Drawing An Ethical Line In The Sand | This Line WON'T Be Crossed
About this episode
What are you most deeply held ethical boundaries?
In Episode #332 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: why we had a recent enforced break, the Generational Wealth With Cryptocurrency podcast, why we both are wary of money coming from sponsorship or advertising, topics of conversation that wouldn't be talked about, why I won't be fighting in any ways, Juan's requirements to be fit and achieve his goals, why I try to never tell a lie and the reasons we hold all these views.
A huge thanks to Petar the Philosopher, Dave Jones and our mystery streamer. What studs!
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
