The Forces of Good, and the Forces of Evil, Fight Over Your Pocketbook.

I find it interesting that the forces driving money seem to be moving it in the direction of more fake.

Let me explain that.

What most people believe about money is completely fake. It has no intrinsic value. It could be worthless tomorrow. However, today, everyone believes it has worth. More worth than a bar of silver offered, on a street corner, in front of a camera. "Do you want this 'bar of metal' or this $20 bill? Everyone takes the bill."

When you actually learn about currencies, bonds, money printing, taxes, inflation… then you realize how fake your world view was. Modern fiat currency has none of the properties that we learned growing up.

  • "It's safe as money in the bank"
  • "money is an indicator of how much you have given to the world"
  • "cash will never let you down"

but, the reality with fiat currency is

  • your money is losing purchasing power just sitting there.
  • The money in the bank isn't yours, it is the bank's money, you gave it to them.
  • The way to make money is to be closer to the money spigot.

"Cash is Trash" - Robert Kiyosaki

But, think about it. Bitcoin is what people have been describing as money, with all the attributes of these old sayings.

Or, the fake is becoming real.
That is, unless Dr. Evil above gets his way.

What Dr. Evil wants

Dr. Evil wants you to work as hard as possible, and to feel like you are just getting by. He wants you to believe that your foundation is solid, when it is just built out of promises. He wants complete control over your life, so that you will always do his bidding.

And to do that, T.H.E.Y. have turned the world upside-down. What is real was made fake, what was fake, was called real.

We have celebrities trying to tell you what is real. "I play a doctor on TV, so listen to my medical advice" When they are known to be the least in touch group of people outside of a mental institution. (this may be incorrect)

And our dollars are losing value by the day, but ignore that, we have a STRONG economy. The guy on the box told me so.

The paper dollar is the perfect evil invention. You can steal people's money, from right out of their pocket, and when they realize they have been robbed, the blame the stores and corporations.

That is, until CBDCs.

Which will allow the banksters to apply negative interest rates. Expiration dates, spend your money now. Do not save it. Because tomorrow it will be gone. And they can turn off your money if they deem you a bad person.

Everything that is evil about our current monetary system, now with even more evil!

What Bitcoin offers

Bitcoin flips the world right-side-up

It makes what was fake, back into real.


Today, if you leave money in the bank, it isn't safe (the bank is guaranteed to steal it) and it is losing value every day.

The best thing to do with bitcoin is leave it in the bank on the blockchain. There is nothing better and safer to do with your bitcoin.


Today you need to put your money into high risk investments to barely keep up with real inflation.

Bitcoin is deflationary and outpaces inflation brought about by the current debt system. And will become more valuable as more value is created in the world.


Today you are almost required to use the most risky form of payment ever created. The credit card. (you never see the risk, you are "insured", but every merchant does. They pay a lot for you to use your CC.

Bitcoin, and other crypto, are the safest money transfer we have ever created. You can see you sent it, the vendor can see they received it, and the dishonest cashier can't do anything with the numbers they were given.


Bitcoin just makes everything right again.

Once we get into the bitcoin world, we will see just how bad the fiat currency, debt & death paradigm was.

If we get trapped in the CBDC world, we will never know freedom again. And this is probably an understatement.

It is really interesting how opposite these two worlds are.

We crypto people often argue how much better crypto is than fiat currency, but we rarely discuss the ramifications of crypto on every other part of life. It is a huge change from thinking/talking about investing in stocks and the opposite idea of leaving money in the bank. But, when you talk about imaginary stocks, that you never really own, vs bitcoin on the block chain, this is a whole different question.

Bitcoin will probably also change us from a consumer economy back to a saving economy.

Change from cheap, crappy, throw away goods, to long lasting, durable, money well spent goods.

All the forces in the world change from destructive to constructive. (not quite, but a it really does start here, and spreads through the rest of our lives)

Too many people don't understand that fiat money and the government behind is a faith based belief system no different from any religion. Their faith in this system is proportional to the illusion of control they have over it through politicians.

The only thing that has saved the dollar so far is that there is no where else to run to.

Bitcoin isn't big enough (yet) to handle world trade.

Bitcoin isn't even big even enough to handle drug trade. (how funny they try to conflate the two)

Along with that belief in the "dollar" is the belief that that is your money in the bank.
