Not filing taxes from 2020 onwards
Relocating from 2025 to keep being off the radar
Ditching most belongings
Dealing with most family thinking you're insane
Happily eating like a peasant most days
Spending hundreds of hours to decide spending gold instead of Bitcoin
Selling off most of my camera gear
Running old laptops until the literally disintegrate
Focusing only on earning sats here, on Nostr and similar
Skipping meetups and such due to cost an social friction
Staying dark for as many years as possible
Planning for any eventuality from 2025 onwards, after launch
Constantly analyzing what went wrong at all forks in the road previously
Extracting as much learning on practical freedom from the above as possible
Building as much resolve for whatever as is humanly possible
Gradually ignoring most content that is not my own
Planning for the phase when things get less constrained, but never counting on it
Learning a lot from our dog and ~2 dozen cats, especially the dead ones
Writing bits & pieces about all of these things, gradually publishing for sats
Preparing the largest fucking told you so for decades for later use
That's at least part of it! ;-)
What do you mean by ”staying dark for as many years as possible " ?
reply
Can't comment ;-)
Just walking away works very well, not more complicated than that really!
reply
Eh?? But what is "staying dark" ? I don't know what you're talking about.lol
reply
Walk away from that phone! Or laptop, PC, or whatever!
Oh, and also your job, company or anything that keeps you in the Beast Machine...
Its doable, with gold, cash & strong will! ;-)
reply
Ahh right thanks for explaining yourself ;-)

I won't mention the countries that I'm dealing with for obvious reasons, but they're far more benevolent than the US, with the IRS and so on...
So it was doable to simply ignore it all after 2020 hit until now, that certainly does wonder to the databases, their shitty lists or whatever goes on in the dark!
Not that I ever gave the fuckers much data to work with in the first place hahaha

Yes i have been on living on the outside kind of in the outside if the beast system for the past 3 and half years, nomading around. Recently moved to another country with much less oversight, lower tax, cash economy. But i still need to earn to live, eat etc. I'm working on that being outside the system. Don't want to go back into it.
reply
Would be great to have a chat about all of that! :-)
I might need to plug into some fiat revenue soon, but it will be lower on the list than Bitcoin, cash & gold hehe
You have so many cool examples! I’m working on ditching my belongings nowadays
reply
Ditch what no longer serves you and does not resonate but don't get rid of things you need and will serve you in the future.
reply
Thanks, but ultimately it was about one thing only: survival...
Oh well, now at least I can take the fight to the enemy!
