I spoke to a friend who is a programmer several years ago and he didnt seem too interested in crypto. The other weekend I saw him again and all of a sudden he was more into it. Perhaps because my own understanding is a lot better I was able to explain it in a more engaging way, or perhaps sometimes people just need to be in the right frame of mind to accept new things/information. I expect If I was half dressed my friend would not have been so interested in cryptos erither, but for an entirely different reason than in your example.

Also just a point of order, I think you would have to be a "sugar daughter" to the little fat man, which sounds horrible, as it should :)
