You got a 3% raise and everything went up 3-7%. That’s not a raise. That’s your money standing still or depreciating while you work harder.
We don’t need to understand everything about Bitcoin.
We just need to understand why nobody can make more of it.
This itself is the real financial intelligence.

In 1971, the median household income was $9,030, or 220 ounces of gold.
In 2025, it was $87,460, or just 25 ounces of gold.
Your paycheck went up 10x.
Measured in gold, it fell 88%.
To earn what the median household earned in 1971, you’d need about $890,000 per year today.
That’s what fiat debasement looks like.
Financial independence is not about never working.
Don’t mistake the fisherman’s story for a retirement fantasy.
It is about having the freedom to say no to the wrong job, the wrong client, and the wrong deal, and yes to meaningful work, proper healthcare, and a safe home.

A company can issue more shares. A board can fire its CEO. A government can print.
Bitcoin can do none of the three.
Refusing Bitcoin because “I can’t afford a whole Bitcoin” is like refusing gold because you can’t afford a bar.
It divides into 100 million pieces. Start with one satoshi.
“Store of value" just means: will this buy the same thing in 20 years?
For cash, the answer has been no for a century.
Schools spend twelve years teaching us how to earn money by working for others but never taught us how to keep it without losing its value.
Volatility hurts because we watch it happen.
Inflation doesn't hurt because we don't see it.
But in fact, only one of them is actually taking our money.
Our money isn't in the bank. It's been lent to someone else. And its value depreciate faster than our salary raise.
To me, saving for retirement in money that loses roughly half its value every 20-25 years is a foolish plan.
The dollar's supply gets decided next month.
Bitcoin's supply in 2140 is already known.
Choose the right money that you can plan around.
Most people track Bitcoin's price in money.
After learning about Bitcoin, I start tracking money's price in Bitcoin.
Different question, completely different behaviour.
Bitcoin didn't just make me want more money, it also made me want to keep the money I already had.
Nobody warned me about that part before.
Money has one job: hold value until we need it.
But the dollar quietly quit that job.
Choose Bitcoin.
Every money in history requires trusting someone not to print more.
Bitcoin is the first that doesn't require the trust.
People spend more time choosing a TV, a car, and a pair of shoes than choosing where their retirement money sits.
Our salary is the rent someone pays for our time.
Our savings are how much of it we've bought back.
Make sure we save in the right money.
