What's On Your Mind 2023

Once I had BTC worth 50 USD given by a friend for building his website. During that time BTC was around 20k USD I think. Within a very short time it went up to 65k, and I had set it to sell at 60k. Anyway it tripled my 50usd. Then it was in usdt, and I think I later bought another coin. Not sure.
Unfortunately I had no way of cashing it. It should still be there now may be not even worth 50 :sweat_smile:. I tried to give it to someone free, and he thought I was trying to trick him.
The bottom line is: itā€™s just numbers. It doesnā€™t matter what the number is.

I had some some dollars of Bitcoin leftover from ermā€¦ā€œa seed purchaseā€ a few years ago, and then got nervous along with others a year or so ago and cashed out (which took some doing).

Man! Right time in and right time out! Too bad I didnā€™t have more than the ā€œsomeā€ dollars!

Nice!

I had some guys trying to ge me into Bitcoin when it was around $20 per share. I decided not to and thatā€™s one of my big regrets. Damn. I could have turned a $10K investment into $20 million.

Sucks to be me.

Yeah, I know (both for this and prior post) = First World Problems!

LoL.

The biggest income is earned by the YouTube gurus who teach you how to trade cryptocurrency. And they post an affiliate link too, which gives them a commission for a lead. Much profitable than actual crypto trading. :rofl:

I donā€™t want to hear about atmospheric rivers, bomb cyclones, mudslides, evacuations and lightning strikes. Where are my oysters!

The results of the final exam of the National Tourist Guide Lecturer license course is out. I have passed it, no repeat modules.
Now I must get a police clearance certificate and apply for the national guide identity card. It might take another month.
Little by little Iā€™m getting there. One step at a time.
Great relief this is.

Thanks everyone. More than anything else, the boarding, meal, and travelling costs are almost over. One last time I must find around 50 dollars as the license fee, and thatā€™s all.
Then I must look for an agent who needs my service. Anyway Iā€™m planning to get my own groups here rather than working for someone else.

Itā€™s not a first world problem. Itā€™s a universal problem :sweat_smile:

Whoā€™s got the power to play with the master headline banner? @sck? @hungryonion?


Instead of ā€œHungry Onionā€ it now says ā€œFully Satiated Onionā€ and (smaller print, hard to read) ā€œNo need to discuss anymoreā€.

Iā€™m hoping itā€™s just a temporary 2nd of April joke rather than an impending shutdown or some suchā€¦

So it was to be the final step of getting the license. To hand over the certified copies of the documents. I prepared them, checked them, and handed them over. They checked them and accepted.
At 7.10pm I get a call, "your national ID copy is not ā€˜true copyā€™ certified!
I must go there tomorrow.:sweat_smile: It never ends.

Anybody tried this kind of potato prep? Looks like it might be pretty good.
