Family over Fiat
After years in academic medicine, I’m closing one chapter and starting another. My work has been deeply meaningful—caring for the sickest patients and tackling the toughest cases. But it came at a cost. I’ve missed milestones and moments with my family—dinners, bedtimes, and the simple joys that add up to a lifetime of memories.
I’ve made the decision to step into a new role as an anesthesiologist at a practice that offers an incredible amount of balance. It’s a rare opportunity to continue doing the work I love while also gaining the time and space to focus on what matters most: making memories with my wife and kids and exploring other passions such as mission work.
One reason I’m able to make this choice is because of Bitcoin. It’s not just the best savings technology that exists—it’s also a mindset. Bitcoin has taught me to think with a low time preference, to value what truly matters in the long run: family, time, and the things fiat can’t buy.
I’m grateful for the lessons learned in my career and the new opportunities ahead. Most of all, to building a future that prioritizes what really counts.
