The very first time i use my money to purchase something that will help me greatly in life was when i bought a new phone in jan 29 in the year 2018 to make my work easier on the hive blockchain...
I joined the steemit blockchain on december 2017 but before then i was a teacher and i didn't have any serious thing i was using my phone to do except to chat, so i really didn't have much issue with the phone i was using until i joined the hive blockchain...
It is always world war between me and the phone whenever i try posting because it just keeps hanging and most time i will spend 7 hours just to get a post done, because whenever it hangs, i have to wait for some minutes for it to respond so i can keep typing....
Amidst the pain of waiting to type and post, i bare it all and keep blogging but it was not easy, i could not comment well on others post because i just give up on that whenever i have issue dropping a comment or the phone hangs along the way but i don't fail to drop a post and it was not daily, sometimes 3 times in a week or less...
I had a plan and that was using the money i earned from blogging to buy a new phone but it got to an extent that my old phone could not take it anymore and it becomes harder to post too, i had to check my wallet to check how much i have in there...
I cashed out the money and i was having around 21 thousand naira but when i got to the slot, it was not enough to buy the phone i desire....
Out of the phones they showed me, i fell in love with the techno L8 lite but the price was 29 000 naira and i have got no more money on me.....
When i joined hive then, i had a mentor who guide me on how to post and other things i need to know, he is @pearlumie but unfortunately he is no longer active.. He was the one i called that lend me money to complete the payment of the new phone....
That was my first gift from the hive blockchain and it helps to boost my career too, my phone no longer hangs, i could communicate with others both on the chain and also on the chat app easily.... No more pains and stress for hours just to post ....
That was when i realize a good tool is necessary to do a good job!

You have come a long way on this blockchain of a thing and it's clear what makes you outstanding among lots of bloggers I have met.
21,000 was quite a lot of money then and I can tell that the new phone did make a huge difference for you.
yea it was not easy for me to get that money back then, it was the money i earned for more than a month of blogging.... how time flies and the phone was the start of something new
A good tool is necessary for a good job indeed. While reading your post, I realize mine is similar to this too which I will be posting soon. The issue of a phone hanging can be daunting and that was what I went through.
oh, hope you have bought a new phone? or do i need to borrow you some hive so you can post about me in 5 years time lol, am not kidding😊
😂😂 If I told you I haven´t bought, won´t you scold me? Lol
I bought and even changed to another one almost two years ago. Still planning on getting another one before April so it doesn´t reach 2yrs for me 😑
lol boss lady🙌, you don't like when you use a phone for more than 2 years? my phone is now 4 years old and still counting,i don't change phone until the one am using die by itself lol
Not like that. My phone´s camera is not clear as before and I want a better one with a good camera and I wouldn´t mind if it lasts me 10 years 😂
This is me and my phone currently. Whenever I am on the block chain, it hangs. It takes so much time for blog pages to open, it takes time for messages and everyother thing to get uploaded. In fact, it takes time with everything. And it can be very draining that I'll just give up even when I plan to go on a commenting spree. It's even worse on the discord channels. Ha!
Meanwhile, good for you!
I'm currently saving to get a better phone. If I have to excel on here, then I need to up my game.
Been a while.
Greetings!
yea you need a new phone hun
i can lend you some hive to get yourself a new phone, then you can pay back weekly or anyhow it is convenient for you, you need a good tool to thrive on the hive blockchain. what do you say?
Wow!!
This is so thoughtful of you. I appreciate this so much.
I'll hit you up on discord please.
Thank you!
no problem, will be expecting you
Wow! You are really a pro in the blblock chain, really no wonder you are outstanding, all hail the king😁
I just got a phone too, part of the cost being my earning from the block chain, its really the best investment at the moment, having a wahala phone can give someone high bp.
lol i hail thee madam dee😁
its really the best investment at the momentAn investment that will ten times in the coming months, you took the right decision hun❤️
The phone should start farting dollars asap!
Lol🤣, it should o
Even though my other phone didn’t take 7 hours to come back to life it still annoyed me a lot😂. It made it in such a way I would easily get annoyed with any thing that I did cause it will lag until I get totally bored.
The battery was horrible plus the very stupid network.
Mehn I really suffered until I couldn’t take it anymore and I had to buy a new one.
The oboe showed you sheeje 😂. Am sure it was tired of your constant pressing and pressing lol.
The joy of using a fast phone 😂. It’s a whole new feeling and it feels very great. It makes you want to use the phone the whole day.
it seems you can relate well with my story lol
i feel horrible whenever i am using the old phone and sometimes i do feel like smashing it on the ground, i felt relieved and happy when i bought a new phone
😂😂haha Investor no go fit use bomb phone na.
🤣
Congratulations! Well deserved :)
thank you
Omo you've been there e don ta o
Anyways it's good to make use of our money for something that will bring more money that's my believe
And some people are not like that because they believe they will see more and that will make them so spend the money lavishly on a something that doesn't worth it
the journey has indeed been long but it still feels like this is just the beginning, imagine us still blogging in 10 years time which is exactly what is going to happen😊
And some people are not like that because they believe they will see more and that will make them so spend the money lavishly on a something that doesn't worth itthat is the difference between the rich and the poor...
The poor spend on liabilities and the rich spend on asset.....
Indeed! Having the right tools is very important in effectively and efficiently doing our work(s). I also used to encounter the frustration that comes with not being able to do your work properly because you don't have the right tool. Mine was a clunky laptop that always freezes.
hope you were able to change it, i once had a laptop without a back up too which made me kind of hate using laptop that time, but then when i changed it, i realized laptop is the best for online work....
Yes, I eventually changed it.
Indeed. Mobile is good but the screen is small which makes it near impossible to do some kind of works on it.
Seriously I love what you used to your money for, one can just say you invested instead, because the money was not really used but deposited to earn more. Some will go for irrelevant stuffs forgetting that tomorrow is bigger than today.
I can relate very well with phones like that, I guess it was an itel product🤣 boss you are really patient, if were someone else all the post would have to wait until a Moses comes for it's rescue🤣🤣
you get it right, it was an itel phone lol
if were someone else all the post would have to wait until a Moses comes for it's rescue🤣🤣This is the mistake some people do, because instead of them to take the first step, they are busy waiting for someone to help them, if you don't help yourself, no one will help you, when i made up my mind to buy the phone, i got help from a friend doing well on the platform....
Hmmm! Help doesn't come when we sit down and fold our arms, it is always attracted by our zeal and resilience. Seriously you tried a lot patiently using the phone in that condition until you got a new one.
we have been hustling from day 1 , so our hustle got to pay someday, every hustler has a pay day😊
That's right, I strongly believe that too.. more grace sir ❤️❤️💕
Wow.. that is really nice.
You been here for sometime tho.
But either ways, I love your consistency and hard work, many should have left or perhaps wait till they get a better phone, but you didn’t. That is a true passion even through the difficult.
I am happy you got a new phone and less struggles. Congratulations.
Hive as truly help a lot.
thanks dear, yea many people would have cash out and use the money for something else, but i knew i needed the phone more than any other thing and i am glad i made that decision .....
Wow, it's a good decision to use your initial earnings to buy a smartphone. It's like an investment, and now you're earning from it :))
!PIZZA
yes i have earned more than what i use to purchase the phone, one of the best investment ever😊
I gifted $PIZZA slices here:

wow, such a long journey on blockchain, I also started to know that since 2017 it's just that I wasn't too focused because I didn't have a definite goal yet, and during hive you also have a mentor who is definitely very valuable for you, so you can be like now this and buying some items from the hive like your new phone of course these things are very useful for the progress of your hive congrats on your achievement
Agba yahoo blogger lol, cash app wa oh lol, it was nice seeing your enthusiasm to do more on the blockchain, now you are og you command money day in day out lol welldone bro we both bought phone lol...

L7 lite was a big phone then, i can only relate how motivated you will be by such earning.

I guess we all got a first gift from the block chain.
That's so sweet.
