I’m a fairly disorganized human being. It’s definitely something I’ve tried to remedy through the years with very little success. I’m not messy or a slob...just disorganized and a bit chaotic. A perfect example is I throw my loose change in several places. In my car compartments, my dresser, a change jug, and anywhere else I can think of. I even found a pile of change near my computer downstairs. I dunno...

Either way, a few times a year I will wrap all that delicious spare change that was doing me no good and cash it in. Then I’d treat the family to a nice dinner, but that piece of comic art I’ve been eying up, pay off some credit cards, go buy the pups some new toys, or as I have been doing for the past year and a half...purchase some Steem to power up my account. This is practically found moolah, so it’s not like I’ll be missing it. It’s the perfect opportunity to grow my account little by little without feeling that punch of seeing my account balance dwindle. I do that as well because I’m stupid but that’s a whole other write up.

So this morning after feeding my pups, cleaning out my car, and throwing in some laundry...I searched high and lo in all my stash spots to round up that metallic goodness. Here is what I came up with.

Doesn’t look like much but after wrapping this shit fir like an hour, it came out to $119.50! There is $106.50 wrapped and I had 13 Dollar coins as well that I’m going to cash in. Not too shabby for piles of coins I wasn’t tracking or utilizing.

There were actually a bunch of left over pennies but I ran out of penny sleeves. There were also some other random coins that wouldn’t fit into a wrapper so that pile will wait for the next go around.

Going through the quarters, I also found one from 1958. I believe any quarters before 1964 had 90% silver. So I’m going to try to keep an eye out for these going forward so I can stockpile them. Maybe in a few years I’ll have a handful of em! I believe I read that the silver in these is currently worth a few bucks each. Any of my Steem Silver friends want to confirm or correct my stupid assumption?

Anyway, I have to go to the bank, deposit it, purchase Bitcoin, and then the Steem. Depending on when I purchase it, this should get me around 750 Steem give or take a bit on either side. Once again...all with coins that were just sitting and wasting away. So think about that my friends. Most of us have little piles or stashed in our car or a jug. Cash that shit in and Power up your account a bit. If you do believe in this place, there’s no better time than now! We need investors too here. I know in a perfect world we all want to just earn our Steem but I personally feel I take this place a bit more seriously as I have funds invested and I want them to go to work for me. What better way than through the Steem blockchain.

Something to think on...
