SUGGESTION #1 👉 When possible, allow their OWN generation do the talking & convincing.

SUGGESTION #2 👉 Don't smother them with endless, bewildering jargon.
Boomers watch younger generations get enamored w/ (& spout off about) all sorts of stupid sh*t. They assume #BTC is the same. Do NOT force it on them. Humbly LISTEN to & validate concerns. Learn from them too!

SUGGESTION #3 👉 Avoid hyperbole.
Older generations have significant life experience & wisdom. They've "heard it all," and they're often wisely skeptical. They've been duped a time or 2.
Avoid words like "forever," "guaranteed," "infinity," "inevitable," "HFSP" & so on.

SUGGESTION #4 👉 Encourage them to LEARN by leveraging your genuine concern for them.
"Dad, I could be off, but I care about u. Could u at least do me a favor & spend a few hrs checking out #bitcoin?"
Most who do a little homework end up more interested; then set the hook.😉🎣

SUGGESTION #5 👉 Show them.
If they're tech intimidated, demonstrate HOW this works. Move some #bitcoin in front of them w/ something easy yet secure (i.e. @nunchuk_io w/ a @TAPSIGNER).
Or open the @mempool on ur node & explain that this is all happening w/ NOBODY in control.🤯
