Six Year Old Make x10 Profits in Splinterlands

When I first started playing Splinterlands, I did so "for fun" not realizing what an amazing financial investment it was.

I would let my son play with my cards for hours, which would keep me in the bronze leagues, and not very profitable.

A short time after DEC started circulating, I realized that I was sitting on a gold mine. My cards were worth hundreds of dollars, and I was making lots of DEC with them.

I didn't want to take steemmonsters (now splinterlands) dtjaway from my son, so I bought him his own starter pack, got him his own account, gave him a 50 STEEM delegation, and set him on his merry way.

It has been about a year and a half

The kid plays often but not consistently. And he has the strategy of a six year old boy.

He likes the archers and cares very little about their placement.

He sometimes presses the wrong buttons and places cards for sale.

He refuses to let me rent out his unused cards.

He calls Mana, Drama, and thinks its funny to use less than he is allotted

And he still has $114.71 USD worth of cards.

He also has a small collection of DEC

And this is why I feel like anyone who has access to an electronic device (he uses my laptop, and only when I am not using it) can little by little grow a HODLings in crypto.

Splinterlands likely won't be his trust fund when he is 18

But he sure will have a little savings account which he can trade, and starting your financial life with a little bit of a head start is always a good thing.

What 10 dollar investment can you make, that given time will grow?

And how much do you think those cards will be worth in 12 years, when he is 18 and in need of a car?
