Europe sucks

Yeah the architecture is nice but a lot of buildings are run down with socialist vibes

I do like how housewife / stay at home mom has become the ultimate status symbol.

It’s funny when my wife quit working she had to lie to all of her coworkers and pretend like she’d be coming back in 5 years or something.

She never had any plans of coming back.

I wasn’t overexaggerating with my euro rage lol

It feels like the third world but with big gov

I want one, I think the issue is they can’t afford it so they act like they don’t want it

I was ready to fight this Italian dude in Rome for trying to cut me in line. I got in his face lol

They were insufferable lol

For sure. Blessed

Ops don’t understand this but the creature from Jekyll hide was a unanimously determined conspiracy theory book back then according to the mainstream

Americans that were exposed to the early Internet have a huge advantage over the rest of the world. High iq rich Americans dominated the early web. It’s never been the same since

Yeah it’s a common story , also thinking they have more time . All the ops did

Fuck dude, we had it removed in the 90s, in my city, yet people voted to bring it back. Literally voted for it to be brought back in 2025, because "cavities".

Thought experiment.

Option # 1

Let’s say you have 10 bitcoin and we hit 2 million in the next few years.

You’re tempted so you sell it for 20 million dollars.

After taxes you’re be left with 16MM.

Which you use to comfortably generate 1.2MM a year in the tradfi markets.

So you take the money and retire.

Bitcoin crashes 60% back to 800k.

For a few years you feel like a genius. You enjoy your new rich person lifestyle.

You even buy back a few bitcoin. 2 to be exact. 20% of what you used to have.

Then bitcoin rises over the next decade to be worth 50 million per coin.

You’re worth 120 million now. And you decide to sell a little over half a coin and upgrade your lifestyle again to be able to generate an additional 2 million a year.

You’re now on paper worth 120 million, you generate 3.2 million a year (266k a month) and you’ve been largely stress free for the last decade.

Your kids will inherit roughly 1.62 bitcoin from you upon your death.

You have some level of regret about not hodling through, but you’ve been largely stress free and the mental health benefit was worth it in your mind.

Vs.

Option # 2

You have the same 10 bitcoin but you Hodl them.

Your stress levels are persistently higher.

You also decide to retire when Bitcoin hits 2 mil, but you decide to do so in bitcoin terms.

Your plan is to sell a little bitcoin as needed in order to fund your lifestyle.

This is roughly 1-3 million sats a month. Depending on bitcoin price.

Over the course of 10 years you end up selling or spending 2.4 bitcoin and are still left worth 7.6btc when bitcoin reaches 50 million.

Your net worth is 380 million.

You’ve reduced your lifestyle in bitcoin terms down to a million sats a month. (500k) or 6 million per year. You’re 46, Assuming you live until you’re 90 you will pass down 2.32 bitcoin to your kids.

You have no regrets about the way you played it, but your stress was consistently higher and there were a few scary months along the way.

Which option do you choose?

1 or 2?

OPTION 2 BUT NOT BE STRESSED ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE IS SAFETY IN SATS.
