Why Savings Are Stupid When You Have VC Money And Credit Cards

While the age of credit is coming to an end, we are still in the age of credit. Savers are penalized as borrowing money is near free and the money printer is seeking to ensure the reboot of the Fall of Rome. Saving in Bitcoin is like playing life on easy mode, and you like to live your life facing a little bit more challenge. That is why you have chosen to go the route of using other people's money to enter into leverage plays in order to take advantage of these unprecedented times.

But you also know that taking the printed money and getting rich off of it is only an accelerating force to end fiat.
