Numbers and spreadsheets kind of make me cry XD
I have an app for budgeting and there's a set amount each month that goes into hive and savings and that's pretty much it for me as anything further also makes me cry x_x
kind of pity I would like to collect metal because it's pretty but lacking a safe place to keep it

It's good that you've got a strategy, so many do not and that's generally not going to end well. Also, the clicking of silver coins...It's hypnotic. 😊
I went way too long without a strategy because life is too short to care about useless things like that and the only thing my plans have ever done up to that point is fail spectacularly and I had better things to do, because 20yo me was actually that stupid.
That clicking of coins is precisely why I want the metal. But I would just be buying the pretty little figures and coins and maybe nuggets because they're pretty rather than anything that might be more useful or valuable x_x
I know people who don't have any financial plans or think about the future and that's their prerogative. It's when time moves forward and they have little to nothing to sustain themselves that their choices will come full circle. If they think there'll be a government pension in the future they're wrong, the same if they think the government pension is enough anyway. Some like instant gratification and care nothing for the future. I think it's not a smart way to go.
It's good to hear you have something in place, and if you added a few silver coins here and there I think you could become a pirate in no time! Do you have a parrot?
No but I do have a little gold rooster that my parents bought for me (that's one thing that I wouldn't sell, don't know about the kids when they grow up XD), close enough? :D
Hurrah for golden roosters...Everybody should have one, but alas, not all do. I'm golden roosterless to be honest with you. I need one now...(G-dog heads over to Amazon)
Indeed.
Will there be a post if you get one? :D
You know it! 😂
