“The natural state of the free market is deflation”

Is a truth that has just really hit home

A naturally observable point

That struck me just now whilst putting IKEA furniture together

- Attempt 1 of shelving unit took a while

- Unit 2 was quicker

- By unit 4 I had a process that was streamlined

Same inputs (labour, raw material), same output (shelving unit), but with superior IP in production

This is a small example of why the trend of deflation is true

- Faster

- Cheaper

- Stronger

Natural outcomes from the attention of intelligence to anything it’s pointed at

It’s something that has been on my mind since listening to nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcps7ypf talking with nostr:nprofile1qqsfgg2lg25kxdwg0l9eazq6pwak9wd8j4geuyyu7hua9mmpw6qlvgspzdmhxw309ucnydewxqhrqt338g6rsd3eq9w8wumn8ghj7urjdau8jtnwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9eshqup08p3n2dejxdnryd3sxyenxdpjxv6x2vfexgexgvn98q6ryepkvf3xvv3s8yersvmzxqmnzv3svgekvvtyxvurvd3s8ycn2e33xvmnjvcjv0350 and nostr:npub1qkntvygrrxkc3ynfzw56aq8far9wnxcfjd8d4lfwhnnlnctn4k5sa2d05s recently

It’s so simple

It’s so obvious

But somehow so hard to grasp

Can it really be true that everything gets cheaper forever?

This simple truth will be normal on a Bitcoin standard

But we’ve been warped

Lied to

Miss-lead

Because our status quo measuring stick for value implies everything is getting more expense forever

That horrible feeling when real estate prices just keep getting further out of reach in the area you live in…

It’s not real

It’s fake

You’re being stolen from via the stealth tax of inflation

Wow what an insight to really hit home

On such a simple task

Hundreds of other tasks to complete as we unpack

Cheers to deflation all

Back to work

🙏🏻💪🏻😎

Brilliant lens through which to make decisions

👏👏👏

What’s your Ikigai?

Roland is a great guy

Not surprised he helped you out

I think you could make a very good case that Nostr isn’t social media

So if Nostr is where you hang out online

Then you’ve got nothing to worry about

Plenty of things the freedom oriented should be concerned about

The hard part: I’ve just spent my day in Australia doing what I needed, and none of what you mentioned even crossed my mind…

But just because you’re not conscious of it, doesn’t mean it’s not happening

And it’ll effect you just when you don’t need it to

Default option: focus on what you want

Keep building 💪🏻

Will have a read for sure! Welcome on the podcast anytime if you’d like

🙏🏻

Inspiring, insightful, and intriguing all at the same time

💪🏻

I’ve been using nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k7tcpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue04ckqg6

But tbh not spend enough time figuring it out

So cool when I start digging into it!

Trust you’re well Paco! Guru Paco 😂😜

Thanks!

Without Bitcoin and Nostr I’d be pretty depressed

Self-interest is key

The user

The individual

What do you want to create?

Bitcoin helps. For sure. But family, friends, tuning out from the BS

Be mobile

Don’t stick your head in the sand

Be nimble

Open new opportunities

It will be possible to slip through the cracks

Play the playing field as you see it

God speed!

Ridiculous

I would put the probability of both at sub 5%

1) sub 1% (especially in next 5 years)

2) sub 5% (not impossible, but would totally destroy any faith in US government and property rights,

so I don’t think the incentive is actually that strong)

Why invest in Nostr?

After 3.5 years, and 19 times packing up and moving house

Last night I slept at the property we purchased

Feels amazing

To know that it’s ours

Sending good vibes all

I hope you’re kicking the goals you set out to achieve

Big lessons along the way

Shorting physical real estate was harder than expected

Rental contacts

Landlords

Mould

All sorts

In summary “you can’t live in a Bitcoin”

Even if it does wonders for your purchasing power

Cheers

🍻

This is worth focusing on every day

Tireless advocacy

🙏🏻

More babies

More AI

More Bitcoin

More Nostr

Blended together you have the new frontier

Pleasure to be a pioneer with you sir

🙏🏻

Indeed

Anyone doing something like this?

RE also has a utility value, ie you can live in it, so it’s a blended value proposition

How best to incorporate Bitcoin into it?

Sun beaming down, been to the beach, cooking some fresh food for lunch, and once again thinking about a delicious lager

It’s not that the one I’m drinking is bad

It’s that I could make it so much better

For anyone that likes wine, they’ll understand what I mean, when the Providence of each product is so cool

When was it grown? Where was it grown? How is it blended? What is the history of the wine maker?

All these questions combine to create a totally unique bottle

Each vintage is different

Why couldn’t beer be similar?

As an experience, I believe there are people out there but they totally priced insensitive, they just love quality above all else

So if they spend $10 for $20 on one beer or do not

Hence the phrase “if you’re just going to have two, why not have the best two?”

Anyways, this idea continues to percolate for me

And what I’m wondering, is this something that I actually want to do? Or is this some kind of deep conditioning, and once again the cycle is playing out, and I’m trying to prove something to a dead ancestor of mine?

In particular, my father

Or is it rather some deep sense of knowing? A calling? An entire lifetime of experience in an around a family business, that can be brought to life in my own interpretation, now ready to appear?

On a simple level when I ask myself, “does the world need another beer company?” I answer: no.

The world needs a way to communicate free of censorship online

The world needs better money so we don’t all get screwed by a handful of people by inflation

We need to write the wrongs

But maybe that can be done through a simple product

like beer?

Maybe you can build a brand that stands for those things?

Or maybe you build a business that just works, and in your spare time advocate for those things?

Still plenty of thinking to do

Cheers to anyone having a crisp lager at lunch today

🙏🏻

Cool. Don’t need one. But looks great! Good luck with the launch

Where are you going?

Does short-form video have to be a drug? Yes it's very sticky, the hour I lost on YT shorts recently is testament to that, but it's very powerful and data dense sometimes

Perhaps you could have better filtering? Only certain tags, topics, creators could be seen eg. Time limits on consumption?

For sure someone will build it on Nostr. And for sure someone will make a great product. Why shouldn't you do it?

Love opening Nostr to this level of sophisticated conversation

Let’s ask the hard questions

Let’s dig deeper

How can we live with optimal health?

Where were we miss-lead?

How can we test this in ourselves? Ie verify

nostr:nprofile1qqs06hur0durup4gswajdrter25f5zhd7vpf9xnu34k8znh877mzngsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7rh225r and nostr:nprofile1qqsyvd24hd9slq8azdm04e3gl2l67lj7x8xjwswcp2jdyfwfy67zslspzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejsz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wst24d5r keep at it!

For sure the free market comes up with solutions

The question is whether or not you allocate into those opportunities or not…

I am making an effort to get more audience questions into episodes!

This week I am recording with nostr:nprofile1qqsprdnq6wh7jyfu423dvrufcnrjh4wt4en6ntpn5nqrqnqcwdnmw7gpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqghwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxsetvd9hkgetc9e3kvgru0sz on Tuesday and nostr:nprofile1qqsvnay22ef0dgqee0jr909va2tl3l4fwq6eparvrznq349xydq395sprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ymmdduh8xmmrd9skcqgmwaehxw309ankcetpwdhkuct5daezuer9wchhyetvv9usgmtf9u Wednesday

Anything you want me to ask?

Just keep going. The way forward will appear.

I’ve actually decided to ignore YT etc for now and just post long form podcasts via RSS and then promote and hang out Nostr-only

I found myself enjoying my time on Nostr so much more than the other platforms

I haven’t followed this story closely, but is this a government employee/politiican, who already taxes people more than ever before, asking for more funds?

What a surprise

Great question

Will weave it in

Yeah I’d like to learn about that

Yes. They could. But could they do it at scale? Won’t there always be someone willing to host your note?

Great article. Well worth a read to start my day

Personal development, especially around mindset, is one of the highest areas of ROI in my view

I especially like asking “why Nostr?”, the answer for which is so many things, all inspiring, and very helpful as one hone’s their strategy

Well that’s one way to get me fired up at the start of the day!

Great frame, and great way to inspire

The mission has already started. Most don’t know…
