Work is stressful occasionally but I can take it. I mean, it pays the bill and I didn't expect it to be not stressful. Think it depends more on the company culture than HK. It's an American company, so quite a diverse workforce.
I don't really like living here as such, the language barrier is a part of it, and people in general seem quite shallow. Cannot really hold a conversation, and refuse much interaction without local language. But I an new here as well (6 ish months) so maybe it will change. Also, the food does not really agree with my bud.
Kowloon bay is an interesting area, have not explored though. Happy to know you moved out, hope you are happy wherever you are.
Totally agree, travel is overrated as a metric or measure to build worldview or cultural tolerance.
I am an expatriate living in Hong Kong, and cannot stand it. Most locals are loud, uncouth, can barely speak any English at all, and I do not find anything worth exploring in terms of culture. But I like the low tax, my decent paycheque and relative economic freedom (to stack satoshis without capital gains taxes or KYC).
Travel is not what it is touted to be in most of western media.
A great thing for on-chain stackers like me, I guess? I can almost guarantee a massive rug pull in the next 50 years.
If you and your family ate not too close to the conflict zone, you should not be scared.
I would suppose the overpopulation is a reason, especially in that part of the world.
If the end of dollar dominance bring a crisis of trust, then any private, non political actor would be a moron to trust the PBoC, ECB or the BoE more than the Federal reserve.
Trezor one. Already own one.
Anything else is an unnecessary distraction and a potential Bull's eye. First rule of Bitcoin, don't talk about it.
You know bitcoin owners (maybe they flaunted a bit too much) have been kidnapped for keys, right?
I see it as darwinism of coins. Let it okay out and the chips fall, the strongest one (likely, Bitcoin) will emerge.
If you think it holds back Bitcoin awareness, that is an opportunity for me, as I could not be one of the early adopters, which I regret. I don't want more Bitcoin awareness among the masses before I stacked my sats.
I just ask those sorts some simple questions.
Will you go hungry today if groceries are cheaper next year (as it would be, on deflationary money)?
Will you stay homeless today if housing gets cheaper next year?
Will you send your kids to school once they turn 20 rather than at 2, because schools will be cheaper?
What exactly will you not buy that will be cheaper?
Usually, those keynesians fall silent.
How do you get people buying bitcoin so fast in Spain/anywhere? I mean both on ramp and off ramp seem very cumbersome to me to be honest. Any link on how to use the bot?
I don't understand the question. I consider myself a bitcoiner because I stack sats. But what does being in D.C have to do with it?
I mean you do activities that you like and can afford? I love to visit the national archives when I am in DC. But I think they allow non Bitcoiners as well, is that a deal breaker?
