Take your time and educate yourself: read books about bitcoin, listen to podcasts about bitcoin, avoid most other sources that have anything to do with “crypto”, and set aside any (and all) money that you won’t need to spend for at least a year or two.

 Everything you think you know about Bitcoin is wrong. 

 never...ever...lose (or share 😆) private keys!

That stack from 4 years ago could come in handy! 

 Think in sats, not dollars.  

 The Oral Orange Pills are running out… 

 Buy as much as you can afford straight away, it’s going up in price so you’ll never have the opportunity to stack as many Sats as you do now. 

 Work. Provide value. Save in bitcoin. Stay humble. 

 dont use a playstore-walled subscription service to talk to bitcoiners when they are all here. 

 Good one 👍 

 HODL 

 If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong. 

 Build a good #Bitcoin position as quickly as possible (as a % of your own net worth). Spend time researching it and understanding it. Focus on developing yourself, your skills, and reducing negatives in your life e.g. drugs, adult content, and alcohol.  

 Don’t track the price, just buy 

 Trust it. Buy it. Self-custody it.  Never sell it.
