I was watching House Hunters on HGTV This couple was boyfriend and girlfriend buying a hous They had NEVER lived together before Said they want to buy a house to test it out They couldn't just rent an apartment first? Buying a house together before marriage is a red flag 🚩

We spend $500 on groceries per month Cook most our meals at home Don't order drinks or appetizers when we go out Drive a car with good gas mileage Costs only $30 to fill the gas tank And $80/month for insurance Mow the lawn & shovel the snow myself Inflation is personal 💸

My parents asked me about Bitcoin yesterday Sounds like they have FOMO They're retired in their 60s and have $250k sitting in cash Here's what they are considering: Put the $250k in a 10 year CD earning 4.5% OR Put the $250k into Bitcoin What should I tell them to do? 🤔

Question for the Bitcoin crowd: Why do you assume I save my dollars? Agreed that inflation robs my purchasing power That's why I deploy my cash into real estate & index funds These assets benefit from inflation Saving in Bitcoin can be good But so can owning other assets 🤷🏻

My wife gets a pension at work 🤑 Every year she works her pension grows larger Right now she's vested in a $2,000/month benefit This kicks in at age 65 and is good for life If l outlive my wife I get a survivor benefit I've never included this in our net worth Should we?

I've been buying real estate since 2014 I've been buying index funds since 2015 I've been buying Bitcoin since 2020 Every one of these decisions has increased my net worth📈 Investing isn't one size fits all Personal finance is personal Just keep buying & just keep holding

Bitcoin has LOTS of merit & value It's the hardest money ever That's why I like it & own some I don't care what you do with YOUR money But don't try & force others to buy Repeat the same old phrases Attack others if they don't get it And wonder why most remain skeptical 🤦🏻‍♂️

Dear Bitcoin crowd, I'm close to getting monetized on X I pledged to put all my ad revenue into BTC I'm a man of my word If you care about BTC, keep telling me to have fun staying poor on my posts Even though l'm already a millionaire 😂 Your friend, The Rational Bitcoiner

Question for the Bitcoin crowd: Should you stop telling people to study more? It may not inspire action People know they should eat better & exercise Yet 42% of U.S. adults are obese It's not always due to a lack of understanding Human psychology & behavior is complex 🧠
