On the weekend, a young couple came to our house as guests. Their child is one year older than mine, and since our families haven't seen each other for a long time, we arranged to have a simple meal together and let the kids play.



In the chat, the woman is very satisfied with her current life situation: her husband earns money to support the family, she stays home full-time to take care of the kids, they have no house and no car, they spend all their monthly income, and she sleeps in every day. To be honest, I really envy this easy life, and I keep urging them not to buy a house—"Unless you can pay in full, taking on a mortgage is too painful! We're currently burdened by the mortgage and want to dissuade everyone we meet."

At this point, her husband replied: "We are quite relaxed, but we really haven't saved anything."

I smiled and mediated the situation: "With a beautiful and virtuous wife and a lovely daughter, isn’t this the best life for a harmonious family?"

He sighed and said, "What if I get laid off after I turn 35 and can't find a job with my current salary?"

I hesitated for a moment and suggested: "If you have some spare money, you might consider allocating some to Bitcoin..."

Before I finished speaking, I was interrupted: "With the price so high now, going in would just make me a bag holder, right?"

I was speechless and didn't bring it up again. Indeed, it's really hard to communicate with people who have different perspectives. This also reminds me to discuss these kinds of topics less with the people around me.
