You had cash? Must not be "on zero" yet! You coulda bought BTC instead. Then, you'd have a much harder time paying the school bus fee. Heck, you might even have to buy fiat with sats and pay exchange fees, and onchain/lightning fees, and taxes just to pay the bus fee. Suddenly, making your kids walk to school doesn't seem so bad... tell them it builds character!
Wealthy people aren't just good at saving, they're also good at spending such that it affords them the wealthy life they enjoy living.
Give me enough time and I can put together a series of backwards-looking trades that would have outperformed BTC in the same timeframe.
Hindsight is 2020, woulda, coulda, shoulda...
BTC is your bias, other people might hear how much you spent on BTC and think to themselves, "damn, if only stack_harder had put those fiat dollars toward a down payment on a ranch in the midwest, he could have so many cows and a huge estate to enjoy with his family. But he'd rather gawk with his internet friends about BTC. Poor guy..."
Just recognize that you know whats best for you, and no one else.
yeah, i live in Bulgaria and cash is still very common, not only that, there isn't even an option to pay for the bus online or with a card, cash only lol
i always feel worse psychologically when handing over physical money
but you're right, if normies were to learn i was spending money on btc they would think it was a waste, although i could deliver a ngu chart slap down if required lol

Cash common almost everywhere. Its one of the only ways to transact freely (as in no txn fees)
