content: Two methods. One I will not share due to basic OpSec. The second is that I am part of a legacy program still grandfathered into existence in a Canadian bank (thus closely tied to the USD) whereby a crypto wallet with 8 different coins is automatically converted to USD and used every time I make a purchase with what looks like and acts like a VISA debit card.  I cashed out 401k's a few years back and went 100% in on BTC when it was three digits and then diversified my portfolio to hundreds of alt coins over time, so whenever my "bank balance" needs topped off I just transfer from one to the aforementioned Canadian bank and use it like any other credit card. Truth be told, there isn't a significant amount of things I need to pay for on a monthly basis outside a cell plan, food, and other small items. I'm waiting for the inevitable crash of the USD. My spidey sense is tingling that it's coming, like the distant roar of an avalanche you can't quite see in a whiteout blizzard. Without the Pb, your chances of surviving what is coming are extremely diminished. Even something as simple as a good, reliable pistol is adequate.. though I and others like me have our own arsenal to defend ourselves.
