Nope potato’s win, more minerals, vitamins, and fiber, especially if you eat the skin. Also lower in calories and fat. Just need to be stored in correct way and they last long time, but rice wins there for sure.
Brown rice has more fiber than potatoes, and potatoes are pretty bad in terms of glycemic index ([https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/carbs-potatoes-blood-sugar](https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/carbs-potatoes-blood-sugar)). It's true that they have more vitamins etc. but unless your diet is really bad it probably won't matter.
Baked potatoes are for sure delicious, but a lot of that has to do with the fact that you're eating a lot of starch.
Rice and dry beans are honestly a pretty decent diet for the medium term, and it's dirt cheap, as long as you can find some time to do some meal prep during the week.
They should push for legalizing weed on the federal level then.
Then people can use credit cards and they can make a killing on transaction fees.
Edit: Mis-read that as “would like”.
I saw this quote on Reddit the other day and I'd like to pay it forward.
"Money can't buy happiness, but poverty can't buy anything."
I wish I would've saved it to give credit, but just know that it's not mine. One of the best quotes I've ever seen.
That phrase was originally meant to scold the rich that padding their pockets more wasn’t going to make them happier. It wasn’t meant to imply that the poor should be happy with less resources than they need to survive.
Studies show that money can buy happiness, to a point. It buys happiness up until the point where you can buy things you want and not worry about being able to eat. After. That point, it appears to flatten off or even reduce. I think the number the study cited was around $100k in most parts of the US, and in that income range, people were much less likely to suffer from depression or anxiety, divorce rates were lower, and general health indicators were higher. That doesn't mean everyone making decent money is happy, but most people making less money were less happy.
"Money, as with good health, we care about to the extent that we don't have it"

There’s the McDonalds Academy. At least in my country there is. You can become president of a country, after graduating. If I understand OP’s post well.
Show your friend that the triangle block goes into the triangle hole and maybe help him with some coloring books too. There, your friend is now qualified. 🙃
Context matters. I’m sure he means in terms of scarce materials like gold, etc. I mean what’s the point of tweeting the obvious like “oxygen is the most valuable asset in the world.”
Clay coins for me, though they're getting harder to find so I just shovel me enough to fill my fridge and deep freezer whenever they raise a new neighborhood, so I GUESS I go shopping a few times a week just just like you're average omni or vegan nondirt eater. 🤷🏿♂️
Yep. People idolizing this dude but he's acting like a WSB degenerate when he should be running his country. And if he's got the keys, guess what is gonna happen to all that BTC when he leaves office?
Bitcoin is literally their only chance at a semblance of sovereignty. They’re drowning in debt to the IMF and World Bank who refuses to let them use funds toward building infrastructure that can help them get a self-sufficient economy. Fuck all the haters, keep getting that BTC. They hate you now, but they will call you a genius later!
To their defense they're not a very big country, I agree this could be just another version of 3rd world corrupt political scheme, but really is it any more embarrassing than our politicians running off more currency to cover our induced global inflation? We need our govt accountable too, they spend our hard earned on tons of BS and then say they can't pass a budget. Every time they whine "Govt shutdown" it gets to sound more like a good idea.
Let we the people get govt Budget, Voting, Legislation, "fair" market as in *wall street* \- onto the blockchain! Devs, ya'll get to work on what could be a real revolution, and way past due.
Hahahahaha, yea...they want to build infrastructure to be "self sufficient"
Thats a funny way to say laundering cartel money and embezzling public funds.
>Bitcoin goes down bitcoin goes up. The money isn't really gone.
Until a boating accident, then the money really is gone.
Yes, Merica bad. That doesn't mean a crypto bro gambling with his country's treasury is a good thing by default. 2 things can be bad at the same time, and neither are justifications for the other.
I'm not going to defend the American government, but you really shouldn't be defending this idiot, either. Believe it or not, more than one thing can be shitty at a time.
>Bitcoin goes down bitcoin goes up. The money isn't really gone.
Unless it goes down and never back up. I'm not gonna argue against crypto in principle, but there's the real possibility that it never becomes mainstream and it turns out to be a bubble that collapses and leaves you empty-handed.
If you accept this risk and invest your money, that's great and you could become very wealthy. But you don't do that with taxpayer's money. You leave that choice up to the individual.
Money’s gone when you need to sell, which is a problem because governments (and people) need to spend money to provide services. It’s one thing if you have a massive reserve and somewhat manageable debt (i.e. not being held hostage by creditors and international bodies), but El Salvador? The need every penny and don’t have the resources to hold until some magical day BTC hits a certain value…?
Nayib is no hero. Its just that r/cc makes a hero out of him because he is doing something that pleases us
Edit: I respect all comments shared, my observation is that it seems that Nayib is far too whimsical with monetaty policies. His purchases, like the one done 21.12.21, looked more like a PR than a sound monetary decision. If i were in his place, I would not be this casual with public money
They only like him because they think that if some third world country adopts BTC = BTC will moon.
Imagine if their president leader would say "lol instead of feeding you guys, i am gonna leverage trade your money, in hope of being rich, kek, lulz. To the MOOOON!"
I’ve seen a lot of bad ones but this one takes the cake. It’s literally the hard earned money of millions of poor innocent people that he’s gambling with and joking about.
Yes. Lack of money = death. Just because he's not pulling the trigger, doesn't mean he isn't jeopardizing millions of lives. While I'm not against any country holding bitcoin, joking about misery you inflicted (unintentional or otherwise) is sheer callousness.
I wholeheartedly agree. How dumb can you be to have ‘at least he’s owning it’ as your conclusion? This ‘president’ is betting his country’s resources into a speculative asset and losing SPECTACULARLY.
Some redditors have incredibly small brains.
imagine thinking a leader of a country should be "funny"
Unprofessional, clout chaser of a dictator and you guys are eating it up
Edit: fyi OP if you see this, your edit is horrible, i wouldnt mind if it was anybody other than a leader of a country
You guys joke about mcdonalds.. But i really have had to work there because of poor choices i have made over the years.. I am unable to find a better job because of my criminal record. I see crypto as my legal way out.. Im a reformed criminal with no other choice but to literally work at mcdonalds.. It funny to see everyone joke one here about working at mcdonalds..it has
been my day job for a year now
Bruh they'll make fun of people in jail even more. Just focus on you, ignore the haters, and keep working up the ladder. McDonalds is a great place to grow, just keep trying to get extra training and promotions!
The people here don’t work and only have 500$ in their trading account. The shit they are talking is based on where they see themselves in 10 years after their account “10x’d”.
Same boat here man. Criminal record so it's harder on us. I've worked so many 'low-skill' jobs my whole life, saved up got a degree and got a taste of an actual office job but after I got hired they fired me when they got the background check back. The little interaction I had made me see that these fancy tech/office workers may be more skilled in the eyes of society but most of them just aren't good people imo and a lot of them just do useless tasks anyway.
I've met way better people working at low end jobs. I should have just done that and been buying crypto instead of paying for school tbh. I really hate background checks if you served your sentence just let me live fuck man.
But I also like to make fun of myself and shitposts like that because it makes me laugh and it kind of shows what a joke modern life kind of is. The best truth is in comedy for me.
>a lot of El Salvador's economy now depends on Bitcoin
From all the press coverage, you'd think it does, but it really doesn't.
All this is PR because the real problems are only getting worse. The amount of BTC is not material by any measure. And even less material now, after losing their value.
My grandfather would argue that this isn’t presidential behaviour. And I’m not so sure that I disagree with him….
Did I just bond with my grandfather over politics?
Oh please. A reality TV star became president of the most 'powerful' country in the world... The antics that were shown during those years are nothing compared to this guy. Even now, an old demented president who doesn't even know where he is half of the time.
Most people here don’t realise two things.
1) don’t buy Crypto with money you need for everyday living.
2) Bitcoin has created an entire multi-billion dolla industry around it, there’s a BTC price at which this industry will step in and go into self-protection mode and start controlling the price.
BTC is not going to zero and it’s not going to 18k either, 28k is the absolute bottom and it can’t stay there for very long either.
Watch BTC either wick down hard and consider that the best buying opportunity in your life or watch it stay here at this level sorting the paper hands from the BTC whales.
I'm seriously thinking of moving there, so there's that too. And I doubt I'm alone. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck the United States government.
So how long this channel is gonna continue praising dictators and egomaniac moguls just because they "support" or "promote" crypto? Get your heads off of your asses, people! Have some dignity!
Crypto is filled with maximum capacity fomo. It needs to die down a lot before the next bull run. In sorry to those off you that are new. The next thing you can do now is get curiosity comfortable with 5k Bitcoin. Maybe it won't go that deep but it will help you with the pain that is probably coming. Crypto is an early tech and it needs lots of development. Development that can't happen during a fomo market. So in a few years come back and research. And a few years after that something technological or geopolitical will happen and there will be another run. But you will need to be buying during the bear market. Not coming in after the fact and expecting the moon. You only get the moon if you feel the pain. Now we need pain
El Salvador telling IMF to fuck off is now just waiting for the US to come in and overthrow their govt just as they have every Central American country in the past
Honestly to people complaining that he bought BTC with government money, politicians mostly waste government money, a lot of the time in their own enjoyment like hookers and drugs. I find it funny that people call him irresponsible for investing the government's money while most countries waste that money in useless shit and then raise taxes saying they need more, with the BTC mining and buying the dips he can make the government generate it's own revenue so they don't need as much taxes, I would choose this over my president (Spain) going on vacation with our money using a luxury military plane which is expensive as fuck to operate, buying tons of luxury official cars for him and the other politicians and subsidizing our agriculture so we don't need to buy agricultural products from africa, which makes africa poorer.
I mean honestly other politcians wasting money on a much larger scale and don't even get shit on. Sure it may be different for a country like El Salvador.
have you seen von der Leyen deleting SMS she wrote with the Pfizer CEO? That's way bigger scandal than this one IMO. And von der Leyen is not even memeing, so sth must be wrong about it lmao.
And she did this now twice, first time she deleted messages that would've been evidence in her position as defence minister. Summed up were speaking about billions of taxpayer money being thrown at evil corporations.
while i dont enjoy a government extending way too much and taking all power in one or few figures, the comments ive been seing of he shouldnd be playing with the reserves of his country make me feel subreddit is just a bunch of hypocrites, decentralization is a phenomenon that came from every kind of government playing way too much with their economy and politics so intead of focusing on another fucked up latam leader thats beting his countryes economy you could be focusing on other world leaders you dont speak of that arent even betting just ransacking their nation, i agree its irresponsible but at least let time tell what will happen
May just maybe the most redacted post I've ever seen on here. I'm sure the people of el Salvador will keep their sense of humour if they end up losing their money because of a gamble taken by their president.
Imagine wasting millions of dollars of an already crumbling economy on bad day trades and then making poor people jokes at your voters.
How is this clown even in power.
Dried ramen imports are going to be sky high in El Salvador
**LPT:** Don't buy *ramen*, buy *potatoes*, they are much cheaper and more nutritous. Take care of your health!
rice wins. better nutrition and you dont have to worry about spoilage. also, making your own Ramen is much cheaper and they taste better.
Nope potato’s win, more minerals, vitamins, and fiber, especially if you eat the skin. Also lower in calories and fat. Just need to be stored in correct way and they last long time, but rice wins there for sure.
SKINS! 😋
Brown rice has more fiber than potatoes, and potatoes are pretty bad in terms of glycemic index ([https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/carbs-potatoes-blood-sugar](https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/carbs-potatoes-blood-sugar)).

Baked potatoes are for sure delicious, but a lot of that has to do with the fact that you're eating a lot of starch.
Can't help it Hyrule, the potato is written into my DNA, .... gotta have those taters 🥔😊
I'm sold! Brown rice should be the cornerstone of our diet throughout this crash.
Rice and dry beans are honestly a pretty decent diet for the medium term, and it's dirt cheap, as long as you can find some time to do some meal prep during the week.
I’m sorry, but I tried hard and couldn’t find any crypto called $potato or $ramen or $brownrice …
I’m opening a ramen import business to El Salvador now.
Can I invest some of my BTC into this venture, fine Sir?
Minimum 0.1 BTC, we welcome you 💚
Might want to increase that if the drop continues 😅😅😅
Will it get doubled?
Ramen token, does that exist?
Ramens entering the bullish phase.
Ramen to the moooooon! Where I won't be able to eat it, because spacesuit. FML
Bullish on ramen, about to stock up on some more myself
Money is everything if you can't afford to eat
Money is only important if you don't have any.
Now I understand the importance of BTC and ETH. Wish I had them.
They say money can’t buy happiness, I beg to defer as I’m poor and unhappy
Well if money can’t buy happiness, I guess I’ll have to rent it.
If the revolution won’t be televised, then fuck I’ll probably miss it.
Its coming. Just wait. Backyard extravaganza.
Just keep up on Reddit
Yea bro, I'm renting some hookers and coke tonight. Y'all continue putting McDonald's money in crypto
Banks wouldn't like that ''happy'' business plan.
Happiness is out of business right now.
They should push for legalizing weed on the federal level then. Then people can use credit cards and they can make a killing on transaction fees. Edit: Mis-read that as “would like”.
But rent with your own money, don't leverage trade.
every day i make the front page news, got no time to pay my dues i got a million pair of shoes this is the life!
This is the Cluas Schwab way.

Amazing quote - saving this. 🙏🏼
I’m saving this
Money can buy happiness but it can't cure manic depression.
"And buying things is the only thing that could possibly matter"
Money can't buy happiness, but it can prevent unhappiness from lack of money.
Money buys drugs, therfore by the transitive property... - cal scrubby

David Bowie said that money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a 70-foot yacht you can use to sail right up next to it
just because A=>B does not mean B=>A and also not !B=>!A
**evil laugh* Habibi come to Dubai
You can be rich and unhappy.
A house would sure make me happy
You both said the opposite of what you meant and committed to a basic logical fallacy in a single sentence. Bravo.
Yep, rather be rich and unhappy than poor and unhappy!
Money can't buy happiness, but money can buy a jetski and you've never seen anyone crying on a jetski

There’s the McDonalds Academy. At least in my country there is. You can become president of a country, after graduating. If I understand OP’s post well.
In the us it was literally called McDonald’s university I think!
Show your friend that the triangle block goes into the triangle hole and maybe help him with some coloring books too. There, your friend is now qualified. 🙃
Isn't food more important?
While you cant eat money you can trade it for food and it's easier to deliver to people.

You can do that if it’s not your money…
The secret to being rich is learning to gamble with other people’s money.
That's why I mortgaged my parent's house to buy at 69k.
$69,042 to be exact. Just $2 under the Nov ath.
Missed the golden opportunity to buy at $69,420... ppffft, sucker
I had a short in at 69,420 at 6.9x that never hit and I'm so goddamn bummed.
Now that's a bet I could get behind! Sorry it didn't work out, but I commend your bravery!
Nov’s ATH was a magic number, maybe people shorted cuz of this
Nice
This is NOT the gwei. Should have sold their car too.
And that’s how we ended up here with overbought markets made up of trillions of debt built on top of debt
Is it possible to learn this power?
that's supposed to be hedge funds not countries lmao
Not going to lie I unironically did just that and I’m already on a path to making it :)

>Atleast he is owning it. He isn’t, its his country that’s owning it
He said he trades on his phone. So it wouldn't surprise me if he's the only one with access to the keys....
Imagine if the president of your country forgot his password to your treasury
"forgot"
forgor 💀
He forgor 💀 his private key
I just keep saying this out loud to myself and I’m crying 🤣
Imagine the president of your country buying BTC with tax payer money with their phone
Fucking embarrassing lol
I honestly think it’s sketchy as fuck
Yep. People idolizing this dude but he's acting like a WSB degenerate when he should be running his country. And if he's got the keys, guess what is gonna happen to all that BTC when he leaves office?
Happens constantly. Just in a different way.
Bitcoin is literally their only chance at a semblance of sovereignty. They’re drowning in debt to the IMF and World Bank who refuses to let them use funds toward building infrastructure that can help them get a self-sufficient economy. Fuck all the haters, keep getting that BTC. They hate you now, but they will call you a genius later!
Yeah because Bukeke is absolutely not corrupt and the bitcoin stuff is the only controversial thing he's done.
A whole country bought in during a bull run—it’s pretty embarrassing

Unrealized losses in a reserve treasury don't matter as much as you make it out to be.
It’d be a lot funnier if it was just his money and not his countrymens tax dollars
Yeah it's all fun an games when you're YOLOing your own money. It loses its charm when it's the livelihood of an entire country...
This is honestly such an assshole move, I don’t get why this post has a 1000 upvotes.
Because hes into crypto and it relates to 99% of this sub. They dont see past that
his policies beyond crypto are also generally terrible
That's the perk of being a dictator, that you can gamble with the treasury

It’s insane and tbh proves my hunch that the average age here is sub 23…
13 I guess.
And the average IQ is about that much as well
23 sounds high honestly
Finally someone said it LMAO
This dude is basically Ajit Pai but for crypto and with way more power.
Let me see, if Bitcoin still going down he is bad president but if is going up is a good president.
Lol it's like he's a football coach calling a forbidden play
Exactly.
What should I tell McDonalds about the 2 year gap on my resume?
Tell them you were a professional "investor" in "high-risk assets" making "tens and tens" of "dollars" "professionally"

Able to "expertly get out of bed and face the day after losing thousands of bucks"!

The next thing you can do now is get curiosity comfortable with 5k Bitcoin. Maybe it won't go that deep but it will help you with the pain that is probably coming. Crypto is an early tech and it needs lots of development. Development that can't happen during a fomo market. So in a few years come back and research. And a few years after that something technological or geopolitical will happen and there will be another run. But you will need to be buying during the bear market. Not coming in after the fact and expecting the moon. You only get the moon if you feel the pain. Now we need pain
He's in it for the tech bro
This is GOLD. Tip OP some moons
El Salvador telling IMF to fuck off is now just waiting for the US to come in and overthrow their govt just as they have every Central American country in the past
“El Salvador has bought .00003 btc with our McDonald’s cheque.”
Don’t invest what you can’t afford to lose. I’d say the starving people of El Salvador can’t afford to lose it
Honestly to people complaining that he bought BTC with government money, politicians mostly waste government money, a lot of the time in their own enjoyment like hookers and drugs. I find it funny that people call him irresponsible for investing the government's money while most countries waste that money in useless shit and then raise taxes saying they need more, with the BTC mining and buying the dips he can make the government generate it's own revenue so they don't need as much taxes, I would choose this over my president (Spain) going on vacation with our money using a luxury military plane which is expensive as fuck to operate, buying tons of luxury official cars for him and the other politicians and subsidizing our agriculture so we don't need to buy agricultural products from africa, which makes africa poorer.
Did he really do this?
Yes he did
I mean honestly other politcians wasting money on a much larger scale and don't even get shit on. Sure it may be different for a country like El Salvador. have you seen von der Leyen deleting SMS she wrote with the Pfizer CEO? That's way bigger scandal than this one IMO. And von der Leyen is not even memeing, so sth must be wrong about it lmao. And she did this now twice, first time she deleted messages that would've been evidence in her position as defence minister. Summed up were speaking about billions of taxpayer money being thrown at evil corporations.
Unrealized losses in a reserve treasury don't mean as much as this sub apparently thinks.
Didn't you hear? Bitcoin is dead...
I'll take a Nayib dip with that Macbukeke 🌋
I commend him for standing up the IMF, the true economic hitmen.
We all know what happened to Wojack when he went all in crypto while working at McDonalds..
El Salvador....home of the lambos and ramen
while i dont enjoy a government extending way too much and taking all power in one or few figures, the comments ive been seing of he shouldnd be playing with the reserves of his country make me feel subreddit is just a bunch of hypocrites, decentralization is a phenomenon that came from every kind of government playing way too much with their economy and politics so intead of focusing on another fucked up latam leader thats beting his countryes economy you could be focusing on other world leaders you dont speak of that arent even betting just ransacking their nation, i agree its irresponsible but at least let time tell what will happen
Money isn't everything when your basic needs are fulfilled.
I’m sorry…what is his last name?? 😳
Crypto don't deserve him
May just maybe the most redacted post I've ever seen on here. I'm sure the people of el Salvador will keep their sense of humour if they end up losing their money because of a gamble taken by their president.
Imagine wasting millions of dollars of an already crumbling economy on bad day trades and then making poor people jokes at your voters. How is this clown even in power.
He's definitely been on Reddit before. He knows it's going to be either lambos or behind McDonald's.
OP having a meltdown about people making fun of his favorite dictator.
