HODLing: a strategy so passive that a corpse can execute it flawlessly.

Got fired? It is your lucky day!

You are now free to pursue YOUR vision, not your boss's or the CEO's.

Your technical ability, it turns out, was easy to replicate and replace.

But no no one replace your vision.

It was always your edge.

Harsh reality:
Nobody cares about YOUR craft.
Except you.
Everyone else cares about how your product will profit their lives.

No one needs you to be
Artisan coder
Artisan writer
Artisan architect

You need that.
So do your hobbies in your spare time, make money by being useful.

Money is a constraint set. The constraints determine the outcome.

This is the single most important idea in monetary economics, and it is the one most often buried under ideology, sentimentality, and confusion.

Gold is hard to dig out of the ground, hard to counterfeit, hard to transport across oceans. These are constraints, and for five thousand years they produced a particular kind of economic behavior: careful investment, patient accumulation, and a natural resistance to the concentration of monetary power.

Fiat currency is easy to produce, easy to expand, and easy to direct toward those closest to its source. These are different constraints, and they produce a different kind of economic behavior — the kind we live under now.

Bitcoin is hard to compute. That is its constraint. And the economic behavior it produces is something we are only beginning to understand.

Bitcoin does not guarantee prosperity, but fiat guarantees poverty.

If dead men can HODL, then what are you doing that they cannot?
