It's fine to hold convictions others don't share

Quote

a lot about this and I feel like it's not inappropriate to have sort of convictions about things. And even if nobody, even if other people don't share those convictions.

Summary

Before the value-for-value discussion with guest Chad F, Dave reflects that it's not inappropriate to hold convictions even when other people don't share them. His own: Bitcoin is a modern hard asset that shares gold's store-of-value role, but is far easier to get into and out of.

Not in the audio. Guest episode (Chad F; 0.35 threshold). The 7-cue Dave run follows Adam's 'To the boardroom?' prompt and continues the speaker's own setup ('I knew we're gonna be talking to Chad today'), so it isn't the guest. Nearby macro-economics passages (Goldman Sachs, government spending) are also labeled Dave but were skipped as uncertain.
