You have a nice payout coming due in two days. I was planning on removing the delegation when after you received the next payout.

You have probably figured out that having HIVE POWER increases the value of your upvote. When you have $500 HP, your upvote is worth $0.02. Hive sweeps the votes on a post with under 0.02 as dust and sends notifications when upvotes are worth more than 0.02. So, $500 in HP is a sweet point.

The problem is that buying HIVE is like juggling with knives. If you catch the wrong end of the knife you can get hurt.

Coingecko shows that the price of HIVE was around $0.35 when you joined HIVE 15 days ago. It has since dropped to $0.27. So, if you bought $500 in HIVE when you joined, you would have lost a good third of your investment.

When I joined, the price of HIVE was $4.00. The people who bought HIVE at the time lost 90% of their investment. I did not buy HIVE until this year.
