Show Notes

What are you most deeply held ethical boundaries?In Episode #332 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: why we had a recent enforced break, the Generational Wealth With Cryptocurrency podcast, why we both are wary of money coming from sponsorship or advertising, topics of conversation that wouldn't be talked about, why I won't be fighting in any ways, Juan's requirements to be fit and achieve his goals, why I try to never tell a lie and the reasons we hold all these views.A huge thanks to Petar the Philosopher, Dave Jones and our mystery streamer.

Ethical lines: A good friend of mine asked me to baptize his son a number of years ago. I wanted to but I decided that it would be hypocritical of me to stand in a church and pretend to believe in something I don't actually believe in, so I told him I couldn't do it. Unfortunately he didn't understand and hasn't spoken to me since. It really sucks losing my friend but looking back I feel good about being honest and adhering to my ethical standard.
