I would like you, JJG, to take a look at the following inforgraph and see how we achieved nearly $20,000 without achieving / merely achieving anything in that infograph
Do you see the potential we've left ?
LONG way to go still my dear brother and friend
Actually, after our further back and forth, here, it seems that our perspectives are a lot closer than I had originally thought. We largely agree about many of the material underlying facts, their unfulfilled status that is continuing to contribute to upside bitcoin price potential.
If we disagree about anything, perhaps, it is merely the extent to which we refer to these kinds of potentials in being realized or at least the use of "inevitable" kind of language within our manners of description.
Thanks for clarifying those several points, and I hate to dox you in any kind of way, yet, if you had been investing in accordance with your ongoing bullish perspective, you gotta have more wealth than me? and I am feeling in pretty decent shape these days. hahahahaha... Seems like I hardly even blink at some costs/expenses that I would have previously paused before indulging. Furthermore, I am kind of considering ways that I can splurge in such ways to negate "money cannot cause happiness" proposals. Surely, in real life, I was a bit arrogant before, but I have become even more arrogant, and I think that it comes with having more and more "fuck you" money.
It surely is a good feeling, and one that I did not think that I was going to have.
About 4 years ago, I had a really good paying job, and I had left that job early with some uncertainties regarding whether I would ever (in my lifetime) be able to ever achieve that kind of compensation again, without having to work my ass off in order to achieve the kind of a cushy position that I had. A couple of weeks ago, I met with one of my ex-co-workers at a social event, and he was kind of presuming that my finances must be much worse than they were prior to my separation from that previous lucrative and cushy job. I should have held back with my information; however, I could not resist to inform him that in the last 4 years, I had become somewhat wealthy beyond my expectations and that in the past four years, I had made an income that would be more than 10x the total income of that previous lucrative job. I did not go into details with him, but I did tell him that the profits were from bitcoin. The more I then spoke with him about bitcoin, I could tell that he did not really know about bitcoin except to hear about how much it had gone up in value in recent times. Crazy, crazy, crazy, and even 4 months ago, with BTC prices in the $2,600s, I would have been excited, but I probably would not have said anything... It was just on my mind that I am making way more money than what I would have been making with that lucrative job... and very much less pressure and stress than carrying out the duties of such job.
I really enjoy talking with you my "Spanish" friend JJG, I like your elaborations and I want to meet you someday when I become a world citizen.

https://twitter.com/alistairmilne/status/942824774509760512No worries about doxing me, all what I can say about my wealth is that it's fairly good but still not what I dream about, I'm waiting for the day where we have worldwide banks open bitcoin savings accounts, then I will be set free, currently I will be living from the forks and an 0.5 BTC hold aside which I will liquidate at $100K and throw it into an savings certificate.
Regarding money buying/causing happiness, although it's true to an far extent but still, with money happiness is not fully achievable and it's not 100% guaranteed. Ask me about loneliness and to be alone only with your solitude, sharing all your wanna-be moments with air surrounding me.
I'm a believer that the more your interact and know people the more you respect, love and be loyal to your dog but still, living ONLY for yourself is a suicidal idea and nobody will understand what I'm saying unless he/she is in my shoes, got it now why I enjoy talking with you, because I feel I'm not alone.
Regarding jobs, my job salary per month in bitcoins now is 0.007060 BTC, I don't know if you will LOL hard and ROFL or just keep staring at the screen with your jaws dropping
Bitcoin is not only our generation opportunity, it's our lifetime opportunity to be set free from the prison we are in from many aspects.
On a side note regarding arrogance, what goes around, comes around, trust me. Most probably you are rich due to your inner good intentions, have pure intentions because of those, you are what you are now. Always be grounded and kind my brother and pray to God for what you've now and think about homeless people in this winter, try to go out and feel the weather and tell me more about your feelings, we are extremely blessed from God my brother, believe me.
