How money works

Since I no longer think we will be going to space anytime soon warning climate change youtube channel. I have been stressed out and trying to figure out what to do. In that time, I had an epifiany about A.I., (G)adult (O)santa (D)claus, Bitcoin’s proof of work system, and since everyone gets one conspiracy theory to believe in, I found mine [I think there is a fascism uprising in the mist, but shhhh]) and it seems luck may have put me in a place I can do something about at least some of that wild mess. I am taking the time to figure out how money and finance really works. If you are also interested, please join me. I hope to figure out how to get disqus.com working again.

Bullet points will be updated with links as they I write them out.
