Personal Insights
After a quarter century of helping people build financial independence through discipline, systems, and smart strategy, I see Bitcoin as the most powerful foundation for long-term freedom. Its capped supply and trustless design aren’t just innovative—they’re liberating.
As a lifelong golfer, I’ve learned the value of patience, discipline, and playing the long game. Bitcoin rewards the same mindset. You can’t fake a good round, and you can’t fake sound money. When you can trust the rules—and the math—you can build something that lasts.
