A New Life With More Financial Freedom

A Life Changing Opportunity

I have been here for almost 5 years and even though I haven't been able to obtain a truly life-changing amount of tokens, Hive has given me such an amazing opportunity I wouldn't want to miss.

It's true that we are different, we are coming from different places and we have different goals, but all of us wants Hive to be successful. I think that Hive is a bargain at these prices and I truly believe that people have an amazing chance to change their lives in one of the most easiest ways we've ever seen..

Hive gives you the opportunity to change your lives through social media.

People might argue about how to get there and some- or many of us might fail to agree on the course that is needed- or the things that are necessary to be done.. But all of us wants to take Hive to new heights. That's one of the things everyone has in common.

When Hive gave us communities, we got an even better chance to get something out of this amazing project. We went from being rewarded in Hive and HBD to get LEO, POB, Neoxian, PAL and many other tokens simultaneously. Not all of the tribes are successful though, but we defintely know some of them that are bringing some massive hype, has pushed the boundaries even further and we know the tribes that are paving the way for others..

LeoFinance.io is my personal favorite. I love the concept, the hard working team behind it and the community. That is what makes LeoFinance such an awesome place. 1 LEO is currently worth 1.09 Hive on Hive-engine. Besides LeoFinance, we have ProofOfBrain.io or POB. Another great community that has lately been growing in numbers. In value as well. POB has actually been able to reach a higher value than LEO and 1 POB is worth 1.60 Hive on Hive-engine at the time I am writing this..

How cool is that?!

A New Chapter

Some of you know that I started to power down and cash out a couple of weeks ago, and it obviously hurts in various ways but long before I decided to do it, I went back and forth, weighing my options.

I could easily have started to power down during the ATH's we saw, to maximize my returns, but I wasn't ready- or willing to give up on my beloved tokens. I realized after a couple of weeks that powering down would be my best option, and that it would help me the most in the long haul..

Both in real life but also on Hive.

You see, debts and being stressed out about money isn't a good thing for anyone, and even though I could've managed without cashing out, it would've taken me a long time before I would be in the position I have been able to put myself in right now. A position where FIAT debts have drastically reduced which gives me more freedom and less stress. It eventually gives me more time I can spend on Hive, and that is exactly what I am aiming for. I want to be part of this long and amazing journey.

Cashing out makes things easier in real life, but it affects my Hive-life tremendously as literally everything is connected to stake. The more I have the more I get. I also face the risk of not being supported by people because they could feel somewhat betrayed or whatever due to my power down. I thought about literally every situation and/or consequence but cashing out was still my best option.

I have been in this situation before, I have started from scratch and I have put in time and effort to slowly grow my stake, increase my reputation and to contribute towards a better place. I have never backed down or given up and I won't do that this time either..

In fact, I started to slow down and spend less time on Hive during my power down, just because I didn't want to come off like a taker. Call me crazy, but I am not greedy or selfish and it somewhat felt wrong to be active and earning rewards while I was powering down.

That being said, I have been powering down for a couple of weeks and I need approximately 8K Hive to solve the FIAT bullshit I am trying to fix. That's ~3k more than my entire Hive stake, which I am not willing to lose but I will continue to power down some of it. I am thinking about roughly 1000 Hive, at the current value.

That will eventually put me at ~4K Hive in total, which isn't that bad to start with. After that, I have various goals and milestones as I have mentioned previously, but some of them are to get back to 5K Hive and 5K LEO.. A long and somewhat tedious task of course, but once the "FIAT stress" is gone, I am able to put in more. More time and money to invest back into Hive.

I am also thinking of investing some of my future rewards in other things. 10% of my Hive income or something like that is likely to go to other community tokens. I would obviously want to invest in BTC as well, but I'm just not there yet.. Neither personally or financially.

Oh well, long story short, Hive has given me an amazing opportunity and I truly believe- and feel that I have done the best I can with that opportunity I got. Even though we aren't talking about millions of dollars, I was still able to change my life due to my contributions on Hive..

I am truly grateful for that.
