In the past few years, I've been very vocal with my wife about when Hive has its pumps. I have been invested in this blockchain and community since 2016, it's my ride or die. I love everything about it.
But my wife got tired of me always talking about a few hundred here or a few thousand there....so a while back, she said, "I don't wanna hear any more about it, let me know when you're at 20K"...that one took a few months.
I was so excited to tell her when it happened. Then she said, "ok, whatever, let me know when you're at 50K"...
Then a few months later, that happened.
She was honestly really surprised and of course then said "Ok, let me know when you're at 100K".
I thought it was going to take quite a while, but here we are today, I just called her with tears in my eyes, happy tears, it finally happened.
Crypto has changed my life. Specifically HIVE. I wouldn't be where I am at today or doing what I am doing (owning a bar/restaurant in Mexico) if it wasn't for crypto and Hive.
SO FUCKING THANKFUL!!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you all, I love you!
Hive on!
So happy for you man. Proves that taking the risk down in Mexico was worth it and then some. Can’t wait to see what’s next on the menu for us.
Yeah buddy!!! Thanks so much for the affirmation on the risk. So far so good! Just waiting for you and flower baby to come visit 😜
She doesn’t even have her passport. She’s lagging. I have mine though. I am dying to see what Mexico is like.
Oh man, she's gotta get on that, for the bare minimum of getting out the country ASAP if you needed/wanted to. You'd love Mexico man, it's free'er here than up there....
I know. I honestly just don’t think she’s ever actually considered anything like that. She’s from a very very small town and honestly hasn’t seen much yet, not that I’ve seen a ton more, but a little at least. Hoping to change that.
So happy for you brother! You are the reason I invested anything in crypto! You deserve this!
Thanks brother, miss y'all like crazy! Say hi to everyone for me today.
I’m very happy for you, brother, and now have tears in my eyes, too 🤗
I have just over $1,000 (according to the current surge) and am super grateful for the opportunities & community on #Hive!
Long may we thrive ✨
Congrats on your success as well, stay blessed.
So Happy for you sir and thank you Hive and thanks all the people's who are keep working
Thanks!
Awesome man, I hope to get there too! Happy Thanksgiving to you and the fam as well! It's cold up here, so enjoy the warmth where you are at!
I'm enjoying the warmth no doubt, was actually a nice cool morning, the humidity should drop any day now....but still, it ain't 40 degrees, lol. Happy Thanksgiving bud!
That is awesome! Congrats! I missed the big pump, so by the time I looked at my account it was down to right around $70k. Still not too shabby. I am not complaining at all. The only thing I might be complaining about is the fact that I didn't buy more when it was low and that I have zero liquid because I power everything up! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
I wish I would have bought more should be the crypto slogan, lol. Happy Thanksgiving bud!
No kidding! Thanks, you too!
I get it…I’m actually uneasy about the price going up this much. It’s way beyond my expectations considering we don’t have a ceo or company anymore. I thought it’d take a user base in the hundred thousands to get to this point
Enjoy it! Congrats!
I think not having a CEO or company is the best thing that could have happened...it's on us to make it work. Those who put in the effort and work, will reap massive rewards.
Thanks so much man!
Absolutely. It is a blessing but I thought it would take much longer to manifest. I'm at a loss of words. This is so awesome.
A blessing it is. But when you know something is going to be good, and you put your faith and money into it, and it finally pays off...you gotta pat yourself on the back for trusting your gut.
OMG! Good for you my friend. Yes, crypto has changed many lives, just as my son predicted years ago when he banged the drum for us to invest, thank goodness we all listened to him.
It's funny, when I first started on hive I gave no thought what so ever to the money/investment end. I think of it as play money. Now I am blown away that such a small investment has grown so much.
Now I am sure you lovely wife is on board.
Keep working it buddy, you are on your way. Sounds like your new place is coming along nicely.
Just please, don't buy the Lamborghini just yet.😁😂🤣
hahahaha, I don't see a Lambo in my future...ever. Very fortunate we found out about Hive and crypto when we did, right?
You are so right, my son was so far out in front of this phenomenon it just boggles my mind. So glad we listened to his advice.
Glad you are doing well, sending hugs to you and your clan.
Thankful for sure! I.woupd have been at 100 but had to cash out a chunk because I needed the money. However, wow.... even more thanks to HIVE because I could do this!!
Congrats to you girl! Everyone has to do what they have to do, props on ya for making it work in your favor. What's the point of investing if you never take some profits anyway. I don't plan on ever dropping to zero, but I got some things I could really use and this spike has made those things possible. I'm waiting for the day I can say "Hive bought me a house"!, lol.
WEll, in a round about way, HIVE paid off this mortgage - I cashed some out, swapped it for BTC, BTC went up, sold that and paid off the last bit. Not tons, but enough to say 'Hive helped me pay off my house!'. I haven't powered down below 20k as I like my vote to matter at least a little bit, and hope I dont have to cash out again as it feels disloyal! I beat myself up for ages for cashing out waht I did! But i had worked darn, darn hard for it here! Why not!
That is so awesome. Who would have thought some blogging website would be able to provide so much abundance for so many people....and I say blogging website with a grain of salt because we know it is so much more than that.
I feel disloyal too when I cash some out...but again, emotions need to be separated from financial decisions. I always remind myself of that when I start thinking of the loyalty aspect. Do what's best for you, because everyone else will do what is best for them.
That's so true. I actually spent a lot of time looking after so many people here and then when I looked after me someone criticised me for it. That stung, a lot. I nearly left HIVE. But Im glad I'm still here, connecting to the people that I like and doing my thing. I know right.. who would have thunk! And I never can quite explain it to people..
OH MY GOD YOU OWN A WHAT?????
Love it. Congrats, friend.
You read it right! C'mon down and visit me!!!! Pretty please!!!!???
Where did you end up settling?
We are living in Nuevo currently, but I much prefer Bucerias where my work is. Looking now to buy something in the next year in Bucerias.
I'm seriously considering making a trip down in Feb or March. I also have people I want to see in San Miguel, which probably means a long-ass bus ride. Or maybe I'll drive down and stay forever, lol.
*if Biden doesn't close the borders to the unclean
Drive down and stay forever sounds like a great idea!!! Lmk what you decide. I have a lot of family coming down the end of February, also my birthday month ;)
It's April now....don't make me post the skeleton on the bench meme....
Taking a chance on almost everything in life comes with no guarantees. But for people that can see a better life for themselves and then do something about making that happen, deserve all the credit in the world.
As they say, It is better to have tried and failed than never to have tried at all.
You've got a winning attitude which is the only way to go into things.
The way I looked at taking a gamble on things when I was younger was to give it a shot, giving it my all, and if it didn't work out, so be it.
And if it didn't work out, what would be my next adventure.
I hope everyone is healthy, happy, and enjoying the successes you all have accomplished.
Take care my friend and don't be afraid to keep rolling the dice,
I'm rolling the dice my friend, daily. Appreciate the words my man....now heal up and get your butts down here.
Things are moving along pretty well. The worst part about the rehab period is that I can't do much and it's driving me a little crazy.
I couldn't ask for a better nurse, @farm-0mom has been unbelievable attending to my every need.
When I was reading some of the comments on your latest post I saw that you mentioned your location. (Puerto Vallarta, where you would fly into, in a city called Bucerias.)
@farm-mom and I were just talking about your adventure and were wondering exactly where you were located.
Well, we now know and after surfing around a little bit, Bucerias looks like a great place and with it being so close to the beach, you never know. There is no other place Robin would rather be than sitting on the beach, reading a book, or having a worm in the water.
You guys would fall in love with Bucerias! No doubt in my mind.
Glad you're feeling better bud, keep resting and get to 100%! That way you can get down here faster, lol.
Wow. Probably this is the first Hive account that I see passing the $100 000 USD value. The value of my Hive account is currently barely above $2000 USD. Currently its estimated value is $2022.78 USD.
I am also very grateful and happy for the Hive blockchain. Hopefully I will get out of the financial discrimination with it. I live with multiple disabilities under the local minimum wage in Hungary.
Merry Christmas to everyone.
Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
Thanks bud! You too!!! Go Hive!
Congrats and continued success on bar and your Hive.
Thanks so much!
Hell yea man!! this yea is fuckin amazing!! I first joined hive at the beginning of this year, and it was my first experience in crypto! Im so glad I found it before losing my money on some scam like doge!
Congrats and good on ya for finding us man, but more importantly, sticking around. That seems to be the toughest thing for most people.
SHIIT!! now you can tell her about 120k
Lol, it's been fluctuating a lot lately...I ain't complaining.
A bar in Mexico? Now you're speaking my language..
Yeah buddy! Come down for a visit!!! My bar will sponsor a hole at your course, I'll check out those options online when I have a free minute.
The gf and I are in the passport process now.. where are y'all at in Mexico?
Nice man, get that done so you can leave when you want to :)
I'm just north of Puerto Vallarta, where you would fly into, in a city called Bucerias.
Hey @intothewild,
Do you mind supporting the HiveBuzz proposal for 2022 so our team can continue its work next year?
That would be much appreciated! Your feedback, if any, is welcome of course. Thanks.
