The Call That Changed the Way My Brain Works
He called me last week to talk about Bitcoin. He is 68 years old. Not to make fun of it. Nor to warn me. To find out how to get some.
"They're changing the rules," he said. "My retirement account can hold crypto now." That's when I knew. Things have changed for good.
This man told me three years ago that crypto was like gambling. That I need to 'get a real investment strategy.' Be a grown-up and put money in my 401(k). He now wants to know which wallet I use. Do you understand what this means? We're no longer early. We're on time.
Trump's order is more than just policy. This is permission. Getting $12 trillion in retirement funds to flow into crypto. My dad is about to pay for my retirement, but he doesn't know it yet. A lot of other boomers are about to pay for yours.
The math that made me quit my job
There are $12 trillion in 401(k)s right now. The potential for crypto adoption is unprecedented. This isn't just about Bitcoin anymore - it's about the entire financial system shifting.
