We feel the same @the moment, only when I was driving to the next place.... I drive in a police stop for b00z control and got myself a 3h driving license taken of!!! And probably a ticket, first one in my life F*** those F***ers

So we both are F***ed up right now but drunk so having Fun

Its Saturday after all

I support the proposal that MicG should be a merit source.  In my humble opinion, he would be a worthy candidate.

He sort of ties the thread together.

Boring afternoon, solution:
Sort the hats.
I will save and update the record now that it is created.

Pussy.

I'm doing an extra morning set of 10 reps with my titanium plates. I feel no pain. The only way is up.

Long at $20k is a dumb explanation.

No one with any brains is long at $20k for 16 months without, at minimum, making some additional buys to bring down their average cost per BTC.

In other words, it should be quite difficult to sympathize with anyone who made that kind of dumb gambling move to buy at $20k and to sit on it without having further plans and action in the 16 months.

Edit:  By the way, you raised a bit of a different point, Hueristic, so we are deviating from the original point that I was attempting to make.  I went back to my original post, linked above, and for context, that post was questioning how it seems that so many people involved in such a greatly performing asset class, such as bitcoin, since 2013 are "poor."

Only missed a 28 X from his 700, thats considered almost right    

The cynic in me says people know we’re generous Merit givers in this thread. Very convenient a Brand New account makes its first post here saying how they’ve just bought their first bitcoin & oh look, 21 Merit received.

Straight to the first signature campaign or bounty requring received Merit to earn money, never to post in the WO again.

Hmmmmm!

I just have bought my ever first bitcoin. Not that much though (not preferred to share). I have had researched on bitcoin since January 2018 but didn't dare to invest in. I spent a hour or two daily on it to learn about it. Today, I have deposited a large amount of my savings and purchased bitcoin. I can feel the ride.

Huh?  Me doesn't understand U.

I have done pretty well through my whole life, of course with several periods of frugality, or choices to live within my means, but I have never felt myself to be poor.

On the other hand, when I witness certain levels of wealth extravagance that some rich folks enjoy, on a relative basis, I might have considered myself as poor... yet even after, having said all that, I am struggling to understand your response involving my own level of "poor" situation.

Yep - they popped a cool billion dollars (some theirs but mostly client's money) with a dodgy offshore 'payment processor' to do payouts to customers within the banking system - as Finex had no practical access to it.  Around 800 million has now either been lost or simply stolen.

The pleading emails from 'Merlin' at Finex asking, nay pleading nicely to his mate 'Oz' at purported payment processer 'Crypto Capital' to at least pop a $100 million over as things were getting desperate are instructive.

Minus violence + silent movie? all we hearing keyboard , background noise, seeing the actor but limited voice over more like silent movie.

Would be great if some questions left unanswered in the end (identity of Satoshi etc ) then sequel after 30 years.

Will turn 80 by then.

@bitserve how about he-she is one of the WO member or may be trolling here:D very unlikely scenario but just for fun ....

The Unusual Suspects ?


 

They can afford 15% of their toys being sold off. You're right.

Could perhaps we be taking for granted the privileged inner workings of our own minds, effortless as they are, and generously applying them to others where they do not exist?

In any case, I'm more than happy for them to continue doing what they're doing. More pie for the rest of us.

gawd...this is one job that would bring ZERO benefit to our society.

That's a pretty odd use of the term 'per capita'. Which, of course, is defined as 'per each person'. How can we have 3.54 Americans killed for every American that visits Pakistan?

That family seemed genuinely nice although in that naive and incapable of grasping the consequences of their actions kind of way.


But they should not be supported and they are precisely why I am dead against any social welfare that isn't an unconditional UBI.

That much I can tolerate to level the playing field and disarm literally everybody who dares complain about wealth inequality. People go from 0 to Forbes 100 all the time and with a UBI nobody could even attempt to make a case for "exploitation" or any other types of "qq unfair".

But financially incentivizing the degeneration of humanity is just plain wrong. There's a reason why IQs in the West have been in decline. It's precisely because all responsibility is delegated to figures of authority with misaligned incentives.
