RE: Back to the Grind.

in LeoFinance2 years ago

So many things I can relate to in this post.

The current financial insecurity is wide spread and due to different circumstances, I too am wondering if I should get a real world job again.

I love that when you knew you needed one, it just showed up easy peasy, but also a result of your past efforts and relationships. (so not really luck rather results)

Redoing the plan. As the market got wilder in the bull run, and my bags looked big, I got a little wild with some of my long shots and holding as well.

I guess I have a lot of bags to hold through this season or I will probably consolidate some over time.

Ah well, I did at least take a few profits. amd have a decent amount of USD ready to use when the price seems right.

Hey WU,

Yeah, it was time for me to get back into the real world. I'd had in my head for a while to apply where I did, and then when my former colleague appeared there as a manager, I figured it was time. We worked together well in the past, and she knows my work ethic and responsiblness (if that is a word). A good reminder to not burn bridges.

Something else I'm aware you can relate to, I have both my mother, and my mother-in-law going through cancer battles at the moment, so financial stuff has been put back into a bit of perspective currently. I hope things are going ok for your family.

I was bad at taking profits... Not next time around.

The thing about the cancer is that it eats away at body and finances. We've been doing this for almost 2 years now. Missed work, medical bills, and then our off label drugs and supplements, it's a slow drain on what at one time felt like we had plenty, combine that with inflation and it gets pretty stressful. We are doing okay, but watching the accounts in both fiat and crypto go down, while prices are rising makes me pretty nervous.

Regarding the cancer he is on week 6 of 12 for this round and hopefully we get some scans after that and know how things are going.

Well let's remind each other to take profits this next round!

I wish you all the best. Hopefully when those next scans come around, it is good news.

The other thing I forgot to put in my post, I wish I'd stacked up a bit more precious metals. Everything else in the world it seems is crashing (except for prices of food and living expenses, which are crashing up). But gold and silver look strong. Should have payed more attention to the stackers.

Take care WU.

Also sending your family support and my thoughts are with you. I wouldn't wish the cancer battle on anyone! There are a lot of good resources out there if you look for things that can be used with or without the traditional chemo course. Depends of course on type and stage.

Yeah, the wife and I are looking around at options. My mum is in pretty good shape, and likely to come through all ok. The MIL however, may be a very different outcome. Still waiting there for test, but things are not looking good right now.
