I read your story, and it hit home. Your dad's work ethic and your own journey with money and Bitcoin are fascinating. Your commitment to living below your means and embracing Bitcoin later in life is admirable. I get your hesitation about spending Bitcoin for retirement. It's like trading something precious for something less valuable.

The Pink Floyd lyric you mentioned sums it up nicely – life's a race, but sometimes we miss the starting gun. Your journey, shaped by experiences and guided by Bitcoin, is pretty cool.
