But yes, it has changed the way we view money, it may not have brought about a complete change to our spending habits, or how we treat money and send it to one another, but it's definitely a nice spot to be knowing there's an alternative that growing each day as preferable to anything else we've ever known.

P.S. Nothing says expert than the conflicting advice of "never allow emotions to do the thinking" followed immediately by "go with your gut feeling".
