I'm done reading Broken Money by LynAlden (npub1a2c…w83a)
It was easy to read and mostly easy to understand. Being in Bitcoin for almost 8 years, I've heard of most stories about money history. But I discovered some more in her book.
I read Broken Money because I wanted to find a book to give to my noicoiner friends, who are allergic to Bitcoin, just so they can understand my point of view - why I'm saving in BTC. I can't give them The Bitcoin Standard, they'd never even open the damn book...
Lyn made a great job at reducing the level of orange-pilling, even though it transpires here and there that there's no second best :)
I can now go to the next step, and recommend my friends to read the book.
I spent a lot of time on chapter 15 - reading it twice - because I had no idea how any of it worked, between base and broad money, Treasury, Fed, and Banks. It's still a bit nebulous, but I'm sure I'll get more stuff when listening to podcasts, thanks to Mary and Sara...
Favorite quote: There will always be people who believe they know what the best way to live is, and that they somehow have the right to force others to live that way.
This is why we #bitcoin
