at this rate, about 10 hours a day for about a year to accumulate 1 bitcoin is still a very nice option for retirement. not gonna see it ever again.
Highly compensated people on the chopping block next physicians/attorneys/real estate investors, etc…… All their incomes are going to zero against #Bitcoin…….

That's a lot of work for just one single coin. It would also be interesting to compare the line for the average U.S. wage.

Must be pre-tax dollars… it’d take at least 30% longer in reality…

Nice concept. Man hours are the thing that has increased but has a very narrow cap. Laziness also has increased and it has no bottom. So the more man hours you are willing to do the more likely you are going to own Bitcoin.
Hal Finney once lamented that he turned off his miner too much because it made his laptop run hot. Everyone is later than they wish they could be. And we're all early as fuck.
By then you'd missed out on the faucets, and it was up to around a whole dollar just for some magic internet money though.

They say "money doesn’t buy time." Sound money does.
I always tell people to ignore the price and keep stacking sats especially if they don't have any. Looking at the price action daily will drive people crazy and cause some to make poor decisions.
I feel pretty lucky where I'm at too, but it's hard to say that it wasn't missing out on SOMETHING to have missed out on buying 20 BTC for $1... It was a real pain in the ass to move money to exchanges at that time to buy in the first place though, especially if you didn't have a checking account at the time, which was the boat I was in. I had $20 worth of linden dollars on secondlife I was going to buy BTC with at that point, just to play with the new project. Never did get around to moving it though, so it's still just $20, rather than 400 BTC...
Need this kind of chart, but inverted for how much Bitcoin a lifetime of wages buys (assuming a cap of about 100,000 hours), and then do it with a transition to spends over time.
