@EricBalchunas It kills me that so few understand this. Thanks Eric for stating the obvious. You are gradually becoming my favorite bitcoiner.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@EricBalchunas Can Vanguard create their Bitcoin ETF and charge 5 basis points? That would be a legendary comeback.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@realtwolf @EricBalchunas No, they still underperform

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@AuroreLalucq Non, c’est vous la blague.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@EricBalchunas Investors are fed up with being treated like children by pseudo gatekeepers. Boggle + Bitcoin is a match in heaven! These people have the same HODL philosophy.

@Ric_RTP I’m sorry but this is absolute BS

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

J’ai un petit historique personnel avec elle. Lorsque j’avais 22 ans, j’ai fais un stage dans son centre de recherche.

Lorsque j’ai demandé s’il y avait une compensation (même de quelques centaines d’euros) pour les 6 mois de travail, elle m’a regardé comme si ma question était indécente.

C’est à ce moment que j’ai décidé de m’orienter dans le privé. Quelque part, je lui dois beaucoup!

@EricLarch @FyceAlvey @Franck_tayelore Effectivement, tout ce dirigisme mal placé montre une totale déconnection des “élites” politiques avec la réalité économique. Que savent-ils de la “productivité” d’un investissement?

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

Ce calcul fait très mal mais il est parfaitement exact.

Malheureusement, on ne sort pas de la retraite par répartition comme ça parce que cela voudrait dire abandonner en rase campagne les retraites actuels.

On peut simplement regretter que le passage à la capitalisation n’ait pas eu lieu quand c’était beaucoup plus facile…

@dotkrueger No wonder double-income households have become a necessity.

@BitPaine @DCondy75 @BTC_JCook @LynAldenContact “Bit Pain”, you lost this battle. Be gracious and admit it. Just think before you post next time.

@IIICapital If the stock of gold tripled in 75 years. That is “only” 1.5% annual growth. Much higher than Bitcoin moving forward (basically zero), but not as bad as I thought.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@BritishHodl Are you paid by YieldMax to promote MSTY? That Bloomberg article had your face on it and I have to say I was pretty disappointed to see that. At least don’t pretend you rejected every sponsoring offer you got. Be honest.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@dotkrueger Clinical. Thanks for reminding the kids that it may take a decade.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@TheBTCTherapist Stop being such a crybaby and thank the universe that you found Bitcoin.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@Bitcoin_Teddy End the Fed

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@mert @Digital_Liam_ @icobeast I have 2 kids and they don’t care that we are renting. They can’t tell the difference.

Your instinct is right. Don’t buy unless it becomes a detail in your balance sheet.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@pepemoonboy Debt free, multiyear money market fund, sure.
Owning a home, why?

All your points are so valid. Don’t buy the home ownership fallacy. It does not reduce stress or improve financial stability. It’s just a lifestyle decision.

[Pierre Maarek @pierremaarek]

@lindsaystamp3 The fact that you are terrified means you get it.

Unpopular opinion here: a 15bps ETF is a very cheap way to avoid this stress while securing your future (and your loved ones).

If you were buying gold, would you store it yourself at home?
