Austrian economics opened my eyes to the foundation of my existence, providing principles that now guide how I live under a low time preference. It reminds me that my time on earth is finite. By focusing on my essential needs and saving in sound money, like Bitcoin, I plan for the future and align my actions with long-term well-being.
I’ve never been a follower of allopathic medicine or taken any pharma. I see the connection between food, mindset, and economic decisions as part of the same bigger picture. Fiat money and fiat life lack true value, and this awareness has shaped how I think and live. This extends to the food I eat—I’m a carnivore—and the environments I choose. I place boundaries with people and places that don’t align with my energy, though I also reflect on misalignments to learn from them.
Once these foundations were in place, my life became freer, no longer activated by struggles but focused on evolution, leading by example, and educating others on purposeful living. I’ve learned what is called opportunity cost—the understanding that every choice comes with trade-offs, and making the right decisions means prioritizing actions that bring the most value to my life.
These have been many profound lessons I’ve learned through studying with Saifedean Ammous. As he says in Chapter 5 of The Bitcoin Standard:
“The better the money is at holding its value, the more it incentivizes people to delay consumption and instead dedicate resources for production in the future, leading to capital accumulation and improvement of living standards, while also engendering in people a low time preference in other, non-economic aspects of their life.”
