this video from Cobie really hits the mark, especially the part about parents and how we got scammed, not getting to experience their true personalities while growing up.

@cobie Man. This hits, i think the hardest part for me is I’ll never be able to help my parents out, and their last memories of me were me dropping out of uni, they never got to see me become a fake person on twitter and build a career with a bunch of psychopaths

@cobie one of the best podcasts ive ever listened to. Cobie likes to come across as some sort of bumbling pom, but he's actually wicked smart and insightful, every now and then it comes out with an insane piece of insight into market psychology or something.

@cobie Yup. Often smart people don't shout and market themselves so they gonna stay as gems and not everyone gonna understand that imo.

@cobie Of all the words of wisdom that Cobie has spewed onto the TL, nothing hit home harder than that time he found a pair of scissors in his hand and he didn’t know where they came from. Always has and always will be one of the relate guys out there.

@cobie Bills, rent and expenses are real, not scams, they must be paid or you’ll be poor and homeless = fear. Those numbers on the screen aren’t just arbitrary numbers. They’re numbers they can change a persons life as they did Cobie’s, for the better.

@cobie The context of the talk is different. It's scam in a way that it's affecting so many other real things which has more values and meaning.

@cobie Cobie is one of few good guys in this space.

@cobie Cobie was describing high time preference and how that stopped people from living their true self which is only a product of a low time preference where money is not a survival part of their daily life. Bitcoin fixes that.

@cobie It’s a great point but not helpful to people in terms of thinking about it as a giant scam as the world is the way it is. You have to have a sense of accountability/responsibility and navigate the “scam” world and learn to have an abundant mindset.

@cobie Life is a skem and then we die
