Being born in between the UNIX epoch and world war 3, being frugal and prudent means minimizing economic activity until far into or after the war. Especially in the US where I live and all economic activity is harshly dealt with. The colder your Bitcoin is in this period of time, and the less you participate in the rush to destroy natural resources, the more potential future wealth for you and everyone else.
I disagree, as I'm actively trying to improve things, but perhaps we will both be proven right.
Have you ever done the math on:
• What your profit margin is on your economic activity
• What the military industrial complex profit margin is on your economic activity
• How much profit you need to save 1 life
• How much profit the military industrial complex needs to kill 1 more person
A better way of looking at the last 2 is "how many years of life can you buy per dollar vs how many can the military industrial complex"
It seems like extending lives is more expensive than shortening them, and killing is more profitable than saving these days
