That moment of realization that the social contract you believed yourself to be a party to was an illusion all along is not an easy one. Allow me to elaborate by way of an, only very tangentially related, anecdote.
Good one. I had my credit account crossed with someone else in the 80's, one little credit card I got at 18 had me tagged as 25k in welched debt. I couldn't even finish school because I couldn't get credit, and I thought that credit card companies only gave cards to students with jobs.
Yes, I know, that fucking hilarious.
It wasn't till a few years later when I was buying my first Porsche that a bank told me why I was being declined. Back then you had no right to look at your file, and he pointed it out on the screen. A couple of calls and a letter and the 25k mistake was off my file.
And I didn't go a day in my life after that without some sort of fucking card offer. Which I tossed. Yes I had to dump school and live on the street, but I learned how to survive anyway.
Never again. Bitcoin won't fuck me like that.
