Notice we (G36 and me) did not attack/criticize you on your commitment to live in IL?

You haven't. G post personal post about me living in IL in almost every comment he makes. Just look at his commenting, it's all personal. I have no beef with you. My statement stands though and no one has a counter argument besides family and friends. That's not a knock on you, I get the reasoning. The rampant complaining here, elsewhere, and my personal experiences in CA are enough for me to know what the state is. A "pretty" shit hole that's on fire and has no water unless it takes it from others. Haven't even touched politics and the batshit crazy leftoid crap...

Is IL a shit hole, sure some parts. I'm not in those parts. It's a large state as well and most of it is amazing outside of Chicago, which is still amazing compared to any city in CA. This is why travel is important. Your corner of the world is not better than any other. Frankly for the wealth that is there, it's pretty sad what it has become. Stay for family or friends all you want, but don't claim it to be some glorious place.

If G simply answered any question about BTC or crypto, maybe he'd deserve some respect. You do know he's a BTC troll/spammer though, right?

beautiful day in SoCal! And Bitcoin is closer to 100k than to 0. Happy Thursday!

So no fenced yard. That makes sense. lol. Talk about those gains....

I knew you read it.....but your pretend you didnt read about my 11x profit with Cardano and BinanceCoin.
Note, i only sold a small portion of my cardanos.....will sell heavily when it hits 5-10USD.

love those daily hikes/walks....beautiful weather and nice views. Sry, I just realized that triggers you....We know how weather looks like in IL.
My bad!

Unless you surf, there's zero reason to live in CA.

Parents. Adult kids. Siblings. Nieces. Nephews. Cousins. In-Laws. A lifetime's worth of friends (those who haven't left already.)

It's family values, sir. Maybe that's not reason enough for you, but it is for me.

Besides, when the SHTF, Reno beckons.

Notice we (G36 and me) did not attack/criticize you on your commitment to live in IL? We are on Plan-A. (Plan-B being,to degrade others to elevate ourselves. We're not on Plan-B. We're on Plan-A: we do what we do without degrading others' choices).

You know an awful lot about us and about where we live. Even though you haven't lived here.

We like to walk our dogs even though we have fenced yards. We like it, and the dogs like it. And when it's not raining and not smokey, which is most of the time, the weather is lovely for walking dogs. Even though we have fenced yards. You should try it.

B.A.C.A.H. says

You should try it.

I like different people and places. If you like the same thing every day, good for you. Sounds miserable. I'll discover new places, people and things to do. I'll visit CA, but not a chance in hell I'd live there.

CA isn't the best place in the US by a long shot all things factored in. If it's your best place, good for you. I'm not trying to get you to move. Just letting you know what much of the country thinks of CA outside of CA. It's not a destination anymore with was has happened. ID, MT and TX are much more popular. CA lost its luster.

There's a reason people with $100M contracts move out of CA. The taxes are decimal points to them. It's a shit hole.

@B.A.C.A.H. is killing it. Spot on again! :) Why wouldnt i walk my dog through on the trails ......and what has that to do with my backyard. I love the time outside enjoying the weather, views and meeting other people on the trails :)

G36 says

Yes. With 2 masks. Fires. Liberal bull shit to the max. Karen's. Unfunded pensions in the worlds wealthiest individual territory/state. Things are just great... lol.

The people you meet walking your dog are pieces of shit. They'll yell at you if you don't wear a mask OUTSIDE!!! You can't go out to eat without a mask. Jesus, you don't get it. You live in a hell hole and don't even understand it. Others here do that live in your utopia of feces and needles. Get out. Travel. You'll learn. Until then you can just keep yelling MAAAA! MEATLOAF!!!

There are good and bad people everywhere. Even in the worst shithole imaginable there are little spots of paradise.

I like California, it's home. I also like to travel. One of the best things about California is that the best and brightest from around the world move here. There are a lot of good reasons to stay, and some really good reasons to leave.

The same could be said about anywhere.

But the point is, bitcoin is a scam that make some traders some money and depend on fools to HODL in order to keep the scam going.

You sure know an awful lot about where we live, even though you don't live here.

In the past several weeks I've walked over 100 miles on different streets in my city in California, some walking dog, most not. Never encountered such a person like you cite here, from your non-boots-on-the-ground knowledge of a place you never lived. Seen homeless and exchanged "good morning" with some of them, mostly along river banks and under freeway overpasses. But no assholes like you cite here, from your non-experience.

Maybe, like Onvacation cited here, we do travel. How would you know?, - we just don't boast about it.

What I have observed, is much more experiential eye-opening from walking about in neighborhoods in my city spanning all the demographics. Yesterday I walked in the posh part of my city where that smug-asshole-Texas-bashing-prick-non-Californian-who-lives in California (I think his name is Bret Alder) resides. I walked within a few blocks of his residence. Other times in neighborhoods you and even we locals would call shitty. Lots more eye-opening than traveling to tourist destinations and resorts (yes I have done that, too) which are mostly filled with entitled petty bourgeois like you and me from the US and other developed countries.

I could boast about all that sh*t, so could Onvacation, if we wanted to. But we don't want to.

There is truth to what you say about the needles and the human feces on the sidewalks in parts of SF. I have seen that for myself. But that's not the whole state of California, just like the combat zones in Chicago are not the whole state you live in.

Chill out, sir.

B.A.C.A.H. says

You're not understanding what I'm doing. I'll leave it at that with regards to the CA trashing. I have no beef with you or your state. Just outing a troll and spammer (not you) is all. CA is fine and has its flaws like any place. IL has massive property taxes and one of the deadliest cities (well neighborhoods) in the country/world. I wouldn't live in CA ever, but it's a fine place, just not remotely worth it financially for what is delivered.

I love travel though and won't apologize for it. I guess my goal is to motivate people to do it. See different things, places and people like you mention on your walks. I just prefer to do it on a plane and see completely different areas that aren't familiar so I can learn. It's good for you. I get I can come across as pompous, but I'm just excited about it and want to share. No different than someone bragging about losing 10lbs. Would you shame that person? I wouldn't.

I know I'll get this flipped on me, but I'll keep repeating it. Make money all you want on crypto. I want people to make money. Don't try and sell a scam though to others, just say I made money and move on. Call me a vigilante ass hole all you want, I know I'm right. Tell tale sign is when the spammers/pumpers won't answer logical questions. That's why I'm bashing CA. The dude bashes IL in every single post, yet you don't have a problem with that? Not trashing you, but that's rather hypocritical.

Onvacation says

Yes. I'm just countering a troll that I don't think has been anywhere in his life. I shouldn't waste my time. I like CA. I also like FL, MT, CO, AZ, WI, WA, OR, MO and surprisingly Alabama. Puerto Rico, USVI and other Caribbean islands rock as well. Mexico is growing on me too. Really want to get to Alaska.

I'll never be settled in one area and just sit there and not frequently see things. Won't happen at this point. Not that there's anything wrong with people that do either. Life choice. I'll go to CA probably another 10-20 times in my life depending how long I'm here. I like it. I just don't like people that pump it like it's the best things knowing damn well it's massively flawed. And then bash my state having never been. I've been to CA a dozen times roughly, most for 4-7 days. I'm sure there are great parts. Of places I've traveled I'm extremely underwhelmed with CA outside of the scenery that can be found in other states.

I'll have fun in rain, snow, cold, sunshine, etc. The weather fall back for me is a cop out. Especially considering how messed up CA is with homeless, illegals, drugs, etc. I also have to fall back on the users here that bash it almost daily. I hear about how bad it is mainly and I've also been. I think I have a decent understand of the place having traveled it from the northern most point to souther a couple times. Not enough to "know" it like someone that's lived there, but I've seen enough to have an idea.

Either way, G won't even answer a simple question about where he's traveled. It is fact that wealthy people travel. He could lie for all I care. He claims to be wealthy from crypto. I call BS and the guy won't answer a question. He spams/pumps crypto. I'm guessing he's paid to pump. This isn't our first go around either.

Not you OV, but if someone wants to defend a quote manipulator go ahead. Just diminishes what can be great conversation here. And maybe I'm wrong for engaging a troll. But defend what someone is questioning. G doesn't do that.

@G36 How about just talking about Bitcoin but not the other users personally?

@Patrick, agreed. Its just not easy with someone like @WookieMan who constantly gets personal.

Hasn't been to IL that's for sure and bashes it in almost every post. We get a bad rap and maybe I'm hypocritical of CA for the same reasons. I've been to most major cities in the country for multiple nights. Chicago has rough spots, but it's probably the best American city I've been to. Boston would be the only one that I really haven't experienced as an adult.

The rest of IL is basically farm communities. Wholesome, super nice people that will give you the shirt off their back. My wife was doing something for work just the other day on a road. Some woman drove up and asked if she needed help and offered to give her a ride thinking her car broke down (again, not a guy).

CA is massive, but most of it is concentrated along the coasts. Urban areas blow. I've lived in Chicago, Geneva and now.... I won't say, but rural. Nothing beats rural. 5-15 years in each place.

I'm sure rural CA is great too. I like CA. My experience has been negative and that's not me just messing with a troll. I honestly like Patnet because you guys seem like the cool Californians I've experienced. Not all are bad, but the "hey dude" CA vibe and personality is not what is happening it real life. Most I know there seem miserable and it shows here on patnet quiet frequently.

Winters and humidity are blah, but IL is a good place to live if you give it a chance. Just like CA, though it's financially fucked up like IL is. Biden will fix that for both of us though....

Fact is there are better places than CA and he makes grand claims that it's the best. I don't claim IL is the best. It's the best for me. But he trolls and says IL sucks having never been. Can't answer a question. We may not agree on things, but I'm at least having a dialog with you. G doesn't.

HunterTits says

Because this is religion for him, I think.

This. I don't believe in god or any religion, but at least with those there's historical context and literature to kind of back it up. And morally it's at least seemingly beneficial, though people use it as a cover a lot. Islam is bad though.

If I asked a Catholic person about their religion they'd answer. This crypto religion. No one can answer a fucking question. Everything is a scam to part you from your money. That's what commerce and trade is. Crypto is literally nothing but a spreadsheet or a program. Now a program could help you streamline rental car reservations and is value. Crypto streamlines nothing. You're just trading USD or other existing currencies for another "currency" supposedly.

I'm open to having a conversation about it, but the other side has to answer one question. They haven't.

You don't answer a question. Thought I'd throw out a softball question and see if you could answer. You didn't. That's how we got here with the travel. We did try to discuss BTC and crypto with you, you didn't want to. Then you went personal. There are threads and comments of evidence I'm right. Crypto is good in your world, but you've failed to sell anyone on it. I'm sorry that disappoints you.

Dude, you never answered a question from anyone. Stop with the BS. It wasn't just me.

Others have brought up perfect examples of why BTC is crap and you just mock them with it. You don't answer what they asked you. That's trolling. And then posting links to crap sites and not responding to valid criticism. That's spam. You don't have to like what I'm saying, but that's what it is.

If you want to troll cryptocurrencies you could create your own blog and then you could censor people who disagree with you.

Also pumping same crap like election2020 (blocked) Some people have limited intellectual capacity. If I see same crap from G36, I'd block him too to stop wasting time.
Crypto in the current form is purely gamble to find next greater fool. Mainly used for contraband that destroys communities.

Rin says

In another thread ...

Just for some fun, I've decided to run a weekly price bar chart, with Fibonaccis on the whole thing ...



Here's the scoop, now that bigger institutes, along with the retail traders are into this speculation, there are actually trading zones for this thing because there are lots of players, not just the penny stock speculators.

So since last week's bearish candle engulfs the prior week's bullish one, we're on a retest of the price near the 0.618% Fibonacci retracement level. If that level holds, we have a bounce in place ... ready to go.

If it falls through that region w/ no intraweek support, then it falls to the next trading zone, and so on.

For this to be a bust, it needs to get back to the baseline.

I suspect that the big fish will issue a huge buyback in the 23K range, if not earlier (29K-35K). Sure, this thing may evaporate in the fu...

As a serious question:

I understand how easy it is to make money doing nothing for society, do you feel guilty only making money doing nothing to improve society, or do you think you improve society in a way I cannot see?

I think I can easily make money by being a sociopath, but even as an atheist, I want to hold onto my humanity. Are you sure you've held onto this? You're fucking a plastic doll, and before that whores.

Do you have any obligation to other people - and by that I mean do you have any feeling for them? I know this is a heady question.

For a long time, a very long time, I was a vegetarian because I realized I couldn't kill an animal, I simply could not end a life. I suspect you see this as weakness, but I see a lankness of compassion. Within my lifetime I've experienced compassion. Useless compassion for the most part.

I strongly believe our only worth of existence is making another life better. You may laugh at this, but I guarantee I'm the best dog owner you've ever talked to. My best experience was improving a life. I did dog rescue and fostering for a decade, and the most broken and miserable dogs, I kept and built up, only to have them die on me. This was my most rewarding part of my life and the most painful part of my life, so far. They were "just dogs" but I was an truly actually an exceptional owner. They had a better existence than 99% of human beings, and better than 99.999% of a dog's life. Vicarious joy is wonderful.

Rin, find something you can love. But - find something you can actually love. It's beneficial for them and you, benefit them. Improve a life, and get something out of it as well. Love isn't selfish.

But I warn you, love is a commitment through life. A dog is merely 14 to 18 years at most. A human is a full lifetime. Even so, 14 years is a long time.

I understand how easy it is to make money doing nothing for society, do you feel guilty only making money doing nothing to improve society, or do you think you improve society in a way I cannot see?

Both. I wouldn't feel guilty. But if I get richer, I indirectly help society because with my profits I am able to buy more rentals and be a good/fair landlord. Also, Investing in Bitcoin helps society greatly: Banks used to have a monopoly. Now you can be your own bank.

I also like your dog story. We got a 2 year old doggy and I love improving his and my life by walking through the rolling hills in this beautiful SoCal weather.

G36 says

Banks used to have a monopoly.

What are you talking about? Trucking is a monopoly with what you're saying. It makes no sense. There are multiple banks and transactional vendors in USD. Visa, Discover, Chase, BoA, etc. There's competition. Because they charge a fee makes no difference. If there's a fee free way, vendors aren't going to reduce the cost of goods. BTC has no net benefit besides maybe some of the tech. Ultimately there are no assets or value outside of trading it like digital video game coins. It's a game.
