Am already all in, gonna have to trade Bitcoin for food at some point on lightning : )

Work either rises to our aspirations, or brings us down to the bills we need to pay.

I suspect Bitcoin companies are in the first bracket.

When I eat at roadside restaurant, I try to not look at the kitchen, how it’s cooked and dishes washed.

Many take same approach when they withdraw cash from the ATM. They expect it to work, until it doesn’t.

Unlike an apple that each of you can eat only one, information flows and multiplies to both of you.

Give away all the books you’ve read, you have not lost anything.

When there is nowhere else to go, I have arrived.

“Freedom is a feeling, not only a list of things you’re allowed to do, I feel better.

You do business, get married, entertain yourself and drink. No licence required.

However it’s not a utopia. We are on our own. No one asked us to come here. We are expected to make ourselves useful or go away.” - The Mandibles.

Nice! I would like to copy and send it to state retirement fund that deducts my salary, but I don’t think they’re asking 😂

1. A bitcoin debit card that works for me, is one that stores it only as bitcoin and converts at point of purchase, as a payment rail.

2. I would only keep 1 week expenses on it, if it’s custodial.

3. The cash back is to just cover the annual maintenance fee, so note the minimum monthly spend required, fits with actual expenses.

4. From what I see, it’s much cheaper than bitrefill, so far.

5. Freedom is providing the optionality for merchant to receive in fiat or lightning, and for me to make payment in Bitcoin only.

I would say, start slow traveling as well if your work allows it. Place will become clearer.

GM. Leg day : )

Drop netflix ; )

When in Vietnam, coffee.

1. A likely path is to then, not take on venture cap but to get to sustainability.

2. this is un-sexy and staff might leave if too much grit required for god metrics over vanity ones, for too long.

Easier for them to work with venture backed co with their longer time preference on profit-loss, if at all.

3. You will also have to keep up with inflation, by providing increments, so sustainability slips back into a loss. Thank Keynes.

Result. Staff leave for venture backed co. which can be at loss by kicking can down road.

4 solo-preneur, or tiny team size might have a chance. Use only what you need and can pay for.

The place I’m traveling has bbc banned. It’s fine, i only check it for sports nowadays.

Sauntered over to aljazeera, which I haven’t checked in a while and it reads like a chapter out of the mandibles. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/longform/2023/3/1/you-work-like-a-dog-but-each-month-by-the-10th-your-pay-is

Hmm some sort of versioning of edit would make more sense, I think. A straight up edit might cause comments to a post to lose context.

I would interpret it as prioritise places to travel to, where it’s allowed to use Bitcoin as a form of payment, over those where you can’t, where there is a choice.

As a thought experiment, adding a priority to only one box each, helps inform me on my strategy on Bitcoin and how it differs from others.

Yes that example helps a lot, thanks : )

In #[0]​ article value 4 value, he mentions allow those who add value to participate in value flows.

Can someone elaborate on this, or provide examples? 🙏

Take care both of you, all will be well, sending good energy

Wozniak likes the technical aspect of Bitcoin. Some like the economic aspect. For me, it’s the human rights key as a freedom tool.

Same prism, different angles.
