The world just isn't going to be the same and we have been blessed as the pioneers.
I haven't been blessed. It was through my foresight that I saw bitcoin for how valuable it was. No man helped me along, and many discouraged me. This is the best post in this thread. "Blessed", yuck. Blessed are those who aren't blinded by outdated bronze-age superstitions and imaginary sky-friends. You can disagree with people about their beliefs without condescending. You might even find a more willing adversary in a good debate. I am not religious myself and even went through the militant atheist stage myself. I have found that treating all people with respect makes me a much happier person.

To be granted a complete acquittal for my sins and that not for being "a good person" but just for humbly asking after realizing I will can be good enough on my own and because of God's great love is a pretty amazing blessing, more so than any amount of Bitcoin in the world. And on top of that, I do feel blessed for being born in America (although I don't entirely agree with everything we do in the US). We are privileged compared to many places in the world.

We will be so wealthy that money will never be a concern again: We can help people, while we enjoy the finest things and travel and smash big TV's, buy islands and own sports teams, grow organic food and raise healthy meat products and fresh fruits, eliminate the radiation from Japan, refreeze the polar areas and prevent Al Gore from getting too warm ....and that is just a start. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

We don't need to, since they are already in a endless form of slavery. You can learn to leave the "little people" alone, or are you driven to be a wicked ruler?
