Hello all! Another week and it's time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by . This also doubles as my weekly progress report for #saturdaysavers, which is a fun little group that tries to motivate everyone to save and reach their goals. I'm going to look at the progress I've made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I'm looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we'll get to that too.

Let's start with my Hive goals.
๐ป๐ผ๐ฑ๐ธ
My current goal is 25k Hive.
This past week I made 188.140, bringing me to 20779.87 total Hive Power. That's 83.1% of my goal!
Hmm....I'm thinking maybe starting next week I should try to remember to take a photo before I go to bed, so we'd have seven days in the graph and not only six. Then again, I'm probably overthinking it. The trend line tells the story, eh, so it's all we really need.
Math time. 25k - 20779.87 gives us 4220.13. Divided out by the days till the first of next year, we get 150.7 Hive needed per day to reach 25k by that point. This is just spiraling out of control, isn't it? I'm kind of curious what it will be next week. 200? As the song goes, If I were a rich man...
Needless to say I don't get nearly that kind of income on my Hive posts so I won't be making that. But we'll see how close I get.

It is a tale of three tokens. Last week I hit my LGN goal, so we can mark that out. LGN Goal 2k. That leaves PIMP & BRO.
My overall goal here is 1000 BRO to make it into dragon club and 100k PIMP to make it to... whatever we call the top PIMP rank.
Last week I earned 0.189 BRO, which puts me at 522.81 total or 52.3% of my goal. I also earned 256.7857 PIMP from posting, putting me at 60679.42 โ 60.7% of my goal.
Seeing as how my PIMP earnings are decent whereas I earn very little in BRO means I will probably hit that goal first, but who knows. I check in with the market everyday, so if I see any dips I'll be sure to buy either one.

I've never formally made any silver stacking goals, I guess. I just try to get a little as I canโevery week if possible. I don't have a lot of space, so crypto will always be my major holding, but a little silver can never be a bad thing. I guess maybe if I get enough then I'll upgrade to gold in order to keep the space requirements low? I may have to research that sometime. But anyway...
This past week I picked up these three pieces.
If you've been following along, you'll remember that I wanted to buy two silver eagles for the years of my sons' births. I've been looking on yahoo auctions for a few months. Sorry I forgot to answer you comment about that last week : I don't think Yahoo does auctions in other markets anymore, but they still do in Japan and it's a very popular service; Yahoo Japan is half owned by Softbank (I think) so that may be why the service here is a little different.
Anyway, silver eagles do sometimes pops up, but not the dates I wanted. Finally, though, I found the ones I wanted! I'll write more about them in another post this week.
The Pac-Man piece was at the coin shop. He said someone just sold it last week. I thought it was unique and kind of interesting, so I bought it.
All in all, that makes an addition of three ounces to my silver stack. The silver eagles kind of don't count towards the stack, as I plan on holding them for my kids to then give them after they have grown. But at the same time, if the price of silver goes nuts, I wouldn't hesitate to sell them for a gain and figure out something else to save for the kids.

That stuff out of the way, let's do our SBI drawing! If you are new here, I give away 5 shares of SBI every week to commenters on this post. If I get under five commenters, I try to divide it up as best as possible, and if I get over five, I do a random drawing.
So how about this week? Let's see... last post we had comments from
.
And the winners are...
Congratulations, everyone!

And forward we go! It was a strong week. Let's see how this coming one goes! Let's all remember: if we play the long game, we will be successful! See you next week!
