I listened to the Breedlove interview with G Edward Griffin last night. The guy just turned 92 and he's still sharp as hell. I don't know if it's good genes or what, but I find it amazing. He's definitely worth listening to. Of course, his book The Creature from Jekyll Island is a great read.
Some people are just born with an extra bit of oomph in their genes. I can only hope I'm reasonably sharp if I manage to reach such a milestone. But then again, living that long means you have to endure all the bullshit life has to throw at you before eating your cake.

yes, very good interview!

I'm watching the vid, and wow, he's indeed really sharp - he must have done something right or done less of the wrong things. How can someone 92 and be like this while many are being so weak and barely take care of themselves around that age? quite interesting.

this is why I think bitcoiners will live more than nocoiners/shitcoiners... we put our mind at intense work. That means the brain is trained every fucking day and generate more cells.

agree, also less stress and more peaceful in generally.

did you read this book world without cancer?
reply
I know he wrote it but no, I haven't read it. I remember reading about it years ago. He talked about consuming a plant to cure cancer, right?

apricot seed, and I would like to go to the Hunza Valley in Pakistan one day, to see how people eat in their daily life and is it really no one get cancer there, but then I guess maybe also have something to do with stress level, water and air quality.

I ate these for quite a while after putting dried Hunza apricots in my porridge in the mornings.
I thought I'd found a hack to get 'free' little almond-like nuts out of the kernel (they tasted quite almondy)
I later discovered that the almondy taste might be due to the amount of natural cyanide in them and stopped.
Then, months later, I had a senior moment and started to do it again - stopping for good this time.
Not sure if there is a health risk - just a heads up to all and sundry to do research before copying anyone - whether they're 92 or just frugal & dumb like me!
Keeping healthy is way more important than anyone can imagine.
Edit: I do have dozens of health problems - and I do mean dozens...
