Generational wealth.

Bitcoiners talk about it often. Building citadels, starting a multi-generational legacy.

It sounds incredible on paper, but there are two questions I find myself asking when I think about this tooic:

Who would I be if I inherited wealth?

Who will my children become when they inherit what I leave for them?

Most of us didn't come from money. We have to hustle, and our struggles define us. Our willingness to work hard & smart, to do what needs to be done for the good of our families, is a common trait amongst bitcoiners. It's what we want to instill in our children.

This doesn't mean we throw our kids out in the wilderness and see if they survive, but we do have a responsibility to make sure they understand the struggle. That they know what it's like to be in the trenches of life. That they don't take for granted that which we climbed out of when we sought a better way via #Bitcoin.

This is also why it's incredibly important for us to take care of our health, because these parental responsibilities don't end when our kids turn 18. These life lessons take decades to learn, and we need to be there for our children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, should we be so lucky.

Your day will come. When it does, make sure everything you worked for is in good hands. 🧡

THIS INDUSTRY IS ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL.

THE TRUTH IS I HAVE BEEN BURNED OUT FOR AT LEAST THREE YEARS NOW BUT THE ONLY REAL OPTION IS TO PUSH FORWARD.

YOU EITHER STAY HUMBLE OR GET HUMBLED.

THIS GAME IS ONE OF SURVIVAL. PERSEVERANCE. RELENTLESS ENDURANCE.

MANDIBLES THEN BITCOIN STANDARD. WITH CHAOS COMES OPPORTUNITY.

STAY HUMBLE AND STACK SATS. LEARN HOW TO USE BITCOIN AND HOLD IT SECURELY YOURSELF. SIMPLE YET HARD.

ONWARD. FOREVER. 🫡

I THINK MY FAVORITE NOSTR POSTS ARE THOSE THAT CLAIM THAT NOSTR IS IRRELEVANT.

IF THAT WERE TRUE THEY WOULD NOT EXIST.

GOOD MORNING. 🫡

GOOD MORNING, STAY HUMBLE AND STACK SATS. 🫡

Each time I try low or no carbs, I get leg cramps within a few days and I'm generally low energy.

Do you get that too? And how do you deal with it?

Thanks.

The importance of proof of work in life.

The other day at a family meal a recent nutrition graduate (fiat education) was discussing my diet.

He was showing me his studies and I was showing him mine, evidently discrediting mine because I am not a nutritionist.

My closing argument was, I am more than twice as old as you, I have twice as much muscle mass as you, I can do 100 pull-ups, I can run for two hours straight, I can beat you at sprint at any distance, I have no cholesterol, no triglycerides, no sugar, my blood work is perfect.

If at my age you get to be like me, then I will believe your studies.

Studying is all very well, but what they teach at the university does not have to be the truth.

As a curiosity, his postulates were:

- Fasting is bad.

- Protein is bad.

- Carbohydrates are good.

- Fats and meat increase cholesterol.

My diet is based on:

- Fasting.

- Protein (fish, meat)

- Practically no carbohydrates

When I have increased the consumption of carbohydrates (I also do endurance sports) I have ended up with triglycerides sky high and with slightly high cholesterol.

My liver is perfect.

FIAT culture is garbage, boy things have to be proven, POW.

It is my daily read, I love it too. I just posted a great video here. It's an animation on Stoicism.

APOCALYPSE ANONYMOUS by

The Daily Stoic.

Waste No More Time Doing This

The Stoics were smart. They were well-read, well-informed about the issues of the day. They led armies and held public office, they put out great works of literature and art. They had families, they went to the theater.

But you know what they didn’t do? They didn’t spend a lot of time arguing with other people. Once when Epictetus was criticized, he didn’t even try to defend himself or correct them. If they really knew me, he joked to himself, they’d have said something worse. Actually though, Epictetus believed that one of the products of an education was learning what was your business and what wasn’t, as well as what was up to you and what wasn’t.

Arguing with other people? Trying to change their minds about stuff that didn’t matter? That was a losing game. That was a waste of time. As we said recently, one of the signs of progress in this journey you’re on should be that you’re arguing with others less, getting in fights less. Because you’re focused on yourself—and all the work you have to do there. Because you care less about what others think, because you accept what’s not up to you.

Losers get into fights on Twitter. Losers make mountains out of molehills, turn edge cases into culture war battlefields. Losers try to impress other people, try to get them to like them. Do they win these fights sometimes? Sure, but they are pyrrhic victories. In the end, they lose far more than they receive in spoils.

How does a Stoic respond instead? It’s actually pretty simple. “Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be,” Marcus Aurelius says. “Be one.”

The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday is my daily read and I highly recommend it.
