Personally, I am guilty of wanting to dismiss others' reasons for desiring something because of the opportunity cost of not buying bitcoin. You didn't say what your response was to your wife, but I expect you didn't reproach her for not wanting to save it in bitcoin. If you did, then, I guess good for you! (lol) It is hard to understand why some people don't 'get it,' and knocking them over the head with the truth rarely works.

Edit: I should have said, I'm talking about labeling this 'fiat' as in having a 'fiat mentality'

Yup, I left it ambiguous on purpose. That's why this is in ~stacker_muse! It seemed like a poignant moment of reflection.

But this is what I replied to her, lol

Beautifully done.
I maybe wrongly assumed your wife doesn't 'get' bitcoin -- how can that be the case?
as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, ain't that fiat ona hell of a drug?

She is supportive bitcoin. Our disagreement over the burial plot isn't really about buying bitcoin as an alternative, it's more that I'm not sure we'll be in this city til our old age.

But I did think her saying that the price is just gonna get more expensive was one of those things that tickles a bitcoiner's ear
