Does anyone remember that game Drug Wars? I’m tempted to write a game with the same basic premise but instead of buying and selling drugs, you trade shitcoins.

I highly recommend getting into the habit of measuring your net worth on a monthly or quarterly basis... in both dollar (or your government fiat currency) AND #bitcoin terms.

It is quite enlightening, and will absolutely highlight the major differences between the two stores of value.

For example, over the past five years, the price of my house has increased (gotten more expensive) by 37%.

In bitcoin terms, the price of my house has decreased by a whopping 89% over the past five years. Meaning that it is 89% more affordable.

LESSON: Life gets more expensive the longer you save in dollars, while life gets more affordable the longer you save in bitcoin.

Truly, #Bitcoin is better money for a better world.

Looking forward to more Flirting with Bitcoin episodes. I have high hopes this year will be better than the last.

Christmas is coming early for the Lightning Node runners this year!

Growth Requires Change

--------------------------

You have two options: either you can adapt to the changes in society, or society can adjust to accommodate you.

Adults are supposed to change and adapt, as the surrounding environment is unpredictable and constantly shifting. This has been the practice of our ancestors for generations. It's only in the past century that there has been an increased expectation for society to conform to individual needs.

This shift has led many to feel entitled to permanence, to believe that their current state should remain unchanged indefinitely. The drive for personal growth and adaptation, the kind of entrepreneurial energy that thrives on change, is dwindling. In an unfortunate sense, people have become conservative, that is, resistant to change, focusing their efforts on preserving the status quo, even if it means forcing everything else to adjust.

This struggle is the conflict we see unfolding today. We often hear groups demanding others to change without considering the necessity of personal growth and adaptation. This is more than stagnation – it's a step backwards.
