Happy new year, Nostr.
For the occasion: one of my personal favorite works of art

😂 the Moonshots guys are so blindly bullish on AI it's comical
I think you mean "praying"

"Remortgage the house, babe. You're not 'all in' until your at least 2x levered long, honey."
My wife will get there 😂
You can tell a lot about how someone has lived their life by their body, especially later in life. Their posture, the way they walk, their overall physique and complexion—all these provide clues as to whether they lived gracefully and morally, or pridefully and hedonistically.
Your body accumulates and stores your actions.
Your body provides proof of your life's work.
Nah, I love hearing the coyotes. It's the sound of the wild.
Worked like a dog today...dawn to dusk... mowing, weeding, brush hogging , burning, cleaning, painting, repairing. Enjoyed a smoked pork butt as the sun set. It was a good day.


Yup I totally get it. And tere is a lot of misrepresentation just on the cherry picking of measurement dates. Using any sort of past data to forecast the future is also problematic
I get the sentiment. However I know exactly my average cost basis (and my CAGR nostr:nprofile1qqsfkve5keksgptzzvvrkt3k03kha0rqf9hs5hc79w80l739hksfh8spy4mhxue69uhkvet9v3ejumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtm0d4hxjh6lwejkuar4wfjhxqgnwaehxw309ahx7um5wghrvvps9emhges9uej8n 👀). I am also a true bitcoiner in that I put every last penny that I can into BTC and am ideologically possessed by it. I like tracking things. It's also my profession as a CPA. To each their own!
"Let's just start from this principle: if Bitcoin has returned 55 % CAGR, annual growth rate, for the last five years, what the fuck more do you need than that?" - nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqfvwaehxw309a58garswvaz7tm8d96xsatz9e3k7mf0f46hg6tw09tkzmrvv46z7cnvv9ehgusqypz0clztn986hvk6z7kgu0273hm0ehchxpvk6ls86dewuzgl8c2tsgmewln w nostr:nprofile1qyt8wue69uhh2mtzwfjkctnvda3kzmp6xsurgwqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgxy3c5lqj6g9nqpeg0ea7xgdmurrrq9nc8fx5er2930pq8jdc2vzyu7yza6
He's right. I encourage everyone to calculate the CAGR on their own personal investments. It's the best metric for cross-asset comparison. I have been DCA-ing since 2021 and the CAGR of my personal stack is currently 66%. Have AI help you set up a spreadsheet to do this. It's wildly valuable knowledge. I — like every other moon boi — find myself complaining that we're "stuck" at $115,000. But when I look at my CAGR, I know there is nothing better I could be investing in than Bitcoin. It's extremely unlikely that I could consistently beat 66%, so I need to chill out and appreciate Bitcoin.
Agreed. The left-right axis just tell you what people prefer to do with an amount of control or freedom...almost like a personality indicator more than anything.
Thank you Keeth- one thing that's keeping me grounded recently has been strength training.. keep moving forward..just like you say

I needed to hear it, because honestly I'm in it now, and it is difficult. You gave me a bit of hope that perhaps it's only temporary. Thank you for that.
The fields of wild Aster and Goldenrod are my among my favorite things about my home.

Wow. I never realized how Orwellian the term "hate speech" is...
A truly powerful person is able to channel all energy—negative or positive—towards constructive and meaningful ends.
