From career change thread:
"Most real jobs suck, all jobs are a trade-off of time for money and everyone has to decide what their time is worth." -Bunion
What's the point of trading your time for money when others can print it for free? This is the entire reason Bitcoin has value.

No. They're highly centralized and controlled by malevolent characters.

No, I am saying the opposite. The way BTC is created is via proof of work (equipment and electricity) and nobody can create more with CTRL + P. Originally Posted by Bunion 2020

Except Bitcoin Cash is, like, identical, it came from the same place. At one time it was Bitcoin. Originally Posted by stalefish3169

But now it is worth less, because people have decided it is worth less. And it is bad because of the people who own it, I guess, even though these original owners were the Bitcoin owners.
Anyway, Bitcoin was literally created out of nothing. It can be recreated out of nothing. It is not worth what it is because it can not be recreated, only because people have decided that THIS is the one...

Oooh, dollars can be created out of THIN AIR.
Yeah, they are not an investment. Do not invest in dollars. Use your dollars to buy investments, like stocks, or bonds, or TIPS (if you want safe, but are worried about the potential of monetizing the debt).

Purchasing power of BTC is trending up. Purchasing power of dollars is trending down. You may not like it, but accept it. Originally Posted by Bunion 2020

That was not the question or your supposition.
And here is a thought, maybe just stop quoting me from other threads and I will not bother you while you jerk off over BTC.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

Fuckoff. I have found that working is a solution. You know, getting a job..... You should try it.
The average annual inflation rate in the US between 1913 and 2019 was 3.10%.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

Also, avg inflation and inflation on the things we actually use are 2 different numbers. Feels good to hide behind cherry picked numbers but the real world is another thing.

Bunion is quoting 100 yr avg inflation rates.
Bunions answer for defending capital is to work more. Genius.

Buddy, I have said repeatedly that I hope you make a fortune.
Why do you care if I am invested or not?
Sounds fishy to me. Cultlike even.
Best of luck.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.
