Absolutely. I want to use Bitcoin as money. I was to save in it, spend in it and invest in it.
Which is interesting, because the kaynesians are telling us that without inflation, no one would spend their money at all.

There’s a guy in the hockey world who makes a living selling “confidence” to goalies.
His whole pitch is getting them to look in the mirror and call themselves POWERFUL. But the catch is, they have to keep calling him to feel confident, because their confidence isn’t grounded in anything real. Of course, he invoices them for the phone call.
A couple of years ago, he invited me on his podcast. He asked for my take on confidence. I basically said what you just did: real confidence comes from hard work and results grounded in reality, not pretending.
After that, I never heard from him again. The episode never aired.
He calls himself the “Goalie Mindset Guy.” Honestly, it should be the Goalie FIAT Mindset Guy... confidence backed by nothing.

There is a "knee stack" on the pads. When they go down, it absorbs a lot of the impact.

Also, goalies wear knee pads to protect from shots going to that area. It adds more cushion when going down to make saves.

That's something that bothers me about normies... I get it, that it's hard and the system is stacked against you. At the same time, people need to stop being victims.
I remember when my partner and I started our company. We would travel hours to break even, just to grow our client base. I was making approximately $400 CAD a month, for the first year. My wife was in nursing school at the time. We would eat eggs all day everyday, because that's all we could afford and didnt want to eat garbage for cheap.
The path to reach escape velocity out of the system was fucking brutal... I wish there was an easier way. I'm not the type of person who wants others behind me to have it harder than I did. I want it to be easier for them, which is partly why I'm a Bitcoiner. However, the reality is, that getting out of the system is fucking hard.
People can either bitch about it and feel bad about themselves, or they can deal with it.

The problem with Canada is the parliamentary system. Québec and Ontario holds all the seats. Irrespective as to what the West wants, the East always has the power. It's unsustainable over the long term.
