Pain is a great teacher. They will learn one way or another.
There'd be no dumb shit about msats if he were
Where the hell in yakihonne can I access my bookmarks?
False. Frequenting the bar is gay
Perhaps it's an issue of some sort of processing fee? Could be greed too but an easy cop out answer would be fees

I absolutely love the game news I see from you. keep it up
Peaceful, not harmless.
I notice a good amount of people in the BTC community exploring diets like low-carb, keto, carnivore etc. I'd like to learn more but notice a ton of information and I know not what to believe. Can someone who finds this important send me what/whom they follow so I can get on somewhat of a directed path? Please and thank you
Reticulum fixes this 🤘
At first glance this looked like a pretty screencap from space engineers :)
Space will be your biggest problem and after a while it will get old
so what we just give up?
Orange pilled a family-woman looking for purpose the other day. I found no bitchatters on the cruise ship but this will do for now.
I'm sure some others out there have clients they love. How have you had the most success orange pilling them? Asking for a friend.
I am a financial advisor.
I'm young in the business. The vast majority of us are here for the purpose of making as much money as possible. Not because that's what we want inside, but because that is what we are taught. The route of a financial advisor starts young. If you aren't 20 years old in the beginning, you probably won't make it past your first year. Who cares why. The young are impressionable. Don't blame them for they know not what they do. Not for the first few years anyways... What they become in the long-arc, just like anything else is the product of their values applied to their decision making. Courageless people exist everywhere. In finance, you can make the most money, so they often find themselves there. But not all are like that...
I became a bitcoiner in 2021 after listening to Saifedean Ammous speak on the Lex Friedman podcast. Bought the book and down our rabbit hole we go. Further exploration lead me to understand "Fix the money fix the world". This would take years of course. Arguably into 2023. This was the only way we fixed things. The only way to achieve abundance for everyone.
I became a financial advisor in 2022. Learned about AUM, annuities+LI and all the products a client could buy. I became truly convinced of their worth (assuming a bitcoinless world). Under a tradfi lens, they are still quality. About as quality as the statement that a treasury bond is risk-free anyways. But I knew how to do right by the client in a bitcoiner sense and a tradfi sense. They almost always disagree.
The bigger impact stuff is around financial planning. To me it's more financial strategizing alongside them. Two minds. That is why my clients hire me. When young in being an FA, you think you know the optimal move for a client and decide to tell them how it's going to work; making the decision for them with little input from them other than their basic objective and risk tolerance. This never works. Instead, the idea has to very clearly in their mind reflect their decided path towards the goal in a way they understand. You have to spend a lot of time with the client to educate them on what they're doing and why. For example. A client may tell me they want to grow their wealth. Someone may recommend contribute to the S&P 500 for its performance track record. A non-bitcoiner would do this with little though. But to suggest instead we contribute to a bitcoin stash in self custody would be insane. The difference is one's belief in bitcoin. In other words. Someone cannot invest in something in which the have no personal conviction. Getting my clients to access information in bitcoin to further their understanding has been the biggest struggle.
I sell traditional investments, while helping my clients learn about bitcoin so they see the scam underlying everything; especially their traditional investments. I'd be happy to discuss how I do this and still sleep very well at night.
Lately, I've found the majority of time I spend talking with my clients is some round about way of me bringing them to bitcoin. If not roundabout, then completely overt. "The single biggest piece of advice I can give you is the one that gets you to study bitcoin." I try and try and try. Asking them to read is too much it seems. Shouting at them is also quite ineffective. Lately the only thing working has been monologuing with the information I learn from you folks. They see the transparency of my intentions and because some have known me for years, they get closer to maybe perhaps one day thinking about looking into it. I listen to a lot of the louder voices on here in the development and bitcoin space and it gives so much hope. I just keep going. I think I was put into this position with the type of integrity to not ignore bitcoin because of my incentive to do so.
I'd be more than happy to discuss more if anyone finds this interesting. This is more to show appreciation and to describe myself in poorly executed brevity so you guys understand from where this appreciation comes.
Thank you to everyone. Keep developing. Keep talking. Keep asking questions and demanding they be answered. Know you help me greatly in my mission to make more bitcoiners.
