RE: Mistakes

in #ecency4 years ago

Howdy sir Vincent! Hey, do you still have a pile of Steem in Steemit? I just powered down and then when those amounts landed up in the top column, the Steem column, I would go to Steemengine and buy Bitcoin with the Steem that I had. Then I'd send that Bitcoin to an exchange I was using.

I'd still be posting here if I didn't need an income from it but for me at this point in my life it takes too much time and doesn't earn enough. But I know it would be hard for you to abandon your legions of fans on here so I understand why you don't want to leave.

Sort:  

Howdy Jonboy, Yes, I am still posting on Steem. It is the same post I do on here.

So you bought bitcoin with your Steem, and did you say the exchange you sent your bitcoin to closed down? That must have hurt.

Are you gainfully employed now? Making lots of money?

Have a great weekend.

Howdy today sir Vincent! what a glorious day it is here with bright sunshine and mild temperatures. Anyway, yes losing that bitcoin was hard. My mistake was not putting it in several different places in case the company went belly up.

I am not gainfully employed at the moment, I developed a hernia so I am waiting for that to heal before I look for a job. But my wife is making good money so that is good. lol.

Did you ever think about getting a part time job or would that interfere with your retirement income?

Howdy Jonboy.

Ouch, that must be painful. I hope you are recovering nicely from the hernia.

And, sorry to hear that you lost your bitcoins. Years of work down the drain. I can imagine how it must have hurt.

Job wise, sometimes I think it would be nice to have something to do - something on a part time basis. But I have been having that thought for so many years now. I think it is time to put that behind me and forget about it. If it happens, it happens. I am not going to worry or think about it.

I am not young anymore. I just want to live a simple life - as simple as possible. 😊

Sir Vincent! Well, as long as life isn't boring for you...then you should be able to live it as you wish. But if you want it to be as simple as possible then you need to give up your fancy phone and also your Hive activities, lol. Technology is pretty darn complex.

So if someone were to offer you a great, part time job you would accept it? That would throw your daily schedule and routine way off though! Did you say you had a dog? Or the dog has you?

If I think that I would enjoy doing the job, yes, I would accept the offer immediately. Daily schedule and routine be damned. haha... For that reason, I don't have a dog.
