That debate you had with Peter Schiff was brutal.

I turned that clown off anymore because he's so disingenuous.

And so the whole like intrinsic value argument, I'm like, come on, Peter, are you kidding me?

Like, I literally quoted Mises to him.

You know, value does not inhere in things.

It exists within us.

I had a terrible ego.

And the best thing that ever happened to me was that incident that just crushed my spirit.

They tried to control

media. They try to control money. They try to suppress dissenters with violence and coercion and

fear and all the things. What better soil to plant the seed of uncounterfittable money into?

I couldn't even imagine a better situation. Paper money will always return to its intrinsic value.

Zero. So you discovered about yourself that you are someone that can push themselves to failure. I just lifted the nose up to about 70 degrees,

kept it burn, and thought, I'm going to see how high this thing would go. Wow. Yeah, exactly. No thought

process whatsoever. This is that misallocation of capital we always talk about in all government spending.

Right here.

Don't interrupt a great story.

Sorry.

With facts.

So, if you're struggling and really having a tough time in life, just know that sometimes

all you have to do is get through it.

You just got to get through it.
