My younger brother and I share a unique bond that diverged as we entered our teenage years. He chose to serve in the war, while I pursued going to school and creative endeavors. Despite our different paths, we make it a point to connect, once a year, usually an eight-hour conversation to catch up on our lives. These moments remind me of the lyrics:
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here
I always ask him the same question that I ask you, “Would you do anything different?” Let’s say you knew you had 20 more years?
Probably not. Like I said, I'm pretty content. I have a family I love. The basics are covered. I don't want to sound like some kind of great altruist. I have fun. Regarding bitcoin, I really do still have the idealistic notion that it can help change the world for the better, despite all this ETF stuff.
