As Bitcoin<\/a>, cryptocurrencies<\/a>, and other crypto<\/a> technologies continue to rally, the thought that came to my mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you become a Bitcoin or Crypto Billionaire, *then what*?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How many iPhone’s and Lamborghini’s can you buy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It seems right now, we still look at fiat currency<\/a>, or money in general as a way of ‘making us happier’ in life by buying ourselves more luxury goods, more fancy homes, more luxury cars, more luxury cameras, more luxury equipment, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But let us not forget– we are still living through COVID. In this brave new COVID world<\/a>, some thoughts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. What is the point of owning a luxury car, if all the clubs and social places are closed anyways … you got nowhere to go, and nowhere to ‘flex’ it.<\/li>
  2. In a time where we cannot really travel<\/a>, what will you use your money for?<\/li>
  3. In the past a lot of us wanted to save up money to buy a home, but now that we are stuck at home all day (and hate it) … do we truly desire to buy a home?<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The desire to focus on your art work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    I think most people just want to ‘not have to work their 9-5 job anymore’ in order to focus on their art work. It is funny, because before COVID, it seems the traditional thought was:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I wish I won a billion dollars, so I can quit my job, travel the world, pursue my passions, etc.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    But once again … we can no longer really ‘travel the world’. And even if you had a billion dollars (whether in fiat currency or crypto), would that really help you unlock that much motivation, potential and energy to focus on your artistic passions?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
