Hello everyone
Those of you who interact with me, know by now that I live in Greece. Well, in case you don't know, here in Greece, just because completely worthless politicians were / are running the country for the last 40 years or so, we have really big financial problems.
As a result, an average salary here in Greece is between 7K - 8K Euro annually. Can you even imagine...? Of course 8K per year would be enough "if" every day life was cheap...But unfortunately that's not the case...
For example, the average price for a cup of coffee is 3.5 / 4 Euros.( how much does it cost in your country by the way?) In fact everything is expensive...electricity, internet, water bill, food....literally everything.
But these things are more or less known and this is not the reason I made this post actually. The real reason is because today, is a happy day for me! And that's because I got a raise!!!
Yeah you heard right! Even though our economy is collapsing (although the last year there are signs of a possible recovery) my boss called me in his office and announced me that he will give me a 40% raise!!!!
To be honest with you I just couldn't believe it. Hard work eventually pays off people. I wish I could describe you how I feel right now...but sometimes you just can't find the right words to describe emotions.
Deep inside me, I knew this day will come at some point, I just didn't think that it would come so fast. You see I work in that place just over 7 months now and I every single day I try really hard. Seems like my efforts were noticed!
Who knows...maybe it is an opportunity to buy some more steem when the new paycheck arrives :P
And that is one more reason why cryptocurrencies "have to" succeed. If there is one thing that would change my financial status once and for all, that is cryptos.
So come on steem!!!
Drinks on me tonight!!
Until next time...
Stay awesome!
Cheers @mindtrap

I understand you perfectly. I live in Venezuela and it is the worst government that has existed in Latin America. even if they increased the salary to 100% or 200% it was still not enough. There came a time where the salary was 6000bs and a can of tuna cost 7500bs. They changed the currency but nothing works here. I have faith that everything will improve, but for that, we Venezuelans must set the example and persevere, that's why I endorse you and send you good vibes and faith. a hug! (For days I wanted to write this, but I have not had many credits.)
I really hope that you can get out of this mess as soon as possible. It would be a great idea if you could create your own crypto currency. For Venezuela.
Thanks for stopping by and don’t hesitate to contact me if there is anything you want to ask.
Have a great day!
Thank you very much, I will, there are many things that I still do not understand very well. Thank you!
Great, congratulations, mindtrap. 40% that's a lot. I am glad that you are happy. But if you work so hard and your stupid job "demands" almost 10 hours? But with more money, life becomes much nicer, more relaxed, healthier and easier. But almost 10 hours? The stone is too heavy. Since your boss may help properly. 7000-8000 euro average per year, that's very little. 3,50 4,00 Euro You mean for a pack (500 g) coffee, right? I usually buy 1 kg of espresso from the cheapest unmilled coffee for 6.99 euros. If there is a 20% discount on enerbio and I have 10% brands, I buy the kg pack of organic coffee for 7.19 euros. Cheers mindtrap, I raise a glas of red wine on you. Cheers mindtrap : D
Hehe cheers @suntree!!!
