RE: Thoughts before my 1 Year Anniversary

in #community6 years ago

It is just life lessons catching up in an old soul. The world of Crypto is full of users who have had their first taste of money in their life. They don't know how to be human any longer as they are chasing a dream that they have never even dreamt of before. And now that prices are down they feel they have lost their worth even though it was only the market which made them wealthy in the first place. They got a lucky buy here and there. They are new money, like lotto winners and most will end up broke very quickly.

I've had a lot of time with un-spendable money in my life as well as a lot of time with no money. People fail to remember there has to be time to spend the money and enjoy life or it is all pointless. So many are caught up chasing the dragon they won't ever be able to enjoy it once they get it. Enough will never be enough, there will always be a reason for them to continue to be greedy and keep chasing something they have already caught.

Anyone who believes in the power of Steem and it's potential future is not smart not helping build the base community as much as possible. You need buyers as well as sellers and with the current dump of all the crypto's tells anyone from money, real money, those in the game do not have money knowledge or true belief in this system or Steem would not be this low. Those who chase money made a bundle of the SBD bubble and those who have it banked it all away as it was not high enough to sell yet.

It’s amazing how many people on Steem - and in crypto in general - would do well to remember these wise words:

Beware of overconcern for money, or position, or glory. Someday you will meet a man who cares for none of these things. Then you will know how poor you are.
—Rudyard Kipling

The questions is, of course, whether they’ve actually ever known those words in the first place.
