Value Stack: A Bitcoin Podcast
Natural Winemaking, Risk-Taking, and Low-Time-Preference Mindset with Ben Justman | Value Stack 35
Mar 27 2023 • 2hr 0m
Show Notes
In Value Stack 35, we discuss growing up in Colorado and the process of making natural wine - from the soil composition, planning and time involved, to marketing and finding a niche market in selling to bitcoiners!
We hash out what it's like being a millennial in 2023, and how difficult it can be to explain or understand how money, the economy, or bitcoin works - especially to peers. We wrap talking about how cities and rural living often comes with different worldviews, the nature of risk-taking in life, and how to develop resolve and conviction in your own ideas.
This was a really genuine conversation that I thoroughly enjoyed. I hope you do too, and please consider supporting Ben's small business vineyard in the links below!
