Held an event in my community about finance had about 4 people show up.

At the end I help three of them smash buy $1 of BTC on cash app.

One even set up a bi-weekly DCA for $10 a month.

Next time will do a deep dive into Bitcoin and different sat stacking strategies they implement.

But one strong message I tried to get across to them is the hard 21 million cap and that we have no clue how many dollars exist.

what movie is this?

Seems that it's describing Madoff investment scandal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madoff_investment_scandal) so it could be... The Wizard of Lies movie?

Yesterday's comment

Ivan switched on the TV so that he could pay _____ attention to his homework.

  1. unblemished
  2. unbridled
  3. unshakable
  4. undivided

Crafted this question for my fifth graders. What do you think the answer is?

reply

He switched it on, not off?

If so, there could be two explanations:

  1. the TV is in another room, where Ivan's younger sibling is now occupied watching, no longer distracting Ivan from homework.
  2. Ivan wants to train his unshakable attention by exposing himself to the distraction of the TV.
reply

The answer is unfortunately much more mundane. I had a brain wiring lapse in which I typed on when I had wanted off haha

Ivan switched on the TV

But wait, wouldn't they be confused about the TV being on, since it's traditionally a source of distraction?

Great catch! Have edited my question in my file

Good morning!
