How my wife warmed to the time I'm spending on steemit.

in #life8 years ago

I keep talking to my wife about steem and I can see by the look on her face she doesn't get it. Computers and such are just not her thing, she nods and smiles before returning her attention to the TV. It's a reverse of when she starts going on about whatever TV show she is watching and talks about them to me. It is on such things that marriages are built, an ability to look interested in things that you have no interest in.

So recently the wife has looked more interested in steemit as I've traded SBD and put money into our bank account. It's strange how money in the hand can make a person sit up and take notice of steemit. As I mentioned today that the price of steem had risen to $2 she actually said
'Thats a good thing isn't it, it means I get more money.'

Exactly the same here. It doesn't matter which crypto currency I talk about whether it is Wikileaks hiding information within the Bitcoin blockchain or a content based blockchain like Steem, or even IOTA. "Mmh, ok."

Until I put some money on the bank account or we just go to the movies and I say "sponsored by my cryptocurrency trading skills". :-)

LOL! You would have had me at that awesome barbeque!

'Thats a good thing isn't it, it means I get more money.'

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAh

It is hard to explain Steem as a crypto, the blockchain, and the complex token system here to folks that aren't as tech savvy as this community tends to be.

But more $$$ in the pocket?

Everybody understands that!

Hahahaha, oh yes. I can relate to this truly! It's funny that isn't it?

I'm just waiting for her time watching TV to turn a profit for us.

Lol, yes me too. As we speak she is working hard at it hehe

Think I have nearly convinced my husband to join. Think him seeing that finally my wasted years on social media could pay off, did it :)
