Quick story about orange pilling a family member..
I've mentioned #bitcoin to all of my immediate family (as my duty since I love them), but have had little to no success in even getting them interested (perks of being the youngest kid and the black sheep of the family)
I only have one other family member who didn't fall for all of the convid nonsense so I've gone extra hard on her about bitcoin. She's been a financial planner for her whole career and understands her money (and clients) is being devalued in real time. But she "doesn't understand how it works". I've tried explaining 21 million and so on but nothing clicks.
So yesterday she offered to take my family and I on a vacation anywhere in the US within a budget that she set sometime next year..
So my big brains wife suggested we put that money in BTC and go bigger if it goes up or we'll pay the difference if not. And she agreed!
We have a hardware wallet coming for her and will get her a hot wallet on her phone with 1/1000 of that money so she can conceptualize it
I'm pretty damn stoked and didn't have anyone else to share this with! So if you made it this far, thanks for reading
