My father-in-law's father did a lot of very cool metal work art that's around my wife's grandmas house and it does make me think about how fun that would be.  But seriously though, I get it, and frankly I'm not a fan of people who drop $10,000 to pick up a hobby talk about it for 2 weeks and then storage all the shit.  I am going to start studying the ancient greek though, it seems like the more important endeavor at the moment
 

 Lol! 

The friend who's shop I was in yesterday knows a guy just like that. Bought top-level stuff and has no effing clue what to do with it. He has a very long-suffering wife.... 😅  

 I guess if you have money to burn...but sometimes these folks insufferably make you listen to their new hobby and you just _know_ it'll be over in 2 weeks. 

 Yup.

ESPECIALLY after they ask for advice, then ignore it.  

 That's really the thing isn't it. 

 Yeah. But hey, that is how we can end up with better equipment for the fiat in the future, or even better stuff with BTC!  

 I'm bullish on the future. 

 This depends on the time frame:
The near future is going to suck. 
Long term? Better than anything we can imagine.  

 Agreed 100%.
