Episode 7: Proof of Work

In this episode, Chris and Adam sit down with Dr. Sahil Zaveri, a cardiology fellow in New York City who discovered Bitcoin early in his medical training — and used it as a tool to accelerate his journey toward financial sovereignty.Sahil shares how he moved from altcoin trading to long-term conviction in Bitcoin, how he introduced his family to sound money principles, and why he believes Bitcoin treasury companies like MetaPlanet and MicroStrategy offer asymmetric opportunities for young professionals. The conversation covers his decision to pursue fellowship despite already reaching financial independence, and why meaning and purpose matter just as much as net worth.From price checks in the OR to early-stage investing with parental capital, this is a fast-paced, honest conversation about time preference, fulfillment, and the role of proof of work — both in Bitcoin and in life.Timestamps: 0:00:00 - Guest Introduction and Background0:01:40 - Sahil's Medical Journey0:03:37 - Discovery of Bitcoin0:05:01 - Bitcoin and Medical Training0:06:40 - Investment Strategy0:08:20 - Career Decisions and Financial Freedom0:13:09 - Orange-Pilling Others0:16:17 - The Truth About Money in Medicine0:22:26 - Aggressive Investment Philosophy0:34:40 - Bitcoin as Insurance0:38:32 - The "Sailor Retweet" Moment0:44:17 - Easing People into Bitcoin0:50:52 - Sailor's Conviction0:58:19 - Bull Run and Global Adoption1:06:03 - Recommended Resources1:10:30 - Parting Words
