Sorry - mistook your profile with another that liked the post and is in Ohio.

My cousin turned me onto books on eBay. I was stunned. At “Acceptable,” Extraordinary Delusions was the lowest condition of the 5 I bought (the others were all either “Good” or “Very Good”) and it’s much better than I expected. It’s well-read, but still fine. Plus, there’s a special joy in reading a nicely-used book - thinking about its history, the softness of the paper, the little imperfections and charming wear.

I’ll post about it once I crack it open. It may be a minute though because I’m currently working my way through the goliath that is Wind and Truth.

And I’ll look into Bernays. I’ve read Cialdini’s stuff on the psychology of influence, but it’s more modern and geared towards sales and marketing.

GM, plebs. PSA: buying used #books on eBay is a great way to save money (for more sats, duh). Got these 5 for ~$20. One shop had a buy 3 get 1 free sale and The Mandibles is (a hard cover in perfect condition) was only $6.30.

Thinking of picking up this exact same combo. How are you liking the soap? Notice a difference from regular body wash/soaps?

Looking for the way out.

Breaking habits that don’t bring me closer to God and to family and to personal sovereignty.

Things are changing fast and I’d like to change faster.

How are yall achieving freedom in life?

Dreaming of the day when I'll have a heated gym and dry sauna in my house, adding luxury and comfort to my daily routine.

Yes the bitcoin as a store of value argument is in my mind settled. It’s going to win and as u rightly point out it will eat into most assets.

My slight concern is the medium of exchange part. That has to and will come naturally as it becomes more widely accepted as a store of value (ie ppl will want to earn in it and others with naturally want to be paid in it). My concern is is that when that time comes governments will have siloed the KYC exchanges and made peer-peer very hard. So my slight concern is that the tech isn’t ready for peer-peer when the medium of exchange part comes but in reality it’s a small concern with the innovation happening now.

Either way you’re right the risk of losing my btc is greater than the possibility make a bit more.

I guess it ultimately comes down to “stay humble and stack sats”.

GM, Cato says, "where is my morning libations?"

You’re right. It’s just something I’m thinking about but I also need to be aware that my own risk appetite is high and I probably need to curb it. I put it out there to get opinions and I get the feeling opinion is that it’s risky.

Yes that would be more sensible but my day job is just too busy. Also there’s unfortunately an element of greed. A side hustle is not going to get me 20% more bitcoin. Ie Fiat you earn on a side hustle is going down faster than btc is going up. Probably won’t risk my btcs but I’m just wondering.
