Why?

Because majority of my income is in bitcoin, so it's a whole lot easier. No transferring to fiat, no hitting a bank account, et al.

No paying taxes ...

Go complain to Bezos, as Amazon doesn't pay any taxes...

Or Trump, or pretty near any politician for that matter...

At least they do lodge tax returns. Interesting you think Trump is your role model.

Follow your own fucken rules. No personal insults.As one of the great sages of the Forum puts it:
Is there any need for that, what does it add to the board? FFS try to stop it, it doesn't impress anyone and it's you who ends up coming across looking like a knob, not the other person.

Honestly? You're someone who thinks Pfizer's vaccine is made with dead monkeys, so your opinion doesn't exactly matter to me...

Stupid can't distinct monkey's virus and dead monkey? Well, do you still think you are smart, Matt? Or rich? Oh, maybe forever youth?

Matt, what about "vector vaccine"? Is it vaccine or not? By the way: India will supply Canada by vaccine, because other developed countries think more about own interests. may be it will be licensed Russian Sputnik. Are you ready to get humanitarian help?

may be it will be licensed Russian Sputnik

the main advantage of the Russian vaccine is that it does not require an injection - the preferred delivery methods are to spray it either on the recipient's doorknob or in their underwear

I love it! I was given some Bitcoin in 2015 and it goes a long way today!

$7.50 from back then is almost $2000 today. Enough to pay for a wild week in Thailand

Besides, have you seen the price of bitcoin lately? You're going to have a rough time wiping the smile off my face.
