“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

Most people expect sales skills to click overnight. They don’t.
The real wins come from getting 1% better each week:
Week 1: You fumble through objections
Week 4: You’ve heard them all before
Week 12: You’re anticipating them in advance
Week 24: You’re reframing the entire conversation
Sales isn’t about talent. It’s about showing up, getting uncomfortable, and learning from every “no.”
Track one thing you improved this week. Do it again next week.
Six months from now, you’ll be unrecognizable.

I still hold several bitcoins from 2013 that were bought for $800, close to the peak of $1,200.

Price crashed to $190 two years later, and in a span of a decade went up to $19600, down to $3150, back to $69000, down to $16K, then up to $126,000. It's now at an 11,000% gain at today's $88,000.

And these silver and gold boomers are saying I should sell now? Sell for what?

Bitcoin IS the exit.

“My doubts are traitors;
I will not let them rob me of the good I can achieve. I release fear and take courageous action toward the opportunities before me.”

Capitalism isn’t collapsing.
It’s being hijacked by inflation, fake money, and monetary parasites.
Stop blaming the system. Start blaming the thieves inside it.

Inflation isn't neutral.
It doesn't hit everyone equally.
It's a weapon that specifically targets the people furthest from the money printer:

• Savers get vaporized. That emergency fund? Purchasing power cut in half every decade.
• Workers get bled. Wages adjust slowly. Groceries adjust instantly.
• Retirees get slaughtered. Fixed income meets exponential debasement.
• The poor get obliterated. No assets to hedge. Just labor being extracted in depreciating units.

Meanwhile, the people closest to the spigot, banks, hedge funds, sovereign wealth funds, connected insiders, they get the fresh currency first, before prices adjust.
They buy assets.

You buy groceries at inflated prices with stale paychecks.
This isn't "policy failure."
This is class warfare by stealing your wealth via inflation.

If you think capitalism is the problem, you’ve swallowed the wrong pill.
The real threat is fake money, endless inflation, and a rigged monetary game.

Bitcoin fixes this.
