 I talked to a guy the other day who had an irresponsible number of sats. 

I asked him, “what makes you so certain about all this?”

He simply smiled and said “track record”. 

How many sats did the man have? 
 690420690420 
 Zero 
 You got it 
 He sounds like a know-it-all. 
 I guess 0.

Irresponsible is not having sats at all. 
 Didn’t know that was you I was talking to! 
 Imagine being the guy who openly admits to @hodl that they own zero sats. 😬 
 0 
 Highly irresponsible of him 
 Panic 
 You can never have enough. 
 Zero 
 🙏 
 Probably shares the same track record with this guy:

 I agree with the sentiment, but the real reason to be "irresponsibly long" is because you cannot trust any other asset.

Stocks? Read "The Great Taking"
Real Estate? You own it at the pleasure of the state. And try not paying your property taxes, see if you "own" it or not.
Bonds? No, seriously ...
Gold? Yes, you can actually own this. Good luck setting up a vault in a jurisdiction that respects property rights.
