People confuse having a job with being productive. In 2025, that’s no longer true. You can be employed and produce zero value and you can create massive value online and earn nothing for it. But how long can that imbalance last…?
Bitcoin might evolve into a new branch of capitalism, a new branch where markets are truly global, property is digital, and money is incorruptible.
I once watched a black-and-white movie from the 1950s and noticed a man whose job was to turn on the city’s streetlights after dark. Then came the automatic light switch, investors made money, and he lost his job.
Technology keeps doing that. Think about which jobs might disappear in the next 50 years, and invest in the companies building the replacements. It has always happened, and it will keep happening.
If Amazon can exist in every country, so can Bitcoin. Bitcoin is just doing what the internet already did to business. Bitcoin is global money.
There are no shortcuts, I’ve tried everything(almost).
Fast food worker, warehouse worker, SEO, software dev (startup/MNC/product/service/remote/onsite/multiple jobs at once), invested in ponzi schemes trying to get rich quick (RamSurvey, Amway, StrongNodes(crypto)), crypto trading, stock investing, rentals, modeling, writing, consulting, real estate investing, you name it.
Nothing was easy. There’s no such thing as “fully passive income.” The only real path is hard work and/or patience in whatever field you choose.
And honestly, I don’t even like working hard. So my approach is to work smart, and lean on patience, stacking long-term investments on the side while I kept experimenting with all of the above.
I’m not here to endorse Bitcoin, I post about it because it actually taught me more about capitalism than anything else, and I think everyone should learn about it too.
Post-work era is coming and everyone should be prepared, not just for survival, but to grow and adapt in ways we’ve never imagined.
-India was ruled by the British East India Company, not Britain.
-Central America was run by a fruit company (see “banana republics”).
-Africa was carved up by chartered firms.
-Hudson’s Bay Company owned and governed most of Canada’s land.
Under capitalism, companies aren’t businesses, they’re empires. Nations don’t control corporations, corporations control nations.
When movies went online through Netflix, a new era of entertainment began. Others that thrived offline, like Disney, followed and went online too. Now money and assets are moving online through Bitcoin and blockchain. Don’t get left behind, invest in “online money.”
Be your own risk manager. Have you thought about what could go wrong? What if interest rates rise? What if you lose your job? Do you have cash reserves, multiple income streams, insurance? Think of yourself as a business and always ALWAYS plan long term.
One purpose of Bitcoin could be to serve as a universal placeholder for storing value, a standard that is consistent across the planet for comparing and determining the worth of things. Right now, there is no global standard for valuing any other asset. Each asset carries its own limitations: the value of land depends on location, scarcity, fertility, and countless other factors; the value of stocks or the stock market depends on company performance, interest rates, and money supply. Cash is no longer pegged to an asset like gold (in most countries), so its supply fluctuates and so does its value.
Bitcoin fixes this. Its value is determined by the free market like any other asset, but it avoids the specific limitations that weigh down other assets. It is pure money and nothing else. Bitcoin could become a global standard of value, a baseline where you can compare Bitcoin prices (in any fiat currency) from 20 years ago to today, or compare the prices of goods across countries.
It can be the real money.
To give you an idea of how dumb stock and crypto markets can be sometimes: a stock, let’s say “ABCD,” gets good news and starts pumping. But along with it, a totally unrelated stock named “ABD” also starts pumping because some people mistakenly buy it instead of “ABCD”, for them, it’s about the hype, not the value. Real world Examples 👇🏼
-Zoom Video Communications (ZM) vs. Zoom Technologies (ZOOM) (defunct Chinese hardware company)
-Ford Motor Company (F) vs. Forward Industries (FORD) (manufacturer of carrying cases and accessories)
-Tesla (TSLA) vs. Tiziana Life Sciences (TLSA) (biotech firm)
-GameStop (GME) vs. Globus Medical (GMED) (medical device company)
-Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) vs. Dow Jones Transportation Average (.DJT) (stock market index)
Everyone buys Bitcoin at the price they deserve. Just imagine the patience and wisdom of the people who bought Bitcoin in the early 2010s, actually understood it, and never sold. They deserve all the castles and wealth now coming to their doorstep, especially those holding more than 10,000 Bitcoins.
Win capitalism using capitalism. Don’t be the guy who hates the iPhone just because you’re anti-capitalist, use it to save your time and boost your success. In the same way, use loans from banks to fund your ambitions. Leverage every tool the system gives you, and play its game to win.
If you find this game of capitalism too complex or overwhelming but still want to win, just buy Bitcoin and chill.
There are only two simple ways to win: buy land or buy Bitcoin. That’s why real estate is called the “dumb way to be a millionaire”, not because it’s bad, but because it’s straightforward. Bitcoin is the same. It’s just grade 4 math.
Bitcoin gets scarcer every four years. Less is mined. Less is available on exchanges. Then it’s simple supply and demand dynamics: as long as demand keeps going up, the price will keep going up, over months, years, and even decades.
That's why they say, "It's going up forever, Laura".
The countryside is vanishing. People are leaving villages at record rates worldwide. Agriculture is now highly mechanized and increasingly automated, needing fewer workers each year. In the future, most will live in climate-controlled megacities, self-contained urban bubbles, as capitalism always favors consolidation at the top.
There will be exceptions, elites on vast private estates dubbed “future suburbs,” or resilient small towns surviving through local economies or intentional communities or network state cities/towns.
But traditional villages and towns, as we know them, may largely disappear.
My strategy for altcoins: flip them for profit. My strategy for Bitcoin: never sell and keep buying more.
Capitalism turns everything into a franchise. Levi’s turned jeans into one, that’s why you get a consistent standard there, without the pushy sales tactics you often find in mom-and-pop shops. Most people still buy from Levi’s, making the brand even stronger.
In most industries, real power stays concentrated at the top with just a few players. Today, even hotels operate as franchises, that’s how capitalism keeps power centralized.
Theoretically, the price of bitcoin will always go up compared to FIAT currencies($, £, €, ₹) because of NGU* technology.
