Although the key lessons can be written in a few bullet points, the story helps the reader internalize the teachings.

I think we misunderstimate the impact a few fundamental lessons on finance can do to a person’s life. Especially when the person is oblivious to it.

I’ve seen it first hand multiple times now. I give away this book all the time and and have seen nothing but good come from it.

That pointing out an 'issue' that is common in gold/fiat/crytpo is not a great argument against crypto.

Ditto. Maybe you read my comment wrong but I am arguing for a store of value - not a currency. And I am asking why it should fail as a store of value because I don't see how gold has any advantage over it.

Gold mines are connected to genocide, funding wars and illegal trade.

Is my logic wrong in pointing out a 'flaw' in gold when someone else points out a 'flaw' in bitcoin?

I think criminals will use any tool in ways that they were not meant to be used. This does not make the tool/subject at hand the culprit.

What currency is not being used in the drug market?

I would love to have a rational debate and hear objective arguments agaisnt bitcoin vs gold that can be applied uniquely to bitcoin or rather that dont apply to both.

Scarcity? No intrinsic value? Speculative? Thefts? Used in illicit ways?

All these apply to both gold and bitcoin.

"Gold has been historically valuable to humans". So have many other rocks, flowers, spices, etc.

I am geniuenly interested in seeing why Bitcoin should fail as being a store of value.
