Although people say that money cannot give joy, and I understand the deep meaning behind that statement, sometimes I find it odd because money is a whole lot of happiness and joy to me. Currently, what is giving me joy is money.
You know that kind of situation where you are in deep debt and suddenly you hit a big jackpot that helps you solve the debt issue with ease. Isn't that supposed to be a source of joy, excitement, and happiness to the person? Of course it should be.
This may look like an exposure, but I do not mind saying it, and I will not attend to any DM that comes from this. Lol π.
Around the beginning of this month, I came across something online and decided to join the people doing it, and little did I know it would turn out to be a big hit.
You know, this Hive platform has been very funny to a lot of us with regard to poor earnings due to the dip as well, and it has been very hard to earn $1 HBD per day. In fact, my weekly payout has drastically reduced to $1 or $2. This has been discouraging because I use the money I make from here to support myself very well.
But just at the beginning of this month, I launched into the stuff I found online, which is about a simple βplayβ on an app. At first, I had my withdrawal after about a week, which was $5, and that was the minimum withdrawal. Gosh, I was so happy because it would take me up to two weeks to get there on Hive, considering the current dip.
I moved from earning $5 a week to earning almost $35 a week. Tell me why I should not be joyful.
The money coming in every week may look small compared to what other people earn online, especially the whales and well-connected users on this platform, but this money is a whole lot for me, and my heart has been freed from the financial pressure it usually faces every now and then.
At this present stage of my life, there is no way I will be making $30 a week from a side hustle that does not cost me anything and not be filled with joy. So this is the situation right now, and I hope the process continues and never stops until next year. By then, the only thing that might try to steal my joy once in a while would probably be a situation of sickness, either affecting a loved one or myself.
But the thing is, such situations do not last long, and although I wish to keep earning that amount regularly, if it eventually stops, that is also fine.
Thanks for reading.
