When I listened to this episode of Joe Rogan with Andreas Antonopolous in 2016 it made sense because I was new to Bitcoin.
But now in 2024 we all can see that Andreas was 100% right. This is exactly what's happening in our society right now.
FORMER FINANCE PROFESSOR TAD SMITH: "After 25 years teaching finance, I realized at 58:
If the money printer grows 8-10% annually and the S&P 500 returns ~9%, it’s just treading water. True wealth comes from outpacing the printer.
That’s the #Bitcoin journey." 👏
MICHAEL SAYLOR: The system is rigged
"When I found bitcoin, I was in despair. I had worked for a decade. I had spent 20,000 man years attempting to do everything under the sun. I could not get ahead. And I was the same me. I wasn't stupid, right? You look at me and say well this is Michael Saylor worked as hard as he could for a decade and could not get ahead, right? And the most pernicious thing you can do to someone is you make them think that they're just not smart enough and the reason they're failing is because they're not smart and they don't work hard enough. And then you realize, no the system is rigged against you."
