Give up any semblance of identity you have. You are now a cog in the machine, nothing more.

You can circumvent this by buying BTC, ETH, or LINK early.

Idgaf about identity, plenty of identity to have in the 21st century.
don't mind being a cog in the machine if it was going to achieve something.

Am I fucking retarded or is crypto the only option to achieve financial freedom?

Those days are over my friend. The technological acceleration will restructure human conduct in ever shorter periods. People will have to reinvent themselves again and again in this century. I set the next period at 10 years.

This is the way I approach it: the reason why we are born naked is because that's all we're entitled to. We're entitled to a mother, a father, our limbs, our health, our Creator-endowed and inalienable rights, our mental faculties and our freedom. Some of us even lack a few of the aforementioned at birth. Anything you weren't born with was either something you were given and should be grateful for, or something you seized with your own two hands and should be proud of.

Don't assume you are entitled to anything you did not claim yourself and it might change your outlook on life. Try to live your life from there. You can toil and become rich, or take it easy and live frugally. Opt for a high stakes career or for a lower paying but more easygoing job. A lot of people try to "game the system" and get something without earning it. Think crime, gambling and yes, cryptocuckery. Some of them get lucky and get their big break, but there are many untold more that end up dirt poor or in the gutter because of it.

It's not what you want to hear, but it may be what you need to hear. Sweat on your brow.

There's an old saying in Dutch
>Wie niet steelt of erft moet werken tot hij sterft
>Who doesn't steal or inherit has to work until he dies

>We're entitled to a mother, a father, our limbs, our health, our Creator-endowed and inalienable rights, our mental faculties and our freedom.
You’re not even entitled to those things, you should consider yourself lucky to have them. The only human “right” is the right to die. Nothing else is guaranteed.

thanks for a real comment.
I definitely don't put any utility in having the belief of being entitled to anything. It's just that suicide seems more rational than wage slavery.

>Who doesn't steal or inherit has to work until he dies
>life is a zero sum game
It's not true. if I cut down trees and build a house out of them I can sell the house for more than the sum of the value of labor and materials

>>16300034
Accept that it's a scam. Vow that you will stop letting yourself get scammed after that.

>>16300192
"early" okay great so 3 years ago - whats the recourse?

>>16300626
Cutting down trees and building a house of them is work bro, it’s just not waging. Plus it’s not that simple, just because you build a house somewhere doesn’t mean you own the land.

god I knew someone would reply this.
It's just an analogy as an argument against the Keynesian idea the economy is set

>>16300706
Good luck making that work in practice.
