INSIGHT

System Over Coin

  • Pass down the system that uses Bitcoin to fund life without selling the coins.
INSIGHT

Treasury Beats Revenue Growth

  • You can't always grow earned income indefinitely, but you can grow a treasury using credit and equity.
  • Focusing on the treasury (assets) can outcompete chasing more revenue.
ADVICE

  • Use credit to buy assets that produce tax depreciation so you keep money you would otherwise pay in taxes.
  • Reinvest the tax savings into Bitcoin and repeat until your income is offset.
