Part 3/11:
Reflection on Personal Wealth and Spending
Much of the conversation revolves around the moral and practical implications of wealth accumulation—particularly through Bitcoin—and the concept of spending it wisely. Tina details his own journey from years of macro trading to embracing Bitcoin as a safeguard against the fiat system.
He recounts how initial encounters with Bitcoin in 2014 were dismissive, only to reignite interest in 2017, illustrating the typical "dragging the feet" experience many newcomers share. Tina emphasizes the importance of getting off zero, advocating for disciplined accumulation, yet recognizing that many people—himself included—spent too freely during the bull runs, wasting opportunities and overspending on material possessions like luxury cars and apparel.
