1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: You don't appreciate bitcoin until you really need it. 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 2: You get it at the price you deserve. 3 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: I think capitalism has been bastardized in many ways. More 4 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,960 Speaker 1: and more people, especially the younger generations, feel that the 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: American dream is dead and no longer within reach. You 6 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: have to have a form of capital, form of savings 7 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: that actually goes up in value and doesn't get crushed 8 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: by things that are out of your control. I also wish, 9 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: honestly that we had more people in elected offices who 10 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: have been business leaders as opposed to just in public 11 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: office as a career. 12 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 3: How do you think bitcoin can help renew or fix 13 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,840 Speaker 3: the American dream? What does that American dream mean to you? Yeah? 14 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 2: I think. 15 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 3: I want to know from a family escaping communist Poland, 16 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 3: coming to the United States, working your way all the 17 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 3: way up to like a top for a lot of people, 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 3: like an Emmy Award winning journalist, leaving that and then 19 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: deciding to start in the bitcoin space. What was the 20 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: big aha that made you want to lead mainstream start 21 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 3: working in the bitcoin space. 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: Well, I sort of consider myself an accidental entrepreneur. I 23 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: didn't really set out to run my own media platform 24 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: when I started my podcast. I was just really genuinely 25 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: curious about bitcoin, and I thought it was the solution 26 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: to a lot of the problems that I was reporting on. 27 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: For me, I think I had a pain point and 28 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: a seed planted because of my family's experience. So I 29 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: grew up like the child of so many immigrants, where 30 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: my family worked so hard and waited so long to 31 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: be able to come to the United States, and they 32 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: were fleeing communism. That's they were brought up under communism, 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: where all the stories I've heard was just about you know, scarcity. 34 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: There was no sense of economic hope or economic mobility. 35 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: You could have money and still not be able to 36 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: buy anything because the shelves would be empty because there 37 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: was always just scarcity in terms of goods when all 38 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: the resources were allocated and controlled by the government. And 39 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: the hope part really resonated with me in the sense 40 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: that my mom just dreamt of America because it represented hope, 41 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: it represented freedom, and so they waited so many decades 42 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: to be able to come. And then when we moved, 43 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: you know, my mom did something interesting. She chose a 44 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: upper middle class community where a lot of the kids 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: that I went to school with, they were much better 46 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: off than me, and she did that because the schools 47 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: were better in that area, right. But it was not 48 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: the easiest upbringing because instead of a peer group where 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: everybody's sort of in the same boat, you know, maybe 50 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: everybody's family is struggling. I felt like I was the 51 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: poor kid, and it was challenging, but also I guess 52 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: I'm grateful for it now because it lit a fire 53 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: under me. I thought, wow, look, what's possible. You know, 54 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: these kids live in these beautiful homes. Oftentimes it was 55 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: a one income home where the mom didn't have to work. 56 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: She was a stay at home mom, cooked great meals 57 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: and with my parents, both of them were working. My 58 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: dad would be getting up at like four o'clock in 59 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: the morning to scrape the no off the car outside 60 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: of Chicago, And I thought, wow, you're wealthy if you 61 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: have a garage. And so I just saw them work 62 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: so hard, and their big thing was just get an education, 63 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: and you can make anything happen if you work hard, 64 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,119 Speaker 1: you can do anything. That didn't exist where they come from. 65 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: If you were born poor in Poland, you probably died poor. 66 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: And so it meant so much that they really believed 67 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: in the American dream, and they instilled me with the 68 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: belief in it as well. But then I went off 69 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: to college and the Great financial Crisis hit and they 70 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: had taken on a mortgage and then everything was going 71 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: great for a while until it wasn't with housing prices 72 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: right and so right before the housing bubble popped, my 73 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,839 Speaker 1: mom had taken a heelock like a home equity loan 74 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: in order to start a business. And then the market 75 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: crash and my parents lost everything. They had to file 76 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: for bankruptcy, and I just saw them struggle so much. 77 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: They actually tried to high it from me a bit, 78 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: you know, they didn't want me to worry, and I 79 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: was off in California doing my studies, and so they 80 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: they tried to make it seem like it wasn't as 81 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: bad as it was. And all of a sudden, they're 82 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: moving into a tiny apartment, and you know, because they 83 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: were prideful but also didn't want didn't want to. 84 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 2: Add that stress to my my load. 85 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: But I knew, I knew how bad it was, and 86 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: it changed our family forever, and it made me realize 87 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: that the whole you know, the mirage of oh, you 88 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: just got to go to a school and you know, 89 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: you tick off these boxes, you follow this formula, and 90 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: you're you're gonna be fine. 91 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: It was a lie. It was it's a lie. 92 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: And I saw just my peers in my generation struggling, 93 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: not being able to get jobs. I mean, my first 94 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: job out of college paid less than my internship in 95 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: high school, and everyone was, you know, racked with student 96 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: loan debt, and it just felt like. 97 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: Hope was not as easy to come by anymore. 98 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: And so I went off and I became a reporter, 99 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: and I worked really, really hard, and I I entered 100 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: into the legacy media world, and. 101 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: I really just wanted I wanted to. 102 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: Be like Barbara Walters, because I thought, what a noble profession. 103 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: You get to be on the front lines of history 104 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,239 Speaker 1: and hold the powerful accountable. And mostly I just wanted 105 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: to learn a lot, and I did. But what I 106 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: learned was that my parents were not the only ones 107 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: that were struggling. So many people in that decade of 108 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: like twenty ten to twenty twenty, after the Great Financial Crisis, 109 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: everyone was starting to feel like, WHOA, what happened? 110 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:29,559 Speaker 2: Here? 111 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: Is the American dream within reach? Does it actually exist anymore? 112 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: Why am I working harder? For less, Why do I 113 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: need two incomes or three incomes to afford what you 114 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: could afford on one income in the past. Why is 115 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: the cost of education and healthcare soaring? And for my parents, 116 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: I think it was really interesting because they were talking 117 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: to their peers and friends back in Poland, and Poland 118 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: was sort of emerging and becoming a more capitalist society, 119 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: emerging out of communism, and their peer group was started 120 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: to have a better quality of life than they were 121 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: having an America, which was like, you know, they left everything, 122 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: sacrificed everything to come here. 123 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: And so I quickly realized that. 124 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: There's a problem, and I'm reporting on the problem, and 125 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: people are getting more divided. Oh my gosh, the twenty 126 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: sixteen election. You know, holy Molly, Now we're in teams 127 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: red versus blue. But I couldn't connect the dots to 128 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: our monetary system until bitcoin. And so I was so 129 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: grateful when my mentor gave me the book The Bitcoin Standard, 130 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: because it truly changed my life. 131 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: It led me to question everything. 132 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,799 Speaker 1: It started me down the path to reading every economic 133 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: book I could, and it made me feel like, Okay, 134 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: I know what the problem is, like what caused it? 135 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: And I believe that bitcoin is the best solution that 136 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: we have and now I just want to talk about 137 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: bitcoin and dedicate my life to it. And I'm so 138 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: grateful that my hobby podcast turned into my career. 139 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love a lot of that one. I kind 140 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 3: of share a similar upbringing where my dad was just 141 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: a construction worker. He was a contract he had his business, 142 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: and you know, we were like middle class, but he 143 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 3: would make sure we were in private schools and we 144 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 3: were kind of like the poor kid in the private school. 145 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 3: But I've read and I believe in I've seen my 146 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: own life like that middle class kid. But seeing what 147 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 3: was possible makes us like work harder because we want 148 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 3: it versus maybe the poor kids who never saw it, Yeah, 149 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 3: don't even know it's possible. But also what I loved 150 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: is that you were acutely aware of a problem, Yes, 151 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: and it was personal to you, and so you were 152 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 3: actively searching for a solution to the problem. 153 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: Yes. 154 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 3: When you see so many people, prominent people even look 155 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 3: at bitcoin and say there's no value, there's no point, 156 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 3: what good is it? Do you think it's because they 157 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: don't understand there's a problem. 158 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: I think so, I mean even sailor has raised this 159 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: that you don't appreciate bitcoin until you really need. 160 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 2: It, right, you get it at the price you deserve. 161 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: I think the people who have experienced economic pain points 162 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: are the first to maybe look for it as a 163 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: solution and appreciate it. I also think you really have 164 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: to have a death of your ego. You have to 165 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: be humble about what you do, and you don't know 166 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: and so many people have become complacent about this system. 167 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: I mean, before bitcoin, I just assumed that everything gets 168 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: more expensive every year. 169 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: That's just the way it is. 170 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: It was a nickel when American grandparents were young and 171 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: they bought their movie ticket or their gallon of milk, 172 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: and today it's ten times more than that, and that's 173 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: just the way it is. I didn't understand the source 174 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: of money, like how money was issued, how banks created money, 175 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: fractional reserve lending. I didn't understand any of that. And 176 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: it's funny because, actually, if you when I think back 177 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: on my early days as a reporter, I really resonated 178 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: with the Occupy Wall Street movement. I thought that the 179 00:08:52,960 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: solution came from government actually redistributing the resources, which is crazy, right, 180 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: because that's literally the government that my parents fled, But 181 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know that there was another way. I thought 182 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: that the government was this positive force for good, to 183 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: help people, and I didn't realize how much the corruption 184 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: of money corrupts everything else, and how it breaks the 185 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: incentive system and breaks really our social contract with one another. 186 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: It is the reason we have these monopolies like big 187 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: food and big pharma and big tech. 188 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: It's not because these. 189 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: Companies were just so great that they managed to climb 190 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: to the top. A lot of it is because of 191 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: easy money and the way we've been manipulating capital, and 192 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: we're not empowered. 193 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,359 Speaker 2: With that information. 194 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you could go to the best school today, 195 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: you could go to Harvard and not learn really how 196 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: our system works and not be exposed to critical thinking 197 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: about things like Austrian economic theory and maybe alternative ways 198 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: to look at a financial system. And so it's really 199 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: incumbent upon us to learn ourselves because the government's almost 200 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: incentivized for you not to not to understand this. 201 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 2: In many ways, And regardless of who gets in office. 202 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: Red or blue, right or left, I mean, they keep 203 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: spending money because our system is set up as a 204 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: debt based system. They have to keep printing and devaluing 205 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: what you earn, and so I think for me it 206 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: became personal also because when I think about my audience, 207 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the people are like my family. 208 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: They just want to work hard. 209 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: They don't want They're not looking for a yacht, they 210 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: don't need to be the CEO of you know, Amazon. 211 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: They just want to work hard and provide for their family. 212 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: And I think it should be a little bit easier 213 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: to do that when people are working so so hard. 214 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: And I think bitcoin actually returns us to a system 215 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: and an environment where things are more achievable and you're 216 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: encouraged to maybe take risk to start a company or 217 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: build something or innovate, but you have to have a 218 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: form of capital, form of savings that actually goes up 219 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: in value and doesn't get crushed by things that are 220 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: out of your control. 221 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, about the American dream? And wouldn't the American I 222 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 3: guess I'm curious. I don't want to put words in 223 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 3: your mouth. What is the American dream? 224 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: To me? 225 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: It would be like, we have the ability to start 226 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 3: from nothing and build whatever we want. Yes, yeah, I'm 227 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: like I can be a poor immigrant and become a 228 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 3: billionaire if I want or start a big company like 229 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 3: that would be like the ability to chase that dream. Yes, 230 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: what does that American dream mean to you? Yeah? 231 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: I mean to me, it's always been that you can 232 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: come from anywhere. You your parents could be rich poor, 233 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: you could come from a developing country, or you could 234 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: come from the wealthiest place. And if you work hard 235 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: and you're a good person. And I'm going to add 236 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 1: that because I do think it's important. I think integrity 237 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: is important. But you can work hard, be a good person, 238 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 1: and you can achieve anything you want. 239 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 2: And I think. 240 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: Education is a huge part of that, because so many 241 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: people came here also to get a good education. 242 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: And we were once like amazing in terms. 243 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: Of just our literacy rates and just the things that 244 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: we could build and create here. 245 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 2: We were theation of the world. 246 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: We were a beacon, not just in terms of like 247 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: our economic status, but really also like the contents of 248 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: our character, Like the American character is something that I 249 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: think people aspired to around the world. And my mom 250 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: I remember, I mean, she grew up watching American movies 251 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: and the Golden Age of cinema and listening to music, 252 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: and she wanted like Levi's jeans, I mean everything that 253 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: was quality and special came from America and we've lost 254 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: so much of that, and it's sad every day we. 255 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 3: See headlines about inflation and dead and diminishing control over 256 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 3: our own money. That's why I always come back to bitcoin, 257 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: because it's built for generations, it's built for legacy. But 258 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 3: protecting your bitcoin legacy the right way it's not always simple. 259 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 3: It demands discipline, focus, and the right partner.

Yeah. 277 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: Do you think the American dream is dead? 278 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: I think it's sad that a lot of people think 279 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: it is. 280 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: So if you look at the statistics, if you look 281 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: at the studies out there, more and more people, especially 282 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: the younger generations, feel that the American dream is dead 283 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: and no longer within reach. We have startling statistics that 284 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: even the likes of you know, Larry Fink of Blackrock 285 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: have brought up saying that it's concerning to him the 286 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: statistics of how many young people no longer feel hope 287 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: for the future. So I don't believe it's dead. I'm 288 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: concerned that a lot of people believe it is. Because 289 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: if you believe it is, I think that that changes 290 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: the way that you behave It changes your mentality on 291 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: what you think is possible, and I think it also 292 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: changes how we treat one another and look, I mean 293 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people blame things on social media, and 294 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: I get it. You know, obviously, you now have a 295 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: screen you can hide behind, and you can vent your 296 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: frustrations to the world. And there are some very, very 297 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: negative and horrible things that have happened as the result 298 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: of social media. However, I see it more as a tool. 299 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: And so happy people use tools for great things. They 300 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: build great things, they share ideas, they cooperate, they collaborate. 301 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: It's angry, negative people that use tools for negative things. 302 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 2: And so I think we see so much. 303 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: Of the it's a you know, terrible negativity and polarization 304 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: and radicalization online because so many people feel a lack 305 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: of hope and they feel so much economic resentment, and 306 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: that's their vehicle, their way to vent it. And really, 307 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: with a screen that you can, you know, hide behind, 308 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: you're able to do it almost in a way with 309 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: no consequence, in a way you wouldn't do it if 310 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: you were sitting across the table from someone. 311 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and back to the tool, I mean the tool, 312 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 3: like you said, social media for example, like one, I 313 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: could use that to get ahead to meet people, learn 314 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: new things, build new businesses, or I could use it 315 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 3: just to medicate myself and numb myself to the world. 316 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 3: And so it's like, how do I want to use 317 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 3: that tool? So how do you think bitcoin can help 318 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 3: renew or fix the American dream? Yeah? 319 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: I think bitcoin restores the American dream because it offers 320 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: you an inflation proof form of money that the average 321 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: person can save it. And I think that's so important 322 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: because we don't really think about inflation as much as 323 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: we should. I mean, I was a reporter and I 324 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: reported the numbers of inflation every year, which in the 325 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: twenty tens was like, you know, one to two percent 326 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: in their target range. 327 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: But meanwhile, asset prices, stocks. 328 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: Were going bonanza after the recovery and the money printing 329 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: in response to the crisis, housing just went skyrocketing out 330 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: of reach for most people. Healthcare, the cost to send 331 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: someone to college. Those are the things that actually matter. 332 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: Yet there's a disconnect between how they're measuring inflation and 333 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: prices and what the reality actually is. So I just 334 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: think that the average person needs a way to save 335 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: in a form of money that isn't subject to Wall 336 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: Street games or political manipulation. It's just immune to debasement, 337 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: it is censorship resistant, it allows you to save for 338 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: the future, because honestly, we judge our economy but how 339 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: it's going great if everyone's spending money. 340 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 2: I mean that's the other thing. 341 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: When I was a reporter, every Thanksgiving and Christmas time, 342 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: we judged how great the economy was by how many 343 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: people were out shopping, even if it was on christ cards, 344 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: you know, racking up debt. But we should be an 345 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: economy of savers so that we can, you know, drop 346 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: our time preference and have the capital to invest in 347 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: things that are productive. So that's what I think people 348 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: need most. And there should be more attention placed on 349 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: just being able to save money. 350 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, because if you if you have money saved, then 351 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 3: you're free because your future choices are open to you. Right, 352 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 3: So if you have no savings your job, you're basically 353 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 3: a slave there, yep. If your boss is mean you 354 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 3: can't quit, yes, you have no savings, yeah right, And 355 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 3: so the savings is what gives you those options. I'm curious. 356 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 3: So you you know, you got to where you were 357 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 3: reporting on this stuff on your mainstream media job. You 358 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 3: didn't understand it, but then you sort of found a 359 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 3: solution that made sense. So then you jumped into bitcoin. Yes, 360 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 3: since then, you've interviewed the biggest names there are in 361 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 3: the space, in the bitcoin space, in the finance space, 362 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 3: and even even outside of that. How has your understanding 363 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 3: or views changed over that period of time. 364 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 2: Conviction has only grown. 365 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: And also just my feeling that there's there's almost like 366 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: an imperative, like there's there's a sense of almost time 367 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: ticking that we have to get people on this this 368 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 1: life raft or this no is arc because we are 369 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: getting more divided and we're seeing people get more and 370 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: more disenfranchised. And to the points I made a little 371 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: bit earlier, young people are just they're losing hope. They 372 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: don't even want to have families anymore. They don't want 373 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 1: to own property, they want to just rent. And look, 374 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: you know, renting can be great, especially maybe in this market, 375 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: maybe it's better to rent. But there's something that's different 376 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: about a sense of ownership and having an investment in 377 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: your community, in who your neighbors are and the way 378 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: we treat one another. I feel like everything has become 379 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: so you know, high time preference, short term thinking. 380 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 2: I think that leads to a lot of grift. 381 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: I think it leads to you know, a society where 382 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: the moral fabric. 383 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 2: Starts to decay. I mean, look at right now. 384 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: I saw a story over the weeekend of how more 385 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: and more women in college, in order to pay for 386 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: their tuition, they're going on OnlyFans. That is not a 387 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 1: healthy society. And look, I know it's it's the oldest 388 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 1: profession in the book. Right However, I thought, Okay, I 389 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: do think that if people, if more people were economically empowered, 390 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 1: if the average college college student didn't feel like, oh 391 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: my god, I'm racking up all this dead and I'm 392 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: not going to be able to, you know, tread water 393 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: when I graduate, I don't think that they'd be making 394 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: these same choices. I really don't. I think I think 395 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: we would be a more productive, cooperative society. And and 396 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: we were, you know, I I love talking to Americans 397 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: who grew up in sort of the golden age of 398 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: our country because they talk about it with such like 399 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: a vibrant, passionate nostalgia, like it was once so good, 400 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 1: you know, like their childhoods were just milk and honey 401 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: and everything seemed possible, and we represented so much hope, 402 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: and with that hope came this responsibility that we did 403 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: want to show the world like like principled leadership, and 404 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: there is like a sense of just like vocation and 405 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 1: and and citizenship and. 406 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: And we've lost a lot of that. I really, I 407 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 2: really think we've lost it. 408 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: And I and I want to focus on what we'll 409 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: bring it back, because we all talk about the problems 410 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: and that will just get us, you know, angry at 411 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: each other online all day. But like what is the solution? 412 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: And bitcoin is the most accessible one. It is the 413 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: one that everyone no matter what currency you know, you're 414 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: transacting and you could start to acquire a little bit 415 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 1: of a hard asset that no one can take from you, 416 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: that no one can print out of thin air. Something 417 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: that you've said and Jack Mallers has said before, it's 418 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: like we don't appreciate the concept of we work so 419 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: hard for this form of money that someone can just 420 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: click a button and print. They're stealing your time. So like, 421 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: what's a way to get your time back? Because time 422 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: is the most important thing we have in general? Right, 423 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: So so yeah, I think bitcoin offers hope, and that's 424 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: why I think it's it's incumbent upon us to teach 425 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: as many people as possible. 426 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, how much do you think that's also just you 427 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: sort of mentioned society breaking down overall, and so I 428 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 3: think about it as like a paradigm shift where we 429 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: can view the glass half emptier, half full. We can 430 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 3: look at life as something that happens to us or 431 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 3: happens for us, right, And so a lot of it 432 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 3: is that, And maybe that comes down to the education 433 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 3: that we've been given. Maybe some of it is society 434 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 3: is so tainted that then it just makes us more 435 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 3: negative on everything overall. Yeah, because we can just choose 436 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 3: to change our unit of account. Yeah, if I priced 437 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 3: things in bitcoin, homes are getting more cheap or they're 438 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 3: getting cheaper, right, life is getting better, and so how 439 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: much of it is just sort of like giving them 440 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 3: something that can give them hope and then they can 441 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 3: have that paradigm shift and they can start building. 442 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, negativity breeds negativity, Positivity breeds positivity. I really 443 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: think it's important who you surround yourself with and the 444 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: attitude that you take. This is one of my favorite 445 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: things actually about Jeff Booth and sort of the peaceful, 446 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: calm zen message that he shares with the world because 447 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: he talks about how you know you are sort of 448 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: a reflection of what you surround yourself with. And so 449 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: if you look out into the world and all you 450 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: see is doom and gloom and the heartbreak and the suffering, 451 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: that's what will come find you. And there's like this 452 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: reciprocal relationship, a law of attraction, so to speak. If 453 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: you put out negativity, it will shine like a mirror 454 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: back at you. 455 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 2: If you put out positivity, if you. 456 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: Surround yourself with people that will help you grow and 457 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: push you, and and you think about the future in 458 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: a way where you look at it in a positive light, 459 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: like what can I do? How can I be of 460 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 1: service to others? How can I grow? How can I achieve? 461 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 1: That will come to you you make it yourself. And 462 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: I think that's really important because you probably know too. 463 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: I mean, today online doom cells really well like doom poor. 464 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 1: You know everyone it's like the click bait. Everyone's waiting 465 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: for the crash. When's the market going to crash? And 466 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: it's true. 467 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 2: I mean, you could get a lot of views with 468 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: that message. 469 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: And I'll never forget when I was in grad school, 470 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: you know, some some of us would question, why do 471 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: we always have to cover such terrible stories? Right, It's 472 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: like we were told, if it bleeds, it leaves. You know, 473 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: do you really want to be watching every single night 474 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 1: just like, you know, tragedy after tragedy, after murder, after 475 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: loss after suffering, Like why isn't there a program that 476 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: just shows you the good stories around the world, like 477 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: the happiness, the hope, and I kid you not like 478 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: they presented us with studies where they tried those types 479 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: of newscasts and they fell. 480 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: Off a cliff no one watched. 481 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: It's like there's something about us as humans that is 482 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: attracted to the destruction and the conflict and the drama. 483 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: You know. 484 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: It's there's a reason when we drive by a car 485 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: crash we all turn to look. 486 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 2: There's something within us. 487 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: But I do think there's also some thing within us 488 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: that just naturally responds to messages of hope, like how 489 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: can I be better? If you see someone that's achieving something, 490 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: you're like, how did they do that? I was always 491 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: someone when I was young who I loved biographies, especially 492 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: of successful people who were like rags to riches. I 493 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: was like, how did they do that? They make it 494 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: seem possible, like what were their steps? Like can I 495 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: follow them? In a certain way, and so I think 496 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: you have to fill your life with people who inspire you. 497 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: You have to challenge yourself like read books and expose 498 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,719 Speaker 1: yourself to as much as possible so that you can grow. 499 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: And I do also think it's important to be of 500 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: service to other people, and that's really the basis of capitalism. 501 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: I think capitalism has been bastardized in many ways. 502 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 2: It's seen as a negative. 503 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: And if you really study capitalism, it is about saving, 504 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: dropping your time preference, and then using that. Capital is 505 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: an investment to create value for someone else. You are 506 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 1: going to make a profit if you create a good 507 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: or service that is of value to someone else. Let 508 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: the market decide what the appropriate price is. Why have 509 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: the politicization of money Because when money becomes political, it 510 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: leads to corruption. So we need to fix that. And 511 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: the only antidote I see is bitcoin. 512 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 3: Governments will never stop printing money, so inflation it's not 513 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 3: going away. Now. If your money's not earning at least 514 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 3: ten percent a year, you're losing purchasing power. Now that's 515 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 3: why I talk about bitcoin. It's the number one way 516 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 3: to beat inflation and secure your future. And the question 517 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 3: I get asked almost every day is where do you 518 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 3: buy your bitcoin? Now? For years I've personally use River 519 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 3: dot Com and I only take on sponsors that I 520 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 3: use and I trust, and I trust them because River's 521 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 3: bitcoin only. They have one hundred percent reserve, and they 522 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 3: keep your bitcoin safe in cold storage with no middlemen, 523 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 3: and you can actually talk to a real person, a 524 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 3: US based support, dedicated manager. Now, try to getting that 525 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 3: peace of mind from coinbase. Of course you can't. Now 526 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 3: the perks. If you set up auto buys, you can 527 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 3: pay zero fees plus. Instead of your bank paying you, 528 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 3: you know, zero point four percent on cash, River pays 529 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 3: you three point seventy five percent on cash paid in bitcoin. 530 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 3: So if you're ready to build your bitcoin position with confidence, 531 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 3: go to River dot com, slash Mark Moss and get 532 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 3: up to one hundred dollars in bitcoin when you sign up. 533 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 3: Because freedom starts when you own your money, and your 534 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 3: money starts with bitcoin. I mean to add into that 535 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,959 Speaker 3: when you when you talk about using your money, your 536 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 3: savings to create value, Creating value is literally solving a problem. Yeah. 537 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 3: The only reason you'd ever give money to anybody is 538 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,239 Speaker 3: a fay solve a problem. Yeah, I'm hungry, I'll give 539 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 3: you money for Hamburg. Yeah, I want this ticket. I'll 540 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 3: give you money for the ticket or whatever it is. Right, 541 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 3: So it's like, when you think about it in those terms, 542 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 3: then you realize that business owners are actually servants. They're 543 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 3: not greedy people, they're servants. They can only make money 544 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 3: by solving problems of other people. And so yeah, it 545 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 3: does get spun upside down. 546 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: Now. Well, but let me just pause because right now, 547 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 1: I don't know if you're seeing around us there's a 548 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: demonization of the CEH of course. 549 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 2: Right, I mean, billionaires are the enemy. 550 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: And I think we only feel that way, or the 551 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: people in the population feel that way, because I don't 552 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: think that we would have this big of a wealth 553 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: gap if money was honest, and if we didn't have 554 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: a system that became so concentrated in terms of power, 555 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: this monopoly over money that allowed the Cantalon effect to 556 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: set in. Right, So the people that are closest, they 557 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: can use that leverage it to get more and more 558 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: and more rich. It's not about value creation at some point. 559 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: It's these massive corporations that can now put everyone else 560 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 1: out of business because they're closer to the money printer. 561 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: And I think that instead of a system where we 562 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: are basically encouraged to villainize the CEO and the entrepreneur 563 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: and the business leader. We need a system that rewards it, 564 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 1: where it is a source of inspiration that makes other 565 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: people want to do that. 566 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 2: And we don't have that right now. 567 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: We literally have the opposite, where we have crony capitalism 568 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: and everyone who's a beneficiary of that is seen as 569 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: the enemy. So we need to change that, but we 570 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: don't don't. We don't need to change it by like 571 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 1: taking the CEO's money and redistributing it, just giving it 572 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: to the government to decide what they want to spend 573 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: it on. We need to change the system itself and 574 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: create a new incentive system. 575 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. We need to get rid of the oversized 576 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 3: government regulations that create all those monopolies and allow businesses 577 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 3: to fail, so we can have people moving up and 578 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 3: down and so they can come down and consequences. Reintroduce concert, 579 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 3: reintroduce consequence. No bailout, so when yeah, when you can't 580 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 3: print the money more than you and then the bailouts, Yeah. 581 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: Remove the bail defund the bailouts, defund the wars. 582 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 3: I do think though that maybe there's I this is 583 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 3: a little bit of a contrary intake, but I think 584 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 3: there's too much put onto the income inequality gap. And 585 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 3: I think rather than look at the amount of income 586 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 3: or wealth they have, we could look at it more 587 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 3: of a consumption. So what do I mean by that, 588 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 3: Jeff Bezos, not to call them out, Well, let's call 589 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 3: it Jeff Bezos for a second. Number One, Status is 590 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 3: a zero sim game, so for me to have more status, 591 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 3: you have to lose status. But wealth is not a 592 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 3: zero sum game. Wealth creates more wealth. So when Jeff 593 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: Bezos became one of the richest guys in the world, 594 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 3: millions of people have become millionaires because they can sell 595 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 3: products on Amazon and they wouldn't have had that without it. 596 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 3: But I think also we think about the consumption, right, 597 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 3: So like Jeff Bezos, I'm sure has a house, and 598 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 3: I'm sure he has a flat screen TV in that house, 599 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 3: and he probably has a car, and he probably has 600 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 3: an iPhone. And I have an iPhone and a car 601 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 3: and a house on a flat screen TV. He can 602 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 3: fly around the country. I can fly around the country. 603 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 3: He has access to US healthcare. I have access to 604 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 3: US healthcare. The average even the person on welfare in 605 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 3: the United States has a house with a flat screen 606 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 3: TV in three meals a day. Now he has more houses. 607 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 3: But like, so what right? So like when we think 608 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 3: about like on that, so I think maybe back to 609 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 3: I think we had talked about earlier sort of how 610 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 3: Marxist tendencies want to pit the rich against the poor. 611 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 3: So can like come out with the pitchforks and try 612 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 3: and take her they have? But like, and so that's 613 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 3: why I think looking at the income side is like 614 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 3: the wrong thing that we're looking at. So it's like, 615 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 3: I have a flat screen, I got a house, I 616 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 3: got a car. I can fly around the country, you know, 617 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 3: not a private jet, granted, but so what right now? 618 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 3: Jeff Bezos worked in an office eighty hours a week 619 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 3: for twenty years. I also don't want that. I don't 620 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 3: want to work eighty hours a week in a cubicle 621 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 3: for twenty years. No, screw that, man, I'd rather be 622 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,959 Speaker 3: on the beach, right. And so I think, rather if 623 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 3: we looked about like what do we have? And I 624 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: guess it's like, am I trained on what I have 625 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 3: and grateful for what I have versus what I don't have? 626 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 3: Now there's certainly, and it's not Jeff Bezos' fault, there's 627 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 3: certainly why don't these people make a living wage and 628 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 3: why aren't they able to say for the future. And 629 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 3: that's going back to fix the money and the bitcoin piece. 630 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 3: So anyway, maybe a little bit of a tangent and 631 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 3: I'm off on, but I think we're focused on this 632 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 3: this gap that's not really that important, and it kind 633 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 3: of creates us pitting against each other. 634 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I I definitely think you make some 635 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: great points. I just this isn't just related to you know, 636 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: our system of money, but also things have changed over 637 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: the past few decades, and most of the value creation, 638 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: so to speak, is oftentimes made in stock values, right 639 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: whether or not the company's actually profitable or providing better 640 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: and better service, services or goods. But really, like the 641 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: executive compensation is tied to the stocks. And when you 642 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: have access to easy money at artificially low interest rates 643 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: and you can use that to buy back your own 644 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: stock and inflate its value, that's where I think it 645 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: starts to get into some wonky areas because we have 646 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: seen from like nineteen eighty to today, the gap between 647 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: like a worker to a CEO's pay you become exacerbated 648 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: by things like stock buybacks and the compensation you know structures. 649 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 3: What happened is under Bill Clinton, they said that you 650 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 3: can't pay these employees. Are the CEOs that exorbit salary anymore, 651 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 3: right and be able to write that off against. 652 00:31:58,160 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: Your taxes and look at what it's turned in. 653 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: I can't pay them. So then the company is like, well, 654 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 3: if I can't pay them, obviously, if I want the 655 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 3: good talent, I have to pay them. But the government 656 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,959 Speaker 3: says I can't pay them, so I guess we'll give 657 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 3: them stock. 658 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, And it all comes back to the government making 659 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: these decisions, putting their hand into the free market. 660 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 2: It is. It's really interesting. 661 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 1: Obviously there's no maybe clean solution, but I do think 662 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: it is. It is a source of frustration for a 663 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: lot of people to see that the pay gap has 664 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: gone from like seven to ten times what an employee 665 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: makes to like two hundred times. 666 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 2: But it is. It's related to those types of compensation structures. 667 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 3: I want to dig into your book, but before I do, 668 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 3: I want to ask you one other question about that, 669 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 3: because what I also see. So we talked about the 670 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,719 Speaker 3: Jeff Bezos and the wealth said, but then the problem 671 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 3: is that the average person is struggling to get by. Yes, 672 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 3: that's the problem. 673 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, because everything has been inflated. 674 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 3: Their money is buying them less goods and services. Because 675 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 3: everything's being inflated, their savings aren't getting their future that 676 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 3: they want. And that's a big problem. But I also 677 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 3: see that the world changed very rapidly. Most people still 678 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 3: haven't caught up with how fast things have changed. They're 679 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 3: still not even processing how much AI and Big One 680 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 3: it has changed the world. And so they're operating from this 681 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 3: industrial era lens. And then we're not in that world. 682 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 3: And so we had, like you were, you managed to 683 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 3: go from this like corporate legacy world to like this 684 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 3: new creator economy for example, where like I don't need mainstream, 685 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 3: this mainstream legacy path, and I don't need to be 686 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 3: dependent on someone to give me a paycheck every two weeks. 687 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 3: I can just go take the value that I can create, 688 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 3: and I can provide that to the world in exchange 689 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 3: for money. And I'm guessing you're doing much better today 690 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 3: than you were under that old path. And so how 691 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 3: much of it is that people are still sort of 692 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 3: living through that lens? And they haven't sort of adapted 693 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 3: to this new world that we're in today. 694 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: I love that you brought this up, because decentralization isn't 695 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: just happening with our money, but it's really happened as 696 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: a result of the Internet, with things like information and with. 697 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 2: Our ability to have careers. 698 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: I mean globally, someone I have someone working for me 699 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: who's in a different country who's providing value because I'm 700 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: in this creator digital economy. So I'll never forget when 701 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: I was considering should I leave my job in order 702 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: to go out on my own, basically, and there's no guarantees, 703 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: there's no stability, there's no paycheck, and I remember I 704 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: struggled with it, and it's like the Fiat system programs 705 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: you to basically be a corporate slave, like a debt slave. 706 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: You think, hey, the nine to five, that's safe. That's safe. 707 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: I have my paycheck. I put a little bit aside 708 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: for retirement. I know that something you know is going 709 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: to protect me the next day when I go into 710 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 1: my office. 711 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 2: But you don't. 712 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: Realize that you're actually you're like starving yourself of so 713 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: much opportunity. And I actually I look at the people 714 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: who were early to adopt things like YouTube or TikTok 715 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: or these online social media platforms, and look at what 716 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: they created for themselves. 717 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 2: I mean mister beast right, Like, did you see. 718 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: The video that he posted the other day where he 719 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: literally this is a really interesting story. So in twenty 720 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: like fourteen or fifteen, when he was just starting out 721 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:09,439 Speaker 1: on YouTube, he literally posted a video of himself that 722 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: he's scheduled to. 723 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 2: Publish ten years from now. No way, yes, and so 724 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 2: it just published. 725 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: It's him ten years back saying all right, if you're 726 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: watching this, I hopefully have a million subscribers and oh 727 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:22,760 Speaker 1: no way. 728 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 2: And he's got like one hundred million subscribers. 729 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: I mean, he's made so much, and he's made not 730 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 1: only an impact, but like he's trying to give back. 731 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: You know, he's someone who wants to like help others 732 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 1: do philanthropy. I don't even watch his content, but like 733 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: that's what I've seen that he's about. And so like, 734 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: you can make anything happen. And I think sometimes we 735 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: are our own worst enemy. We almost keep ourselves back 736 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: because we assume, well, I'm in this safe job, like 737 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: I shouldn't risk it, right, I shouldn't destabilize, and it's 738 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: probably harder if you have a family, right. But again, 739 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: if we had a form of money that we could 740 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,439 Speaker 1: rely on that could we allow allow us to save 741 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: for the future, maybe we would take more of those 742 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: creative entrepreneurial risks because it would seem worth it, because 743 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: you'd be thinking about the future and what you could 744 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 1: create instead of being in this like, you know, I'm 745 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: paycheck to paycheck, How am I going to afford? 746 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: What if everything doesn't work out? 747 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: Like you're in a different mentality in a world of 748 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: fiat and unsound money than when you're in the on 749 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: the bitcoin standard thinking about what could be possible. And yeah, 750 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: I mean, thank goodness I did this. I'm so grateful. 751 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't be sitting here, and I'd probably be, 752 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, reporting on some tragedy wondering when when and 753 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: how can I get out of this? 754 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think of bitcoin being permissionless money and how 755 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 3: it can give us a permissionless life. And we have 756 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 3: bitcoin now as well as the Internet, and so we 757 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 3: can have this permissionless life. And so let's say that. 758 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 3: You know, it was actually my friend's sister. She was 759 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 3: like a corporate HR person and she's been applying for 760 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 3: jobs for like over six months, and she's gotten all 761 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 3: the way to the last few and she just doesn't 762 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,399 Speaker 3: get the job. And I said, you could just take 763 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 3: your HR skills directly to the mark market. There's probably 764 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: a ton of small businesses that would love to hire 765 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 3: an HR person but can't afford a full time person. 766 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 3: So you can just take your HR skills directly the market. 767 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 3: You could be a bookkeeper or CPA. So it's like 768 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 3: I can take my existing skills and I can just 769 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 3: take that to the market without needing permission for somebody 770 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 3: to make money. Yeah, and so I just think it's 771 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 3: like this industrial era lens that we have to shake. 772 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 3: You know. Lou Grahman, who's I know, one of your 773 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: favorite guests. He's just one of my favorite to listen 774 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 3: to as well. He talks a lot about how the 775 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 3: middle class has been hollowed out and we sent all 776 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 3: the jobs to China, and that's only partially true in 777 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 3: my opinion. Certainly, yes, the factory jobs went there, but 778 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 3: those are low paying jobs. We used to have this 779 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:44,919 Speaker 3: massive middle class because in the industrial era, smart people 780 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 3: and dumb people were made, even on an assembly line. 781 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 3: But those are low paying jobs today. And we can 782 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: make everybody in the equal in the field picking strawberries too, 783 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 3: but that's just low paying jobs, right. And so in 784 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 3: the information age, we have to use a new form 785 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 3: of money and we have to think about money and 786 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 3: how we earn money, save money, invest money, just completely different. 787 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 788 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: I also wish, honestly that we had more people in 789 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: elected offices who have been business leaders as opposed to 790 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: just in public office as a career, because when you 791 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,720 Speaker 1: do become an entrepreneur, first of all, you can create jobs, 792 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: which is really exciting, but you look at everything differently. 793 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: When you're an employee, right, You're like, give me as 794 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: much money as possible. You owe me that, right, But 795 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: when you become the business leader, you're like, oh wow, 796 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: I also have to pay a payroll tax, Like I 797 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: have to worry about my revenue versus like how much 798 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 1: can I actually pay every person? Everything needs to create 799 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: real value for you in order to justify it, because 800 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,280 Speaker 1: you start to do all the math. 801 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, in office, we have a 802 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 2: lot of people who know how to spend money that's. 803 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: Somebody else's, but they've never created or built something. And 804 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: I think that that should be a prerequisite to honestly 805 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: running for office. 806 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, well it might be if they couldn't make 807 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 3: so much money because they have to go make money 808 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 3: first before they do it. 809 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 2: But now they go get do it in the private sector. 810 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,439 Speaker 3: Let's talk about the book. So you've got a new book. 811 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 3: You've been working on this for years, I believe, yes, Yeah, 812 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 3: what's the book. What's the frame of the book? Real 813 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,479 Speaker 3: estate or bitcoin? Which one's better? Well, it's not about 814 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 3: choosing one, it's about using both together. Because today sixty 815 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 3: percent of American homeowners net worth is trapped in their 816 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 3: home and there's no way to put it to work 817 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 3: in bitcoin until now. Horizons help you unlock a portion 818 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 3: of your home equity to buy bitcoin. And it's not alone. 819 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 3: There's no new monthly payments and you stay in your 820 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 3: home just as usual, but you leverage your equity to 821 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 3: get bitcoin exposure. Now what makes Horizon stand out, Well, 822 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 3: there's no term limits. You keep one hundred percent of 823 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 3: the upside of the bitcoin, and the bitcoin is yours 824 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 3: to custody however you want, with no risk of forced liquidation. 825 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 3: So if you've got equity but they don't want to 826 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 3: refinance or take on new debt, but you would like 827 00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 3: some bitcoin exposure.

Yeah, 834 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,800 Speaker 1: And part of that is, look, I took like a 835 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: year to write it, and a year is basically it's 836 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 1: just a different it's a different beast when you're going 837 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: with a publisher, so it's just a slower time period 838 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: at us to get sold into conferences things like that. 839 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,800 Speaker 1: But I'm so excited to share it's finally going to 840 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: be out in the world November eighteenth. That's called Bitcoin 841 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: Is for Everyone, and it's essentially a bitcoin introduction, a 842 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: Bitcoin one oh one, the book I wish I read 843 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: at the beginning, I Love You, Safety and Bitcoin Standards 844 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: still my favorite bitcoin book. But it's just it kind 845 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: of combines a lot of the different books and sort 846 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: of what I got out of each of them into 847 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 1: one that's very approachable for newcomers, for the mainstream, because 848 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: that was really my audience when I was a reporter. 849 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: I wanted it to be something that teaches you about 850 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: the monetary history, but also just talks about like you know, 851 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: at the beginning, it's sort of like, hey, let's let's 852 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: level with each other, Like we know that there's a problem. 853 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 1: Here's how that problem has manifested. Here are the symptoms 854 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: of the problem. Where how did we get here? You know, 855 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 1: where did we come from? And what is the potential solution? 856 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: And obviously I say it's bitcoin, So like, how does 857 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: that solution work? And what does it do? And how 858 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: does it empower us? And what can the future look like? 859 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: So it takes you on a nice little story arc. 860 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 1: It identifies the problem, tells you how we got there, 861 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 1: and presents the solution in a really digestible way for 862 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 1: the average person. 863 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 3: Okay, now, you know one of the questions we've been 864 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 3: asked in the meantime is how do we orange pill 865 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 3: more people? Yeah, I don't believe there's a silver bullet. 866 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 3: So it's sort of like always I think of it from 867 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 3: like a sales angle, which is like well, what's their 868 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 3: concern or their problem? And then how do I match 869 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 3: one of the attributes of bitcoin to that? So how 870 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 3: do you approach it to such a wide audio a 871 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 3: book like that. 872 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's not easy, but I will say 873 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: one of the reasons I decided to do it, I 874 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: was approached by a publisher and he actually published one 875 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: of my favorite financial books, which has nothing to do 876 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: with bitcoin, and that is The Psychology of Money by 877 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: Morgan Housel. So this particular guy, he found Morgan and 878 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 1: published that book, and that book has gone on to 879 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: do like seven million copies in sales, and he thought 880 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: there should be a bitcoin book, and I was really 881 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 1: honored that he found my content and thought I could 882 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 1: be maybe a steward of. 883 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 2: This of this message. 884 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 1: And so I thought about it for a while, and 885 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: I mean back to safetying, like his book changed my life, 886 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 1: Like I owe so much to him. And so first 887 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:42,959 Speaker 1: of all, it's like, well, the book's kind of out there, 888 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: but at the same time, we still aren't reaching a 889 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: lot of people. So I think that there do need 890 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: to be different voices. Someone may not pick up safety book, 891 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: but they may pick up mine. 892 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 2: And I think it's all a creative right. 893 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: There are so many great books in the space Broken Money, 894 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: Price of Tomorrow, Uncommunist Manifesto, You're writing books. I think 895 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: everyone has a voice and someone maybe knew that will 896 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 1: resonate with them, and I think the more the better. 897 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: So I just wanted to lend my voice. I think 898 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: that I come at it from a different point of view. 899 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: I'm not an economics, you know, expert, or maybe now 900 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: i'd like to. 901 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 2: I think i'd like to think I'm better. 902 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 1: But you know, I didn't come from the same background 903 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 1: as a lot of the folks in bitcoin. I wasn't 904 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: an engineer or a computer programmer, and I wasn't an economist. 905 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: But I wanted people to feel like they can learn this, 906 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: that they can be empowered. I think that that's the 907 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 1: one thing the average person needs most is feeling empowered, 908 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: especially economically empowered. And so I want them to feel like, hey, 909 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 1: I it's not too late, I. 910 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 2: Can understand bitcoin. It can change my life. 911 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: I want them to feel all the positive things that 912 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 1: bitcoin has made me feel. And so yeah, I mean, 913 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: I just hope it helps. You know, we've got a 914 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: long way to go in terms of education. We've made 915 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: a lot of progress, but we still have so many 916 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: millions of people who don't get it, who dismiss it, 917 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: And so I just hope that my book, you know, 918 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: makes a dent. 919 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I can't wait to read it, share with 920 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 3: all my followers. Anything else that you want to say. 921 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 3: Let's wrap this up, but what's your closing message? 922 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: You know, I'm just really grateful for the connections and 923 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: friendships I've made in this space and outside of you know, 924 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,959 Speaker 1: our podcast.
