This is my favorite interview I've done with @Lyn Alden. We cover her new book, Broken Money, on a deeper but easy to understand level, focusing on themes I didn't hear covered in other recent interviews. Topics we discuss: • Are we in the Fourth Turning? • Why are workers making 300x less than CEOs today? • How did wealth inequality and living standards in the era of 'free banking' compare to the wealth inquality we see under central banking? Is QE to blame? • Could U.S. losing reserve currency status be a good thing? • Will there be credit on a #Bitcoin  standard? • Are there any good ideas in #crypto? • Macro and market update for fall 2023

Everyone has a story. A few weeks ago I put out a call for people around the world willing to share their #Bitcoin stories. I was surprised by the amount of responses! Starting today I will be sharing at least one of them each month on my show. In this month's Bitcoin story, meet Marc Mantini (@ScartownSparks on X) who recently moved with his wife to #Bitcoin Island in the #Philippines to live on the Bitcoin Standard. He first learned about BTC in 2016 and is passionate about the mission to protect personal and economic freedom. Marc is a former government worker from Toronto, Canada who was terminated over mandates -- but he successfully fought back against the system. He is a freedom fighter who is now working on a grassroots level to help the people on Boracay Island adopt Bitcoin. Say hello to him if you can! youtu.be/Ht_LIDjzWzM

This week I had the chance to bring my friend @Susiebdds on the show. If you don't follow her...you're missing out on interacting with one of the funniest and sweetest people in this community. Our talk: youtu.be/Okdkdz1iWDM Susie's story is fascinating. She found great success in the dentistry business with her husband, raised four children, and began learning about/buying #Bitcoin in 2019 thanks to her 17-year-old son. Fast forward just a few years and she ended up selling her home and business and leaving the 'trappings' of a successful fiat life to retire in Hawaii and keep buying #Bitcoin . She also started a medical clinic in El Salvador that is looking for volunteers. Susie, you are an inspiration!
