Meeting Bitcoiners in real life is the best. H/t you know who you are I was humbled to be a part of your first ever <undisclosed location> meetup.

We have 2 beautiful, smart, whitty funny little boys. My wife desperately wanted more. A little girl to round out the family. I always said no because I didn’t think we could afford it. I worried about sacrificing too much to provide for another. I worried about schooling, I worried about travel, I worried about having an affordable and comfortable lifestyle for all of us. I had a fiat mindset, because I didn’t know any different. I didn’t realise there was a solution that would enable everything we wanted through hard work and time preference. Now, I fear we have left it too late to safely go after what we want due to age. Fiat robbed me and my family of something truly beautiful and I will never forgive or forget.

Digging these up again for a friend. Some May be interested. They were written back in 21 but should still be relevant, unless they changed energy on is. Part I https://dazbe4.medium.com/energy-and-electricity-for-plebs-plebucation-for-bitcoiners-1-basics-and-mining-f653c2cc9b65

Sing along: Hello liquidity my old friend…. It’s time to pump my bags again… Because the money starts to flow freely… They print it out of thin air daily And the assets are first to see these flows, and everyone knows Wage earners get fucked….through inflation…

Nostr/Primal noob…. My notifications and DMs are super super slow to load. Do I need more relay connections?

I just watched Margin Call for the first time while on a flight. I had never before experienced such a feeling of the inevitably of the plane crashing. I feel deeply disturbed right now. The really scary thing is you know this sort of shit goes on each and every day, that there is another inevitable cataclysmic event on the horizon and that 99% of people have no fucking clue what’s coming. Brave for impact…… #bitcoin

It’s gonna be cool to tell your kids you used Nostr when you had to upload media to a website and paste the URL. We’ve come a long way…

Quite simply fucking brilliant. Thank you so much @Bitcoin Embroiderer and @btcdentistaus bitcoindentist.com.au I absolutely love it. Give them both a follow. Solid Bitcoiners with great Bitcoin businesses.

Remember when your government stopped you taking your kid to the cafe to have a milkshake, because you didn’t want to take a trial medical procedure with significant evidence to suggest it was neither safe nor effective? Yeah those were fun times.

In my citadel I’ll have an openly available learning environment where I’ll teach anyone who wants to learn about electronics, microcontrollers, servos, circuits, building guitar effects pedals, robotics, electrical theory and engineering. I’ll also hold guitar lessons and then I’ll play at the community bbq @Brisket'S place on Friday nights. What will I find in your citadel?

Over 1/3 of my time was robbed from me last year. They call it tax. This was even after the legitimate and legal deductions I made within the framework of their system. I still get a letter saying I claim “more than is usual for a person of my employment and they will be watching my returns closely this year” and “I better have all my receipts ready”. Criminals.

GM What a glorious day. For we are truly blessed. 🧡

There’s a definite shift in language and positioning in these two responses. You compare and call me crazy.

I’ve read a lot of investing books, I lost count around the 60 mark… And I’ve got to say, one of the best books I ever read was circa 2019 for me and it was written by none other than @preston It was called the Warren Buffet Accounting Book. It was one of the most comprehensive books to lay out a value investing framework aswell as the authors best estimate on what Discounted Cash Flow model the great investor Warren Buffet may deploy when valuing a stock. @preston rarely talks about his books but having written a book myself, I deeply respect the hustle this gentleman has put into everything he touches. He taught me much more about myself than he taught me about investing. It was this DCF modelling that eventually lead me to realise just how drastically overvalued EVERYTHING was and what ultimately lead me down the rabbit hole to learn about money. Forever grateful to you sir. Needless to say my new hurdle rate is much higher than the “risk free rate of return” I was comparing against in 2019. Onwards

NOSTR might be the final incentive to read posts before hitting send. No edit, no delete. Not good for someone who can barely string a sentence together. And remember, grammar and punctuation is important folks… It’s the difference between helping your uncle, Jack, off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse.

The world is waking up every where you look. In every issue from forever wars to the food pyramid to our money. Incentives matter and we discover perverse incentives each and every day. It is fucking glorious and I am here for it.

Just picked up a new rig for picking up gigs on the road. A Yamaha stagepas 1k. Set it up today and had a strum. Impressive bit of kit. In fact I like it better then my old rig (msr400s) and think I might be able to ditch my xr12 mixer too. I’ll probably downsize my pedal board too. Even better, it actually fits under the kids bunk bed in the van. Income stream #1 sorted with life-in-the-road

Happy Father’s Day to all the Aussie dads out there. The hustle is noticed and appreciated by all those around you. It’s traditionally our job to provide and to protect. Society is bastardising masculinity and downplaying the role of strong men in the family unit. To them I say “fuck you”. We work hard, we provide and we protect and to me there is no finer duty or purpose. It is what I was put on this earth to do.

Makes you wonder. View quoted note →

Just enrolled the kids in this curriculum for next year.

Fully flexible based off Australia Curriculum. From the research we (read:wifey) did this gives us a nice framework to make sure we are ticking off a few boxes while giving us the flexibility to opt into and out of the parts of the curriculum that either don’t resonate with us, can otherwise be covered off or whatever justification we can think of. Can’t wait to start this journey with the kids on the road, I’m really looking forward to having the time to be involved in their learning H/t @Daniel Prince
