Thanks. But how did you convince your wife it was a good idea. My wife is smart but thinks Microsoft is a better bet than bitcoin. I’m not going to let that happen but it’s uncomfortable. How did you resolve this?

Ok this isn’t going to be respectful (cos I do realize you’ve gone through shit) but this is about me. My wife is supportive of bitcoin when NGU but weirdly a fucking psycho when it’s going down (like now). How do you deal with the pressure cos reading through the lines you’ve gone through this as well. Without reverting to women are crazy, how do you deal with it?

I really don’t think we realise how far ahead nostr is.

I’m rich. But I’m not sure my kids will be. Generally I think you’ve got to own assets for the future. Cash is being printed out of existence. My wife’s family has owned property to beat cash. They’ve also owned gold but I think bitcoins going to be the settlement layer of the future. So I’m owning about 30% of our wealth in bitcoin. This isn’t a popular decision but I feel I need to own it for the sake of my children’s future. This is a risk I’m taking on myself. I think @nprofile1q... would understand but at some point you’ve got to risk your children’s future. You’ve got to take a stand!!!

Ultimately you decide how far your debauchery goes. We are all sinners but the extent is defined by you. I’m a using gods forgiveness to go pretty damn far……that’s it.

Basically he’s all about making money for himself and his family. Which in a weird way I can respect. But not when you’re the fucking president of the US. I’m relatively lukewarm about his grift. I’m living in Asia where grift is more or less expected (the amount matters though). So I don’t really know how to feel.

Ya. Without zaps 😂. They just don’t get it. There are loads of Palestinians on there who is have zapped but they’re on geyser and no way am I going to use a credit card.

Well it comes down to this. The majority of my wealth is in houses. This is from my wife and her parents I don’t feel it’s right to change this. I don’t have confidence that this is going to protect my children so I’ve put at least 30% of our wealth into bitcoin. Not going great at the moment but any spare cash I have is going into bitcoin even though my wife doesn’t know about this. I just think that it’ll be wrong to leave my kids without Bitcoin when I feel it’s going to be the settlement layer of the future. This is the thin red line. I could be gambling my children’s future on my obsession or I could be protecting their future. Time will tell. I think @nprofile1q... would understand.

I think they’re all the Maga gang. Maybe I’m naive but I really don’t get why anyone who cares about freedom doesn’t join nostr.
