Two years ago I talked to my wife's nephew about being bitcoin only and also gave him advice on how to start a fitness coach/trainer business he wanted to start. His dad had wanted him to follow in his footsteps and be a firefighter but he didn't want that life.

He is in his early 20s and he had been trading nfts and shitcoins during the last bull and crash. I thought I got through to him as to why that was stupid and he should focus on working hard, building his business and saving in bitcoin. I even told him if he wanted to start up his business I would give him the capital to get it off the ground (not a ton of money but corporation registration, logo design, basic marketing materials).

He and his GF moved into my father in-laws house after my mother in-law passed away. It was supposed to be a mutually beneficial arrangement, where my father in law who has some chronic health issues would have someone around so he could stay in the home and my wife's nephew and GF would have a place to stay rent free if they were willing to help my father in law out with some cooking, cleaning, take him to run errands etc.

Now today I find out from my wife who is in Texas to help look after her dad after a major surgery, that they need to kick her nephew and his GF out of the house because he has been stealing her dad's money and credit cards and degen gambling on crypto and sports. Sad just sad.

Nothing irritates me more than people who squander good opportunities and the kindness of others to instead make perpetually stupid, selfish decisions.

That's my rant. Don't shitcoin folks.

Ideas are like syringes. It doesn't matter how big or elaborate it is. It exists to pull blood and it's useless if you can't find a vein.

It's been a fun day. Very busy, but then spent the evening with friends and really enjoyed it.

Howdy!

Hump day, busy fiat week, day dreaming in my Bitcoin standard world!

Never really been into it, but started swimming in the open sea to start off the day. My own 100 to 100k (100mins in the water).

Only a few days in and it’s doing wonders for my energy & posture.

GM you legends

Hump day!

Entered into the Open Design Challenge #4 (Turn a western movie poster into a Bitcoin learning device):

After a long hard day of work, I took my waste papers and made a detour to the recycling machine near my house. Earned 5 cents that would go towards my son’s college fund.

Life is tough, but I’m tougher. Clawing towards my financial target, literally one cent at a time.

Mid-week drag….

Bitcoin fixes this

Running out of the soap that I bought from eastern Turkey, so I cracked two eggs and mixed them with honey to wash my hair, nomad hack of problem-solving! my hair is so soft and shining:)

I think I'm gonna do an experiment of no soap for a while - I've stopped using any shampoo for about two years, and definitely no conditioner, it's insane to put so many chemicals in your body. 🤔

am I the only one thinks riding a horse is way cooler than driving a car?

you need to have real skills and a fit body to ride horses, yet all you need to do is SIT there when driving a car ; no wonder modern men getting weaker and weaker, even with a beer belly - will Bitcoin fix this? 👀
