RE: What is the value of HBD in my hometown?

in LeoFinance3 years ago

It's interesting to read this @khaleesii as where I live 1000 HBD wouldn't even last 2 months to live, but I have known so many people all my time on steem (before) and now hive from Nigeria, places in south and central America who can majorly supplement their life with hive earnings, and d'you know what? I am happy that it's the case that people can be lifted up by any measure out of poverty through hive.

I used to be a dolphin and I got chased by the debt collectors and had to sell 95% of my hive stake to pay off a few years' electricity and gas payments. But that's just life, I wouldn't have been able to get out of that bad situation without the earnings I had made from steem/hive.

I wish you all the best, and I'm glad I saw your post in the dreamport PYP show 🙂

Sort:  

1000 HBD is huge for me, especially since I don't spend so much, I can't imagine how life is outside Nigeria, I know it isn't as affordable and hive isn't as huge as it is to us.

Also, that is sad to hear, pretty crazy too, I am considering powering down to pay for some things but, I am still thinking about it.

I guess I am lucky to have that option if at all.

Thank you for reading and visiting.

You're welcome khaleesii. We're one global community here on hive, I truly believe that and by sharing our lives, our struggles and successes, we enrich each other 🙂
