OK. That took a little less than a minute so I'll try something reasonable like 15 next so I don't notice a difference but it adds some proof I am a human.

I mean, there is a number of ways to make a living but there isn't many
ways to not pay taxes, whether sales, income, property or capital gains.
Nobody is going to arrest you if you quit you 9-5 for a 2 hour part time
gig and cut your costs of living.
People will arrest you if you decide 24% tax is too much and only pay 2%
every year.
When people come to your door and arrest you for not doing what you want
is when it becomes slavery. When people use physical force against you
to make you do what they want, then it is slavery.

Why is it that often when I use a webclient for Nostr I have trouble
making posts or liking? I am using Mullvad but I wouldn't think that
would matter. I'm also using Firefox and Linux. #asknostr
Even making this post the send button wouldn't work. I had to refresh Coracle.

Yeah. The lightning channels can be configured to take a fee on each deposit and withdraw. That's an honest way.
One could also rugpull after running a mint for awhile by turning off their mint and taking all the SATs in the lightning channels. So, be careful which mints you trust!

I did it around 2007 or so and it changed my life. I worked as a freelance webdeveloper for $10 an hour. I worked my way up to $100 an hour in a few years.
The extra time I gave myself allowed me to work on my health and reaseach things like bitcoin.
One of the best decisions of my life!

Yes, I have been to El Zonte and San Blas three times this year and it is extremely safe. If you already know Spanish you will do great! Although there are a few English speakers in El Zonte.
The most dangerous things in El Zonte are the waves and sometimes the local bacteria in the water or raw vegetables.
