I said earlier in the essay, and like I've got a very triggering sentence in there, which is most people think that Bitcoin's greatest contribution will be to lift the masses up and help the week.

0:12.3

And I say, while that will likely occur, but not for the reasons you think it will, it is my unpopular belief that the more important contribution impact to mankind will be that

0:22.2

Bitcoin makes the strongest, stronger, the best, better and the most powerful, more powerful.

0:29.7

And I even like, you know, qualify it with the next sentence.

0:32.6

I say, I can already feel you squirming as you read that line.

0:35.6

So please read it again and then allow me to clarify why this is good.

Hey everybody, welcome to the What is Money Show.

0:50.0

I am thrilled to have you here joining me on my mission to help shine light on the corruption of money.

Now, if this is your first time listening to The What Is Money Show, I strongly recommend that you go back to episodes one through nine first, which lays a lot of the groundwork for many of the concepts that we explore on the show.

1:29.1

that you can start other than episode one of this show. Now, a little bit about this show and how

1:34.1

1:40.2

from direct sponsorships. And I strive to be very selective about the sponsors that I work with,

1:46.4

specifically only using sponsors that I use personally, and also choosing sponsors that have values

1:52.5

which are well aligned to the values expressed on this show, such as freedom, education,

1:58.5

self-sovereignty, et cetera. So what I'm going to do now is a few ad reads right at the top of the show and I'll do a few

2:04.4

more ad reads in the middle.

2:05.7

And I hope you'll take the time to listen to them as again, these are hand-selected sponsors

2:10.1

and I think you'll like what they have to offer.
