In this conversation I go down the rabbit hole of family wealth from a Catholic perspective with Dorian Antešić. Dorian wrote his graduate school thesis on Family Wealth & Bitcoin, and I'm giving him the title of The Croatian Catholic bitcoiner.
We get into Tucker Carlson’s take that inheritance is a huge problem, a 1,000 year old Benedictine monastery in Croatia, family dynasties, and rediscovering the noblesse oblige.
"The essence of our faith is generational family wealth." - Dorian Antešić on The Reformed Financial Advisor podcast
Hi Andy - great podcast! One core theme seemed to be “Wealth can lead to either greater sanctity or deeper sin.”
(Great power, great responsibility)
I’m curious if you have spoken about (or are familiar with) a prayerful consideration of bitcoin in relation to Jesus’ words to the Young Rich Man and/or the Parable of the Rich Fool.
Mark 10:23 - The Rich Young Man
And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!”
Matt 6: 19-21 - The Rich Fool
“19 Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
