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

In 2016 I needed $5,000 to pay my wifeโ€™s masterโ€™s school tuition.

I didnโ€™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 didnโ€™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 wifeโ€™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 didnโ€™t bother me. The people making fun of me were poorer than I was, they didnโ€™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.

โ€œOh so you financed your refrigerator? Youโ€™re still paying that off huh?โ€

โ€œYou have a timeshare youโ€™ve never been to? Howโ€™d you get talked into that?โ€

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 etcโ€ฆ

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 youโ€™re going to be happy with the results.

Crazy that I f you saved the $500,

- in usd you couldnโ€™t even buy a pedal bike now

- in btc you could buy โ€ฆ whatever

Hereโ€™s to pinching pennies for a better tomorrow ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿฝ
