaining to them the vicious cycle of socialist fiscal policies since and expansionary monetary policies since we got independence patiently untill it eventually clicks for them.

I start with basics, I mean if people don’t what money is then it’s a lost cause, so I talk about the origins of money. And once it clicks in, people usually see what is the difference between the current money, its flaws and the alternative that is bitcoin which is sound money.

Of course you have to talk about debasement by the banks and inflation.

I’ve not delved a lot into socialist economic policies, I’ve been reading about them recently as I sometimes lock heads with desi comrades about why sound money can fix a lot of issues we currently have.
