Thank you Jeff for shining a light on one of the leading issues of our time.

PS I tried to ⚡️ your post but got this error…

On Nostr, not only does it live on

…but it’s about to pay for dinner tonight 🤯

In 20 years there will be 20k billionaires in the world and half of them will be bitcoiners.

Buy a lambo?

Nah

We’re buying a seat at the table.

The good news is that the Graphene forums have a ton of discussion, so you can usually check there to see of certain things work.

I use maps to find places, but OSMAnd works great for navigation. I copy the gps coordinates over. Though it's not as polished as maps, it gets the job done without an internet connection.

#GrapheneOS is just user-controlled Android. No training wheels. It's very good, but anyone coming from an iPhone is in for an adjustment period. Very little hand holding.

Challenging myself to use #GrapheneOS as my daily mobile driver has made me very proficient. I'm not going back to an iPhone.

Challenging myself to use #Fedora Silverlight as my daily desktop driver has made me very proficient. I'm not going back to MacOS.

Force yourself to free yourself.

It's like a nostr Instagram, is all.

A lot of people have heard my moped story, but heres the math on it.

In 2016 I needed $5,000 to pay my wife’s master’s school tuition.

I didn’t have $5,000 cash at the time, but I did have bitcoin.

Bitcoin was trading at roughly $500, so I would have had to sell 10 bitcoin in order to pay the tuition.

I didn’t want to do that so I sold my car instead for $5,500.

I took $500 of that and bought a shitty moped and used the rest to pay my wife’s tuition.

So I rode the moped around the rest of the year and everyone made fun of me. Usually I play this part of the story up, but tbh it didn’t bother me. The people making fun of me were poorer than I was, they didn’t understand bitcoin or the market or even basic budgeting.

When people would make fun of me I would tell them why I was doing what I was doing. Then I would start peppering them with questions about their financial life.

“Oh so you financed your refrigerator? You’re still paying that off huh?”

“You have a timeshare you’ve never been to? How’d you get talked into that?”

People would generally go from laughing at me riding the moped to feeling shell shocked by me popping their bubble of comfortable delusion.

Still I drove the moped and everyone thought I was being weird and ridiculous and silly etc…

At 100k that decision was worth a million dollars.

At a million it will have been worth 10 million.

And at 10 million it will have been a nine figure decision.

100 million dollars.

I only rode the stupid moped for 8 months.

Ask yourself? Would you face 8 months of sacrifice and ridicule for 10 million in the future?

Because there are things you could be doing today that would generate that for future you.

My advice is to have your own moped moment.

Do something a little weird/cringe/out there in order to stack more sats and then check in on the sats in 10-15 years.

I think you’re going to be happy with the results.

Today was (hopefully) my last day working as a physician.

All in on #Bitcoin, my hedge fund, and #nostr for the foreseeable future. 👀

Hopefully this time the retirement from #radiology will stick. 😂

Onwards. ⚡️

bitcoin content can be good, but man i wish nostr had some more diversity.

don’t get me wrong, as a bitcoin luvr, i don’t mind seeing bitcoin related content, but a lot of what is posted is useless.

clients like olas are a great way to diversify the nostr ecosystem, i understand the hesitation by a lot of folks to want nostr to be hidden from the general public, but “normies” you hate, will bring a lot of good with them. even if you think the “normies” are awful…
