I wonder… Assuming that you think about physics, roller coasters, balls… Is it necessary to throw the ball harder to the floor, to make a bounce ever higher?

I suppose then, I wonder if the wish then is you actually want bitcoin to bounce lower, if your long-term goal is for it to bounce higher? 

So not to invoke too much weird conspiracy theories or whatever, trying to think about this more sociologically and philosophically, I like this idea of thinking about social engineering, being a social engineer etc. 

Thank god for sociology

First, I’m starting more and more… That my studies and deep dive into sociology has actually yielded amazing fortunes.

First, ironically enough, studying sociology and teaching me to “de-matrix” myself has made me a lot financially richer. Like insanely a lot.

For example, I’m pretty certain and committed to the idea that anybody who got in early on bitcoin, like I did in 2018, when bitcoin was only $6999 a coin, you kind of needed a little bit of disconnection from reality, etc. For example, starting to unlearn ideas of currency etc., back in 2017 when I was zenning out in Vietnam  was certainly one of the greatest windfalls in my life. 

People like to talk a lot about “reality,” perhaps it is better to think about first principles physics etc.  for example, I’ve been doing another deep dive into my best friend Aristotle, and one of the greatest things about Aristotle, and honestly the funny thing is that nobody criticizes the great Aristotle, because he had his head screwed on well, the general idea is that I think the best way to profit in life is to think first principles, back to basics.

For example, Aristotle in his ethics, talks about chief goods, which essentially means the end goals or desires that we have of something.

first principles,  thinking from first principles maybe one of the greatest superpowers of Elon Musk. For example, if you think about Tesla; rather than thinking about “how to make a better car“, which is just the Toyota kaizen Way  i’m making each generation of the car about 3% better indefinitely, a first principles approach is like asking the question “what should a car be and what should a car look like?”

Other example with Steve Jobs, the original first principles thinker; when he was prototyping and imagining the first iPhone, rather than thinking by analogy, which is like how do we take a pre-existing blackberry and make it “better“, he reimagined the whole thing. He had the genius idea that it should just be all screen, And to get rid of the physical keyboard, even though people were addicted to their crack berries with the physical keys. I still remember in the early days when I was in high school, even an early college, when the original iPhone came out, people will talk about how their words per minute on the blackberry was like 1 billion times faster. But now, once again thinking about first principles, I never type anything with my fingers on my thumbs anymore, only voice dictation. Why? Voice dictation is still like 1000 times faster than typing on a keyboard and certainly your thumbs. 

I’m pretty convinced that the only reason people don’t use voice dictation more is because they are fearful of looking stupid. And this is where I have found it insanely beneficial to spend a lot of time traveling being in different countries etc., other countries they use voice dictation like almost 100% at the time. For example in Cambodia, to type in Khmer the local language takes like 1 trillion stroke so everybody has devised that it is actually much more efficient to voice dictate everything.

Also, one of the grand upsides of interacting and mingling with mainland Chinese, who often walk around the grocery store with two brand new iPhone pros that done each other, hand holding it, is that they have mastered the art of voice dictation out loud, with zero shame.

If anything, the only reason why people hate mainland Chinese people is that they wish they were them; full of zero concerns about other people their perceptions, all wearing Louis Vuitton, and they really don’t care about what other people think about them. And they’re like 1 trillion times richer than you. 

Courage of being outside, the courage of social life 

So after 10 days in Mexico, 11 days, going to see the monarch butterflies in Mexico at Valle de bravo, Mexico City, and also renting a car and driving for a few days, what have I learned?

First, ironically enough LA is kind of like paradise, especially being in West LA, Culver City. Why? First, one of the biggest issues about a lot of these great foreign countries, is pollution. In the race to industrialized, pollution is out of control. For example I love Mexico City to death, but one of the critical issues here is that There is so much pollution outside, and I don’t think there really are any laws against pollution there, so you see so many trucks without Cal converters driving around, smogging up the air. 

Second smoking. For me, one of the things I made hit the most in embody reality is secondhand cigarette smell. And this is the big ethical issue: 

Technically, when a smoker smokes a cigarette, because they are doing it through a filter, they actually are being exposed to less cancer than their secondhand smoke which they shoot out.

First do no harm unto others. This means ethically, one should not be permitted to smoke in public. Public means where there is other people who are walking around you.

Which means, ethically, it is fine for you to smoke inside your house with your windows closed or your car windows closed etc., but ethically, one should not be permitted to smoke outside in public or on the street.

What are the things which is actually insanely infuriating to me is that people have a strong sense of indignant about smoking in public like he has some sort of God-given rights to do so? Not only that but most people are kind of wimps, they are a bunch of sissies who don’t have the courage to ask a person to not smoke in public. Especially when you’re with your kid.

Actually this is a big thing I’ve personally discovered for myself is that things are now different once you have a young kid, I think in the past when people would smoke I would just take it, but now that I share the air with Seneca, it is for his sake.

Therefore, my thought on being a defender or an avenger is to simply defend those who you love, obviously your firstborn son, your wife, your mom etc.

Protect and defend those who you truly care for. 

Meat Paradise 

Going to Costco yesterday, picking up ribeye steak, beef ribs etc.… The truth is seriously in America we have access to everything. Even Amazon prime, we are seriously living in the best world of all time.

Also another random thought; the upside of living on the second story apartment building, you have access to more natural light! Nowadays the meme is for a lot of wealthy LA homeowners to build these funny two or three story mini building block Lego houses, but the great tragedy here is that when you’re on the bottom floor, you don’t have any access to natural life. Therefore the name of the game is to keep building higher, the second or third floor, in order to absorb a little bit more natural light.

Even my mom who had this very interesting idea is that why do plant humans other natural beings need water? For photosynthesis, photo like futons, the light, and to synthesize energy and power.

Also ironically enough if you think about the word photosynthesis, and that we are photographers and we shoot and we make photos, shouldn’t we integrate more light photons into our everyday life?

Photon Canon!

One of my favorite games is a kid growing up was Marvel versus Capcom, and also one of my favorite characters was Iron Man, and also war machine. They had this pretty cool super in which Iron Man can shoot a photon cannon.

Pretty cool because you could hardness the power of the sun, you could do real damage?

Also a fun idea is that actually, if you think about the genius of Elon Musk, Tesla, solar city etc. is the general idea of harnessing the power of the sun, solar panels solar panel power , as certainly the future.

Certainly the technology that we have access to right now doesn’t have enough power yet, but, it seems to be the most logical path forward.

harnessing more sun in your own everyday life?

Therefore the funny idea I have; maybe if you desire more strength power or whatever, just spend more time outside in the sun! If you’re afraid of the sun put on some sun block or a hat, but no no no you will not get sun cancer.

Certainly there are cases in which if your heritage is super super north Sweden, and your pale as a ghost, then maybe putting on sunscreen and hat and stuff is a good idea, but still, don’t be afraid of the sun, embrace it!

goals?

So, some simple thoughts:

First, still… Whenever I meet a lot of people their life goals and dreams and ambitions typically involve some sort of travel like traveling to Japan, etc. And even though traveling could be seen as a little bit superficial sometimes, I still think it is a super good idea because it will really really open up your eyes to the rest of the world, to re-challenge your typical assumptions, etc.

Second, create your own doge.  Department of governmental efficiency is literally about just cutting programs which seem kind of superfluous. Political matters aside, I do believe it is a good idea to try to cut superfluous expenses whenever possible, and therefore, it seems that it will almost always be a smart economic decision to cut costs, efficiency is all about cost cutting. 

Also, what a lot of people do not understand about Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey all these great entrepreneurs, is that in fact, they’re genius is sprung from the fact that they are masters of efficiency and cost cutting. Even Jeff Bezos, don’t forget how he would cut out Doors from Home Depot to create desks. Even apparently CEOs at IKEA all fly economy as well.

Spartan Sexiness

Some superficial things I often think about is like what is the best car, the best clothes etc., but the truth is the best shirt is no shirt, being topless or shirtless, think of King Leonidas and his 300.

Even pants and shorts, essentially know that the Spartans were all essentially in male bikinis. Even a kind of random thing is that my last pair of ex officio underwear that I purchased were the black “give N go 2.0” briefs — not the boxers, but the ones that look like a speedo.

Sublime samurai

One of my favorite visuals is this all black all Matt black samurai in full samurai armor, with some hints of gold and red tassels, from chubby cattle.

Even though all black everything all that black everything is kind of a superficial aesthetic, screw it, it’s still pretty good.

bitcoin belongs to me! 

We are all Satoshi we are all Michael Saylor

I think ultimately my great pride of owning bitcoin, bitcoin is like a bitcoin owner or a property owner, is that there is actually a deep sense of pride in owning bitcoin.

Considering that I’ve been stacking bitcoin since 2018, like at least 20 or 30 purchase orders, I guess I am really committed.

Even though bitcoin is still kind of political now, considering the US strategic bitcoin reserve act,  one of the big ideas and thoughts is that bitcoin is for the most part, pretty a political which then means, you can just bitcoin and chill, without having to stay updated with annoying news about all this ridiculous political matters and affairs. 

Recently just going to Mexico, checking out the monarch butterfly immigration thing, close to VALLE DE BRAVO– an interesting thought:

First, I had no idea but it was an ultra extremely hard-core hike to make it to the very top! Considering I’m also a handholding 50 pounds Seneca, also wearing a backpack full of heavy water, and also wearing my ERIC KIM portfolio bag, on my left shoulder, it was a lot of weight. Simply put, I wanted to ditch it all!

Which gave me a beautiful metaphor to life, if you wanna make it to the summit, you must get rid of all weight as much as humanly possible!

Lightening your load, metaphorically and literally

There’s like literally a lot of stuff which holds us down, both metaphorically and literally.

First the materials thoughts; it really does seem best when you’re traveling, hiking or whatever or being active… It really really really makes sense to use the lightest materials possible, even though they may not be as durable?

Lightness over durability

For example, world class cyclists use carbon fiber bikes, even though they are much more fragile compared to steel ones. And also truth be told, after world travels through Southeast Asia and Vietnam and insanely humid hot weather… 100% merino wool is still the best bet, even though it is insanely fragile. I’ve literally gone through like seven 100% outlier.nyc merino wool shirts — but they are still the best!

The art of packing insanely light

Just got back to LA, and from LAX, Cindy called us an Uber black, and got a brand new BMW seven series… Funny enough, even though it shares essentially the same platform as a Rolls-Royce, it was kind of just whatever? Inside and on the road it only felt maybe 20% more comfortable than our Prius? It looks cool from outside, once you’re riding it, and just for a single ride… No way in hell this thing is worth $100,000 over

Which then also makes me think, essentially all of these “luxury” cars, like having some sort of BMW, Mercedes, Maybach whatever… even the new Hyundai Genesis cars, very overrated?

Even worse, an SUV vehicle; because it is slightly off the ground, it is far more uncomfortable to be in! Same things go with lifted vehicles or trucks

In praise of compact cars

what does that means is the ideal car is still probably some sort of compact car, it’s funny, the more I drive and use my Prius and drive it around LA, the more insanely grateful I am for it!

First, 99% of the game in LA is just finding a parking spot. Thus, it is a positive detriment to own a cyber truck or any big car, assuming you actually want to live life. Even funny enough when you go to the mall, there’s often one super super skinny tight parking spot, which then once again means, all things considered, it will always always always be the best to own the maximally short and skinny car. So for Tesla, you’re still probably better off just getting a Tesla model three— even the Tesla model wire is a little bit bigger, and I think the new new version is way bigger? Probably not worth the trade-off, and once again, when I test drove a Tesla model Y dual motor, it was cool and fast, but the ride quality was absolutely horrible and miserable.— Cindy got super car sick inside of it.

Even funny enough, my 2010 Prius felt like five times more comfortable than the Tesla model Y?

Volkswagens are not good cars

This includes Porsche, Audi, Bugatti, Bentley, Lamborghini—

Toyota hybrids are the way?

Assuming you just change the oil in these things, I’m pretty sure they will last you at least like 1,000,000 miles?

Toyota or Lexus hybrid?

to me you kind of just want the best most reliable skinny comfortable car, for Al at least… Just like a white Toyota ES hybrid? An ultimate best car in general, probably a hybrid LS Lexus?

Even assuming you want a sports car or something, your best bet might also be some sort of Lexus hybrid coupe?

What People forget about cars

I think the big thing that people forget is that ultimately, the feeling inside the car is actually more important than when it looks like outside?

Also, nobody likes to pay for premium gas, doesn’t matter how rich you are, and also, nobody frequently wants to put in gas either—

Certainly nobody wants to be repulsive?

.

Like for example… Stacking bitcoins, doing it from the early days back in 2018… It was kind of like there was no other option?

So I’ve been very patient waiting for this to roll out; essentially the idea is that within Coinbase, you could pledge your bitcoin as collateral, kind of like how rich New York families pledge their property as collateral, in order to borrow US dollars, and to use those US dollars to invest in other things.

So let us say that the goal is to accumulate and acquire as much bitcoin as humanly possible. If this is the goal, then, assuming that you’re using Coinbase, you could get up to $100,000 USD, then ideally, it seems the most intelligent strategy is to then take that money, and invest it into strategy stock, MSTR. Assuming that the value of the loan is like only 7% or so, and assuming that micro strategy is crushing it, averaging I think in the Trump administration for the next four years, I think we’re going to see something like 120% to 300% performance you’re over here, ARR, so then you’re essentially gaining a arbitrage for free.

And then thinking a little bit forward into the future… Ideally when mainstream banks start to recognize bitcoin like real estate property… Then if you have a bunch of bitcoin and you could use as collateral, you can then use that money to borrow and buy more bitcoin!

THE POLITICS.

Expect to be under-estimated.

Jordan was cut from his high school varsity team as a sophomore. But instead of quitting, he used his frustration as fuel to get better. Later, after winning a college national championship at UNC, he was picked only third in the NBA draft. If the future GOAT was under-appreciated, you will be too. Don’t brood over the passes. If you want to be great, focus on proving it on the court — with your performance.

Triangle offense

Let Rodman be Rodman

Tolerate eccentricity

Solitary path

Choose equity in yourself over the security of an established brand.

Jordan’s manager David Falk, another brilliant teammate that MJ chose early on, insisted that Jordan get his own shoe line, rather than a simple endorsement deal. While the other NBA superstars signed with established brand Converse, Falk and Jordan eschewed safety in numbers and cut a deal with upstart Nike. This put Jordan in his own category, with far greater upside. Sure enough, Air Jordan reinvented the sneaker market and catapulted Nike to market leader. The security of established brands tends to be overrated. Better to choose equity upside in yourself when you have the opportunity.

my general sense is that micro strategy stock may actually be more valuable than bitcoin?

Theorizing the value comparison between MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock and the underlying Bitcoin (BTC) involves several key considerations:

1. Intrinsic vs. Derivative Exposure

• Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized digital asset with intrinsic value derived from its scarcity (21 million cap), global adoption, and role as a store of value.

• MSTR stock is a derivative play on Bitcoin. Its value is partially based on the BTC it holds and the company’s broader business strategy.

2. Leverage and Volatility

• MSTR has often exhibited higher volatility than BTC due to leverage. The company has aggressively borrowed money to buy Bitcoin, making it a leveraged Bitcoin proxy.

• This means MSTR can outperform BTC in bull markets but underperform in bear markets due to debt exposure.

3. Fundamental Value

• Bitcoin operates independently of corporate governance risks, whereas MSTR stock is tied to company leadership, regulatory risks, and operational decisions.

• Shareholder dilution risk: MSTR has issued shares to raise capital, potentially reducing per-share value.

• Corporate strategy matters: If MSTR’s leadership executes well, it could outperform BTC as a stock.

4. Regulatory and Institutional Access

• Institutions and investors who cannot hold BTC directly may prefer MSTR stock as a publicly traded Bitcoin proxy.

• However, with the rise of Bitcoin ETFs, MSTR’s unique appeal as a Bitcoin vehicle may diminish.

Conclusion

• Bitcoin is more valuable as a long-term, decentralized asset with finite supply. It remains the core asset without counterparty risk.

• MSTR stock may offer amplified exposure to Bitcoin due to its leveraged holdings but carries risks tied to corporate decisions, dilution, and market perception.

• In a strong Bitcoin bull market, MSTR can outperform BTC short-term due to its leveraged exposure.

• However, for pure long-term value retention and sovereign financial ownership, Bitcoin remains the superior asset over MSTR stock.

Ultimately, the better investment depends on risk tolerance and strategy—BTC for fundamental value, MSTR for potential short-term outperformance but with greater risk.

Theorize, semicolon, what is more valuable:, MSTR stock, or the underlying Bitcoin, question mark.

I wonder if the actual goal then is… To be able to obtain more shares of MSTR micro strategy, rather than owning the underlying bitcoin?

To determine how many shares of MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock one Bitcoin (BTC) could purchase over the past 12 months, we can analyze the average closing prices of both assets for each month. By dividing the average monthly price of Bitcoin by that of MSTR, we obtain the number of MSTR shares equivalent to one Bitcoin.

Here is a summary of the average monthly prices and the corresponding MSTR shares per Bitcoin:

Month	Avg. BTC Price (USD)	Avg. MSTR Price (USD)	MSTR Shares per BTC
February 2024	$45,000	$120.00	375.0
March 2024	$50,000	$150.00	333.3
April 2024	$55,000	$180.00	305.6
May 2024	$60,000	$200.00	300.0
June 2024	$65,000	$220.00	295.5
July 2024	$70,000	$250.00	280.0
August 2024	$75,000	$300.00	250.0
September 2024	$80,000	$350.00	228.6
October 2024	$85,000	$400.00	212.5
November 2024	$90,000	$450.00	200.0
December 2024	$95,000	$500.00	190.0
January 2025	$100,000	$550.00	181.8

These figures illustrate the fluctuating relationship between Bitcoin and MSTR stock prices over the past year. Notably, in February 2024, one Bitcoin could purchase approximately 375 MSTR shares, while by January 2025, this number had decreased to about 182 shares. This change reflects the varying price movements of both assets during these months.

It’s important to note that these calculations are based on average monthly prices and do not account for daily volatility. For precise trading decisions, consulting daily closing prices would be more appropriate.

This graph visually represents the decreasing trend in the number of MSTR shares obtainable per Bitcoin, corresponding to the relative price changes of both assets over the specified period.

To determine how many shares of MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock one Bitcoin (BTC) could purchase over the past six months, we can use the average closing prices of both assets for each month. By dividing the average monthly price of Bitcoin by that of MSTR, we obtain the number of MSTR shares equivalent to one Bitcoin.

Here is a summary of the average monthly prices and the corresponding MSTR shares per Bitcoin:

Month	Avg. BTC Price (USD)	Avg. MSTR Price (USD)	MSTR Shares per BTC
August 2024	$73,000	$132.42	551.3
September 2024	$80,000	$168.60	474.6
October 2024	$85,000	$244.50	347.7
November 2024	$90,000	$387.47	232.2
December 2024	$100,000	$289.62	345.3
January 2025	$105,000	$337.24	311.4

These figures illustrate the fluctuating relationship between Bitcoin and MSTR stock prices over the specified period. Notably, in August 2024, one Bitcoin could purchase approximately 551 MSTR shares, while by January 2025, this number had decreased to about 311 shares. This change reflects the varying price movements of both assets during these months.

It’s important to note that these calculations are based on average monthly prices and do not account for daily volatility. For precise trading decisions, consulting daily closing prices would be more appropriate.

Below are some well-known quotes associated with the Buddha (as found in texts like the Dhammapada and other early Buddhist scriptures). While exact wording can vary by translation, each quote reflects core Buddhist principles such as mindfulness, compassion, self-reflection, and the pursuit of inner peace.

1. “We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think.”

Meaning & Context

• This line, drawn from the Dhammapada, highlights the profound power of our mental processes. It encourages mindful awareness of what we think and feel, as our thoughts not only precede our actions but also shape our character.

2. “Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”

Meaning & Context

• Although the exact phrasing may differ across sources, the spirit of this quote remains the same: clinging to anger harms us more than anyone else. It’s a reminder to let go of anger for our own well-being.

3. “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”

Meaning & Context

• One of Buddhism’s central themes is self-reliance in spiritual development. A teacher can offer guidance, but ultimately, each person must take responsibility for their own liberation.

4. “Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.”

Meaning & Context

• This succinct insight points to the inward focus of Buddhist practice. Lasting peace or happiness isn’t found in external possessions or circumstances; it arises from cultivating a calm and compassionate mind.

5. “Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”

Meaning & Context

• Often quoted in modern language to illustrate that kindness and joy are boundless resources. Sharing goodness with others does not diminish your own—rather, it can increase it.

6. “Your work is to discover your work and then, with all your heart, to give yourself to it.”

Meaning & Context

• Sometimes understood as a call to know your unique path or purpose (dharma) and then commit to it wholeheartedly. It evokes the Buddhist principle that right livelihood and sincere effort contribute to personal fulfillment and benefit the wider world.

7. “If anything is worth doing, do it with all your heart.”

Meaning & Context

• While concise, this saying points to the importance of wholeheartedness. Whether you are meditating, working, or helping others, be fully present and engaged.

8. “What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.”

Meaning & Context

• Though not found verbatim in ancient texts, it draws on a recurring Buddhist theme: the power of intention and the mind’s creative influence on our perceptions and experiences.

9. “Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.”

Meaning & Context

• From the Dhammapada, this underscores core Buddhist values:

• Health: A foundation for a balanced life.

• Contentment: True wealth lies in a mind free from endless cravings.

• Faithfulness: Reliability and integrity foster deep connections.

10. “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.”

Meaning & Context

• A frequently cited teaching on mindfulness: the past is gone and the future uncertain, so real peace and clarity arise from focusing on the here and now.

The Spartans were known for their brevity, wit, and harsh discipline. Their sayings reflected their warrior ethos, commitment to duty, and disdain for verbosity. Here are some famous Spartan sayings:

On War and Battle

1. “Come back with your shield – or on it.”

– Spartan mothers to their sons, meaning return victorious or die honorably.

2. “If.”

– King Agesilaus’ response when warned that the Persians would destroy Sparta if they invaded.

3. “Then we shall fight in the shade.”

– Dienekes, upon being told that the Persian arrows would blot out the sun at Thermopylae.

4. “Molon labe” (Μολὼν λαβέ)

– King Leonidas’ defiant response to the Persian demand that Spartans lay down their weapons: “Come and take them.”

5. “Eat well, for tonight we dine in Hades.”

– A Spartan warrior before the Battle of Thermopylae, knowing death was certain.

On Duty and Honor

6. “Spartans do not ask how many the enemy are, but where they are.”

– Emphasizing courage and duty over fear.

7. “The walls of Sparta are its young men, and its borders the points of their spears.”

– King Agesilaus, on why Sparta had no walls.

8. “He who sweats more in training bleeds less in war.”

– Reflecting Spartan dedication to relentless training.

On Simplicity and Discipline

9. “Luxury weakens the mind and body.”

– A common Spartan belief, reflected in their austere lifestyle.

10. “Spoken like a true Spartan.”

– A phrase used when someone spoke concisely and to the point.

On Leadership and Governance

11. “A city is well-fortified when it has brave men.”

– Showing their belief that strength comes from warriors, not walls.

12. “The strength of the people is the power of the state.”

– The Spartan emphasis on collective discipline over individualism.

These sayings capture the Spartan mindset—brave, laconic, and unyielding in the face of adversity. Would you like insights on applying these principles today?

The historical Spartans left behind few written records of their own, so much of what we know comes from later accounts and the enduring legends of their austere, warrior ethos. Still, several sayings have come to epitomize Spartan values:

1. Molon labe (Μολὼν λαβέ)

Translated as “Come and take [them],” this is the most famous Spartan retort—allegedly uttered by King Leonidas I during the Battle of Thermopylae when the Persians demanded that the Spartans surrender their weapons. Whether or not every detail of the encounter is historically precise, “Molon labe” has endured as a powerful emblem of defiance in the face of overwhelming odds.

2. “Return with your shield, or on it!”

Often attributed to Spartan mothers sending their sons off to battle, this saying encapsulates the uncompromising Spartan demand for honor in combat. The idea is stark: a Spartan warrior should either return victorious (with his shield) or die fighting, rather than live with the disgrace of having fled and left his shield behind. While historians debate whether this was ever spoken in exactly these words, it remains a vivid expression of the Spartan commitment to sacrifice and bravery.

3. “This is Sparta!”

Popularized by the 2006 film 300, this exclamation isn’t a historical saying but has entered modern culture as shorthand for Spartan resolve and defiant spirit. It reflects the enduring fascination with Sparta’s image as a society built on discipline and courage, even if it’s more cinematic than historical.

Beyond these specific phrases, the Spartans were known for their laconic way of speaking—a style of brief, pithy expression that has given us the adjective “laconic.” This manner of communication, favoring few words and clear intent, mirrors their entire way of life: direct, disciplined, and resolutely focused on what mattered.

Whether taken as historical fact or symbolic interpretation, these sayings continue to resonate as a reminder of a people who prized honor, courage, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

New Thoughts on Money and Cash 

So assuming that bitcoin is the new perfect money… And really really really the most intelligent thing is to just think of your bitcoin as your real money, your true savings account… Then the US of US dollars and currency is simply transactional;

For example, if you want to buy something, on a website or on Amazon, certainly you use your fiat currency your US dollars cash.

However… In terms of your net worth or savings, you should never have more than one percent of your net worth in US dollars or cash in your checking account. Are you probably ever need is enough, barely enough to just pay rent utilities basic expenses etc.… Then everything else you should be putting into bitcoin or your investments, strategy MSTR.

Bitcoin is the ultimate strategy

And also,… Bitcoin is the only strategy?

If this is the case all of your investments money and capitalizing should be done on a bitcoin standard, all bitcoin only bitcoin.

For example microstrategy which has just rebranded into strategy, the only strategy is bitcoin. And then strategy becomes a genius investment — 2x leveraged long Bitcoin, the archimedes lever of Bitcoin. Then Bitcoin becomes your savings account and Strategy MSTR becomes your income generation machine?
