I had a boss that bought like $500 worth of btc in 2017 as a joke. I bet he didn’t think it’s so funny anymore

so many people leaving nostr :/ i get it

I like financial markets because there’s a scoreboard.

That’s rare in life.

Personally I’m not here for the money, I’m here to be right. That’s the thing that drives me.

When you argue with others in politics, in business, etc… people always have an out.

They always have a way of claiming they were right when they were actually wrong.

You see people try and apply this in investing as well, they say things like “you got lucky”.

I didn’t get lucky, i’m simply better at this game than you are. Check the scoreboard.

If someone comes to you boasting confidently of a new model, prediction, or macro forecast ask them the following. If you’re so smart, why aren’t you rich?

If they say well I am rich, then fair enough. The scoreboard doesn’t lie.

If they start to equivocate, redefine terms or direct your attention away from the scoreboard rest assured… they are full of shit.

Real players in the game respect the scoreboard, they know at the end of the day when all that talk is put to rest it’s the only thing worth a damn.

I'm buying sats today. God it is so difficult. I remember when I stacked a lot and now I can't. So much work.

And it's going to get way worst :(

To let this opportunity slip away from you. We are very close to 1000 SATs per dollar :(

The irony of nostr is that it lack the same addictive qualities of inferior centralized social media services. It really is a better user experience in terms of content and quality by way of curating one’s feed. But the lack of the ‘surprise’ of brain-cycle content makes the drugs of social media less potent.

Okay bitcoin is really going to break its ath this week for real this time. Ops are now way too confident in their bearishness

Growing up, the poor kids would be like, “that’s not your house, that’s your parent’s house.” These same commies are now triggered that the rich kids are getting inheritances and they aren’t. The moral of the story is family is everything, and it is you and your family vs the world. The Jews have psyoped the goys to think there is some honor in starting from scratch every generation, when they clearly don’t do that themselves. I see ops do this too, “I’m not going to pay for my kids college!” Okay start them off in debt like you, clearly sticking it to the man!

No wonder why they all got so triggered by British hodls mantra of just getting to one btc and calling out them for being poor. It’s not that part, clearly. It’s him being a scammer! That’s what they are really mad about

It’s crazy how orange pillers can make btc their identity, go to conferences, listen to dozens of podcasts, and still not have 1 btc

There have been many beefsteaks where I have lost usd because I believe in bitcoin.

I wouldn’t consider a $50 bottle of scotch to be fancy. Just high quality. I was more referring to $1,000 bottle of wine or $5000 bottles of scotch.

Personally I don’t have a mansion currently but I’d like one because I have 7 people and a dog living in my home lol and could use some more space. A mansion isn’t cold if you fill it with a big family.

I’ve sampled all the fancy rich people stuff at this point in life and will now tell you what’s worth it and what’s not…

Fancy car - Not worth it. Save the money and get a regular car.

Really fancy car - Maybe worth it? Depends. If you’re super into cars these are pretty fun.

First class air travel - Worth it. But fair warning you can’t go back to economy once you get used to first.

Private air travel - Not worth it. Too expensive. Unless you’re some kind of huge celebrity you’ll be fine in first class.

Luxury hotel rooms - Worth it. There’s a big difference between the ritz and the best western. Enough said.

Fancy watch - Maybe worth it? Similar to the really fancy car thing. If you like it go for it, if not don’t worry you aren’t missing out on anything.

Fancy clothes - Not worth it. Rich people don’t wear this crap. Gucci, LV etc is for upper middle class people to signal to poor people.

Mansion - Worth it. Having a nice home is always nice, probably don’t go obnoxiously large though. Beyond 10k square feet you’re going to have weird maintenance and headaches taking care of the home.

Private chef - Not worth it. The food tastes good, but it’s another person in your house and that shit gets annoying.

Yacht - Maybe worth it? This goes in the same category as super cars and watches. If you’re into boats and you like spending time on the water it might be worthwhile. Otherwise just hangout by the pool, lake, ocean… same vibe but cheaper.

Maids - Worth it. Nobody wants to do their own cleaning.

Fancy food - Not worth it, caviar and foie gras will never beat burger and fries. High quality food yes, fancy rich guy food no. Maybe every once in awhile.

Fancy booze - Not worth it. Gets you drunk the same as regular booze. The richest friend I have drinks natty light. True story.

Unfortunately this is the lie we have been told by…capitalists. It has never been free from “government “, capitalism is the government.

I certainly don’t have all the answers but capitalism obviously isn’t and has not been working.
