Fun story: I have been experimenting with living on Bitcoin for the past month. It really changes your mindset on spending 🤔
Because I am living in one of the highest inflation countries, things are getting cheaper and cheaper, but I ended up spending more, weird right? But once I switched living on Bitcoin, I was like, damn, I do not want to spend my Bitcoin on useless things.
That's really cool, what has been your main tools for living on Bitcoin and what has been the hardest part?
reply
The hardest part is realizing what I really need.
e.g., I have learned that I don't need and should not eat out all the time; Home cook meal is way better
I don't need to use so much makeup other than a healthy diet and 8 hours of sleep, peace of mind, etc.
Tools wise:
I realized most software that I am using is already accepting Bitcoin. If not, I changed to the ones who accepted.
For daily spending, I use Bitrefill mostly ( it solves lots of problems! ) or try to pay people directly with Bitcoin ( I even teach my dentist how to accept Bitcoin 🤓️
