There are tens or hundreds of people who ask me: hey you know Bitcoin. Lets have a whatsapp chatgroup about the topic and I will invite more people.

I used to say yes. But then I join the chatgroup and realize after a month that I’m the only one posting.

I’m the only one bringing stuff. 99% of the other people are just listening. Never taking action.

If you are the “smartest kid in the classroom you are in the wrong classroom”.

When you send them the 10 hour plus youtube series of what is money of Robert Breedlove and Micheal Saylor they say: it is sooo long. When you send them the website of Darth they say: these guides are too long. Don’t you have a shortcut?

So they never see the hours you put into it.

I’m a bit sarcastic about this and a bit grey or dark.

But my experience is people want your knowledge often for free. Your time for free.

I saw my father as a kid working 8 hours to repair a car of his friends on his Saturdays. And when they finished my father would say when the asked him his price: give me something you feel it is worth.

They would put their hand in their pocket and give my father 5 dollars. For a whole day of work. For his free time!!

I would look at that as a boy of 7. And I would swear: this is never going to happen to me.

I know my price. I know my worth.

If somebody ask me: what is the price? I would say: 10 million sats. For 1 hour.

I only give my time for free when I choose to. If I’m volunteering for a foundation. But just a stranger coming to me for free time, to work for their business and their vision where they make the money? I say no or I put a high price for my time they cannot pay.
