People like to say, if you spend money on anything, you're short bitcoin. You should work as hard as possible, as much as possible to collect as much as possible.

For bitcoin adoption and encouraging growth of the network, I do like this attitude. It does help shift a perspective for people in a fiat mindset, which is to consume it all now and fuck the future. Historically, humans in much of the world, had to spend all year preparing for winter. I believe changes in modern society reduce that need at our detriment.

Should we maximize of our efforts for the future? When does the future become the present? I think working on a seasonal cycle was better. Something like: prepare, harvest / celebrate, prepare, endure. A longer term, generational, cycle is also important.

I don't want to be rich AF. I want to find a balance of saving for later and living in the moment. My future is questionable anyway. Its likely I won't be here. I mostly just want the freedom to work on the things that I enjoy and attempt to find my own ways to contribute.
