When work just doesn't work for you anymore
I have a very strong LOVE-HATE relationship with December. You know that last week right before work closes? Well, this is about the same time your brain shuts down and thoughts of vacation and doing nothing begin to fill those empty crevasses within your head. I'm at that stage right now :) this week Friday is the last day of work for the year. Heading to the sea next week Monday for Christmas and New Years.
Here is now the hate - Those greedy sons of guns hike the price of everything up so it is that much harder to travel and actually live in December. Fuel went up by R0.75 last week, that is a massive amount. The saddest thing is that the only people who suffer from this are those who are too poor to afford the December increases. The next Hate is that even though all these things are increasing in price our monthly salaries still stay the same.
Does this happen everywhere in the world?
What are somethings you have to do to put food on the table? This photo was taken in Uganda, talk about luxury travel haha.
This is where a need for new and fast-growing incomes becomes so important. This is where those who are smart enough will vest much of their time in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Steem so that when your employer can no longer afford to pay you, you will have other sources of income that did not take large sums of investment capital.
Sadly I was new to Steem at the time and was powering up my SBD if I had not done that I would of made about R5000 in just a month of blogging. That is currently 1/3 of my salary. Just imagine if I had spent as much time blogging as I did working?? It is my deep hope and prayer that we continue to see SBD rise in value so that job creation will continue as more and more individuals join the Steemit platform.
