I like the word "allocating", because its precise and accurate. I'm not investing/speculating/taking risk. I'm simply allocating.
I understand that my most valuable assets from a first principles standpoint are my time and my health. Lets say I can "spend" those assets as "Energy units", then I can allocate energy units towards anything in the world.
Say I can spend energy units consuming a book, a podcast or a movie.
I can spend energy units building a rocking chair.
I can spend energy shooting drugs up my veins.
Whatever I do when I *spend* energy units is can be placed on a spectrum of productivity from very productive and valuable to someone to the opposite.
Or, at the meta level, I can postpone spending an energy unit by traditionally placing that energy in the stock of a company I believe is creating enough value for the world that it'll accrue more value to me.
Or I can just #buybitcoin which in an of itself isn't doing anything. It's just sitting there not creating any value out of thin air.
Which, that last point might startle you because #bitcoin fixes everything.
Sure, but thats just because "everything" is broken right now, but once all is fixed, bitcoin and the prosperity it brings will just be the baseline.
So yeah, basically, "All I have in this world" is my energy units which I'll allocate towards being a skillful human being that my family, community, society values enough to reward with enough monetary units so that I can live well and save some for later.
And I dont break them for no one.
