I lost Everything: Here's Why 0.01 Bitcoin is My NEW Retirement Plan
In this conversation, Brandon Gentile interviews cybersecurity expert Tony Yazbeck about the importance of Bitcoin self custody and the lessons learned from the collapse of the Lebanese banking system. Tony shares his personal journey, losing everything by trusting traditional banks and the need for individuals to take control of their finances through self-custody of Bitcoin. The discussion delves into the flaws of the fiat system, the transformative power of Bitcoin, and the risks associated with custodial services. Ultimately, Tony emphasizes the importance of financial education and the need for individuals to opt out of a failing system with only 0.01 BTC to achieve true freedom. The dialogue highlights the potential of Bitcoin to reshape society, reduce corruption, and empower individuals financially, ultimately envisioning a world where Bitcoin serves as the foundation for a new economic order. The discussion also touches on the intersection of Bitcoin and AI, the potential impact of quantum computing, and addresses common objections to Bitcoin, highlighting the importance of self-custody and personal responsibility.
