Self tought austrian economist. You can't give a right that you don't already possess. Forever #Bitcoin hodler

This is something I realised as well while learning economics. Instead of being pushed in a certain direction, I roam around the internet learning things I'm curious about or want to know... Instead of learning the things others want me to learn such as what is seen in schools.

I've got no degree. No diploma or anything, but I understand every aspects of the economy. The knowledge is what matters, not the piece if paper.

So true 😄. I admire it so much. Shame I don't have any relative who are maxi like I am.

This is the way to go!💯

Having no car is even better tho. I can DCA huges amounts without paying the car loan, gas and car insurance.

I got this feeling that the government is now extremely warry of bitcoin. They know, if they play too much with the interest rate lever, people will tend toward bitcoin and other hard assets. We just need another economic meltdown and some eyeballs on bitcoin's price/inflation for adoption to start going mainstream.

They can't afford any error.

I can see the fear in Powell's face.

It's okay he cant steal my seed words. The cash is worthless and losing track of time is not the end of the world, i can get time again if needed

Love this design, what model is it?

I've been using a faraday bag for my phone everyday for over the last year. I can say it can still be used if you download the content first and you have a pair of wired earphones/headphones. The cell connections will be blocked and you'll still be able to consume content. There are also bags that have a small opening to access the screen. Altough I think this defeats the purpose of the farday cage.

I freakin love this! 💯

Tho I think it's important to let the masses know that satoshis could be more divisible in the future. Otherwise they'll say things such as "well one day they'll be no more satoshis in circulation"

Sats stores is probably a bad marketing strategy because Bitcoin causes natural prices deflation. A sat store isn't a good name for a store that sells items for less than a sat

A lot of people have heard my moped story but I don’t think I’ve ever told the story of my extremely cheap wedding lol 😂

I got married in 2016, at the time I was aggressively stacking sats and trying to be as frugal as possible.

So I convinced my fiancĂŠe to have the wedding in our backyard to save money.

Total cost was under $5,000 which included the dress and her ring (seriously). So how did I pull that off when weddings in America routinely cost 30-50k?

Here’s how…

1. Ring: Her ring is fake. More specifically it’s a moissanite which is a lab grown gemstone that looks like a diamond but isn’t a diamond. My wife was on board with this because it allowed her to get a much bigger stone than she otherwise would have and no one can tell the difference. Total cost: $1,200

2. Dress: When it came time to pick out the dress I didn’t want to interfere, so I just let her mom and sister go pick one out with her. She didn’t have a budget, but she was fully bought into my crazy money saving plan and found a dress she loved that only cost $500. That’s how you know you’re marrying the right girl. Total cost: $500

3. Venue: Free obviously because we did it in our backyard, but I did spend a little buying gifts for the neighbors because we were going to be making a lot of noise. Total cost: $200

4. Tables & chairs: We rented these, something to understand when it comes to rentals. When I called vendors for this wedding I didn’t tell any of them it was a wedding. I used the word “event” on the phone. This makes everything 30% cheaper. Total cost: $600

5. Decorations: we bought a nice metal arch to get married under for $300 and then we spent an additional $500 on lanterns, tablecloths, candles, fake flowers etc… I put them all up myself. Total cost: $800

6. Drinks: Instead of having a fancy bar with a bartender or whatever I went to Costco bought a bunch of wine and beer, threw it in a cooler and called it a day. Total cost: $500

7. Music: at this point in the thread you really think I’m hiring a fancy DJ for this shit? lol no we had a Bluetooth speaker. Total cost: $200

8. Food: instead of doing some BS catering company we got a taco cart guy. Taco cart guy is the shit, you should really have one of these at every event. Everyone loved this dude and said they were some of the best tacos they’ve ever had. Total cost: $500

9. Photo/video: Even though I was running a production company at this time we decided to skip the video altogether. Why? Because nobody ever watches it. Plus my business partner and crew members were going to be attending the wedding. The only thing you want is that one photo of you walking down the aisle that you’re going to hang in the house. So I hired a good photographer I knew in town to show up for 20 mins and take a few shots of the ceremony. Total cost: $400

Bringing the grand total for the backyard wedding to $4,900

The wedding was so out of the norm by modern standards, that my new father in law pulled me aside and suggested I was being too frugal and needed to loosen up a bit. I smiled and nodded politely and then continued right along my path. My wife was on board, I was on board. We had a vision for our future. No one was going to stop me, no matter how “well intentioned” A vision I’m happy to report we are living today.

You want different results than others? You gotta do different shit than they do. Be weird. People will judge you for it, but it won’t matter, because in the end you’ll win.

Today we look back fondly on our cheap wedding. 10/10 would recommend.

I think this was a smart move, there's not point in spending more money than what is really needed, why anyway? To impress your neighboor?
