RE: Living in Freedom by Living Off of STEEM and Crypto - Will a Cashless Society Change All That?

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

I look forward to the time I don't need steady income from a day job. Even so, my day job is more than a steady income. Money is actually the lesser of the payoffs I get. Mental and physical activity, interaction with people I share interests with, contribution to my community, greater compassion for others when I see how challenged we can be to struggle to survive and get ahead. I have to say I really appreciate my day job. And STILL I am quite excited to envision the day I no longer "need" the steady income.

Sort:  

If you have a great job, then for sure, stick with it. Steem isn't a valid replacement in many cases, and doesn't provide the steady or amount of income required for living :)

My first comment didn't actually address your post. My apologies.
** I am free to do things during the day at any time, rather than work the usual 9-to-5 grind that most people are forced into complying with.**
I readily admit this is a "freedom" I don't have but long to achieve. Crypto is an emerging market, and as one of the earlier investors it may pay off well for me. I am "mining" small amounts of Steem here and I invest what I can from my day job earnings. Mass adoption of crypto may allow me to keep a larger percentage of my earnings, but I don't think the whole financial system will be "turned on it's head". (Something I would like to see)
