Working in fiat 🤡🌎 is really beginning to grate on me.
I have been working in credit unions since just before the 2008 financial crisis and in consumer lending (contributing to fractional reserve banking) since 2012, and had no clue how morally corrupting easy money was. I had bought the "we're helping our members," BS hook, line, and sinker.
Then I got into #Bitcoin in 2021 and Austrian Economics shortly thereafter. Learned what money actually is, and what it ought to be. More importantly, that I have been contributing to the opposite team for the bulk of my professional life. Yet I have continued to live with this moral dilemma because I have a wife and three kids that rely on me keeping a steady income.
It wears on me some days more than others. Today was one of those days that it was particularly hard. Need out, but not sure where I would go, considering my entire professional skill-set is built around the ponzi scheme.
