It's a mixed bag IMO but I generally agree with that is most cases.

I personally enjoy socializing with people with a common interest, but introversion is fairly common amongst Bitcoiners. It's great to be able to talk to people IRL when they actually get it. 
There's also a smaller part of me that hopes more generosity will come my way at some point so I can spend more time creating rather than working for fiat so much. It's not ideal, but it's true. I appreciate the help I've received so far that has allowed me to mostly break even with my side project of Sovereign Craft.
