Oddbean new post about login | logout Retirement has simply come to mean “escape” from the clown world, with its clown show, put on by clown people. It doesn’t mean “stop providing value “. #bitcoin nostr:note1j8quzzm7qkdnd9aep4dd4hfkys302nme9kykcxa224r3pyqjycjqg7nx4z
Sadly bitcoiners never retire Once you work for Bitcoin you work forever
I have zero issues with this.
I watched a documentary about the the NASA voyager mission in 1977. The outer planets were aligned in way that only happens every 175 years or so. They had to get it exactly right and they did. The guy being interviewed had worked on it his whole life. The mission ended in the 80s but Voyager is still travelling. It still sends a faint signal back to earth. He went to work every day, even though retired, to listen out for Voyager and check it was ok until he was very old. It was very emotional. He is now dead. Voyager still travels. That will be Bitcoin retirement.
Please check out the #FITS content I've posted recently. I think you may fit right in with this sentiment. Welcome!
Most people might even end up providing more value by escaping (stepping out of) the hamster wheel. I'm super bullish on the compounded effects of people recovering this wasted time for themselves, their health, families, communities, and the value-maxxing passion businesses.
💯 Why retire from fulfillment?

Been playing with retirement for about 16 months now. The fascinating thing I've realised is that the government can't tax the work you do for yourself & family. - The food you grow - The meals you cook - The wood you chop - The repairs & improvements to your house/vehicle They can tax the things you buy but not the improvements you make with those things. It's a fraction of the cost you would incur if you outsourced the whole job. It turns out that you need a small fraction of the "income" that you thought you needed when you had little time left for yourself.
