The average person doesn’t understand inflation / basic math.

[guest]

It’s just my opinion, if it sounds like I’m acting the arbiter of truth I’m sorry and I’m not. I personally avoid it and have no faith in it anymore.

I invested a lot into it (for me) - I spent thousands of hours pouring over the Bitcoin forum for the technical overview of it, I love the code, I love the concept. It’s beautiful.

I’m pretty sure Adam Back is Satoshi and I like his company blockstream and looked into their mining tokens as an investment but couldn’t afford it.

Edit / one of my best friends made 100+ k in bitcoin, his younger brother made more and bought a house in Seattle in cash before he was 25. I love when people navigate it successfully. Most will go bankrupt, though.

maybe we got off on the wrong foot....

$10,000 in 1980 has the same buying power of $37,027.79 today, funsters.

And these poorcel funsters want to raise inflation to pay their student loans for worthless degrees. Student debt needs interest rates that cripples all these retards. I paid my University of Mass tuition back years ago.

I think the worst part is that, I think, people with worthless 200k degrees come from more affluent backgrounds than the middle class guys who's taxes are gonna pay for those degrees. Its maddening

The scam lies in the fact that a small, anointed group of people are able to create unbacked fiat money out of thin air (and thus creating inflation) and destroying the savings of responsible people who don't over-leverage themselves. The people who benefit most from new money creation are the ones closest to the printer, everyone else gets inflation. Not to mention saddling future generations with a public debt burden that they wont be able to pay down, which leads to a rapid decline of living standards. These days having a good job and a savings account aren't enough, you have to (((invest))) your savings unless you want to watch them erode in real time. You're basically forced to earn your money twice, and that's if you're lucky enough to have money left over to save in the first place. Bitcoin came into play because it has a fixed inflation schedule and can't be arbitrarily inflated by special interests, along with having other properties like an immutable public ledger, ease of transferability, relatively quick finality, censorship resistance, permissionlessness, not easily confiscatable etc etc etc

I hear you and I’m not trying to be a banking simp because I generally agree that the endless money printing has destroyed the financial backbone of this country and it was done through public debt. Unfortunately the train has left the station on that one.

My fever dream is for the country to go back to the gold standard.

College is about specialization, yet they want all these other credits for something that you're not trying to get a job in. That's where they jew you for additional costs when you've already past HS which is a wider net of education and college shouldn't be the same thing but you pay for it.

College is not about specialization. It is about 'liberal arts' and general education. You are meant to spend 4-6 of your life getting knowledge like "safe butt sex" or "black lives matter" or "Jesus didn't even exist". Even trade schools are forcing people into indoctrination over things that have nothing to do with the skills you are trying to learn.

Imagine going to school to learn to be an electrician or a veterinarian but being forced to take 'gender studies' and 'queer art theory' for three or four straight years or not graduate. This is where nearly every single school is now. You cannot avoid it. And these are $50K a year schools that are totally overrun with kikes and communists and psychotic nigger professors. Low level public education has nothing anymore that is actually about learning and becoming intelligent or skilled.

I think at this point (at least) some high school or colleges are teaching students to not be an asshole on social media since it can hurt your career. I know they were teaching that to college football players to not share so much online because it can come back to haunt you which is something new but very important

You can get a six figure a year job at any top sports university doing nothing but scrubbing gang behavior and date rape evidence from Jamal's and Matumbo's instagram accounts. After that whole Mantei Teo thing the universities are heavily trying to control the lives of their dumb mongrel 'student' athletes. They pay people to literally sit at a computer all day and scroll through reddit or facebook that say anything negative about the football program.
