A wise man once said:
One tenth of a coin's enough,
To set you up good.
That is pushing it.
I am not sure if I would go that far, but anyone who is starting their bitcoin journey may well take some time before he is able to even reach 1/10th of a coin, and so in that regard, I have trouble understanding why it would be an amount that someone would be wanting to bet in the context of gentlemen rather than in the context of showing (or faking) how BIG your balls might be.

Yes, it does sound like pushing it.
0.1 BTC.
Set for life.
Can you imagine? Will there be a time when this teeny-weeny amount of coin could get one up to "fuck you" status? Let's see... 1 sat = $1 --> 0.1 BTC = $10,000,000. I know this may seem like a super-rare, super-optimistic, super-bullish, super-long-term scenario, but never say never. That's what I've learned in my journey in these here parts.
Regardless, I feel that those of us holding BTC in the double digits are already quite close to "fuck you" status (only a matter of 2-3 years to attain it). Those with 3-digit corn are already there, but, surely, this also depends on where they live and what their desires and life targets are... It's all subjective to a degree, but 3-digit corn is surely a safe "fuck you" status level currently, for the typical down-to-earth westerner not intending to go to excesses when it comes to LHB activities.
So, yes, the above mentioned Sunday haiku is, indeed, aiming far into the future, but is also taking into account that Bitcoin time does tend to run faster than our clocks, so there is a chance that "far" may not be so far after all.
