All work no play, they say makes jack a dull boy, I guess I should just Input @vickoly over jack, because my lifestyle in one channel towards investment and anything that brings in more money than indulging in pleasurable activity, but in a situation when I'm been given $20 to lavish on myself through the weekend, I literally ran out of thought because I'm more of a reserve and indoor kind of person, who's hardly engage in any pleasurable activities, so how much is $20 to me and how will I channel the money in making my weekend a remarkable one?
So for me to take you through my ordeals of spending the $20, I'll first need to convert it to my local currency, that's naira, although it's saddening to behold how poorly our currency is doing, as it's basically losing it value at every given opportunity, and these as lead to inflation and high cost of living within the country, although we who earn in dollars and cryptocurrency seems to have an edge over this recession, because when we covert those crypto to fiats, it's become to huge amount in our local currency.
Presently $1 is equal to ₦650, that mean $20 is equal to ₦13,000, that's a huge amount of money, Because it's almost half of the country minimum wage for civil servant, so to me it seems to huge to be spend within just one weekend, but below is how I'll be spending the ₦13,000.
As an introvert who cherish being indoor, and love eating, then food will be the first thing in my mind, and since I don't love eating outside, then I'll be preparing a delicious fried rice and chicken, then purchase a cold pepsi to flush the food down my stomach, so how much does will it cost me to prepare these meal?
- 1 cup of rice ₦300
- 1 kilo or chicken ₦1000
- Ingredients ₦1000
- 2 Pepsi ₦300
- Total ₦2,600
That mean I'm left with ₦10,400
By the time I'm done cooking, I'll purchase some fuel, so I can get some fresh air on my body while eating, and when I finish eating, I'll switch on my playstore, open my favourite game GTA, and play till I'm bored, then I can proceed into playing football or God of war, for someone who love being by myself, playing video games is one of the ways I keep myself busy and derive pleasure, so how much does it cost me to do this, since I already have the play station?
- Fuel 10liters ₦2000
With fuel money out of the fund, then I'll be left with ₦8,400
That's about all I counted as a pleasurable and a day well spent, but to make good use of the remaining ₦8400, I'll most likely invest fund back into dollar or just buy a cryptocurrency like hive, so to achieve that, I'll take a motorcycle to and from bank and save the left one into my bank account after which I'll transfer it to binance and convert to my desired crypto.
- Motorcycle ₦400
- Bank Deposit ₦8000
With that I've fully spent the $20, but in analysing how much hive I'll get from the ₦8000, I check binance exchange now, and I realize with that ₦8000 I'll be getting 7.1hive, which I can power up to increase my stake on the blockchain and as well give me an edge in earning more curation rewards.
Thanks so much for staying with me thus far, this write-up was inspired by @hive-learners Community feature topic, you can read more about it here, and hopefully share your opinion on how you'll be spending your $20, till me meet in the next blog post, have a blessed and productive day.
