The money is broken.

The money that you've been saving,

whether you're working with downloads

or if you're a doctor somewhere,

it should save that value over time and it doesn't.

So people can't get ahead.

We know they've broken money.

If it's sand slipping through your fingers,

you're trying to find any way you can to get more of it

because there's too much month.

At the end of your money, the bills keep going up,

the food keeps getting higher,

and you can't figure out a way.

Eventually, every single person has that breaking point

where they can't get ahead anymore,

can't have honest society from a dishonest money

or you can't have good fruit from the bad tree.

You shouldn't have to get in debt

and get into bondage or rest of your life

in order to get a mortgage.

So it's a symptom that the money is broken.

I should be telling you the warning signs.

Hey, the money's broken, something's broken here.

Why do we keep having to do this?

Because we don't have a money

that we can just store time energy in,

you're forced to go gamble.

You're forced to go into the stock market and be a gambler

and go to the crypto casino

and go to all the old coins and all these things

and just go gamble your life away.

It's a wildest sideop we've ever seen as human beings.

My favorite thing about Bitcoin

is that it completely changes your worldview

on everything.

It's a closed network with infinite potential.

Your time and energy on Earth are finite.

Your time here, none of us know how long we have

and when we're gonna go

and we don't know when we're gonna be here

and we don't know when we're gonna leave.

And so we make this trade

as we're like a Charlie Munger or Warren Buffett.

You would love to have been able to ask them

some of these things.

Cause an investor, especially a value investor,

should get this.

Like why would I trade my finite time

for an infinite piece of paper?

That makes no sense.

That's a terrible trade.

And a very easy fundamental investor

should be able to understand that trade.

And the only finite thing we have

that's comparable to our time and energy is Bitcoin.

If you're putting your finite time and energy

into an inflationary container

which would be a container or bucket with a hole in it

which is inflation

and your time and energy is leaking out to side,

you go work, you put your paycheck into this container

and it just leaks out at night while you're sleeping

and then you get up in the morning

and you have to do it all over again

and then there's too much month at the end of your money.

You have to keep doing it.

Well, guess what?

We call that the rat race.

That's the hamster wheel.

And that average person never gets off that hamster wheel

to keep making a straight finite for infinite.

And then they're getting mad.

Every day you have a chance to opt into a system

that doesn't steal from you

and that can't be taken from you

and doesn't inflate away from you.

And that is priceless.

There is no amount of fiat or dollars

you can put on that system.

And that's what I think people are going to continue

realizing all you have to do is save

and money that doesn't steal from you

and be a little patient

to provide value for society and be patient

and stack sats in a money that cannot be stolen from you.

Let's say they cannot be stolen from you in Cold Storage.

Now we have the white paper itself,

which gives the bill of rights in the constitution

in a sense property rights to all eight billion citizens.

All I gotta do is fire up their Cold Storage wall phone

or a computer or whatever

and they get those property rights

that only Americans really had inside the walls of America.

So now you have that if you're in Vietnam

or you're in Russia or whatever in Europe,

somewhere Africa, you have those same property rights

that can't be taken away from you.

And that's the killer app that we have now as humans

where you have that ability.

You don't just have to come across the ocean,

fly across the ocean to get into America.

You can now have this world by having your 12

or 24 word seed phrase

and that's what the white paper was.

It was basically the 2.0 version of the bill of rights

in the constitution.

That's the beauty of Bitcoin that the Trojan horse

is that once you have this money

that can't be stolen from you,

you won't feel the need to go make some ridiculous

alt coins spend your time away from your family,

screwing around with this thing

because you're trying to get ahead.

We are a noble thing trying to get ahead for your family,

but you won't need to do it.

You can spend time with your family actually.

Go touch your breath to really accept Bitcoin.

Not just understand but accept it.

You have to basically say a lot of my life was a lie basically.

Like a lot of my life was based off of a lie

and that's very hard.

Money was around before governments

and money will be here after governments.

That should be a wake up call to the average person.

Like governments aren't here.

They don't give us money.

They only take money from us.

If you have the political construct,

political world,

and so you have to have a bunch of hot air,

a bunch of politics to then justify

and support a fake fiat currency.

Bitcoin, it is money.

Money converges to one.

Bitcoin will do an accounting for all of that money,

all of that value in the world at some point.

Could be 50 years from now or 30 or 20

or could be 100 years from now.

But that will happen in my eyes.

It's okay to accept the fact that we were alive

during one of the maybe one of the great discoveries

of all humanity.

It's okay to say, yes, I'm worthy of that.
