From a BBC article today...
'Ways to make your mortgage more affordable...
1. Make overpayments. If you still have some time on a low fixed-rate deal, you might be able to pay more now to save later.
2. Move to an interest-only mortgage. It can keep your monthly payments affordable although you won't be paying off the debt accrued when purchasing your house.
3. Extend the life of your mortgage. The typical mortgage term is 25 years, but 30 and even 40-year terms are now available.'
A reminder not to go anywhere near the MSM for financial advice. They're not your friends.

Have you read 'Finding signal in a noisy world?' I'd highly recommend it and think it would answer a lot of your questions surrounding the need for other projects. Bitcoin has solved for decentralisation and security on the base layer. Scaling will happen on layer 2. If you look at other projects, they have to sacrifice one of those three factors on the base layer, and that is what will lead to their downfall.

@npub1jt9…la9y
This was the article I mentioned, if you get five minutes. I tend to write these in one hit with no real editing process, so be gentle.

Hi Gigi, I'd like to share your work and read some of your articles on my podcast. I'd just like to get your permission first and do it in the least intrusive manner. I hope you're well.

@npub1jt9…la9y. Thanks again for your patience and good humour today Knut. Your words on cooperation hit hard. I look forward to reading more of your work in time.

I've been married for 10 years.
I've been a father for 8 years.
I've been hodling for 4 years.
And I can confidently say that I should have started hodling earlier.

Maybe our kids will grow up more financially educated and save from an earlier age. A truly free market that allows for deflation and saving being rewarded rather than punished leads to second and third order effects that most people haven't considered.

I'm just watching it now and it strikes me that Michael sees bitcoin as a store of value, but doesn't buy the medium of exchange and unit of account cases. Comparing the ARRs of different assets priced in dollars and seeing bitcoin come out on top just reinforces to me that everything falls against it, just at different rates.

Over the last few weeks, I've started a Bitcoin podcast and launched a Substack. I've recorded one episode and written three articles from scratch, and have another (excellent) guest lined up whom I'll be speaking with soon. As well as this, I've began my Nostr journey, quite the feat for a non-tech guy like me. All the while holding down my full-time job and being a hopefully excellent father and husband. I've resisted the temptation to bombard people with all of this and am trying to let it spread organically and see where it leads. If you've read or watched anything I've done and would like to share it, it's hugely appreciated. If not, I'm going to keep on at it anyway, because I believe in the cause of spreading the message about bitcoin and problems it can solve. Spending more time building the system you want to live in truly is its own reward and if I can be a small part of the transition, then truly, anyone can. If you've read this far and have an itching to write, produce, meme or shitpost to amplify the message, then just go ahead and do it - we're all Satoshi.

Craig and Calvin's early demise sets the tone. It might be the first Bitcoin book that's had me laughing out loud.

Most people are trying to find a sense of belonging inside arbitrary groups. We should embrace our individuality and right to disagree with anybody and everybody. I'm genuinely not scared to tell you that I don't like Taylor Swift's music and care even less about her politics.

I think there's two separate conversations to be had. One concerns state overreach and the other the damage caused by social media, but they should be separated. There's zero doubt that social media and wider content can be poisonous and addictive. Children should be sheltered from it and most rational parents would come to the same conclusion. It's not the state's role to parent my child, it's mine. The issue with legislation like this is that it's inevitably an easy win Trojan horse to further control and coercion of internet use for the rest of society.

@npub1s05…eyhe. Thanks so much for your time this week. I'm still getting to grips with Nostr, a steep learning curve for someone non-technical, but it already feels like a much nicer place to spend some time than X. Your words have already sparked more engagement from my friends and family on the topic than I've ever had before. Bitcoin has given me hope for the future that I genuinely didn't have before and the way you've explained your thesis over the last few years has been, for me, the biggest help of all. Thanks, Andy.

I think when trying to orange pill someone, we often start with the solution, which most are not ready to hear because it's such a phase shift. I find starting at first principles and asking undeniable questions like 'if technology replaces labour, why do things continue to get more expensive?' tend to lead to a greater discussion.
