When I was a teenager you worked in fast food. A generation later you could write code and make much more. Will ambitious kids in the next generation reach adulthood already rich from trading cryptocurrency?

(I'm not saying I like the idea. On the whole I don't. I'd rather ambitious people learned positive-sum games.)

I'd like my kids to have at least one service industry or manual labor job before coding or trading in anything. Call it an entitlement prophylactic.

Yeah writing code for pay is (typically) vastly more beneficial to society than trading cryptocurrencies

My hope is that the kids born in the Hamptons might need to get a real job and be productive, instead of counting on an inheritance of real estate and stocks they expect to grow at 5-10% per year. BTC is just changing who can afford to be lazy

It is positive-sum. The feds are printing new dollars all the time.

Even in seemingly zero sum games like trading there is a positive-sum side effect of creating liquidity for the greater ecosystem.

Learning the ins and outs of certain zero-sum games (like money) is fuel for the execution of your positive-sum ambitions.

But some things are not meant to be profitable in dollars, but in heart. We are losing that side of humanity. I want a profitable business geared to students...I want to build a school because I want society to succeed.
