Bitcoin is the FIRST perfect and incorruptible money.”
I don't believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can't take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can't stop.”

§ 09 · Final chapter
It's not just about the money #; it's about living in a money system that takes care of the future
By Tom Karadza
What happens if the world adopts sound (perfect) money like Bitcoin?
We go back to the place where people can offer their community their personal highest and best use. Whereas right now, people make decisions on what to do as a career, many times with association of the highest possible income. For example, a lot of people will go into finance in because they know in the finance industry that there's money to be made, but it burns their soul whether they will admit it or not.
But some of those people that go there are perhaps the best guitarists, the best songwriters, the best bricklayers, the best craftsmen, the best creators of everything in our society. Maybe they actually wanted to be a doctor, maybe they wanted to be a veterinarian, maybe they wanted to help kids, but instead they go into finance to pay their bills. Bitcoin will bring us back to a world where everyone's individual personal and best use can be what you offer the community, because the money you earn from doing that will be of value.
And when you save it, it will go up in value so that no matter what you're doing, you can build a financial freedom asset base for yourself, as opposed to now, you trade your soul for the highest income job that maybe isn't serving you. It destroys you as a person, and you are not serving the community as well as you could. And I think Bitcoin brings us back to people living their true selves and being rewarded for it.
When you have the wise elders return, who have enough savings where they can go to the young people and teach them things, and they're not worried about paying their rent and groceries or if they have enough money to live the next 10 years. What about if we had elders who had savings that went up in value?
Then they don't have to worry about these things and they can go spend time in the schools. They can go spend time taking care of the kids. They can donate extra savings back in to the community and feed the next generation instead of just worrying that the dollar bank account that they have, that they're being told by some financial planner, "I think you'll have enough to live." What kind of life is that? Bitcoin brings us back to a better community.
